It will be absolutely necessary to have at least 80 per cent of ! the minimum strength accounted for at the Federal inspection. Gen England says:
 ''In view of the probable calling out of the Guard at an early date, it would be the endeavor of every Battalion Commander to see that their respect i've companies are recruited up to war strength, in case where it will be inn possible to do so at this home stations, a platoon should be organized at nearby town. The platoon at the headquarters of the company must have at least Al men and the second platoon at an adjacent town must have at least B men,"

Little Rock, March 2S.-The House Committee on Enrolled Bills submitted the last of the House bills to the Governor for his consideration at 1 D. m. yesterday, and the Senate bills were turned in later in the evening. Gov. Brough will dispose of all of them today.

"oLD PUTS" EXAMPLE ;


When Israel Putnam, "OId Put"
as he is known in history, heard that
war had broken out between the thir-
teen American colonies and Great
Britain he left his pillow standing in
the field, mounted one OF the horses
and made haste to get into the thick
of the fight. He did not file any
claims for exemption on account of
being a farmer or because he had de-
pendent relatives, but buckled on his
sword and went looking for redcoats
There were many others like "Old
Put" in the days of the revolution
Had this not been the fact the re-
public would never have been estab-
lished and we who are so proud of
our American citizenship would have
been subjects of King George today.
Undoubtedly there were slack
ers" in the colonies who evaded mill
itary duty during the seven long
years of the revolution--men who
would be slaves rather than risk
their lives in battle for freedom.
There were men in the civil war days
who not only refused to enlist but
became rioters when drafted. But
there were enough Of the boys in blue
to save the union and their descend
ants take great pride in the achiev-
ments Of the patriots who responded
to the call Of Abraham Lincoln. On
the other hand we never heard of
any one boasting that their father or
grandfather had rebelled against the
government when drafted or even
furnished substitute, a practice not
allowed under the present law.
The young men OF today owe some
thing to the memory OF the heroes OF
1851 and 1916. II they have any
pride in family name or family rec
ord they will do their full duty in
this crisis in order that their de.
scendants may not have to remain
silent when the world war is dis
cussed, while blushing with shame
for their ancestors. The selective

expected because it could not be for.

REVIVAL OF ROMAN DEsPOT1saa

Everyone who knows anything OF
the history Of the Roman empire,
and who has followed the modern
development Of Germany. will see
much in the latter to remind him of
the despotism of the former in its
bloodiest days. Later Rome was as
different from early Rome an mid
night is from MONDAY. And the
same is true of the earlier and the
modern Germany. The earlier Ger
many was noted for its knighthood,
it's chivalry, its music. its literature,
its learning and its ort. Within the
last hundred years. particularly the
past fifty years, Germany has been
losing the soul of her better self.
Cursed with an Unsuitable lust for
power, she has bent every energy,
every resource. every cent Of her
wealth, every particle OF her man
hood and every Christian ideal to at
tain this power. She has sold ner
soul and the soul of her people in
her satanic quest. Emperor VIII
liam, like Nero and others Of his ilk
in ancient Rome. has stopped TO
crimes unimaginable in civilization.
To speak the plain truth, NO barbar-
GUS nation has so far committed such
depredations as has Germany during
the last three years. Even the Huns
in making their raids upon the
crumbling Roman empire and upon
the city of Rome itself were con-
strained to leave untouched those
priceless cathedrals and masterpieces
OF art which they found in the pos
session Of their captive people. But
not so with these modern Huns.
They will leave no piece of art un-
touched. No cathedral lie sacred to
them. What do they care. for the
most magnificent and costly temples
erected to honor the Christ, when
they have tramp1ed His teachings
under their unhallowed feet Nor
do they care what atrocities they
commit against innocent combat
ants. Never in civilized warfare
has it been known that the soldiers
of a warning nation would commit
such depredations against innocent
women and children as German sol
diers have again and again commit
ted upon the women and children OF
every people they have over-run
Not content with this, Germany has
made depreciation after depreciation
upon non-combatants in France and
England. She has raided property
and human lives upon the high seas
against all laws of God and man
whether foe or neutral made no diff
ference. She has wantonly insulted
nearly every flag on earth, so shame
fully that no less than twenty-foul
nations have broken diplomatic re
lations with her. and thirteen have
actually taken up arms to defend

one of price. Foreign governments
are competing as never before in our
markets for railway equipments and
supplies. The Russian railway sys-
tenn has practically broken down and
it has been reported to our govern
ment and to locomotive builders that
the main thing needed to keep Rus
STA In the war is to rehabilitate her
transportation system. Russia needs
1000 new locomotives before Janu-
airy /, and 1000 new locomotives
next year. If she does not get them
she may cease to be q factor in the
war and that may mean an increase
OF hundreds Of thousands or even
of millions in the number of soldiers
the United States will have to send
to France. Now, Russia, If she is to
get those locomotives. must-get them
In the United States. Furthermore,
England and France viii need a
thousand locomotives from this coun-
try within the next year. The max
imum capacity of our locomotive
plants is only about $500 q year.
Therefore, IL the railways of the u
s. should get all the new locomotives
they need, it would be impossible for
the plants in this country to make
enough for our European allies, and
the final results might be very dis
astrous.

their national rights and the rights
OF humanity.
And another thing. in . way even
more heinous. she has apparently
brought. under her own nefarious
subsection her own allies. Everyone
knows that Turkey and Bulgaria,
and even Austria-Hungary are only
so many catspaws in Germany'si
hands. whether Germany is VIC
torious against the entente allies or
not, she is apparently already victor
ious over her own allies, and. IL per-
mitted, will assert her victory at the
peace parliament when it shall be
held. In a very true sense, anoma-
lous as it may seem, the entente al
lies are fighting for Germany's all
lies and for their right to place in
the sun. Can anything be more un-
just, more unhuman, more despotic
than to turn upon ones allies thus
and undermine their national rights?
One is convinced that Germany is,
at least in her ruling class, wholly
depraved, thoroughly bad, irremed-
ALLY unregenerate. And IL she
should be victorious in arms--God
FORBID it!-she would wreak her ven
geance upon her victims to gener-
ations yet unborn.--Twin Falls

LET CROPS GO TO WASTE
is ORDER OF L. w. w

Spokane-Circulars calling TOR a
general strike OF the Industrial
Workers OF the World August 90 un-
less "all union men now held as
class war prisoners are released from
jails before that date" have been
mailed to each local union of the or
ganization in Montana, washington,
Oregon and Idaho, according to a
statement made Wednesday by Jas.
Rowan, district secretary OF the In
dustrial Workers OF the World. Row
an also said that the governors OF the
four states have been notified that
the strike will begin unless the men
are released.
Two circulars were mailed-one
to construction workers and the 9th
er to agricultural workers. The con-
struction workers were advised in
the circular to 'iay down their tools
and protest against the systematic
persecution that has bee carried on
against our members
The agricultural workers were In
instructed to let the harvest go to
waste and the fruit rot ON the
ground.
Rowan in his circulars says that
the Industrial Workers of the World
have been arrested, thrown into jails
and held without charges being pre-
ferrsd against them. He charged that
the men are practically starved and
beaten. The circulars also state that
in addition to the release of the men
a strike will be called unless the I.
w. w. receive an eight-hour day on.
construction work and a ten-hour
day in the harvest fields, better san
itary conditions. no discrimination
against union men for being such,
and that union halls must be allowed
to conduct legitimate business of or
ganizing the workers without inter-
ference.
According to Rowan's estimate,
$1,000 men are members of the In
dustrial Workers OF the World in the
four states.

Senator Warren of Wyoming, has
announced that he will retire when
his present term expires. This means
that there will be a lively" contest
for the nomination for U. s. senator
on the republican ticket in that state
next year. In fact. the fight ia al
ready on, for Hon. John w. Hay OF
Rock Springs, announced himself
last week as a candidate for the nom
nation. He has been a resident of
Wyoming since 1886 and has resid-
ed at Rock Springs for the past IT
years. He is president of the Rock
Springs National Bank He is also
largely interested in stock growing.
Mr. Hay stands highly with to peo-
pie of southern wyoming and will
no doubt make a strong race for the
nomination.
It is certain that he will have as
one opponent Congressman MondeII,
and there will likely be others as
piring for this honor. However,
should the race be between Hay and
Mondell only, 1t Will be spirited one
for Mr.. Mondell has proven himself
to be somewhat of a vote getter
That he stands we'll in the state il
evidenced by the fact that he was
the only republican in Wyoming
who escaped the democratic landslide
last year. whichever of these two
men win the nomination they are
pretty certain OF being elected and
the people OF Wyoming will be as
sured OF having an able represents
tive. in the upper branch Of Con
gress.

WHY RAILROAD COMPANIES
DO NOT INCREASE EQUIPMENT

1t may be asked why In the pres
ent emergency the railways do not
more largely increase their equip
ment and other facilities? There are
several reasons:-First. prices are
enormously high. 4 steel hopper car
which three years ago cost $500. 90,
now costs $4,000. A MalIet locomot-
i've which three years ago cosa $50
600 now costs 100000. But there
