that the American people would be-
come similarly hardened. What an
anti-climax-whata a confession OF the
bankruptcy of its diplomacy-it would
be to force a break with Germany on
the Sussex incident, after having fail
ed for over eleven months TO obtain
any satisfaction for the Lusitania
mssacre!
Germany has maneuvered President
Wilson into a position in which he is
now obliged TO force an issue looking
to the severance of diplomatic rela-
tions on a distinctly minor grievance,
when he has persistently neglected to
call Germany to account for the most
shocking international crime commit
ted since there has been anything in
existence like international law.
There has been no parallel since
the law of nations was recognized to
the massacre by a belligerent Of the
neutral on-combatants-men, women
and children-who perished on the
Busitania. The German government
coolly confessed responsibility for
this slaughter, but refused to admit

Germany which want to see subma-

slightest concession to either human

could ever have been framed on which
to break off diplomatic relations.
protestations confined merely to let

The Administration at Washington
gave up letter writing, but did not

AT the present time contagious abor

to the livestock interests than any other

The agricultural appropriation bill
which hes been passed by congress pro-
yides among other things for sum of
$50. 900 for special research work in con-
tagious abortion. No doubt the most
competent men in meteorological lines
that can be found in America will be
secured to conduct this investigation
and while their problem is II difficult
one, we hope and have every reason TO
believe that some means of practical
control will be found before they have

TRAGIC ENDING OF NICK
kR0HN OF MOMTR0sE
Montrose Press

Montrose Press
Last Friday afternoon, County Com
missioner Nicolsus Krohn. of Montrose,
was instantly killed by horse on which
he was riding plunging over Is foot
cliff and crushing him to death.
In company with L. T. Mowry, fore
man of the road crew, and R. C. Wilson
Mr.. Krohn left the road camp some l3
miles down the San Miguel canyon from
Dry creek shortly after dinner. Friday,
for the purpose of riding along the rim
rock for quarter of mile and laying
out the work for the road builders.
..The trail is very narrow and dangerous
and they had been to very rocky point
and had turned their horses around and
were starting back toward camp when
MIR. Krohn thought of some other in-
structions to convey to his companions.
He turned partially around in his saddle
to talk to them, and it is supposed that
this caused the horse to swerve q little
and to lose his balance and footing, and
he plunged right over the edge of the
rim rock or cliff, a distance of ten to
fifteen feet. The animal and man land
ed in the dry bed on the edge of the
San Miguel river on the rocks and sand,
with the latter underneath the horse.
The horse was small one, and was not
sure footed while carrying such heavy
man as Mr.. Krohn.
Death must have been instantaneous.
His jaw was broken. both his shoulder
blades crushed and his back broken near
the base of the skull. His back rested
against a boulder showing that the
weight of the horse had crushed his life
out. The horse was not killed.
County Commissioner Krohn was en-
gagged in constructing . new state high
way down the San Miguel river since
last spring, having been placed in charge
of the work by the Commissioners and
the State Highway Commission because
of his msrked ability as q road builder.
The plan was that this road should be
the connecting link in the Ocean to
Ocean highway of the Rainbow Route,
being on water grade down the San
Miguel river to its junction to the Do
lores river. thence up the latter to the
Paradox valley. where it would leave
the river and proceed on west to the

told his tale we'll He had seen more
than Gerry could have put into words,
Gerry listened for q while. but he soon
wearied. What had all that to do with
him now? He wandered OF and start,

small pebbles that hurtled along the
ground. Gerry and his horse sought
shelter by the house, Herders came
running out from their quarters and
gathered in front of the veranda. The
wind suddenly turned cold, dropped
and ceased. The dust settled. The
sun blazed as before. There was moi
cloud IN the sky. The herders all
looked at Lieber. They did not talk
They were waiting. So
Lieber shrugged his shoulders
Somewhere" he said with wave OF
his hand to the southwest, there has
been rain and hail and that sort OF
thing. Temperature fell and drove

the men. but they did not go away
They stood around, their eyes sweep

his Geld glasses. without taking them
from his eyes, he spoke. "It's man

Something is up. He's riding to kill

As the man approached. dull rum
bling filed the ears of the watchers
So gradual was it's crescendo that they

and beat his horse to a final effort

drew nearer. and they heard him
Flood! Flood" Then they noticed
