LONDON, Dec. 2.—(Bulletin.)—Special dispatches to the Evening Star late today said that the armistice arranged between King Constantine and Admiral Du Fournet had failed, and the rioting had been resumed. The dispatches were dated August Friday, 7:45 a.m. ed here, the Greek King agreed to deliver over to the allied naval commander six mountain batteries, and in return Du Fournet agreed to withdraw the allied troops from the city pending the result of the reference of the agreement to the allied government.

The Franco British artillery has begun a bombardment against the Royalists' position on the hills south of Athens, and the allied naval forces have apparently failed in one attack.

LONDON, Dec. 2.—Following a night of rioting in the outskirts of Athens, King Constantine and Admiral Du Fournet today reached a temporary agreement that served to relax the tenseness of the situation.

Colner, a tobacco planter, applied at the court house in Danville, Va., for a marriage license. Conner carried a shotgun, which he was bringing to town to have re- paired, and the clerk of the court, Otis Bradley, misunderstanding Conner's request, filed out a hunting license. On Virginia hunting licenses a full description of the hound is inscribed, and the clerk asked Conner the color of his hair, his weight, the color of his eyes and whether or not he had other distinguishing marks about his body. "I don't see what that's got to do with it, anyhow," remarked Conner, somewhat taken back at these proceedings. "The new law requires it," curtly answered the clerk. Without reading the paper handed to him, Conner left the court house, called for his prospective bride. Miss Lou Craddock, and they went to the home of the Rev. G. W. Spooner, a Methodist minister, and handing the minister the hunting license, asked him to marry them. The minister broke the news gently to Conner, and in a towering rage he returned to the court house with his bride-to-be and demanded his money back, elevating that the clerk was responsible to the court. With hunting Beens bears a registered hunter and the clerk would not destroy the license nor return the fee. Conner finally gifted another dollar and got a marriage license.

It is declared here that the situation will likely be cleared. Fighting took place between the French sailors and Greek Royalists, and between the Royalists and the troops of the Venizelos faction and a number of casualties resulted. According to information from Greek sources and supported by Central News dispatches, the encounters "have been terminated" and the negotiations were proceeding. If the official advises confirm these reports, and there has been a partial suspicion to the allied demands, it means the complete reversal of the Credit government's determination "to reject all attempts" of the allies to seize a surrender by arms. He came to Martinsburg to play ball and his amiable disposition and ability as an athlete soon won for him friends. He finished last season with Gettysburg, and again came to the Gettysburg, returning to this city after the season closed and again resumed his duties at the "Y." Before coming to this section he was a student at Swarthmore College, where he won honors as an athlete and was assistant to the physical instructor of that institution for some time. This morning a large number of friends accompanied him to the C. V. depot, and said good-bye, wishing him great success in his new field of endeavor.

CHURCH Former Secretary of State Will Lecture on "Fundamentals" Thursday Night. Hon. William Jennings Bryan has finally consented to come to Martinsburg and lecture for the benefit of the Young Men's Christian Association. The general secretary, Guy H. McKee, had several conferences with him over the long distance telephone yesterday morning, and he assured him that he would be in Martinsburg on Thursday evening, December 7th, and deliver the lecture without fail.

The former secretary of state, and three times Presidential candidate, will lecture on "Fundamentals" which consists of three strong thoughts. Mr. Bryan has devoted a quarter of a century to the study of these three subjects, and all can depend upon hearing the greatest lecture ever delivered in Martinsburg. The lecture will be given in the First United Brethren church, on North Queen street. This is the largest auditorium in Martinsburg, seating from 200 to 300 more people than any other.

LONDON, Dec. 2. (Bulletin)—Stubbornly resisting the Teutonic pressure on their lines before Bucharest, the Roumanians have retaken and firmly hold Komena and Gostinaris this afternoon, according to late Petrograd advices. Russian Forces Battering. LONDON, Dec. 2.—The Russian forces are battering with giant blows on the 250-mile front of Dobrudja, and southwest of Bukowina in an effort to smash the Teuton lines menacing Roumania. All dispatches indicate In the meantime the Russiatos, sweeping forward, have taken the western section of the Cernoyoda bridge, and a terrific battle is raging there and at Komena. Gostinaris was carried by the Teutons yesterday. Lloyd-George Leaving. Rumors that David Lloyd-George is packing up his belongings as minister of war, and printed in a London evening newspaper today, supported the report that he is preparing to leave his post. A number of other newspapers declared today that the cabinet is facing a crisis, which will likely result in a dissolution. Considerable popular dissatisfaction with Asquith was recently expressed editorially. SPEAKER CLARK IS FOR REFORM Statesman Says He Would Reduce Oratory in the House and Have Voting Machines. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. Speaker Clark says that if congress wanted to clean the legislative slate and go home next March 4 he gladly would join in a movement to eliminate useless oratory by cutting down gallery space and abolishing the Congressional Record and to introduce voting machines. "It isn't difficult to see that the galleries and the Record cause an awful waste of time and money," the speaker declared today as he paused in his efforts to outline a plan whereby a session's work might be done in legislative days. "Any time that the galleries are full the orators on the floor are posing and wasting time. And everybody knows there are any number of congressmen who talk for the Record a great deal more than is necessary. "The Record isn't necessary. The English House of Commons has none. A journal is kept. Dr. Johnson used to write it after the day's proceedings were over. He simply recorded who spoke and which side they were on. "I haven't much hope, though, that I'd receive much support if I started to make a fight for smaller galleries and no Record, so I won't start it. But there is hope that the present method of faking roll calls will be abolished. It is archaic and a time waster." The speaker also favors reducing the house from 435 to 300 members and holding it to that number. REORGANIZATION OF PROGRESSIVE PARTY Contemplated by Foes of Roosevelt and Perkins—Conference in January. NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—Political foes of Col. Theodore Roosevelt and Geo. W. Perkins contemplate a reorganization of the Progressive party, it was LONDON, Dfc. 2.—The Russian forces are battering with giant blows on the 250-mile front of Dobrudja, and southwest of Bukowina in an effort to smash the Teuton Jines menacing Roumania. All dispatches indicate that great masses of men have been poured into the Balkan death mold. Vienna admitted the ferociousness of the Slav attacks, but again declared that the results are not justifying the expenditure of men and munitions. Nevertheless, Petrograd advices indicate that the Teutons at Kirlibaba are expected to surrender soon, while the flanking movement directed against the Jablonitza pass is fast becoming a most serious menace to the German positions in Roumania. On the west front last night all was quiet. In the Macedonian theatre there were several important local engagements with the advantage with the allies. learned today. Acting National Chairman Matthew Hale is to call a national conference to meet in St. Louis in January. Invitations are to be sent to Cambridge Colby, J. M. Parker, J. A. Hopkins, Judge Ben Lindsey and others who declined to comply with the wishes of Roosevelt and Perkins and accept Charles E. Hughes as a presidential candidate. Among those understood to be conducting a realignment are O. N. C. Kimball, of West Virginia, and R. G. Carey, of Maryland. John R. Taylor, who is conducting the preliminaries for New York state, says: "We shall probably confer at Albany early next month. This will be merely instrumental to the national conference at St. Louis later in the month. "At the time of our conference, Col. Roosevelt will be in the Fiji Islands, I understand. As for Mr. Perkins, he will not be invited so far as I am concerned. His check book will not be wanted or needed. "We are ready for the cooperation of Hiram W. Johnson, of California, if he deserts the party now, he will lose his hold on the tremendous following behind him on the Pacific coast."

Shades of Sharon! Cole Please, former governor of South Carolina, has been charged with numerous things, both mean and good, but just listen to him anent the Negro: "My vote once made George W. Murray congressman instead of his white opponent. I have always tried to do justice to the Negro, and have never insulted a colored woman. I advise you students to aspire. You are coming to higher things. They can't hold you back despite what I or any other man may say?" The kind of school house this paper has been contending for during the past twenty years, is being built and will be as good as the best in this state. Mr. C. E. Kent of this city, is the architect, Mr. F. O. Trump, of Kearneysville, is the up-to-date contractor and builder, and Mr. J. T. Smallwood, of Shenandoah Juction, the carpenter in chief. That the above named gentlemen are all experts, each in his respective line, is a fact patent to everybody who has seen them about their work. The building will stand on a foundation better than which, cannot be found in the city, the constructive work of Messrs. Ellis. History is weak and false and the efforts of men to strengthen the former and straighten the latter have utterly failed relative to the horrors of Belgium in Africa. It was the blackest, the lowest, the most brutish and hellish conduct ever wreaked on humanity by civilized and christianized inhumanity. If angels saw it, they bowed their heads in shame for what Belgium would have to reap, or God's declaration prove false. Did it prove false? No! and no! again. Has not Belgium been punished enough? No! Who doubts Abraham Lincoln's wisdom in seeing things with flash-lights of God's truth as to what must come to pass? When he said this country cannot stand half slave and half free it meant for all time. When he said the war would not end "till every drop of blood drawn from the black man's back by the white man's lasth shall have been repaid by the sword, holds good and true to every pledge from Genesis to Revelations. For millions and millions of years nations have been going from wicked civilizations to heathenism — nature's remedy of rest to grow a better people, just as resting the soil enriches it. Belgium's suffering to this day is light in comparison to the terrible atrocities she heaped on the poor inoffensive Africans in the Congo regions. If to pay the debt every Belgian must be enslaved by Germany, let it be done and amen. We have always allowed ignorance to palaver over and about a literal hell, but when educated sky-pilots indulge in it, it's time to kick. Any one who believes in a veritable devil and his hell fire of brimstone, can't love and serve a just and loving God without the fear of the devil. The hypocrisy, lying, stealing, deceiving, back-biting &e., is the worst and only devil to get rid of—and that devil is within man. God should be loved and served because and only because He is so just, kind, loving and good. It is possible that the better man is, the greater his temptations. To yield brings him condemnation, to overcome, reward! Hence the silly one who would do away with sin could merit no reward here or hereafter. The fear of God wants all to serve Him and means and can only mean that they don't want sin to get the better of them and fear it may. When sin—called Satan and the devil—tempted the son of God on the Mount, the glory and what pleased the Father, was, the Son told him to "get thee behind Me Satan," and the old fellow obeyed. That is our duty, no more, no less. What would the soil be without weeds and grass? What would man be without sin, or the devil to overcome? The "lazy, drunken, stealing, loafing, rapish Negroes of the South who have kept the white women in constant fear, and are a menace to the South's peace, industry and decency," want to leave there. What a pity for a section of the world, clean of all evils and wrongs as the sacred South is to be so imposed on. United States Senators have boasted how they "have lynched and shot the niggers." This has gone on so much and so long these Negroes and "niggers" decided to leave that sanctified soil and its white saints, to labor in the North and West, but the South is up in arms to keep them there. Negroes by hundreds have been arrested, and white men of the North and West who offer these colored men work, are warned to keep out of the South under the penalty of being arrested. A few days ago one thousand colored men went to the railroad station in Macon, Georgia, for the purpose of leaving that state, but the whites armed themselves and drove them away and defied them to leave. Does that look like they are "niggers, loafers, rapists and a menace to the South?" If all that has been said of them be true, surely they ought to be glad to see them go, and help to get rid of them. As it is, the world sees them as the South's slaves, robbed of their fights, and branded as above to embitter decency abroad to hate them, in order that they may use and abuse them. Negroes in large numbers are leaving the South for the North. Many are securing good positions. Those that are sober and responsible and know how to give an honest day's toil are holding their positions. The indolent, inefficient men, however, are soon discharged, become a burden to the Northern communities and bring reproach and humiliation, to thrillly colored citizens in communities where white people have not hitherto considered Negroes undesirables. The National League on Urban Conditions among Negroes urges the right-thinking Negroes of the South and everywhere to discourage the wholesale migration or shiftless people between any two points, be they North or South. The League also warns Negroes against fraudulent agents who are collecting employment fees and who disappear soon afterwards. Negro labor is in-demand. Use that fact to improve the efficiency of that labor by demanding - First, better wages where the wages of colored men are below the current wage; second, better working conditions so that your health will not be impaired by the work you do, third better living conditions both for yourself and family, so that your efficiency as a worker will not be impaired by living conditions which prevent proper rest and recreation to fit you for the day's labor, and base these demands on the faces that all these things will make your work more valuable to yourself and to your emplover and make for better feeling between the races. The National Urban League urges Negroes everywhere to take advantage of this great industrial opportunity to work in cooperation with their local neighbors whether North or South, for the improvement of conditions which will affect both races. - Eugene Kinckle Jones, Executive Secretary, National League on Urban Condition. Among Negroes. M'KINLEY'S WAR COST LESS BLOODSHED THAN WILSON'S PEACE By Theodore Roosevelt. Under President McKinley we had a war with Spain. Under President Wilson we are assured that we have had "peace" with Mexico. These are the words. Now for the deeds. During the war with Spain fewer Americans were killed by the Spaniards than have been killed by Mexicans during the present "peace" with Mexico. Let me repeat this. A greater number of Americans have been killed by Mexicans during these years, when we are officially informed that we have been at peace with them, than were killed by the Spaniards during our entire war with Spain. Moreover, when the war with Spain was through, it was through. But peace still continues to rage as furiously as ever in Mexico. Nor is this all. The instant effect of the outcome of the war with Spain was to put a stop to the dreadful butchery and starvation in Cuba and the Philippines, and the entry of both Cuba and the Philippines on a career of eighteen years of peace and prosperity such as they had never known before in all their checkered history. But during these three years of Mr. Wilson's "peace" the Mexicans themselves have been butchered by their own bandits steadily and without intermission; and Mexican women and children have died by thousands—probably by scores of thousands—of starvation and of the diseases incident to starvation. In other words, Mr. McKinley's war cost less than peace; and it reflected high honor on the American people; whereas Mr. Wilson's peace has been one of shame and dishonor for the American people, and one of ruin and bloodshed for the Mexicans. --- Helpfulness and Encouragement Urged by Mired P. Thom. CREDIT MUST BE IMPROVED Increase of Transportation Facilities Necessary to Secure Relief From High Cost of Living May Thus Be Provided For by the Railroad. Washington, Nov. 19, 1918. A new policy of government regulation based on temporary measures of help, stresses and protection hastened of injured persons off the railroad or pursuant to a law enacted at the time, pursued for a new law intensive. Advisory the authorities to witness on behalf of the public in the before the New York City police, with its instituted a general hospital to the problems of ballast pollution. "It is proposed by our point resolution of Congress" of the "one," "two, and three to promote and protect of the whole and least of the people, on the basis of our constitution, 20 years of experience of the White House, its policy and constitutional principles to promote The rights and concern of the white population is a permanent and enduring part of government. In another word, that the majority of the people is so the public that duty is to afford to the public the benefits on reasonable travel and other reasonable rates, and this must be carried out by any public interests with the consent." Certainty, Safety and Efficiency. All These contend that the real interest of the public is in being as good of certainty, safety and sufficiency of transportation facilities, rather than in rules. The first consideration of the public is to obtain transportation facilities. What the cost is, is in reality a second cost, or burden he must. Mr. T. was presented by ligerous of transportation facilities as a method of securing police from the high cost of living. "There have been less than 1,600 police of new, national construction in the United States during the past year," he explained, "than in any year since both exceed the period of the civil War and got the cost of living below normal in owning a share of supplies which might be concealed by securing access to new areas of production. Credit Must Be Improved. "This leads to the consideration as to whether railroad credit is as good as the public interest requires. It is impossible for milions to earn enough to supply the necessary new facilities from current revenue. They must be provided from credit. Investors cannot be coerced, but must be attracted." Among the conditions affecting railroad credit which date investors he mentioned the following: "First, railroad revenues are not controlled by investors, but are fixed and limited by governmental authority and not by any but by several governmental authorities, which do not recognize such facilities as assured results to investors and are uncontrolled." "Second, railroads cannot control and the government cannot and does not limit the expense account." "Fifth. The present system of resum- tion released on a policy of regulation and collection and not on a policy of the distribution and exercise of powers. "Fifth. The notice and order of disposition of the notice shall have authority over the disposition of interests and invoices a distribution for the amount of obli- gations from all of them and all of them. "Fifth. The notice must accept a subordination of obliqation or security with no reason of a supply of enclosure to support it. "Sixth. The notice produced a notice of an verbal consent upon enclosure of enclosure. "Sixth. The notice of enclosure is largely enforced by the civil instruc- tion of business courts. Look Forward Not Back "We need to be about what has caused the two gait conditions," said Mr. Thiem that were difficult about what the people need. The President has taken the thiem that we must look forward to this minute and 'make a fresh assessment of the upstandings' in order to deal helpfully and intelligently with the problem. Abuses are no more prevalent in the railroad business today than in any other business humourously conducted. The great question now is whether the existing system of regulation gives the public reliable assurance of sufficient present and future railroad facilities. "Those who oppose any change must make their appeal on the ground that the present systems assure the public of the continued adequacy of trans- portation facilities. If they do not, no instrument based on the desirability of the present dual system of regulation will be a option by public judgment. The question of "state rights" is not involved. If the regulation of transportation the fifth separately owned should fall upon our own ownership must follow, then all power of the states over all persons would disappear. "That we debate this question, then, not only may we biology or jeopardy as to the distribution of governmental power, but upon the brute issue of what the public interest requires in respect of the assurance of adequate transportation services."

Except as a Last Resort, and Then Only' In Case of Absolute Necessity.

GOOD ROADS and HOW TO GET THERE Modern Traffic Demands The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text or details. It appears to be a grayscale photograph of a road with trees on the side. Home has a great reputation as a road builder. Her roads consisted of three courses of stone several feet in thickness. Even with cheap or even slave labor Roman roads must have cost from $50,000 to $200,000 a mile. Though they lasted for a great many years we should not want Roman roads now-a-days at any price. They were rough and permitted only slow movement of traffic. The demand now is for an chastic ```markdown ``` or malleable road surface which is adapted to horse-drawn as well as fast-moving motor traffic. This is the factor mainly responsible for the constant increase in asphalt macadam or asphaltic concrete. In roads of this type, as in plain waterbound macadam, the stone is the wear-resisting portion of the surface. The purpose of the asphalt is to cement the stone together into a malleable mass—not to make an unyielding slab, as of cement concrete, but a road crust that will be dustless, waterproof and provide easy traction for both horse-drawn and motor vehicles. Life of Road Depends on Asphalt. It is easily seen that the life of the road will depend upon the life of the asphalt. If the asphalt cement loses its hold on the stone it begins to travel out, holes develop, water stands in them, and the road is doomed. The difference in asphalts mainly appears in the length of time they retain their full cementing power. Artificial or manufactured asphalts and the natural asphalts all analyze very much alike in the laboratory. The difference between them appears after they are put into a road or street. The natural asphalts have been exposed to the elements for centuries and so are not affected by heat, cold and water. The manufactured asphalts are for the first time exposed to Nature's destructive influences when they are put into a road and for this reason quickly lose the qualities that they show under laboratory analysis. A THE STORIES OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN SEVEN-YEAR-OLD ASPHALT MACADAM, NEW YORK. Natural asphalt costs a little more than asphaltals manufactured from oil, but the difference is only a few cents per yard. The inbor, stone and other construction costs are the same, and it is evidently a poor kind of economy, to "sive" a few cents on the cost of the asphalt when by se doing the whole investment may be wasted. According to government authorities, half the money spent in road building Elastic Elastic Roads is thrown away on experiments and faulty construction. There is no excuse for the continuance of this work for there is now enough experience to guide any community in selecting a type of construction that will give good service and in choosing equipment that will stand the wear and tear of traffic. Starting with these adding good drainage and good workmanship and there is no reason why good goods cannot now be laid at reasonable first cost and moderate in price. --- WAR!
