ALLIES AFRICAN FORCES
ARE WIDELY SEPARATED
Scenes Of Fighting for German Pos
sessions Described in Geo.
graphic Bulletin.

when dispatches from the East
Africa battle front recently announced
the successful operation of British
forces under Gen. Smuts between Tanga
and Korogwe, and of a force under
Brig. Gen. Sir c. Crewe at Muanza, few
readers realized that the distance
separating these two scenes of hostility
in German East Africa is as great as
the airline distance from London to
Frankfort. Germany" according to to-
days war geography bulletin of the
National Geographic Society.
From Tanga to the southern shores
of Lake kiwu. where the Belgians from
the Kongo made their first descent upon
the Teutonic enemy's African possess
sions, 1t is nearly twice as far as from
Brussels to Berlin.
Scene Of Gen. Smuts' Gains.
THE scene of Gen. Smuts' success was
along the Usambara railway, which, at
the outbreak of the war, Germany was
constructing from the seaport of Tanga
to Lake Victoria Nyanza. When COM
pleted it will prove an outlet for one of
the richest sections of the dark con-
tinent.' That part of the road already
in operation taps the rich agricultural
region of Usambara. the first district of
German East Africa to come under the
of the kaiser. 1t was just
thirty-two years ago that three young
Germans Karl Peters, Count Pfeil and
DR.. Juhlke, made their way inland
from the coast and won the friendship
of a chieftain of Usambara With him
they negotiated a treaty, which was
V1Orrr rra<1 hxv al,
for a colonization society chartered by
the German government. For five or
six years the Sultan of Zanzibar dis
puted the right of the Germans to make
treaties with tribes supposed to be
subject to him, but a quarter of CEN
tury ago he surrendered his claim to
the mainland territory for a million
dollars.

Many years ago an Indian moved by

The uniformity Of appearance that the

that almost all of the houses are built

Trial Free by Mail.

Cuticura Soap and Ointment are not
only most valuable for the treatment of
pimples, blackheads, redness and rough
ness, dandruf and irritated scalps, but
their great mission is to prevent such
conditions. Cuticura Soap used exclu-
sively for the toilet and Cuticura Oint-
ment occasionally as needed keep the
skin and scalp clean, clear and healthy.
My face and neck were ruined with
pimples and blackheads. The pinples
were hard and red, and would itch and
bum so badly could hardly sleep at
night. When l scratched them, erup-
tions as large as a pea began to come
on my face, and was ashamed to 60 out
doors. My whole face was disfgured.

relief so bought more, and one box of

international Law"

| There are those in this country who
continue to discuss the usages of Inter,
national law" as if, during the present
war, international law had not been rele-
gated to the scrap-of paper heap
| Germany has violated international
law whenever it has suited her conven.
fence to do SO. Austria, OF course, has
done what Germany has told her to do
and the Turks have a traditional dis.
trust OF anything that resembles or i'm
itates international restrictions. They
are never TO be considered as serious
parties to any agreement between civil
lied nations in behalf of civilization.
The British and the French have not
stopped to murder on the high seas. We
may 90 so far as to state that. probably,
they would not do so if conditions. were
reversed and Germany. not they, were
in control of the seas. But they are VIC
lating international law in other ways.
and they are doing so deliberately and
constantly, and not even making plaus-
IDLE pretence that what they are doing
is in accordance with law.
Perhaps, after all, ii is Just as we'll
to accept and admit the fact that, so
far has the world progressed in wisdom,
Righteousness and justice, the signal for
hostilities in a modern war between
Christian nations automatically operates
as a notice that all solemn obligations
by all of the nations involved to those
not involved become voidable in case Of
emergency or expediency at the discre
ton of the combatants. As between the
allies and the Teutons, violations of in
ternational law to the detriment and
discomfort of the United States are
merely matters of degree, opportunity
and necessity.-Boston Traveller

Big CARD
Roderick Mackenzie Prom
inent Cooperative Leader,
to Appear in Fargo

One Of the talks at the Tri-state
Grain and Stock Growers program
will be by Roderick Mackenzie of
Winnipeg. The first problem the Can
adian farmers had to solve was the
marketing Of their grain. When they
organized no farmer could ship a car
Of grain, but now the Farmers Grain
company owns the elevators OF Mani
toba. Last year the Farmers company
handled 100000 bushels of grain.
The farmers next tried to buy 100
carloads of twine through their COM
pany but the twine manufacturers
would not quote them prices. They
then went to England and bought
their twine. The next year the twine
manufacturers solicited the farmers
twine business.
Then the farmers wanted to handle
machinery through their own COM
pany but the Canadian manufacturers
would not sell to the Farmers COM
pany so the farmers came to the
United States and bought their ma
chinery This brought the Canadian
machine manufacturers to time.
The lumber business was also tack
led and much money saved the farm
ers. The Farmers company is now
planning on building -four mills TO
grind their own flour and then to
build ships to carry it across to- the
markets in Europe 1t is inspiring to-
hear Mr.. Mackenzie relate how the
