Gratitude

Just as an example of how a kind
act is sometimes appreciated. About
a week ago the son of one of our
merchants was met by a boy of prob
ably IA years of age, who asked Il
he miqht work around the store to
earn his supper. He was given his
supper, and as he had no place to
go he was taken into their home,
where he remained until Monday,
when he decided to move. Part OF
the family went or a fishing trip to
Wolverine on Monday and when they
came home that evening they found,
to their .dismay, that their new friend
had taken, not only his departure,
but all their jewelry as well.
1t is supposed that he left town on
the 9.34 train that night.

Wit by Joel Priest

At the July meeting of the Western
Idaho Press association Joel Priest,
industrial agent of the Oregon Short
Line, responded to a toast, in which
he dubbed with mirth on subjects
that are particularly appreciated by
newspaper men. We print it below,
and parts of it will be better under
stood when we remind the reader thai
the interstate commerce law fOrbids
the use of passes on an Interstate
trip, and that for a short distance
south of Payette the Short Line lies
on the Oregon side of the Snake river,
and editors living on that part of the
system know it is useless to poster
Mr.. Priest or anyone else for passe"
for they would have to cross the state
line before thev got out Of sight OF
home in any direction.
Observe how he ioshes them, anf
especially Mark Bates and Charlie
Hackney, who live away back on the
branch.

Mr.. Tpastmaster, ladies and gentle
men:-I am more than delighted 10
be with you tonight. AS have said
upon numerous similar occasions. this
is indeed the proudest moment Of my
life. The privilege of standing in this
splendid city hall and talking TO an
audience. made up, as it is, OF the
brains and chivalry of the newspaper
profession of western Idaho, is not to
be lightly esteemed. That last SEN
tence. by the way, is not for publica-
ton in the western Idaho newspapers
not represented here. All others VIII
kindly copy.
The subject of passes Is Old, yet
ever new. know this because people
who have once received passes rarely
fail to come back, and new applicants
are showing up all the time. But the
subject really is an old one. older
than the pyramids, older than Mark
Bates of Parma, more numerous in its
ramifications than the sands of tn.
sea or the children of James Fl.
Wallis.
So /, shall not attemnt to rover my
assignment tonight with the thor
oughness 1t merits. I will. on the
other hand, merely leap lightly from
pinnacle to pinnacle among the SER
ried crags that jut above the horizon
line Of history, leaving the valleys to
be explored by ADLER, more experience
ed students than myself.

THE HOTEL MEN

The Northwestern Hotel Mems as
sociation which opened it's annual
session in this city yesterday in many
ways is the most important gathering
Grand Forks has entertained even
with it's half hundred prominent meet
ings of the present summer. 1t is
important because it has brought to
the city the citizens of five states who
are the best publicity agents on earth
Grand Forks does not desire to
make capital out of her hospitality
The city spares no effort to make
the visitor feel at home and enjoy to
the fullest his stay in the city. That
is our duty to our guests. But to
show the stranger the unparalleled
progress and the general prosperity
of the city is to entertain him with
our best service. A drive over our
seventeen miles of paved streets
streets unequaled in any city several
times the size OF this-to point out
the splendid business blocks, the
street railway, our churches-lnore
than score of them and many of
them architectural beauties-our
schools-the best in the land-the
new city hall-the equal of which is
the poss ession of few cities-the mag
nificent parks-these are but the evil
dences OF our hospitality and our
purpose to please and delight those
who come
The hotel men will go from the
city pleased with it's appearance. It
will be a theme In hundreds OF hote!
lobbies during the next year. Grand
Forks will be on the map with the ho-
tells.
Our eloquent and witty Tracy Bangs
the HAPPY combination OF Chaun-
cey Depew and Mark Twain-wel-
coned the city's guests with the
Grand Forks spirit and every citizen
endorses every word of that well
cone. The gates of the city have
oe=n locked open for the hotel men.
We appreciate their presence and en-
Joy their company. The Times voices
the will OF the city when it expresses
the nope that their visit to Grand
Forks may be the most enjoyable and
profitable gathering in the history Of
the association until they make a re-
turn engagement.

both the Canadian capitalist and la
boring man. Mr.. Wilson, speaking of
the latter, said they realized that
the agreement meant giving the Ca
madam market for manufactured pro-
ducts to the manufacturers Of the
United States, leaving the Canadian
laborer with no employment, but pay
ing the higher price for living under
the reciprocity policy.
These conditions have aroused the

A CANADIAN RECIPROCITY.

William ]. Wilson, who is con-
nected with the Toronto, Canada, Ev-
ening News, has been in Grand Forks
for few weeks visiting at the home
OF his son-in-law, DR.. S. F. Halfyard
Of Wesley college. Mr.. Wilson has
given much thought to the Canadian
reciprocity agreement and the elec.
tion campaign now on in Canada in
which that question is the issue. He
does not believe that the Laurier gov
srnment will be returned to power,
which means the defeat of the agree
meat In the Canadian parliament.
The provinces of Quebec and On
tario in which the government was
overwhelmingly strong in the parlia-
ment just prorogued. are turning to
the Conservatives and showing a de-
cidedly strong hand, though to be
able to overcome the Liberal majority
or thirty, outside the three independ-
ents. would mean a decided change in
public sentiment
The reason for this changs, Mr.. Will
son thinks. can be found in the ambi-
tion of those provinces to build up
large manufacturing establishments.

question Monday night at London,
Ont. declared that Canadian wheat
and barley should be manufactured
at home and not sent to the American
mills. This idea is taking hold Of

survived the wreck of time. In it are
found history, biography, law, both
political and ecclesiastical; fiction,
poetry, drama, political ethics, practi-

are conspicuously absent, as is phil

the new testament, where it is phil

To specify more in detail: Genesis
contains the prehistoric traditions of
this people, rewritten by an unknown
prophet, probably as an Introduction

are collection of the laws of this
people as they were gradually formed
during period of centuries of their
national life; the books of history
which follow are compilations from
preexisting materials, and it is pos

these materials-the difference be-

alton coming out clearly in the paral-

Kings and Chronicles; Job is what

THE COST OF FOOD

Announcement that the bureau OF
labor is pursuing an exhaustive in.
vesrigation into the cost OF food pro.
ducts to the consumer as supple.
mentary to similar Investigations by
the department Of agriculture rela-
tive to the prices paid directly to
the producer, is matter of great in
terest to the public. When the data
now being collected by the bureau
OF labor are tabulated and publish
ed, comparison between these tables
and those gathered by the department
OF agriculture will enable one inter-
ested in the subject to ascertain with
a good degree of eXactness, what the
cost of the transportation and dis
tribution of foods really is. This
important item in the problem has
never been worked out satisfactorily
in any investigation yet made.
The fact has been long established
that the price of food products at the
point OF production has not increased
in the last ten years at the rate of
retail prices to the consumer. The
farmer, while participating to some
degree in the rise, according to the
showing OF the department of agricul-
ture, has not received more than a
1.-THE of what the city dweller has been
obliged TO pay for the same article.
The motive for this investigation by
the bureau of labor is the suspicion
that the system of gathering pro-
ducts. transporting them to market
and distributing them has placed an
inordinate tax upon food.
This suspicion, right or wrong, has
been forced upon the minds of the
majority of men who pay the big bills
for food. They have been desirous
for long time of finding out wheth-
er the series Of enterprises which
furnish food products were being too
we'll paid for the service rendered.
1t will be truly significant to find out
whether the agencies contained in the
term "middlemen" are holding prices
down to the producer and at the same
time boosting them up to the con-
sumer. There is. no way to discuss
this subject fairly until some agency
With competent facilities and author
ity shall make a thorough investi-
CATION and report the findings. For
these reasons the work of the bureau
OF labor will be not only of nation
wide interest, but will put into the
hands of congress. the press, and the
people of the country facts upon
which right conclusions may be
founded, and a remedy devised.
