BANIsHING THE CUPS

The period of education in regard
to the ease with which the public
drinking cup transmits diseases, has
reached the stage of putting the new
disclosures into effect, and the state
board of health of Idaho has issued
orders to the railroad companies to
Danish the public cup from their
trains, and to school officers to re-
move them from the schools.
On the railroad cups are kept for
sale at peny apiece or some very
low price, and each passenger must
supply his own cup either by carry
ing it with him or by purchase.
In the schools it must be met by
pupils taking their own cups with
them the same as they do their lunch.
The theory is, and it has been abunA
dainty proven, that the pupils with
sore throat, for example, cannot use
a drinking cup without leaving}some
of the disease fluid on the cup where
the lips touch it, and the next child
same spot carries enough Of the dis

TIMBER FIRE T. ssEs

A rough estimate .sof the fire loss
upon the. National Forests in Mon
tana and northern Idaho, upon which
the forest officers of the U. s. de-
partment Of agriculture have been en-
gagged since the fires were put out,
puts the total amount of timber kill
ed or destroyed in this one district
at over billion board feet, while
the area burned over is put at over
IN million acres.
The heaviest losses were in two
Idaho forests, the. Occur d'Alene.
where over 3 billion board feet Of
timber are reported killed or de-
stroyed and over $50 thousandacres
burned over, and the Clearwater,
where billion feet of timber were
killed or destroyed and 800 thou
and acres burned over. On the Hell
ena National forest, in Montana, the
loss in timber is believed to have
been 500 million feet, on the Cabi-
net forest 400 million and on the
Lolo forest 800 million.
A large part of the losses on the
Occur d'Alene, Clearwater, and Lolc
were due to what became practical.

on the Forest service maps as ex-

w. C. T. U. UP A STUMP

The W. T. G. U. of Idaho have been
working for about twenty years to
put the saloons out of business, and
it was long ago conceded that two
things were necessary to get ready for
the final struggle-equal suffrage
must be btained, and a political party
must be established or found to take
up the fight and carry it through.
Equal suffrage was obtained after
a few years work, and now after
getting the strongest party in the
state to take up the temperance work,
after half the battle had been won,
and there was little doubt of the sim
certify OF the party carrying on the
hight for temperance, 1t appears that
not only did the women of the state
disregard the opportunity to carry
their point, but the W. C. T. U. failed
to score any points during the cam
paign. Leading women OF that or
ganization holding important offices,
have repeatedly ignored the requests
made upon them to aid in the fight,
many of them have gone into collus-
ions that worked out absolutely
against the temperance cause, and the
only excuse that we have been able
to get from such sources is that the
SO called VETS are as likely to car
ry out the temperance measures as
the SO called "drys."
OF course this puts Governor Haw-
ley up against a policy he has not ad-
vocated during his campaign, but we
are glad to have his own constitu-
ents set this pace for him.
1t also goes long way toward prov
ing that equal suffrage is failure
in so far as the women's votes are ex-
pected to settle moral issues when
brought into the political arena.
At this hour the word is going out
to the world that Idaho, after twenty
years of progress in getting to the
point where its womanhood could
wipe out the greatest evil in the state
blocked its own progress in the mat.
ter by the hand that was expected tc
redeem it. Exit woman voter!

E. ]. Roberts will leave about the

Apple show and the Chicago Land
show, where he will distribute large
quantity OF literature now being pre-
pared by the Roberts-Daly Co., ad-
vertising Twin Falls in general, and
the apple industry of Southern Idaho
in particular.
The members of this company are
E. ]. Roberts, of this city, and John
G. DAILY of Salt Lake City. Mr.. Rob-
erts, who is extensively interested in
Utah mines and real etsate, came to-
Twin Falls to look after his mining
interests in northern Nevada, became
interested in the apple industry of the
Twin Falls tract, and decided to To-
cate here. His partner, Mr.. DAILY, is
manager Of, the business Of the John
j.. DAILY Co., of Salt Lake City, in
which position he has entire charge
of the immense business interests Of
his father. throughout the west.
These men are firmly convinced OF
the fruit raising possibilities on the
tract and as fast as possible they will
secure suitable land, and prepare it
for apples. They expect in this way
ITO est out smore than thousand
acres Of orchard within the next two
years, making the largest orchard
project ever undertaken in this Sec
ton Of the tsate. I !.
The Roberts-Daly Company owns
and is now rapidly. plowing under,
800 acres Of alfalfa land, one half Of
which lies three-quarters of a mile
south, and the other one and quar-
ter miles east of Twin Falls, and all
of which will be set out to apples
next spring, under the supervision Of
M. Thomas, well-known to the or
chardists of Hood River, rand juno
ton and the Great Lakes region, he
having been engaged in this business
in all of the great fruit district of
the country.
This land, which commands one of
the finest views in the country, with
a gentle northeast slope, will be d.
vided into five-acre tracts and osld
out to home-seekers and investors. A
fine automobile road will be built to,
both tracts. beautiful drives shaded
by Caroline and Lombardy poplars
win be built to each separate five
acres. and everything possible will be
done to make this the most beautiful
home spot on the tract.

IT'S ALL OVER

Now that the election with it's strife
and uncertainty are over, forget the
disappointment of the occasion and
smile as often as possible! Politics
necessarily brings surprises and dis
appointments to about half Of those
who get into the game, and the more
actively one gets into 1T, the more
there is coming under his .oreher OBJ
servation that is apt to-, shake ones
faith in humanity unless 1t is looked
upon with the utmost charity Men
are but children Of larger growth,
and in all the complications of a cam
paign. with all kinds Of characters
trying to impress their influence up
on people, it is no wonder that some
of them do strange things and seem
ungrateful or untrue. When it looks
that way to candidate it is safe to
discount appearances literally, re-
membering that we may not see it
from the same viewpoint he did, and
1t is always better for self to think
generously of the other fellow than
to harbor bitter thoughts, for they
react upon the nature of the one that
harbors them, doing an injury that
may be as great as the incident that
aroused the anger or resentment
It is always well to be good loser,
and to practice forgetting what is
painful to think about.
