A National Retreat for Mothers.

A National Retreat for Mothers.
Just a word from the other
side of the man-made laws: ]
should like TO ask why there is
not a national holiday set apart
for decorating mothers graves? :?
We can not get along very wei
without mothers; why not honor
them?. Mothers have done more
for their country and risked their
lives oftener than have soldiers.
Men have war about once in a
generation; then they have to
be pensioned and pampered ever
after. Mothers go into life's
battles yearly, not knowing
which one will be cut down or
crippled for life, with no protec-
tion or Notifications to protect
them.
Life is just as sweet to moth
ers as it is to soldiers. You will say
! it woman's sphere, 'natur-
al" etc. 1t is also soldiers
sphere. That is why soldiers
have the ballot, pensions, eX-
emption from taxes, most of the
offices in the government, their
graves decorated ever afterl
What do the mothers get!
60 through the country aud
get statistics and see how many
mothers have given up their
lives, or are crippled for life, or
have lost their health for ever
not once in a generation, but
every year.
Perhaps it would not do to
give our mothers pensions, as
there would be too many men
ready to live off themj but there
should be q national retreat for
mothers where they can go after
the age OF fifty years, non-com-
pulsory, where they can do as
they like and try to enjoy them
selves in their own way, "a ma
tional mothers retreat where
our broken-down, tired and Grip
pied mothers can rest; not a
county poor farm where they
have to continue in slavery, but
a place of rest, rest in every
senseof the word. "-EX.
The above we clip from the
Farm Journal" being an article
sent them by Mrs. D. nj. Sawyer
of Plymouth, N. H. We would
surely like to see the article pub
lished in every paper in the
country, read and favorably
commented upon by every cler-
gyman throughout our land,
till all the people of this country
and the whole world, as for that
matter, show the love, honor, and
respect that is due to our MOTH
el.s in life or death. Mrs. Saw
YET has certainly struck resPon-
,sive chord in every 5rue mans
:heart and we most sincerely
trust that before she passes
away, Congress may order built,
a National Retreat for Moth
ers' " and that National Holi-
day be set apart for decorating

The Big Exhibit Promises to be Lar
ger than Ever this Year.
The Canyon county fair of this
year promises to far eclipse any of
it's predecessors, and it has always
been counted on as outstripping all
competitors in the intermountain
country. A new building has been
added to the handsome group on the
10 feet which supplies needed room
for the exhibits that are already
booked. The city water mains have
been extended to the grounds and
the water piped to convenient points.
The track has been put in first class
condition and the decoration of the
interior of the buildings is now we'll
under way. The Oregon Short Line
has granted reduced rate of two
cents a mile from all points between
Mountainhome and Huntington dur
ing the continuance of the fair.
Payette, Emmett and perhaps Nam
pa, will bring their local band to
head their delegations on the days
set apart for them, while all the
other towns in the contiguous terri
tory will be generously represented.

BATES READY FOR THE SHIT

while In Caldwell Wednesday Mr.
M. A. Bates OF the Parma Herald
was interviewed by the representa-
tive of the Boise Statesman. In his
interview Mr.. Bates said in response
TO a question as to whether he had
been notified of the libel suit to be
Instituted by o. v. Bailey:

as soon as possible, and the court ia
the proper place to decide the mat
ter. In all fairness to Mr. Badlev q
decision In this particular case
should be reached before the coming
election in order that those who de-
sire to support Mr.. Bailey can do so
with full knowledge of the facts.

Ing the present term of court, This
l believe is all that I can do. It is
now up to Mr.. Bailey to make his
pluh good. But will he do it?"
That is the way we like to hear
man talk. If Mr.. Bates knows
what he is talking about he is now
ready for trial. 1t is clearly up to
Mr.. Bailey to fetch on his suit. He
mas gone too far to quit now. HA

amounts to $3.50 per year. Now
Eadley was not trying to defraud
the city. He had simply forgotten
ABOUT the dog and the amount was
only two-fifty. We mention this IN

How often do you eat this fooda

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection of
the foods you eat
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but if the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.
AS matter of fact Great Britain
and Europe come to us for tremendous
quantities of Quaker Oats because it
represents to them perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
liness and purity, of all oatmeals.
Americans should eat more Quaker
Oats; the results would soon show
themselves in improved conditions Of
health and strength. 55

The Statehood Bills.

With the introduction of the New
Mexico and Arizona statehood bills in
the senate the first step has been
taken toward doing justice to these
rich and enterprising territories.
There would seem to be at this time
no sound and legitimate reason for in
terfering with the manifest right of
these territories 20 become part of the
union. The Republican party spon-
sored their admission in its last plat
form and the president has recon-
mended it in unmistakable terms
through his recent message
1t is up to the Republican majority
in congress to see that justice is done
and the pledge of the party fulfilled.
There has been some argument on
the part of extreme partisans that if
Arizona and New Mexico were granted
statehood they might send Democratic
representatives 10 congress. Such a
petty, unstatesmanlibe attitude cannot
be too roundiy condemned.
As if politics had right to be heard
in a matter of simple national justice?
1t will not be the least memorable
fact connected with the Taft admins
tration it, during its course, the United
States are rounded out into one com.
pleto, homogeneous whole.
