THE Hague, May 5.-A Berlin tele-
gram says that Eduard Bernstein
and DR.. Bohenleiden, Of the commit
tee Of inquiry into accusations on the
vital point OF international law re-
lating to the treatment Of prisoners Of
war in Germany, have sent a declara-
ton to the vorwaerts in which they
differ from the judgments OF the COM
mittee in regard to the sentence and
execution Of Captain Fryatt.
They say that from general per-
sonal consideration we declare our
selves in a disagreement with the
committees judgment and that the
action against Captain Fryatt and his
condemnation is an act OF serious
violation of international law. We
wish expressly to state that the com
mittee has examined this case very
carefully and conscientiously and we
have arrived at the conviction that
the doing OF Fryatt to death was
judicial murder.

BERGER IS GETTING
CONGRESS SALARY

Congressional sentiment which op-
poses seating Congressman-elect Vic
tor Berger, Socialist, OF Wisconsin,
now in a Federal prison for violation
OF the espionage law, was intensified
yesterday by the discovery that his
monthly salary of 1925 is being paid
to him by the sergeant-atarms Of the
House. Mr.. Berger already has been
paid $3.50 out OF the salary fund for
the House, and will continue to re-
ceiVe that stipend until Congress
sional action is taken 10 prevent II.
The sergeant-at arms asserts that
he has no option under the law but
to pay Mr.. Berge: his salary. The
statutes are mandatory that after a
man Is elected he shall receive his
salary monthly, beginning March 4.
The second installment has just been
paid.
Undoubtedly as soon as Congress
convenes action will be taken toward
unseating Mr.. Berger. Shortly Nter
the election Congressman G, tett,
slated for Speaker, announced tina he
would OFFER a resolution to unseat Ihe
Wisconsin Socialist.

Joe Dolin has gone stark mad.

Joe Dolin has gone stark mad.
Trembling as the gates of Deer
Lodge yawn, and maddened by
winters debauch at the Twin Cities
last winter, upon the proceeds of
false claims presented to and hon
ored by his erstwhile friends, the
county commissioners, goes stark
mad and in his frenzy attacks friends
and foes alike, as the "Proverbial
Bull in the china closet"
It is likely that perjured bills and
false claims presented to the county
are the ghosts that haunt him in his
sleep; for to present a false claim
to the county is a felony; to swear
that a claiga is valid, when it is a
fraud, is a perjury and also felony.
Already injunction papers are be-
ing prepared to stop payment on IL
legal warrants, mounting into the
thousands of dollars and the editor
of the Pioneer Press will have an
opportunity to tell his troubles to
the judge.
It is figured that by speedy action
about ten thousand dollars, il
legally paid out of the county treas
ury to the editor of the local Mon
tana Loyalty League organ can be
saved to the taxpayers.

THE HEART OF
HUMANITY" COMING

"The Heart of Humanity" which is
to be presented at the Orpheum
theatre on Monday, May 5th, with
Dorothy Phillips in the featured role,
is an eight-reel Allen Holubar pro-
duction which brings to the screen
the inspiring story of woman's efforts
to alleviate the sufferings of the
wounded and orphaned and homeless
during the days when France and
Belgium were SCARED and scared by
sword and torch, and pounded and
rocked by great German guns. 1t
depicts the tenderness of the moth
er-heart in its conflict with the hor-
rors of war. 1t pays a deserved trl-
butte to womanhood as expressed in
the Red Cross nurse. 1t presents a
side of the ware which we have been
too prone to overlook.
The story of "The Heart of HUI
manity" was written by Olga Scholl
and Allen Holubar, adapted for the
screen by Mr.. Holubar and produced
bv him. 1t deals with the romance
of Nanette, the little ward of Faith
er Michael, parish priest of a COM
munity in the Canadian Northwest.
While the parishioners are celebrat-
ing the marriage of Nanette and
John, the oldest and bravest Of the
Widow Patricia's five sons, news
comes of the declaration of war by
| Germany.
John answers the call to the col
ors, and, with three of his brothers
en1ists in the Canadian Expedition
arv Forces. Eventually the fifth boy
goes. Johns letters to Nanette de-
scribe the sufferings endured by
French and Belgian children so VI
wildly that the mother-heart in Nan
cite is awakened and she determines
| to go abroad as Red Cross nurse.
On the war-torn fields of Flanders
| the little wife meets her husband but
once, after which she is captured b!
the Germans. They are reunited
however, after a series, of thrilling
scenes, which vividly portray tht
| final hating of the great German
drive and then the counter-attaci
which sent the Prussian hordes nee
ing for refuge to their own border
Through the entire production
there runs a thread of heart interes
that makes "The Heart of Humani
