editorial commenting on the fact that
the city had failed to provide public
entertainment for National Guard off
GERS who were attending school at
Leavenworth. The editorial says:
Fort Leavenworth has for two weeks
been the scene of an encampment of
National Guard officers from several
states. all men of high standing in
their own communities and mostly bus
mess and professional men of promi-
nence. 1t would have been a nice thing
for Leavenworth to have extended
these gentlemen some social courtesy
in the form of a banquet, possibly, in
order that they might have become ac-
quainted with Leavenworth and Leav-
enworthians. Some of our citizens
made it a point to extend the hospital
ity of their homes to the strangers, but
no public courtesy was shown Moth
ing benefits city more than to have
strangers go away praising its hos
pitality"

FRANCE To IMPOSE
EQUAL HARDSH|PS
Denies Germany Has Excuse
for Making Prisoners
Work in Swamps.

Announcement of Germany's inten-
ton to condemn French prisoners of
war to labor In the swamps, in retalia-
ton for alleged mistreatment of Ger
man prisoners in French hands, has
brought notice of retailiations by the
French. AT the French embassy yester-
day this statement was issued:
In accordance with a statement of
the Overseas News Agency. the French
government refuses to mitigate the
brutal treatment being accorded Ger
man civil and military prisoners in
tropical Africa. This is particularly
true in Dahomey.
German Retaliation.
"As a measure OF retaliation the Ger
man government intends to compel
French prisoners to cultivate swamps'
LAS a fact, the mass of such German
prisoners as have been sent to Af-
rica is not in Dahomey, but in Algeria,
Tunis and Morocco. The first two re-
gions have been recently visited by the
delegates of the American embassy in
Paris and the other by DR.. de Marval.
Swiss citizen and a delegate of the
international committee of the Red
Cross.
The reports of these visitors testi-
fy to the favorable conditions as to
food, clothing and work obtaining in
those places.
Treated Well in Africa.
LAS for the few hundred of Germans
kept in Dahomey. they were captured
in the not remote colonies of Togo and
Cameroun: they receive fair treatment
the statement that they were badly
treated had been contradicted by the
American minister at Monrovia; their
general health is good On the coming,
moreover, of the bad season the French
government has decided to move them
to northern Africa.
"If the German authorities follow
their intentions concerning French
prisoners. German ones in the same
number will be similarly treated"

EVER HAVE 1T?
If You Have, the Statement of This
Emmett Citizen Will Interest.

Ever have '1ow-down" pain in the
back?
In the "small," right over the hips?
That's the home of backache.
If it's caused by weak kidneys,
Use Doan's Kidney Pills.
Emmett people testify to their
worth. Read a case of it:
Mrs. R. A. Mcfarland, First Street,
Emmett, says: "One of the family
was crippled up with backache and
complained of lameness and soreness
across the loins. Doan's Kidney Pills
were taken and they removed the
backache and proved of benefit in
every way. l took Doan's Kidney
Pills about year ago for backache
and trouble from the kidney secre-
tions. l was greatly benefited"
Statement given June 10, 1900
OVER TWO YEARS LATER, Mrs.
Mcfarland added: Nothing has
changed my high opinion of Doan's
Kidney Pills. My former statement
holds good"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Mcfarland recommends. Foster

What War MOUeS Mean
By ]. w. T. MASON.

One-half will be refitting at Cux-
haven or another base. while the
second half Is making war on mer-
chantmen.
Instead of submarine to each
forty miles of British coastal wat
ers. the proportion Is reduced in
reality to one in eighty miles-and
this upon the most favorable esti-
mate of Germany's under-sea
strength.
Eighty miles Is about the distance
from New York to Atlantic City. A
single submarine could not maintain
a blockade Of the Jersey coast be-
tween these points. Ten submarines
might attempt it with some theoret-
ical prospect of success On this
basis. Germany. in theory, might
hope to blockade the British Isles If
she possessed 500 instead of a pos
sible fiftv submarines.
But. this Is only theoretically true,
the easier becomes defense against
them. The most effective part Of a
submarines offensive is the element
Of concealment and surprise. Long
before the number of blockading
submarines reached 500. their where
abouts would be accurately known
to the defending nation. and many
ence has not yet demonstrated the
maximum strength Of a submarine
flotilla that can operate in a given
era without endangering its own
concealment: but the number is
strictly limited and this fact. coupled
with the extreme vulnerability of
submarines. makes it impossible that
will ever be able to maintain an ef-
fectiye blockade

NEW YORK. Feb. 1s.-Fifty Ger
man submarines. at most. begin to-
day the impossible task OF trying TO
blockade the coast line Of the Brit
ish Isles, which measures ABOUT
1900 miles. This gives a maximum
of one submarine for every forty
miles of water: but even then. only
for a very brief time. since UNDER
sea boats must return to their bases
frequently for new fuel or more
torpedoes.
There is no evidence that any
country has succeeded in establish
ing supply bases for submarines on
the ocean bed As far as Is known.
no navy has submarines capable OF
being opened, with safety. below the
surface Otherwise. submarine crews
could rescue themselves by bobbing
to the surface in cases OF accident.
Germany's submarines cannot keep
the seas for a considerable period
unless they remain INACTIVE, and
their offensive power Is thus lessen
ed by their necessarily frequent re-
turns home.
If, therefore, Germany has as
MANY as fifty submarines ready Tor
action In the new war zone. this
number must be cut in half AS far
as continuous activity Is concerned.
