HaIy'S campaign in tho war has
been attended with serious diffirul-

Man Power n Problem Too.
The problem Of man power has
been acute. From the beginning
OF the war, Italy has called to arms
Il little less than J,JJO,OOO men and
has suffered loss OF l.5OO.OOO In
the recent fighting on the Austrian
front, italy has had at her disposal
only 81 divisions with which to OPP
pose the 20 divisions OF the enemy.
1t IL also said that the forces sent
10y Italy into France, Albania, Mace
dOnia and Palestine have been great
er than the combined forces sent into
Italy by the allies. Until the NOnclu-
sion OF the Austrian armistiCe, there
was not n single existing division OF
Italia troops which was not active
In bome one OF the thCaters OF war.
In the matter OF INDUSTRIES and
natural resources, Italy was not we'll
prepared to enter the war. She
lacked coal, for example. In spite
Of these various handiCaps, Italy has
fought with great Obstinacy. Among
her bravcst fighting men have be, !
soldiers from the unredcemcd PROV
inCes OF the Austrian Tyrul. The
re-occupation OF these lands merely
means that Italy has got back to her
own once again. The Italian flag
which floats over the newly won
Trentino will be hailed with tho
graetest satisfaction hy the popula-
tion. for they have always been
thoroughly Italian in speech, ira
ditions, and patriotism.

have led to a serious diplomatic
defeat. For Italy, too, was pro-
Serb, and, with her Balkan in
terests, stood rather opposed to
Austria. That is to say, Won
Jagow admits that war was chos-
en- by Germany as an alternative
to an international conference,
which would have declared the
Austrian demands on Serbia un-
just even in the eyes of Italy, the
ally of Austria and of Germany.
How did these confessions
come to be made?
DR.. MuhlOn'S Conscience
With DR.. Muhlon it was evil
IDENTIFY a case of conscience.
When the war began he resign
ed his position as a director of
Krupp's Works, at Essen, and
retired to his estate in Switzer-
land, near Berne. There he liv-
ed a retired life. After a time
reports began to circulate of
statements which he had made
to visitors. and he was put under
the surveillance of spies from
the German embassy at Berne.
Later, members from the Social
ist Party in the Reichstag visited
him, and the Germrn press re-
ported that a retired Krupp Off
cial living in Switzerland claim
ed to be in possession of certain
secrets seriously compromising
the honor of the German Govern
ment in the matter of the re-
sponsibility for the war;" The
newspapers began to hint that
this official was out of his mind.
DR.. Muhlon's statements were
then published either as vindi-
cation of him or "a an exposure
which should aid the democratic
revolution in Germany.
With Prince Lichnowsky it is a
different matter. He is a noble
man of semi-royal lineage, the
sixth prince of the princedom of
Gratz in Austria and Kuchelna in
Prussia. His grandfather was
one of Beethoven's patrons. Bee
thoven wrote many of his works

The Snowflake herald., 1918-06-28
DR.. MuhlOn'S Evidence

DR.. Muhlon, of the boaad of
Krupp's directors, does not make
a summing up. He merely gives
evidence that in the middle of
July, 1914, he had a business con-
versation with a director of the
Deutsche Bank in Berlin, who
advised him that the bank would
not assist Krupps in certain
large transactions in Bulgaria
and Turkey" because the polite
al situation had become very
menacing" and the Deutsche
Bank would have to wait be
fore entering into any further
engagements abroad. F" This di-
rector of the Deutsche Bank was
DIR. Helfferich, since vice chan
cellor of Germany. He explain
ed: The Austrians have just
been with the Kaiser. In a
weeks time the Austrians will
send a very severe ultimatum to
Serbia, with a very short inter-
val for an answer. :. A whole
series of definite satisfctions will
be demanded at once; otherwise
Austria-Hungary will declare war
on Serbia, :"
This is the ultimattm about
which the German authorities
have insisted they were not con-
suited.
DR.. Muhlon continues: DIR.
Helfferich added that the Kaiser
had expressed his decided approv-
al of this procedure on the part
of Austria-Hnngary, He had
said that he regarded a conflict
with Serbia as an internal affair
between these two countries, ir
which he would permit no other
state to interfere. If Russia
modified he would mobilize also.
But in his case mobilization meant
immediate war.
This uncanny communica'
tion." DR.. Muhlon says, "cOn'
verted my fears of a world war,
which were already strong, into
absolute certainty" He consult
The Snowflake herald., 1918-06-28

ed with Herr Krupp von BOhlen
himself, in Berlin. And Krupp
confirmed the news. He said
that the Kaiser had told him
(Krupp) that he would declare
war Immediately if Russia mob
ilized, and that this time people
would see that he did not turn
shout. The Kaiser's repeated
insistence that this time nobody
would be able to accuse him of
indecision had, he said, been al
most comic in it's effect.
On the day the Austrian ulti-
matum to Serbia was delivered
the Kaiser was on a yachting
trip in the North Sea. The fact
has often been advanced as a
proof of German innocence. But
when DR.. Muhlon read the ulti-
matum to Serbia he had another
interview with Helfferich, and
he testifes that "Helfferich said
to me that the Kaiser had gone
on his northern cruise only as a
blind; he had not arranged the
cruise on the usual extensive
scate, but was remaining close
st hand and keeping in constant
touch.
Won JagOw's Admission
And finally Herr Won Jagow,
Gernany's foreign ministe. at
the outbreak of the wsr. in re-
plying to Prince Lichnowsky's
evidence, makes this startling
admission, among others: L by
no means share the opinion prev
alent among us to-day that Eng
land laid all the mines for the
outbreak of the war; on the con-
trary, l believe in Sir Edward
Grey's love of peace and in his
ernest wish to arrive at an
agreement with us. :. Neither
was the war popular with the
English people. Belgium had to
serve as a battle field, Won ia
gov even admits that war might
have been averted by an inter
national conference on the Ser.
ban situation. I'VE could not
agree" he says, to the English
proposal of a conference of am
bassadors, for it would doubtless

The Hunt element of democ-
racy were very insistent on hav-
ing the legislature meet in spec
ial session, and walls were going
up all over the state demanding
it, as they had visions it would
be of great political advantage;
but now when it is too late they
find themselves very sick and the
party almost disrupted. Kilken-
ney cats were enjoying peace
full purring time as compared to
the two wings of democracy in
the apecial session. They could
not even pass the bill condemn

1t might be we'll if the county
highway commission made per-
sonal inspection of all contract
road work done under their di-
rection before paying the con-
tractors. We do not know how
other sections of the county are
faring in the road work being
done, but if they are getting the
same deal as Winslow the $780,
600 road bond issue will be all
wasted money. The only work so
far done in this part of the coun-
ty is a three-mile strip west to
the county line, and if the con-
tractor was paid his contract
price, which we understand was
$1,000, he probably cleaned up
$14OO on the deal. There are not
ten rods of the road built accord
ing to the specifications, and the
gravel surfacing is conspicuous
for it's absence. If our road con-
tractors are grating on this
work it is time the highway COM

Senator Mayfeld and Judge
Ryan left in their automobile
Wednesday afternoon for the
central portion of the state to
personally supervise the load
ing and shipping of standard rig
they recently purchased for use

planned to expedite the arrival

wagons to haul it overland

and unless unforeseen difficulties
arise this plan will becarried out.
Just what the people of Hol-
brook and surrounding country
may reasonably expect as re-
suit of the finding of oil is best
shown by men who have made
all the way from a paltry $3.50. :
600 on an investment of $40 up
to the princely sum of $15, 0O0,-
600 during the past four years.
Never in the history of oil have
such prices obtained and never
has there been such great de-
mand with a resultant shortage to
continue those prices in existence
Six of the country's leading
geolOgists have recently told us
that our chances for opening up
a great oil field on the HolbroOk
anticline are equally as great as
were those of Kansas, Ohio,
Oklahoma and other great oil
producing states. Our chances,
we have been told, are infinitely
better, from a geological stand
point, than many of the fields
opened up in those states. The
next list of new oil milliOnaires
may very easily include the
names of some of our Holbrook
citizens who are showing faith
by the investment of their per-
sonal funds in the drilling OF
wells on we'll chosen sites.

Senator Fred Sutter is the

governor. Thesenator thorough
ly bombarded the Hunt admins
tration and it is understood that
he would be the anti-Hunt candi-
date. Sutter entering the race
has stirred up the Hunt element
from cellar to garret; some want
Golfer to withdraw and let Null

there is a great majority who
maintain that Hunt is the only
man who can dig them out of the

One of the most amusing
things to the average reader to-

appeal of the Democratic papers,
who are receiving their full

how patriotic they are! There
should be no politics-except
their kind. You are not patrio-

They need the money. There
should be no election until they
are plumb satiated. Sure, it is
