10 GERMANS OUTSIDE GERMANY

We cannot help thinking that
there is in Germany a considerable
body of feeling, however inarticu-
late, that begins to realiae that the
permanent welfare of the German
people is not to be assured BY the
government or the policy that led
the nation into this war. We are
perfectly sure that, among those, Of
German blood who have not been
subjected to half century OF thor
ough and determined Prussianization
that feeling is widespread.
On successive days in May the
newspapers printed significant ut
FRANCES from two eminent men of
German ancestry, one in Switzerland
and one in America.
Prof. Paul Seippel of the great
technical school at Zurich, speaking
to his German-Swiss brothers, said:
Tell the truth to Germany; she is
dying for the want of it, and you are
the only ones to whom she will lis
ten, for she knows you wish her
we'll. Tell her how the war began,
how lies were told and continue to
be told. how promises were broken
and how all that followed, even to
the entrance of America into the
war, is the consequence of that first
crime. Tell her how the Judgment
of the world has fallen upon her.
Tell her this instead of repeating
like an echo the petty arguments
with which she soothes her troubled
conscience. Will not the German
Swiss help Germany to take her
place again among the nations, free
and equal before the law"
In our own country Mr.. Otto
Kahn, the German-AmerIcan banker
of New York, spoke In the same
vein. This appalling conflict" he
said, ''is not a fight of people against
people. It goes deeper than that; it
divides the soul and conscience of
the world Speaking as one born
of German parents, 1t is my deep
conviction that the greatest service
men of German birth or antecedents
can render to the land Of their origin
is to proclaim and stand up for the
great and fine ideals, for the SPLEEN
did national qualities and traditions
that they and their ancestors inner
tied, and to set their faces like flint
against the monstrous doctrines and
acts of rulership that has robbed
them Of the Germany they loved and
that had the admiration and affec-
ton of the world. The more whole
heartedly they throw themselves in
to the struggle on which this coun-

SEWERAGE SYSTEM WILL
PROBABLY BE INSTALLED

Engineer Riley of Idaho Falls, who
has been here for several weeks
making a survey for a sewerage sys-
tenn, finds that gravity system can
be easily installed. Last Monday
night Mr.. Riley met with the coun-
ell and number OF citizens and gave
an outline of the cost OF installing a
sewer extending from Fifth street
west and two blocks on each side of
Main street. After a general dis
cussion, during which many ques-
tions were asked Mr.. Riley, it was
declared to be the sense OF the meet
ing that the council proceed with the
installation of sewer, If the engi-
neer's figures regarding cost, ETC.,
were found to be correct. Mr.. RiIey's
report is being checked UP by City
Engineer Birch and ]. J. Taylor. Next
week we will publish report of the
engineer, giving the territory to be
included in the sewerage district, cost
of installing the same and other par
ticulars. The indications are that
the council will next week be able
to pass resolution creating q sew
erage district and take the prelimi-
nary steps towards installing the
same.

WRITES ABOUT FISH DE-
STRUCTION IN BEAR LAKE

Congressman Addison It. Smith
forwards to the Examiner the fol
lowing letter which he recently re-
ceived from the U. s. Commissioner
Of Fisheries with reference to fish
conditions in Bear Lake:
Hon. Addison T. Smith,
Washington, d. G..
My dear Sir:
duly received your letter of
June 4, relative to the destruction of
trout and whitefish in Bear Lake at
Montpelier, Idaho, said to be due to
carp, and have noted the sugges-
ton of Mr.. D. g. Stuart, of Mont
pelier, Idaho, that catfish be intro
duied as a means of getting rid of
the carp.
In reply you are advised that any
species that would exterminate the
carp would be equally harmful to the
fish which it is desired to safeguard.
Furthermore. carp, although not OF
superior quality, are yet a substan-
tial and wholesome item of the coun-
try's food supply, apd it is believed
that the best interests would be
subserved by seining them out as
far as practicable and distributing
them for consumption rather than
by attempting their wholesale re-
moval or destruction.
The bureau, with the information
at hand, cannot accept the state
ment that the carp are destroying
the trout and whitefish of Bear
Lake. In fact, we very much doubt
whether the carp has anything what
ever to do with any diminution of
trout and whitefish that may have
occurred, as a great abundance of
carp may be, and in various other
lakes is, entirely compatible with an
abundance of trout and whitefish.
The bureau has had no recent report
ON conditions in Bear Lake, but
number of years ago the fishing for
trout was conducted in very reck-
less manner, and called forth a re-
port from the fish commissioner of
which the following extract is TAX
en-:
/ have the honor to invite
your attention to q sad condi-
tion existing at Bear Lake which
mutually and injuriously at
fects the fish interests of both
Idaho and Utah. About the 29th
of May last l had occasion to
visit Bear Lake for the purpose
of collecting eggs of our native
trout for our state hatchery:
knowing that this variety of
trout began spawning about the
25th of May. I reached the
north end OF the main lake from
Montpelier In company with
Mr.. Frank Richards, deputy fish
and game warden of your state
in that locality. We found fish
running as / had expected and
trying to get to their accus-
toned spawning grounds in st.
Charles Creek, the principal
spawning stream running into
the lake, but they could not
reach the mouth OF the stream
at all without running their
heads into gill nets. We found
three or four gangs of fisher
men will gill nets stretched from
the shore two hundred yards out
into the lake for a mile and q
half on either side OF the
mouth of the creek or stream.
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1917-07-06

so that it was an impossibility
for single fish to escape or
reach the mouth of the stream
where they had been used TO
spawn. These fishermen with
gill nets and set lines were kill
ing about a ton Of these spawn
ing fish per day and destroyed
in the near neighborhood of one
million eggs that would in thir-
ty days longer have become liv-
ing fish. To me 1t was a griev-
GUS and shameful waste of ma
lures bounty; and a very few
years Of such prodigality will
deyastate the lake of this most
excellent species of food fish.
Very truly yours.
