MAYOR FRED REED =
NOT IN THE RACE

Although persistently urged by
friends in all parts of the state to en-
ter the race for the Republican, con-
gressicnal nomination Mayor Fred R.
Reed has declined to make the run.
The Boise Statesman was informed
of report that he had declined to
become candidate and asked him for
a statement. Mayor Reed said:
II ran the proposition over in my
mind for some time, but I finally de-
cided not to enter the race. It is a
position any man should feel proud
to fill-representing Idaho, in part,
in the halls Of national legislation, and
the sincere opportunities of my friends
strongly influenced me. But l have
decided to turn my face from the temp
tation to shy my sombrero into the
ring.
MY reason is that have my work
cut out for me. have been engaged
for some time in the important labor
for assisting in developing this state.
That is of more Importance than poll
tics and believe l can do more good
for Idaho in that capacity than in any
other

THE EFFICIENCY OF
BUYING AT HOME

Did you ever stop to think what
convenience it is to have a full
line Of good retail stores at home in
our own community?
It enables people to see goods at
any time before paying down money.
In that way the purchaser detects
many faults that could never be found
in buying from catalogue cut.
Furthermore you get your goods
when you want them without bother,
letter writing, or without the fatigue
of journey to big city and tramp
ing all over its streets. It is an
economy Of time, car fares. human en-
ergy.
Furthermore, you can do your shop
ping at your leisure, when you are in
a mood for it, rather than in the haste
and furry of trip out of town. In
our home stores you take all the time
you want to talk over your purchase
and inspect goods. You can positively
assure yourself that you are buying
right
Furthermore you get more personal
and intelligent attention in a home
store than anywhere else. The pro-
prietors and clerks must please home
trade, or get out of business. It is
human nature to take more pains for
people that are known than for strang-
ers. The home merchant will go the
utmost limit to give satisfaction for
defects in the goods, and without ir-
ritating red tape.
When Locating for residence or bus
mess, people are as slow to settle in
place lacking good stores as in a
place where the water is net good.
II we want to draw in new resi-
dents, everyone must do his share to
provide them with the conveniences
cf retail trade. The only way to do
this is to patronize the home mer-
chant
1t is the good fortune Of this COM
munity to have line of finely e.
quipped and attractively stocked re-
tail stores. But if every dcllar pos
sible were spent at home, these stores

different grade Of counties to what Il
was before division; up to that time
ie was classed as first grade county
and officers were driving first grades
salaries. Since the division it has,
gone into a second grade class and the.
salaries, regardless Of politices. will
have to conform to that class. The
State law positively states the salaries
of commissioners to be 500 for first.~
$500 for second and $500 for third
class counties per annum. It Also
states a maximum and a minimum sal
ry for each county officer. which is to
be determined and established by the
county commissioners of all counties
on the second Monday of April preced-
ing the general election, which Is be-
fore even the primary election.
Up to this time have not express
ed myself on this matter, and viii not
until 1t is taken up in the proper ord
er at the meeting in April, and l as
sure the taxpayers that my stand on .
that matter will be in accord with my
stand in all previous matters pertain.
ing to the welfare Of the taxpayers Of
the county. and not for the benefit of
office-holders or office seekers. PERSON.
ally l have no political debts to pay
to anyone, my record is before the peo :
pie, and care not who may occupy
the positions of county officers, or
whether they be democrats or republic
cans. On the matter of fixing the SAL
aries will use my best judgement. NY
opinion on this matter is that the
greatest kickers are office-seekers who
are more interested in the salary than
in the office.-Shelley Pioneer.
