When there Is nothing else 10 do
talk pOhucS. Ii you have anything
else to 40 you had better do 1t. koh-
tics, except IN boise Is stale, un-
prontabIe subject tor discussion. In
BOISE 1t Is different. In fact every
thlng is dInerent-even the air. We
admit, though, Inat there is something
al southeastern Idano winch promotes
conversation along this line. The
latest emanatIng from that secuon
is Ex-Governor Brady for congress. In
view of the tact that Mr.. Brady, him
self, announced about a month ago
that he would not be a candidate tor
any political office, the boom from
the southeast is probably only the out
burst of an enthusiastic and admiring
friend. 1t would really be too bad if
Governor Brady were forced into con-
gress. The Malad Enterprise is re-
sponsible for the latest Brady boom.
In citing his qualifications attention is
drawn to the fact that Mr.. Brady is
a money spender and good one. To
have money is good; to spend it lib
orally is good; but we cannot think
that money-spending is a prime quail
6cation for a representative in con-
gress.
When the people have thoroughly
sized up the situation they will nat
urally turn to Col. Thos. R. Hamer
who represented them for two years
with ability. Col. Hamer made good
before and he is entitled to the next
term. 1t is true that he has been
mentioned for the Republican nom.pa-
ton for governor. This is only an at
tempt to side-track him. Col. Hamer
would probably make good executive
officer but just at present We need
him in congress.

They would make strong team but
each appeared a little leary of the
other. 7. K. Little is at present hy-
ing close to the ground to use a
phrase much used by Jap Nichols of
this city. Judge Ailshie was in a
deep quandry. He is still trying to
find out whether or not he is eligible
to the governorship. Being naturally
modest he thinks the people are call
ing to him; and of course being mod
est he is ready to efface himself.
Joe Bogart quietly and confidential
ly informed the reporter that the di-
rect primary was hell. In fact he pre-
fers the commission form of govern
ment. Bogart likes to recall the days
when he and Dubois and Willis Sweet
manipulated the Republican party. In
later years this duty devolved upon
Bogart, Mcconnell and Shoup. Then
it fell on Bogart, French and Morri-
son. The last time it was Bogart,
Gooding and Brady. Now the politi-
clans are cut out entirely. Bogart,
like Napoleon, left no successor and
he should get little consolation out
of that. But we are astray without
compass.
The real thing that is worrying the
politicians who are worrying the peo-
pie is Charles Hoffman. North Idaho
politicians claim that Chairman Heit-
man has set himself up as boss ami
proposes to not only take the govern
orship north but also designate the
man. This is causing southern politi-
clans, as we'll as Paul GLADSTONE, con-
siderable uneasness. They are afraid
that he might do it; and in case he
should, he will probably take it to
Spirit Lake. The north says that the
governorship has been conceded to
that section. Messrs. Morrison,
Haines and others do not admit the
fact, while Taylor says it's a cinch.

well, and representatives of the Idaho

of the proposed line and are even now
amicably working together in the adj

and share in building an electric rail-

smaller towns of a great valley, and
will pull all together for the greater

to the end that anticipated profits may

The supreme court has handed down
a decision in which it is held that
pure alcohol containing not less than
o2.3 per cert by weight of ethyl alco-
hol and IL per cent by weight of wa
ter, may be sold in local option terri
tory in Idaho without prescription
of a regular physician. The purchaser
must make a written application for
the spirits. The court holds that alco-
hol is not a beverage and that the
legislature recognized the distinction.
This suit was instituted at Lewiston
for the purpose OF getting an intcr9re-
tation OF the law. On August JG c.
F. Osmers, a Lewiston druggist, sold
half pint of alcohol to C. F. Hersey,

The state supreme court has upheld
the Black, or commission form OF
government law, and ordered Mayor
Friedman of Boise to call a special
election under the law. The court
finds thar there is nothing in the state
constitution prohibiting the legisla-
ture from passing such a law. The
wisdom and expediency of such law
is q matter which rests entirely with
the legislature. The people OF Boise
petitioned the mayor to call special
election under the provisions OF the
Black law that they might have an OPP
portunity of voting on the question
OF whether or not they desired to
adopt the commission form of govern
ment. Mayor Friedman refused to
call the election. A writ of mandate
was applied for and is now upheld by
the supreme court

last session of the legislature. 1t pro-

SOME OFFICIAL FIGURES
Wisconsin Stands First Ac-
cording to Board of Immi-
grafton Figures of Yields
Per Acre.

In the variety, quality and
yield of crops the state occupies
front position. The following
summary shows Wisconsin S
standing among states produc-
ing sufficient quantity of the var
lous crops to warrant considera-
ton. The irrigated states are
not included for the reason that
the cost and labor of irrigation
are not clearly enough determin-
ed so that an accurate compari-
son can be made All statistics
are from the United States Agri-
cultural Department, Crop Re-
porter and Year Book:
Of all states producing flax
during the ten year period end
ing 1910, Wisconsin stands first.
Among the nine states produc-
ing 1000, 1000 bushels or more
of barley, without irrigation,
Wisconsin stands first.
Among the sixteen states grow
ing 100000 or more of oats,
without irrigation. Wisconsin
stands first.
Among the seven states pro-
ducing more than 100000
bushels of spring wheat, Wiscon-
sin stands first.
Among the eight states pro-
duciag 100000 bushels or
more of potatoes Wisconsin
stands second, led only by n
state using an enormous amount
Eof commercial fertilizer.
Among the thirteen states pro
ducing 100000 or more bushels
of rye in 1909, Wisconsin stands
fourth, the three states leading
Wisconsin by very slight mar
gin.
Among the twenty-five states
producing 25,O0O.OOO bushels or
more of corn, Wisconsin stands
fifth, The leading state, Ohio,
leads Wisconsin by only 2 +
bushels, Indiana by 10. Illinois
by 1.3 and Pennsylvania by II.
Of all the states not using irri-
cation, according to latest tables
Wisconsin stands fifth in hay
production.
In sugar beet production the
state leads all non-irrigated
states and comes within a ton
per acre of equalling the average
of the irrigated states.
