Whether the investigation into the
alleged waste of money In the
new capitol construction develops
such condition or not the fact re-
mains that some one is guilty OF plan
ming building ON scale much more
expensive than the people were lead
to believe when the matter was before
the legislature two years ago. Then
1t was to be 5000. 900 building, now
tits said that more than $4,000, 900
will be necessary to complete II. II
this Is true Il Is time the people
should be taken into the deal and be
given something to say. The state Is
supposed to be erecting a building for
its use rather than an architectural
monument for Boise. II begins to
look like case OF graft.

These
are the words
used by the great

emanClpatOr In MS Az
nous speech, delivered at his old home to
his friends and neighbors at Springfield, Ill.
Recalling what little opportunity he had in
his early youth to get an education, and look
ing back to the days when he walked miles
and miles for a book flor he then owned none
of his own, Abraham Lincoln pleaded with
the rural and village people, his old friends
and associates to give their children better
chance-a chance to fight the battles of life
successfully.
SURELY YOU want 60 give your boys and RFls better
chance not necessarily Solege education but better STILL
home education. 1t is not always the school that gives
education: give this opportunity better
your family right in your home. Good books-vaIuabe
books. OH how Lincoln cherished these.
What would Lincoln have said had you asked his advice
on buying great History of the World entertaining
and educational Library for your home "The Library Of
Universal History and especially if offered it at
less than half of the regular price and easy erms1

PULSE COUNTING WATCH.

tsvies Indicates Exact Number Of
Beats Per Minute.
A new watch has been invented for
the use Of physicians and nurses in
counting the pulse, says the Scientific
American. The watch indicates with
out mental calculation the number Of
beats Of the pulse In a minute. 1t op-
crates on the principle Of a stop watch.
By pressing the push button a large
second hand is set In motion, and the
counting Of the quotations begins. At
the twentieth puIsation the motion Of
the hand II stopped by another pres
sure Of the push button. The dial ae-
curately indicates the exact number
Of pulsations per minute. A third
pressure on the push button brings the
hand back to the starting point
The use Of this instrument does
away with the necessity Of observing
the progress of the watch while TAX
ing the pulse and In addition Insures
an absolutely correct record The in
strument IL also a chronographIc count
e., facilitating the making of observa-
tons, which are automatically record
cd in minutes, seconds and fifths of

II records minutes from o to 30. The
large hand records seconds and fifths
Of second.

PosTAL sAVINGs BANKs.

The postal savings bank bill now
before congress is a very alluring
piece Of legislation and on the sur
face has many attractive features, but
has II place In our form OF govern
ment7 That is the important ques-
ton. In European governments where
the reigning sovereign exercises a pa
ternal care over his subjects It may
be a good means OF saving the earn
ings OF his people and caring for
them; or In socIaIistic government
we see where It would very properly
become a part of the Official duty to
engage In the banking business and
take care of the peoples money, but
II the latter form Of government, why
not extend that paternalIsm to all
branches Of business and become the
grocer. the butcher, the manufact-
or and the supervisor OF all private
business as conducted under present
conditions? Is there any difference
between the government engaging in
the banking business and taking up
any other liner We see none.
Laws to regulate banks and punish
the officials who violate them should
DO stringent enough to insure safety
10 the depositors. and there would be
no valid objection to requiring the
creation OF guarantee fund In cash
or securities sufficient to protect the
deposition and make him feel safe In
times OF panic, but II seems beyond
the function OF government to engage
In the business of banking. 1t IL con.
trary to the principles OF republic
and hnds a place only in the two
forms OF government mentioned
above. Banking cannot be cIassed as
q public utility any more than other
branches Of private business. and the
very moment that the congress passes
the postal savings bank bill that mo-
ment It opens the doors TO a revoIu-
ton In our government that may lead
TO a pure soeialistlc form, with Its
subdivisions Of community interests
and ultimate decay. This legislation
will be f1F-reaching In It's effect and
- dangerous in many ways.
Senator Hepburn has consistently
opposed this class OF legislation and
recently delivered telling speech
against the postal savings bank bill.

impracticability OF Its provisions in
