Mamie glanced out of doors; the

The President came here to dedicate the

when Mr.. Taft reached the building at d

saw of the dedication: AT one end OF the

been erected. Some one mounted this plat
form, but only those who were I'm the

NEW YORK. November 13-One OF the

! terday was that by Rabbi Abraham
Simon of Washington on the instruction
Of the blind. deaf mutes and delinquents.
OF the 1,6O0 deaf mutes in the country.

OF the $1,000 insane persons in New

also 40 out of 1900 epileptics in the
Craig colony.
The report voiced complaint that the
church fails TO identify itself with the
increasing number of Jewish working
men, and quoted an interview with Sam

organization is anti-religiOus in method
or purpose. but declares that the churches

The conference was thrown into a storm
Of confusion and dispute by an assertion
Of Rabbi Kaufman Kohler, the aged presi-
dent of the Hebrew Union College. the
training college Of the reform Jewish
movement I'm America, that the Bible is
not the text book of Judaism. and that
one who does not believe In the Bible as
such is better Jew than he who does
believe in 1t.
Immediately there was storm Of pro-
test from many rabbis. one OF whom de-
clared that the Talmud. Midrash and now
finally the Bible had been stamped as
not the word of God, and that he was
unable to find out from the deliberations
Of the conference what really was the
authoritative word. and, indeed, what
was the meaning OF reform Judaism.
The tumult. which was as brief as II
WIS noisy. was finally stilled by Rabbi
David PhilipsOn, president of the con-
ference. who explained that DR.. kohler
had meant that not only the Bible but
everything brought forth throughout the
ages by Jewish tradition was the Torah
or Jewish law. This explanation DR..
Kohler agreed to, explaining that he had
meant only the DecaiOgue in his asser-
ton.

WANT MORE BEETS.

A meeting has recently been
held in Nampa for thepurpose of
seeing what can be done in the
way of insuring the Sugar Beet
Company a larger amount of
beets being grown, to supply the
factory at that point. 1t seems
to US that instead of trying to
induce the poor rancher to prom
Use to furnish more beets to the
rich foreign corporation at star
walton prices, it would be better
to try and get the rich tariff pro-
tected foreign corporation to
pay the poor producer a living
price for the product. At the
price now paid it is "nip and
tuck" for the farmer to come out
even so that he can pay for the
labor necessary for the proper
cultivation of thecrop. Farmers
are like any other class of pro-
sducers or business men, and will
raise the produce that brings in
the most money at the least ex-
pense, and would grow sugar
beets if the company would pay
"a fair price for the product.
They may beslow to "catch on"
and work for several years rails
ing sugar beets and other pro-
'duce at a loss, but they finally
realize that the rich foreign cor
poration is getting all the cream.
The old saying is, "The proof of
the puddin' is the ATTN of it. !"
And the Snake river rancher has
been eating this sugar beet pud-
ding and has found that at the
present price per ton it is not to
his liking.
