This question of reparatiOn brings
up the matter of commercial boycott.
Many authorities assert that the only
way Germany can pay will be by OBJ
tanning raw materials from the coun-
tries she has been fighting and selling
her products in their markets. Very
likely the peace conference will declare
not be so easy to persuade the peoples
of the allied nations to buy German
made goods. Most OF them would pre-
fer to see Germany reduced to the ro-
sit1oh she has earned for herself. to
have such money as can be taken from
her, and to let the rest of the financial
reparation 60 by the board. Austria,
too, is making the loud wall for raw
materials and markets. DIR. Franz
Klein, who will represent at the peace
conference the so-called Austrian re-
public, provided he is admitted, is re
lying especially ON America to be
fair" and to solve the troubles of the
late empire so that an the republics
can live in peace and prosperity. Solne
| job!
Conditions in Germany are almost
as uncertain as i'm Russia after the
fall of Kerensky. Just who or what
comprises the government it is hard to
say. Premier Ebert and his moderate
socialist colleagues are still the nomi
nal rulers of Prussia. but DIR. Kari
Liebknecht and his Spartacus grouI
of socialists-the German equivalent
of the bOlsheviki-aFe vigorously
fighting to get the upper hand. They
are especially strong in Berlin, which
is in a state of great disorder. It II
reported that Liebknecht has 15.00t
men well armed and is planning q ter
rorist revolution. He reviles Ebert fO
asking food from America, for, sine,
this is conditioned on the maintenanc
of order, lit is yielding to a capitals

The Sign.
"a lovers ardent devotion is rarely

so much lip service?"
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1918-12-13

The all-Russian government at Omsk
appears to be gaining in stability, but
the bofsheViki have not let up in their
trouble-making. An irruption of Reds
into Esthonia has alarmed the govern
ment there, numbering, burning and
plundering being unhindered. 1.-Two
MIA also has been Invaded by them.
A call for help by sea was sent out,
and few days ago a British fleet ar
rived at Libau. The vessels probably
viii proceed to Revel and land men to
stop the slaughter. The bolshevik au.
thorities in western Russia have turn
ed back 100000 Russian soldiers who
have been prisoners in Germany, and
it was reported that the men had seiz
ed four ships at DanZig which the
| British Red Cross had obtained from
Germany for the housing of prisoners

To meet what are locked upon as ex-
ceptionally dangerous nre conditions
In the national forests 4 loan of 81
100000 has been made to the forest
service from the Presidents special

In some ways the most serious with
which the government ever has had
to deal. Early drought. high winds.
electrical storms. labor shortage and
depletion OF the regular protective
force because of the war have COM
bined to intensity the fire danger.
Timber necessary for airplanes.. gun

vate secretary today that he would

In his report to be presented to

there appeared on the books at that
time a balance which was not
vouchered.
Il called the attention Of the gov
ernor to 1t. and he said 1t would be
adjusted immediately. I concluded to
make a more extensive and complete
examination, which extended over
several weeks This examination dis
closed the fact that there were orders
drawn by ex-Auditor Graham to him
self during his term of Office amount
ing to $1,000. and there were two
orders amounting to 5000. the avails
of which he had charged In two diff

ceipts was during my term of odice." !"
Mr. Williams said that Gov. Gra-
ham, while auditor, paid the expenses
of his department by his own checks

ZURICH. August 17.-Berlin bur-
glary insurance companies report that
payments Of losses in 1917 were
equivalent to. 31.0oo.ooo. as against
100000 In the first year of the war.
The Prussian state railroads paid in
demnity for thefts in 1914 of $s4o. 200,
as against $11. 4oo. 600 last year.
A South German insurance paper
says that conditions there are no
better. because the losses by bur-
glary have increased four-fold during
the war. People ship no goods il
they can find other means of trans
portation.
The paper attributes the increased
thefts to lack OF parental control,
plus the lure Of the enormous value
Of all goods. from foodstuffs to worn
clothing.
