loyal; his tendencies were strongly
anarchistic; and that he was turbu-

BRAZIL STRAFES GERMAN

AGENTS OF KAISER

RIO GRANDE DO Sui, Brazil :
Brazil, now that it has entered the war
is having it's spy scare and it has
become more general even than in
some of the other belligerent coun-
tries. 1t is only necessary for a per-
son to be a foreigner and a stranger
in any Brazilian town to become the
object of suspicious regard by the
people and even of police surveillance.
Orders have gone out from Rio de
Janeiro for the arrest of large num-
bers of Germans, many of whom ap-
pear to be innocent business men, al
though there is no doubt but that Ger
man espionage is we'll organized in
southern Brazil. Spies are reported
to have been especially active in the
state of San Paulo and the govern
ment has taken rigid measures for
watching all suspects there.
AS soon as the government began
these measures of precautions, how
ever, large number of rich and we'll
known German business men who were
under suspicion of being German gov
ernment agents succeeded in escaping
into the the Argentine Republic with
whatever secrets they have had.

BRIEF TERM FOR
NEW APP0|NTEE
SENATOR NAMED BY GOVERNOR
WILL HOLD OFFICE UNTIL
ELECTION ONLY

BOISE-The appointment to be made
by Governor Alexander to the United
States senate thereby filling the va
cancy caused by the death of the late
James H. Brady, only holds good to
the next general election and is not
for the unexpired period of the term
of the deceased, which would carry
the appointee over to 1921. This is
made plain in a ruling by Attorney
General T. A. Walters made Wednes-
day.
Following the death of Senator
Brady, Governor Alexander wrote the
attorney general asking for his con-
struction on the emergency law en-
powering him to fill the vacancy, and
as passed by the last legislature. The
governor felt the law was a little am
biguous.
No action has been taken by Cover
nor Alexander toward appointing the
successor of the late Senator Brady.
Petitions and kilograms from the
friends of the several prominent Demo-
Gratis mentioned, including James H.
Hawley, John F. Nugent, Harry L.
Day and others are pouring into the
governors office. These petitions have
been circulated by friends ofrthe var
ious candidates, for they bear the
same petition and are signed as petit
tions usually are. Governor Alexander
inferred, when discussing them, that
the messages that are receiving the
most consideration are those that are
spontaneous and no inspired by pro-
paganda on behalf of any of the candi-
dates.

SHORT LINES
NOT ESSENTIAL
T0bE RELEASED
M'ADOO ANNOUNCES GOVERN
MENT WILL NOT OPERATE IN
NECESSARY RAILROADS
MAY TAKE OVER CANALS
INLAND WATERWAYS CONTROL
POSSIBLE UNDER ANNOUNC-
ED NECESSITY POLICY

WASHINGTON. = The so called
short" line railroads of the country
will be released from government con-
troll and operation as soon as an in
vestigation now under way makes pos
sible the determining of roads consid-
cred unessential in the present emerg-
ency. This was the burden of state
ment made by William G. McAdoo,
secretary of the treasury and admin
istrator of the nations railway sys-
TENS, when summoned before the sem
ate interstate commerce committee to
ment administration of the transporta-
tion lines.
Canals May be Operated
Announcing that he does not pro-
| pose to maintain control of unneces-
sary lines and that the government
| by no means intends to compensate
those not taken over on the net earn
ings basis promulgated when govern
ment operation became a reality on
December 2S, Secretary McAdoo went
on to state that, consistent with the
policy of necessity to which he is
adhereing, canals considered essential
may be taken over and government
operation may be extended to inland
waterways generally.
"As far as | can see after three
weeks of investigation he said re-
ferring to the decision with regard
to the short lines, II do not con-
template taking over any roads not
deemed absolutely necessary for the
governments war purposes. If some
interests are necessarily hurt by this
announcement they will have to stand
it,
Blow at Government Ownership
The PRONUNCIATION of this policy by
the railroads administration is under
stood to strike a blow at the theory
held by many of the nations econ
omists that government operation and
control will, because of the benefits
expected to materialize within the
to come, be made a perman-
ent thing.
The effect of the announcement on
the stock quotations of some of the
so-called short line system is be-
ing watched with keen interest
WASHINGTON" seems to me the
short lines are hollering before they
are hit" said Secretary of the Treas
II and Railroads Administrator Will
am G. McAdoo this afternoon in a
statement made this afternoon in
urther explanation of the govern
nents policy of railroad operation be-
ore the senate committee on inter-
state commerce. "The bill should
provide compensation for those rail-
'oads that are used and injured and
or no Others"
Secretary McAdoo told the commit
ee, however, that some of the small
Independent short lines feared bank
uptcy if the government took con-
rol' of the large trunk lines. 1t was
uggested by Senator Smith, commit
ee chairman, that the Short lines
