An investigation of the affairs of
the office was at once instituted, and
it was discovered prior to the close of
the Haines' administration that the
defalcation would reach the primary
sum of something in excess of $3.50, 600.
Governor Haines and his advisers feel

the land board should follow such a
policy. To do otherwise would be
unjust discrimination. There are at
this time many requests for state
loans from every county in the state

to distribute the money as nearly eq-

that in proportion to population and

farmers that they can get all the

Montpelier Examiner: When Gov
ernor Alexander tells the farmers of
Idaho. as he said in his speech in
Montpelier, that they can get all the
state money they want at six per cent
"by simply writing to the governor, !"
he is stating what he knows to be
false. Everybody who keeps in touch
with state officers knows that the de-
mand for loans from the state funds
is greatly in excess of the amount the
state land board has to loan. Then
it has been the policy of the land
board for years to treat all counties
as near alike as possible in the dis
tribution of the loans. A close
check is kept on the amount placed in
the various counties. SO as to pre-
vent any one county from getting
more than its share of the state s

We Give Two Cents
For The Armeiiiaiis

The total amount contributed
for the ArheinaiI and Selian re-
lief from the beginning of the
campaign on October l TO Nov
ember 90 is 81 O1S, ,9O2.0S. The
sum seems large, but is pitifuIly
small comps red with the need
of the recipients. It is less than
two cents apiece for each Of us.
Here we are confronted with
the SPECTACLE Of the most terri
bic religious persecution of all
history, far surprising in ey,
tent and brutality the lpersecu-
tion by Nero and the marrying
Of the Haguenots. AS nearly
as can be aseertained a million
Christians have been murdered
Or starved to death. There IL
nothing to lie done aboat that
now. Killing a million
Turks, most of them innocent
of the crime, would not bring
back to life the littlest of the
slaughtered babies. What does
concern us--or shouId-is that
there are twg million more
Christians in Armenia and Syria
who are still alive, but not likely
to live long unless we get help
to them soon. Some of them
have been transported hundreds
of miles away and left to starte
in the desert: Men have been
conscripted fof the army; wom-
ed taken to the harsm; children
ki 'naped into slavery. Thous-
ands have been slain because
they refused to deny Christ and
those who survive are threaten.
ed with the sati1e fate. In for.
mel tinies 1t Vas Dossibla for
some TO escape massacre BY
flight into the United States,
but this city of refuge is now
closed to them by the war. This
is field in which Americans
have always taken a special ih-
terest beeause of those who
have come to us and becaiise of
the schools and missions we
have supported there. But
what avail is all our missionary
work if the people themselves
are destroyed
o Yet when told of this dire dis
tress the American people have
on the average not been willing
to sacrifice two cigarets or sticks
Of chewing gum We ought to
do more than the beligerants
for the releaf of the suffering in
Europe, but we are doing less
The profit we have made on the
food sold to the British and
Ere Dch for the relief of the
Belgians is greater than the
amount we have given to that
fund. The American Commit
tee for Armenian and Syrian
Relief, whose headquarters is at
20 Fifth Avenue. New York, is
preparing to send a Christmas
ship filled with food and Goth
ling for the destitute near the
Mediterranean coast. For those
in the interior money is sent to
be spent locally by American
consuls and missionaries, aided
in some places by German of
ficials and teachers. The two
million dollars so far sent is
mostly spent already, leaving
