WITHIN A SMALL CIRCLE

The Independent:
Chancellor Won Hertling loves peace
70 much that he would be very happy
to have the Allies humbly approach
with olive branch in hand whenever
they are ready seriously" to make
specific peace proposals." We will
not reject them" says his Imperial
Excellency, 'and we will speak, to be-
gin, within small circle"
Within a small circle the plot was
hatched that plunged the world into
the abyss.
Within "a small circle, the conspir-
acy was made to violate friendly Bel
gium.
Within a small circle, the decision
was taken to manufacture poison gas,
to murder women and children at sea,
and to drive conquered nations into
slavery.
Within a small circle-a very smaH
circle-the medieval monarchs and
militarists still strut, parceling out
the lives and fortunes of their own
deluded people, as they would their
enemies If victorious in this war.
II is to the everlasting honor Of
Woodrow Wilson that he is speaking
within a circle wide enough for every
free-born man on earth to hear and
understand. No locked doors for him
No elderly beribboned aristocrats sit
ting around a green table shuiflins
the stacked cards for another deal to
preserve rotten dynastie and stifle
popular aspirations.
Our president is talking from the
house tops to the free air! This and
this alone is the atmosphere in which
mated fumes for US within small
circle.

NON-PARTISAN LEAGUE
AGENT is ORDERED OUT
Custer County Council of Defense
Forcibly But Peacefully Orders
Him Orders.

Mackay Miner
The executive committee of the
Custer County Council of Defense, at
meeting held last Thursday after
noon, considered the effect of the
work being done by organizers of the
Non-Partisan League in Custer Coun-
ty, and decided that the people of the
county were getting along together
pretty well; and that we were all
united for the common purpose of
winning the war and that other mat
ters were pertinent thereto.
Il having come to the attention of
the Council of Defense that organi-
zers for the Non Partisan League
were al work in the county, it was
decided to interview such representa-
tives and ask them to discontinue
operations and this was done.
The organizer was told that Custer
County citizens were working hard to
meet their obligations to the govern
ment, that the different war drives
had drained considerable money from
usual channels, and that in the opinion
of the council thei work bf the league
should be stopped in this county.
Mr.. Charles kitching, who repre-
sented the league, at once took ex-
ception to the remarks of the execu-
tive committee, and after a somewhat
heated discussion, he was asked IL he
would discontinue taking members in
this county. He at once replied that
he would. He shook hands with the
committee and departed with the
statement that there We're no hard
feelings.
On Monday. it was learned that Mr..
kitching had resumed operatinons in
this county. and that he was solicit
ing members on Alder Creek bench.
The Council of Defense attempted TO
locate MIN, but were unsuccessful.
However, they were made acquainted
with the fact that Mr.. kitching had
announced at a Sunday school meeting
at Leslie, that meeting would be
held at the school house Monday
evening, therefore, when the council
met in regular session on Monday
night, the council voted unanimously
to go to Leslie in n body and ask the
organizer to discontinue efforts TO
secure members in this county. Some
twenty members Of the Council went
to Leslie in cars, arriving there before
the hour set for the Non Partisan
meeting and before Mr.. Kitching and
another organizer from Butte county
arrived. Upon their arrival they were
told that the word of the organizer
had been broken and that the council
had come to Leslie in body to in
sist that hire should be cessation of
operations by League representatives,
and after n somewhat heated debate,
the two representatives of the Nom
Partisan League jumped into their
cars and headed for Arco. Before
leaving, Mr.. kitching agreed to re-
turn some $1,000 checks to men whom
he had talked into becoming members
of the League.
Before leaving. Mr.. Kitching wired
the Boise office Of the League that
he had been ordered to discontinue
operations and that request had been
made not to send in any other organi-
Zers.

come one q Ine most OarOdrOuB kuOWu
in history. Not only have they en-
ployed these atrocious weapons. but
the Belgian government has openly en-
couraged and long since carefully pre-
pared the participation Of the Belgian
civil population In the fighting. The
atrocities committed even BY women
and priests In this guerrilla warfare,
also on wounded soldiers medical stan
and nurses, doctors killed. hospitals
attacked By rife fire, were such that
my generals finally were compelled to
take the most drastic measures In or
der to punish the guilty and to fright
en- the bloodthirsty population from
continuing their work Of vile murder
and horror. Some villages and even
the old town Of Loewen (Iouvain).
excepting the fine hotel de Vile, had
to be destroyed in self-defense, and
for the protection of my troops. My
heart bleeds when I see that such
measures have become unavoidable
and when think Of the numerous in

IN MEMORY OF SOLDIERS.

Editor The Richmond Virginian.
Dear Sir--rhe daily papers of the
city have contained suggestions as to
the best way to commemorate the
unsurpassed valor and sacrifice of
RE hmond's soldiers, both living and
dead, who helped to gain the victory
Of the rniliiarism OF Germany One
Of these suggestions was that we erect
monument OF stone, the other that
bronze tables bearing the names Of
our soldiers be placed on the bridge
over the James river.
Either Of these suggestions would
be a beautiful expression of sent-
ment. but neither of them, If carried
out. would prove of much practical
benefit TO the living.
Permit me 30 suggest two ways in
which sentiment an be combined
with utility Richmond is sadly in
need of Il public library. Take the
70 s,s9 h9>3 hap Naptd baSsl ut hi a stone
monument or bronze tablets On the
bridge and erect a library. The
nare9 nj the soldiers and their heroic
deeds can be perpetuated hy tablets
and rosters on lis walls. Thus the
names and deeds of our noble Young
men who fought libertys great battle
can be perpetuated while at the same
time the living could, and would.
derive incaiculs bic benefit
Another suggestion: There are
seyerai splendid colleges in our city.
lot several hundred scholarships be
founded in 'hom in memory OF our
soldier boys. both living and dead
The Young men and women who re-
cetYed the benefits of these scholar
ships knowin~ the great sacrifice of
the soleierS who made them possible,
would he inspired TO a like patriotic
life and service This leaven of col
lege men and women injected year
after year into the life OF Richmond
would prove Of far greater benefit to
the city and humanity than would a
stone monument or tablets of bronze
