TO COMBINE WITH B0LsHEvIKI.

Copenhagen. March 23--(By the As
sociated Press. The new Hungaria
government has proclaimed solidarit
with the Russian soviet government an
armed alliance with the proletariat O
Russia.
A dispatch received from Budapes
dated Saturday gives the proclamation o
the new Hungarian government as fol
lows:
"The proIetariat of Hungary
from today has taken all power in
its own hands. BY the decision of
the Paris conference to occupy Hun
gary, provisioning of revolutionary
Hungary becomes utterly impossi-
bic.
"Under these circumstances the
sole means open for the Hungarian
government is a dictatorship of the
proietariat.
Legislative, executive ard ju-
diciaI authority will be exercised by
a dictatorship of the workers, peas
ants and soldiers councils. The
revolutionary government council
will begin forthwith work for the
realization of communist socialism.
"The council DEGREES the sociaI-
zation of large estates. mines, big
industries, banks and transport
lines, declares complete solidarity
with the Russian soviet government
and offers to contract an armed al
lance with the proletariat of Rus
Sja"

Victory Loan.

District Chairman N. N. Mclean
was in Denver on Tuesday attending
the meeting of the state chairmen and
workers to organize for the coming
drive to put over the Fifth Liberty
Loan to be known as the Victory Loan.
The meeting was largely attended and
all the workers from State Chairman
S. ID. Nicholson down expressed their
belief that in the new form of short
time certificates at higher interest
rate the state would without question
meet tbs quota. 1t has been definitely
decided that the certificates will be for
five years only, and if the rate is put
at reasonable figure they will cer-
tainly pass for par, making them a
better investment for the public than
the previous loans. The campaign
will begin on April 21 and last three
weeks. All county chairmen in Mr..
McLean's district remained on the job
except one, and most of the local work
ing force will remain the same, all
being determined to see the job
through. Perhaps it is only a coinci-
dence, but the only county chairman
who is a gutter is democrat. They
don't seem to enjoy holding jobs with
out pay when their party is collecting
and distributing billions.

Death of Stephen Scott.

Another one of the Lamar pioneers
passed away last week when Mr..
Stephen Scott died at a hospital in
Wichita. Kansas, as a result Of an
operation. He had been in poor health
for several years and went to the hos
pital in hopes that he would be bene-
fitted by an operation. The body was
brought to Lamar and the funeral
service was held from the undertaking
parlors on Tuesday of this week. The
deceased came here from Missouri in
1887 and has been a resident Of La
mar and vicinity ever since. His wife
died in Lamar about three years ago,
and he is survived by four sons and
one daughter. Mr.. Scott was a sub
stantial stock grower and business
man and a good citizen who had al
ways taken lively interest in the well
fare of the town and county. The
family have the deepest sympathy of
many friends in their great loss.

Henry Starr Parolcd.

Reports published from Oklahoma
are to the effect that Henry Starr, who
was sentenced to twenty-five years in
the Oklahoma pen for bank robbery
has been paroled. Starr has about ten
years of his Colorado parole still to
run. He was sent to the pen here in
1909 for twenty years for the robbery
of the bank at Amity of which As
SCISSOR A. j. Davy was cashier, and in
about two years was paroled to re-
main in the state until his sentence
expired. He lived for few months
in this county and then skipped out
for Oklahoma, where for two years
he terrorized the state, robbing near
ly twenty banks. In his last attempt
he was shot in the leg by a sixteen
year old boy and easily captured then.
1t seems as if the parole system works
pretty soft for men like Starr, and as
there are still forty-six states for him
to operate in, he should have no trouble
making an honest living robbing
banks.

EVIDENCE MAKES KING
APPEAR A BOOZE FIGHTER

LONDON.-Everybody knows that
King George is one of the most alb
stemious Of men With respect to
alcoholic beverages. Yet a list of
royal warrant holders published in
the London Gazette, the official organ
of the government, shows that eleven
distillers of whiskey are entitled to
call themselves purveyors by appoint
ment to the king. Nineteen brewers,
or dealers in beer, may claim the
same distinction. In respect of wines
the kings official record is in most
striking contrast to his well merited
reputation for absemiousness. Some
thing like fifty wine producers and
wine merchants can boast of receiv-
ing his patronage.
It may be taken for granted that
King George never even samples
most Of the brands of strong drink
which his name is used to advertise.
There is much that is mere make
believe in the acts that are ascribed
to king.

SUNFLOWER SILAGE

| SPOKANE.-"Th is no reason
that grades of seed potatoes to equal
the best of the middle west and the
New England states can not be grown
in eastern Washington and northern
Idaho, and | believe those interested
in the horticulture welfare of the
community should promote a move
ment for the growth of better Seeds -
said B. R. Bennett, Idaho, state horti-
culturist, speaking before the agri-
culture and fruit conference commit
tee at the Davenport Monday noon.
81 see 10 reason that the money of
the western farmer should be sent
east when conditions here are so fa-
vorable for the growth of all the seed
potatoes needed jim the west. The
things necessary for such a produc-
tion is q bette understanding of the
methods of the seed grower, together
with study of the kinds of seeds
marketable.
"Both are easily obtained and with
the natural adaptability of the COM
munity, northern Idaho and eastern
Washington should produce all of the
seed potatoes used by Oregon, Cali
