ASSESSOR GEMM|LL STATES
ASSESSMENT ARTICLE WRONG

mil gives the assessed valuation of
the warehouses on railroad right of
ways at $49,260. This does not in
lclude elevators as they are classed
las improvements on privately owned
land, or warehouses on private land"
Do you believe that the foregoing
statement published as it was with
out effort at display will relieve the
county officers and taxpayers whom
you have indirectly charged with the
offense of conspiracy to avoid paying
a just proportion of their taxes from
the stigma you have imposed upon
them? | shall give a copy OF this let
ter to the Latah County Press for
publication, and / demand that you
correct so near as possible the wrong
you have perpretated. by publishing
the facts regarding the assessments
you have so misrepresented. The tax
rolls are open to public inspection, and
all | ask is justice and fair play. You
are guilty of libel, and the member
of your staff who is correspondent for
the Spokesman Review has placed that
paper in an equally unenviable posi-
ton. Retract and admit that you pre-
varicated.

Germans Must Make Retribution. Give
Up Stolen Goods.

Germans Must Make Retribution. Give
Up Stolen Goods.
London, Jan. 15.-The new armistice
terms to be presented to Germany by
Marshal Foch are unofIlcially stated
here to include the following:
First. the retribution upon the Ger
mans for the murder and ill-treatment
of allied prisoners.
Second, The machinery and goods
stolen by Germany from France and
Belgium to- be at once given up. 1t is
pointed out France alone has soc, 900
men who will be out Of work until this
machinery is returned.
Third, German gold, amounting to
more than 1Oo,00O,O0O pounds, to be
moved from Berlin to safe place,
probably Frankford, and protected
from Bolshevism in Germany on route.
Certain other property to be surren-
dered
Forth. Germany to give over her
shipping, Of which she is believed to
have 100000 tons, to carry food sup
plies to countries in Europe in need
of them.
Fifth. U-boats on the stocks to be
handed over to the allies for their
disposal or to be destroyed and no
more submarines should be built.
London, Jan. 15.-The Central News
declares that as a result OF the allied
discussions in Paris the whole ASPECT
,of dcmobilization has undergone a
sudden and vital change, this being
shown in the drastic conditions de-
mandcd Of Germany for renewal of
the armistice.
"On authority Of an unmpcachablc
character" says the Central News, at
can be stated that a situation exists
in Europe under which war may break
out again at any moment. The allied
war concil has arrived at decision
which means that the British people
have mistaken the appearance of peace
for reality. This decision means that
the new British ministry must revise
the whole scheme Of army demobili-
zation.
"The decision is that Great Britain,
in proportion to its military strength,
must maintain an army Of occupation
on the Rhine for many months. If the
rapid increase in rehabilitation re-
Gently announced were continued,
there would in a few months he no
army in France to undertake the OBJ
| legations which. by common decision
Of the allies have been placed upon
