BUREAUS WILL TAKE TINE
Will Not Take Up Canvass Until
First Of February

At the meeting of the promotion
bureau committee of 21, which will
be held Tuesday, a report will be
made by the committee appointed
two weeks ago to investigate the adj
Visibility of continuing the work of
the bureau.
Though the report has not been
given out, it is expected that the
decision of the committee will be
against attempting to raise new
fund at present. though recon-
mendation may be made that such
work be undertaken by the first of
newt month.
The committee was appointed to
visit those who contributed to- the
sunnort of the bureau last year, and
1t is said the general feeling has
been against renewing at present.

and the present unsettled conditions

IDAHO DEPosITARY Law

Reports from State Treasurer
Hastings on the results of the state
depositary law are ample proof OF
the wisdom of its enactment. The
law went into effect on February
IL, 1905, and the comparative state
ments for the last two years show
that the returns to the state have
been practically doubled. In 1906
the returns on interest on state de-
posits were $9,267.69, and during
the last year these have been in
creased to $1S,226.94.
The state of Idaho is now doing
business with 7S banks and the rate
of interest paid for the use of the
money is 81 per cent. This money
is well distributed throughout the
state and there is no favoritism in
the distribution. The law is work
ing smoothly and with benefit to the
people of the state. 1t is estimated
that in the next biennium the state
revenues will be augmented from
$4,000 to $4,000 from the opera
tion of the depositary law.

SPOKANE, Jan. 3.-The social

GEOGRAPHY AND THE FLEET
Sailing Of the Warships of Educa-
tional Value to Citizens

In a party of gentlemen coming
downtown yesterday the question
was asked, Where is Trinidad"
Strange to relate, not member of
the partv could locate the first port
where the American feet stopped
during this memorable cruise.
A few DAYS ago when Tom Law
sons boat was wrecked near the
Scilly isles, it was difficult to find in
this city any one outside a regular
sailor or professional scholar who
had any idea as to the location of
the sc'lly islands,
All of which leads us ND to the
suggestion that the historic cruise
OF our great battleships will afford
an admirable opportunity for the
elder citizenship to refresh itself
unon the study Of world geography,
and an even hotter onnortunitv for
the teachers OF American youth to
make practical and definite the
study OF world geogranhv in the vi
tai object lesson furnished to the
American people at the present
TIVE.
AS we read from time OF the
noints at which Admiral Evans and
our mighty feet will stop for coal
~ surrl'es. we will be astonished in
consulting the globes and geoe-a-
plies, which ought to be part OF
every cultured home, TO find how
Far from our conceptions are the
geographical facts of location.
How admirable, therefore, and
how interesting an exercise fol
theae winter evenings at home, and
for the geographical classes in this
schools. If, step by step, stop by
stop, we should follow the fleet o.
our country and learn the relativ'
locat on of the various points al
which 1t touches, the course it fol
lows, the great ports it salutes anC
their relation in longitude and lati
tude to the city in which we live
. How many people, for instance, ar,
aware of the fact that by the line
of sailing longitude, New York cit,
is on the same line as the western
/. not the eastern, coast of Soutl
4 America? How few people realiZ
: that a geographical plumb-lin
dropped from Washington south

Good resolutions that have not al

vince them hat the real value Of their
