VOICE OF THE PRESS

w. T. Duncan left Monday to 60
out to his big ranch on Champagne
FLATS, but before leaving he inform
ed the Republican Writer that he
wAs going to try to slay deer next
week to send down to the Press
Meeting. "Of course" he said, 81

60 out with gun--a man Is more
apt to see game when he leaves the
gun at home--,but 1t was thru the
press that Champagne Flats were
trot to my attention, and / would
like to have the editors enjoy a roast
zenison from there as an acknowl-
edgement from me. Anyhow / am

Plan OF Adjustable Gate.

The gate pepper. is made like any
other one. but the hinge at the top OF
the post is made to slide up and down
on rod. The lower hinge has the
choice of two positions. When there
is foot of snow on the ground, the
gate is raised, placing this hinge on
the upper position, which allows the
gate to swing free of the ground and
the snow.

Fstten Them Up.-Put the old hens
in the iattening pen as early in the
.iall as possible. 1T is not probable
that they will lay much during the fall
and the earlier they are gotten out OF
the way the more profitable it will be
for the keeper and the more healthy
for the birds that are to make up the
breeding stock next year. The next
years stock need the room.

H. X. Silversmith is just making
his annual tour of eastern Idaho to
write up the state and solicit adver-
Using for the Holiday edition Of The
Desert News. Editors OF Idaho pap
ers have expressed their disapproval
Of the liberal patronage given this
firm from another state, because they
find it difficult to get advertisements
for their own papers after The News
has made it's canvass, and the result
Is that they frequently give up pub
fishing any Holiday Number at home.
This puts the local paper in bad light
which is not generally understood,
and helps along the work of building
up Utah paper at the expense of
Idaho. People whose trade is purely
local, such as :grocers and clothiers
are found among those who make
contracts with the Desert News or
The Salt Lake Tribune, and they Of
ten inform the local newspaper man
that they are losing money on ad-
vertising. A Blackfoot Milliner who
has always been on the best of terms
with the local press, is advertising in
paper published at Caldwedd, 230
miles away. These things indicate
on of two things,--the local press
does not do its full duty, or the adj
vertisers do not exercise good judge
ment. Mr.. Silverton says he finds
people very loyal to their home pap
ers in this, that they turn him down
at first. but that he talks them into
It," When the local man talks them
into It," they come to look upon him
as a bore, and he has to choose be-
tween boring people and going with
out business.

Secretary ]. w. Jones of The Rig
by Star writes that everything is look
ing right for good meeting, and
that his people expect to come down
the branch" TO- Blackfoot on Sunday
morning. He threatens the Short
Line with all sorts of things If they
do not operate their trains on, time
at that date. He asks also, that The
Republican Office hurry its work on
the map of the ten eastern counties
of Idaho, showing the location of
The Northwestern thru Idaho, and
the electric lines from Idaho Falls
and American Falls. He says it would
be fine thing to print this map in
the booster supplement" SO all the
papers can present 1t to their readers
the same day. In answer to this we
beg to state that such was the origi-
nal plan, and will be carried out. -.

Ex-senator Dubois has started his
new paper called the Scimitar. 1t is
issued at Boise on Saturday, and the
first number is now in the hands of
the critical observer. 1t is in form
like Goodwins Weekly, and what
Judge Goodwin is to Utah, Dubois
will probobly be to Idaho. Both are
decidedly anti-Mormon, and present
very decided views in what they
touch upon. The Scimitar devotes
space to matters of national import
ance, such as irrigation, forestry etc,
and will doubtless be leading light
in many important matters. 1t is for
tunate for Idaho that she has this ad-
dition to her editorial timber, for Du-
bois has seen much of the world, and
national life, and his work thru the
the press should have wide attention.

man on whom so much depended and who
would have guarded him as precious jewel of
untold worth. He protested at first, and then,
like one waking from dream and suddenly
conscious of a great WEAKNESS, made no OBJ

looked like workman put his hat upon his

Synopsis of Preceding Chapters

A MOST astounding apathy prevailed in the
United States when this country was threat
ened with war with Japan Although the conflict
had been impending for several weeks, and the
viously getting ready to make belgerent move,
the Government had complacently and suplnely
gone It's way even stopping work on Its fortlhca
tons in the Philippines; and indeed. when war was
finally declared and Japanese warshps appeared off
Manila the Stars and Stripes lowered from the
fort and the white flag of surrender up, notwith
standing that not shot had been fired. The same
procedure was followed at Hawaii.
The administration replied with Indifference and
evasion to all requests from the press and foreign
climax of its amazing action ordered all the prin-
cipal warships in the Pacific to report at once to
Baltimore, and then announced mysteriously that
there probably would not be any fighting on land.
Guy Hitler, secretary of the British Embassy at
Washington, was ordered to London to lay before
in love with Norma Roberts. daughter of "Old
Bill" Roberts. an eccentric inventor who main
tanned close relations with the Government.
Upon the outbreak of hostilities, Norma. to whose
ability her father said had been due the perfection
of his inventions, started secret trip to Florida
in company with several of the highest officials of
the United States navy.
The Government suddenly issued call for vol
unteers, and established line of accommodation

croaking of frogs. Swinging here and there in
cratic circles. like fairies of the jungle carrying
lighted lanterns, went the ire1ies on aimless
journeyings, not few but many thousands of
them, as if in wild dance of curiosity, looking
through the night to learn what manner of
things these were that had come upon them SO
suddenly, ripped away their forests, and built
strange mansions in their solitudes.
1t was not this, however, that chained her
attention. High up over this mushroom city
where all had been silent and darkening when
she went below, now cleaned myriad lights
strung as by geni of the lamp while Others
rested from their toll White, haring streaks
of brilliance thrust spearlike rays into the
gloom, illuminating below them the creation
of day. From the distance came the steady
hum of steam driven dynamos, telling with
monotonous insistence that there would be no
cessation until the last spike was driven, the
last machine set, and the last betting hung.
Into this spot Of the night began to come black
figures answering the call of the siren. On a
sudden, as if by preconcerted signal, the echoes
again awoke to the clang of hammers steel
and the hum of voices in command. Like
weird pygrnies doomed to twist their thews in
never ending effort, she saw them resume
their uncompleted task, exerting themselves
increasingly for its accomplishment.
A launch which had come alongside on some
errand was sputtering spasmodically at the
foot of the ladder below as if impatient to be
off. She boarded it, and in a few minutes a
smart young naval officer stepped into the
stern, gave curt order, and they raced away
toward the shore.
"Ah, good evening, Miss Roberts" he said
suddenly spying her. Looking for your
father. who went ashore awhile ago, presume?
m going right in his direction, and will be
glad to guide you" He seemed too busy for
further Conversation, and almost before the
boat had come to stop sprang to the single
and offered his hand.

When he had lit cigarette, he pulled few
long whiffs, and then took his stand in front of
the empty hearth, with his legs apart and his
hands stuck in his trousers pockets. l went

room in my mirror.

"Do you think" he said, this is quite fair
