bushel, consequently the European
farmer cannot dispose OF his seed
peas in this country at profit, and
with the duty in mind the American
farmer can at the same time raise
seed peas at a great profit.
Were Wilson president and free
trade operating, the duty would be
removed and the price of seed peas
would be materially cut. 1t would
be reduced at least 40c a bushel and
in open competition would probably
go down to figure that would make
it impossible for the Idaho farmer
to handle the crop even as hog fol-
der.

WISE WEISER.
nome Capital Sufficient for Invest
ment in Idaho.


Out in Weiser, Idaho, the people
have developed community spirit tt
such an extent that the rooms OF TIE
Weiser Commercial Club are the Sc
cial centre for the entire community
And speaking Of club rooms, there
are few communities of $4,000 popu
lation that can boast as attractive
homes for their commercial organi- a
tons as this live Idaho city CT 20 0.
1t all came about because o. the
towns need for good hotel. The
Commercial Club tried to get outside
capital interested in putting up a
modern hotel building, but after vast
ing a great deal of time, the bright
idea occurred to them: ''Why not
build a hotel ourselves?" A hotel
company was at once, incorporated
and the town boosters had little trou-
Bile in placing all the stock o,ally.
Then they got another bright idea.
The hotel plans called for four
story building. Some one said: "Why
not add another story and use the
fifth floor for Commercial Club head
quarters?" So another $4,000 CT
stock was sold and now the Woiser
Commercial Club rooms on the top
floor of the Hotel Washington, which
was opened last December, make one
of the most attractive spots in Ida.

which has proved so popular that MT
only mass meetings, conventions and
public gatherings of every kind are
now held at the Commercial Club
rooms, but it has become the head
quarters of the social activities Of
the city.
The Weiser Commercial Club has
a membership of $50: paying monthly
dues of So each. Among it's recent
activities was it's campaign of edu-
cation in afvor of $452 900 bond is

was carried principally because of

WHAT A BIG
STRIKE MEANS
Board OF Arbitration Gives Some
impressive figures in En-.
Gineers' Case.

The 30, 900 locomotive engineers
OF the eastern railroads have won
their fight for an increase in wages.
While the board of arbitration be-
tween the railroads and the engin-
eerS in lis award does not grant all
OF the engineers demands, it es
tabllsheS minimum wages which
amount to a substantial increase
on most OF the roads.
Notwithstanding the increase in
compensation the representative of
the engineers on the board dissents
from the award AMI SAYS the settle
ment accepted by it can be only
temporary.
The boarG tries to impress upon
the public the seriousness of the
situation that would have con.
fronted this country if the engin-
eerS had acted as they voted and
uult Woik. The railroads invOlv-
ed IN the controversy, it is pointed
ont, operate 66 SIC miles of track
or mo than One-fOurth Of the
total mileage of American rail
roads
Their annual operating revenues
exceed 81 900, 900, 900, or nearly
40 per cent Of the total for the
railroads OF the country. They
carry nearly one haIf of the freight
traffic Of the United States and
over two-ffths Of the passenger
traffic. Excluding general officers
the annual payroll of the employ
ees amounts to SAG, 900, 600 and
I the annual compensation OF the
engineers alone TO nearly $3S ,OOO,-
900. The population of great
area Of the country served by these
roads is about 81 600, 900 or more
than 20 per cent OF the total pop
ulation Of the country. The sec
tion Of the country represents at
! least four -tcntEs Of tue wealth OF
the entire United States.
The board points out, further,
that strike would have left the
large cities Of the east with their
/ food supplies exhausted within a
week. The milk supply probably
would not have lasted more than a
day. The board adds that sue
cessful general strike for the east
ern district of the United States
would have put that great section
OF tae country in much the same
situation that confronted France
Il few years ago during general
railroad strike there.
1T is evident" says the board,
that for a great section Of the
United States a railroad strike can
no longer be considered as a mat
ter which primarily affects the rail
roads, operators and employees.
1t is therefore imperative that other
ways may be found to settle differ
ences between railroads and their
employees than by strikes. "-Ex.

TAFT'S MESSAGE
IN SUBSTANCE
A Synopsis OF the Last Nessaae
TO Congress from President
Taft.

\ note OF warning TO European
powers which ly Indirect means
continue to discriminate against
American trade; u strong appeal
to TIE congress to uph.t the great
foreign policies Of America above
mere questions Of paltisanship; a
triumphant vindictiOn Of the dip
lumacy of the administration,

min strafioH; and an earnest ap
pea 10, JOINT a.iiou by c"nGrc- S
and the executive to open new
markets for American industries
theSt are the most striking features
of President T4it's fourth annual
message to Congress.
The message is the first Of a
series Of such communications
which he will make to congress in
the early days of the session, and
deal entirely with the foreign re-
latiOl,s Of the United 5 atcS. Be-
ginning with the usual reference
to the existing good relations with
foreign powers, the president adj
that these have hcen strength ned
by "a greater inslstcnce upon
Justice TO American citizens, or
interests. wherever it may have
been denied. and a stronger en-
phasis Lf the need Of mutuality IN
commercial and other relations. ,
For the first timn in It's history,
says the president of the state de-
pariment has obtained substantial
ly the post favored nation treat
ment from all of the countries Of
the void. Therefore, he says
that it is only natural that com
petitive countries should view
with some concern tie expansion
OF our commerce. Hence the
warning, if in some instances,
the measure taken by them to meet
it are not entirely equitable, rem
edv should be found"
To tins end, the president strong
~ recommends the enactment OF
the bill recommended by Secretary
Knox last December, permitting
the government, instead Of impos-
inc the full maximum rates of
duty against discriminating coun-
tries, to apply a graduate scale of
duties, up to that maximum OF -
per cent.
Flat tariffs are out of date, >
says the president Nations nc
longer accord equal tariff ueat-
ment to all other nations, lrrespec-
tive of the treatment from them re-
c9ived.
1t is very necessary that The
American government should be
equipped with weapons OF negol-
ations and adapted to modem
economic conditions,
The state department, an al,
thaic and inadequate machine, at

tion. the president says, has be-

EXAMPLE OF THE SAINTS.

We read in the life of st. Paul of
the Cross, says Father Landing in the
Pittsburg Observer, that he abstained
from flesh and wine, drinking nothing
but water; he often refrained even
from this, choosing for the sake OF
modification to suffer the burning
thirst of journeys which he made on
foot under the hottest rays of the
summer sun. In one of these journeys
made with Father Fulgentius, they
came to fountain of clear water
which invited them to quench their
thirst. The saint, turning to his CON-
panion, said: "Shall we for the love
of Jesus crucified and thirsting On the
cross make sacrifice of abstinence?"
They did so, and continued on their
way strengthened by the sacrifice. The
lives of saints are the Gospel in prac-
tice. If they made such sacrifices for
Christ and their neighbor, cannot we
who are the children of the saints
practice total abstinence from alco-
holic beverages for the same reason?
From want of generosity, following
in the footsteps Of the saints seems
an impossibility. Drink requires more
suffering, humiliation and sacrifice
fran its votaries than total abstinence.
"By their fruits shall We know them.

fessional. His defence was that
he was a student of history
and believed it his duty to en-
tighten Catholics on certain
points of Catholic doctrine re-
garding confession. He had to
admit, however, that the authority
which he consulted was none
other than a work of the ex-priest
Chiniquy! This shows the depth
of Watson's scholarship. We do
not know what the final outcome
of the trial will be, but we hope
it will teach him that he cannot
use the United States mail for
the propagation of his anti Gath
Ollie bigotry. An example should
be made Of some individual be-
longing to this class of un-Ameri-
can citizens as warning to all
who strive to arouse sectarian
bigotry in the breasts Of their
countrymen.
