employ its idle workmen, is ready to
make the best possible bargain both
with Germany and with Russia.
France, which by comparison is self
supporting and which sees itself fur
tber impoverished by Russian re-
pudiation of debts and threatened by
an enemy that it believes to be unre-
pentaBt and revengeful, is not yet
ready to forget and forgive. Those
who praise the attitude of Great
Britain and condemn the attitude OF
France should remember that it is
not moral difference that divides
them. Each country is acting in ac-
cord with what it thinks that its inn
mediate national interests demand.
We must not forget that France
was the greatest sufferer by the war.
1t lost fifth of its young manhood.
1t had to take on burden of indebt-
edness amounting to seven eighths Of
it's entire wealth as estimated at the
beginning of the war. Seven of its
richest departments were deliberate
ly ravaged by an enemy who provok-
ed the war and violated his own
agreements in order to make his in
vasion more disastrous. The French
have had to find some forty billion
francs to restore that area, and they
have not yet received anything from
Germany to apply to reparations, al
though the Germans are by treaty
bound to help repair the destruction
that they caused.
Germany was not devastated. It's
fields are unscarred, its factories un-
injured. The French people are pay
ing taxes at the rate of $45. .62 annual
ly for every person in the country.
The Germans are paying only $13.S8
per capita, yet are loud in declaring
that they cannot raise the reqired
payment for reparation.
The French army, though com
paratively large, is smaller by 10000
than it was in 1914. France spends
on its army less than the United
States and less. than one half as much
as Great Britain spends. The French
maintain their army not from love of
militarism but because they do not
trust their late enemies, and because
they believe that, if France were un-
armed, the Germans would aband on
every pretense OF complying with the
Tready of Versailles.
Such is the defense of France that
M. Stephen Lauzanne makes In re-
cent magazine article. Critics who
have not suffered as the French have
suffered, and who live too far away
to comprehend the state of mind that
such an experience creates, will con-
tinue to repeat that France is pursu-
ing a mistaken and dangerous policy.
They may be right; nevertheless, it is
an extraordinarily human policy. IT.
is doubtful whether any other coun-
try, placed in the same position,
would display any more altruisn.
Certainly some would act more sell
fishly and harshly.

P. X. Prices Kavalry!

10
Col. j. Ed Belch was famous JEFF
ferson City lawyer in his day. The
following story of one of his cases is
related by Judge L. B. Woodside, Of
Salem:
General Sterling Price, in his raid
through Missouri in September. 1864.
captured Pilot Knob. The Pilot Knob
Iron Company had great many fine
mules which were branded 'sP. K.n
Price confiscated these. A few weeks
later, when the Confederate troops
got near Jefferson City, two of the
| mules became so lame that they could
| not travel. The Confederates left
them with an old farmer by the name
| of Brown, and took two fresh mules
from him in their place.. Brown
nursed them to strength and by
spring he had Fl ne span of 16-hand
mules, able to do an immense amount
of farm work. One of his jealous
neighbors reported to the Pilot Knob
| Company the whereabouts of the
mules and they sent an agent to look
for them, who instituted a replevin
suit in justica's court. Farmer
Brown did not like the idea of giving
the mules up and employed Belch to
defend the case. The agent of the
company identified the mules in
general way, but particularly by the
brand "P. K.p which was on the mules.
He said this was the Pilot Knob Iron
Company's brand and he was positive
that they were the plaintiffs mules
which were taken by Price the year
before. The defendent could only
state the manner and time of getting
the mules and their condition when
he got them. Belch made short but
convincing argument:
"Gentlemen Of the Jury,n he began.
"here is this hlreling of big corpora
tion running around over the coun-
try hunting up mules left by Prices
army. He has jumped old man Brown
and is trying to take away his only
means Of making crop this summer
When Brown got these mules they
were broken down. lame and could do
nothing but eat. Now he has nursed
them, fed and curried them and just
got them in shape to work, and this
fellow wants to take them away from
him. And on what kind of evidence?
He can't identify the mules. Henev-
or worked them, never fed them, but
just identifies them by the brand 'P.
K" He says this stands for Pilot
Knob. He must think we are suckers
In Cole county. p. K! Pilot Knob!
Whoever heard Of anybody spelling
Knob with exp" Mob spells Knob
and have got it right here in the
dictionary. I will tell you, gentle
men, what P. K. stands for. It stands
for Prices Cavalry, and all the evi
dence IN this case shows it plainly. In
all of my experience I have never
seen clearer case of corroboration.
Brown got his mules from Prices
Army. They got his mules. Prices
Army was all cavalry. sP. K.n stands
for Prices Cavalry.
The jury promptly returned a YER
| dict for the defendant and the agent
was SO much disgusted with Cole
county justice that he did not make
AN appeal.

MANY GROUPS HELP
TUBERCULOSIS SEAL
CAMPAIGN IN STATE:
Much Interest Shown in Annual
Drive for Funds to Stamp

business and professional men, Ro-

clubs, school superintendent, teachers
and school children ali taking an active
personal interest in the tuberculosis
work Of the state the annual Christ
mas seal sale. which provides funds for
the work will be started throughout
Montana this week.
'tFrom the personnel of the Com
mittees in charge of the seal sale. n
from the interest that is being taken
in it by people in all walks of life it is
evident that the appeal. which is made
through the seal sale for the work
which betters the health of Montana's
men and women, Of her ex-seTvice men
and of her mothers and children will
not go ~unheeded," said Mrs. Sara +.
Morse, secretary of the tuberculosis
association. who is directing the sale
Of the Christmas seals. The work Of
the Tuberculosis ASSOCIATION. which
deals primarily with the prevention
and cure Of tuberculosis will be car
ried into all parts of the state in Il
more extensive way than ever before
has been possible.
1.-THE association has employed a
nurse for three years in Cascade coun-
is. and her services were so much APP
preciated that on the first of last Aug
ust the county took over the work.
The need Of a second nurse has been
felt ia the county. and the seal sale
in Cascade county will therefore be
used TO employ another one. The Civil
tan club. an organization of active
young business men, has taken charge
of the sale this year. and under their
leadership there can be 20 doubt Of the
successful outcome Of the sale.
The extent of the work Of the Tu-
~berculosjs association depends upon the
amount raised through the sale of the
seals, for this is the only means Of
financing its work that the ~associa-
ton has. 1t is the policy Of the asso-
station to return two-thirds of the
amount raised in a county 10 that
county in some form of health service,
The other third is spent in anti-tuber-
cuIosis work in communities where the
need is greatest md where no other
funds are available for health work.
