TRY TO COMBINE
THE G. A. R. POSTS

A movement is on foot TO try to CONSOLE
date the Grand Army Posts Of this city
and the matter was discussed by smyth
Post at its meeting on Monday night but
no definite action was taken. There are
three posts of white veterans in this city,
they being General Thomas A. symth
Post, Admiral S. L. dupont Post ana
General Phil Sheridan Post.
Those urging consolidation argue that
the membership OF the posts is being de-
pleted by death from year TO year and Il
would be much easier TO maintain one
post with a large membership than three
seperate organizations with diminishing
membership.
On the other hand the veterans who are
opposed to consolidation point with pride
I, their own organizations they have
maintained for many years. and aside
from that the members Of each post
would want a consolidated post named for
their organization, and probably would
be unable TO agree on a name.
General Sumner Post is composed OF
colored veterans. but that post Is not in
cluded i'm the suggested plan for a mer-
ger.

CzAR BACK OF
PERSIAN STIR

LONDON. Nov. 1S-A culminatine
step in Russia's plan for a Persian
land grab is seen to-day throughout
Europe in the refusal OF the Shah last
evening to revive the Persian constitu
tion or 10 summon Parliament except
under the impossible guarantee from,
tho foreign Diplomats at Teheran that
they will guard the safety Of himself
and the throne.
This decision by the Shah has al
ready Drecipitated outbreaks in many
parts of Persia and the situation, it is
expected. will soon grow so threatins
chat Russia will "attempt to restore
order" Once in. there is small chance
of the Gar ever voluntarily removins
his authority over Persia.
While no official statement will be
made by the English fore.gn office,
there is no doubt among the members
that Russia is planning the whole
Persian movement and that the Shah
is either in connivance with the Rus.
sian foreign Office or is its dupe.
Russa has long been planning a
domestic situation in Persia that woulu
warrant her intervention and she is be-
lieved to be behind the Shah's refusal
TO satisfy the constitutional yearnine
Of his people, knowing that such will
plunge the country into the most violen'
disorders.
Foreign Minister Iswolsky opposes
the land grab on the ground that Rus
sia is already overburdened with gov
ernmental duties and domestic prob.
lens The military party is domin-
ant. however. and will undoubtedly win
out.
The attitude of England and Ger
many toward the Car sbold schemes
is an1iously awaited.

Sunshine and Shadows.

The Blackfoot Republican, edited by Byrd Trego,
takes the public into his confidence in his last weeks
issue, by publishing letters from his subscribers
In these letters he gives glimpse to the reading
public, of the sunshine and the shadows which
the path of the newspaper man. as he g1ides along in
the every day routine of business. The Scimitar
hopes that the Republican will receive more sunshine
than shadows. Here is the article
We often receive letters and statements from sub
scrbers showing what they think of the matter pub
1shed III The Republican, and the following are some
OF the contrasts that came to the same day:
Please give credit for the ACCOMPANYING re-
mlttance and discontinue my paper when the time is
out There is very little in it that I care for What
want IS current news. News of the big storms and
accidents and other things that happen to people all
over the country.
Another wish to congratulate YOU on the high
standard maintained IN your paper. 1t is pleasure

trashy news to the background

Farmers Organize.

The Caldwell Tribune gives the following account
OF meeting in that city of grange masters repre-
senting eight oranges in Canyon county:
There will be a meeting of the grange masters
of this district today at 10 80 for the purpose of
organizing a county or district grange There are
now eight oranges in Canyon county, and there will
probably be several more organized in the near
future.
Caldwell grange held very interesting meeting
in Masonic Hall Tuesday night The next meeting
there will be some literary exercises that will be
interesting we'll as instructive The meetings
for the present will be held in the Masonic Hail.
Caldwell Tribune.
This is good sign Wage earners organize for
mutual protection. 1t is understood that most bust
ness men cooperate in prices they get for their
goods 1t is altogether proper that all lines of trade
should be represented by organizations which would
deal fairly with the public, on which they are de-
pendent.
Why should the farmer be the exception to the
rule? He is a producer of the highest order He
works as hard and plans much with his work as
any OF the others. Cooperative measures should be
adopted by him and his work systematzed that there
by life might be more agreeable to him. Their CO.
operative meetings will be helpful in very many
ways and The Scmitar is pleased to note the organ
1zatlon of the grange among the farming COMMUNE
ties of Idaho May their efforts be harmonious and
productive of great good to the individual farmer of
the state.
