LORDS OF EUROPE
E: HOLD MANY TITLES
II Spain Joined Allies, Twenty
Five Kings Would Form the
Triple Entente.
EMPEROR OF GERMANY HAS
LONG LIST OF SUFFIxES
Some Monarchs Retain Names as
2ulers of Countries That We're
Won Years Ago by Others.

The battle of four kings against FIVE.
celebrated in the annals of Scripture. is
far surpassed by the present European
war. How far may be indicated by the
statement that if Spain should throw in
her lot with France. as has been sug-
gested, it would mean an addition of
twenty-five kings to the forces of the
triple entente. For the kings of Europe
bear many and diverse titles. and Al
fonso XIII. King of Spain, has twenty
four other royal titles to his credit. He
lis officially known as King of Spain,
CASTLE and Leon, Aragon. the two
Sicilies. Jerusalem, Navarro. Grenada
and so on down to the Canary Islands,
the East and West Indies. India and the
continent of the farther ocean. Besides
which he is an archduke of Austria.
Alfonso is not the only European mon
arch who boasts long string of titles.
Many of the heads of the older houses,
after leading off like Alfonso with the
title which marks them as rulers of the
whole country follow with the titles
which confer sovereignty over the small
er domains into which every European
country was divided In the feudal period.
Never Ceases to Be King.
Moreover. a king never admits if he can
help II that he has ceased to be king of
anything, and so we have attached to the
names of most of the European rulers
titles which no longer have any signifi-
cance at all. And even to the thrones
which now are occupied there are many
pretenders.
So 1t comes about, for instance that
there are TWO others besides Alfonso who
may on occasion claim titles as kings of
Spain. They are Emanuele F'iliberto,
Duke of Aosta and cousin of the King OF
Italy. and Don Jaime. head of the Carlst
house. Alfonso and his cousin, the Count
OF Caserta, both hold the title of King
of the two Siciles, but the King Of Italy.
who Is actual ruler of the two Sicicles,
does not.
The Emperor of Austria, the King OF
Spain. the Count of Caserta and Don
Jamie all hold the title of King of Jeru-
who is actual ruler of tn etwo Siciles,
sultan OF Turkey. styles himself not the
KING, but the servant of Jerusalem (or,
as the Arabs call 1t. Kuds). That rulers
tuii rank and entitulature is Emperor of
she Ottomans, Caliph of the Mussulmans.
Prince of the Faithful. Servant of the
Cities of Medina, Mecca and kuds: Sui

New Ten Commandments

The "Inland Grocer" last month pub
lished the following "ten command
ments" which are presumed to include
all the laws, moral and otherwise,
which govern the various eastern mail
order houses in their dealings with the
farmers:
1. You shall sell your farm products
for cash whenever you can, but not to
US. We do not buy from you.
Q. You shall believe our statements
and buy all you need from US, because
we want to be good to you, although
we are not personally acquainted with
you.
3. You shall send the money In ad-
vance to give US a chance to get the
goods from the factory withyour money;
meanwhile, you will have to wait pa
tiently few weeks, as that is our bus
iness method.
4. You shall apply to your nearest
city to aid you in building good roads
so you can conveniently get the goods
from the depot, for we do not build
country roads.
5. You shall buy church bells and
church fixtures from us and forward
the money in advance, for this is our
business method, and you shall collect
from the business men in your vicinity
as much money as you can for the ben
eft of your churches as it is against our
rules to donate for building country
churches.
6. You shall buy your tools from us
and be your own mechanic in order to
drive the mechanics from your vicinity,
for we wish it so.
7. You shall induce your neighbor to
buy every thing from us, as we have
room for more money-the less money
there is in your community, the sooner
we can put your local merchants out OF
business and charge you any price we
please.
8. You shall look often at the beauti-
full pictures in our catalog, so your
wishes will increase, and so you will
send in big order, although you are
not in immediate need of the goods,
otherwise you might have some money
left to buy some necessary goods from
your local merchant.
9. You shall have the merchants who
repair the goods you buy from US, book
the bills so you can send the money for
his labor to us for new goods, otherwise
he will not notice our influence.
10. You shall, in case of sickness or
need, apply to your local dealer for aid
and credit, as we do not know you or
care to.

We Are Truly
a Dry Nation

Writing in the Review of Re-
views, Ferdinand C. Inglehart
says: 1t is generally thought that
Germany drinks more beer than
any other nation in the world.
This is a mistake. Germany
comes second. The United
States consumes l, 851, 900 gallons
of beer each year, which is 100,
600 gallons more than Germany's
consumption. Russia leads the
world in its use of distilled liquors,
and the United States comes sec
ond with it's consumption of 1885,
100000 gallons. Although the
United States is first as beer
drinking nation and second as
consumer of distilled spirits
among the nations of the world,
the liquor dealers of America are
having a desperate fight for the
life of their traffic. The saloon
has been expelled from one-half
of the population and from two
thirds of the geographical area of
the country. In 1868 there were
$500, 900 people living in terri
tory where the drink traffic has
been outlawed; in 1900 the num-
ber had increased to 18, 600, 900;
in 1908, or only eight years after,
the number had doubled to &c.
100000, and today there are 49,
029,750 persons, or a fraction
over one-half of the population
of the country, living in no.
license territory. In the last five
years the no-license population
has increased a little over 10, 000,-
900, which is more than 1919 of
the total population of the nation
and 80 % increase in the number
living in dry districts. Since
1868 the population of the coun-
try has doubled, while the num-
ber of inhabitants of "dry" ter
ritory has increased over thir-
teenfold.

Out of the profits realized from
three pigs, purchased a year ago
for $50 each, ]. K. Smawley, a
farmer living south of Spofane,
has started on a trip around the
United States. Smawley has
$525 for the trip, and in addition
has the three pigs with which he
started his herd. At the Lewis
ton livestock show a little more
than a year ago he purchased the
original trio of Berkshire hogs
for $50 each, With a delegation
of their offspring he returned to
the livestock show this year and
his young pigs won six blue rib
bOns.
There was a lively demand for
Smawley's young porkers, and ne
sold Is. for $35 each, total of
$525. With this amount, which
he characterizes as velvet" be-
cause hog raising with him is a
side issue to wheat farming,
Smawley has started his journey.

We Greet the
New Year

The Examiner joins in the
greeting to the New Year. The
people have a right to take up
the duties of the new year with
light heart, for the accomplish
ments of the past year have
marked d new era in opportunity
for success, health and pleasure.
Three great events marked the
past year: The tariff has been re-
duced in favor of the common
people; a currency system has
been enacted which prevents any
financial interests from interfer-
ing with the progress of the ma
ton; sane policy of business has
come to be approved by the pub
lie, and the stamp of disapproval
has been placed on corporate
greed by the public and by the
federal administration.
In the rapid march of events,
the year 1918 was important in
giving recognition to public
rights. The year 1914 should
mark the use of these rights by
the masses to build for them
selves greater nation y wherein
happiness and prosperity shall be
more widely distributed.
The year 1914 comprises the
latter part of the 138th year of
American independence, and cor
responds to the year 6627 of the
Julian period, the year 5674-5675
of the Jewish era, the year 1888
of the Mohammedan era.
The United States Supreme
Court last May decided that the
owner of a patent is not protected
thereby in debating the price at
which the patented article must
be sold after it has left his hands.
The same court has now decided,
in the R. H. Macy & Co. book
case, that the owner of a copy
right is similarly restricted in
the sale of a copyrighted article
and cannot combine with others
to enforce a one-price decree with
out violating the Federal anti
trust law.
1t has been good sense all along
that when such a monopoly has
been protected by the govern
ment in commanding it's own
price at first sale, it has all the
protection which can be fairly
claimed. This is now good law.
1t is now neither law nor reason
ably right that legalized monop-
oily can follow up the price and
compel wholesalers who have
paid it to exact the same from the
retail buyer. Tacoma Tribune.

Medical inspection of students
of the Davenport schools will be
inaugurated soon, according to
action taken at a recent meeting
of it's parent-teacher association
with Professor R. w. Whitford,
superintendent of the city
schools. Physicians have agreed
to examine pupils free, reporting
any serious deficiencies or de-
fects to the superintendent, and
he in turn will communicate to
the parents, who will be allowed
discretion in selection of physi-
tian for treatment. Dentists
have also offered their services,
which have been accepted by the
board. The examination, in ad-
dition to inspection of the teeth,
will include the respiratory or
gans, ear, eye, throat and nose.
