the AK rae from to 4 mills and
provide enough revenue for the or
dinary expenses during the year.
The county commissioners receiv-
ed the budget and the estimate OF
available revenue at a 4-mill rate,
but will not act upon it until later.
Controller Cough also suggested
in his statement to the board that
should any balance remain on hand
at the end of each year it would be
well to use it to establish a fund
for a new courthouse, and pending
the preparation of plans and other
details the money in the fund could
be invested in bonds. or otherwise,

GERMANY FEARS LOSS
OF PRESIDENTS AID
Sentence From Wilson Speech Dsquiets German
Circles; Press Says Nation That Started War
Is Not Desired in Future Community of
Powers; Lovely Beginning of League

of the western powers to take the
German colonies for themselves is
born of a spirit diametrically oppos-
ed to that proclaimed by President
Wilson. 1t appears more and more
as if it were the intention of the
western imperialists to leave to Mr..
Wilson the merely musical and de-
clamatory roles of the performance
and to reserve to themselves the
business end of the show. y
We Germans would prefer an hon
ct policy of stand and deliver to a
policy of imperial ACKNOWLEDGMENT
adorned with ethical and oratori-
cal phrases. But since America has
not yet agreed to the pact we shall
later see whether America can do
anything except make speeches."
The ollieial text, of the passage in
President WILSON'S speech of Satur-
day, alluded to in the foregoing, as
transmitted from Paris Saturday
night, heads as follows:
1T (the United States) would feel
that il could not take part in guar
anteeing those European settlements
unless the guarantee involved the
continuous supcrintendence of the
peace of the world by the associated
nations OF the world"

Berlin, Jan. 29.-President Will
sons speech of Saturday last be-
fore the Peace Congress contains the
following sentence, as transmitted
to Berlin and here retranslated from
the German:
THE United States would have a
feeling that IL could not take part
III guaranteeing these European ad-
Justmcnts unless this guaranty i'll
cludcd the permanent surveillance
of the world peace by the associated
nations of the world"
This sentence, together with the
reported decision of the supreme
council at Tuesdays session that the
German colonies must not be given
back to Germany, has disquieted
some German circles. The Boursen
Zettung for instance, says:
IF President Wilson is correctly
reported he .confesses openly that
hes too, like Premiers Clemenceau
and Lloyd George, does not desire
Germany in the future community
of nations as an equal among equals
but as a nation watched by over
seers. " The President
cannot wonder if people in Ger
many gradually begin to form the
opinion that the hopes they placed
in him are to be disappointed"
The Socialist newspaper Nor-
waerts, in commenting on the re-
port regarding the division of the
German colonies among the allied
nations, says:
