The Truce Of Patriotism.

President Wilson's appeal to
both sides in the Colorado fuel
strike will be unreservedly en-
dorsed and mentally signed by
millions of thoughtful Ameri-
cans. Many are asking them
selves, no doubt, why the ap-
peals has been so long in coming.
The answer probably is that the
tentative basisis for the ad-
justment of the strike" had to
be worked out carefully. and that
the President has had other i'm
portant things to keep his mind
and pen usually busy.
In effect the appeal is for a
truce of patriotism. This is no
time for stubborn and selfish in
sistance on legal rights or pune
tillio. No sacrifice of principle
is demanded of either side. The
tentative basis seems in every
way reasonable and fair. It's re-
lection would produce a most
painful impression.
Let US not forget that a great
railroad strike was averted a few
weeks ago by an appeal to the
public spirit of the carriers. An
example was then given which

Sad killing.

A shadow of gloom was cast
over Horse Cave last evening
about 5 o'clock when Jessie Jor-
don, twelve-year-old daughter of
Mrs. D. Spences, was accidental
ly killed by the discharge of a
single barrel shot gun in the
hands of Marshall Eubank, the
seveny-ear-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. H. G. Eubank, while play
ing in the residence of Mr.. Eu-
bank, on Water street, in Horse
Cave.
The two little children, togeth-
er with a sister of the Eubank
boy, were playing war in the
house. where the Jordan child
had come from her home near
town to stay for the fair, and
the boy, unaware of the gun be-
ing loaded, pointed it at the lit
tie victim in play, the entire load
taking effect in the front part of
the neck. The little girls moth
er was in an adjoining room and
hearing the shot ran to the child
and caught her in her arms, the
child dying instantly.
Mr.. Eubank stated that the
gun was not usually loaded but
that he loaded it a few nights
ago when the town was visited
by robbers and failed to unload
same.
The remains were taken to
Knob Lick for interment.-Hart

Forms New Parisi, in Grand Forks and Starts
to Build New Church This Fall

An item in the Tuesday issue of
the Grand Forks Herald says that at
a meeting in the K. P hall Sunday
afternoon, preliminary plans for the
organization of a new parish in the
south end of the city were made by a
number Of the residents of the terri
tory affected. Another NEE ting is
scheduled for Thursday night, at
which time plans for the building of
church, selecting of the site ETC..
will probably be taken up. The new
parish would include all Of the terri
tory south of DeMers avenue. Father
M. j. O'Driscoll of Langdon will be
in charge.
The chief reason given for the
formation Of the new church is the
long distance the members living in
the south end of town have to traverse
in order to attend services, especially
the younger children. The plan for
new church to remedy this has been
under consideration for some time and
permission for its formation has been
received from Rt. Rev. JamesO Rreily
bishop of the diocese.

the object of fianking the Germans
in Belgian territory.
In the eastern theatre of the war
the Russians, following their brilliant
success at Lemberg, the capital of
Austria Galicia, are throwing their
forces against the first Austrian
army, which for three days has been
desperately trying to break through
the Russian line between Lublin and
Kohlm. Details Of the fighting
around Lemberg contains the state

Austrian prisoners.
On the other hand, advices received

A proper consideration is also being
given those eight graders OF last year
who failed in arithmetic and language
or IN some other two majors Should
these pupils pass the required stand
ard at the close of the first semester
they are to be graduated with due
honors. In the meantime they may
make such high school courses as are
consistent with the average daily
work of high school pupil.
The "return results from the
state examiner show that the severity
of last years faculty was warranted,
as very few grades were lowered and
many more raised

ance of the ninety per cent of the
