other arm OF the service cuts off the

THE CRIME.

The Manchester Guardian calculates.
on the best available information, that,
to the first Of last month. nine and
three-quarter million men had been
killed In the war, twelve millions more
had been permanently crippled; four
and a quarter millions were held as
prisoners. one hundred and seven
billion dollars had been spent by the
warning governments. and eight bill
lion dollars worth Of property had
been destroyed,
For three weeks in July. 1914. the
Austrian government considered what
demands Il should make on Serbia in
view of the probability shat the as
sassination OF the Austrian Archduke
Franz Ferdinand had been planned by
Serhians. II was we'll known that
Russia would defend Serhia's indepen-
dence. After full deliberation Aus
tria made demands that no state cal
ling itself independent would have
submitted 20. except under compul-
sion and required absolute cOmpli-
nee within furty-eight hours. And
In this course Germany acQuiesced.
Deliberately and after full consider
alton Germany and Austria took the
chance of val in order TO further a
dyuastic purpose of the Hapsburgs.
That Is the crime which nearly ten
million dead men aud twelve million
cripples now prove against the Hohen-
tollern and Hapsburg dynasties. The
criminals viii so unpublished il those
dynasties retain their power TO upset
Che peace of the world at will-Sat-

VAN pErSEN WILL MlkE A TRIP.

Clarence Van neusen proposes max
ing a tour OF the northwestern states.
RE VIII visit the capitals OF the north
Western states for the purpose OF
studying accounting methods in vogue
i'm The land departments. After his re-
turn he will ~inaugurate a system of &C
counting and incidentally expose
transactions that have taken place in
the past Auditor Van Deusen call
culates 20 so time his exposure that
the material viii be available for the
next campaign.
Good material for the next cam
paign will be badly needed by the
present state administration. An off
set TO the transactions of Commission
or Smoot and antidote to the antics
OF Governor Alexander will be very
welcome. We are glad that Auditor
Van Deusen will make his trip. We
are doubly pleased that he has some
startling disclosures TO make.
Il is of the trip that we wish to
speak. We trust that while flying
from capital to capital Mr.. Van Deusen
American Falls press. [volume] (American Falls, Idaho) 1907-1937, 1917-09-28

will hold himself in to a reasonable
extent. Idaho has been much adyer-
tised by officials off the reservation.
Governor Alexander vent down to
Boston a year or two ago and put on
a show that almost caused a riot. I'm
favorable comment was caused
throughout the country. Mr.. Van
Deusen can do much for Idaho by
keeping quiet like a gentleman. He
could do more by staying at home.
AS he is determined to make the trip
we beseech him to 90 quietly, remain
calm and return quickly. We Of Idaho
know Van and pay little attention to
his capers. The people Of Oregon,
Washington and California do not
know him and are apt to size up the
whole state by our itinerant auditor
Caldwell Tribune.

iii NEED OF BORAH.

Senator BOrah will be told by his
friends in Idaho, as he has been told
by his friends the nation over, that he
Is needed In the United States senate
and the councils of the nation. Ger
tainly there can be no question as to
his being needed in Idaho.
Senator Borah has been requested
and urged by the people of Idaho to
permit his name to again be used as a
candidate for the office that he so ably
fills. 1t is hoped and expected that by
the time his present term expires the
war issues will have been settled, so
far as the actual physical conflict Is
concerned. The after-the-war issues
will be just as difficult of adjustment,
and as well balanced minds and as
firm hands will be needed on the ship
Of state then as now. The period OF
adjustment after the war will need as
great statesmanship as the nation
needs now, and men seasoned in the
work will be required.
II is we'll realized that in consent
ing to again make the ace for United
States senator a personal sacrifice is
~entailed. Senator BOrah has had on
ferred upon him all of the honors that
his state can give and certainly he has
earned the right to retire from active
public life and take up the matters
of personal interest and begin to lay
by that which is needed for future
years and which his present position
Toes not permit. II will be a sacrifice
to make the campaign when he could
retire filled with hOnors, but Borah is
not the caliber of man to retire when
he is needed, and he may be counted
upon to be a factor-and a big factor
in the settlement which is to come.
Borah is better known and more APP
preciated from without the state than
from within, but that is to be expected.
The nation needs Borah, and his
state certainly does.-Idaho Register,
