FLAX |; | !. ! < !. ! STOLEN ]! ] FROM
S''|CH.NOBRICH FARM \
THIEVES WERE BUSY DURING
FRIDAY NIGHT; S SACKS
q. MISSING ll
BUGGY AND AUTO FIGURE IN
BOLD ACT; AUTHORITIES
NOTIFIED.

When Joseph Schnobrich who lives
on the state road to Hanska about five
miles southof New Ulm arose last Saturday
morning at o'clock he was surprised
to see a top buggy standing on the road
near his premises. Thinking that some
thing had happened or was wrong he
walked out toward the road and close
enough to the buggy to recognize it as
his own. He could not explain to him
self why his buggy should be out there
but he thought no more about it and
went back to the house, had his break
fast and started to do the chores.
When he got to the granary he noticed
that six sacks Of flax which he had
standing there were gone This flax
had been threshed about week or
two weeks before and had been placed
in sacks ready to be hauled to market
as soon as it was convenient. All the
sacks were brand new and had on them
the name Of the owner.
Something Wrong.
Then it dawned upon Mr.. Sch nobrich
that something was radically WRONG
that he had been victimized by thieves
and he made further Investigations.
He noticed tracks leading from the
sgranary to the road, by the road he
noticed automobile tracks from which
it was assumed that an auto had been
used to haul away the booty. From the
appearance Of the tracks on the road
Mr.. Schnobrich is quite certain that the
automobile had started north toward
New Ulm. The buggy had been used
for hauling the fax from the granary
to the automobile and only one trip
had been made as there was only one
track visible. The tracks were plain
~ visible having evidently been made
after the rain which fell shortly after
8 o clock ia the evening. Mr.. Schno-
brich IS positive that at least two strong
men were concerned in the theft be-
cause it required lat least that many men

CUTOVER LANDS ARE
LISTED FOR DISPOSAL
BY CHAS. s. HAYDEN.
fStaff Correspondent,O

WASHINGTON, June efforts are
to be made by the government for the
utilization OF tho millions of acres OF
cut-over lands throughout the country,
A recommendation Is now before the
secretary of agriculture and, II ne APP
proves It, legislation will be introduced
In congress calling for a survey OF these
lands with a view OF determining that
for which they are best adapted.
It Is urged that while some or these
lands will be suitable only for retorest-
ing others, denending upon the c4arac-
ter OF the soil, nay be converted into
pasturage by the planting Of grasses
| especially adapted to the soil ana ell
mate. This survey doubtless would be
undertaken by the department Of agrl-
culture and DR.. c: V. Piper, OF Ihe pu-
reau of plant industry and a leading
authority on grasses, already has given
this matter some consideration.
While most Of these lands are In the
South there are also enormous acreages
in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan
and these, too, would be included IN
the proposed survey,
The inmmensity of the empire which
might thus be redeemed may be seen
from the fact that records Of the de-
partment show there are now n hum
bred million acres OF such lands in the
South Atlantic states alone. In the
| northern forest belt there are some
fifty million acres and much Of this,
1t Is urged, ia fit for agriculture as
soon as the stumps can be removed.
All the rest would be highly desirable
for pasture land and in a section where
the live stock industry already has
reached a high point of development, -.
1t is pointed out that this survey will
be necessary in any event II the plan
of colonization for soldiers is deter
mined upon as It is contemplated TO
use some Of those cut-oyer lands for
soldier colonies.

COBLENZ CAPITAL
Of RHINE STATE
Proclamation Issued Shows
Republic Is Formed to
Make Peace Secure.

PARIS, June 2-Coblenz will be the
capital of the new Rhine republic.
which VAS proclaimed Yesterday in
several Rhine cities. The new govern
ment and national assembly will meet
there, but the provisional government
viii sit at Weisbaden. Portions Of the
proclamation have been telegraphed
70 the Echo de Paris from Metz by
Maurice Barres.
One significant section follows:
We declare the autonomous Rhenish
republic to be founded on the bosom Of
Germany. II is a pacific republic which
Is composed OF the Rhenish province,
Old Nassau, Rhenish Hesse and the
palatinate. The foundation rests on the
following basis:
1.-The frontiers will remain the
same, including B%irkenfeld.
"~2-Changes in frontiers can be made
only with the approval of other nations
interested as established by a plebiscite,
"S-rhe provisional government OF
the Rhenish republic Is exercised by the
undersigned delegates OF the people.
"4-Elections for the Rhenish national
assembly will be held without delay, ac-
cording to the methods of the German
national assembly. :
"Coblenz is to be the capital Of the
new government and the national as
sembly will meet there. The provisional
government will sit at Wiesbaden.
Local authorities Will continue to eNer-
else control for the time being. The
provisional government will take the
place OF the central government and
the Prussian, Bavarian and Hessian
governments, (Signedl
"RHENISH HESSIAN-NASSAU
COMMITTEE,
"PALATINATE COMMITTEE.

Another passage shows the movement
not to be separatist, but anti-Prussian.
1t says:
Violence from whatever side must
disappear. The Rhenish people honest
ly n sincerely wishes peace based on
a reconciliation Of all peoples. That is
why 1t separates itself from the insti-
buttons which are the bases Of so many
ways, feudalism and militarism. 1t
thereby eliminates an obstacle standing
in the way of a genuine peace"
NJ. Barres says that DR.. Borden,
president Of the new republic. is the
soul of the movement. He is from
Bonn, and before the war was a magis-
trate, During the war he was a Ger
man officer.
He is one of those ideallst Rhine
landers who have never been recon
ciled to the subsection Of the left bank
Of the Rhine to brutal exploitation by
Prussia" Mr.. Barres writes. we are
in the presence of the temperance of
the old Germany with which our fathers
were abel to enter into agreements and
sometimes to entertain friendships.
This happy event became possible only
through the admirable conduct and
political sense of the allied armies"
