|" EADEiS OF THE MENACE who
/" have been on the list for the
past two years will only have
to be reminded Of the case Of Victor
Lamar, 20 recall the details Of the
most narrowing murder ever chron-
icled in the criminal annals OF Los
Angeles, (The city Of Angels) Calf,
just how many angels inhabit this
beautiful western city at this time is
not known, but should there be any,
they must surely blush with shame
when the name Of Priest +. V. Rey-
nolds is mentioned, and the horrible
fate Of little Victor Lamar is re-
called.
Because this brute in human form
is q Roman Catholic priest in good
standing, Mr.. W. Lamar, who re-
sides at 402 Centennial St, los
Angeles, has never been able 10 get
his story TO the people through the
daily press Of California, much less
secure the indictment and arrest Of
the man whom he alleges most brut-
ally murdered and hid the remains
Of his little son.
Because Of his inability TO thus
get access TO the people in the daily
press Of Los Angeles, he has had
printed aud distributed thousands Of
circulars, describing in detail this
horrible crime, the contents Of
which we're published in MENACE
No. 100, dated August 2, 1913, and
which we again reproduce in order
to properly preface the story Of later
developments in the case. The cir
cular follows.

But to jaggle with such figures in
an attempt to estimate what it has
cost so many nations Of the world to
kill SO many of their neighbors is a
cumbersome task, SO We will reduce
our observation to the cost Of and the
total Of lives lost during the great

the list only the Napoleonic wars. the
United States-Britisn war of 1912, the

war, the Russo-Turkish war of 1877,
the Boer-British war, the Spanish
American war, n the Russo
Japanese war.
Taking these alone, and with the
certainty that most of the estimated
are under rather than over stated
but letting the universally of this

faith, We are confronted by a list O.

Now, the actual cost of killing a
man in warfare is really but a small
portion Of the real expense in money
of conducting, enduring, and recover
ing from war.
The destruction of property which
accompanies warfare invariably is
enormous, and the sum total of it's
amount cannot be included in any
possibly accurate estimate of a wars
cost, for obvious reasons.
Principal among these is the fact
that there is absolutely no manner
by ean OF which it can be deter
mined.

with the march Of General Sherman's
army to the sea. The Sherman
march was principally through farm
ing country containing few important
centres of population, and offering,
therefore, really very slight opportu-
mites or necessities for the destruction
of property.
Yet General Sherman himself esti-
mated hat property c~onservativelN
valued at s3e0. 600 ,008 was destroyed
in the course of this one military
movement.
Therefore, should We include losses
from property destruction in the great
totals upon which we have based the
previously given cost of killing a man
during the civil war in the United
States. We should add, by means Of
this one item, $333t to the expense
! OF every victim of our entire civil war
And while Sherman's march may
have been, so far as property ven
the most destructive single military
movement which the great struggle
knew, its e~Xpensiveness would shrinF

IN applying tneSe estimates to the
general European war which now ac-
tually doeS exist, but a few changes
need be made. The total actual cost
will not run far below the m
cost of close to $50, 000, 600. Indeed, it
may far surpass it.
The principle loss undoubtedly will
arise from the withdrawal of men
from industry.
The existence of large standing
armies in all the nations engaged will

FEDERAL INSPECTOR IN DENIsoN
Harry Barmier, Of Davenport, FEEDER
al Inspector Of Migratory Bird
Law Here Last Thursday.

Mr.. Harry Barmier. of Davenport,
a federal inspector who is going about
the state looking out for hunters who
are breaking the laws in regard to
migratory birds paid Denison visit
last Thursday and while here made
the Review office call. Mr. Barmer
had just been to Council Bluffs and
was going up to Lake View for a
couple of days to investigate condi-
lions there.
In an interview with the federal
inspector he said that he has been
compelled to make a number of ar
rests during the past few weeks of
hunters who were doing shooting be-
tween sunset and sunrise. This
is strictly against the federal laws"
said Mr.. Barmeier. Down at Carter
Lake, between Omaha and Council
Bluffs ! spent several days rounding
up a bunch of hunters that persisted
in shooting after sunset and placed
a number of men under arrest. Hunt
ers may not be aware OF the fact that
they are not only breaking the law
but besides are spelling the shooting
for several days to come. The ducks
will stop at lake or pond to feed
which they do mostly at night and if
disturbed they will not feed and as
soon as it becomes light they will
fly away in search of another feeding
ground. If hunters will not modest
lor bnv will
go about feeding and shooting will be
good during the day time and even
il frightened away they will still re-
member that there is feed to be had
at that pond and will return at dusk
and remain over night.
The inspector said that the new
federal game laws should have been
enacted ten years ago. Although the
law has been in operation only a
short time now it is plain to see that
it has proven beneficial and that
the hunting is better now than it has
been for years. He believes that with
in few years the lakes OF Iowa will
again be the breeding grounds for
water fowl which OF course will mean
better hunting.
He asked the ReVleW 10 print tHe
open seasons for migratory birds UNI
der the federal regulations which are
as follows:
Waterfowl, Sept. to Dec. 16;
Rails, coots gallinules, Sept. to Dec.
