noon for F. Gingrich, a laborer, a
resident Of Olympia for several years
and former printer, who was killed
Friday afternoon while working on

after he had been removed from the
debris. Surviving are the widow and
eight children.

TO TAKE CENSUS
IN TURKEY NOW

AMSTERDAM, Jan. 28.-For the first
time in the history of Turkey a com
plete census of the whole empire is
to be taken. A German statistician
has been appointed to superintend the
preliminary formalities. The Turkish
newspaper Sabah says: eve are the
only nation in Europe not excluding
even the Balkan states which possesses
no official statistics Of our popula-
ton.
The estimated population of Tur-
key before the war was roughly 21,-
Geo, 900, of which 100000 were Turks,
100000 Arabs 100000 Armenians,
1900, 444 Greeks, 100000 Kurds and
the remainder Druses, Jews and the
smaller tribes. The Turkish neWspa-
pers have recently shown some anx>
iety as to the large decrease in popu-
Iation lately caused by the war and
the prevalence of disease, and have
Urged the government to take steps
to decrease mortality and increase the
birth rate.

OFFICER WHO STRUCK
ENLISTED Man FIRED

SPARTANBURG. S. c., Jan. U.s.
Lieut.. Harold L. Whitney, Battery F,
1O4th Field Artillery has been dismiss
ed from the army for having struck an
enlisted man ~of his battery.
Lieut.. Whitney was tried by court
martial here several weeks ago. I'm
der army regulations a verdict of a
courtmartial involving dismissal of
an officer must be approved by the
president before it is made effective,
and word was received today that
tho verdict has been approved by the
president.
The board of officers before whom
Lieutenant Whitney was tried took the
view that with this country at war
and all bodied men being required
10 bear arms, the striking Of an enlist
ed man by an officer, involving the
mans humiliation and degradation
was an offense that could not be con-
doned. The verdict was approved by
Major General Organ and has now
been approved by PRECEDENT Wilson.

EFFECT OF GOVERNMENT
OPERATION ON RATES

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 28-What eff
feet will government control of rail-
roads have on freight rates? Just
now this question is uppermost in the
minds Of shippers and receivers Of
freight throughout the country. 1t is
generally understood that the govern
ment will fix such rates as will enable
it to pay the owners of tile roads q
fair return upon their investment,
without expending government funds
to cover a deficit On this basis, it is
to note that the railroads
Of the United States in the years end
ing June 30, 1917, earned ST per cent
upon the capital invested in railway
This would not be consid
cred at all lucrative in comparison
with the much higher earnings of the
business or industry, and
would seem to foreshadoW general rate
increases under government control.

HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 28,-That
Georgia cotton mills using hydro-elec-

umst close next Monday, and on all
Succeeding Mondays up to and includ-
ing Monday, March %, was the in
formation received in Atlanta yester-
day from Dr. L. G. Hardman, federal
fuel administrator for Georgia.
Just why this order was promulgat-
ell by DR.. Hardman cannot be figured
out here, since it has been previously
announced from Washington that the
fuel closing order did not affect the
use of hydro-electric power, which is
not produced by the consumption of

Just why the order should affect cot
ton mills using hydro-elecrtic power,
while not affecting other plants using
the same sort of power, is also beyond
the local fuel administrator and his
associates.
1t has been suggested that perhaps

PROHI AMENDMENT
RATIFICATION Is
OBJECT OF PLANS

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 28.-Plans for
the Southern campaign for ratifica-
ton of the prohibition amendment to
the federal constitution were outlined
by state superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League at a general meeting
held in Birmingham from which James
A. Christian of this city, superintend-
ent Of the Georgia Saloon League
has just returned.
That the Georgia legislature will
ratify the amendment at it's next ses-
sion is the consensus of opinion here.
Georgia's prohibition laws are among
the most thoroughgoing in the coun-
try. They have given the state the
nearest approach to genuine prohibit
ton it has ever enjoyed, and the re-
suits in reduced crime and increased
prosperity have been striking as to
cause comment throughout the coun-
try. Hence it is taken for granted
that Georgias lawmakers will keep
the record straight by ratifying the
prohibition amendment to the federal
constitution when It comes before
them at their regular session this
summer.
It will not be the policy, however
Of the Anti-Saloon League of this OF
any other state to sit idly by and wait
for victory without an effort 1t is
generally admitted that the whisky
interests of the country, now fighting
in their last trench, will spend unlim,
tied money in an attempt to defeat
the federal amendment, which forever
prohibits the manufacture, sale and
importation Of whiskey in the United
States.

SALADIN.

Christian Science Monitor: Amongst
the many conquerOrs of Jerusalem, few
have made a greater impression on
western thought that Saladin, or Sala'h
uddin, Yusaf ibn Ayub, sultan of Egypt
and Syria, whose name was so greatly
nosed abroad throughout all Christen-
dom during the latter half of the
Twelfth century. The age in which
Saladin lived was, of course, a roman
tic age, the heyday of chivalry, the age.
par excellence of the crusade, the tour
ney, and the troubadour. 1t was, how
ever, a coarse and brutal age, and so,
when Saladin had gained the attention
of the world by his knightly generos-
ty and hospitality to a Richard Occur
de.Lion. he aroused it's wonder by his
extreme gentleness, his love of chill
dren, his fiawless honesty, his invariable
kindliness his chivalry to women and
the weak"
And yet, as the Christians of Jerusa.
lem knew only too well, he was a Mu-
Mammalian Of Muhammadans, fiercely
hostile to unbelievers, and determined
to purge the very air they breathed" ="
| He was, in every sense, however, a
good sbeman," and so, whilst the "Sa.
| ladin Tithe" which Richard Coeur.de-
Lion imposed on his subjects for the
recovery Of the Holy City caused many
in those days to remember him bitterly,
time quickly swept all that away and
left Saladin with a memory strangely
charged with respect
His career was full of romance, from
the day when he came with his father,
a general Of army of the atabeg of Mo.
sui, to Damascus in 1146, to that Sep.
tember day in 1892, when he signed the
treaty with Richard which signalized
the failure of the third crusade 1t is
of course, about his dealings with the
| crusaders that most interest centers
today. The Latin kingdom, founded by
Godfrey of Bouillon and his knights
in 1899, had had its seat at Jerusalem
for nearly a hundred years before the
third crusade, and Saladn, during the
years Immediately preceding that event
had been making conquests to the
north, south, and east of Judea, until
at last, about the year 1886, the last
independent vassal was subdued and
the Latin kingdom was inclosed on
every side by a hostile empire. Three
years later came Saladn's chance tC
complete his conQuestS. He had made
a four years truce with the Latin
kingdom, and, in 1857 this truce was
broken by the brilliant brigand, Renaut
de Chatillon, and Immediately Saladir
| rose in his wrath He routed a small
body Of Templars and Hospitalers al
Tiberias in May, and, on the 4th ot
the following July, inflicted a crushing
defeat on the united Christian army al

At this holiday time, which makes

ency on the part of pupils to drop out

in the upper grades of the grammar
schools, in the high schools and in the

friend.
There is no lack of temptation, in
the way of clamorous jobs at good
wages, and in the case of the older
boys, military or naval service. But
with few exceptions, the temptation had
far better be mastered than yielded to.
This is, of all times, the time to get
the best education possible Whether
for purposes of war, or of the peace
that will follow the war, every boy
and girl will need all the education
obtainabe.
The federal commissioner of educa-
tion and the secretary of war have
taken special pains to urge high school
and college students to stick to their
books.
"If YOU are needed later for war
service" they say, your country will
find you vastly more useful with a
good education than without it, Your
usefulness as "A constructive citizen,
following the war, will be increased
