FRENCH COMMENT ON
 PRESIDENTS REPLY
FEELING PREVAILS THAT CONDl TONS ARE JUST WHAT THE ALLIES HAVE BEEN
 WANTING.

Paris. Oct. 24-The official com ment to the Associated Press on President Wilson's reply to Germany can be summarized as follows.
 Presient Wilson's latest answer resolves che whole thing into a mili- tary question which can be decided by Foch 1Iaig and Pershing
 "The situation, however, is virtual ly unchanged, though the exchange Of notes has given an insight into affairs in Germany and has perhaps hastened her internal reforms The answer will have to be military answer from her military authorities.
 The French peope feel that the question of the internal government of Germany Is not so important as an insurance against recurrance O. Germany's militaristic p0lices which preciptated the war.
 "We do not know how sincere Ger many is about her internal reforms. We have reason to doubt the sheer fly of her aims in this direction. The great thing for us is to make sure that things shall not again be in the same position as lefore the war.
 An armistice is almost impossible as the conditions would be so un- imaginably drastic An armistice would be full of danger if not guard cd by all sorts of condtons'
 The feeling prevails in general among French officials that the lat est note from the president of the United States is just what the allies have lccn wanting to force upon the enemy

END OF NOTE WRITING.

That last reply ihHde by Mir. Wilson to the German government out to set tic the matter of correspondence look ing 0 peace other than by the force of arms. lsea
 Mir Wilson has at ylast settled him Osef down to short serious phrases Which leave nothing to be misnter- pieted.
 The German government must, il sha is So receive any consideration, chanse from an autocracy to q representative does mot change to a representative government of the people, "uncondit ional surrender" Is demanded, and that she will be changed by force
 Ii the conditions within Germany aye such as many of Us believe they are and as all hope for, there may be an acceptance Of even the terms of the last note If the German people arc still loyal to then kaiser, and still believe that their salvation lies with him, there vii be no answer to the last Wilson note except the answ ei that will come through the shortening of the battle lines on the western front and the stubborn resistance tnar Germans admittedly eau make Wher they have crossed the Rhine
 Whatever the future has in store toI the situation will be met in unflinch. ing manner. Note writing may haT' detracted some interest from the wa reports of late. but the forces of tn allies have been making more wonder ful gains lately than ever before. an, those gains will be maintained Ger many is being crushed steadily b. force of arms. and whether that io takes two weeks, two months, or tw years, it will be carried to 8 com pletion that is satisfying. unless th last note iMr. Wilson has addressed t the German nation is answered in al acceptance that has no cquivocuons

BRITISH PLEASED WITH
 REPLY OF PRESIDENT
POPULAR COMMENT IS THAT TT CONTAINS THE STRONGEST LANGUAGE EVER CONTAIN
 ED IN NOTE.

London, Oct. 2l-The popula, ! comment on the presidents note hero 1 is that it contains the strongest | language eyer addressed by the head of one great nation to another in modern times The note is welcom cd first because it brings matters 10 a new state; further proceedings, l it there are to be further proceed ings, will be m the hands of all the governments interested. Hitherto, SO far as the public knows. the nations associated with the United States and which have more at stake perhaps than has the United States, have been on-lookers to the core pondence.
 The note is welcomed, secondly, be- cause lt promises 10 bring the sea % son of discussion 10 an end and al- together, one way or the other No one sees how the German chancellor, Prince MaXimilian, can fail either to accept President Wilson's platform, or reject it.
 Acceptance will be taken to mean that the Germans regard their posi- tiun as hopeless and that disaster $ imminent
 The general opinion is that Ger many's military position Is not so bad lut that her leaders will fight on. if )nly with the hope of creatns division among the allies, which has been Germany'5 reliance of late.
 Watch Gcrmany's allies if she de- cides to go on with the war" is the suggestion among diplomats here
 Austria shows no intention of re- maining the tail to the German kite. The Austrian premier said yesterday that the separate correspondence be- gun with President Wilson would continue.
 Germany's course, therefore need have no effect upon Austria's, and 1t will be no surprise to Britian if Aus tria and Turkey both blow their own peace furows if Germany persists in the war
 One report current today was that the associated nations would mmeG- lately form a joint diplomatic staff and that Colonel House would repre- sent the United States. A maiority of the newspapers have urged the government to announce ifs peace terms in common with the other al lied powers, and considers such an announcement overdue.

BRUGES CITIZENS
 RELATE EXPERIENCES
GERMAN OFFICERS HAD GAY PAR TIES IN BRUGES AND OTHER
 PARTS OF BELGIUM.

With the British Army in Belgium, l Oct 2l An inspection of numerou German posters in Belgium discloses
 that wherever the death penalty for
 Offenses by civilians was executed,
 no signature was attached. It is
 therefore concluded that no German
 commander was willing to take an individual responsibility for such orders, possibly fearing consequence $ in the future
 This was especially the case Tn BrNses In addition to the visible evidence, it was testified to by M Echeyin, one of the aldermen who at tended the execution of Captain Fryatt, the master of the British seamer ijrus- sels, as the representatives of the city, The aldermen said Captain I1ryatt brayely looked straight at his lring squad An hour after his execution an order that he be not shot arrived from Germany The alderman said that be- tween I5,O0O and 2o,000 marks monthly were collected from citizens of Bruses as fines.
 The people of the city were requireo to remove all signs in the French language and 10 change the names oi streets to German or Flemish IT IS alleged that Admiral Schroeder whip ped children whose dogs parked at him Two girls were imprisoned for ei ht months and given only mildcWod bread and coarse beans. They were accused of writing a letter to their brother While in prison they were told that their brother had been ar rested anu would be shot But later they learned that he had been reIeased after two months.
 Before the Germans evacuated Bruges they issued circulars callins on all men between the ages of l6 anG 45 years to appear at the office of the commandant Dnly 440 reported The German criers went about ,ue streets saying that those who failed to report would be severely dealth with Six hundred additional men answered the call and all were carted away from the city in trucks like cattle.

M. G. THOMAS DIED IN SEATTLE.

Mr.. Thomas died last Saturday, ac-
cording to information received here.
He had not been in robust health
for some. months. His exact age
is not known, but he had passed the
SEVENTEEN milestone along the journey
of life. With his family he made his
home in Leavenworth from 1901 until
five years ago. Tho he had spent
most of his time for the last nine in
Alaska. He was in every respect
a good and upright citizen. At one
time he owned considerable property
here but he is believed to have lost it
all in his mining venture. The mine
whichhe worked on SO long in de-
veloping is now in litigation, and was
to have been sold last week. A tenn
porary stay of some six weeks was
granted by federal judge in Seattle
last week.

FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED
TOBACCO TASTES BETTER
TOASTED

Since the day of the caveman. who
liked his meat raw, civilization has
learned lot about the scientific treat
ment of the things we eat.
Naturally none of US would now
prefer to have our meat raw, our po-
tatoes as they come from the ground,
our coffee unroasted.
And naturally follows the great dis
covery recently made by The Ameri-
can Tobacco Co.-that tobacco tastes
better TOASTED
This wonderful new idea-simple
like all great inventions-was first
used in producing the famous LUCKY
STRIKE Cigarette-made of toasted
Burley tobacco.
Burley has mellow flavor, entirely
different from the tobacco usually
used for cigarettes. 1t is pipe to-
bsceo and LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes
taste like pipe.

TURN THIS BULL LOOSE ON THE
GERMANS.

George Van Brocklin had a close
call last Saturday. That he escaped
with broken callar bone is due to the
nearness of a fence. George works
on his fathers dairy ranch just south
of town and last Friday found it
necessary to change the grazing
ground of his bullship. George was
on a horse, but that made no diff
ference, he charged the horse and
knocked him over, and in the fall his
collar bone was broken. George says
he put fence between himself and
the mad beast. In the afternoon his
father undertook to subdue Mr.. Bull,
but he took a man with him, likewise
shot gun, when they came near
the bull he showed fight and start
ed for the men. A load of shot in
the fence stunned him but did not
take all the fight out of him and he
came again, when he got another load
of shot in the side, this seemed to
quiet him and he showed no further
fight. Mr.. Van Brocklin says he
will take no further chances with
him. This particular animal, thoro-
bred Holstein, by the way and a very
valuable animal for breeding pur-
poses, was sired by the bull that
gored Mr.. c. Hove to death in the
barn of his ranch in Chumstick valley
three years ago. He seems to have
inherited the fighting instinct of his
| sire.

High Cattle Prices
Accompany
High Beef Prices

If consumers are to pay less for
beef, livestock raisers naturally will
receive less for cattle.
If farmers are paid more for live
stock, consumers will necessarily pay
more for meat.
Swift & Company pays for cattle
approximately 90 per cent of the price
received for beef and by-products.
The remaining 10 per cent pays for
dressing, freight to market, operation
of distributing houses, and in most
cases, delivery to the retailer. Net
profits also have 20 come out Of this
10 per cent.
This margin cannot be squeezed
arbitrarily without danger of gripping
the only effective means of performing
the complex service of converting
cattle into meat and distributing this
meat to the fighting forces and to
consumers.
Swift & Company's net profit on
beef during 1917 was only N of .
cent per pound. On all products. 1t
was a little less than four cents on
each dollar of sales. Complete elimi-
nation of these profits would not affect
appreciably retail prices Of meat, or
farm prices of live stock.
Swift & Company will be glad to
cooperate in devising methods that
will improve conditions in the meat
and live stock industry.
