THE FALL OF LENS.

One of the hardest blows Germany
has suffered in the war was the loss to
the British of the city of Lens, with its
great coal mines and its manufacturing
industries. Germany took Lens in 1914
and has held it ever since, although bito
ter battles have been waged to regain it.
The town is of vast Importance. 1t has
meant much to the Germans.
Sweden, Norway and other countries
that had no coal we're compelled by Ger
many to give that country iron and other
things absolutely necessary to Germany's
success in carrying on the war, in ex-
change for coal taken from the mines
at Lens. This source of barter has
been effectually cut off.
Lens is among the most important
held by the Germans and its loss
will mean much in an economic way as
we'll as in ~disheartening the already dis
couraged German people. Its capture
was a great victory for the Allies.

GOODyNEWS FOR FARMERS.

There is cause for rejoicing among
farmers in the news from Washington
that President Wilson has fixed the
price of the 1919 wheat crop at 81 per
bushel for this section. 1t means much
to the northwest and ought to result in
a greatly increased acreage.
1t seems hardly possible that there
will be three short crops in succession
and the claw of averages" would sug-
gest that next years crop in the north
west will be a record breaker. If it is
and the acreage is as large as it should
be, with the price at 81 per bushel or
more, the farmers of the northwestern
wheat belt, who have barely got by in
the past two years with the short crop,
ought to make a good profit next year.
Here's hoping that the acreage and
yield may both be the biggest ever known
in the Inland Empire in 1919 and that
81 per bushel will be paid to the farmers
who produce the wheat.

The air has been brilliantly clear, set
ting off the grandeur of mountains and
canyons and the charms of the rolling
hills, with their fields of grain and their
green pasture lands. The county's eli
mate is like the habits of the little girl
in Longfellow's poem: And when she
was good, she was very, very good; and
when she was bad, she was horrld.
"In this beautiful late summer period,
the harvest is going forward and the
grain is being gathered into the ware
houses. Everybody is working and
therefore contented. Contrasting the
peaceful scenes here with the desolation
Of the war-stricken lands of the old
world, the people Of the county should
De deeply thankful and should never for
yet that as they have given nothing, sui
nothing yet, their obligation IS
great to answer every call of country
instantly and cheerfully."

is AT IT'S BEST.

The following editorial from the
Enterprise (Oregon) Record Chieftain,
might well apply to Latah county, Idaho,
as well as to Wallowa county, Oregon.
The appeal to the citizens contained in
this editorial is good. The editorial fol-
lows
"Wallowa county has been at its very
best since the rains ceased last week,
and it is today one of the beauty spots
of old Mother Earth. Never have there
been more perfect days, more invigor-
ating nights. The temperature has been
precisely right, has been perfect for COM
fort of man and beast, and for maturing
the crops.

1T IS VASTLY EFFICIENT NOW.

The whole world can remember how
Kaiser Bill advertised the start of the
great German drive on March 81, and
invited the newspaper men from all
neutral countries to come and see the
Germans start for Paris and London.
The world remembers how Kaiser Bill
took personal charge" of the German
armies and the crown prince took per-
sonal charge of large army corps and
the drive was advertised as literally as
any circus was ever advertised and the
world looked on with amazement.
But have you noticed the absence of
advertising of the return trip?" No
newspaper correspondents we're invited
TO see the German army come back and
the press is not Boosting of the rapid
return of the defeated army. Kaiser
Bill is not in personal charge" and he
IS not announcing this is my retreat"
as he announced, in March this is my
battle" What a vast difference there
is today. An army numbering several
million men, armed and equipped as no
army was ever armed and equipped, Of
ficered by men totally indifferent to the
number of lives sacrificed, swelled with
o~verconfidence and egotism, started out
with a flare of trumpetsl and with the
whole world for an audience, to conquer
the world.
Today that same army, or the rem
nants of it, is fighting desperately to
keep from being annihilated, while more
than .128,0O of those boastful soldiers
are prisoners, the territory gained by
the first great impetus has been lost and
the kaiser is nursing his sick wife.
Hindenburg, the "all-powerful" next to
"the all highest" is reported dead, dying,
sick, incapacitated, and an expert re-
treat officer is in charge.
The whole world is again the audience,
but it looks on with pleasure instead of
dread, and sees the crumbling of the
most autocratic, heartless and depraved
monarchy the world has ever known.
1t does not require a sharp eye to see
the vast difference between March and
The danger to the world is
past 1t will require a month to annihi-
Germany, but no one doubts she
will be annihilated.

Spain has sliced German ships and
Peru has turned over to the United
States the German ships interned in her
harbors. Germany has succeeded in
turning the last nestral nations that
dared to turn against her. The Skandi-
navian countries-Switzerland and Hol-
land-have not turned against Germany
because they did not dare to, but they
hate her cordially. Germany can today
be said to be the only country in the
world without a single friendly nation.
Even her allies fear and hate her.
Kaiser Bill has succeeded the sultan OF
Turkey as the most hated man in the
world.

WILL Be DRY
Committee Plan VIII End Whiskey
and Wine Sale After June 3o'
1919, and Beer Will Go
Sooner.

Washington, June 27-The Senate
Agriculture Committee today agreed
upon an amendment to the $ll,oOo'ooo
Emergency Agricultural Approprla-
ton bill providing for national prohl-
bitiOn.
Under the amendment the manu-
facture and sale of whiskey and vine
would be prohibited after June 80
1919. and the manufacture and sale OF
beer three months after the final APP
proval of the bill by the President.
The amendment was framed D.
Senator Norris, of Nebraska, as SUD-
stitute for the pending one by Sena-
tor Jones, of Washington. The Jones
amendment would have brought about
absolute prohibition Immediately up
on enactment of the legislation. the
Norris compromise was adopted by
the committee by vote of 3 to D.
Those opposed to the Norris amend
ment attempted to have it changed so
as to permit the sale of beer SIX
months after its passage and later
proposed four months. Both efforts,
however, resulted in defeat.
Chairman Gore said the bill with
the new amendment would be report
ed to the Senate tomorrow, and that
an effort would be made to bring 1t
I'D for consideration at once.
