DIPLOMATS TALK In LONDON
Situation in Morocco Rapidly Nearing
Acute Stage.
FRANCE AND BRITAIN IN CONCERT
Germany May BE Given Additional

Iish VIII Object to Extension
of Kaiser'a Coast Line.


LONDON, July 26.-That Germany Will
get compensation in South Africa as re-
suit of its descent on Agadir and in re-
turn for the free hand which France Is
seeking in Morocco is conceded here, but 1t
is also clear that Great Britain is not
going to permit the establishment OF a
German naval base on the west coast Of
Africa II 1t can prevent 1t.
Great Britain's great trade routes to
South America, South Africa, India and
the far east all pass within striking dis
tance Of Agadir, Morocco, and generations
of British statesmen have maintained that
to allow a possibly hostile power to estab-
lish itself on the flank of these lines Of
communication would be a vital menace to
this country.
There will be, however, no objection here
to France giving compensation in the
shape OF a rectification of the Karaum
(German) and French Congo boundary pro-
vided that IL does not include a change of
ownership of the coast line detrimental to
this country.
The activity of the Foreign office today
was again marked. The indications point
TO the near approach of a stage where the
crisis either will become acutely virulent
or begin to dissolve. The composition of
the situation-Premier Asquith, Sir Ed
ward Grey. secretary of foreign affairs,
and Chancellor Lloyd-George. the latter
representing the radicals of the cabinet
shows that the British government is solid,
while the fact that Sir Francis BERTHE, the
British ambassador TO France, and Paul
Cambon, the French ambassador at Lon
don, have been called into conference
proves the continued solidarity of the
Anglo-French entente.
King Alfonso, too appeared on the scene
today. having arrived at Portsmouth on
the Spanish royal yacht Giraldi and i'm
mediately came to London, where he con-
ferred with Sir Edward Grey.
King George is remaining in town and
messengers pass frequently between Buck

OVERSMITH, THE SNEAK.

A coward is the most contemplate
of men, and of all this tribe he who
does his dirty work behind another's
back; who skulks in ambush while
puppets and tools do his bidding, is
most debased, treacherous and con
temptible. For almost three years
now, ever since j. w. Schloesser as
sumed control of the Troy News, that
paper has been the tool of Attorney
Oversmith. 1t has been his mouth
piece; it has been clearing house
for his enmity, hatred and legal petit
Jogging. 1t is Oversmith, the sneak,
who has dictated it's policy, written its
editorials, and used whatever influence
the News had to advance his personal
interests.
Oversmith owns timber claim.
Therefore the Troy News has never
neglected to say wnen attacking the
recent sale of state land, that the
News would change front; would with
draw all opposition; would lay down
and permit the contamination of what
the News insisted was crime against
society and a bad thing for the state,
pany buy the timber claim of A. H.
Oversmith. Which is very fair
sample of Oversmitn.
1t will be remembered that little
xxr1o,
to sell the state timber was first
made, the Troy News came out and en-
dorsed the proposed SALE The News
said it was good thing. That was
in July, 1910. A few days later J.
w. Schloesser accompanied party of |
editors over the land to be sold, and |
he assured the people the proposed |
sale was good thing. Mr.. Schloesser
today knows, as does every other sane
citizen in the state, that no living
man, in his right mind, would have
turned down the sale.
But this man Oversmith has claim
to sell, and the Troy News suddenly
discovered that the only thing on
earth to keep grasping monopoly
from crushing out the life of the poor
people of Idaho was to compel this
public enemy to fatten the private bank

comb and brush which, in his opinion,
spreads diseases of just as virulent a
nature and just as rapidly as does the
cup.
Wallis says that there have been
many cases coming TO the attention of
the department where brushes have
transferred typhoid and other diseases.
The patient just recovering from his
illness had used the brush and was
followed by somebody in apparently
good health but who fell victim to
the same disease after the use of the
deadly carrier He says that this condi-
ton prevails more generally in the
hotels of the state and in public bath
ing places than in any other resorts
to which the people generally go.

in the near future, the Troy News i'm
plies that P. L. circuit took a bride
: for supporting the sale. Did the Pot
latch Lumber company bride the
, Troy News when it favored the sale?
Did it change front in order to exact
tribute? Is it not as dirty a crime to
betray the people when the considera-
ton involves the sale of Oversmiths
timber claim as it is to accept a few
paltry dollars?
If the Troy News will take the
trouble to investigate the record it
will find that in 1906, or four years
before the proposition to sell the state
land, came up, P. L. circuit was in ia
vor of either selling the land, as has
been done, or leasing it, both plans
amounting to extension of time suf-
| ficient to permit the Potlatch Lumber
company to remove all its timber, and
do so scientifically and in harmony
with the principles of conservation. An
editorial in the Troy News in Decem-
Der, 1906, is proof of this assertion.
Yet the Troy News would have it appear
that P. L. Orcutt favored the recent
across" To the author of the Troy |
News editorial it is apparently incon-
ceivable that man could take an
honest stand when presented with so
rich an opportunity TO graft
If the Troy News will make an
honest investigation it will discover
that the entire anti-timber extension
fight centered around two things.
First, the people wanted the company
to build mills and operate, giving en-
ployment to labor and making home
market for the farmer; second, that as
much as possible Of state land be
made to pay revenue When the state
sold the timber the purchaser paid
taxes on timber only. According to
the terms of this sale this vast acre
age of state land was bringing no
taxes for 20 years, nor could it be
settled. The people opposed an extern
sion of 20 years, or a total of 40 years.
r The writer led the fight against eX-
tension We fought 1t when it would
have paid us well to have laid down
We didn't We would fight extension
oday We were, in 1906, in ia
yor of a sale or lease, and we are still t.

Just another reason why honest cit n
zens might favor the proposed sale ev- 9,
n though Oversmith and the Troy
Jews would have them thieves, liars :
nd public enemies:
By the terms of the sale the Pot al
atch Lumber company is even now re- al
10000 acres of valuable hi
mothy land near Bovill. This land d.
ill be sold to private settlers in the til
pring 1t will be settled up, giving tn
atah county large additional tn
mount of taxable property. This IS be
Crth about as much to the county as b1
the size of Oversmith's bank ac- CT
punt. And yet this sale is but drop :
