Posterity's Fair
Share.

According to Congressman
Nicholas Longworth OF Ohio an
equitable division OF the coat Of
the war would be 26 per cent
paid in taxes by the present gen.
GRAFTON and rs per cent raised by
the sale OF bonds to be paid by
our posterity. He claims that
when the bonds become due our
population will at least have
doubled. 1t is the people of to-
day who are giving all the men
necessary to prosecute the war.
and il Mr.. Long orth's opinion
it is only fair to ask future gener-
ations to pay three fourths of the
money cost of conflict that has
been fought to make their heri
tage secure. 1t the war lasts
through another year, and addit
ional funds are required. Mr..
Longworth will favor the issue
of additional bonds rather than
further increase Of taxation.

London.--The Westminster Gazette
publishes message from correspon-

is being mastered by simple method
which, the correspondent indicates, is
the invention Of an American.
1T Is giving away no secret" the
correspondent writes. ITO say that the
method, which Is reputed to be infalli-
ble requires only little time to come
into full effect and wear the subma-
rines out. 1t is model Of simplicity.
The press has been liberal in Its an
nouncement Of Marconi's device, but
while extending encouragement to Mar
conf 1t must not be overlooked that the
genius who perfected one Of the most
monumental advances in maritime nav
igation has devoted his unremitting
consideration to the menace, and this
resourceful American, too. has worked
toward the device along Independent

Suspect Admits That He Shot Ranchee
Through Back Of the Head and
Hid the Body In Attic Of
Murdered Mans Cabin.

Salt Lake City.-The mystery sur
rounding the disappearance on March
u last Of Thomas Cavanaugh from his
ranch at Weiser, Idaho, mystery
which occasloned wide search by
officers and detectives in Salt Lake
and surrounding districts, was dissi-
pated Saturday when Luke s. May, Z
Salt Lake detective, succeeded In Sc
curing confession from the lips Of
Dan Ruth, now in the county Jail at
Weiser, Idaho, about to be charged
with murder in the first degree, nc
cording to story published In the
Salt Lake Tribune.
The body of Cavanaugh was discOv-
cred with the skull crushed and gum
shot wound through the head. about
two miles from the Cavanaugh ranch,
on Sunday, May Is. Previous to that
date rumors were afioat that he had
gone to Salt Lake in answer to letter
from former sweetheart. An inquest
was held at Weiser on May IL which
determined that death was the result
Of gunshot wound through the head.
In his alleged confession Saturday,
before Mr.. May, District Attorney Dom
art and Sheriff W. 3. Walker of Wei
ser, Ruth admitted that he shot Cava-
naugh through the back Of the head,
wrapped the body up with sacks, put a
canvas over it and placed it in the
attic of Cavanaugh's cabin.
After the killing he wrote a note to
James Elliott, his brother-in-law. ask
ing him to look after the stock on the
Cavanaugh ranch. Later Ruth re-
turned to Weiser and Elliott asked
him where the blood In the cabin
came from. Ruth told him 1t was from
some beef which he had killed and put
upstairs. Detective May tested this
blood and discovered that it was hu-
man blood. This was one OF the prin-
cipal item of evidence tending to con-
meet Ruth with the murder.
Thomas Cavanaugh at the time Of
his murder was "a years OF age. He
was Yale graduate, a fraternity man,
and had come west to make his for
tune. Three days before his murder
he was offered $500 for his ranch.

found a way TO strike the l. w. w.
hard, it is not Likely that the officers
OF justice and peace are going to sur
render the means at the demand Of a
revolutionary society that must be
fought TO decision sooner or later.
If the I. w. w. have not already
shown their full hand, have not already
done their worst, there are troublous
days Immediately ahead. When the
Washington Council Of Defence decided
to ask for military protection for the
Wenatchee and Yakima valleys and
adjacent districts the citizens were al
ready prepared to take the law into
their own hands. EXasperated by petty
sabotage and by threats of the burning
Of buildings, of the destruction of irri-
cation canals and Of the rap;ng Of
women, the resident population was or
ganizing vigilante committees and was
preparing to do with some of the mi
gratory disturbers as vigilante com
mittee did a little later with Little in
Butte. If there are not enough troops
to deal with O renewed attempt to Gre
ate a reign Of terror there is strong
likelihood that the Little crime will be
repeated in Washington-not, as in
Butte, in turbulent mining district,
but in one of the most law-abiding
