me harm.
Senator Grande had made a
speech about education, and in wiring
the speech out l substituted the short

operators or editors at the other end
would have sense enough, in taking
down the message. to substitute the

in this fashion:

community of imparting a sound

saying in behalf of all kids the world

The big plant, which was built this

and is equipped with 81 of the latest

Rosie Henry, as the luckless Amer

tons" the cabin boy, handle the
comey of the play In finished and
pleasing manner, and had the center
of the stage all the time. The song,

the best numbers of the evening.
Harold Harshman, as ''Haraldo,
nephew of the Rajah, the only male
member in the cast, was good IN

The entire cast was good both in
the action of the play and in the
specialties, and in fact it would be
difficult to find fault with any of
them. The little folks have the cen

The Forestry Dissension.
spokesman Review


Is Admirers of Senator Fred I. Du-
bois have always claimed that he pos
sesses more moral courage than any
other politician in Idaho; and his
espousal of the forest reserve policy
OF the national administration goes
far to. bear out that claim. For no.
body will dispute that the reserve
policy is. unpopular in North Idaho.
Senator Dubois, by his opposition to
the Mormon church, has already lost
the support of large part of south
ern Idaho, particularly those counties
where the Mormons predominant
1t goes without saying that the hos.
tility to the forest reserve policy
comes primarily from the timber and
mill interests. Having gotten hold
OF large proportion of the timber in
north Idaho. these interests naturally
object to policy which curtails the
scope Of their operations. The pros
perity of many towns in the panhan-
die is closely interviewer with the
mill interests, aud when the millmen
cry that the Rooevelt forest reserve
idea will handicap them and re-
tard the growth aud prosperity of
their communities they naturally find
many willing listeners.
Clifford Pinchot, head of the fores
try bureau, is we'll to do financially.
He is neither an ordinary officeholder
nor bureaucrat. He took up the
work because he is an enthusiast be-
cause he believes that the preserva
tion of the forests is one of vital con-
sequence to the future we'll being of
the country, and because be believes
that timber syndicates should not be
permitted to despoil them. II is nat
ural that his views should meet with
strenuous opposition IN section
where the lumber industry Is para.
mount IL Is refreshing 60 find "a
senator whose future tenure Of oifiee
depends upon the votes Of the dis.
eifeoted communities displaying the
psrys to uphold the unpopular policy.
