THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

As everyone knows, G. W. Post OF
Battle Creek, Michigan. is not only a
maker of breakfast foods, but he is a
strong individual who be!iCvsc that 10
trades-uniOnS are a menace to the lib.
erty of the country.
Believing this, and being a natural
born scrapper for the right, as he
sees it, Post, for several years past,
has been engaged in a ceaseless war
fare agains: The Labor Trust as he
likes to call It.
Not being able to secure free and
untrammeled expression of his Opin-
ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages Of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose, just as he is accustomed to
for the telling of his Postum story"
and he has thus spent hundreds Of
thousands OF dollars in %denOuncing
trades-unionism.
AS a result of Posts activities the
people now know a whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
~honeycombed with graft, how they Oh
StruCt the development of legitimate
business, curtail labOr's output, hold
up manufacturers, graft upon their own
membership, and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades.
unionists, and intensely.
He employs no union labor, so they
can not call out his men, and he deties
their efforts at boycotting his products.
The latest means of "getting' Post is
the widespread publication Of the story
that a car which was recently wrecked
IN transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells. which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek.
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald OF the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, who, it is
said, stated it publicly, as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fitz-
gerald the lie direct. He dcnOunces
Fitzgerald's statement as a deliberate
,alsehOOd, an underhanded and coward
ly attempt to injure his business, hav-
ing not the slightest basis in fact. AS
such an effort it must be regarded. 1t
is significant that this statement about
the peanut shells" is being given wide
newspaper publicity. In the patent
inside of an eastern country paper |
find it, and the inference naturally is
that labor-unionites are insidiously
spreading this lie.
An institution Tor q mani which
will resort to moral intimidation and
to physical force, that will destroy ma
chinery and burn buildings, that will
main and kill if necessary to effect its
ends, naturally would not hesitate to
spread falsehood for the same pur-
poses.
We admire Post. While We have no
| enmity toward labor unions, so long rs
| they are conducted in an honest. live
| and-let-live' kind of a way, We have had
enough of the tarred end OF the stick
to sympathize thoroughly with what he
is trying TO do. He deserves support.
| A man like Post can not be killed, even
with lies. They are a boomerang. every
time. Again, We kNOW, for hasn't this
weapon, every weapon that could be
| thought of, been used (and not simply
by labor u~nions) to put us out OF bust
ness, too?
| am going to drink tWO cups OF
| Postum every morning from this time
on, and put myself on a diet of Grape
Nuts. Bully for Post!-EdjtoriGl IN

MAY EFFECT DIVISION
SCHEMES
The Idaho Senate Entitled to
Only One More
Member.

A new question in the county di-
yision movement in Nez Peroe which
has not heretofore been involved
in the discussion of the subject and
which may be one of the factors
that may upset entirely the plans
of the numerous county division
boomers, is the fact that whether or
not Nez Perce county, or any other
sections, it is improbable the
new counties, if agreed to. by all in
terested and formed, will be privi-
legged 20 have representation in the
state senate except by joint repre-
sentation. 1t is conceded that aside
from the county division movement
that county division is also being ag
itated in the southern part of
the state, and the view is held that
the one remaining state senator that
may be added to the upper house
will never be permitted to come to
the north, for political reasons, if
for no other.
Few persons in the state are aware
that under the constitution of the
state OF Idaho, it's upper branch of
the legislature is limited to "a mem
bers. Thus far there are % membe'
of the state senate, lacking one of
the full quota But one of the new
counties, if formed, will be permit
ted to name the one additional sena-
tor. 1t is conceded now that even
though Nez Perce county may be
divided that it will not be permitted
to have an additional senator, the
view being held that Bingham county
and perhaps some other county in
the southern part of the state may
have division at the coming session
of the legislature, to which will be
allotted the remaining senator,
while Nez Perce will have to become
content with joint senator.
When this feature has been /
digested by those clam
oring for county division, it is be-
Ieved the agitation will take diff
ierent form.

A most elaborate six-course banquet
was served in the K of p. hall and
SO partook of the feast. Among the
speakers were Governor Brady and
William Balderson of the U. S. land
office. The latter was for nearly 20
years editor of the Statesman, and
his talk on Pioneer Newspaper
Work was interesting.
Caldwell is growing 1t is putting
on metropolitan airs, with its street
.srs and paved streets, hobble skirts
low-necked dresses and high hand
shakes. Those paved streets looked
mighty coed to us. No mud or
Jlush, and the women folks are not
compelled to expose to view the
holes in their stockings when cross
ing the streets. That town needs
bitter hotel Accommodations, however.
The lobby Of the Saratoga is so
small that it is necessary to go out
of doors to turn around, and when
the town loafers call the roll, the
guests have to either take the back
stairway to get to their rooms or
else call out the fire department an6
the tolice reserves. Otherwise the
town of Caldwell is a mighty lively
little city and peopled with a bunch
of as lively boosters as can be found
anywhere.
