larSed the wonderful Mukuntu-
weap National monument, In
Utah, and changed its name. 1t
is now known as the Zion National
monument, which is UNNECESSARILY bet
ter from every point Of view.
The old name, besides being hard TO
pronounce and remember, was obscure
I'm origin and was never used except
officially. The new name is that In
popular use. Besides, It crystallIzes
the romantic history Of its amazingly
beautiful valley; the surrounding cOun-
try was settled by MormOns many
years ago, and this difficult canyon was
chosen as refuge In the event Of
Indian attack, and called Little" Zion
to differentiate II from big" Zion,
which was Salt Lake City. Since then
II has universally been called Zion
canyon.
The enlargement Of the Zion Nation
al monument follows naturally upon
its recent thorough exploration and the
discovery Of outlying areas Of alto
gether extraordinary scientific interest
and scenic grandeur. That its fantas-
tic cliffs, It's sensational cOloring, and
It's romantic conformation will bring II
national popularity as resort is mani
fest destiny. 1t has been called, for
good reasons, "the little Grand Canyon"
and "the desert Yosemite" but 1t is no
miniature Of either; It's individuality
Is marked.
Remarkable Variety Of Color.
The original monument was created
by proclamation In 1909, but, being
well outside the highways Of ordinary
travel, 1t was not thoroughly explored
until within the last two years. Ofn.
clal investigation and action promptly
followed.

OF his leg until he had stopped the
flow of blood.
A moment later finding that his
shotaway foot had fallen into the
steering mechanism of the plane, he
reached over, picked it up, and tossing
it over his shoulder to his machineguI
operator back of him said:
Here keep this for me; it's in the
way here"
For twenty-five minutes he kept
flying at his post of observation car
rying out the one unbreakahle order
for observation pilots, and then wnen
his half hour of service was 10, few
back to his artillery commander and
alighted fainting.

was released with the injunction to
leave the county before noon.
At the same hour another band
of masked men entered the home
of Henry Huffman, ten miles south
of Altus, and gave him the same
kind of treatment Huffman was
taken to the county line and headed
into Texas.
1t is said the knights of Liberty
had received information that West
brook and Huffman openly had ours
ed the government, upheld Germany
and her ambitions and refused to
subscribe to either Liberty loans.
1t is also said to have been re-
ported that the men refused to aid
the Red Cross and ridiculed the
War Savings stamps.
Reports from southwest Okla
homa are that the Knights of Lib
erly are organized to strength OF
more than 500 members and that
more tarring and feathering activi-
ties are expected"
Such proceedings are frowned upon
by the federal government because
the government knows that men dealt
with in this manner are only made
more dangerous. If all pro-Germans
in Oklahoma are driven out Of the
state what will be the effect upon
the states and upon the communities
to which they are forced to go?
The administration can do much
to stop this sort of thing. Let fed
eral officehs understand that they are
to enforce the laws vigorously and
impartially. Let few traitors be
lined up against a brick wall and
given the dose they would get in
Germany if they lived there and We're
not loyal to the German government.
These people love the German ways
so much that they are willing to do
what they can for Germany even at
the expense of the interests of their
own country. In view of this fact the
United States government ought to
insist that they be served in the
German fashion.
Every state and every community
ought to see that it's own skunks are
taken care of. It is really an imposi-
ton upon neighbors to throw tho
critters over adjoining fences.

BAGS BIGGEST WOLF SHOT
IN VICINITY OF MCGREGOR.
Bee Raiser Kills his Sixty First Wolf
After Long Chase.

McGregor, Iowa, March 23.-Elmer
Mcdowell, bee raiser in this dis
trict, has killed his sixty-frst wolf.
A brute that measured six feet four
inches in length was the last victim.
1t was his largest haul and men say
it is the biggest ever bagged in this
district.
McDowell's record extends through
eight years. He gets bounty of $50
for killing the animal and his holding
the skin for big money.
The wolf was shot down after it
had been terrorizing the district for
several nights.
1t took Mcdowell four hours and
half to trail down the animal and
shoot it. Five shots brought it down
after the hounds had cornered it.

According to a dispatch sent Out
| from Altus, Oklahoma, a few days
ago, two farmers of German descent
alleged to have made pro-German re.
marks, We're dragged from their beds
by bands of knights of Liberty" for
ced to kiss the American fag
flogged with blacksnake whips, tar
red and feathered and driven from
their homes with orders not TO re-
turn.
Such conduct as this cannot be
safely tolerated That is not the way
to deal with disloyality. Where vii:
such men go and what will they do
in the future? They are certainly
at home than when elsewhere.
Loyal people who may be justly in
pro-Germans ought TO restrain them
selves and let the law take its course.
True, law enforced against this
species of criminal is mighty slow
and uncertain, but it is best to have
the machinery operating at moderate
speed than to have the old mill Of
justice grind out a grist from mater
ials that have not been properly sort
ed. Mobs. acting in the heat OF
passion, are very apt to visit punish
ment upon innocent men. 1t is always
unsafe to act harshly upon rumor
or hearsay evidence. Let the men ac-
cused of being pro-German have an
opportunity to defend themselves and
clear their names of stigma and dis
grace. Mobs do not offer such ap-
portunities.
The Altus dispatch continued as
follows:
Every road instersection in Jack
son county is posted with notices to
pro-Germans and slackers to leave
the county or suffer treatment
similar to that dealt to the farmers.
Before dawn ten automobiles load
ed with armed and masked men
drove to the farm of o. F. Westbrook
seventeen miles northeast of here,
dragged him from his house and es-
corted him to a thickly wooded spot.
He was, according to the reports
available tonight, forced to kiss the
flag many times and swear to the
oath of Eternal allegiance Of the
Knights of Liberty"
The farmer then was whipped and
a coat of tar applied, with handfuls
of feathers tossed on him. West5rook
