THE KING OF THE HUNS.

Seventeen years ago when German
troops were about to depart from Bre-
merhaven to help suppress the Box
ers rebellion in China and secure re-
mans, Kaiser Wilhelm said among 9TH
er things:
If you meet the enemy, you will
defeat him; give no quarter, make
no prisOners; let whoever falls in
your hands be doomed Just as
thousand years ago the Huns, I'M
der their King EtZel, made for
themselves a name which to this
day is mighty one in tradition,
so may your appearance make the
name German be feared for a
thousand years in China, so never
again will a Chinaman dare to
look askance at any German"
Substitute for the word "Chinaman
the word "aIlies" and the speech
might have been made at the begin
ming of this war.
The spirit OF ruthlessness, of Hun
nish savagery, of utter disregard Of
restraint which breathed in the words
of the kaiser in 1900 is just as alive
in his heart today and in the hearts
OF his men.
The Germans have not made war as
civilized human beings make war.
They have made war as it was made
a thousand years ago. They have
made war as their ancestors made it
long before that, before the religion
OF the God of Love had been preached
to them.
The God to whom the kaiser is al
ways appealing and of whose aid he
is always 50 cOckSure is not the God
of the Christian world. 1t is the God
of his IIunniah ancestors, a God Of
battles, a God that rejofces in blood.
No man, not even the emperor Of
the Huns, could dare appeal to the
God we worship, when his hands are
dripping with the blood OF the limo
cents. His miniOns have outraged
women and mutilated children, car
ried off the helpless into slavery, as
sassinated civilians upon the high
seas.
In no way, as a brute and bar
barian, is King EtZel the superior Of
Kaiser Wilhelm. They are from the
same mould. Just as King EtZel made
for himself a name, so has the HOhen'
zollern-a name of infamy which will
be eXecrated by generations yet I'M
born

Is PCT. SHORT
Of COAL NEEDS
IN THE VALLEY
DR.. E. J. Rabcock of School OF
Mines Tells Defense Council
Exact Situation
Ignite PRODUCTION IS
INCREASED 43 PER CENT
Old Standby of Slope Country

Eastern Section

With the close of navigation but
three months distant, and cold wealth
err due in less than two months, coal
stores in dealers and consumers
hands in the eastern part Of North
Dakota are still Is percent short OF
requirements.
While the bituminOus and anthra'
cite mines of the east succeeded in in
creasing production but 10 percent,
the Ignite mines of North Dakota in
August increased production, by ac'
tual federal statistics, 43 percent.
These paragraphs cover the gloom
lest and the most cheerful features OF
the report which Dean E. j. Babcock
OF the North Dakota school of mines
as chairman of the national defense
council committee on fuel presented
at a session of the executive commit
tee here Tuesday.
Should Store Coal.
Dr. RabcOck is not pessimistic. lie
does not believe that eastern Goals
will advance in price. They may go
lower. He does not promise this. lie
the eastern section Of the state lay
in at least one months supply OF ccal
with out regard to possible future
drop in price in order that the Geld
snap when it comes may not find them
wholly unprepared.
Dr. Labcock named dealers who
have on hand orders for thousands Of
tons upon which they cannot deliver
single lump of coal. Some OF these
orders have been pending since last
lune. He tolf of consumers who have
an opportunity to buy coal. but who
are holding off, expecting drop in
price.

Germany's official announcement
that 1t has no peace terms to announce
contains no news. No peace can come
from German official sources. Presi-
dent Wilson made that fact quite plain
in his note to the pope. German Off
cialdom doesn't enter into peace con-
SideratiOnS of the allies. Peace, when
it is made, will be made with the
German people. and not with a de-
generate aristocracy with lust for
blood unsatiated.

100000 SOLDIERS START
ON TRIP 70 CAMP rOADY

Washington, Sept. 19.-Marshalled
for the last time as civilians and I'M
der civilian authority, more than
100000 men of the national army e
forward today to the lG cantonments.
The whole nation is astir with the
movement Of the selective forces. The
men represent approximately As PEI
cent OF the total quota under the first
call from each of nearly 5000 local
boards. Already at the camps is the
advance guard of five per cent Of the
total, composed of experienced men,
including cooks. Out of this has been
created a skeleton organization into
which the second increment will be-
gin to be absorbed tomorrow with lit
tie confusion. When the last men of
this increment arrive, the camps will
house half Of the first call of forces,
or 343.5O0 men, and the other half
will follow as rapidly as quarters an.
equipment are made available.
In a statement today the war de-
partment says the enormous talk of
obtaining equipment and supplies to-
the army is moving isfactorily
Some of the men of the national army
may be only partially equipped for
some time after they are mobilized
and no attempt will be made to fur
nish them with full war equipment un-
til the eve of their departure for Eu
rope. Some civilion clothing, such as
overcoats, will have to be used for
time, as the clothing industry has
not as yet caught up with its work
May Be Deficiency.
With the mobilization of one half of
the GS1,COO men of the first call un-
der the selective service law in pro
gress, the question arises as to wheth-
er that number of men will be suffi-
Gent to fill all units of the national
guard and national army. There are
indications that deficiency in men
will be disclosed when official reports
from all the 80 training camps are
available
