The first advantage of the Hebrew stu

corded in the lesson is a physical one
In this the scriptures have been confirm

the armies reveal the fact that men who

on to Ladysmith has been described by
Sir Frederic Treves. the surgeon who
tells us that THE first who dropped out
were the drinkers. and they dropped out
as clearly as if they had been labeled
with a big letter OH their back" The
records of the life insurance companies
prove that the teetotaler lives longer
than the one who uses liquor even in a
moderate way
surpassed their fellow-students. God
gave them knowledge and skill in all
learning and wisdom. They were bet

They obeyed his laws Of health and
physical and mental development follow
ed Here again the test of the scientists
has demonstrated the superior intelli-
gence of the teetotaler over the drinking
man. The pressure of American life
demands that we be prepared always 10
do our best The man who would win
therefore should not drink.
The positions open to Daniel and his
companions at the close of their college
days proved that Goodness Is profitable
for all things having promise OF life
which now is and which is to come"
The best places in life are closed against
the man that drinks because he cannot
be depended upon. The superiority OF
the four Hebrew students gave them pre-
eminence in the affairs of the kingdom.
The highest honor that came to them
was the realization that fidelity TO God
had brought them into close fellowship
with Jehovah. They realized the full
meaning of the words BLESSED is the
man that endure;h temptation: for when
he hath been approved he shall receive
the crown Of life which the Lord
promised to them that love Him.
Our study of the early days OF tho
captive Hebrew students lives who re-
fused to defie themselves with wine has
taught us the truth of Paurs teaching,
1T is good neither to eat flesh nor to
drink wine. nor anything whereby thy

Bids for the construction Of one Ol
the largest wagon bridges in thess state
and the third structure to be built I'M

CLENNS FERRY
ORCHARD SOLD
c. 7. Barringer of GIenns Ferry
Disposes of His Large Fruit Ranch
To w. r. Prescott of Nampa.

A southern Idaho land deal of great
magnitude was CLOSED yesterday by G.
T. Barringer, who sold his big fruit
ranch, one mile from Glenns Ferry, to
w. r. Prescott of Nampa for $3S,750.
He took as part pay on the deal a
business block in Nampa opposite the
Dewey hotel and the balance was paid
In cash.
The orchard is one Of the finest in
tha state. Ninety acres are set to
choice apple and pear trees, one and
two years old and the irrigation sys-
tenn is probably the best in the north
west, the water being piped under
ground throughout the orchard with
hydrants between the rows of trees
every few feet, making the orchard
easy to water. The orchard is situated
close to the Snake river and is pro-
tected from frosts by high bluffs.

SUPREME COURT
ON SCHOOL LEVY

county commissioners OF Ada county,

or by 9 taxpayer OF the county. II Is
held that an appeal may be taken
from the decision on order OF the
board making levy Of taxes and
authorities are cited. 1t Is ruled that
the provision Of the constitution which
declares the legislature shall provide
such revenue as may be needed BY
levying tax by valuation applies to
the raising Of revenue for state pur-
poses and that under provisions OF
other sections OF the constitution the
legislature is prohibited from impos-
Ing taxes for the purpose Of any coun-
ty. city, town or other municipal cor
poration. but may by law invest the
corporate authorities with the power
to assess and collect taxes for all
such corporations.
This decision will have a far-reach-
Ing effect and serve to compel county
assessors and recorders to do over
the work which has occupied months.
In Nez Perce county the levy for
SCHOOL purposes Is the same as III
Ada, county. This change from the
state laws was brought about by the

five mills shall be levied for school

or NORRIS.

The Nebraska Congressman held
the attention Of his large and appre.
jciative audience from the commence

and succeeded in giving one Of the

livered dn this city. Representative
Norman H. White. OF Brooklne In,

1T Is my privilege to introduce to
you tonight romantic and dar-
ing knight; one who has come out OF
the West to fight the battle OF the
people, and one who ID fully equipp-
ed to fight their battle not unmlc-
cessfully."
His entry into public life occurred
when Nebraska was hopelessly popu-
istic and his pathway to political
preferment was never easy. He is
one Of the men credited with redeem
ing his State, but all his welcomes
have been won through his remark
able lighting qualities
He is insurgency personified. He
has led the movement In washington
In spite Of the personal deprlyations
at entaiaed on him. He has been boy
cotted by his party associates, de-
prived OF his committee appointments,
and snubbed politically and socially,
but stiM he continued his flight and
held true to the ideals which inspired
him. The result we all know. 1t is
needless for me here to repeat the
story of last years great fight on the
floor OF the National House. which

The exhibits of copper, lead, golt
and silver ores, also OF the coal ant

There were also some specimens O
Idaho's lading types Of wood shown
beautifully finished and mounted
which come from the largest saw mil
IN the world, located In Northern

Apples are always an attractive
feature in the exhibit. Large, lus
clous, tempting punches of grapes, dn
cluding the Flame Tokay and the
White Amalaga, with other tender
varieties were shown In the fruit div
lsion. The Importance OF Idaho's
prune crop was bruoght out In the
display placards with the exhibits oi
prunes. Peaches and pears were
temptingly displayed along with other
fruits.
The Idaho potato crop is given es-
pecial attention at all of the Land
Shows. This is especially pertinent
this season, when the people OF the
Middle West and the Eastern states
are having to pay big prices for this
staple. The potato booth at the
Omaha Land Show contains large bin
full of potatoes and hundreds OF
people are regist ring their guess upon
the number of potatoes In the nam
moth bin.
The visitor to the Land Show is
pressed with the progressive spirit
evidenced by the aggressive adver
tisihg campaign under the direction
of the State Bureau Of Immigration.
The idea is infectious that Idaho will
continue to grow and develop in the
naxt five years at an even greater
rate than was shown the past five
years. The capitalist regards the state
of Idaho as safe and dependable re-
gion for investms mt. The homeseeker
has many reasons to feel that 1t lis a
desirable state In which to establish
nome for his family, where they will
be happy, prosperous and contented.
The advertising campaign conducted
by State immigration Commissioner
Rich should bring many families and
. large amount of capital TO the state.
