was divided. This was bad luck for
the Armenians, since their sponsors
the concert Of Europe, found it i'm
possible to act together. By various
efforts at interference they reused
Abdul Hands temper and defiance,
and that irritated monarch, like a bad
tempered child with too much power,
decided to kill off the harmless sub
jects in whom other European powers
had so i~nconvenient an interest. An
outbreak of CHASTITY massacre was che
result, the first of a series which we
saw eliminated in 1915.
Now that the theory that the Bal
ance of Power is bankrupt, we hope
for better protection Of the Armenian
and other small under the or
ganization of the League of Nations.
Geographically, Armenia has many
advantages for future development.
In ancient days 1t consisted of SOC, 600
square miles Of fertile table land,
| stretching from the Black Sea and the
Caucasus Mountains to Persia and
| Syria. The land rises from the sea
until 1t reaches a level of about
5000 feet, shooting up in Mount Ara
rat to a s~now-capped peak about
1000 feet higher than Mount Blanc.
The land is fertile, rugged, pictur-
esque, and rich in rivers, of which
the Euphrates, Tigris, Pison and
Araxes are the chief. These empty
their waters into the Caspian and
Black Sea and the Gulf of Persia.
II is good grazing land and fine
for agriculture, producing melons
grapes. wheat, maize, barley, oats,
cotton, rice, tobacco and sugar, while
rich deposits of coal, silver, iron and
other minerals lie ~undeveloped be-
meath the surface when the season
is at its height, such is the produc-
tive power Of the soil that two melons
are said to be a camel's load.
This Is the home from which the
Armenians have been driven, and tc
which they must be restored.
To keep them alive in the meantime
and to transport them home and helI
them to start life afresh will cost
a large amount of money. America
does not expect to pay it all, but she
does expect to raise, by voluntary
subscription, the sum of $50, 000, 900
towards that great end-allowing al
even distribution, the sum of $7.5(
per person-not a great deal for us
to give or them to receive, but it will,
make all the difference between life
and death to these sorely stricken
people in the immediate future.

LANE INTERPRETERS
R0OSEyELT'S FAME
Says His Memory VIII Live Forever
In the Hearts of Boys of Land

A tribute to Theodore Roosevelt by
Secretary Lane vas adopted by the
house pensions committee Tuesday
as a part of its favorable report on
a bill which already has passed the
senate, granting an annual pension
of $4,000 to Mrs Roosevelt. Secre-
tary Lane wrote the committee that
congress had set precedents by
granting pensions to the widows of
Presidents Polk, Tyler, Lincoln,
Grant, Garfield and Mckinley.
The committee unanimously voting
a favorable report, found that the
secretary's letter constituted zone of
the most beautiful, fair and Just trib-
utes" to Mr.. Roosevelt's life and
character. II follows:
The impress hat Theodore
R%oosevelt's personality has made
upon the world does not need
emphasis. Whatever his fame as
a statesman, 1t can never outrun
his fame as a man. However
widely men may differ from him
in matter of national policy, this
thing men in their hearts would
all wish, that their sons might
have within them the spirit, the

SPORTING LIFE IN IDAHO

1t is unnecessary to comment on the
article headed Sporting Life in
Idaho" reprinted from the Boise
Statesman. Each reader may supply
his own comment and draw his own
inference. A government of the peo-
pie and by the people is not always
one for the people. The plain in
ference of the article is an indictment
against the direct primary law and
the intelligence of the people Of Bon
ner County.

DISMISS CASE AGAINST MOODY
Charged With Collecting from State
and Government for Trim Exnense

Boise, Idaho, September 27-The
charge against G. S. Moody. formerly
adJutant general of Idaho, of making
a false certificate to a voucher for
travelling expenses, amounting to
S173,63, was dismissed in the district
court this morning. The defendant
was discharged by Judge Reddoch, who
sustained the defendants motion to
quash and set aside the information,
and ordered that the bond of Mr..
Moody be exonerated. Judge Reddoch
announced that he had looked into the
authorities submitted to him and felt
that the defendant could not be held
under the information and at once
ordered his dismissal.
The arrest of the former adjutant
general was the result of an extended
legislative investigation during the
last session, of which Moody was a
member. The report filed charged
Moody with charging up to the state
certain expenses on trip to Washing
ton, D. c., when he was making the
trip on behalf of the government and
at government expense. When the
investigation started Moody refunded
the amount in question to the state.

Mathiesens Return Friday from Nine
Weeks Trip To Coast Points

Mr.. and Mrs. Otto F. Mathiesen and
children returned on Friday evening
from an auto trip to coast points after
an absence of over nine weeks during
which time they travelled over $500
miles and visited with friends at Hepp-
ner, Greg, Ellensburg, Wash, Seattle,
and Tacoma, Wash, Portland, Greg,
and San Francisco and Los Angeles,
Cali
At Woodland. Cali, they visited with
Mrs. Mathiesen's grandmother. Mr..
and Mrs. Mathiesen planned to con-
tinue their trip to their former homes
in the east but gave this up this year
on account of cold weather. They
state that they enjoyed every minute
of their vacation and saw some coun-
try that looked better than Boundary
county and a lot of country that did
not look as good while in no district
did they find as promising a future
as has Boundary county.
Mr.. Mathiesen has several towns in
view where he may locate but has
made no definite decision. He left
last night for Pocatello, Idaho, where
he will meet with some banking men
with the idea of organizing a new
bank in the southern part of the state
Mrs. Mathiesen and children will re-
main here until Mr.. Mathiesen de-
termines upon new location.

MANY DONATE
LIBERAL SUMS
DRIVE FOR SALVATION ARMY NOW
PROMISES TO BE SUCCESSFUL
IN BOUNDARY COUNTY
BONNERSFERRY GIVES OVER 5000
Feel Sure That the County Quota of
$1,000 win Be Raised

Il. b. Stookey, the chairman for this
county OF the Salvation Army drive
Whlch started last week, stated yester-
day that he was sure Boundary county
would go over the top this week. The
county quota is $1,000.
On Saturday committee composed
OF e. b. Stookey, o. c. Wilson and ID.
M. Palmer visited the business houses
OF Bonners Ferry and Miss Faye Kent
and Veona Johnston solicited from the
employees of the Bonners Ferry Lum-
Der company. The two committees
report over $500 subscribed. Other
committees have been appointed to
solicit in the nearby camps and dis
trict chairman have been appointed
in all sections of the county. If these
committees are as successful as the
two on Saturday there will be no ques-
ton of raising the quota.
The soliciting committees state that
their appeals for aid for the Salvation
Army have met with ready response
and that in only one instance were
they refused a subscription The
slogan of all the committees and the
district chairman will be, "a days
pay" from every laborer. If every
days pay twice the amount asked for
would be raised. The cause is a
worthy one and all the returned sol
diers and service men are joining in
boosting for the Salvation Army on
account of the good work done by the
organization both in this country at
the cantonments and in France on
the front.
Reports from all parts of the U. S.
have it that the drive will be a sue
cess. In no community have the
drives been organized on as syste-
matte a basis as were the various
drives of war-times and it is probably
on this account that the funds are not
coming in as fast as could be expected
Reports from Bonner county are that
great deal more than the Bonner
county quota has been subscribed.
Mr.. Stookey is expecting to receive
reports any day now from the various
districts of the county and hopes tc
finish the drive this week.
