H When Price and Carbon county arc ready for H' n better newspaper it will be The Sun. Hi Carbon county farmers arc going to help H smash tho kaiser by smashing the farm records H next year. ssssbb , H Twenty-one yenrs from now there'll be as H many young men named Joffre or Pershing ns H there arc Dcwcys today. H Camouflage can't fool the avcrago Carbon H county housewife. She watches The Sun for H facts about merchandise. H' As the Boston Transcript puts it: "Wo see by H the papers that the democratic national commit- H tec is Boon to meet in Paris." H Last March Trotsky wns working on a New H York newspaper for twelve dollars a week. Just H now ho probably wishes he had that job buck H again. H Public ownership of the lighting and power B system at Price has proven a failure. It has l taken a raise in rates, however, to make n lot of K people Hee it. H! Capitalists arc interested fn the price of steel, f oil, copper nnd tho like. However, the domestic HHJj economist in Price is more interested in the prico HHJi of meat, groceries and clothes and she has her HiaH eyes on the advertisements in The Sun. H Money spent by Price and Helper in water lltl- j gation, which has just begun, would go a long HHJ ways towards acquiring, for instance, n joint j water system for tho two cities. No matter HHj who wins in the suits now in court, it is only n HHJ start to more nnd endless litigation. HHJ Our country has two hundred thousand men HHJ engaged in building ships, nnd will add three j T hundred thousand more, so that in 1918 there J will be five million tons turned out. Whether J tho war continues that long or not, Uncle Snm In j that year will have one of tho world's greatest HBJ merchant fleets something that the American HHj flag has needed for years. B Suppose n man came to town with an elephant j Thcro would bo no use at all in advertising it in j The Sun because we don't think anybody in Prico B would want to buy the animal. He would havo to BBJ advertise that in the Breeder's Gazette or the BBJ Menagerie Journnl. But if a man in Prico him B something to sell that we nil must have to live BBj or enjoy ourselves with a necessity or a luxury BBfl wo can afford "go to II" in the columns of The BB1 Sun. BHl Next month wo may declare war against Aus- BB tria, Bulgaria and Turkey. But the war will nl- BB ways be known ns the war with Germany. Gcr- BB many was the aggressor, from the start. Gcr- BB many has been tho nctive agent all tho time. BB Austria would never havo bulldozed Serbia but BB for Germany's approval. Bulgaria would never BJ have been drawn in but for the Invishness of Bf German promises. Turkey would havo kept out BJ but for Germany's pressure. So, no matter how BJ many nominal enemies we or the other allies may BJ have, tho one great enemy is nnd will be Gcr- BJ many. m Italy and the United States have a common M bond these dnys. In Italy thero arc some two Bfl million men who hnve never been on the fighting BJ lino becnuse thero aro not rifles and supplied for BB them. Any considerable portion of these rc- M serves, if they could be placed effectively on the m Tnglinmcnto lino, would put an end to von Mnck- BB J enscn's "drive." In tho United States about BBh seven hundred thousand men hnve been taken by Bfl I selective draft nnd ordered to cantonment, where BJ thero aro not enough rifles to enable them to bo BJ drilled, not enough uniforms to cnnblc them to BJ be clad nnd not enough housing t enable all of BJ them to join tho colors. It is no wonder that BJ thero is a larger sympathy for Italy in this coun- BJ try than elsewhcro among the allies and freer B expression of it. H There is an impression locally that tho present H .high prices for commodities of all kinds will H cense just ns soon ns tho great war is over. Thero B ' no reason to think so. The present high prices H will remain long after tho war is over. Tho mil- M lions of wealth that has been destroyed in build- H ings cannot be replaced in a short time. The H millions of men who will have been killed or in- H j u red cannot be compensated for in a short time. H Only new generations can do this. The older r residents of Price will remember that this was Kg true after the civil war. Thero was a period of BJj high prices long after that conflict. The same HH wns true following tho Napoleonic wars. We H may aB well draw these conclusions from tho BJ " pages of history. They aro based on a law of BJ .economics that is ns certain in its operation as BJ a law of nature. ' Hi r THRIFT STAMPS AND THE WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES. Government war savings stamps and certifi cates and thrift stamps will bo on sale through out the country next Monday, December 3d, nt the postoffices, all the banks and trust compan ies, railroad stations nnd nt other public places. Any person with twenty-five cents can invest Carbon county hns been asked to buy $225,310 worth, the apportionment being computed on tho bank deposits of the county. The plan has been worked out by Frank A. Vnnderlip, presi dent of tho National City Bank of New York City, who Is giving his entire time to his coun try nt a salary of one dollar a year. No one can work for Uncle Sam for nothing. All purchasers can sell back to the government all certificates with 3 per cent interest on this money. The certificates are tax exempt and no one mny purchase more than n hundred dollars worth at any one time, nor more than a thousand dollars worth altogether In December nnd next January war savings stamps will bo sold at $4.12 ench. After that one cent will be added each month to the price. If twenty stamps aro bought during December, 1917, nnd January, 1918, the cost will be 82.40 for the filled certificate, for which the government will pay $100 on January 1, 1923. Thrift stamps will cost twenty-five cents apiece. When the card is filled with six teen nt a cost of four dollars, it may be ex changed for n war savings stamp bearing inter est nt 4 per cent, compounded quarterly. The thrift stamps do not bear interest. Money from the sale of certificates will be used to meet the expenses of the war. Two hundred nnd twenty-five thousand dol lars is a huge sum to ask of the people here abouts just after two liberty lonn subscriptions, but that Carbon county will do herself proud in this last campaign goes without saying. Her people hnve met every appeal of their govern ment so far w 1th n hearty response nnd when the final count is mndo Carbon will hnve a plncc in the subscription list of which everyone living within her borders will be justly proud. "Tell the tiuth nnd shun the devil'' In an nxiom ns old as tho hills and n very true one. Price river water Is no worse now thnn it always has been nnd will never be better thnn it now is. The only way we'll ever get purer water for use lo cally will bo by constructing n system from some Coint above tho contaminated area. This must e done by nil the towns, cities nnd communities going together or by each place individually. These lawsuits are n waste of money and arc getting the cities of Price nnd Helper nowhcic. ARE THOUGHT TO BE MURDERED (Continued from imcn one ) about 35 years, but where he camo from to this city and what he did previously Is not known lo cally. Hu is said to be a single mnn. Interviewed nt Salt I-nko City Goyn is report ed as saying: "A few days ago I received n let ter from tho Spanish consul at Boise. Ida,, in forming me that Gcmino wns at Bingham. The consul says Gemlno killed three Spanish boys before leaving Price. I remember tho circum stance. Gcmino had a little farm near there. Three boys were figuring on buying it. They hnd five hundred dollars ench. They disappear ed. It is now believed that Gcmino nnd somo of his friends killed them nnd hid their bodies, get ting away with the fifteen hundred dollars be tween them." The fnrm referred to by Goyn Is one that belonged to Frank Grosso nnd tho late L. O. Hoffmann, situate nbout three miles up the river from Price, near the ranches of Levi B. Pace nnd his brother, James F. Pace. The three Spanish boys were on the ranch for n time. While tho members of thu Spanish colony in that sec tion were nil known ns good farmers, they are snid to have been hard to get along with nnd wcro always in more or less trouble with their neighbors, the wntermnstcr on the ditch nnd folks generally they came in contnet with. Armcndarls Hatches Up Story. When the three young men now supposed to hnve been murdered failed to show up nmong their countrjmen nnd associates at Price inquir ies began to bo mndo of the reason for their not coming to the city. The question wns once put to Armendnris and his reply wns that he had forced them to quit the ranch nnd leave the country. His excuse for bo doing wns that they were always In trouble nnd ho hnd tired of it Further, he stated, he hnd marched them to the train nt Price nt the point of n sixshootcr and forced them to bonrd it. This story appears to havo been ncccpted by the Spanish and Mexican colony nt Price, and nothing more would have been thought of them but for the murder chnrge now under investigation by tho consul nt Boise, Idn, nnd the arrest of Sola or Gemlno. It is now tho belief of many that the young men were murdered for their money nnd tho bodies burled somewhere in the west hills. Gcmino Not Wanted Here. Records kept by the sheriff's office show that Gcmino (Sola) was arrested and taken before A. J. Lee, justice at Price, on October 14, 1915, for disturbance of tho pence and thnt ho was dis charged for lack of sufficient evidence. This was in connection with the row nt tho Carbon Hotel. This date does not tally with tho ono given by Goyn, thnt of December 21, 1915, when the trouble at tho Carbon Hotel took place. La ter an effort was made to have the fellow put un der bonds to keep the peace, but nothing wns dono in the mntter ond in tho meantime Gcnimo had left hero. Sheriff Collinghnm had an in quiry from the sheriff nt Salt Lake City last Tuesday concerning Gemlno nnd replied thnt tho man is not wnnted here, thero being no chnrge against him. Sheriff Collinghnm hns not de cided whether he will make a search for tho men believed by the consul nt Boise, Ida., to have been slain. Folks knowing tho trio of tho Car bon Hotel aro Inclined to the belief thnt murder would not stand in the way of their getting money.
