GERMAN TERROR
EFFECTS MORALE
TOLD THAT FEARFUL TORTURE
AWAITS THEM IF THEY
ARE CAPTURED
BY w. S. F0RREST

PARIS-German aviators are being
told by their superior officers that
capture by the French or Americans
means torture. Evidence come from
the front today of the enenly's growing
lack of air morale and the fear with
which he enters combat.
Near the headquarters OF the Lafay-
cite Escadrille, Aviator Caller, French
flyer of an escadrille working in con-
junction with the American birdmen,
attacked a German biplane. Twenty
five well placed shots wounded the
enemy pilot in the arm. The latter,
obsessed by fear of capture became
so frightened that he almost lost con-
troll of his machine. He hurriedly
and ungracefully planed down to the
nearest pint and landed. 1t was be-
hind the French lines. He could have
easily maneuvered in such a manner
as to reach the German lines in safety
The story of the German airman s
fear developed when he was questioned
by his French and American captors.
He explained that, during the combat,
his machine gunner had hidden in the
body of the biplane too much afraid to
look at the attacking French machine.
Before leaving their aerodrone both
had been Impressed that they would be
doomed to hideous physical agony if
captured They were accordingly re-
lieved when told that prison camp
with better food than they might ex-
pect in Germany was the worst they
could expect.

SHERIFFS HAVE
TWO INVITATIONS
FOR SAME DATE
T. T. CAMPBELL INVITES THEM
TO MOSCOW; GOV. ALEXAN-
DER TO COEUR D'ALENE

Sheriff Campbell will go to Spokane
this evening for conference with the
Idaho Council of Defense in relation
to the meeting to be held at the court
house in this city Saturday afternoon
to complete the organization OF the
Jatah County Protective association.
Tuesday Sheriff Campbell wired an
urgent invitation to all the sherlffs OF
the panhandle counties of north Idaho
and to the sheriffs of the Washington
counties adjoining north Idaho to meet
with him here Saturday to devise ways
and means for handling the present
situation. These sheriffs accepted the
invitation and Sheriff Campbell was
counting on an important conference
between the peace officers, the farmers
Of Latah and adjoining counties and in
terested citizens in general.
But today Sheriff Campbell received
the following telegram:
Coeur d,Alene, Ida, July IL. 1917.
~. J. Campbell, Sheriff: A meeting
of the county sheriffs will be held at
the Hotel Idaho, Occur d'Alene, Satur-
day, July IA, at 10 a. NJ. You are
urgently requested to be present.
IN. ALEXANDER, Governor.
This upset Sheriff Campbell's plans
so completely that he decided to go to
Spokane and lay the whole matter be-
fore the Idaho Council of Defense in
the hope that it could be arranged to
have the meeting held in Moscow.
II heard Governor Alexander say in
Coeur d'Alene," Sheriff Campbell said;
that he was anxious to meet the
farmers and discuss tn situation with
them; and it seems to me that Moscow
is much the better place for this meet
ing as the farmers of this and adjoining
counties will meet here anyhow

authorities to have these boys remain at
home and help with the work. The COM

week earlier than usual so that the boys
can get back to farm life.
