Johnson Shoe for Working

We would give good many dollars
if we could show this shoe to every
workingman. every farmer, every
truckman, every quarryman, every man
who gives shoes especially hard wear.
If we could only do this, there would
be no other working shoes sold, because
the moment you see them you realize
that they are superior for wear to any
you ever saw at any price. They are
not dressy shoes-shoes cannot be
goodlookers and "good wearers ]"
at the same time, but if wear is what
you want, Johnson shoes beat all the
shoes yet made.

It's rather queer how some people
want the newspaper man to enthuse on
every possible or impossible occasion;
to steam up and blow off over every
little thing concerning the town OF
country or the inhabitants thereof, and
yet always forget to oil the machine.
1t takes lots of power and oil to make
a big press run easily and smoothly
and if some Of those always desiring its
services would dig up a little more
freely for its motive power they would
find the newspaper force in little bet
ter humor to grant their requests. II

1T IS DEPLORABLE.

One can but wonder when they see
men, after laboring long hours at the
hardest kind OF work, spend with APP
parent pleasure in few hours OF days
the earnings OF month or year. The
story is not new. But it is just now
being acted over and over again by
men who are helping to build the new
railroad or are working in the camps
for the Potlatch Lumber Company, in
this county. And to every thoughtful
person it must appeal with sadness.
Why will men spend their earnings
with such lavish generosity knowing
that their conduct means more hard
work. Why do men insist on doing
that which brings only remorse, pow
erty, shame, crime disease, and self
reproach7 And all this in the face Of
a protest from their employers7 The
Potlatch company has served notice
that its employees must keep sober,
and is doing all it can to induce its
men 10 save their earnings and stick to
their jobs, but few Of the men appear
to appreciate the effort in their behalf.
True, the company is moved only by
selfish motives, but most worthy ones
just the same, and the people should
give all possible assistance in helping
to enforce the law.
Now the point the News desires 10
emphasize is this: What will any of
the proposed measures for the equal
cation of the classes do with this class
of Individuals What will socialism
do for the man who refuses to assist
HIMSELF And so long as working men
refuse to help themselves OF make the
least effort to better their condition, is
there a hope for a changer 1t seems
to the writer that the proposition is a
big one, the solution, to a great ex-
tent, lying at the door of the working
classes. Is it not really matter of
choice rather than the result Of gov
ernmental form OF law? So long as
working men insist on remaining poor
there is little hope that they will ever
have very much wealth forced upon
them, and if they did few of the class
referred to have the good sense to save
i. Law, if just, can give every man
square deal" but no more, and any
theory that pretends more would prove
dismal failure. Any system that
makes success possible without man
working for II will necessitate the re-
peal OF that law which says as thou
sowest, so shalt thou reap" Law, if
just, will make it possible for each
sower to harvest his own crop, but
that is all.

A GREAT LOCATION

The Moscow journal roundly roasts
a gentleman whom, it alleges, has left
the city Of the dead, and located in
Troy. 1t scores him because he is
alleged to have asserted that he didn't
consider Moscow real estate worth the
taxes, now only 7 ID per cent per
year. Then the Journal proceeds TO
grow enthusiastic and makes the start
ling announcement that Moscow is a
good town." which will cause even the
citizens of Moscow to scratch their heads
and wonder what the Journal means by
the word good" 1t is located"
continues the journal, in the center
OF the richest farming land in the vest
All OF which is true, but misleading,
because the Journal has forgotten to
tell those who may not be acquainted
with the facts just how extensive is
this rich farming land" Whv not
tell the cold tIuth2 Why make the
assertions that would lead the stranger
to believe that Moscow is the ONLY
town for a hundred miles? Does Mos
COW know that only four miles west is
another good" town called Sunshine
and that only nine miles south is that
other good town of Blaine? Then
there is Joel, four miles east of Mos
COW, and Viola, another GOOD town
to the north but nine miles. Whv.
the section designated as the richest
farming land in the west is full of
good towns and instead of Moscow
being the center it is only spoke in
the big fly wheel. After while Mos
COW will come to and realize that there
are a whole lot of towns besides Mos
COW. 1t will wake up to the fact that
while it has been dreaming and con-
graduating itself on being the center
OF the universe other towns have been
growing and are now far ahead of il in
the race for business supremacy. The
ooaSted location is farce that is really
funny. Just take a map of Latah
county and look it up. If the Journal
really wants to know the meaning of
good town, and a business center
