New State FIes.

The fine new state flag, for the
securing of which 800 was appro-
priated by the last Idaho legisla-
ture, was received and is in keeping
of the adjutant generals Office.
The flag is beauty, four feet
four inches by five feet six inches
in dimensions. 1t is a rich blue,
made of the finest quality of Lyon
silk, bordered with double knot
ted yellow silk fringe. In the CEN
ter of the flag is beautiful picture
of the state coat of arms.
Along with the flag a handsome
staff was received on which the flag
will be mounted by a gilt spread
eagle and with white and blue silk
cord and tassels.
The flag is similar to the one the
Columbian club presented some
time ago to the Idaho national
guard. 1t is made of the same
texture. but the national guard flag
bears the words "2nd Reg't Infantry
N. G. l." The flags were made by
M. C. Lilley & Co., of Columbus,

is due the members and the schools.
The Statesman has no reason to
anticipate that selection will not be
made upon merit, but il has in
mind the scandulous methods en-
ployed by the book men in times
past and it would warn the mem
bers of the commission and the
public against repetition of such
methods by those sent here to Sc
cure contracts with the state.
ut should be possible for this
commission to make its selections
without permitting an army of
agents to be at their elbows all the
time. These men have thousand
ways of influencing those with
whom they have to deal. In some
instances men employed at such
work use directly corrupt means
and in other cases they employ in
sidious methods to accomplish their
purpose. They were hrazen in their
efforts to reach those who had the
giving of contracts and others by
whom members might be influence
ed. With very few exceptions the
others were ready to extend many
little favors in the hope of winning
preferment. They are often lavish
entertainers and endeavor to place
persons under obligations TIC them
in that manner.
Those who have the selections
to make are judges of books, and
the offers should be made officially
and in no other manner. Private
interviews should be cut out; the
agents should be made to keep their
distance, submitting their offers and
their claims in pnblic only at the
meetings of the commission. The
members of the commission should
let them know that they must not
approach them or their friends out
side of the room where the meetings
are held-that they must keep
away and not compromise members
by intruding themselves on othei
occasions"
