The news came with a welcome sound that the allies had adopted a peremptory tone toward the German government in the matter of carrying out the terms of the Versailles treaty. Investigations have proved that Germany has been no| only lax, about the fulfilment of these terms, but so ex tremely negligent as to seem deliberate in the failure to meet her agreement. Seventy-two naval vessels that should have been turned over to the allies have been retained, for example, and there are still 7,850 airplanes in viola tion of the terms. Cannon and small arms have been withheld in large numbers, and scores of thousands of soldiers in excess of the number al lowed have been kept under arms. The new agreement which the Germans have been forced to sign, and which they signed under pro test, contains the following provisions. Germany said: 1. Immediately disarm certain of its forces, in cluding the security police. 2. Publish a proclamation asking for the im mediate surrender of all weapons and firearms in the hands of the civilian population. 3. Abolish immediately compulsory service. 4. Surrender to the allies guns and cannon which it possesses above the limit fixed by the treaty of Versailles. Moreover, says the allies: "If on October 1 the German army is not reduced to 150,000 men, the allies will proceed to occupy German territory in the Ruhr or any other part of German territory, and will not evacuate it until all the conditions of the present agreement have been fulfilled." The Germans sought for loopholes and techni- PRESS COMMENTS-THArS All cy mxcMMJ/mM apnea* iM^MM day evening. ''Z '-,r The Community Club met Tuesday: afternoon at- Mrs. M. E. Khappen's home.

They expect to be gone a week When In Doubt, Add 10 Per Cent, A Walt street man was negotiating with a country tinsmith for the re newal of the rain gutters on his house. Inquiring cautiously about the cost of copper gutters, he was surprised to find that they would cost him at the rate of more than 50 cents a pound, though the metal sella In ingots around 19 cents. Well," aald the smith, you see the men that work the metal up In the hop get $9 a day. The shop adds 10 per cent for the workmen's insurance and aims to make at least $1 a day on every man. When ft conies to me, I figure the cost of the materials acd labor, and I have to add 10 per cent to the wages to cover insurance cost, too.

Justice and honor, apparently, h^ye no more power to move them than of yore. Fear is the only weapon of any avail. Pear, therefore,, the allies havfe decided tp: iise, with the iea* taking form in force if necessary. Americans can but'admire the stand of the com bined powers who have taken matters into their hands in so summary a. fashion, though owing to failure to ratify the treaty, they have no power to add weight of American votes to this just and necessary action. V'r .$?{,%/'''' is for Mr. King the farmer-labor gubernatorial candidate and others on the ticket to withdraw in favpr of the league's candidates, but the withdrawal stunt is something yet to be arranged. Friends say Mr. King will not withdraw and if such is the case Mr. Townley will have to file his candidates by peti tion. At a meeting of leaguers held in Minneapolis last week, Townley was the big speaking card and he took advantage of the occasion to send out a frantic call for financial help. A million dollars was his cry and he gave it out cold that unless league members busied themselves that he might have to pass the organization up. "No nickel stuff for him," he said. The enemy was spending millions he declared, and the league wuold have to dig if it wanted to live. i.

They are still dickering, it is said. One well known democratic state senator from the southern part of the state said this week that it was of general knowledge that the leaguers down his way were for "Larry Ho" and the same story comes from a number of league strongholds, in the Seventh district. "My opinion," said this southern Minnesota senator, "is that Shipstead, if he comes up again in the fall, will be badly knifed by leaguers. Larry is going to get a lot of league votes.". *U-v.-.' say nothing about the saving in time, and the comfort of gliding along the highway without a jolt or jar.-Osakis Review. .4:^"Qh,. what is so rare as. a. day in,J4in.e.''*l*:'Jinfis*r^ "A day in July.

Nova Scotia may lay claim to be ing the earliest colonized land in North America, with the exception Of St. An gustine, Fla., where the Spanish es tablishment'was made as early as 2565. Port Royal, now the little town of Annapolis, was founded .in 1604, three years before the English settled at Jamestown. The brave French pioneers found it necessary to sus pend their colony for three years, but the. settlement was re-established In 1610 by a group of Acadlans. The Acadlans were In almost con stant conflict with the EJnglish. The colony fell Into the hands of the Bngr llch twice, and was each time returned to the French before the English final-, !y captured It in 1710. The Acadlans remained steadfast In their hopes that -French -rule, would some day return, but their hope was destined never to be realised. .They, however,-persisted lu maintaining their identity even gainst .the English Insistence that they abandon their allegiance to their mother country.... The descendants of the jAcadlana, numbering 900,000, are to be found {n Maryland, Virginia, the, Oarolinas, Georgia and Louisiana. When the Acadlans were expelled from the .Basin Of Hones, 3rand Pre, when they re fused to taae the oath of fealty to tho Bnfrllsh sovereign in 1755. many of them escaped to the wilderness and later drifted back to their former homes only to find them occupied by new settler* from New England states. rff.* _fy?iMifr-r-~v ^-^*.,.^%-w-i-. ,Vfc'e*^rf.ii^i*WN'' mm RfcALLYBACK NUMBER ."'vixViviff-^Ar- rf Writer Brings Forward Argument* tp Prove That the Chines* Ar* the More Progressive. It may strikWthe western reader Imply funny, but more than one Chi nes^ friend has'assured me that It the Japanese people who are really conservative. And the back up their .assertion by evidence other than the way in which Japan baa clung through all historic vicissitudes, tc a primitive theocracy. John Pewey writes in Asia Magazine. They point out, for exam pie that a thousand years ago the Jap anese borrowed, the present style of clothing and of household furnishing, of sitting and sleeping on mats, from China that China has changed sev eral times, moving constantly in the di rection of practical utility, of ingeni ous adaptation of means to needs. The Chinese cuisine Is another argument It Is doubtless the most extensive in tho world in the variety of material employed for food, and also the most varied in Its combinations. Academic analysis day despise arguments drawn from food, clothing, shelter and fur nishings. But when one notes the va riety, and Ingenuity of the processes and appliances used In dally life and in the crafts, one Is certain that the Chi nese mind Is naturally observant and adaptive. But It seems unnecessary to labor the question. Many charges have been brought against the Chinese, but no one has ever accused them of stu pidity Their undoubted conservatism Is something to be explained rather than an explanation of anything.
