consideration of the amendment grant
ing suffrage to women, which is to be
voted on in this state in November,

THE REIGN OF JESUS

la predicting the total obscura
ton of the memory of Jesus oil
Nazareth in a billion years from
this time, the professor of the phil
osophy of religion at the University
of Chicago takes refuge behind a
very ample margin agains, the YER
ihcation or the REPUTATION of his
prophecy. One would scarcely
have expected forecast of that
character from an institution OF
learning under the especial patron
age of so godly a man as John d.
Rockefeller. Still. almost any kind
of a "bet" goes at this great aca-
demic museum.
Humanity, it is true, is variable
in its impulses and beliefs, and a
billion years. even as time flies IN
this world. is quite an extended
period. But, somehow, the doc
trines and principles OF Jesus and
the influence of His personality in
the world seem to be extraordinary

Deer Flat Rerervoir

Robert Bailey of Sweet. who
spent last week visiting friends in
Boise valley, returned home Tues
day. In the course of his travels
he visited the government reservoir
at Deer Flat and gives his impress
sions of that great work. He
writes:
"There is now about "a feet OF
water in the deep places and it will
have to raise ~ feet before it can
pour through the headgates. The
water now covers 1000 acres and is
fast becoming a fine lake. John
Bailey, the superintendent of the
works, is putting in row boats anu
will soon have a gasoline yacht
for pleasure seekers. The lake is
covered with ducks and there is
also quite a flock of swans. The
water will be stocked with fish.
"This reservoir is 40P feet wide
at the base, 20 feet OH top, 70 feet
high and three-fourths of mile
long. The shore line will be %
miles in extent

EMMETT IS GROWING.

The fact that there is no bushes

that no house that is comforta ",

the other indicates that Emmett is
moving along at a Satisfactory
gait. Many modern and pretty
houses are being erected and at
least two new business buildings
are to be erected this spring
There is work for every man in
town at good wages.
The Fruit Growers association
promises to be a large factor in
spreading the fame of Emmett fruit
throughout the country, and the
brands of the Emmett canning fac
tory will soon become known as
being the best there is to be had I'M
canned goods.
But what Emmett needs most is
the Boise Inter-urban railroad and
the Emmett people should at
once start campaign having for
its object the building of that line
this summer. The shipments of
the fruit association and the can
ming factory will run into the hun
dreds Of carloads, which, together
with the large tonnage received by
the merchants. will create freight
traffic that cannot but be a strong
inducement for the building of the
interurban into this city.

Mr.. TAFT FOR A LOWER COST OF
LIVING

President Taft's demand fer tar.
III revision is a demand for tariff
reduction. And the President also
interprets the Republican platform
as promising downward revision.
Therefore, while he mentions only
two articles tea and coffee-he
protests in a general way that the
new tariff law must not put the
burdens of taxation on the necessi
ties of life. And this stand by the
President AT this particular time is
a hopeful reinsurance. 1t gives
promise that such influence as the
administration may be able to bring
to bear on Congress will be exer-
cised on behalf of the people.
Mr.. Taft's position. whether
from the standpoint of an econo-
mist. statesman or a Republican,
Is absolutely sound. Under the
American system the tariff has
three effects on the revenues, on
the industries and on the consum-
ers. The cost of living has adj.
vanced SO rapidly and-has reached
such an excessive scale that the
country demands that the consum-
ers be given frst consideration in
the new tariff, just as the indus.
tries have had first consideration
heretofore, aud especially since the
industries have outgrown to a very
large extent even the excuse of
high protection, while the cost of
living has risen intolerably. The
small margin of the average mans
saving has decreased i'll proportion
to the increase in the protected in
terests' profits,
The general demand for tariff
revision is demand for a lower
cost of living and there is absolute
ly no other way to interpret this
demand.
As for the revenues, the people
know that there are various equit-
able and effective ways to increase
the revenues without depressing
the poor and those of moderate in
comes. The issue lies between the
trusts and the people. The people
want a square deal and Mr.. Taft |
has declared himself in favor of |
giving them what they ask for.

ob,so, to Strong Medicine.

Many people object to taking the
strong medicine usually prescribed
by physicians for rheumatism. There
is no need of internal treatment in
any case of muscular or chronic
rheumatism, and more than nine out
of every ten cases of the disease are
of one or the other of these varie-
ties. When there is no fever and
little Gf any swelling, you may
know that it is only necessary to ar-
