HOLDING THE LINES At HOME.

Germany gathers for her last des
front expect her assault daily and are
ready for it. The curtain is about to
rise on the bloodiest war drama Of his
tory. The men who are to bear the
brount Of Germany's attack which will
be pushed with the frenzy OF despair
and in an insanity OF carnage stand
firm and confident before the threat.
And we, safe here at home gather in
groups and proudly aver in our conf
dence in those men that They will
will hold. Germany will never pass.
Here at home, where a large per-
centage of families are refusing to OBJ
serve the meatless and wheatless days:
here at home where a percentage Of
dealers join with that percentage Of
consumers in condemning the conser-
walton measures. all OF which are war
measures: here at home where some Of
us put profits ahead Of patriotism;
here at home where a controversy over
a wage scale halts the work on ships
that must carry food to our own men
and our allies, standing waiting that
desperate assault.
No man has insnuated or even
thought that American soldiers in the
battle line would not stay 10 the last
moment and hght for the last inch Of
advantage. Nobody feels any other
way about that. But reversing the case

Citizen seeking more comforting eX-
PLANTATION says il does not believe that
the election of a chairman OF the re-
publican national committee was de-
cided on the basis Of Mr.. Adams let
ter What We read between the lines,
the Citizen continues, was a contest
between the east and the west. with
men like Perkins and Penrose opposed

that he is disloyal: but" 1t adds, the
fact that he took UP the cudgels for
Germany at time when neutrality
should have at least impelled silence
on his part shows him to have been,
TO say the least, unwise.
No word has been spoken accusing
Mr. Adams OF disloyalty to this coun-
try. No such word is likely to be
spoken. Then why denial OF disloyal-
ty when no such charge has been
brought Surely such insistent de-
tense OF an unquestioned loyalty is re-
dundant and unnecessary.
Mr.. Adams made a serious political
error. sedious. SO far. only as to his
own ambitions to lead the republicans
of his nation and state. He made an
other OF similar character when his
vote was one Of three in the Iowa
council when it condemned the coudse
horses and all the kings men can not
set Mr. Adams leadership up again, at
least while we are at war.
Those mistakes have been serious for
Mr. Adams ambitions so Tar. They
may become most serious for the re-
publican party il Mr. Adams and his
friends in the party insist on ignoring
them, apologizing for them or continue
to insist on continuing him as gen.
eraiismo. Neither the pro-German let
ter written for publication nor the vote
in defense of LaFollettte are epaulets
to win party or public confidence. Per
haps those mistakes or convictions,
whichever they are. might be explained
but in the present state OF the public
mind the American voter Is certain to
be impatient OF explanation. Present
rehabilitation OF Mr. Adams as safe
party leader is impossible. To attempt
it would be political error. holding
as fatal probabilities against party
success as the mistakes. or convictions
made or held by Mr.. Adams were
fatal to the consumma,ion OF his am

WOODSMEN GRANTED
SMALL WAGE INCREASE
New Scale to Be Effective August in
Entire Inland Empire-8-Hour
Day and 1000 Pay Raise.

The new wage scale for lumber and
timber workers which has been ar
ranged by Colonel Brice p. Disque,
head of the spruce division, has been
received in Spokane.
One important feature of the new
schedule is that it recognizes the eight
hour day, which has been strongly con-
tended for by the men.
Three important changes in the scale
affect the common laborer, the swamp
ers and the sawyers. Common labor
has received 4015 cents an hour, or
1926 a day; the new scale will be 45
cents an ohur, or $500 a day. The
swampers have received 43A cents an
hour, or $3.50 a day; the new scale is
AZ cents an hour, or 1915 a day. The
sawyers have received 46% cents an
hour, or 1915 day; the new scale is
so cents an hour, or 81 a day.

OUR INDIANS PUZZLE GERMANS.
Scouts, by Cunning, Escape Waiting
Huns-Swim Under Water and
Camouflaee Faces.

With the American Army on the
Aisne-Marne Front.-The American
Indians in France quickly adjusted
themselves to the conditions of the
country They soon became just as
cunning as in their native western
haunts. This is illustrated by an in
cident which occurred when the Ger
mans were Withdrawing across the
Marine. Indian scouts, with Ameri-
cans, were sent over the river to as
certain the German movements and
other details.
At one crossing three Indians i'm
provised a raft and chained it to the
north side of the Marine. They hid the
raft and then started on an exploring
expedition. The Germans discovered
the strange footprints on the river
bank and came upon the raft. They
awaited the Indians return. But, after
accommodating, the Indians approached
their hidden craft cautiously, and
seeming trouble, made hasty retreat
The Germans realized that the
strange red men were not of their
kind, and must therefore be an eneby
and began firing. The Indians ran
through the woods like deer, and final
ly struck for the water in an endeavor
to reach the south side.
These Indians, reared along the riv
ers, swim like Hawaiians and are able
to remain below the surface for long
time The Germans saw splashes in
the water and began firing. The In
dams dived and swan downstream
under water When they came to the
surface for air they brought up hand
full of clay which they grabbed from
the river bottom, and with this they
camouflaged their hands and faces
while on the surface for brief breath
ing spell.
Finally the Indians reached the
south bank far below the Germans
the current assisting them. Then they
crawled back and peered through the
bushes and watched the Germans
seeking the bronzed figures who ap
parently had been drowned. The Ger
mans, thoroughly angered, shot the
raft to pieces.

"FIlMING" THEIR FAMILIES.
Grand Idea TO Tighten the Burdens Of
Boys "Over There"

With all the thought, time and mon
ey that have been given to devising
and preparing amusements for our
troops in France, it has remained for
some public-spirited citizens of Salem,
Mass, to arrange the form of enter
tainment that will unquestiCnably give
the utmost satisfaction to their own
soldiers and that should be copied in
every town and city in the country.
They assembled on Salem Common
the families of the Salem boys who are
serving in France and had them march
before a motion-picture camera, keep
ing step to the music of band. The
film will be sent across and exhibited
in the Y. M c. A. huts that the Salem
boys frequent. VIII not those boys
call for that film night after night?
1t was a touching little scene-those
mothers and fathers, sisters and broth
ers, wives and children, looking eager
ly toward the camera as they marched,
six abreast, straight down to it, smil-
ing cheerfully, hoping that those they
loved would recognize them, striving
to put all their love and courage into
their eyes. There were some young
mothers with babies in their arms that
the soldier fathers had never seen;
they held the infants up close before
the camera, so anxious were they that
the photographer should get good
picture!
Can we not imagine the scene in the
crowded Y. M. c. A. hut when that film
is produced? The straining eagerness
of each soldier to see, the intensity
of his suspense while he waits for his
own to come, the murmured exclama
ton when at last the family appears
the appeals to the operator, Don't run
it off so FAST Can't you make 'em
move a little slower?" And then, when
it is all over, the demands to have il
again, and yet again-for on the first
round, although Tom had a good look
at mother and Jane, he had hardly
time to see father and Jim.
The best thing any community can
do for its soldiers is to send them mo-
ton pictures of their families. 1t may
bring tears to their eyes, but it will
put new happiness and fresh courage
into their hearts.-Youth's Companion

o. ROBIN PURCHASES
CHROME IN MONTANA
Property in Sweet Grass County, Mon
tana, Said to Be Most Valuable
in Country-Big Price.

Butte, Mont.-The mines OF the
Boulder River Chrome Company, 80
miles from Big Timber, in Sweet Grass
county on the Boulder river, said to
be the richest chrome property in the
United States, have been purchased by
Oscar Rohn, general manager OF the
East Butte Copper company, for a con-
sideration of 100000, it was announc-
ed Saturday by two of the former own
ers, S. C. Purdy and J. c. e. Barker
of Great Falls. A. w. Kingsbury Of
Great Falls was also interested in the
properties.
Mr.. Rohn, it was said, intends to
invest 100000 in addition to the pur-
chase price. A gravel road 35 miles
long from Big Timber to the mines is
to be built and a large concentra ting
mill will be erected.
1t is said that the Boulder river
properties are the only workable de
posits of chrome in the United States
outside of California. Hitherto nearly
all the chromium used in manufac
ture in this country has been import
ed from Rhodesia, New Caledonia ant
China. The metal enters into the man
ufacture of cannon and shell.
