The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1917-06-04

In these days when everybody
talks recruiting, from Roosevelt to
Billy Sunday, it's interesting to
realize that not only are armies and
navies and churches filed by discreet
advertising, but there was once a
town that was supplied with settlers
in the same up to date way.
; The traveller to Liverpool saves a
whole day by going to Halifax in
stead of New York Therefore the
tidy little capital of Iowa Scotia is
an asset in war time, considering the
way the U-boats sing the Hymn Of
Hate. Considering also that Canada
is supplying 100000 Of the very best
troops our Allies have.
And Halifax was the town that
was recruited.
This is the story. The Earl of
Halifax, head of the Lords Commits
sioners of Trade and Commerce in
1749, received a request from Boston
that a fortified settlement be placed
somewhere between it and the
French at Quebec who had an I'M
comfortable habit Of raiding south
ward.

The earl sized up the situation, an
ticipated by $50 years the method of
the Beer that Made Milwaukee Fa-
nous and the Car that Saved Hy.
Ford from Oblivion-and advertised.
For two months London news
papers carried ads to the effect that
any private of any regiment dis
banded since the recent French wars,
would receive free passage, free
grant of land of fifty acres. freedom
from taxes for ten years, free arms,
agricultural. fishing and building i'm
Elements and free food for twelve
months.
Two thousand five hundred and
seventy-six adventures signed on.

of today, they were Germans-Hes-
slams and Brunswickers from George
IFS mercenaries.
Could Bernstorff have left his boat
when the Canadian authorities de-
tanned him at Halifax recently he
would undoubtedly have looked up
some of their descendants-loyal
Britishers now. Perhaps he might
even have topped off his visit by
taking the Dominion Atlantic Rail-
way line to the township of Clements
in the beautiful apple-blossomed An
napolis Valley, between old Port
Royal and Digby, where, at the close
of the Revolutionary War, German
settlers from the United States were
placed on farms in two parallel lines,
still known respectively as the Wal
deck and the Hessian Line.

Observation-Disclosures WIPED OUT

ST. JOHNS. n. F., June 4 The
part played by the Newfoundland regi-
ment in the fighting about Monchy is
described in a letter received by the
governor of the colony from a gener-
al serving in France. The regiment
was brought up to relieve the troops
holding Monchy, "our most advanced
and most important point" and was
sent forward to gain more ground.
Two companies pushed on beyond the
objective and rushed wood in which
they saw masses of Germans. A ter
rifle fight followed. OF the two COM
panies, only one man returned. His
only comment was that it was the
most glorious fighting" he had ever
been in. ~

cies by proceeding against delinquent
properties"
Under q former city administration
a deficiency Of $4,000 in the special
improvement fund was caused. for
two reasons. which deficiency the city
eventually had to make good. It was
the practice If property owner waiv.
cred on an improvement, assuming the
privilege Of taking ten years to pay
off his assessment, but later, before
the expiration Of the waiver, paid OF
his assessment in full, to turn such
payments into the general fund in
stead of placing the payment to the
credit of the improvement bond issue
in question; and it was also a custom
to make up all delinquencies out Of
the general fund. 1t was only natural
that large deficiency arose.

Lord Northcliffe Predicts Long Way

Discrediting recent reports OF inter

the weakening of that nation in the
war, Lord Northcliffe, distinguished
British editor and publisher, and
head of the British war mission, yes
terday told 200 editors of seven of
the middle western states at lunch

that the war had just begun. st is
impossible that this should be a short
war" he declared. There are no
facts which will form the basis for
such an opinion. The German Reich
stag, unlike our Congress and Parlla-
ment, has little or no power save
that of the passage of few appropri-
ations. While it is possibly true that
one-third of the German population
has become sickened of war, the rul-
ing two-thirds are firm in their convic-
ton that the war is being prosecuted
successfully to a victorious culmina-
ton for their government
