THE JOBS THE BOYS
LEFT BEHIND THEM.

Many expedients have been suggest.
ed as to what is the best thing we can
do to make places for returning sol
diers and sailors.
Reclaiming land by clearing stumps,
reclamation, irrigation, drainage, ETC.,
are sought to be made popular UNDER
takings.
Allowing for the restless and unset
tied frame of mind produced in many
men by war, most Of them will want to
return to their jobs.
Unemployment is ruthless enemy,
and what any man wants first OF all
who works for living, is job, upon
his return to civil life.
The first thing for our returning mil
lions OF men is good times with busi-
ness and industry in a vigorous, up
looking condition.
The worst thing for our boys coming
home is to find Industry slack, business
slow and prosperity minus article.
Industries should not, be hampered
and discouraged by foolish legislative
experiments, regulations and high
taxes.

Orofino Out of Danger
From Flu" Epidemic

At this writing there is little danger
from the influenza epidemic in Orofino.
The hospital was closed nearly a week
ago and the rooms cleaned up and fum-
igated. The few isolated cases around
town are all on the road to recovery
and there is no danger from that
source. There are two cases from
the work train gang, but they have
been kept under strict quarantine. A
fresh outbreak Of the contagion is
hardly probable if people will take or
dinary precaution in taking care OF
their health. Don't get panicky and
the stflu" will be like the kaiser, down
and out.

and peace demonstrations are giving
the authorities much trouble. Should
the people be permitted to learn the
whole truth regarding the disastrous
failure of the Austrian offensive, there
is a lively possibility of a blow-up in
Austria Hungary that would make it
difficult for the country to remain in
the war
The Germans understand the. seri-
business of the sitpation confronting
Austria. They realize the need of an
Austrian victory in Italy and of send
ing German troops to aid in winning
the victory. If Germany had mil
lion troops to spare they would be
quickly sent to the assistance of the
Austrians, but Germany probably can
not spare any considerable number
of troops. To materially reinforce the
Austrians with German divisions from
the western front would be to weak
en- the German line in France and to
postpone further efforts here, if it
did not invite dangerous blow from
the Allies. Not to send reinforce
ments to the Austrians means that the
Austrian crisis may go from bad to
worse and become a menace to the
German cause.
1t is Germany's problem, and no
doubt it is worrying the war lords.
Probably they will send the Austri-
ans a few troops for moral effect and
leave the situation in Italy to take
care of itself while they renew their
offensive in France, That is what
Premier Lord George appears to an
ticipate and he expects the next drive
to be the most desperate the Germans
have yet undertaken. He also seems
confident of the ability of the Allies
to offer effective resistance.-Herald-

GERMANS IN A QUANDARY


1t is easy to see that the German
military leaders are now in something
Of quandary, and that while the En-
tente Allies are still confronted with
a crisis in the West the situation is
by no means encouraging to the Cen
trail Powers.
The attempted drive Of the Austri-
ans in Italy was quickly turned into
a disastrous route. With fine cour-
age and determination the Italians
met and defeated the invaders, who
had calculated that their furious dash
would carry them to the Venetian
plains, place them in contact with Ital
ian food stores, and virtually drive
Italy out of the war. Instead of achiev
ing such q complete and much need
ed victory the Austrians have been so
thoroughly beaten that there is ques
ton whether they can recover in time
to strike another blow at the Italians
this summer
What effect this defeat will have on
the situation in Austria-Hungary re-
mains to be seen. There is wide
spread suffering and discomfort in
the Dual Empire, where hunger riots
