COMPLIMENTS DEAN CARLYLE

In the decision of Dean w. L. Car
| lyle to accept the position of dean of
the Oklahoma Agricultural College
and dictatorship of the experiment
station of that state, the live stock in
dustry of the northwest suffers dis
tinct loss, says the Rural Spirit, the
well-known agricultural and farm pa
per- AS an effective advocate of more
and better live stock on the farm of
the northwest, an agricultural organ
izer and educator, there are few
stronger than the new dean and
director who takes charge in Oklahoma
December 1.
When Carlyle assumed his duties
five years ago at Moscow, the institu-
ton was torn with dissention of two
years duration. He organized strong
working force and the classes in agri-
culture increased several hundred per
cent in numbers. The farmer boy
judging teams from the Idaho Universi-
ty were successful in competition with
other institutions. The university stock |
farm had on it several Chicago Inter
national champions, and the exhibits |
sent out from that state have taken
more than their natural proportion Of
1onors.
Oklahoma is great state with a
vide variation of conditions and agri-
cultural problems to solve, and in the
nan they have chosen from the Pacific
northwest, they have one well fitted
or the task.

IDAHO SQUAD
NOT OUTCLASSED
"PINK, GRIFFITH'S TEAM SHOWED
GOOD FORM, DESPITE ONLY ONE
GAME TO IT'S CREDIT
Next Years Outlook Seems Bright
Idaho Men Found on Several Good
AII-NOrthwest Teams

Idaho's 1914 session on the gridiron
out but "Pinks' men were in their
right form when they met Whitman
at Walla Walla on Thanksgiving day
an dthey completely outclassed the
Missionaries although the final score
was only to in favor of the Silver
and Gold horde.
The touchdown came in the first
quarter. An exchange punts with
Captain Phillips having all the best
of it and some line-plowing plunges
and speedy end-circling sprints
brought the Idaho warriors to the
Whitman 20-yard line and then Phillips
shot pass to Purdy for the sixmark
er. Burns kicked goal.
Whitman was badly outplayed in the
last three quarters and local fans who
watched the game say that "Pink's"
men should have had at least three
touchdowns and would have slipped
them across with an respectable breaks
in the luck. Burns, Purdy, and De-
wa1d played stellar roles and Ross
made some sensational gains after he
got into the game.
Idaho only won one conference game
this season but the team played good
football and except in the contest with
o. A. c.. it was outlucked and not out |
played Prospects for a winning ag-
next year are bright because
most of this years battlers will be
back and some speedy new men may
come in the 1915 freshmen.

CURFEW WILL
RING TONIGHT
MUNICIPAL AUTHORITIES WILL
RE-ESTABLISH OLD
CUSTOM
The Alarm Will be Sounded Every
Night to Keep Children OH the
Street

| Although it has been some years
since it was enforced, the ordinance
providing for the ringing of a curfew
bell and for Furnishing minors guilty
of being on the streets thereafter is
still on the books. The statute has
never been repealed although it is
understood that the authorities quiet
ly decided to dispense with the curfew.
The firemen are reported to have OBJ
jected to it on the ground that they
often responded to it, thinking it a
call for a fire.
The ordinance, as drafted nearly IA
years ago, included some provisions
which doubtless would benefit by re-
vision, but since it is still in opera
ton the proper authorities have de-
cided to enforce the law at once, condi-
tions in Moscow being such that too
much harm is resulting from the care
less fashion in which parents are al
lowing their children to run the streets.
In future the city attorney, the police
judge ,and the chief of police will keep
a sharp lookout for boys and girls
under Is years of age who are upon
the streets two hours after sundown
by parent, guardian, |
Or in charge of some person of mature
age.
Violation of the ordinance is a mis-
lemeanor punishable by fine of not
more than $40 for each and every Of
ense, the offender to be imprisoned
or period of not more than five
lays until fine is paid.
Two hours after sundown the mar
hal is supposed to ring the bell. III
,rder that there may be no confusion
md no possibility of mistaking the
urfew for a fire alarm it has been
uggested that the harvester company's
whistle be blown Such a scheme, it
5 thought, would serve to warn the
who are not trained by /,
heir parents to get home and stay !

FIRST STATEMENT SINCE OUTBREAK OF WAR
GIVEN TO UNITED PRESS
FIGHTING FOR FATHERLAND
Declares Present Crisis is Most Stupidest Senseess
and Unnecessary War of Modern Times
Germany Expected the Crisis

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF GER
MAN CROWN PRINCE, Nov. 20.-(By
Courier and Cable .)-"Undoubtedly this
is the stupidest, most senseless and
most unnecessary war of modern times.
1t is a war Germany didn't want, ]
can assure you, but it was forced on
us and the fact that we were so eff
fectually prepared to defend ourselves
is now being used as an argument to
convince the world that we desired the
conflict"
The above were the words with
which Frederick William, crown
prince of Germany, opened the first
interview ever given foreign news
paper man. They prefaced the
first direct statement made to tho
press by any member of the German
royal family since the outbreak of the
war. The crown prince greeted me
cordially and without stiffness or cool
reserve which might have been ex-
pected.
II am a soldier and therefore can
not discuss politics." he said, "but it
seems to me this whole business, all
this action you see around here is
senseless unnecessary and uncalled
for. But Germany was left no choice in
the matter. From the lowest to highest
we all know we are fighting for our
existence. Since We knew the present |
war would be forced on us, it became
our highest duty to anticipate the
by every necessary and pos
sible preparation for the defense OF the
fatherland against the iron ring which
he enemy has been carefully and
steadily welding about us for years.

With General War; Weak First

monster descending on the plains of

Their children, their women and
their old folks, at least, may escape
the ravages of war. But none can es-
cape famine. Those who are least
able to withstand p~rivation would be
the first to feel it.
Conflict without Parallel.
History has never known such a
conflict as the European war will be,

DEWEY BELIEVES
DESTINY Great
Sees South American Trade
Switched to the United
States.

New York, Aug. 3.-Admiral
Dewey. ranking officer Of the Ameri-
can navy, declared, after hearing OF
the war news abroad. that he believed
that this country was on the threshold
OF a great opportunity and thai its
destiny was peculiarly in the hands of
Providence.
He is stopping for the summer at
Manhattan beach, where he wat in
formed of the declaration of war with
Germany has made against Russia.
The admiral has come in contact with
all the navies Of the world in his long
career and he knows we'll the navy
forces OF England and Germany.
He has followed the news Of the war
very closely In the last few days. Sit
ting on the piazza OF the hotel he
gazed out over the sea. watching the
coming and going Of the steamships
history.
Chance to Build Up Merchant Marine.
Owing to his official position the ad-
miral refused to discuss the impending
struggle of the fleets Of the powers.
He said, however, that now is the
great opportunity for the United
States to build up a merchant marine.
Now is the opportunity" continued
the admiral, "if congress acts, for the
United States to nave its share in the
carrying trade of the world. I thor
oughly approve the proposal of the
president to have the ship navigation
laws 80 amended that vessels of for
e1gn build may come under the Amer
lean flag. The present statutes are
very severe, and some modification Of
them would undoubtedly be necessary.
I'm recent years this country has
had practically no merchant marine.
Its transatlantic steamers have been
confined to such vessels as the st.
Louis and the st. Paul. There are
coasting vessels, to be sure. If the
opportunity m for this country to
obtain ocean carrying trade there are
thousands of we'll trained and vigor-
Gus Americans who could mar the
steamships.

fact that her relatives in Servia and

The pope is said to have made great

GERMANY HAS WAR
CASH AVAILABLE

London. Aug. 3.-(By mail from
rlin,)-Financially, Germany is
we'll prepared for war. Within a
week the kaiser will have at hand at
least s370,000, 900 in gold and silver
for vast expenditures Immediately
necessary.
The bulk and foundation Of this
available war fund lies in the subter-
ranean vaults in the julius tower at
Spandau. At the close of the war
with France in 1874, Germany levied
tribute from the republic not only in
the acquisition of Alsace-Lorraine, but
in the form of $50, 000,0 900 in gold.
This treasure, by the kaiser's insist
ence, was voted to be held in Julius
tower as a national war fund. Since
that time, not only has this vast
amount of gold been boarded at
Spandau, but more has been. added at
various times when. war clouds tow
cred, until. today it is variously, said
to amount to from $780, 600, 900 to $780,
100000. A veritable garrison guards
the tower.
The law provides, in! event Of war,
that SO in paper may be issued for
every dollar Of gold in julius tower.

in gold reserve. Deposited in various
banks is s3o.Ooo,ooO silver, war re-
