Hamer Wins Printers Favor.

Congressman Hamer, by voting
with most of the Democrats and few
insurgent Republicans, succeeded IN
having inserted in the postofice APP
preparation bill the following clause.
which prohibits the government from
printing envelopes for private firms
at cost which absolutely prohibits
competition by private printing con-
Germs. The clause reads as follows:
THAT from and after June 80.
1911, it shall be unlawful for the
postofiice department to print or
have printed or sell or offer for sale.
any stamped envelope bearing upon
it printed direction giving the name
Of any individual, firm or company.
or any number of any postomce box
or drawer, or any street number Of
the name of any building to which
it shall be returned if uncalled
for or undelivered' etc.
This regulation has been demanded
by the printers throughout the coun-
try by resolutions of editorial assO-
Citations and organizations Of different
branches Of the printing trade The
price for which these envelopes are
furnished precludes any possibility
of competition. and the primers could
see no reason for the government to
monopolize a branch of their indus
try. The practice has taken from
the printer some of his best custom
ers. as only the largest users Of en-
velopes use the government kind.
There is no more reason for the gov
eminent to enter into competition
with the printer than with any other
industry. The patrons of government
printed envelopes are the first to con-
denim the mail order houses. yet we
fail to see wherein lies the differ

interests did not take kindly to
them. Now it is all different You
hear as much Of Idaho and the great
inland empire in New York as you
do in Chicago. The reason for this
is due to the sale of irrigation bonds
there. The financial people are be-
ginning to talk of Idaho. They are
becoming interested in the great pro-
iects and they talk more intelligently
about the country than ever before.
"On Wall street. particularly. is
heard much talk. Hundreds and
thousands are becoming interested,
and look to see an influx OF east
ern people into Idaho this spring and
summer. These same people used TO
laugh a year or two ago about the
great profits which the grower re-
ceived from the crops Of one acre.
They have seen that such is the case,
and that is why the bonds FOR irri-
cation projects can be sold in New

in the metropolis very soon which
will make it an easy matter for
money to be raised for an irrigation

the consistent advertising which the
country has been getting. The Coun-
ell Bluffs and Chicago expositions
helped out materially, and the ef-
feet OF these expositions and the ex-
hibits which Idaho had is being felt
in the east. New York people have
been very slow to grasp the idea that
Idaho has the best land in the north
west and has wonderful possibilities,
but from now on it will be different,
and New York capital will be a po-
tent factor in the future development
of this country. While / was there

about the various projects under

much interested and even enthused
over the conditions there. They rea-
lie, too, that they have held out too
long, and that is why they are coming
in so quickly

NEW WORKERS. INTERESTED.
Advertising State Has Received Re
sponsibIe For Unusual Interest
Taken In Irrigation.

Due to the tremendous advertising
which Idaho has been getting dur
ing the past year or two. and to the
fact that irrigation bonds are being
sold in the east, the Gem State is
now talked of considerably on Broad
way and Wall street, and those who
never had a thought for the north
west are being aroused that this sec
ton of the country is rich in many
possibilities. This is the opinion
given by C. L. Waterbury. who ar
rived from the great metropolis last
night after a two-months' visit to his
old home, says the Statesman.
Mr.. Waterbury is well known in
Boise and has a large ranch at Coun-
ell, which is being set out in apple
trees.
In speaking of what New York peo-
pie think of Idaho, Mr. Waterbury
said when l was in the east last

FEAST
BEGINS SATURDAY
Holiday Comes Late This Year
as This Was Leap Year in
Jewish Calendar.

Jewish residents OF this city are
preparing to usher in the festival oil
the Passover. which commences sat
urday evening and continues for eight
days. The holiday comes little late
this year. due TO the fact that this
was a leap year In the Jewish calsn-
dar, with thirteen months instead OF
twelve.
The Feast Of Matzoh, or Passover,
commentaries the redemption OF the
children of Isreal from bondage un-
der the leadership Of Moses to found

The distinguishing feature thst marks
the celebration is the abstinence from
leaven bread and the eating OF IN

membrsnce OF the unleavened bread
which the Israehtes made during their
hasty departure from Pharoah's land.
The feature which brings much JOY

WHY?

The Norfolk papers are still ham,
mering away at the double quarantine
evil which continues to handicap and
tax the commerce of Virginia ports.
And the Norfolk commercial organi-
cations seem to be aiding in the eff
fort TO have the State service dis
pensed with. Newport News is inter
ested In this matter equally as much
as Norfolk. The double quarantine
system is in vogue here and nobody
has challenged the statement repeated
ly made in these columns that the
State service is a service in name
only. no benefit accruing to the port
OF anybody else except TO whoever
happens to be holding the position
of quarantine officer. In view OF
these facts why do not the commercial
bodies of Newport News interest
themselves in this matter? The com
merce of this port is being handicap
ped and taxed for no other purpose
than to create political salary-pay-
ing job. Are the people of Newport
News content to let this condition
continue indefinitely. or until the 1--we
folks across Hampton Roads get re-
lief for us?
