GERMANY SLIPPING AWAY,
THINKS PQINCARE.

The refusal Of the American state
department to hold out any encourage
ment to Germany until the latter had
squared accounts with the allies met
hearty welcome in France. The
French are beginning to feel that Ger
many is wriggling gradually out OF the
grip in which the allies held her at
the time she sued for peace. Thus for
mer President Poincare says in the
Matin, Paris:
Germany continues to give. us
proofs of good faith and to thank US
for our untiring long suffering. We
granted her tolerance and delay Tor
her disarmament. Our kindness has
only had the effect Of encouraging ne ner
in equivocation and evasions. Ihe
note addressed to the Reich on the
29th Of January by the interall1ed

Blaine County Man
Follows His Stolen
Saddle Into Canada

Special to The Tribune.
Harlem, April 21.-When Gilbert
Haugo, farmer living in the Silver
Bow district, found his saddle missing
Monday he did not take time to report
the theft to the sheriff's office. but
Immediately set out on the trail of the
suspect himself. The trail led him
20 miles across the Canadian border
and there he located the alleged thief
and the saddle also. The party whom
he was trailing was Charles Rusk. a
17-year-old lad living in the same COM
munity. Not only did he bring the
saddle back with him. but he brought
Rusk along, too, and took him right
to Chinook and presented him to the
sheriff The saddle was valued at
S125. =
When Haugo first suggested to Rusk
that he come along with him he re-
fused to go, thinking that he was
safe as he had crossed the border and
was out of the country. but when
Haugo advised him of his intentions
of notifying the mounted police Rusk
came to the conclusion that he would
rather trust his case to the tender
mereies of a court in the United States
than to the Canadian system of deal
ing out justice. Rusk is now being
held in the county jail.
Rusk was given a hearing Tuesday
morning before Justice Griffin and
bound over to the district court.

treme Right and the Communists de-
clared themselves ready to organize
and carry on the work of reparation.
Since the beginning of this year a
great change has taken place in nearly
all German circles. The government
of the Reich has taken the initiative in
the very face of the Allies. Of prop
aganda on the origins and RESPONSE
bilities Of the war and great many
Germans have begun to say, some Of
them perhaps even to think, that their
country is innocent, that it was oblig-
ed to declare war, that it was forced
to ruin our provinces. and that the re-
sponsibilities ought at least to Be shar-
ed by all the belligerent powers that
Germany owes nothing to anybody.
"'But how about the solemn knowi-
edge of guilt which was inserted in
the Versailles treaty and that Ger
many signed" A thing Of the past,

ed by violence. We are not guilty, and
we have never been guilty. There only

German forests was 14,223,o17 hec-

nosed by the peace treaty have only
reduced the extent Of these wonderful
forests by 1,S14,OOO hectares. The
annual feelings have remained consld-
erably below what would be possible,
and large reserves OF old trees nave
accumulated everywhere. We must re-
member too, that during the war Ger

by the roadside and mutilated our
