REPORT BAD SINK
HOLE NEAR HORTE

reports from HOrte are to the Of
1ect that serious sink hole occur-
red wednesday in the two forties be-
longing to Carl Horte, and also in
the helShborhood of the Ray Turn
qolst and David Boyd homesteads,
resulting in considerable damage ia
the land and the loss of an imm-
ihellse amount of water which is so
sorely needed.
Ihe hole on the Horte place is
from thirty to forty fer deem and +o,
ieet wide and extends across the en-
tire piece of land. Workmen are now
engaged in the construction of :,
ne" ditch with the hopes that il
VIII hold. The bridge at the Horte
Store is completely washed out and
automobile traffic stops at this
point.
RI. X. Gnostein who is the ]easer
OF the Horte eighty will suffer tho
loss OF at least ten acres of wheat
by the sink hole and the additional
dltch now being made will cause tho
loss to be that much more. The dam
age to the property itself is of y ser-
ious nature.
Ihe opinion is that an under
ground current or gravel streak
washed out by the gradual seepaae
OF the water from the Reclamation
bitches. together with the extremely
not and dry weather for the past two
weeks is responsible for the sink.
VI is hoped there will not be a rep
tuition OF the same, and it is to be
regretted that in neighborhood
"here water was to be had whereby
crops could be saved from the dry
"eather' that a calamity of this
kind should take place.

A financial report for the Moiese
Valley club shows balance of S75.25
IN the treasury with which to make
the much needed improvements on
the building.
When pastures are too dry to af-
lord feed for stock, why turn them on
the roadsides which are even more
bare of grass? In this little valley
we have stock feeding along the
county roads owned by people of
Stevensville, Dixon and above Crow
Creek. With no feed, they natur-
ally destroy crops and break fences
down so that the need of herd law
is being felt more keen]y these days
than ever before.
The roads of this valley are in the
worst of bad condition. We had
wanted an auto badly, but now we
have decided to cling to the services
of our faithful horses. At the worst
bumps we can get out and lead our
horse and save our spine, while the
auto driver must sit tight and take
the bruise and jar. The U. S. will
need many strong backs. Perhaps a
visit by some of our county officials
would help save the travellers
strength.

MolEsE GETS NO AID

So far no financial aid has been
given us by county, state or federal
government in battling to save our
crops from grasshoppers. Yet salaried
men are telling the farmer to plow
and to plant more for next year. If
some of our worthy officials had
ploWed and planted all spring and
now spent their dollars on poison and
their days in scattering it, we are
firm in the belief that their efforts
would be a little more effective to-
ward crop protection than ever be-
fore. Is it too much to expect the
county to assist along it's roadsides
and the U. S. r. S. to aid along it's
ditch banks?-Dixon Herald.

Diver SINKS U. S. SHIP
Many Lives Lost When U-Boat
Destroys Steamer PetroIite.
Two Lifeboats Missing After Subma-
rine Sends Down the Standard
Oil Vessel.

Washington, June 13.-The Ameri-
can steamer Petrolite has been sent to
the bottom by German submarine.
The state department was advised
of the sinking of the steamer in q con-
sular telegram received here. The de-
partment has discontinued making pub
lie dates and locations of disasters to
American vessels.
The Petrolite was a tank steamer
with a gross tonnage Of 3,27O. The ves-
sci was constructed in Bredow, Ger
many, and was registered from New
York.
One boatload of survivors has been
landed, the consular telegram said,
and two boats are missing
The boat that reached shore was In
command Of the third mate of the
Petrolite. 1t contained the chief en-
gineer and Is men Or the crew. How
many men were in the two missing
boats was not known to the consul who
reported the disaster
The Petrolite had been until few
weeks ago the subject of lengthy cor
respondence between the United States
government and Austria.
On December 5, 1915, the PetrOlite
was attacked by submarine in the
Mediterranean. The identity of the
submarine was never discovered, al
though it was believed to have been an
Austrian subsea fighter. The subma-
rine fired upon the Petrolite and the
vessel was damaged but continued on
her way. Nils Larson, a seaman was
wounded. Up to the time of the diplo-
matte Break many notes concerning the
attack on the Petrolite had been ex-
changed between this government and
Austria.
Cadiz, Spain, June 13.-The Span
iSh torpedo boat No. 6 discovered the
German submarine U-52 disabled from
gun shots which had struck its engines.
The submarine was towed into Cadiz
and stripped of its wireless apparatus
so that it could not communicate with
vessels of the central powers interned
in this port.
Repairs to the German submarine
will take at least two days, but it is
believed the vessel will be interned.

DRAFT BEGINS
THE FIRST PART OF JULY
THE MARINE CORPS
AND WHAT IT DOES

He is always on the ocean, but he
is never at seattle American marine.
He is never at sea when a crisis
arises, for he knows just what to do
and how to do. He can land from his
ship in any part of the world and pro-
tect anything that needs the guardian
ship of the American flag. He has
been in Cuba, in Porto Rico, in
China, where he distinguished himself
before Peking. His shipmate, the blue
jacket, is always with him, either at
the gun on the dreadnaught with
which he serves, or marching by his
side in the column
Under the military regulations of
the United States the marine corps
furnishes the first line of mobile de-
tense of naval bases and naval sta
tions beyond the continental limits
Of the United States. 1t mans such
naval defenses as may be erected for
the defense of such naval bases and
naval stations. The corps has garris-
ma. 1t is to furnish such garrisons and
expeditiOnary forces for duty beyond
the seas as may be necessary in time
of peace. in case of disturbance in for
eign countries marines are landed tc
protect American interests.
The marine corps is a separate or
ganization from both the army and
the navy, but it is usually employed
under the direction of the navy de-
partment
1t can land in foreign country and
protect American property y without
that movement being construed as an
act of war
The United States marine comes
about as near beia4 an international
policeman as we have on earth today,
and in many~lands he haseshown his
ability to uphold the dignity of his
nation and the staunchness of mis-
loyalty and discipline
Some day when there is universal
peace and federation of the world,
the great nations will have an inter-
national police navy to preserve the
comfy of the seas. And, as Mr.. Doo-
ley might say, the marines will be on
the committee.
For he is always on the ocean, but
never at sea regarding what he should
do.-San Francisco Call.

10000 RECRUITS ARE NEEDED
Volunteers Wanted to Fill Regiments
of Infantry and Artillery.

Washington, June 13.-The war de-
partment called for 10000 additional
recruits in order to fill the regular
army to war strength before June 80.
'The cavalry, engineers, coast artil-
lery, signal corps and quartermaster
corps of the regular army have al
ready been brought to war strength -
says an official statement. "Forty-five
thousand recruits are needed at once
to complete the new regiments of in
fantry and field artillery. Twenty
five thousand additional recruits are
desired at the earliest practicable date
to fill vacancies in order that the war
strength Of 100000 men may be main
tained.
Facilities are in readiness for plac-
ing these 10000 men under proper
training. Any delay in obtaining this
number will necessarily cause the loss
of invaluable time
'It is the earnest desire of the war
department that 10000 single men be-
tween the ages of eighteen and forty,
who have no dependents and who are
not engaged in professions, businesses
or trades vitality necessary to the
prosecution of the war, be enlisted in
the regular army before June 80.

DUE TO U. s. WAR ACT
Greek Kings Abdfcation Caused
by Americas Action.
Retirement Forced When This Coun-
try Entered Fight Against Kaiser
-Venizeos May Head Republic.

Washington, June 13.-What may be
of a Grecian republic is found here in
the abdication of King Constantine of
the Hellenic kingdom in favor Of his
second son, Alexander.
There is not the slightest doubt
that Constantine's retirement was the
direct result Of the entrance of the
United States into the European war.
This was the only country to which
he could look for support against the
allies, for he was separated from
Germany by allied bayonets.
An effort was made to interest
American moral influence Represen-
tatiOns were constantly presented to
the state department; the legation
here from time to time issued bull
letins exposing the ''barbaritg" of the
methods adopted by the allies to COM
pei Greece to change it's pro- German
attitude.
The fate Of Constantine was sealed
when congress declared the existence
of a state of war with Germany. He
recognized this fact when during a
conference last week with the British
minister at Athens he promised to
make certain concessions along lines
demanded by the allies, provided the
perpetuity of his dynasty should be
recognized. The British minister de-
clined to give such a guarantee.
In the meantime popular sympathy
became stronger and stronger for
Venizelos, the former prime minister,
who has been the leader n--the move
ment to have Greece enter the war
on the side of the allies.
The question now is whether the
allies will recognize Alexander. Per-
haps they will do so if he pledges
himself to declare war against the
central powers. If he does not, they
will undoubtedly refuse him recogni-
ton, the crown will be overthrown
and Venizelos may be the first presi-
dent of the Greek republic
In this case Greece will range it.
self alongside the allies, and the
entente will be in far better posi-
tion to make knife thrust against
the central powers through the Bal
kans.
The abandonment of Greece by Con-
stantine is the direct result of a policy
designed to keep the. country out of
the war and especially to observe a
friendly neutrality TO Germany.
