PARIS.-Almost immediate recog-
milton of the soviet government by
the allies is mentioned by diplo-
mats here as the most likely step
next to be taken by the supreme
council iu order TO untangle the
knot which threatens the peace of
Europe. The allied premiers at Spa
are in the gravest position they have
found themselves in since the sign
ing of the armistice.
Diplomats and statesmen, among
them ex-Premier Bartou, welcome
the expected decision, as the pres.
,ents situation between the allies and
Germany is considered pregnant
with possibility as grave as the Sara
jevo incident, which caused the late
war.
'The shadow of war is once more
lowering over Europe" one promi-
nent diplomat said to me Wednes-
day. 1T is useless to shut our eyes
to the obvious fact that the soviet
army now within reach of Warsaw
cannot be called red army made
up of unframed and undisciplined
men,"

DISMISS SUFFRAGE INJUNCTION
(By Universal Service)

Observation-Disclosures Bailey ir
the district supreme court Tuesday
dismissed injunction proceedings
brought by Charles F. Fairchilds OF
New York, president of the Ameri-
can Constitutional league.
The proceedings sought to prevent
Secretary of State Colby from pro-
claiming ratification of the suffrage
amendment and Attorney General
Palmer from enforcing it.
Justice Bailey ir> announcing his
decision, declared that he had no
authority to inquire into the action
of the state legislatures in ratify-
ing the amendment. He pointed out
that in any case the action was pre-
mature, as ratification of the amend
ment is not yet complete. Previous
to the ruling of the Court Secretary
Colby and Attorney General Palmer
filed a motion to dismiss the injunc-
tion proceedings. Edward B. Wheel
er of New York, representing Mr.
Fairchilds, announced his intention
of taking an appeal from the district
court decision.
Mr.. Wheeler remarked that the
amendment may affect the result of
the presidential election and urged
that it should have the most care
full consideration.
Suffragists were jubilant at the
defeat of the injunction proceedings
Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the
National Woman's party, said:
"The refusal of the court to grant
restraining order preventing the
issuance of proclamation ratify-
ing the, suffrage amendment leaves
no reasonable ground for doubt that
favorable action will definitely con-
clude the struggle for ratification.
Tennessee possesses the clear oppor-
tunity Of being the thirty-sixth state.
Today's decision should remove any
hesitancy from the minds Of Ten
nessee legislators, since to the opin-
ion OF Attorney General Palmer, it
adds the opinion of the court"
Suffragists are preparing a con-
certed drive on Tennessee, the next
state to vote on the suffrage amend
ment.
Governor Cox, Democratic presi-
dental nominee, will receive depu-
tation of the National woman's par
ty, led by Miss Paul on Friday at
ternoon, July 16, at his office in
Columbus, Ohio.
The delegation will include prac-
tically all officers of the woman's
party from eastern and middle west
ern states, who will urge Governor
Cox to use his influence with legis-
lators of Tennessee and North Caro-
lima.

An Editors Struggle

Will R. Holmes formerly publishes
the Post at Paris. Idaho, and he die
not own it all. He merely owned
tiny part of it, just about enough
to give him a look-in. He worked
hard, was a good man, had a good
influence wherever he moved OF
reached, and working on salary
he could not get ahead much. When
he made money in the business il
went to the owners, and when he did
not, he had to wait for his salary
at times.
Holmes meditated and said, "Veri-
ly there is nothing to it. will write
to Trego and ask him about several
things" and he did. Forthwith
there came back a long letter from
Blackfoot, and Holmes worked on,
and negotiated to learn the price at
which the Post could be purchased,
the terms and all about it, After
a year or SO he was puzzled and
did not know whether to wade in
or stay out and keep his feet dry so
to speak. Again he wrote Trego,
asking him what to. do with such a
proposition when there was no mon
ey to speak of in the family purse.
Again there came back letter from
the Blackfoot man, in which he adj
vised, getting right into the water
while it was fine. He outlined a
way to create a sure revenue for
the paper, and in order to handle
greater amount of work involved
in the plan, he advised buying some
more equipment for the office, buy
ing it on time and paying for it
on the monthly plan. Then in order
to have someone to operate the new
equipment he advised hiring more
help and relying on the new business
to be gotten by means of the new

Napoleon and Josephine of the
house of Bonaparte had no heir to

take try at turning it into a sue
cess, and we are about to give you

NATlVESAMS0N WASFElA|IRE;DB A|IR BY
 HIS FELLOWS

The Eskimo story tellers have leg end resembling that of the biblical Samson, whose feats of strength were equal to those of the bible hero, and who was betrayed by a woman. The Eskimo strong man lived in the North long ago. The natives believa the story implicitly and point as evidence of it's authenticity to the ruins o1 ms < ieloo which are near KotZebue sound.
 This strong man whose name was Elugunuk, was very large and the fingers of his hands and his toes were webbed like those of duck. He was 8 great hunter and fisherman and pre- formed many wonderful feats. He could swim out in the sea and kill seals. and his strength was so great he could kill bears as easily as the modern small boy can kill rabbit. Unaided it is said he chased down and caught a whale He had a brother who was also a very strong man, but he did not possess the web feet of the Eskimo Samson, and lived far inland from the sea near the headwaters of the Kobuk.
 The strong man had many wives. His igloo was filled with them and although he was good natured and peaceful his wives feared him greatly >All the people also feared him. One night while he slept they bound him with thongs from the skin of a walrus and carried him to the top of a cliff and flung him into the sea. He did not resist, but when he struck the water burst his thongs like marsh grass and swan back to the village
 The people were very much afraid but he told them not to fear him that all he desired was to live in peace. But this feat scared them worse than ever and it was not long after this until his wives bound him and taking a stone knife attempted to cut off his hands The pain of the first gash awoke him and breaking his bonds he talked kindly to them telling them not to fear him. But his wives and the people with whom he lived con tinued to harass him until his disposi tiOn grew mOrOse and when he found comedy woman whom he liked he would kill her husband and carry her off to his igloo.
 This exasperated the people and they again determined to kill him They attacked him in force, in many

cOmiaks. He was appraised by his god of their coming and taking off his parka he smeared his body with sal mon roe, having first collected pile As the expedition approached he went down to the beach and called to his enimies, saying:
 See the sores on my body. I am ii; and cannot resist you. am at your mercy"
 And all the people looked with as, tcnishment at his fostering body. They laid down their bows and spears and drew nearer to get a better view. And then when they were close enough and before they realized their danger he hurled the sharp stones at them with such force that the boats were pierced and sunk and all the invaders drowned
 The narrative of his adventures cover many snows. At one time he was beset by thousands of his enimies and defeated them with the bone of whale, which he used as a battle axe. He had frequent encounters with those who sought his life and was finally killed by the treachery of one of his wives, whom he had forced to his igloo from a neighboring tribe.
 The woman bound him with her hair, which she had allowed to grow very long and thick. He was unable to get loose and the woman poured boiling whale oil into his eyes and ears until he died
