TO PUBLISH REPORT
ON ORIGIN OF WAR

BERLIN, April 6.-Cnder demands
Of the radicals, the German foreign
office has agreed to publish Karl
lKautsky's report regarding the origin
OF the war, according to Hugo Haase,
who has held several conferences re-
Gently with Foreign Minister Brock
dorff- Rantzau. The report was COM
piled from archives Of the foreign Of
fee.
1t was rumored that the conferences
concerned possible formation OF a
new ministry by Haase, including
Brockdorff- Rantzau, in his present
capacity. but Haase denied this. He
said he and Kautsky had threatened
to reveal the foreign office secrets
themselves il Brockdorff refused to
authorize publication of Kautskyls
papers.
The radicals arc disappointed be-
cause the report probably will not
be published until after peace is
signed, but they figure it is better to
make the revelations late than never.

An Appreciated Line From Rev.
Fertir

st. John, Wash, Dec. 2.-Dear
Friend Conger: l notice an item
in your good news paper that you
are compelled to raise the price of
the same. This is no surprise to
me, as all articles are costing
much more, and 1 herewith re-
NIT for couple Of years.
We have held on to the people
of Nezperce longer than we gen
orally do when our pastorate
closes at place and thus we have
enjoyed the news. The letters
from the boys in the army were
of great value to us.
Our daughter, Alice, came home
from Chicago where she has been
in music study for two years.
Three months of that time she
was on the Chautauqua platform
in the two Dakotas, Iowa, Illinois,
Indiana, and Ohio.
She will remain with us for
some time and after the holidays
she may hold some concerts at
places where she has been known
as member Of our family. We
were all together on Thanksgiv-
ing day, the first time in six
years. All met in the old home
in Spokane. Sincerely yours,
7. II. Fertig.

some country home affairs where
all find lots Of enjoyment and
there are no blank spaces in the
program nor chance to think of
what will be doing next until the
call for home and sleep closes the

up the principal portion of the
score until the call came for re-
freshments, and then-nothing

Widow DR.. A. J. Cooper Married

Word was received by friends
here this week that Mrs. Eliza
beth Cooper. widow of the late
DR.. A. j. Cooper, and Charles L.
Montague were married on No
vember 25 at Bisbee, Arizona.
They will reside at Cananea, Son.
ora, Mexico.
DR.. and Mrs. Cooper were
among the pioneers of Nezperce,
and they with their two children
left here about eight years ago to
take up their residence in Texas.
About a year later the Doctor and
son, Jack, were struck by a train,
while returning down a railroad
track from a days fishing, and
instantly killed. Since then only
occasional word has been receiv-
ed by old friends here from the
widow and daughter, and news of
the marriage comes as a surprise
to this community.
DIR. and Mrs. Cooper were
among the most popular of our
earlier citizens, and The Herald
joins these friends of other days
in extending congratulations and
best wishes.

Dear Friend: Just few words

this part of Colorado.
I arrived here last Saturday ;
found the children enjoying good
health. Edith is in the 7th grade

and a quarter to walk to the
school at Oakgrove. The baby
girl has grown, but is the same
bunch of energy. They are very
happy and contented with their
aunt and grandmother, Mrs. E. J.
Bretherton.
Land in this country is very
high, Improved orchard tracts
are selling for about $500 per acre.
The fruit crop was total failure
this year, owing to a very heavy
frost June /, 2, and 8. There are
a few potatoes, but "a short crop
owing to heavy frosts in the early
part Of July which | am told lev

always felt that there is no place
under the sun where conditions

on the hill, and when | get back
