PERSONAL LIBERTIES

Patrick Henry said, give me
liberty or give me DEATH" Have
the people of this section so far
strayed from the paths of rectitude
that they are no longer capable OF
self-government, without the advise
of such mounte-banks demagogues
and impostors as BILLY" Sunday,
Sam Small, etc. people who have
absolutely no interest in general
except from a financial standpoint
Evangelist Scoville said yester-
day in Spokane, "place the churches
in the center of the residence dis
tricts, any place where there are
live ones".
Well he knows that without
producers and "live ones" that we
would have neither churches or
schools. God forbid that l criticise
any religious lganizatIon, but
charity should begin at home.
Any one not familiar with condi
tons in this section would imagine
that quotation from Dante's I'm
ferno" would be applicable. "All
those who enter here leave hope
behind" / will mention that no
one will take it upon themselves to
instruct any one of these would be
sanctimonious gentlemen as to how
tthey shall conduct themselves.
Why doesn't "Billy" Sunday
spend more time nearer homer
will tell you. e. z. Marks are no
so plentiful. Everyone knows tina
there is more vice in the city o
Chicago in one week than there il
in the state of Idaho 10 ten years
Fifty yeart ago eight states
adopted prohibition. Since tina
time seven of them have abandoned
il and gone back to the wiser polio,
of license and regulation.
Now to claim that prohibition
accomplished anything would b
an insult to the people Of the Ne'
England states. One would b
loath to believe after having lis
tened to the rantings and raving

LOCAL OPTION is SUCCESSFUL

LOCAL OPTION Is SUCCESSEUL
To the Editor of the Pend d'Oreille
Review.
la the last issue of the Review
there appeared sn Article headed
Regulation not prohibition"
signed by G. H. Wilson.
Now, / would like to compare
the record of the saloon with that
of local option or prohibition. He
says on every page is written "fail-
ure, folly. farce" etc. Now let's
look at the record OF the saloon and
what do we see? Poverty, shame
crime and debauchery. Prohibition
in some instances may fail to some
extent, but the saloon never fails;
its results are always the same.
He sings the some old siren song,
regulation. Will the whiskey sold
by the best regulated saloon fail to
produce drunkenness and crime2
Then who is in any better position
to regulate it than the men who
are engaged in the business? Why
don't they do it? Simply because
it is business that cannot be reg
ulated without being wiped out of
existance. Mr.. Wilson contends
that prohibition does not prohibit.
Now let us see what Governor
Stubs, of Kansas, says about it in
the Spokesman Review of March
%. He said: GAS result of pro-
hibition, the people of Kansas to-
: day are better fed, better clothed,
have finer homes, larger families
: and bigger bank accounts" 1t was
3 said three years ago that the wip-
ing out of Wichita's saloons would
t ruin the town. Today, with no sa-
looms, that town has doubled its
r population, has more than doubled
e its bank accounts, has better peo-
t pie, less crime, more schools and
more intelligence. l have just re-
ceived letters and kilograms from
e mayors of twenty cities OF towns
: from twenty different sections, and
! from chiefs of police and they al
e agree that the day statewide pro
o hibition went into effect in Kansas
o was the brightest day in the state'i
'e history. Now, it seems to me tina
" these statements from the governor
of Kansas are worthy of belief b.
y the most skeptical.

Bryan's daughter is as keen a dis
ciple of publicity as her illustrious

at election.
The Democratic party has it's gol-
den opportunity now; if the mule
will be furnished a new set of shoes,
strong halter and good guide who

"somethin' doin'."
Recent developments in the Alas
kan land frauds show the 'Guggen-
heimers as worse land grafters than
was brought out in the first investi-
cation. And Governor Clark, of
Alaska, seems also to be badly in
need of fumigating.
The sartorial successor of the
green hat worn by male animals, old

It's fetching creation in Copen-

With an eye on the future. Uncle
Joe Cannon has been making ad-

Bostonians Tin his characteristic

his funny ways in Congress.
The good old days couldn't show
anything better than the recent
horse-whipping of an editor by a
politician whose mother the editor
had maligned. It's we'll to draw the
line at mothers in these newspaper

Also, Bill Bryan has gone to the
expense of telegraphing his opinion

THE GULLIBILITY OF THE
FARMER.

embodiment of simple trustfulness
and gullibility.
And he's always getting Left
Nature does her best sometimes to
cheat him out of what he should
reap by the sweat of his brow, and
she is aided and Allotted by human
sharks, who ''do'' the farmer with
everything from gold bricks to
d1dn 't-mean-to-sign-' EN- promissory
notes.
Comes now an item of news from
the English agricultural district,
showing how John Bull of the plow-
shares seems also to be "done'' occa-
sionally by his countrymen
The word Corporation is a
word to juggle with, in business
deals with the average former. 1t
calls to his mind visions of bumper
crops safely harvested and turned
over to the honest CD officials
whom he and his co-laborers have
selected as worthy of placing those
crops on the market and putting the
money in the treasury.
But, some how, nothing goes as
per schedule, excepting the farmers
all getting up with the early worms
and the dicky birds; and there is
also an exactness about the way
each works for the bumper crop
(and usually gets IT'D. But the troll
ley slips somewhere between the
time said crops go to market under
the guidance of the "oficial" and

Like the celebrated Mrs. Harris,
there amt none sich," as he had
hoped and dreamed.
American farmers have tried CO.
operation of all and every sort.
Georgia farmers have had some dis
astrous and bitter experiences in
everything from corn to insurance,
and usually the farmer had the bag
to hold, and it's always empty.
The English farmer seems to have
been bitten by the insurance bug
and London Truth had this to say
recently:
''The United Farmers Insurance
Company, Limited, is now being
compulsorily wound up at Leeds,
and the official receiver at the meet
ing of creditors last week made some
observations bearing out the criti-
cisms of this concern which have ap-
peared in Truth during the past two
or three years. Originally estab-
lished at Peterborough by Charles
Sheldrick and Raymond Burrow-
the latter a local solicitor-the COM
pany was from the beginning moth
ing better than fraud. That at
least was the conclusion to which
jury came in an action for libel at
Northampton Assizes, and it was
endorsed later on by County Court
Judge Hamilton. About year ago
the business was taken over by new
directors who knew nothing about
it, but they were unable to put it on
a proper basis, and the company's
statement Of affairs now shows a
deficiency of &1O,339. The official
receiver remarked that there were a
number of companies of the same
class which wanted closing, and that
the system was absolutely rotten
1t is; but although the new Act now
coming into force may do much to
mitigate the evil l am afraid that it
will not entirely eXterminate the
swindling insurance company"
There are reasons for all things,
and the profound, dense and un-
necessary ignorance of the average
farmer can be traced directly to
himself.
He lives by penny wise, pound
foolish rule which makes his money

c1ent excuse or reason for his cling
ing to it.
He is blind to the fact that the
wages paid hired hand in order to
send his children to the public school
he pays taxes to support, is money
invested, returnable in gilt edged
premiums; he neglects the home to
improve the barn, and he takes more
interest in the stable of his live
stock than he does in the sitting
room his wife uses.
He makes drudgery of what could,
by systematic effort and ordinary
intelligence, be the safest, surest,
healthiest and happiest way God has
permitted man to choose to live.
And Education in it's deepest,
broadcast, highest sense, is what the
farmer must tie to-
He must permit his children to alb
sorb all they can, and the public
school is the safest medium for this.
If he will keep out of politics, as
politics.; if he will refuse absolutely
to permit himself to be classed or
used as a political asset; if he will
develop his judgment and sense; if
he will realize the beauty, dignity
and honesty of his calling, he will
have no need of cooperative asso-
Citations and unions" which mean
usually fat official salaries for pump
kin-headed, shifty-eyed rascals, who
haven't smelt plow-turned sod in so
long they wouldn't recognize it.
The rest will very soon follow.

Roosevelt has decided Taft shall run

Hatfield-McCoy feud has opened up

ALPS well with the world! A
Harvard High Brow declares kissing
is perfectly safe, and Dan Cupid may
get right back on the job.
The brand of spring poetry this
year is slightly changed, owing to
old Winter having Topped into
Springs lap so unexpectedly.
Secretary Ballinger says he is a
greatly abused and much maligned
individual. Well, maybe he knows
now how Pinchot felt about year
ago.
Millinery ad. reads, ~ off all

trimming, we've seen some hats that

their architecture any.
The frequency with which the
Young Turks" are fighting proves
them to be butchers more than a new
political party. The recent Albanian
slaughter is proof.
Mr.. Taft is going to swing about
the circle again. Maybe if he chews
gum all the time he may get back to
Washington without making any
more political breaks.
