GERMANY GETTING
THE WORST OF IT

The war has lasted one hunred
days and is now engaging about half
of the world, and Germany is consid-
cred slightly worsted, with the
chances against her. The fighting on
the land indicates that situation, anG
Germany has met with some reverses
by sea. Two of her swiftest and
most effective battleships that have
been destroying commerce in the Pa
cific have been destroyed during the
week. and two of them bottled up
in harbor and dismantled. This
leaves the trade of the Pacific with
nothing to fear from Germany ex-
cept few vessels off the coast of
Chilli.
Germany is so effectually shut out
from the world that her food sup
plies are being rapidly depleted, al
though she was we'll stocked in the
beginning of the war. Most of her
men are at the front, and consump-
tion and destruction are going on at
such a rate as has never been con-
templated before. The vast supply
of German artillery has been in al
most constant use for three months,
and the life of a cannon is measured
by the number of shots it discharges.
The longer it is used the less accu-
rate is it's aim, and when it is worn
about certain amount it is not
effective. The gun factories of the
empire that have manufactured the
supply of artillery in times of peace
are unable to repair and rebuild guns
fast enough to maintain the supply
for such conflict.
Automobiles are relied upon for
moving artillery and supplies for the
most part, and these machines re-
ceive such constant and such rough
treatment that the whole auto equip
ment is fast getting in condition for
the scrap heap. The gasoline supply
is shut off from foreign countries and
Germany has been making great ef-
forts through Turkey, to get control
of the oil fields on the shores of the
Black sea, for the purpose of keep
ing up the supply. The allies have
the advantage in these matters, since
they have access to the trade of the
world. It is reported that overtures
have been made to Russia looking to
negotiations for peace.

COUNCIL JOINS TREGO in
REDUCING THE TAXES

The subject of the Batway ditch
was reported upon by J. G. Bond and
he recommended that the contract
heretofore considered be accepted,
but after long discussion it was
referred back to have one clause
eliminated releasing the city from
responsibility regarding the priority
of ditch rights.
The Public Playground
The city attorney presented the
proposition of the P. G. Johnston
land in the eastern part of town,
formerly part of the asylum tract,
originally part of the G. w. Benja-
mint farm, purchased by Mr.. John
ston for a juvenile playground. The
tract contains 1.27 acres on which
is some tall timber. Mr.. Johnston s
purchase price was $409, payable in
sixteen annual installments, at 6 per
cent. He has already paid out
$3O9.91 and the interest charges
raised it to total OF $481.70, which
' the city will have to pay to Mr..
Johnston if his proposition is accept
ed, and then the city will pay the re-
naming installments. On this ar
rangement Mr.. Johnston would not
make any profit on the tract, and
he would receive per cent interest
! on his money while it was tied up
in the deal The council decided to
go out and look it over.

history has been given from time to
time in this paper, beginning with
the first of April. Mr.. Peck, speak
ing for the committee, said they had
obtain ID an abstract of the accounts
of the restaurant taken from the
day book for three months, from
April first to July first, showing
what meals were charged to the
sheriff office, and it totaled about
1900 meals, and there was one place
in the book where it was torn and
there would be some moro to add if
the 'ook had been intact That the
sheriff had bill from the restaurant
for 1913 meals for the quarter at II
cents each, and it was paid by the
sher;ff's check on the 23rd of July,
$223.21, the check being exhibited as
proof that the settlement for the
quarter was made at that time and
on that bGsis. The tsheriff then
showed them that he had charged
this 1913 meals to three customers as
follows:
City of Blackfoot ....... 1852 meals
Bingham COZ nty .802 meals
United States ...........949 meals
Total 1919 mails
Mr.. Peck said this seemed to put
the sheriff in the clear, as he had
been charged for the same number
of meals as he had charged the de-
partments, for whom the meals were
served. But he could not reconcile
the difference of some four hundred
meals which the restaurant did not
seem to have received payment for.
1t was true the sheriff had bought
the meals at II cents and had sold
them at 25 cents to the county and
at 371 cents to the city and the
United States, but that had nothing
to do with the question confronting
the city as to whether they had paid
for something twice. 1t was plain to
the committee that the city had paid
for meals twice for the bunch of
hoboes working on the streets for a
period beginning with the second of
April, but since Sheriff Jones had
been required to pay for the meals
for them he did not see that Jones
should lose his bill. On the other
hand, the restaurant had served the
meals to the men at the table under
city guard, had presented his bill
to the city at the proper time, it had
been approved and paid for exactly
the number of meals served, and the
