ALLIES DOAT THISK PEACE POSSIBLE NOW Supplementary Keply to Wilson ?et& Forth Promise of Long: War. Washington, Jan. 17.?The entente allies, in a note addressed by Arthur ,Tk" 'Amnion minictOT" f<l -fcsanour, di liisjj lutein luiu.uw., Ambassador Spring-Rice, and deliv ered today to the State department amplify their reply to President Wil son's peace note by explaining in de tail why they 'believe it impossible at present to attain a peace which will assure them such guarantees as they consider essential. The note also ex plains why the allies di-mand the ex pulsion of Turkey from Europe; res toration of Alsace-Lorraine to France, of Italia Irredenta to Italy and the otner territorial vuaugcs sci. ^viv?. Those who think the future peace of the world may be insured by inter national treaties and international laws, the note says, have ill learned the lessons taught by recent history.; After charging that German influence in Turkey had resulted in conditions j as barbarous and more aggressive than ; were known under Sultan Abdul' IHamid, and that had been shown 2 Germany can not be expected to re- 1 spect treaty obligations, Mr. Balfour c says: ; f "So long as Germany remains the z Germany which without a shadow of 1 justification overran and barbarously j 1 ill a country it was pledged to c defend, no State can regard its rights as secure if they have no better pro- i tection than a solemn treaty." Not Only Belgium. v Asserting that Belgium was not Germany's only victim, and that "neu trals were invited to note outrages j which accompanied its conquest." the j note recites the "reign of terror" at- j tendant upon Germany's method of j warfare, and in that connection says: I "The war staffs of the central pow-1 ers are well content to horrify the i world if at the same tim? they can terrorize it." ! c The people of Great -Britain, Mr.' j Balfour says, share President Wilson's . * ? _ * n * desire for peace, T)ut <10 not relieve ir. can be durable unless based on the success of the allied cause. Such a peace, it is areu?d, can not bp ex pected unless these three conditions are fulfilled: Existing causes of international unrest shall brt as far as possible re- e moved or weakened: the aggressive j a;ms and thp unscrupulous methods c of the central powers should fall into s disrenute among: th-i> own peoples; ( and. finallv. that behind international law ami "behind all treaty arrange Trent* for preventing or limitine hos tilities some form of international sanction should he de^V^d which would e-ive cause to the hardiest ag gressor. It is recognized that the conditions may be difficult of fulfillment, but thct belief is expressed that they are in general harmony with President Wil son's ideas. Only Sure Peace. The note declares confidence that so far 'as Europe ih concerned, none of the conditions can be satisfied, t c even imperfectly, unless peace is se- ] cured on the general lines indicated c by the allies' joint note. c ? t NOTICE OF FIXIL SETTLEMENT f c I will make a final settlement of the j estate of Ethan Shealy in the Probat^ j Court for -Newberry county, S.

J. K. Breedin, organizer of the prohibition campaign tor the referen lum and now State superintendent ot he Anti-Saloon league, in discussing ' he liquor situation from the prohibi ten standpoint, said yesterday: 'I have no fear or any exception In avor of Charleston. Mr. Fromberg cnows nothing of the sentiment in his State or he would not have tried igain what must be a futile effort for he gratification of Charleston's pam >^-ed notions of her special deserts. : f ever a town was persistently m?? cuided, that town is Charleston. But "vtr-romhc?ror v. ill find an >rganized prohibition opposition fo lis bill and eventually Charleston will jet in line and be glad cf it.'' [ Mav Compel Exclusion. Speaking of Mr. Richey's bill, Mr. Sreedin said: , "I favor very heartily a bill for j ibsolute prohibition. Senator DuRant' jas prepared a bill which is an ex-' rellent one and though it pr vides or a quart, the senator himself favors ibsolute prohibition. Many staunch )rohibitionists are willing for a quart imit. but with bills such as thos. >f Mr. Fromberg of Charleston and Senator Hughes of T'uion coming up. s it not unlikely that the whole pro hibition strength will swing to abso lute exclusion. The sentiment for 1 C ? 1 1 ll All ATA I-* D6 ?XCiUSJOIl CH ilil iivjuvjin ua.-j ;trons all alons, but recently it has ieveloped and manifested itself itronglv. Every effort to make spe cial exemption or to allow beer and vines only intensifies the demand for complete' elimination." Concerning the commissionership dea, Mr. Breedin said: "I favor the creation 'of the office >f prohibition commissioner, because 10 governor can devote the time to )ersonal observation, inquiry and co >peration which th* enforcement of he nquor laws peculiarly rt^unca. = The governor could not personally lirect the activities of the various n^perto^s of the State, as for ex imple the inspectors of foodstuffs. The governor has too many things to !o. Even so admirably disposed and Kirposeful a sovprnor a< Mr. Manning an not accomplish what a comnvs iioner should. becauce tli-? governor, f lecessity must rely upon repre ntations far from the scene, where commissioner should eive per-. lonal attention to the enforcement tnd the men and means employed. Vhat we ne^rl most. I think, is nor.; l multiplication of constables, but a 1 oning up of th:-> local means of en-; orcement. There are some places, vhieh require assistance from the; State and 6ome places ^Mch do not. ; Depends on. MncnstratAs. "The commissioner, if he be a man" >f tact and discretion and leadership, j fhould be able to accomplisii more" by | >ersonally meeting with sheriffs, nagistrates and rural policemen than ould possibly be accomplished by re ying upon constables sent in. The-! State needs a f ?w constables and the | ommissioner should be authorized !o! io what is necessary, but I strongly j >el>eve an active man of some ad- i lre?=s and abilitv can evok? a morel 'nthusiastic enforcement than we' lave naa so iar. ahq uj lurmci i '.is efforts let the governor have the j )ow^r to remove maeistrates.
