gates recently arrived in Stockholm.
where they tried to start negotiations
with tho German minister. The Firms
claimed TO be representatives OF the
Nationalist party and wanted a prom

They declared that Finland would

the provisional government In Petro-
grad would take vigorous military
measures to prevent the secession.
According to the statements of the
delegates. the proposed Finnish repub-
lie could quickly raise volunteer

whom have had military training. but
the country has few efficient officers
and no arms and ammunltions. These

STATE ISSUES PERMITS

The cases against. F. E. MCGUIRE,
Clarence Clannin, Marshall LeBaron,
Fred c. Choate, j. P. johnson Ed
and w. F. E. Harlacher, and Ben
Murray, farmers of the Teakean Sec
ton, charged with burning slashing
without permits, were, on motion Of
County Attorney Smith, dismissed
Tuesday by Probate Judge Todd, in
open court. State Fire Warden
Chas. Fisher, who caused the arrest
of the farmers, visited the Teakean
and Cavendish districts Monday and
went over the matter with the
farmers, issuing permits and render
ing such assistance as he found the
various cases required. There seems
to be disposition on both sides to
cooperate, and farmers desiring to
burn should make it their business to
see Mr.. Fisher and get permits before
setting fires. AS an officer it he.
comes the state fire wardens' duty tc
enforce the law. and the permits are
necessary to stop promiscuous viola.
tions that will endanger farmers al

Has Reached France.

Not long ago Chas. McEachron, son
of MIR. and Mrs. C. D. McEachron of
this place, visited his parents. The
young man had enlisted in the Engi-
neering corps of the United States
army, and was then enroute to train
ing camp. This was only about six
weeks ago. Monday a cablegram was
received announcing his arrival in
France. Evidently the young man
went straight from Orofno to some
port where transports were in waiting
and as usual all information as to the
departure was kept secret for the p. O.
lection of the men. German spies,
gaining this information, and inform
ing German submarines, would be q
grave menace to the safety of oul
boys. This is the reason our govern.
ment is maintaining such secrecy,
and Why we should be satisfied with
no news about troop movements.

Some Corn Crop.

Here is the best corn story that has
come to our attention, but anyone &C.
quainted with our soil and the kind of
corn we grow will not question it for
one moment. The story is that one
of our corn growers missed one Of his
boys and search revealed the lad had
climbed corn stalk to see how the
corn was getting along. But when
the boy tried to come down he found
the corn was growing faster than he
could descend. In short time the
boy was plumb out of sight. Three
men undertook to cut the stalk down
with axes and save the boy from star
walton, but the corn grew SO fast they
could not hack twice in the same
place. The poor boy was compelled
to live on raw corn, and at last &C.
counts had thrown down four bushels
of cobs.
