ent case, as was done with Austria
Bulgaria and Turkey, to deal with
the armistice as purely military is
sue between the military commands.
Should this procedure be followed
it is regarded here as probable that
several days may elapse while the
German general staff, now nominal
ly, at least, subordinate to the civil
government, can consider decision.
There can be no argument as to the
terms, no matter how harsh they
may appear to the Germans. The
only course left to Germany is to ac-
cept or reject them. Meanwhile, Mar
shall Foch is expected to continue the
pressure on the Teutonic armies
which now threatens their safety
along 2OO-mile front.
No announcement yet has been
made regarding when the terms of
the armistice will be made public.
Their publication probably will be
delayed until Germany has reached
a decision with regard to them.

terms prepared for Germany by the
supreme war council are in the hands
of German emmisaries on the western
front, but the time that must elapse
before there is a decision regarding
their acceptance probably will depend
largely upon the powers with which
the German delegation has been
clothed.
There is nothing here to indicate
what authority has been conferred
upon these German government rep
resentatives. The official announce
ment from Berlin via London today
said:
"a German delegation to conclude
an armistice and take up peace nego-
tiations has left for the western
'front.'" but the significance of the
language employed is unsettled.
Officials here assume the German
representatives, after securing the
terms from Marshal Foch, will trans
nit them by telegraph or convey
them personally to the German high
command in the field, for it is under

GENESEE RED CROSS
SENDS SOLDIERS FRUIT

The Red Cross of Genesee, following
the fine example set by Genesee people
in every public enterprise, sent over
literally Sloads" of fruit to the sick and
convalescent soldiers at Moscow. Ser
geant Hatfield, who is supply sergeant
for the hospitals, asks The StarMirror
to convey the thanks of himself and
every soldier in Moscow, to the Genesee
Red Cross ladies for this magnificent
offering. He said: "We have five big
boxes of canned fruit here now and learn
that two more automobile loads are on
the way. 1t was brought direct to the
hospitals and we have no words strong
enough to express our appreciation.
Genesee has an enviable reputation for
all public spirited work, having led in
Red Cross, Liberty loan and other war
fund drives and the people there are
liberal, public spirited and very enter
prising

MOSCOW CELEBRATES
SIGNING ARM|ST|CE
PREMATURE CELEBRATION OF
VICTORY GREATLY ENJOYED
BY DELIGHTED PEOPLE

A premature announcement that the
Germans had signed the armistice and
the war was over, electrified the people
of the United States. The report was
cabled from France, but how it orig
mated is not known But it spread like
the proverbial wild fire" and every one
went wild.
The Star Mirror received call from
Mr.. Langdon, manager of the telephone
company, stating that Germany had
signed The editor went to the Western
Union office to confirm it before making
it known There he was told that the
dispatch had come from Spokane and
he asked for confirmation. In d lew
minutes the Spokane operator announced
that it was authentic, that Spokane was
celebrating, stores were closed, whistles
blowing and the people were celebrating
wildly. Then the story was given out IN
Moscow.
A bulletin was posted and in few
minutes the bulletin was the chief at
traction in town. Then things began to
happen Merchants brought out their
flags and flung them to the breeze, stores
were closed, whistles blown and the
an impromptu parade 1t was one of
ever seen in Moscow. 1t was four blocks
long as it marched south down Main
street and five blocks long as it re-
turned with the soldiers and a brass
band leading. Those who were not IN
the parade joined in the cheering and
shouting from the sidewalks.
After the parade was over and the
people had resumed their work, the
Associated Press dispatch announcing
that the story was not authentic and
that the peace treaty or armistice had
not been signed, reached Moscow. But
it came too late to deprive Moscow
people of the first real cause for JOY
GUS celebration they had had in four
years.
Moscow and Spokane are not the only
places that were fooled. Throughout
the length and breadth of the land the
news went and impromptu celebrations
were organized Pullman simply went

BELIEVED THAT GOODING
is ELECTED SENATOR

The only office in this state which
has been in doubt has been the short
term senatorship for which Frank R.
Gooding, former governor of Idaho, re-
publican, and John F Nugent incum-
bent, democrat and indorsed by the nom
partizan league were the contestants
The race has been close. Both sides
have claimed it. At midnight last night
the returns then in at Boise gave it to
Nugent by 44o. AS The Star Mirror
goes to press word comes from Boise
that Gooding is elected by cicse to 1000
majority. Latah county did the trick.
This county, with two precincts out
(Texas Ridge and Helmer), gives Good
ing oo7 majority over Nugent It is
known, unofficia1ly, that Helmer gave
Gooding a majority of l and it is un-
officially reported that Texas Ridge
gives him about IS majority. Gooding
headquarters claim this afternoon that
the former governor is elected by at
least 1000 majority.

REQ CROSS HEAD
APPEALS FOR FUNDS
AFTER FIVE WEEKS SPENT IN
SPECTING WORK TELLS AM
ERICANS OF ITS NEEDS

BOISE.-(Special to The Star Mir
ror. )-Henry P. Davidson, chairman
of the American Red Cross, after a
five weeks inspection trip of the Red
Cross in England, France and Italy,
sent the following telegram, calling
upon the Red Cross throughout the
United States, to support the United
War Work campaign. Mr.. Davidson
fare organizations. He says: "Hav-
ing spent nearly five years among
our men back of the lines in England,
France and Italy, I have had oppor-
| tunity to observe the work of the
seven relief organizations. Certainly
every chapter of the American Red
Cross within the United States and
indeed in all other parts of the world,
and all citizens of the United States,
would contribute to the work of these
organizations if they could appreciate
it's Importance. Our nearly two mil
lion men are far from home in strange
lands and need, as men never needed
before, just the things these organi-
cations supply. l am therefore con-
fident that the entire Red Cross, con-
scious of its obligations, will cooper
ate with enthusiasm and zeal in the
coming campaign"
The tremendous Importance of the
work of these seven welfare organiza-
tions, and the vast sum to be raised
to carry on that work, requires the
cooperation of all humane bodies. The
response of the Red Cross to Mr..
Davidson's appeal will be of immense
value, enlisting as it will, the working
force of that gigantic organization
behind the United War Work drive.

INFLUENZA CASES
GROWING FEWER
ONLY THREE NEW CASES RE-
PORTED IN MOSCOW TODAY
AND THREE RELEASED

The report of the influenza epidemic
in Moscow today is very encouraging.
Only three new cases were reported in
the S. A. T. c. and three have been re-
leased as cured There were no deaths
and the old cases are getting better
DR.. W. A. Adair, city health officer,
says no new cases have been reported to
him in the town, proper, outside of the
S. A. T. c. men, and that conditions in
Moscow are satisfactory. 1t is believed
that the epidemic is under control and
that from now on the number of cases
will grow less daily. If people continue
to take care of themselves and obey the
regulations as they have the health Off
GERS believe that it will not be long be-
fore schools can be opened and every
thing move on as before the epidemic
struck Moscow.

brations the artesian city has had in
years. Bands were playing, flags fly
ing and the people were wildly joyful.
The change from the sadness of war
and of influenza epidemics was relished
by all. The premature celebration can
do no harm. We will all feel better for
it. The celebration was premature, but,
like the punishment of the Germans, we
chad it coming to us" and we took it.
