THE Spirit Lake boosters for the
organization of Lake county are
beginning to let us know that
Rathdrum will be expected to join
in the move and help put the pro-
position through the coming
election and the next Legislature.
Spirit Lake has high hopes of win
ming this time and if Rathdrum
does not take some action soon, we
are informed there is a strong pro-
liability that the line will be so
drawn as to leave us just outside
OF the proposed new county, in a
pocket-or salient, which we be-
lieve is the proper military term.
1t is serious matter. Rathdrum
gave strong moral and numerical
support to the move two years ago,
and the people of the town and the
prairie are expected to get into the
game again, and sooner be left
out.

CRITICIZE
FAILURE OF GERMANS
Ill Success OF Political Offensive In
Allied Countries Brings Wrath
From Huns Ally.

Washington, July IS. -- G m n
leaders are sharply criticized, for the
failure of their political offensives in
allied countries in an editorial appear
ing in the Austrian newspaper Neues-
weiner Tagblatt copies of which have
been received here. The statement
frankly insists that if Germany has
no knowledge of the art of appreciat-
ing the souls and civilizations of other
races and of winning them over to
her cause. 1t points out that the al
lies are far better versed in the po-
litical arts and urges that the methods
OF the entente be studied by the Ger
man political class.
After pointing out that the entente
seeks to disrupt the relations of Ger
many and Austria Hungary by appeal
ing to the love of nationality found
in all peoples. the editorial insists
that such efforts will fail since history
has placed Austria Hungary inexor-
ably beside Germany.
However, in concluding the appeal.
the statement reads
Nevertheless. not to appreciate the
true worth of the method followed by
the entente would be an error. We
must use the very arms she is WELD
ing. Germany has a great duty to full
fill, task which she proved unusual
to up to this time. Her empire. that
of the most gifted race in the world,
has performed miracles of heroism,
endurance, technical achievements
and science of organization. But there
is one art which nature has refused
her, the art of seeing through the
souls and the civilization of other
races and of winning them to her
cause. Now that the destinies of num-
erous peoples are bound up in hers.
now that circumstances call her up to
the rank of organizer of Europe Ger
many cannot ignore that art any long
er.
The offensive OF the entente will
be easily repulsed. the ill-disposed
hearts will be readily reconciled to
historical facts, If only the German
people will get rid of a certain ma
tive rouEhness, IL he cares to learn
how to win souls instead of battles"
