The setting of the local option
election for August 25th may
have been a good move politically
but it lacks a great deal of being
a square deal for the farmers of
Idaho county as they will be
busily engaged in the harvest
fields at that time and will be
unable to spare the time neces-
sary to go to the polls and vote.
Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1909-08-13

Since returning from our trip
we notice that the local option
question has assumed consider
BILE proportions in the past few
weeks. 1t was being talked to
some extent when we left about
a month ago while now it seems
to be the principal topic of con-
versation on all sides. The "dry"
forces have organized a regular
campaign and their speakers are
delivering speeches at all points
in the county, while dry" liter
ature is being scattered broad
cast over the county through the
U. S. mail. The wet" forces
have apparently failed so far to
do any opposition work and it
would appear to the casual OBJ
server that the dry" forces will
be able to win in a walk. This,
however, cannot be determined
until the votes are counted a
week from next Wednesday.
Arguments of all kinds can be
heard on each side of the ques-
ton and some startling state
ments are being made both for
and against local option. The
sole question for the voter to de-
eide, however, is whether local
option will control the liquor
traffic or not. This is the vital
question, all statements to the
contrary Notwithstanding. If
local option or prohibition would
do away entirely with the manu-
facture or consumption of liquor
we venture to say that fully
ninety per cent of the people of
our country would vote for it
without question. So long as
liquor is manufactured, however,
it will be consumed and the ques-
ton confronting the voters of
Idaho county today is whether it
can be controlled better under
local option than under the pres
ent saloon system.
One thing the local option
forces must not lose sight of. If
they are successful at the polls
their work is by no means finish
ed. They cannot sit back and
expect the law to enforce itself,
because it will not doit. Neither
can they expect those who were
against local option to see that
the law is operative. One thing
that has brought the liquor ques-
ton to its present standpoint is
because the citizens have failed
in their duty in seeing that the
liquor laws were enforced. All
kinds of laws regulating the
liquor traffic have been passed,
but few of them have been en-
forced. If local option is voted
it must be enforced-else it is
worse than useless. Under it
"bootlegging" in all it's guises
must be kept down.
If it is a question of bootleg
ging" or licensed saloons, the
latter is by far the lesser evil of,
the two. &,
1t is up to the voter to decide! 4
Choose ye, and be willing to back
up your ballot. n

Ex-Gov. Folk Predicts Pan-American
Nation.

That the whole of the American
continent will eventually become one
great republic under the government
of what is now the United States, is
the prediction made by Former Gov
ernor Folk in a recent conversation.
Governor Folk declared that n clash
between the United States and Cana
da Is inevitable, and that it will come
In the not distant future is his belief.
The great influx of Americans in the
grain fields and lumber region of
southwest Canada, each CARRYING with
him his natural allegiance to the
United States, is the leaven which he
thinks eventually must develop the
clash between the United States and
her sister country on the north. The
situation in Mexico also offers food
for serious thought, he admitted. The
natural antagonism of the Mexicans
to the American mining interests in
that country, which has been kept un-
der by President Diaz, he thinks, will
break out afresh at the death of the
Mexican president.

oble Red Men Vanishing.

AS the buffalo vanishes from the
great Western plains. so is the red
man gradually disappearing through
the ravages of tuberculosis. To save
the Indian race from extinction by
this dread disease and yet lead it in
to the ways of the white man, is the
great task which officials of the bu-
reau Of Indian affairs has under
taken.
There will be concerted effort on
the part of all connected with the
Indian service for the removal of the
causes of tuberculosis, for education
In the measure of prevention and for
systematizing the care and segrega-
tion of patients afflicted with this
diease.
About quarter of century ago
when the white men undertook to civ
llize The Indian, tuberculosis was an
almost unknown disease among that
race. Gradually the disease made its
appearance until today the Indians
are dying off at the rate of approx
mately thousand per annum. None
seem to be so susceptible to the on
slaughts of tuberculosis as the Souix
Indians in South Dekota. Only last
year nearly one thousand members;
of this tribe were afflicted with the
disease.

It is also fin it's most persuasive, enduring and 1divinest form.
 Epistles of Christ, every believer should so live that when the world reads him it will find it was reading Jesus Christ. Can you trace the di- vine hand in your life? Are you a living epistle? Or are you an epistle of idleness, of delay. of gloom?
 At the afternoon service Rev. Mckay gave a timely discourse upon the first chapter of Ephesians.
 The song service at o'clock was the best of the meeting. The text for the evening was from Matt, 26:22: Lord is it ?''
 The text tonight is the most personal that could be brought to an audience like this. Lord, is it I?" The ques- tion came because Jesus had said one of you shall betray me.
 Suppose I should say to this audi ence. One of you will betray your Lord, and could know, at once would come the question. Lord. is it I?" But let us see. Betray-yes. by living nearer the world than Jesus Christ. By be- ing more lo.-al in business than in the church.

Final Try-out on Tuesday Evening
 In an item yesterday morning con- corning the Elks and the Indian school band jocular remark was made concerning the necessity of union cards for the Phoenix athletes who are also going to the Los 1 Angeles show with the expectation of cleaning up things. That the joke may not be misunderstood it is fur i ther explained that the athletes, anna teurs though they are do have to gain a certain recognition by registration, but that has already been attended to and everything is in apple pie order.

The association moreover has agreed to furnish transportation and hotel expenses for the men and their trainer, John F.

Harry Groves, the 100 yard man. will have his final try-out at the fair grounds Tuesday evening at 6:45 and the occasion will afford little sport for others who feel that they can run some or who desire to see Grove sprint.

Ed Luke. has all ready entered himself as a pacemaker with a handicap credit of ten yards and any others may get in who want to make the race interesting.
