Germany Plans to Garry Sub
marine Warfare into Ameri-
can Waters.

NEW YORK, July 10.-Germany
plans to carry her submarine war
fare into American waters, according
to a reserve officer of the German
navy, who is understood to be cogniz-
ant of the intentions OF the great adj
miral, Won Tirpitz. chief of staff of the
German admiralty. The plan as out
lined provides for the establishment
OF submarine bases off the Canadian
coast with a view to sinking every
vessel leaving Halifax and Quebec
for British ports.
The scheme can be carried out, the
Germans are sure, without any ques-
ton arising as to the legality OF the
proceeding or the violation of the
Monroe doctrine The latter will not
be affected, 1t is pointed out, because
it can be shown that the establish
ment OF such bases would be in the
enemy's territory and would not be
done with view to territorial con-
quests. Also no question Of the neu-
trality of the United States would be
involved.

OFFICERS OF THE LAW BUSY
Wilson Charged with Horse Stealing
Stranger Taken up-Thought Insane.

Idaho county is having its share Of
horse and cattle stealing cases of late.
The latest offense charged is against a
young man by the name Of Howard
Wilson from the Clearwater section,
the complaining witness, G. s. Hunt
charging that the accused appropriated
horse to his own use which did not
belong to him. The preliminary hear
ing of the young man is set for Tues
day, March 90 and w. N. Scales has
been retained to appear for the defen-
dant. At present the young man is in
Jail awaiting the preliminary hearing
Besides the above case the county
prosecutor had another case to dispose
of this week. A person by the name
of Andy Kuensler was taken up on the
complaint of parties around town and
it was believed that he was insane. At
the hearing Monday it was found that
the party came west from Minnesota
riding a freight train and landing in
Lewiston some time ago where he re
manned for some time until advise by
the officers at that place to leave and
he then came up here on the prairie.
He was running around from house
to house and was causing considerable
annoyance to the residents when taken
up. At the hearing he was turned
loose and was sent out of town Tues
day morning. Although he was found
not to be insane at the hearing yet his
mental condition is not overly good.
This method of disposing of the ca.e is
the best and most economical for the
county and the state.
