M'LAREN WORKS IN
EASTERN FIRE ZONE

The following story from Denver
paper has reference to former resi-
dent of Glenwood and Aspen, for sever
al years associated with Harry French
of this city in the office of the Holy
Cross forest:
John McLaren of Denver, who is in
charge of fire protection in the nation
al forest preserves, is assisting in the
rescue work in the forest fires near
Duluth, MINI. Mr.. McLaren has been
assisting in the recovery Of bodies from
Lake Pike and is also conducting sur
vey to determine the situation regard
ing livestock and feed 30 that necessary
feed can be secured as soon as auto
mobiles can be put in operation. Ths

pare our methods with those of the
French. We have got hundreds of
great hog freight engines here, like
those that pull up Minturn hill, with
real U. s. khaki clad crews on them,
pulling a string of "made in U. 81
honest-to-God flats, refrigerators, tanks
and box-cars, on American made and
laid steel. II SIRE makes a fellow
proud he is an American when he COM
pares all this with the sights he sees in
the French railroad yard just opposite
ours
Ridiculously small, two-driver, brass
boilered engines. no "cowcatchers, no
bell, little shrill, sqpeeky whistles,
great long stacks, no air brakes, and
tender that carries about one ton,
tugging away at Is or 20 dinky little
box-cars that are marked "12 horses
or 40 men" and that have only four
wheels and are coupled together with a
sort of screw affair that is far more
dangerous and slower than our old link
and pin coupler.
The French switchmen give their sig
mails to the engine crew with a little
wooden whistle, instead of the arm
signals Of Cur men. 1t takes them
forever to get string of cars CLASH

saw a flying switch till our boys rp-

One thing they HAVE got over here
is dandy roadbeds and practically no
heavy grades. And ,r course on tn,
faster passenger trains they have
pretty good sized engines and nice
coaches which are divided into about
10 compartments with seats for 6 in
each compartment, with the aisle run

make pretty fast time and drag about

States and the allies in the field.
"He feels confident that he can
safely assume that this will also be the
judgment and decision of the allied
governments.
"The president feels that it is also
his duty to add that neither the govern
ment of the United States, nor, he is
quite sure, the governments with which
the government of the United States
is associated as belligerent will con-
sent to consider an armistice so long
as the armed forces of Germany con-
tinue the illegal and inhumane prac-
tices which they still persist in.
"At the very time that the German
government approaches the government
of the United States with proposals of
sinking passenger ships at sea, and not
the ships alone, but the very boats il
which their passengers and crews seek
to make their way to safety; and in
their present enforced withdrawal from
Flanders and France the German armies
are pursuing a course of wanton de-
struction which has always been re-
garded as in direct violation of the
rules and practices of civilized war
fare. Cities and villages, if not de-
stroyed, are being stripped of all they
contain not only, but often of their
very inhabitants. The nations associ-
ated against Germany cannot be ex,
pected to agree to a cessation of arms
while acts of inhumanity, spoilation
and desolation are being continued
which they justly look upon with hor
ror and with burning hearts.

said, and further grave losses are feared.
The fires which have cansed such
great loss of life and property in Min
nesota during the past two or three
days have been outside Of the national
forest preserves, but Mr.. McLaren hap
pened to be on the field and offered his
services, which were accepted. 1t is
also feared that the dense smoke which
hovers over the scene will add to the
seriousness of the influenza situation
in that vicinity.
On Saturday small fires were report
ed from the government forest preserves
at Cass lake, Mimi, but there had been
no loss of life there, although messages
received by the forestry department
Saturday evening stated that settlers in
the vicinity of the forest fires were
asking for help in fighting the fires.

there may be no possibility of misun-
dersta nding, that the president should
very solemnly call the attention of the
government OF Germany to the Ian
guage and plain intent of one of the
terms of peace which the German gov
ernment has now accepted. 1t is con-
tanned in the address Of the president
delivered at Mount Vernon on the
Fourth of July last.
''lt is as follows: The destruction
of every arbitrary power anywhere
that can separately, secretly and of its
single choice disturb the peace of the
world; or, if it cannot be presently
destroyed, at least its reduction to vir-
tual impotency.'
''The power which has hitherto con-
trolled the German nation is of the sol t
here described. 1t is within the choice
Of the German nation to alter it. The
president 8 words just quoted naturally
constitute condition precedent to

of the German people themselves. The
president feels bound to say that the
whole process of peace will, in his
Judgment, depend upon the definiteness
and the satisfactory character of the
guarantees which can be given in this
fundamental matter. 1t is indispensi-
BILE that the governments associated
against Germany should know beyond
peradventure with whom they are
dealing.

ernment of Austro-Hungary.

SPANISH INFLUENZA

While the influenza is raging all
over the state Glenwood has not es-
capped, and several cases have been re.
ported since our last issue.
So serious loes the matter threaten
to become that at special meeting Of
the health committee of the city coun.
ell Thursday evening it was decided to
provide an emergency hospital for such
cases as cannot be cared for in their
own homes. The physicians present
and Chairman Overlook of the local
Red Cross chapter believed such action
necessary.
Accordingly the lola rooming house
has been rented by the city and this
will be utilized as hospital for influ-
enza cases only. 1t is being put in
order by the Red Cross and Miss Mar.
garet Hetzel of the Glenwood sanitar,-
um will be placed in charge as super
intendent.
Several volunteer nurses have come
to the rescue and it is now believed
that all cases that may develop can b.
handled properly. The Red Gross
workers yesterday made number Of
gauze masks to be worn by those
callel upon to nurse influenza patients,
and these masks may be procured at
Bryant's store at the bare cost Of
making. e All cases in private homes
will be quarantined and physicians and
others are urged to report all cases 70
the county health officer so that the
greatest possible care may be exercised
in keeping the plague under proper
control.

SUBS ARE ORDERED into PORT

London, Oct. 1.-THE Germans are
believed tonight to have been forced TO
pvacuate both ZeebrnggA and Ostend.
Ostend has been captured by the Bel
gians and the British and Zeebrugge

Oct. 1.-THE Germans, on evacuating
Ostend, left behind them their rear
guards, all of whom were killed or cap

forces in the town and Belgian aviators
alighted in the Place de e'Armes.
Zeebrugge appears to have been aban-
doned. Vast quantities of war materi-
ais, the accumulation of four years, has
been taken by the allied troops. The
Germans are hurrying eastward through
the passage between Bruges and the
Dutch border. over the only good road
remaining. This road is reported to be
a tumble of transports and fleeing men.
The passage between Bruges and Hol
land undoubtedly will come in for Sc

tillery as more guns are rushed up.

In Belgian Flanders their steps are
