for their object the guarantee of
existence, of honor and of liberty
of evolution for the four allied
(CentraD powers.

If the enemy counted upon the wcari-
ceived.
"The Reichstag, by means of the
national auxiliary war service law,
helped to build new offensive and
defensive bulwark in the midst of the
great struggle" the Chancellor con-
tinued. Behind the fighting army
stands the nation at work-the gil
gantic force of the nation at work
for the common aim.
'Inexhaustible Resources"
"The empire is not besciged fort
ress as our adversnrics imagine, but
one gigantic and firmly disciplined
camp, with inexhaustible resources.
That is the German empire, which is
firmly and faithfully united with it's
brothers in arms, who have been test
ed in battle under Austro- Hungarian
Turkish and Bulgarian flags. Not con-
fused by asseverations we progressed
with firm decision and we thus con-
tinued our progress always ready to
defend ourselves and fight for our
nations existence for it's free future
and always ready to stretch out our
hands for peace.
"Our strength has not made our
ears deaf to our responsibility before
God, before our own national and be-
fore humanity. The declarations for
merly made by us concerning our
readiness for peace were evadcd by
our adversaries. Now we have ad-
vanced one step further in this direc-
ton.
Emperor's Responsibility.
"On August /, 1914, the Emperor
had personally to take the gravest de-
cision which ever fell to the lot of a
German-the order for mobilization
which he was compelled to give as a
result of the Russian mobilization.
During these long and earnest years
Of the war, the Emperor has been
moved by a single thought: How
peace could be restored to safeguard
Germany after the struggle in which
she has fought victoriously.
"Nobody can testify better than
this who bears the responsibility for
all action of the government. In a
depp moral and religious sense of
duty toward his nation and beyond it
toward humanity, the Emperor now
considers that the moment has come
for official action toward peace.
"His majesty, therefore, in COM
plete harmony and in common with
our allies decided to- propose to the
hostile powers to enter into peace ne
gotiations. This informing, / trans
mitted note to this etfert to, the hos
tile powers, through the representa-
tives of these powers which are
watching over our interests and
rights in the hostile States. / asked
the representatives of Spain, the
United States and Switzerland to for
ward that note.
"The same procedure has been
adopted today in Vienna, Constanti-
nople and Sofia. Other neutrals and
the Pope have been similarly inform

OLD HICKORY TONIC

First used by a doctor who lost his
life in the Civil war.
Next used by doctor who studied
medicine under the first. This doc
tor practiced medicine for a period OF
Sc years, from 1858 to 1914, and he
gave Old Hickory Tonic to a large
number Of his patients in all these
years. He died at the ripe old age OF
eighty-flve years.
The formula was handed down to
his two sons who also became doc
tors. They found the medicine so
meritorious that they also used It in
their regular practice. One Of them
has now given it to his patients for
thirty years. Scarcely day passes
that he does not prescribe 1t.
Old Hickory Tonic creates new
strength, richer blood, more vitality

OF the twenty-three farmers visit
ed this week, eighteen are growing
soy beans for the first time and
eight are growing alfalfa.
The county agent will visit farms
in Elk and Grant districts next
week.
If the dry weather continues the
cultivators should be kept running
in the corn, but the cultivation
should be shallow.
1t will not be too late next week
to sow Soudan grass. 1t is an annual
but makes a very rapid and quick
growth, cutting from two to three
tons per acre. The seed can be had
in Clarksburg at eight and one-half
cents per pound. Three years ago 1t
cost 81 per pound. Sow twenty to
twenty-five pounds per acre If sown
alone. Some farms have mixed Sou
dan and soy beans together.
A farmer remarked this week that
a good pure bred calf was cheaper
at S25 than scrub as a gift and he
said he was able to prove it.

LewistOn-MissOula Highway.

There is no better illustration of
the scale on which development pro-
jects are undertaken in the great
Northwest than is afforded by the
lately proposed highway across the
Bitterroot Mountains to connect the
famous Bitterroot Valley with the
equally rich but undeveloped Clear
water Valley in Idaho.
The route is destined to be link
in one of the most important trans
continental highways. 1t extends
from Lolo, Montana, a point on the
park to Park Highway, 9 miles from
Missoula, up Lolo Creek to Lolo Pass,
down the Lochsa river and the Clear
water river to Kooskia, and ulti-
mately to Lewiston. Missoula is
reached by the Northwest Trail, a
highway reaching from Chicago to
Seattle, as well as the Park to Park
Highway. The Importance of this
point in tourist travel is shown by the
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1916-03-24

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

Culdesac Enterprise: The federal
steam roller was in evidence at the
democratic convention at Lewiston
Wednesday and crushed all opposition
to Robert H. Elder, national com
mitteeman from Idaho. The dele
gates selected to attend the state con-
vention to be held at Pocatello in
May were gagged-bound hand and
foot-and it is up to them to vote
for the rejection of Elder as national
committeeman or stay at home. The
federal brigadein Idaho rules the de-
mocratic roost and it seems useless
for the rank and file to put up any op-
position. Pos masters and other de-
mocratic federal office holders must
dance when Elder and his henchmen
crack the whip. Civil service rules
are ignored, but they know the adj
ministration will uphold Elders ap-
pointees in this, as President Wilson
himself has been trampling civil SER
vice under foot ever since he became
president.
Delegates from many of the outside
precincts who attended the Lewiston
convention returned home much dis
satisfied with results, and although
Woodrow and Nose were endorsed, the
endorsement at the polls in November
will be anything but unanimous.

BOOZE is AN OUTLAW.

Speaking of the ''Relation of State
to National Constitutional Prohibi-
tion," Anna A. Gordon, president of
the National w. C. T. u, in an ad-
dress at Sioux Falls, S. D., March
10, said:
"A prohibition amendment to the
federal constitution is in perfect ac-
cord with the declaration of the Su-
preme Court of the United States,
twelve times reiterated: There is
no inherent right to sell intoxicating
liquors., and with it's furthre declara
tion that mo legislature has the right
to bargain away the public health and
the public morals. All states will
benefit by the amendment. States
which have not themselves voted out
the liquor traffic will have the aid of
the national law and the appeal to
uphold national prohibition policy
will be much stronger than is the APP
peal to state osprohibit the traffic.
A national constitutional amend
ment will be of great benefit to pro-
hibition states because in law enforce
ment they will no longer be handicap
ped by outside brewers. distillers
and dealers who constantly attempt to
nullify the state law and to sell liquor
in dry territory. The states will
still have power to go just as far as
they desire in prohibiting any phase
of the liquor traffic and will have the
aid which comes from a national pro-
hibition policy. Our greatest diff
Guilty today is the difference in policy
between the nations government and
the prohibition states. With similar
prohibition standard in the nation and
the states federal and state officers
would furnish "a frank and candid CO.
ope alton for the moral good.

According to the testimony of the
convicts in some of the largest eastern
prisons drinking is blamed for their
downfall. And the testimony of these
men should be competent, relevent and
material. We hear the ministers of

cause it is charged they are sissies,
old women, or narrow minded, but
when worldly, irreligious men, who
have gone down under the demon Rum
cry out against liquor, charging it
with their ruin, what can be said in
defense of booze?
