This paper, the Berlin Deutsche Tag exeitung. says that the rulers of Germany do not daro make a peace which omits a rood slied Indemnity to their nation. And the reason given Is that Gorman finances have already' progressed to a point that would mean bankruptcy through the Immense war debt. If no relief could com. Condemning the socialist plea of "no indemnities; no annexations," thla German paper makes the sur prising statement: 'A peace without Indemnities will poll ruin for Germany. Before the war the wealth of the German peo ple amounted to between 330 and 390 billion marks, (between $82. 000,000.000 and $97,000,000,000) of which nearly half has actually been spent on the war. Without an Indemnity, there is no hope of get ting on during the first ten years following the close of the war. Ger mans would have to carry extra taxa tion amounting to 12 billion marks compared with the pro-war taxation of three and one half billion marks. Another Shipment Merced Sweet Potatoes Order Early ?

Hanson, of Corvallls. winners of the Northwest Egg Laying contest at the Washing ton Btate college, laid 971 egg's in 10 months. Five hens belonging to P. W. Harris of Seattle, were second.

Germany's war debt Is apt to swamp her unless she manages to get an indemnity from some source. She has gambled away j half of her wealth on an effort to. force her "kultur" upon an unwilling; i world. Is she risking her all on a: peace that will save her as against a peace that may mean economic ruin? J This brings up the matter of i where an Indemnity forced upon Germany by the allies could come' from. The most plausible guess is that the German government will repudiate Its debts with the result tbat the people will take the govern raent in their own hand. This means the German people most figure out tome way to pay to themselves, for they hold most of the government's bonds, as much as they can and still keep the country solvent.
