The death of Allen P. Haynes, in

The death of Allen P. Haynes, In
recall to a number of Inland Empire
people, especially in Spokane, the
meteoric career of Haynes in Spo-
kane, where he started the Inland
Herald some IA years ago. The Her
aid failed within few months, after
many thousands Of dollars had been
expended, politicians and a few bust
ness men, who wanted to see another
big daily in the Inland Empire, fall
ing for the promoters story that he
would soon have a great and paying
institution, Among the heavy losers
was Barney F. O'Neil, then of Wal
lace, and about that time a candidate
for the republican nomination for gov
ernor Of Idaho. The paper was al
heavy loser from the start and the
loss to stockholders run up into the
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Haynes, who had wonderful per-
sonality, went to Canada after the
failure, and was reported to have
made and lost a fortune within a few
years. His death just after he had
been placed under arrest for securing
money under false pretences, brought
to close a tempestuous and more or
less romantic career, where great
ability was, for the most part, mis-
used.

Plans for the electrificatlon Oh
Palestine by raising the level OF the
Sea of Galilee and Harvesting the MS
toric River Jordan, involving an in
itiaI expenditure of $10,000,000, are
described in Palestine-Its CONNER
cial Resources With Particular Ref
erence to American Trade" by Addi-
son E. Southland, American consul at
Jerusalem, just published by the de-
partment of commerce. The same
project calls for the canalization OF
the Jordan valley from the Sea OF
Galilee to the Dead Sea, where under
irrigation, it is expected that copious
crops of dates, rice, sugar cane, flax,
and cotton can be produced. Pro-
vision for 1000 miles of motor high
ways, commercialization of the Bag
dad-Cairo air route, traversing Syria,
and agricultural credit banks are
among the other innovations con-
templated in the modernization of
the Holy Land, as related by Mr.
Southland.

The action of congress in refusing
an appropriation for free seeds will
be a great blow to the entire country,
and especially to the congressman
who have taken such great pleasure
in sending out dainty packages OF
seeds to their constituents. Many a
town gardener reduced the expense of
the planting season by some ten or
fifteen cents each year because of the
free seeds. Of course, they didn't al
ways grow, but just the same the gar
dener was getting something for moth
ing, and his congressman had dis
played a personal interest IN his
welfare by sending him the seeds.
Every man who has garden ten
feet square has a right to feel that
his personal liberty has been grew
ously curtailed.

CASUALTY PERCENTAGE
HEAVILY AGAINST THE
ALLIES IN WORLD WAR

Washington, May 21.-Army stat
isticians see some significance in
postwar figures which show that
with total mobilization of 22,850,-
600 soldiers for the central powers,
22,090,000 casualties were inflicted
on tn eallies, while with 42,139 900
allied and associated men under arms
the central powers sustained only
15,405,000 casualties. The war de-
partment chart shows that per 1000
modified the central powers forces
inflicted 966 casualties, while the
corresponding figure for their OPP
ponents was 365.
In this connection it is pointed out
that the German and Austrian arm
les were produced under univer-
sal military training system, while
the allied and associated forces, with
the exception of the French army,
had no such background of training.
'4Thus the great mass of soldiers
of the central powers" the official
comment says, chad been trained
and equipped prior to the outbreak
of the war, while the soldiers Of the
yallied and associated powers were
to great extend hastily trained and
equipped after the outbreak Of war.
To just what extent the lesser cas-
ualty ratio of the central powers
forces was due to pre-war training
of the troops it would be difficult to
establish definitely, army experts
say, but the figures quoted are
viewed as substantiating the conten-
ton that careful training, particul-
arly of officers, both for duty with
company commands and for staff
work, does insure a reduction in the
price that must be paid in dead and
wounded, as well as in sick for any
large military operation.

LAWMAKERS TO BE
OFF TWO WEEKS
General Belief is That Deadlock Will
Continue for While.

Y CHARLESTON, w. VA, May 81.
Further activities in the legisla-
tive hall on the budget bill were
postponed for two weeks by the act
ion of the senate and house of dele
gates today when both adjourned I'M
til the afternoon of June 4. The adj
journment was taken in compliance
with a joint resolution passed last
week by the house when it met in the
closing minutes of the previous ex-
tension of he regular session and
heard the governors proclamation
extending the session until the end
of the fiscal year, June 20. The
house resolution was concurred in by
the senate today, and the house ncti-
fled of that action.
The meeting of the two bodies to-
day were mainly formalities, but 10
sahators present and only 13 mem
bers of the house of delegates. Be-
fore adjournment was taken in the
senate President Harry G.. Shaffer,
an-nouncel that the employees of that
body who had been appointed by the
president, would be relieved of fur
Their service as an economy measure
and that he has requested the clerk
to reduce his staff as rigidly as pos
sible. A saving of 5000 a day was
estimated by the president to be re-
presented in this action, whereas he
declared there would be nothing for
the senate attaches to do during the
coming two weeks and it would be
possible to call back into service
some of the regular staff if they
were needed when the legislature re-
convened.

CAR WRECKS ON GOOD ROADS

Saturday evening Harvey Thomp-
son and Frank Kidd We're on the Pike
just above Char. Lakes, Mr.. Thomp-
SON started to pass Mr.. Kidd, and
in some way the two cars caught to-
gether, turned one over which re-
suited in Mr.. Kidd having his hip
broken, Mr.. Thompson's daughter
with broken arm, Mrs. Thompson
with broken nose, and the two cars,
a Ford and new Studebaker, were
mashed up so badly that each one
had to be hauled into Main Street
Garage.
Sunday evening Carl Bennett
and Mr.. Mcdaniel. near Calhoun
came together with two Fords head
on, and both cars were badly demol-
ished. Miss Bennett was riding
with Mr.. Mcdaniel, who was thrown
against the windshield badly cut a.
bout the face. 1t is said some cars
were parked along the road, which
were the principal cause of this
wreck, and no red flag out. AS mar
row as the main Pike is at present,
cars should not be parked on the
main highway and any violations of
this kind should be promptly looked
into.

DELEGATE PAUGH OF BAR
BOUR COUNTY CRITICIZED

A West Virginia University stu
dent severely criticizes Delegate D..
Thurman Paugh, for his action on
the Budget bill, as follows:
what about the action Of our dele
gate Mr.. Paugh in the past or in the
present session Of the state legisla-
ture? Is he acting in accordance
with your wishes when he votes a.
gainst a budget?
"Mr. Paugh goes on record as hav-
ing voted against an appropriation
for physical education building for
the State University. Mr.. Paugh
himself is not college man, but
certainly delegate to the legisla-
ture should be. broad-minded enough
to see the present need for educat-
ion in this state.
West Virginia University is crowd
ed and cramped for room because
West Virginia wants educated men
and women. That is what West Vir-
ginians expecvt their state to give
them, yet our delegate deliberately
trys to hinder her progress.
True, Mr.. Paugh is a Democrat and
the House is Democratic, but the
true square man or woman, be they
Democrat or Republican consider
first the needs of their state and
party disputes secondly.
Whoever heard of a state with
out capitol? That's what West
Virginia is. Yet, this budget amend
ment which Mr.. Paugh voted for
provides no money for a.
capitol. 'ards or buildings and cuts
down cu educational appropriations.
Stran~a isn't i when West Vir-
ginia is close second TO rthe rich
est state in the Union?
IF Mr. Paugh asks for a vote
from West Virginia University
man or woman he certainly will not
get it. That will mean something in
future elections.
''Do you scanction Mr. Paugh's
stand? Are you, Democrat or Re-
publican, proud ofthe fact that your
delegates name is published in state
papers as voting against appropria-
tions to educate your boys and
girls ?" - E. M. w.
