the facts as to reflect, even indirectly
on any county official Sheriff Brown
did not build the court house nor
county Jail. Miss Broman, a Troy
girl, is not responsible for the condi-
ton in her quarters. Miss Dryden
cannot help the unsanitary condition
in the office she is compelled to oc-
cupy. Assessor Gemmill is not to
blame because of the condition, and
for the nauseating smells that per-
meate the air. Neither is the probate
judge nor the county auditor. And
neither is the Daily Star Mirror.
Manford, Harland and Frank M.
Green, both ex-county commissioners,
and both of Troy, were members of
the special committee of nine taxpay-
ers who recently investigated the
county court house and Jail and re-
ported exactly what Inspector Wallis
found; these Troy citizens said the
Latah county Jail is a disgrace, and
that the court house is unsanitary.
OF course, let it be proclaimed far
and wide, the whole trouble lies in
The failure of the citizens of Latah

Jail would be a palace; the water
closets would smell like a perfume

LA TOILETTE SHY
HIS PANTS RECEIVES

LOS ANGELES, April Ex-senator
Robert M. La Toilette, aspirapt for
the republican presidential nomination
received a deputation of his well
wishes without his trousers. Minus
his supposedly necessary garments,
he sat at his desk and talked earnest
ly with his callers.
La Follettes baggage failed to ar
rive with him today, and, not wishing
to visit Pasadena in baggy trousers,
he consigned them to the tender care
of friend to take to hotel valet.
La Follette's visitors rushed to his
apartments before he could bar the
door.

FRANK MOORE FOR GOVERNOR.

While republican politics have oc-
cupied the lime-light in this state
during the past four weeks, and there
was apparent among the democrats
something like an orientally fatalistic
democratic party in Latah county
seems to have solved a vexing problem
for the party in the state by advocat-
ing the nomination of Frank Moore of
this city for governor, and the eleva-
ton of Governor Hawley to the United
States senate.
There is more than a vague und =
current to indicate that Governor

are, upon the payment of 81 in addi-

In other words, you get the paper a

"There's No Use Aduertising

such were the words of the suit buyers assistant when the writer asked what to advertise
 They go out about fast as they come, she con tnued 'Goodness knows how many of that new lot of suits will be here by Monday
 But, ,'h persisted the writer "l must advertise something. How about these serge and silk dresses and those suits you are just unpackingg'
 There's no use in advertising them-there is just about one or two of kind; the price range Is from $950 to $45; the you d talk about would be gone when the customers came Just advertise that we have new silk dresses serge dresses linen dresses and suts and that Mr. Collins is shipping more new ones from New York each day"
 So there's the story; perhaps you would rather see the new suits than read about them anyway.

coming quite common these days.

SO many are becoming alive to the
needs OF the hour and the impor-
lance OF doing something TO kill on

may not be amiss TO call attention
to some matters. lie seems that many
have forgotten OF. will not allow
themselves to think about.
Several years ago when our streets
we're dark and we had to depend
upon keroslne lamps. the cry went
up: I'VE need electric lights" Men
with money answered the cry and
an electric light plant was INSTALL
ed. These men believed the town
would give them a. liberal support
they could make the venture
pay. Strange TO say many who cried
the Ioudest for electric lights would
not use them when offered to them
and many who did take them ex-
pected the company to give as per-
feet and complete service as could
be obtained in Dallas or some other
city where everybody uses electric
light and where thousands of dol
lars are investor where we have hun
dreds
We are OF the opinion that the
faults in our light system are not
80 much due to the men running

II. Like printing newspaper, 1t
takes almost as much labor to print
