What About Wilhelm?

Washington, May 6,-The Repub-
lican Publicity association, through its
president. Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr.,
today gave out the following state
ment from its Washington headquar-
tiers:
"Is Bill the Butcher to get off scot
free? Is the muddle which Mr. Wilson
is stirring up in Europe to screen the
escape of this arch-conspirator against
mankind? Is this advance agent of
Antichrist, if not the apocalyptic
Beast himself to find safe refuge be-
meath the academic skirts of a man
whose imperialism was repudiated at
the polls last November? 1t is begin
ming to look that way.
"Of all the lame excuses ever sub
mitted to disguised world, that of
the American commission to the effect
that there is no precedent in interna-
tional law for the trial and conviction
of the head of state is the most
spineless. If a precedent is needed,
now is the time to establish it, or the
fate melted out to Napoleon should
suggest one.
did Wilhelm look for precedent
when he overran Belgium? Did he find
excuse in international law when he
crucified Canadian soldiers, stockaded
and outraged Belgian and French wo-
men. manned and disemboweled little
children, defiled and destroyed
churches. cut the threats of American
prisoners, sank unarmed ships without
warning made of Belgium and north
ern France a barren waste, and sent

his agents by the thousands into neu-
trail states to carry on his internal
propaganda, which continues to this
day! Was there any precedent to be
found IN history for this campaign of
frightfulness, other than that sup
piled by Atilla the Hun? Napoleon
was clean fighter, at least, and they
banished him. is Wilhelm to be
permitted to sojourn undisturbed in
princely ease at Amerongen Castle,
there to mature his plans for a sec
ond trial for world conquest? If so,
MIR. Wilson should be credited with a
remarkable victory as counsel for the
defense OF this international criminal,
to judge from reports.
The patience which the president
Of the United States has exhibited to-
ward Germany, the Germans and the
kaiser and his court, is of a quality
more vicious than vlrtuous. So far as
is known the records fail to show a
single instance of the capital punish
ment OF an enemy spy in this country,
yet we have been infested with them.
Nominal confinement in comfortable
hotels at government expense, or in
more fragrant cases, segregation in
commodious stockades, fed to reple-
ton. and provided with pleasant recre-
ations, have spelled the hard lot of
these villainous agents. A few months
before we got into the war at least one
Democratic campaign manager was
hob-nobbing with those agents in
German beer-halls, and they kept us
out OF war" cutlery was planted in
those German stems. And then we
had the note-writing contests between
the president and the kaiser, with the
Democratic press deciding the presi-
dent the winner in each diplomatic
victory" Finally, when the American
public would brook no further insult,
we went to war and then delayed six
months getting in.
I'VE have no quarrel with the
German people,, said Mr.. Wilson. Ask
the soldiers of the American Expedi-
tionary Forces if that is true. Every
soldier who fought against the kaiser's
hosts and who witnessed his diabol-
ical war methods demands his punish
ment. and SO does every red-blooded
American who contributed to the de-
feat which apparently Mr.. Wilson
seeks to minimize. If Mr.. Wilson's
Intervention saves the hide of Butcher
Bill, there is but one reply to make to
his unauthorized assertion on behalf
of the American people, namely, He
had no quarrel with the German
kaiser.

WATER CONSUMERS
HAVE SUPPLY CUT
Farmers Under Boise Valley Project
Receiving Only So Inch Per Acre

Water users under the Boise Valley
project have had their supply of irri-
CATION water reduced from the usual
farmers of the lower sections on the
Snake river where the soil is sandy
and water requirements are high are
handicapped somewhat by the diminu-
alton in the supply allotted to them it
is said.
J. B. Bond, project manager, speak
ing of the action on the part of the
reclamation service, said Saturday
that the step was necessary at the
present time because of the enormous
demand on the part of every user
caused by the unusually dry weather
which has prevailed during the last
three weeks. Practically very farmer
on the project is using every inch of
water that he can get. Canals under
the project are running at full capac-
ity and the several small breaks have
recently occurred because they were
actually running over full.
Canal Breaks Feared
IN order to avoid a possible large
break which would completely shut
OFT water tor some time and perhaps
imperil the crops under that portion
of the system, it was thought advisa-
BILE to decrease the amount that the
canals were carrying.
No serious breaks have yet occurred
though several bridge supports on the
Deer Flat low line canal were washed
out and the bridges saved with diff
Guilty.
According to Mr.. Bond the present
allotment will continue only 10 days
until the crisis is past when the usual
inch per acre will be provided.
The action was by no means taken
because of shortage in either Deer
Flat or Arrow Rock reservoirs. Deer
Flat Friday showed a considerable in
cease over the. amount stored there
this time last year, Arrow Rock only
a little less than behind that years
record. Both storage places are ex-
pected by the end of the next week to
show considerable increases over the
amount of water stored in them at
that time year ago.

PARIS. Feb. 1S-Japan has not yet
agreed to the plan for making her Il
mandatory for :hc Caroline and Mar
shall Islands. While the other pow
cTs have practically agreed to the
mandatory principle and are willing
to accept direction of the various Ger
man colonies, Japan desires more
complete definition OF the plan under
which tho two groups OF Pacific islands
will be intrustcd 10 her. and a moro

In discussing this question to-day

mcntS in the Pacific and feel that MS u

activity they should be permitted to
extend their culture and civilization to
tho two groups OF islands, which are

If the society Of nations desires
standardization and uniiication Of de-
velopmcnt OF the captured German
colonies which would prevent Japan
from giving a distinctly Japanese char
acter to the Marshall and Caroline

able to Japan. as it would hurt the

OF obstacles, which seemed big. and

And the Thoughts of the peoples
have been drawn together. There has
not only very great. but very for
midable. a force which can be rapidly
mooihHed. force which is very offcc-
tive when mobilized; namely, the moral
force of the world. One advantage in
seeing one another and talking with
one another Is to find that, after all,
we all think the same way. We may
TRY to put the result OF the thing into
different forms, but we start with the
same principles.
Il have often been thought Of as a
man more interested in principles than
in practice, whereas, as matter or
fact, l can say that in one sense prin-
ciples have never interested me, be-
cause principles prove themselves
when stated.
DIFFICULT THING TO PUT
PRINCIPLES INTO PRACTICE
They do not need any debate. The
thing that Is difficult and Interesting,
IN how TO put them into practice.
Large discourse is not possible on the
principles, but large discourse is nee
cssary on the matter of realizing them.
So that. after all, principles until
translated into practice are very thin
and abstract, and. l may add, uninter-
esting things 1t is not interesting
to have PARKWAY visions, but II is in
tercsting to have nearby visions Of
what IL is possible 10 accomplish: and
in meeting such as you are project
ing, perhaps we can record the sue
cess that we shnAl have then achieved
OF putting grcnt principle into pcac-
tice and demonstrated that it can be
put into practice, though nearly. let
us say. five years ago, II was consid-
cred an Impractical dream.

ness in the plan that you may form
after my return. and thank you very
