Confession of Horace Mann
This DisIoyalist Was Sent to Idaho by LeSeuer
and Worked Under the Direction of MCkai@

You have all read the confession of
Horace Mann. He admitted, under
oath, that he had been sent to Idaho
by Arthur LeSeuer, secretary of the
Nom partisan league, to work among
the farmers for the league; that he
had been working under the direction
of Ray McKaig, the field secretary for
the league in Idaho. He confessed that
he was socialist, and a sympathizer
with the l. w. W.. that he had made
statements in defense of the acts of
Haywood; that he declared the draft
law unconstitutional and that he was
against the war; that he had told a
number of people that the Bolsheviki
government was the highest type of
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1918-10-17

democracy that the world had yet pro-
duced. He also admitted the author
ship of a Socialist book containing
rabid statements.
When Mann was arrested letters
and documents were found on him
confirming his confession. Among
them were letters from Ray McKaig
praising Mann's good work"-his
damnable Socialism, l. w. W.-ism,
pro -Germanism.
Before Mann confessed, affdavits of
reputable citizens were published in
Boise and all over tho state recting
the disloyal statements he had made
Mckaig was fully advised of these af.
fidavits but he did not stop Mann, but
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1918-10-17

sent him back to continue to peddIe
Pro-German propaganda, and when
he was arrested Mckaig took steps to
defend him.
But the evidence was over whelming
and Mann confessed everything
Many discriminating letters were
found on Mann and were taken over
by the secretary of the Gooding coun-
ty council of defense. Later the sec
retary's Office was burglarized and all
the Mann letters that were there were
stolen. The more important ones
had been Paced in a bank vault. Who
burglarized the secretary's office?
Maybe McKaig knows why this was
done? Tell us, McKaig.

BIG GUNS ARE STRENGTHENED
One Hundred and Seventeen Miles of
Steel Wire Is Wound Around a
Twelve-lnch Weapon.

No fewer than 11S miles Of steel
wire are wound on a Pinch gun that
weighs 1914 tons, says a writer in the
Mitigate Monthly. In appearance. this
wire, which Is of the same quality as
piano wire, resembles tape; it is one
quarter of an inch wide and one-tenth
of an inch thick. 1t is tested TO q
breaking strength of IL tons. The
wire unwinds from reel as the gun
barrel revolves, and tension of about
90 tons to the square inch insures me-
chanical accuracy in wrapping it round
the gun.
Various parts of the gun receive diff
ferent thicknesses of wire. AT the
breach of a 12-inch gun, where the
chief strain comes, there are 90 lay
ers, which give thickness of nine and
a half inches of WIRE but at the muz-
zle there are only IA layers. Over the
wire the gunmakers shrink on steel
rings at white heat. When they cool
they contract and grip with immense
force. The rif1ing of the barrel is an
automatic process-an example of
wonderful mechanical ingenuity. When
the gun is finished experts test the ac-
curacy of the rifling with plastic gutta-
percha.

STRONGHOLD OF THE BEAVER
Largest Colony in Existence Making q
Last Stand in Businesses of
Southern Rockies.

Far up in the Businesses of the
southern Rockies, hidden in one of the
most inaccessible hooks that remain
In this country today, what is proba-
bly, the largest existing colony of beav-
er, has established itself for a last
stand.
The beaver was once one of the most
abundant of our American animals, but
the ease with which he was trapped
and the value of his fur soon drove
him far on the road to extinction. Soon
only the most stringent of protective
legislation was able to save him, but
now he seems to be coming back"
and wherever he finds a favorable To-
cation he increases rapidly.
There is no better place in the world
to study the interesting habits of this
little animal than in that little hidden
mountain valley just south of the Col
orado line which the Mexicans have
christened "Lagunitas" and the Ameri-
cans call Beaver Lakes" The valley
nesties against the very backbone of
the continental divide, 10000 feet
above sea level, and from every side
1t is approachable only Y long and
toilsome forest travel, except in win
ter, when it is not approachable at all.
The hollow In the mountains crest is
dotted with irregular rows and minia-
lure ranges of hills, two and three
hundred feet high, that make up a
most bewildering topography.
In among these hills the beaver have
built them a city. The landscape Is
ideal for the building of their dams.
and by throwing barriers of stick and
mud from hillside to hillside they have
created dozen big lakes, some of
them half a mile long. Along the
shores of these lakes are built the
beavers lodges. There are probably |
thousand beaver in this community, |
reigning in undisputed supremacy over |
their mountain domain. They are shy |
brutes, but very early in the morning
and just at sunset you can often sur
prise them cutting the quaking aspen
on the bank with their chisel teeth or
plastering away industriously at one
of their elaborate dams.

THE DAYS OF KNICHTHOOD
RECALLED BY AERIAL DUEL

cheers for Ball The Germans yelled
just as vigorously for Immeman.
"The cheers from the trenches con-

volume; our changed into cries of
alarm.
"Ball, thousands of feet above us
and only speck in the sky, was do
ing the craziest things imaginable.
He was below Immelman, and was,
apparently, making no effort to get
above him, thus gaining the advan-
tage of position. Rather, he was
swinging around, this way and that,
attempting, it seemed, to postpone
the inevitable.

soldier at my side, for he knew I'm

fire once it was being driven straight
down.
"Then, in "A fraction of second, the
tables were turned. Before Immel-
mans plane could get into firing posi-
ton, Ball drove his machine into a
loop, getting above his adversary, and
cutting loose with his gun, and smash
ing Immelman by hail of bullets as
he swept by.
"Immeman's airplane burst into
flames and dropped. Ball, from above,
followed for few hundred feet and
then Strengthened out and raced for
home He settled down, rose again,
hurried back, and released a huge
wreath of flowers almost directly over
the spot where lmmelman's charred |
body was being lifted from a tangled
mass of metal"
Four days later Ball, too, was kill
ed. He had attacked single handed |
four Germans. He had shot one down |
and was pursuing the other three
when two machines dropped from be-
hind the clouds and closed in on him.
He was pocketed and was killed, but
not until he had shot down two more
