A FEW DEMOCRATIC CANDI-
DATES.

is taken into the councils of the
democratic party. In consequence
we deeply appreciate the oppor-
tunity to look behind the scenes
now and again. Our observations
lead US to believe that the pres
tidigitators of the party are work
ing to the end that harmony shall
prevail. To establish harmony in
the de mocratic party requires a
sleight of hand performer of no
mean ability. This explains why
Hon. John Nugent is chairman
and also why there has not been
a meeting of the democratic state
central committee. 1t is usual
for the state central committee
to NEE t about this time of the
year for the purpose of fixing
the time and place for holding
convent ion to elect delegates to
the national convention. Our
conjuror informed us that Mr..
Nugent is holding back on this
call in order that he may get a
number of proxies corralled, thus
making for harmony. He has a
deep insight into the democratic
characte and knows that peace
is more apt to prevail when only
one m an is present. When the
proxies are in hand the COM
mittee will meet. The committee
will resolve that in the interests
of harmony there shall be only
one candidate for the nomination
for each office, and further, pro-
vided the proxies are corralled by
Nugent, that whereas the Hon.
Judson A. Harmon is a tool of
Wall Street and the darling of
big business, Hon. Woodrow
Wilson should receive the Demo-
cratic nomination for the presi-
dency. That is the program
Chairman Nugent has mapped
out. His program also includes
sending the same John Nugent
to the United States senate,
hence the necessity of harmony
with a big II.
Har mony is the watchword of
this campaign. The offices will
be divided with great care and
discrimination. 1t is planned tina
Governor Hawley will go into
the cabinet as secretary of the
interior in case of democratic
success at the national election.
Thus is one factor removed from
the way of the ambitions of Chair
man Nugent. 1t is the idea to
nominate the Hon. M. Alexander
for governor and he would in
deed be ungrateful if he should
afterwards stand in the way of
the senatorial aspirations of Mr..
Nugent. Hon. E. M. Pugmire,
state senator from Bear Lake
county is to be the candidate for
congress, thus satisfying the
Norm ons. Hon. John C. Rice
of Caldwell will be sprung for
justice of the supreme court and
Frank Harris will be the candi-
date for encouragement. Sena-
tor Day of Shoshone county is
the likely candidate for congress
from north Idaho. The other
office will be put where they
will do the most good.
Yon can easily see how the diff
ferent forces are to be worked.
By endorsing Wilson and putting
Hawley in Harmon Is cabinet. and
with Dubois running Champ
Clark IS campaign there is not
a ghost of show for, the Idaho
democrats to lose out nationally
provides the party pulls through
at all. By nominating Senator
Pugmire the Mormons will be
appeased; by nominating Sena-

TRAINING Is NEEDED TO SELL
STOCK.
Come Men Require Their Own Sons to
Work Four Years at Least.

How long does 1t take to learn to
sell live stock? Well, don't know.
Some men never learn. Others are
fairly quick at it. But nobody can
learn it except by years of expert
ence," says lack Moore, the famous
hog salesman at the National Stock
Yards. Take my boy, there. He's
been in the hog alley with me for sew
eral years. am teaching him fast as
l can. But 1t won't be under four
years from the time he started before
he knows much Of the business.
And a man has got to study just
the one kind Of selling. He can't sell
cattle and hogs and make a success
of both. The hog alley and the cattle
pens are miles apart when it comes
to being in both of them the same
day. The hog buyers are a class all
by themselves. So are the cattle buy
ers. The packers don't employ the
same man to buy more than one class
OF stuff. And TO meet those buyers
you have to sell just one class of
stuff.

what they want to buy, knowing when
to go to them with load and when to
keep away is a big part of the bust
ness. l guess it would take a man
coming in new at least three or four
years Just to learn who is who round
here among the buyers.
"a farmer may know all about feed
ing stock. A shipper may know all
about buying stock for market. But
neither a farmer nor a shipper can
come into stock yards and make
success selling without long expert
ence. They may know all about the
special animals they have been accus-
toned to feeding or shipping. But
they must also know animals from all
the other states that ship here and
also know all the buyers who buy
here for lots of different states. Just
this one thing is enough to keep
man guessing a long time-and you
can't solve such problems Just by hav-
ing some special knowledge of hogs
or cattle in some given section. This
Is National game-this selling OF
live stock, in more senses than one"

Many Persons AFFLICTED With Pyon

The most important thing to be i'm,
pressed upon the mind of the patient
is the fact that the best and most
permanent results can be obtained
in the treatment OF the disease when
1t is recognized and corrected in its
earlier stages.
The disease generally begins by
some foreign substance, such as tar
tar, deposited on the teeth, causing ir-
ritation Of the gums. Unless this tar
tar is carefully removed the disease
gradually progresses and the tissues
around the roots of the teeth are de-
destroyed. Thus pockets are formed
about the teeth into which filth and
bacteria accumulate.
This condition will generally be
manifested by the teeth shifting their
position-either spreading apart or ro-
tating or both; pus flowing from the
pockets when pressure is made over
the tooth root and the affected tooth
gradually becoming loose and the.
gums sore or tender and bleeding
easily.
The vital thing for the patient to,
know Is whether or not the tendency
towards pyorrhea is evidenced in his
mouth and If 80 what can be done to

sooner this fact is recognized by both

fact of its appearing as a special in

been sent broadcast on the Associated

And when We talked the thing over
we realized that the papers Of Arkan-

being reprinted from the Little Rock

the hogs came from, and thus not only

George Coy the other day. That is,

80 per cent OF the members of tn EX-
change are farmers-not only in the
beginning, but now. They never get
over it.
In this office l guess about all Of
them were farm boys. Mr.. Overstreet
was brought up on a farm in Mont
gomery county, Mo. His father used
to raise and buy live stock and ship
it to Buffalo, N Y, before there was
a live stock market at either st. Louis
or Chicago. Edgar was brought right
up in the business of not only feed
ing live stock, but selling it. Mike
Bright was a farmers boy in Boone
county, Mo, and early developed the
trading and business side Of his tenn

"Of course, the farmer training is
the basis Of success in live stock sell

is 1T A FAKE?

Last week we published a free ad
vertisement of the Philadelphia
School for Nurses, making liberal
offer to young women who may W ish
to become nurses. It seems now that
the institution is not in good stand
ing, and we hasten to warn anyone
VINO may be thinking of accepting
this flattering offer. A letter is being
sent out to the newspapers, signed by
DR.. William S.Higbee, President of
the Pennsylvania State Board of Ex-
amners for Registration of Nurses,
which states that this institution is
not in good standing in Philadelphia
with the State Board, that the"Grad-
yates of this school are not accepted
by the American National Red Cross
Society, nor the nursing corps of the
Army and Navy, that they are not
admitted to the Directory for Nurses
connected with the College of Physi-
clans, Philadelphia, nor are they re-
cognized by the State Board of Ex-
aminers for Registration of Nurses. !"
We give the above information as
we get it, and advise thorough in
vestigation before accepting the very
tempting offer made by the Philadel-
phia School of Nurses, as appeared
in this paper last week. The reader
was published at the request of the
School for Nurses. in the hope of
possibly helping some young woman
who had in mind the profession of
trained nurse.

PREPARE FOR DROUGHT.

Being neither a prophet nor the son
OF a prophet, particularly weather
prophet, the suggestion is offered for
what it is wor4h, viz: That the
abundance OF rain we are now having
is precursor of a drought later on.
Before the corn crop is gathered this
fall much of the surplus water now
going to waste will be needed. This
prediction is made by a Number of
wiseacres, who have observed the
seasons for years. 1t is likely to be
the case. If land is well broken and
we'll and thoroughly prepared before
planting, and then 'cultivated often
much of the moisture will be consery-
ed, which will otherwise be evapor-
ated and lost. Frequent and shallow
cultivation, particularly after rains,
will do much to bridge over a dry
spell.

HIGH PRICE FOR TEAMS.

One result of the road building in
the community has been to empty the
town of teams. It has been difficult
to get gardens and patches powed.
a number of gardens have not been
broken yet. The road people are
paying Sd per day for two. horse
teams, and as consequence every
team capable of doing heavy work
has gone to the road builders.
Four dollars per day amounts to
nearly one hundred dollars per month
This means ten per cent on one thou
sand dollars-a heavy expense to the
county and the contractors. IN MANY
localities, where the lay of the land
will permit, traction engines are
being substituted for horses, with
great satisfaction. Statistics, as fur
nished by road builders in other
states and different parts of the
country, show that stone can be de.
livered on the roads at about one half
price per cubic yard, with traction
engines, as with teams. It is said
that the road builders in Augusta
county are delivering the stone on the
roads at just abe pit one half the cost
as when teams we used. A combi-
nation roller and traction engine
would be the tIfng, provided the
