deputies that the treaty would not be
revised at the Spa conference, though

certain alterations might be made
The French have come around to
the British and Italian view Of the
question Of PREPARATIONS and all now
agree that the sum to be exacted from
Germany must be fixed at the earliest
possible moment. The general belief
Is that 200,00O.0OO,0OO marks will be
decided upon as the approximate fig
ure Germany can pay. That Is tho fig
ure the Americans and British agreed
upon year ago, when the French de-
manded more than twice as much.
The Republican members Of the SEN
ate committee on foreign relations
have prepared new peace resolution
In lieu Of the one passed by the house.
Its principal features are:
]. 1t fatty repeats the joint resolu-
ton passed by congress declaring war
on Germany, and then adopts the Ian
guage of the house resolution declar-
Ing the war ended.
2. 1t requests the president to open
negotiations with Germany for the
purpose Of restoring friendly rela-
lions and commercial intercourse al
though as matter Of fact trade has
already been resumed.
3. II protects the claim Of American
nationals against Germany for damage
suffered during the war; by holding up
all the money accumulated by the
alien property custodian or other
agents Of the government until such
claims have been adjusted.
4. It retains for the United States
all property or rights obtained under
the terms Of the armistice and the
treaty Of Versailles until a satisfac-
tory settlement Is made between the
United States and Germany.
o. 1t repeats all wartime legislation,
In the language of the house resolu-
ton.
The advocates of this method of
ending the war found encouragement
In a statement from P. B. Noyes,
American member Of the Rhlneland
high commission, In the course Of
which he said:
"'rhe big thing for the Americans
with the interests of the world at
heart is to ratify the treaty 1t doesn't

DEATH TUESDAY OF
MRS. JOHN VOORHEES,

The community was shocked Tues
day morning when they learned that
at o'clock Mrs. John Voorhees, had
passed away. Mrs. Voorhees, was a
victim of influenza. but 1t was hoped
she would recover. Pneumonia set in
and no power on earth could save
her. Helen Edith Dunkin was born
in Putnam county, Missouri, Jan. 81,
1885. She came to Idaho with her
parents in 1904. In 1905 she was
united in marriage to John Voorhees,,
and to this union was born seven
children, six living. Her father, one
sister, one brother, beside the hus-
band and children already mentioned
and host of friends to mourn her
going. She was a mother and help-
meet in every sense that term inn
plies. The sympathy of the entire
community is extended to the be-
reaved.
Funeral services took place from the
M. e. church Wednesday afternoon
at 2.30, Rev. c. A. Quinn conducting
lC. The remains were buried in the
local cemetery.

Aown yesterday attending the hearing
On the application of the Meridian
Independent Telephone company for
IN increase in it's rates. Although
2here was nothing said officially it is

Mr.. Freehafer is state chairman in
the Near East Relief campaign now
Aon in Idaho. Ada county is asked to
give $4,000 to this cause. He made
Che following statement and appeal
which we are glad to publish:
The Near East Relief is organized
and incorporated under an act of con-
gress and is doing the work in Ar
menia ad other Near East countries
that is ordinarily done by the Red
Gross, in fact the Red Cross has
eurned over that field entirely to the
Near East Relief committee.
In all 100000 people, including
10000 orphans, must be fed by
charity until next harvest or they
must starve. America is their only
hope. Can any one really enjoy three
meals day at the family table in
prosperous Idaho If he has failed to
heed the cry of hunger of these or
phans Rive dollars per month for the
next four months will keep one oi
these children alive until crop car
be raised in their country. Can any
one afford to do less than this?
