a derivation which makes 1t particu-
larly applicable to the Germans OF
today II was first heard, says the
Transcript, in the fourth century OF
the Christian era, when it was used as
an appellation for the horde OF
savages which swept into cehtrai
Europe from eastern Asia. They were
commanded by Attila. and desolated
the Roman colonies. The Romans
called them "Hunni" In the tenth
century they again scourged Europe
under the leadership of a chieftain
named Arpad Emperor Otto at that
time called them enemies OF God and
humanity and he refused to treat
with their ambassadors because they
did nothing but make false promises.
For centuries the word Hun has
been used TO signify persons OF nor
rible savagery or barbarism. The Ger
mans of today have furnished to the
world excellent modern limitations OF
Attila's savage warfare and ruthless
cruelty. Their ambassadors. from Won
Bernstorff down to Won Luxburg and
even to their inconspicuous consul at
Honolulu, have been as lying and
faithess as were the emissaries of
Arpad.
Hun is a good name for them, ana
they can not complain about 1t, for
their own kaiser few years ago told
his armies to revive the traditions of
Attila and his terrible Huns.

HUNS" IS THE NAME.
(Boise Statesman)


All persons speaking English refer
to the kaiser's subjects. as a general
rule as Germans" The French say
"Allemund," the Spanish say Ale
man" and the Italians refer to them
as "Tedeschi." The Boston Trans
cript deplorts this confusion of names
pleads for the universal adoption in al.
lied countries Of one common name to
characterize the enemy, and urges
that the word Hun" be generally
adopted here and abroad
The Germans do not call themselves
Germans. They refer to themselves,
when using their own tongue, as
"Deutsch." and the word Germans Is
derived from "Germanus." term ex-
pressive of contempt, first applied by
the Celtic tribes to the Rhine region
residents and later adopted by the
Romans. The English speaking peo-
pie acquired the word Germans as part
Of the heritage which the English Ian
guage received from the Latin tongue.

THE KIND OF MEN NEEDED IN
CONGRESS.

This is the peoples war. not the
and for that reason The
people should be represented In con.
yress by men who will not merely reg
ster the will of the president In con.
iucting the war. This distinction wal
inely brought out by Colonel Roose.
velt in his speech before the New
York republican convention at Sara
toga a few days ago, in which he said
Loyalty to the people Of the
United States Is the prime need.
This is the peoples war. II is not
the presidents war. 1t Is not the
war of congress, 1t is the war Of
the people of the United States.
Our whole hearted and undivided
loyalty is due to the country as a
whole, and to, every public SER
want, whether president or sena-
tor, executive official or congress-
man, precisely to the degree In
which that public servant disin-
terestedly and efficiently serves
the country. We demand loyalty
Of this type; for 1t is the only 10y
atty proper for self-respecting
American freemen.
1.-THE events of the last year and
"A half have shown the necessity of
electing a republican congress, to
support the administration at
every point where 1t acts vigor-
ously in prosecuting the war, and
to supply it's deficiencies in the
prosecution of the war and In the
carrying out Of proper world
policy. This country needs
congress which will give the ad-
ministration this kind Of vigorous
support, and yet will fearlessly
supervise and, when necessary, in
vestigate what is being done.
Since the war began the re-
publicans In congress have acted
in a spirit of the largest patrio-
tism and wholly without regard to
questions of politics. For the ad-
ministration measures designed
for efficiently carrying on the war
they have furnished larger per-
centage of support than have the
democrats, and where the admin
istration was wrong the bulk Of
the republicans have ventured to
withstand it and have stood by
the country. whereas the bulk Of
the democrats have not done so.
1t is only by such conduct that we
can win the war and secure the
right kind of peace.
'vFhe need in congress is for
loyal Americans, far-sighted,
strong willed. resolute, who shall
represent the people of this
country, and who shall stand
steadfastly by the nation as
whole"

: The Crisis in Gold Mining

grade ores. This can not be suggested
as practical solution at this time,
because immediate aid is necessary.
What is there then, that can be done
to prevent the extinction of the gold
mining industry?
Our suggestion Is that the embargo
shall be lifted upon the expectation of
all newly produced gold, and allow the
present and future gold production to
take advantage of the premiums which
now or hereafter may obtain. The
present foreign premium of per cent
is not consequential except that it
brings hope to the gold miner that he
has an even chance in the worlds
markets The Mining Congress Jour
nal now predicts that. unless some
substantial help is given to the gold
industry, gold will be at premium Of
so per cent within five years To state
it differently, currency will be depre-
ciated to 66h per cent of it's face
value. The appeal of the gold indus
try to the nation has been unheeded.
The appeal of the nation to the gold
industry will be needed, but the I'M
watering Of abandoned mines, the re-
building Of abandoned treatment
plants, the assembling of working or
CARNATIONS, will be as tedious and as
exasperatingly slow as the assembling,
the training and the equipment of an
army from raw material to meet the
oncoming rapacity of well disciplin-
ed Hun army. This country will lose
no gold by this plan because, without
aid, no gold will be produced. All gold
produced by this stimulation will be
available for purchase at whatever
premium shall prevail--and if not pur-
chased will in foreign ownership to
that extent relieve the demand upon
our own reserves.
A better plan still would be the pay
ment of bounty on all newly pro-
duced gold. such a bounty as would
cover the increase in production costs.
This plan may not be feasible because
OF public sentiment, but we must wake
up to the necessity Of doing something
even at the expense of cherished no.
tons Of conservatism.
We have learned the lesson Of pre-
paredness for war. Shall we learn the
less of preparedness for financial cat
aclysms which bring want, suffering
and starvation to every corner of the
Industrial world? We urge that the
only practical thing that seems imme-
diately possible is to cancel the en-
barge upon the expectation of newly
produced gold, allowing the present
and increasing need of gold in the
world market to operate as stimuli
ant to the gold miner to maintain his
productive machinery. and meet his
present losses cheerfully with the hope
OF recompense as the worlds demand
for gold shall be permitted to mani
fest itself

PROTECTION FROM MADE IN
GERMANY" TRADEMARK.

For years we have been buying poe
ket knives, table cutlery, tools, razors
and O multitude of other articles from
Germany, because the manufacture of
those articles was more highly de-
veloped there and we We're content to
buy there rather than build up our
own manufacture to the German STAN
dard or establish protective tariff
high enough to shut out the German
product. Whatever the reason, the
records show that we bought the goods
bearing the Made in Germany" trade
mark.
There are few people who believe
that when this war Is over the hatred
of Germany will be so great that we
shall not buy German made goods.
Quite likely we shall not buy much, II
anything. bearing the German brand.
But German industry is shrewd
enough, to put its product on the mar
ket without brand, If necessary, and
to ship it to us through other coun-
tries, thus concealing the original
source. The only safe thing for the
United States to do Is to establish an
adequate import duty, regardless Of
the origin of the imported article, and
encourage American producers to
build UP enterprises so extensive that
our home competition will result in
production at the lowest cost consist
ent with an American scale of wages.
There are some indications that the
democratic party contemplates an in
crease in import duties in the pending
revenue bill--partly to increase reve-
nues and partly to offset the tariff as
a campaign issue. II Is not likely,
however, that the American people
will be deceived by any tariff legisla-
tion based upon expediency rather
than principle, A true protective tar
iff must be framed by its friends rath-
er than its enemies. The party which
has so consistently favored one Sec
ton of the country in its tariff legis-
lation can not be trusted to frame
tariff law for the development and
Of all lines Of industry In
all parts of the United States. Any
attempt of the democratic party 20
enact protective tariff law is an ad-
mission that it has been wrong. and
that the advocates of protection should
be entrusted with the task of reestab-
fishing the economic policy under
which American manufacture was
built up.

CAN BE NO PEACE WITHOUT
COMPLETE VICTORY.

Naturally every American Is en-
Unused and joyful over the news that
comes from France telling of the con-
tnued success of our arms and the
consequent losses sustained by the
Huns and their steady and at times
almost disordery withdrawal from
the territory north of the Marine. This
Is the first great battle in which AM
they have shown the initiative, dash
and unyielding determination that has
ever characterized the American sol
der That the success which has been
won by the allied armies In the Sois-
sons-Rheims salient is one Of the
great achievements of the war Is
fact that will be recognized in his
tory regardless of the future move
ments Of the contending armies, and
it may prove to be the beginning of
great offensive that will eventually
drive the kaiser and his horde of bar
barians from the soil of France.
But those who are disposed to re-
gard our success as the immediate
forerunner of an early peace are sim
ply indulging in speculation that does
not take into account that peace to
Germany means complete abandon
ment of all for which she started the
war and for which she has been fight
ing, for the allies are firm in their re-
solve that there shall be no peace
without complete victory. No terms
of peace are to be considered until the
Hun Is whipped into submission and
is In such position that he has no al
terms formulated by the allies. That
time may be long way off, for 1t
must be borne in mind that while our
success during the past two weeks has
been severe blow to the kaiser, both
on the fighting front and upon public
opinion throughout the empire, he has
nevertheless vast resources with
which to continue the fight even
though the tide of battle Is running
us while rejoicing over our success,
to grid up our loins for several years
of aggressive warfare rather than to
think and talk of an early peace. 1t Is
universal human tendency to relax
when the end of heavy task is in
view, and that effect may be produce
ed on some minds when we talk of an
early peace and point to the Hun re-
verse on the Marine as the beginning
OF the end The very opposite effect
is the one most desired at this time,
for while hoping for an early victory
that will insure lasting peace, we must
bear in mind that the only way to
shorten the war is to redouble our
efforts in support of the government
in order to force the fight with ever
increasing energy. Think and talk

IDAHO STILL SHORT ON WAR
STAMP SALES.

According to recent statement by
Ex-Governor Hawley. director of war
savings for Idaho, this state is one of
the few in the west which has failed
to subscribe its full quota of war saw
ings stamps. Idaho has subscribed
about as per cent, and of course, as
Governor Hawley says, nothing less
than 100 per cent performance will
satisfy the loyal citizens of Idaho.
This state has not fallen behind in
any of the war demands of the gov
eminent; in fact, 1t has invariably
gone over the top. Governor Hawley
is now preparing to make a campaign
of publicity which he hopes will re-
suit in wiping out the deficiency and
