V' THE RICH COUNTY NEWS. RANDOLPH, UTAH r MTIOMIF mm MUST GUARD THROUGH SUMMER SEASON AGAINST ARMY WORM INVASION FARMERS FAMOUS PEACE TREATIES By H. ATTAID5 "T Supreme Court May Have Last Word on the Treaty r (Copyright, In the heat of the controversy between the president and the League of Nations policy, the general public seems to have overlooked the fact that there may be a third party to the controversy by whom the final and conclusive decision may be rendered. This third party is the Supreme court of the United States. If the senate fails to ratify, the treaty becomes void by that action, and no appeal to the Supreme court would be necessary. If the League of Nations covenant shall be ratified by the senate it will be incumbent on congress immediately to make an appropriation to cover the United States portion of the expenditure deemed necessary to establish and provide for the maintenance ct the leagues secretariat, to be set up in Geneva. As soon as Congress seeks to do this, the taxpayers action will be commenced on the ground that the United States, by its Constitution, is inhibited from participation in such a convention, certain obligations assumed by the United States under the covenant being in direct contravention of provisions of the Constitution. , . If the court should decide that the objections raised were sound, and that ,the covenant of the League of Nations actually would, in effect, amend the Constitution, the treaty could not be carried out until the Constitution had been amended in the way the Constitution itself provides it shall be amended, namely, by the submission of an enactment of a federal amendment. Several persons are ready to bring this test action, among them being Hannls Taylor, minister to Spain under McKinley. The fight and duty of the Supreme court is defined in section 2 of article 3 of the Constitution. WASHINGTON. noticed one morning ITtheWASground had acquired a at Madison, Wis., that the snow which lay on bright yellowish tint. At the same time the people of Florence, in the same state, were surprised to find that the snow looked dusty and had acquired a reddish brown color. Similar effects were noticed elsewhere as far east as Vermont and New Hampshire. This strange phenomenon was examined by several scientists. They found that a very fine dust had fallen, apparently all over the eastern United States. The strangest thing about this fall of dust was that it occurred in a region the greater part of which lay under snow and had been under snow for many days. It was evident, therefore, that the dust must have traveled hundreds, if not thousands, of miles. The study made by government scientists shows that this assumption was correct. Samples of the dust have been analyzed, with the result that it was shown to be composed of minerals found, not in the North where the dust fell, but in the Southwest. The scientists assert positively that this dust came all the way from Arizona, New Mexico and Kansas, being borne by those large movements of the air which cause our variations of weather. It is interesting to note that a little before these strange dustfalls occurred in the North and Northwest there were heavy sandstorms in the Southwest. At Albuquerque, N. M there was a storm such as none of the could remember to have seen before. The air was filled with clouds of dust and sand so dense that street cars and taxicabs could not run. Scientists say that this migratory dust is worthy of careful study, as it carries germs, spores of plants and important elements of soil. The Army Worm and Some of Its Insect Enemies.

TREATY OF BUCHAREST, A Peace Treaty Signed Just 1913. Before the World War Broke. The boundaries which those chronic disturbers of the peace, the Balkan states, had before the recent world war were established to them by the treaty of Bucharest signed at the Roumanian capital on August 6, 1913, by representatives of the said states and Greece. That treaty closed two wars, practically, one in which the Bal-'ka- n states were united in fighting Turkey and one in which they were fighting among themselves. By 1910 the Bulgar and Greek bands in Macedonia, which had been quite- as likely to massacre each other as to massacre the Turks, had got together for the purpose of devoting all their efforts Then against the common enemy. trouble broke out in Albania and the Serbians sent their irregulars to help the Albanians against the Turks. It was the same old story of the Balkans being aflame again. In March of 1912 Greece, Bulgaria, Montenegro and Serbia came to an understanding, agreeing to bury their mutual animosities temporarily and combine against the Turk. Roumania stood aloof. The Porte, alarmed, promised reforms in Albania and Macedonia. Turkey also announced that she would hold army maneuvers near Adrianople. Began to Diplomatize. The great powers began to diplomatize, to prevent a war. Germany and Austria declared that the status quo In the Balkans must be maintained, and Austria mobilized her army. But the wild nations of the Balkans had got out of hand, and little Montenegro, on October 8, 1912, declared war against Turkey. On October 17 Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia Issued a joint declaration to the same effect. A Bulgarian army of 300,000 men occupied Mustaplia Pasha on Och on the 24th and tober 19, invested Adrianople on the 27th. Two days later was fought the sanguinary battle of Lule Burgas, the chief battle of the war, with a front of 22 miles. In this battle . the Turks lost 35,000 killed and wounded and 3,000 prisoners, while the Bulgarians lost 15,000 killed and wounded. The Turks now fell back upon the Tchatalja forts, the last line of defense for Constantinople. Meantime the Serbians had swept into Macedonia and were driving the Turks before them with heavy losses, while one part of their army was sent to join the Greeks at Salonikl and another detachment to help the Montenegrins. The Greeks, coming up from the south, routed the Turks in several engagements and finally captured Salonikl. Turkey asked the powers to me-- When Old Dame Nature Gets Ready to Scatter Seed 1919, IRVING KING it. They did so and an armistice was signed between Bulgaria, Serbia and Montenegro on one side and Turkey on the other on December 3. Greece refused to sign any armistice-whil- d'ate and be quick about Janinn, the Albanian capital, remained in Turkish hands, and contin- ued to attack that city. The powers . hurriedly got together in a peace con-ference in London. There was no coming to terms with the Turk, and on February 3, 1913, hostilities were resumed. The Greeks captured Janina, and the Bulgarians drove in the Tchatalja line. A Bulgarian and Serhian, army took Adrianople with the Turkish commander and 30,000 prisoners. Scutari in Albania was besieged by a Montenegrin and Serhir.n army, and in the Adriatic were Greek with the troops. Powers Could Not Agree. The powers were frantic and could not agree among themselves. But on April 19, 1913, another armistice was signed, and on May 30 the belligerents signed at London a treaty of peace-witTurkey. By this treaty Turkey surrendered to the Balkan allies the island of Crete and all territory on the European mainland west of the Enos-Midi-a line, and left the adjustment of the Albanian frontiers and the disposal of the Aegean Islands to the powers, which meant that Turkey gave up all her European possessions except Constantinople and the country immediately back of It.
