BROAD AND LIBERAL POLICY
FOR IDAHo'S SCHOOLS

Commenting upon the manner in
which Gov vernon Hawley, in violation
of the law as some leading authorit
ties claim, reduced legislative appro-
priations for state educ ational insti-
tutions, the Spokane SpokesmanrRe-
view says:
1t is charged that only $150,000 or
so have been allowed the University
of Idaho During the two years ehsu-
ing.
1t is alleged that Governor Hawley
reduced the legislative appropriation
below the margin of efficiency. Two
regents are quoted as claiming that
the regents cannot maintain the i'm
stitution for two years ON $150,000
without curtailing many important
features.
Whoever be responsible, it appears
as If some one had certainly blunder.
ed A great institution like the uni
versity of state cannot be financed
on any such scale as only $4,000 a
year. 1t must expend annually, if it
is not to lose ground gained and in
fluence won. Adequate salaries
must be paid to teachers, if first
class ones are to be had. Enlarge
ments of the plant" must be made,
and new features added, if the youth
of the state are to be attracted
Idaho is too well-to-do and saga
cious and progressive to- let its uni
versity be financed with the penny
wisdom that saves at the spigot and
wastes at the buhg.
Not only the state university but
everyone of Idaho's big schools suf-
fers by the arbitrary action of the
governor. The legislature enacted a
law making provision for their prop
err maintenance. The governor re-
duuced items of that appropriation bill
His action left the schools seriously
handicapped-the cornerstomes of Ida
hos future Impaired and the impress
sion scattered broadcast that Idaho
cannot properly take care of it's i'm
situations
1t was only one of the mistakes
made by Governor Hawley that will
cost the state a hundred fold more
than can possibly be saved by his
penny e-and-pound-foolish methods
The contention that the governor is
not endowed with Legislative powers
should be passed upon by the SUI
preme court. In the case of the ed
ucational institutions, he used the We
to- power mot to nullify any item OIL
items of the appropriation bill but to
reduce them! Was that not legisla
ton? Can the governor amend a
bill? If he can, the public should
know ut at once that they may take
steps to protect themselves from loss
of money and prestige through the
election of broad-gauged, business.

The indications are that the Sem
ate will take up at an early date and
dispose OF the question of the cleo
ton of Senators by direct vote of
the people, as provide for i'm the res
olution of Senator BoTah. The chan
ge in the membership of the body
has practically removed all possibili-
ty of the measure not being success
full at the present session of Com
gress. Even before the Committees
of the Senate had gotten down to
and Senator Hepburn raised the
POINT hat the action of the Commit
tee was premature inasmuch as the
report was made before the compile
tion of the organization of the Sen
ate. However, this contention was
purely technical, dealing rather with
the mules OF the Senate than with
the merits of the legislation. Those
who have watched the slow growth
vi ScHumHtult, dilu the SloWeN plOCcse
of legislation for direct vote, have
experienced admiration for the WON
derful fight made by the Idaho Sen
ator i'm accomplishing one of the
greatest achievements known to Con-
gress. While the subject has been
the cause OF an almost endless a
mount of debate, still the fact re-
mains that the real difficulty was
grown out of the individual fear of
Senators that they might not be able
to retain their positions under the
new order provided for in the Borah
resolution.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON
Importance Which Ida
no Figures.

A bin introduced by Representa-
tive French provides a uniform sys-
tenn of signals to be used in the OPP
Grafton Of railroad trains in all parts
of the country, and the measure has
directed attention to the fact that
in the operation OF different railroads
there are wide differences In the
meaning OF the signals that govern
the dispatching and operating OF trail
MS on the railroads. Under the bin
the American Railway Association
is authorized to designate to the ln-
terstate Commerce Commission witt
in six months "a standard ccde OF
/ rules for the operation of railroad
trains both under the time interval
or time dispatching system, and the
space interval for block system, IN
Guiding a code of hand, lamp. Ilag,
and whistle signals fer authorizing
| the movements of trains, locomo
| tiyes or cars, and for indicating tne
classification of trains" The OIL
ject of the bill is to remedy the con.
| FUSION and to save the accidents
which often occur by reason of the
different systems of signals ON diff
| ferent lines of railroads. 1t has been
| pointed out that frequently trainmen
in different parts of the country are
compelled to operate traffic over sew
eral lines of railroad having different
codes and signals ON single trip
the confusion thus occasioned some
times proving disastrous.
Mr. French has also introduced a
bill relating to the Forest Reserves
| of Idaho. Following the allotment OF
practically million acres of cshool
land to Idaho by the Federal Govern
ment, fully one-third of this Land was
afterward placed i'm the Forest Re-
serve. The purpose of Mr.. French's
bdll Is to restore this great area to
the State itself from which it has
arbitrarily been withdrawn. Since
the lands properly belong to the State,
the object of the legislation is to fix
an agreement upon other blocks of
agricultural and ohter lands Within
the State that are now property of
the Government, and to have such
lands granted to the State i'm lieu
of the acreage lost under the Forest
Reserve Act.
Both of the above measures are
to- be pressed at the present session
of Congress, and the recovery of all
this land will be a substantial bene
fit to the State.

A proposition has come from a
source termed "the more cOnserva-

ed, las Ut lis undesirable to entirely
abolish tariff on raw wool at this
time, to change the duties to the ad-

tax until 1t lis wiped out" However
it lis evident that any attempted
change ih reference to the wool
schedule will meet with the most
strenuous opposition. One Western

tests by letter and kilograms from
more than 800 constituents who insist
that there should be no tampering
with the present law.

President Taft took a little run
over to New York during the week
and spoke at banquet given by the
Publishers Association. In the cour
se of his nemarks he ridiculed the
talk of annexing Canada, saying that
it was all "bosh." In support of his
contention that reciprocity with Cam
ada must be secured at this time,
the President said: "The forces
which are at work in England and
i'm Canada to separate her, by Chi
nese wall, from the United States,
and to make her a part of an Impe
rial commercial band reaching from
England around the world to England
again, by system of preferential
tariffs, will derive an impetus from
the rejection of the tneaty, and i1
we would have reciprocity we must
take it now or give 1T up"

AT the big conference held to urge
universal peace of the world, the
great war clouds that hover over
parts of this terrestrial globe of ours
were all pushed aside, and President
Taft, Ambassador Bryce of Great
Britain Ambassador Uchida OF Japan,
Senator La FOntaine of Belgium and
Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, Chief JUS
tice of Canada, were among the
principal speakers and each prOphe-
sled that all national disputes would
i'm future be settled by arbitration
instead of the force of arms. The
proposed International treaty be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States was cited as magnificent
step toward International peace, and
the remarks OF Baron Uchida who
declared that "the talk of ultimate
war between Japan and the United
States was all myth" were among
the indications that the frame OF
mind of representatives of the great
nations, was all in the direction of
peace.

President Feared Tone of Resoiu-

-.-New Treaty With More Modern
Conditions Is Invited.

Washington, d. C.-President TAFT
has turned over to the senate the
task of completing the abrogation OF
the treaty of 1892 with Russia be-
cause of alleged determinations
against American citizens of Jewish
faith. Ignoring the house of repre-
sentatives, the president sent mes
sage to the senate announcing that
on Dec. 1 5 he had caused notice to
be forwarded to ST. Petersburg that
the United States desired the treaty
to end on Jan. /, 1913. Mr.. Taft
asked the senate to ratify and give
effect to his action
In his message to the senate Presl-
dent Taft transmitted a. copy of the
letter which American Ambassador
Guild at st. Petersburg, had trans
mitted to the Russian foreign office.
In it was expressed the view of the
United States that the old treaty no
longer met the political principles or
commercial needs of the two nations
and should be terminated. The
American government, with marked
courtesy, suggested further that it
would be most agreeable to this
country If new treaty, along more
modern lines, could be negotiated to
replace the ancient and outlived
document.

prosecutions have been instituted In
the United States, from rendering con

The agents in the British isles OF
the prominent American meat packers

Pending the ultimate result of the
legal proceedings in the United States
against certain meat-packing firms. 1t
has been decided by the British gov.

The decision of the government Ia
due to the opposition of labor and ad-

to the American trusts.
Chicago.-An official of Armour &
Co. said here that the action of the
British government in denying Amer
lean packers the privilege of bidding
for army supplies. while not unex,

thus far has been directed against
the packers as result of the prose
