The terms Of the Versailles treaty include the
bringing to justice of a long list of German
officials. The public is not aware that the con-
ditions have been complied with in any respect.
In any event the criminals are still at large and
actively engaged in government and military
pursuits, or living in luxury upon their blood
stained plunder.

FRANCES NEW COINAGE

France has hit upon plan to stop the ex-
portation Of her copper and nickel coinage, by
he issue Of one hundred million dollars worth
Of new subsidiary coinage made from an alloy
of nickel and aluminium.
During the war France found that her gold
and silver coinage was disappearing from cir
salation; and since the war, that her copper
and nickel coins, Which .orgi94lH had assalue.
much less than that designated by their denori-
nations, have had their intriRsic value so en-
haneed by the demand for the metal itself that
the expectation of the coins removed from cir
ealation the currency necessary for the bust
ness of the country, and forced the adoption of
= coinage scheme that would make the actual
value of the coins less than their market vaue
for the metal they contain ss.
France now issues her new coins 10 remedv
me currency depression caused by the neces-
dty OF issuing paper notes, in the absence of
the former gold, silver, nickel and copper that
were formerly the basis Of her circulating
medium. The intrinsic value Of the new coins.
as bullion, makes further export Improbable.
When the revision of the French coinage
system took place, forty yearz ago, the govern
nent insisted that the metal in the token coin
age should be near it's Approximate value. and
the 1act that it was nearer this value than the
coinage OF other countries Of the international
onlon led to the stripping Of France of her
circulating medium, with profit to the specula.
tors, VINO eshipped the coins out of the country
as bullion, thus realizing profit Of about 4o
per cent.

L. is going to cost the people OF
Simla and vicinity who are adverse
to the proposed division of Ebert
County some money. o. NJ. King
has list of the subscriptions made
for this purpose and all who are
willing to help can call at his office
and sign the list.-Simla Sun.
- -
The above notice, may be taken In
two senses upon Teading,-either
for or against the proposed County
division of Ebert County.
In the first sense, the idea is con
ceived that those who are against
the scheme will loose money If they
stay in the old county's Jurisdiction.
IN the second sense the idea can
be obtained that Mr.. King, himself,
is adverse 10 the proposed division
scheme, and is putting in his Lest
efforts, as is many other good citizens
getting up a subscription to carry
the question to court.
Its a wise move on the part Of
everyone, whether they live in this
county or in some other county OF
the state, to investigate the mat
ter and get the pros and csns, OF 1t
thoroughly.
AS the above notice, is concerned,
which should be taken in the right
light of justice towards Ebert
County. 1t ia likely that there are
many similar notices, which are just
as catchy, or even more so-conyey-
ing to the readers one thing but
really meaning the other side OF the
question.
Az a matter of fact use your own
judgement of the situation, and do
not let some few molly coddle think
ers, change your mind, from what
your Judgement says Is right to you.
LIS a foregone coclusion, that there
can come no good from county di-
visin, either for those who are in IA
vor of the county split-up, If the di-
those OF the old county, If the di-
vision scheme is carried at the cleo
| ton.

several little faults have arisen since

ERADICATION OF PRAIRIE DOGS.

Mr.. Jack Wood OF the Norton
community has found 1t very profit
able to eradicate the prairie dogs on
the poisoning of nearly 10000 acras
Of prairie dog infested land to w. G.
Faris and John Aubrey of Larimer
County, and these men have done an
exceptionally good job of poisoning
The price paid for this work was In
the neighborhood OF $4,000. How
ever. the results obtained from the
eradication of this pest will practie-
ally pay for itself this season.
In prairie dog towns where grass
never had the opportunity TO grow
1t is doing fine and grazing good
Aside from this Mr.. Wood says that
he will have at least seventy-fiVe
tons more of hay than he has had
heretofore as a result of this poison
ing. being able to cut this amount
in valleys which teh dogs formerly
inhabited.
The growth OF hay and better gra-
ling are not the only savings gained
according to Mr.. Wood. He says
that he will realize a larger lamb
crop as he intends filling the praf-
RE dog dugouts in the vicinity Of
the lambfng quarters. From eco
to 900 little lambs are lost annually
by falling into the larger holes, and
being unable to get out. starve to
death.
Many people contend that prairie
dogs cannot be eradicated I'm the
summer time, however, these men
started in the early summer and got
practically every dog. Their meth
cd used was to cover the ground
thoroughly the first time over scat
tering an abundance Of poisoned oats
A few weeks later the ground was
gone over second time. Aside
from this gun was occasionally
used and finally carbon bisulphide
was used on few that could not be
killed otherwise.
