Troy Had Diphtheria.

Troy has had little diphtheria scare,
resulting in the death of Mrs. Bertha
Udell Monday night. Deceased was p
years old, and leaves husband and
three babies, the oldest two years old,
and the other two pair OF twins year
old. The family came here recently
from Wawawai, Whitman county, and
have had the dread disease several
times, it breaking out anew. DIR.
Worthington was first called and pro-
nounced Mrs. Udell's case as tonsilitis.
Fearing diphtheria the family called
DIR. Olson and insisted that they had
diphtheria, as it proved. But Mrs.
Udell was too far gone for assistance
and the anti-toxine treatment was un-
availing. George Rouse, living In the
same neiehborhood, had one. case. Ills

administrated promptly. In two days
the how was able to be about. The
Bvers family was exposed and the three
families were quarantined, but no new
cases have developed and the danger II

family it is certain that the only way t(
stamp it out, once it has developed is t'

Is II Glanders2

Recently J. P. Kesley, living north Ct
Troy, discovered that one of his horses
had what appeared to be CHAMBERS, The
Moscow veternaries said the horse was
in the first stages of the disease. And
there you have it. The farmers and the
people are paying taxes for just such aid
as is needed in this case, and yet there
is not deputy state veterinary IN this
section. The state funds are all spent
in protecting the interests of the big
south Idaho stock raisers. And it is es-
timated that the total taxes for state
live stock sanitary purposes is about
$3.50 100 per annum. The law ought to
be SO amended that every qualified
veterinary in the state would be deputy
with power to act, and thus protect the
owners of stock from infected stock.
Why does Latah receive no aid? Who
knows?

A Great Country.

There is no finer country on earth
Than the Potlatch. The News editor
has, during October, travelled over this
Great district, and came home more than
ever convinced that we are living in
finest land ever seen. Big Bear ridge is
an empire, beautiful beyond compari-
son. and rich in soil and climate. Texas
ridqe and the ridge beyond are no less
blessed, while across the canyon around
Park is a paradise. The climate through
ont the Potlatch is mild and warm,
many sections having no frost, and lit
lie winter. Beans, tomatoes and corn
svsys mature, and some have raised
tobacco and sugar cane. These ridges
are wspotted here and there with timber,
sMhe surface of the land is compara-
dvylevel. Fine orchards are seen on
every hand, while fine school houses and
cmmodious churches dot the land. The
News expects to have much to say in
succeeding issues about the Potlatch
country, and particularly about the
roads, or, more properly, lack OF roads
We are going to howl until eastern La
tab county gets square deal, something
It has never so far had.

The Young Mems Hebrew Assocla-
ton of Cleveland, Ohio. held meet
ing last week in which the members
decided not to patroniZe thcateis
where the Jew is caricatured. The
association rightly believes that anti
Semtism is kept ablaze by the ridicule
keaped upon the Jew by the stage. The
surprising part of the whole business
is that many of these theaters are con-
trolled by so-called Jews. who appear
to have forgotten every duty toward
the Jew and Judaism and to care for
nothing except the box office receipts.
There is Il vaudeville theater in Den
yer owned by Jews which seems to de-
light in Offering its patrons the stage

The Jews of this city can give "A
substantial rebuke to the managers of
this theater by remaining away from
it so long as they persist in their course
of ridiculing the Jew. The Y. Nj. II.

the following resolutions:

"The Hebrew Comedian"

Whereas. 1t is alleged, and there is
a widespread feeling prevalent
through the city, that it is true that
much cause for an anti-.Jewish feeling
among some of our Gentle neighbors
is due to the fact that the so-cailed
Hebrew comedian pictures the char
acteristics of the Jewish people in =
false light.
"Therefore. BE it known that the
Young Mems Hebrew Association is
decidedly opposed to this so-called
Hebrew COMEDIAN and that we
pledge ourselves to refuse to patron
ize any theater whatsoever, that will
encourage this so-called Hebrew com
edian' by employing him.
. ''Be it further requested that this
resolution be sent to every theatrical
manager and to the newspapers of
this city.
''Let it also be known that we urge
upon every child of Israel to aid us in
saving the Jewish name from being
besmirched by these so-called come
dians,' by refusing to patronize the
theaters that employ these detriments
to civilization.

ground of secret information, recon-
mended one of the geographical COM
mission for prior investigation.
This territory, though one of the
two best for our purpose yet left in
the whole world, is not without its
drawbacks and difficulties. But
territory without drawbacks and diff
culties there never was since Adam
was expelled from Eden and the ex-
pulsion emigration began. Palestine,
you will remember, was adversely re-
ported upon by the original Zionist
commissioners. though fortunately
Caleb and Joshua presented minor
ity report. Anybody who landed in
London on foggy day would refuse
England. You know what happened
with East Africa-how the Chris
tians of that country united with the
Iionists and anti-Zionists of England
to stamp upon our ideas Nor are our
diplomatic difficulties lessened by the
fact that this territory is so much
more desirable than East Africa. I
am perhaps already imperiling the
chance of its acquisition in telling you
that it lies in that same continent Of
Africa from which. according to the
proverb, there comes always some.
thing new. But our people are such
unbelieving Jews that they require
even diplomacy to be carried on in
public. And so--unless I am to be
twitted again with the moon-I must
risk telling even little more.
In July. 1903. two years before the
Ito was born. at period when | had
been putting into shape the dismal re-
port of the Zionist commission which
had investigated the Sinai Peninsula.
| was asked by the late DR.. HerZl to
summon small Zionist council to
discuss the idea of acquiring Morocco
for Jewish colonization. That land
was much better than Sinai. he said.
and it was country in which the
powers-he prophetically declared
would sooner or later intervene. The
idea struck me as rather fantastic,
though it was an audacious concep-
tion to make the Jew dominant Just
where he was most dOwntrodden. But
the more / have pOndered since Dr.
Herzl's suggestion, the more | have
convinced myself that in spirit. not in
form. it was political inspiration.
and that one of the best fields. if not
the best field. for Jewish colonization
lies in North Africa Here. in this
vast. half-known. half-popuIated. half
governed region, largely temperate
and nowhere tropical, fertile i'm soil.
supplied with a commercial channel
through which the half-developed or
half -decayed ports of the Mediterra-
mean. provided with a nucleus of jew
ish population. and even Jewish agri-
cultural population. within easy ac-
cess of Russia and Roumania. the
chief centers of persecution-here,
surely. somewhere or other IN this spa.
cious sunland. place of Jewish
refuge should be found. All around,
dumbly eloquent of mis-government
and neglect and the chances of his
tory. lie the ruins of great cities and
ancient civilizations.
I have myself sailed past the dark
gray mound which marks the site of
Carthage, once the mighty rival of
