IDAHO CONVENTION
BECKONS POLITICIAN
Coeur d'Alene Is Mecca of
Republican Party.
HARMONY SIGNS LACKING
Borali and Wood Hackers Opposed
olid Cla-li Likely to See Who
Will Win Delegation. '
ROIS10, Idaho. April 24. (Special.)
Coeiir d'Alene is the Mecca of dele
gates from 44 counties in the state,
republican party leaders, officehold
ers and of f iceseekcrs, this week, for
on "Wednesday the state convention,
which will name eight delegates to
the republican national convention,
will be held. While party leaders are
hopeful that the- gathering will prove
to be a harmonious one. signs arc not
lacking: that there will be a clash
among those entitled to seats in the
convention, for there Is a division of
sentiment as to what action the con
clave shat take in selecting its dele
Rales. This sentiment can be classi
fied as follows: Those delegates who
desire a delegation that will stand by
and vote for Leonard Wood, or who
insist that men favorable to Wood be
placed on the delegation, and, second,
those delegates who insist on an un
lnstructed delegation at the head of
which shall be United States Senator
Borah and representative men of the
party friendly to .him.
The word that reached IdaJio from
Washington during last week that
Wood's managers had sent word that
every effort should be put forth to
prevent Senator Borah from being
named a delegate from his home state,
thus barring him from the national
convention floor, so that he cannot
present his views on the league of
nations, has aroused his friends to
action.
Republican party leaders declare
that it would be the most absurd
thing ever attempted in the history
of Idaho politics to purposely attempt
to prevent a senator of Borah's prom
inence from heading the delegation
from his own state. Aside from the
absurd feature they point out, they
assert it would be a most unwise po
litical move from a party standpoint,
as Senator Borah has repeatedly dem
onstrated that he is firmly entrenched
in the confidence of the electors. At
the last general election he led the
ticket in Idaho with the largest plu
rality ever given a republican candi
. date, or more than 30.000 votes.
Irrespective of the alleged instruc
tions the Wopd people are said to
have received, it is not likely that an
"effort will be made to bar Senator
Borah from the delegation. If it is
made, the Borah supporters are well
organized to combat it, they say. It
is said to be more than likely, that
they will accept Borah as a member
of the delegation rather than attempt
to arouse such bitter antagonism, but
if they have the votes will endeavor
to name known Wood men to travel
to Chicago on the same delegation
with him, or they may offer to in
struct Idaho's eight delegates for
Borah with the understanding that
they are to go to whom they please
after being released. This, it is
pointed out, would permit them to
vote for Wood, as Borah is not an
announced candidate.
That such an arrangement will not
be satisfactory to either Senator
Borah or to his friends over the
state is well known. They say that
to attempt to name Borah on an unin
structed delegation, with all of the
other delegates pronounced Wood
men would be embarrassing to the
senior senator and decidedly Inconsistent.
the officialdom of a republic that ex- f
ists only in the hopes and prayers of i
the people of Corea, for the leaders '
of the revolutionists, with th- pattern I
of a government made up of officials I
chosen secretly last summer, have
grouped themselves together here
with Shanghai as their capital. The
connection between this government
and the pe'ople of Corea is a carefully
guarded secret, and is a system not
unlike the "underground railroad" by
which fugitive slaves sought afety
in the north in the days of the Amer
ican Civil war. It is. effective, how
ever, for the' behests of the exiled
government are swiftly transmitted
and are said to be obeyed to the let
ter by the masses under the Japanese
rule in Corea.
Through the decade that has fol
lowed the annexation by Japan. Baron
Kim has worked for Corea's inde
pendence. He said he escaped with a party
from Corea by a perilous march over
land, going by devious routes through
the roughest country and traveling
for the most part at night. In their
final dash they waded through
swamps crossed rives in dugouts, hid
through days in fields and slashed
their way through underbrush before
they knew they were safe in China.

"Not more than three people, even
for social purposes, may gather and

the instruction is given in the Jap-

He said that the history that is
taught to children is garbled in such

Italian Professor Says Millions
Needed for Experimentation In
Nature of Disease.
ROME. Sleeping sickness, or sleep
ing headache, as the Italian scientists
prefer to call the malady which has
appeared in Rome and several other
Italian cities, is believed by Professor
Giuseppe Sanarelll, the distinguished
Italian bacteriologist, to be the same
as that which followed other waves
of influenza. Pope Benedict XIII died
from influenza in 1730. The after ef
fects of the epidemic at that time
were so baneful that his successor
Benedict XIV, waived the fasting of
churchmen durlryj Lent, and similar
action was taken by Pope Leo XIII in
1S90, when there was another wave
of influenza, or la" grippe.
Professor Sanarelli, who has been
studying the disease, says that the
best way to avoid sleeping ickness
is to keep the powers of resistance up
to the highest point as it seems to at
tack chiefly persons who are in a
run-down condition. He also warns
the public not to be unduly alarmed
about the disease, and says he is un
willing to concede it is highly com
municable or contagious until the
actual cause of the malady is deter
mined. And he does not think the
germ will be discovered until after ex
tensive experimentation with ' the
brain of monkeys, such an expensive
work that it can be carried out only
with the aid of the millions of some
philanthropist millionaire, like John
1J. Rockefeller.
Professor Sanarelli says because of
the sporadic appearance of the disease
it is reasonable to assume that many
persons carry the germs but are im:
mune to the disease until there is
some sudden let-down in their phys
ical condition which overcomes their
power of resistance. As the malady
always makes its appearance at the
same season as infantile paralysis and
cerebro-spinal meningitis, or spotted
fever, and as it persists in reappear
ing occasionally between epidemics.
Professor Saranelll says It is not
etrange that it is frequently believed
to be Identical wfth them. However,
he thinks it is quite a distinct dis
ease, as it is confined chiefly to adults
and does not Jeave the serious effects
of cerebro-spinal meningitis.
The malady has been diagnosed in
widely scattered parts of the world in
1917. 1918 and 1919. At least 100 cases
were reported from English cities in
1918. but it died out in June. Until
this year it had not been reported in
Italy since 1889 and 1890, when it
appeared in Mantua. Many persons
died tnen atter a few d; s. sometimes
even hours, of lethargic "sleep which
could not be overcome. Bulgaria also
had an epidemic at that time, and
cases occurred in the United States.
In most cases the illness begins
with mental depression, which is fol
lowed by sleepiness, which develops
into complete prostration. Drooping of
the eyelids and frequently a crossing
of the eyes occur. Loud talk and even
shaking will not arouse patients suf
fering acutely with the malady, who
answer inccherently to all inquiries
and fall immediately into sleep again.
The lace is generally colorless and de
void of expression.
Professor Sanarelli is a member of
the faculty of the University of Bo
logna and was formerly professor of
micto-biology and public hygiene, at
the University of Montevideo. He was
also formerly under secretary of state
for agriculture in Italy.

BUENOS AIRES. La Epocha, organ
of the government party in Argentina,
has just published a communication
from the Colombian legation giving
the text of resolutions adopted by the
senate and house of representatives
of Colombia onNovember 3 last, pro
testing against the alleged infringe
ment by the United States of Colom
bia's rights over the Isthmus of Pan
ama. The resolution of the Colombian
senate reads:
"This being the sixteenth anniver
sary of the rebellion of Panama,
fomented and supported by the gov
ernment of the United States of
America, with manifest infraction of
a public tTeaty. the senate of the re
public interprets public opinion in de
claring, once more, that the rights of
Colombia over the Isthmus of Pan
ama are imprescribable, and in pro
testing, as it does protest, before the
civilized world, against the causes
which have impeded the use and de
fense of its rights.
"Coloinbi reaffirms solemnly to
day its right to all and each one of
the portions of territory bestowed
upon it by its liberators, and, what
ever be the answer, which time shall
bring to the hopes of revindication,
that its cause is the cause of justice
and civilization, that of the sover
eignty and integrity of nations.
"The senate, in making this protest
and these declarations, expresses the
wish to see substituted by the action
of equity and justice the proceedings
which have limited and made nuga
tory the rights of weak nations."
The resolution of the house, ex
pressing similar sentiments, com
plains against the failure of the Unit
ed States senate to approve the treaty
of April 6, 1914, and protests against
the proposed celebration of a new
pact "quite foreign" to the April 6,
convention.
By the treaty" of April 6. 1914. the
United States woura have expressed
"regret" and paid Colombia Jlli.UOO.
000 for its action in Panama. That
treaty has not been approved by the
United States senate.

Experts who have investigated the
composition of certain foodstuffs now

Bulgaria and Poland May Re "In

LONDON. The people of the new
countries like Czecho-Slovakia are
turning to the Salvation Army in a!
remarkable manner, says General
Bramwell Booth,, head of the army.
The army never has had an organiza
tion in Czecho-Slovakia. and so anx
ious is the government of thiat coun
try to get the army installed that
all necessary buildings for the work
have been offered free.
Bulgaria and Poland probably will
be "invaded" shortly by this friendly
army. Both of these countries are
new territory for the Salvationists.
The Vienna government has re
quested the Salvation Army to assist
iji the relief work . in Austria, and
General Booth has sent a commis
sion to Vienna to investigate the
feasibility of embarking on this labor.
The German government has asked
him to co-operate with it irt supply
ing milk in Germany, and he ex
pressed the hope that the army might
be able to do this.
General Booth disclosed the fact
that the Salvation Army has never
ceased work in Bolshevist Russia, de
spite conditions there. The army has
six or seven establishments in Petro
grad and twice as many in other
sections of the country. Apparently
the reds have not been troubling the
army . workers, all of whom, it is
pointed out. are Russians or Finns,
the British workers having been
withdrawn. The army, among other
things, is looking after war. orphans
and doing such rescue work as it can.
