EXECUTION OF BRITISH
SKIPPER ROUSES PROTEST

Captain Fryatt, commander of the
Brussels, IN English merchant
steamer, when attacked by a subma-
rine turned against it and tried to
ram it with such effect that it had
to dive under water and escape. But
later the Germans captured the Brus.
sells and tried the plucky captain by
court cartial. He was convicted OF
resisting a submarine and shot by a
firing squad. In vain he maintained
that he was merely acting IN orders
received from the British admiralty
He was held personally responsible
And his execution has aroused an.
Iother storm of i%mprecation from the
English, like the one that came uI
from Germany when the British ad.
miralty announced their intention tc
treat submarine crews as murderers
which policy, however, was abandon.
ed shortly after. The case in hand
is similar to that of the English
nurse executed by the Germans last
winter as a spy.
The Herald Republican, of Salt
Lake, has this editorial on the Fryatt
case:
Running Amuck Once More
Increasing confidence that Ger
man barbarities were at an end and
that the ruthlessness which marked
German operations in the early days
of the war had been abandoned is
.rudely dissipated by the execution of
a British merchant skipper for at
tempting to ram and sink a U-boat.
Neither in law or in morals can his
death be justified by his slayers.
International law authorizes a mer-
chairman to defend itself when at
tackled and permits it to carry arma-
ment for the purpose. This provis-
ion was accepted by Germany in The
Hague convention and that nations
readiness to employ international law
when it suits it's purposes is evidenc-
ed by the representations made to
the American government in the case
of the submarine Deutschland. Cap
tain Fryatt did only what that law
authorizes him to do when he attack
ed the enemy submarine which had
hailed him and, by it's provisions, he
was entitled to the ordinary rating
of a prisoner of a
IA chorus of protests arose in Ger
many when the British admiralty
many months ago announced its in
tention of treating as murderers the
captured crews Of submarines that
had torpedoed peaceful merchantmen
without warning. Great Britain ul-
timately abandoned that policy and
they are now merely prisoners Of
war. How can Germany justly the
death penalty for a merchant skip
per who merely defended himself by
the only means possible and oppose
it in the case Of it's armed seamen
who destroyed innocent lives?"

NEWS OF INTEREST
FROM OVER The STATE
Comfort Money

The spirited citizens of Caldwell
have united to subscribe a remittance
Of $25 per month for the Company G
boys of the Idaho Second Infantry
at Nogales. Other communities are
also busy raising funds to make con-
ditions more pleasant on the border
for the militiamen.
Horse Kills Boys
Levi Webster, 10 years old, of
Grant, was the victim of a fatal &C.
cident when a horse he was trying
to mount fell on him and so injured
him that he died after an unsuccess-
full operation at the Idaho Falls hos
pital.
Go After Water Company
Settlers on the Salmon project
having become disguised with the
Twin Falls Salmon River Land &
Water company because of its delays
and neglects are up in arms with a
petition to the state land board ask
ing that the company be deprived Of
its rights under contract with the
settlers. This action was fastened
by certain singing statements made
before the land board by Governor
Alexander and other officials to the
effect that the Salmon settlers were
unable to agree on any line of action.
Carnegie Library
Twin Falls is on the road to a
new public library at the hands of
the Carnegie foundation. The city
council has ordered the purchase Of
suitable lots for the building and the
local library board is in correspond
ance with the Carnegie people. The
lots r to cost $4,000.

GRAFTON. So far the state auditor has
received but n abstract, that oil
Custer county. This shows the tota,
real estate valuation of the county
for purposes of taxation to be ST..
978,267, an increase over the pre-.
vious year of $174,452. The first Of
the more important public utilities
reporting to the state board is the
Pacific States Telegraph & Telephone
company. Its report which has just
been filed shows a net earning in
Idaho for 1915 of $306,813.32-an
increase yer the former year OF
$~30,391.24. The net return for the
past years business in Idaho was
about As per cent of the gross in
come.
Progressive Party Organization
Since the adjournment of the ma
tional Republican and Progressive
conventions at Chicago, the Idaho
Progressives have apparently decid-
ed that the attempt to maintain the
party organization would be futile.
Practically all the leaders of the
party in 1912 and 1914 have return
ed to the Republican party, and there
has been a general dispensation on
the part of the members in general
to re-align themselves with their
former political fellows.
There was a conference Of Pro-
~ressive leaders Saturday afternoon
in Boise, when the decision was prac-
tically reached not to have a Pro-
gressive ticket in Ada county or the
state. The meeting was presided
over by former County Chairman F.
d. Johnesse. At the same meeting
Harry Kessler was elected chairman
of an executive committee then form
ed and G. G. Sherman secretary. In
addition the following members of
the committee were chosen: H. L.
Randall, T. D. Vickery, H. e. Elroy,
DR.. H. M. solverson and R. s. Sheri-
dan.
The action Of Guy D. Martin, of
Standpoint, widely recognized as one
of the most influential of the leaders
of Progressives thought in the state,
in announcing his advocacy for
Hughes election was discussed at
the meeting, and of those who, are
in attendance a majority are reported
to be of the same mind as Mr.. Mar
tin.
