NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

The new postal laws bear down
very hard on delinquent subscrib-
ers and newspaper publishers re-
quiring that subscriptions be not
allowed to extend over one year
in arrears. The Globe has just
received a notice from the third
assistant postmaster general in
sisting upon an observance of this
provision. We are therefore fore
ed to notify all subscribers know
ing themselves to be in arrears
to come in at once and settle
their subscription account, and
place themselves in proper stand
ing with the postal department
and the publisher. Some may
question the justice Of this law,
but we did not make it, if we had
it would probably have been diff
ferently constructed. But it is
here, and as it must be observed.
if you will do your part as sub
scribers, we will try and do ours
as publishers, and we will both
keep our skirts clear. Do not
forget that this is no joke, but
is strictly business and must be
attended to at once.

RICH, BUT A TRAMP.

Young Jack Everitt, son of
George Everitt, the real estate
man, met an old man on the
streets of Nampa recently, who
appealed to the boy for aid. The
boy took the old man under his
care and provided meal for him
and fixed a place for him and
his dog to sleep and then the
boy took his last dime of spend
ing money and bought two boxes
of sardines and got some crack
ers and provided the weary trav-
eler with breakfast. He also fed
the dog and gave him a drink of
water, and, in fact, proved the
good samaritan.
This was done out Of the good
ness of his heart. Wednesday the
old man showed young Jack that
he owned almost a half interest
in the Lincoln mine adjoining
the Bunker Hill and Sullivan
mines in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict in northern Idaho.
The old man is one of those Pc
culiar old prospectors who meet
with adversely and sickness and
got in Strengthened circumstances
and was too proud to beg and got
on the road 'tramping" as the
saying goes. The old man could
easily sell out this stock in the
mine for enough to make the bal
ance of his days comfortable and
give him many thousands of dol
lars to spend, and he will get a
payment of $1,000 the coming fall
on the property, yet he and his

erously with the people. There
are honorable exceptions. But
enough is known of the heartless
greed that fattens off of the hun
ger-driven millions to warrant the
strongest protective associations
on the part Of the people
In commenting on the above
the Outlook says:
This passage, which was fol-
lowed by condemnation of law
less violence, the blacklist, the
boycott, and child labor, is from
the quadrennial address of the
bishops of the Methodist Episco-
pal church. 1t was read by Bish-
OPP Cranston at the conference
now in session at Minneapolis.
According to a statement made by
Bishop Moore, Bishop Cranston
is the author of the address. 1t
was signed by all the bishops.
The passage we have quoted is
remarkable both for the beauty
of its form and for the signifi-
canoe of it's substance, both for
what it says and for the way it
says it. We recall no utterance
that states with more clearness,
with more cogency, and with
more moral and religious feeling
the verdict of enlightened cOnsci-
ences regarding the conditions
created by modern industry The
questions that the bishops refer
to in this statement are not mere
ly political, economic, or CONNER
cial; they are moral, and, as the
bishops clearly indicate, funda-
mentally religious. 1t has been
said with much truth that the
churches have been too much
given to discussing and debating
questions of theology and too
little given to seeking the answers
to the real qusetions of life. Here
after those who say this will
need to take into account this
strong and classic utterance of
the Methodist bishops. In max
ing it the bishops have served
their church because they have
served all churches, and they
have served all churches because
they have expressed the convic-
lions Of the people. Like the
of Israel, the Methodist
bishops have translated the truth
of the Eternal into the terms of
current life.

$4,000 TO TEACH FORESTRY.

American forestry credits Ida
no with approximately 100000
100000 feet of excellent timber
practically untouched, with vast
areas of treeless land belonging
to the state, with national for
ests covering 20,00O,00O acres,
with more than 100000 acres
under the control of large cor
porations and with extensive tim
Der holdings in the hands of the
state and of private owners.
Such a situation imperatively
urges the study of forestry in
the University of Idaho. The ad-
ministration of the forests calls
for many trained men. Northern
Idaho needs protection, develop
ment and utilization for it's for
ests. Southern Idaho calls for
farm forestry, grazing and refor-
estation. The school of forestry
accordingly trains two classes of
foresters for different kinds of
forestry.
1t has two four-year courses in
forestry. Both teach the same
subjects, but the course in the col
lege of science prepares for tech
nical forestry, whereas that in
the college of agriculture devel-
ops the student along the line of
farming and biology.
The worlds finest forest of
pine, larch and cedar is within
easy access from the school, while
heavy forests of spruce and fir
may be reached in a few hours.
Close to Moscow are some of the
largest sawmills ever built, with
the latest and best equipment and
methods. The school is at the
heart of a region that soon will
be one of the greatest wood-us-
ing centers in tn United States.
The timber-owners and lumber
men Of northern Idaho appreci-
ate the school heartily and sup
port it generously. They have
agreed to give $4,000 toward
the expense of erecting a build
ing for the school. The univer-
sity plans a structure which, with
its equipment, will cost 100000,
and be complete to the last mag

NOT ONLY BLUE SKY.

A great deal OF comment has
been made in a criticizing way on
what is known as the Blue Sky
law" in Kansas. Like many other
new departures from the well
beaten path Of bygone years this
Kansas law was jumped onto witt
both feet by the ultra conserva-
tive element, who waited only to
learn that this law was out of
the ordinary, and that it had
found expression in Kansas to
get busy against it; for Kan
sas has done many things in
its brief and checkered career to
shock our conservative brethren
from her first declaration of free
dom from slave importation on
down to prohibition and farther
Gov. Stubs in a recent issue of
the Saturday Evening Post, COM
ments on this shocking Kansas
law as follows:
Kansas, according to some
highly indignant persons, was
about to be ruined in a business
way-all its big corporations driv-
en- from the state and it's invest
ments seriously injured; capital,
always represented as exceedingly
timid, was being discouraged
when the Blue-Sky law went into
effect. Under this law a COM
pany must stand investigation be-
fore it asks the public to deliver.
Sun motors, sailed mines, gold
bricks, worthless stocks and bond
and all the other thousand and
one schemes fOisted upon the lit
tie investor must be investigat-
ed-must stand in the daylight!
Where one dollar has been
lost in Kansas through bank fail
ures, ninety-five have been lost
through investment in worthless
stocks and bonds. Probably nine
ty-eight per cent of the money
invested in mining stock alone
was lost-stolen, it might almost
be said.
Fully one thousand agents
were selling stocks and bonds in
Kansas when Dolley took charge
of the banking department, and
large part of the money they
took in was practically stolen
from investors. They are not do
ing this now. Out of six hun
dred companies asking for per-
mits to sell stocks in Kansas, ex-
actly forty-nine have obtained
favorable action. A penitentiary
sentence is the penalty provided
in the Blue-Sky law for selling
stocks or bonds without a per-
NIT from the bank commissioner.
This Blue-Sky law is one of the
most valuable laws in the stat
utes of Kansas. 1t saves annu-
ally to investors more money than
the entire cost of the state gov
eminent -

GOOD CITIZENSHIP.

When one finds he is out of
sympathy with his town, and
can only say a good word for it
coupled with an apology, he ought
to get out, truthfully remarks an
exchange. Many people fall into
a sort of unconscious habit of
growing. But its a miserable
habit. Such people make of
themselves dead weight, while,
Of course, they imagine them
selves particularly independent.
The individual has about all he
can do to get along under his
own loads, and he wants help
and encouragement from those
going his way, and who are iden-
titled with his in interest. So
with the town. 1t has its inter
ests to care for, and it needs all
the pluck, all the energy, all the
cooperation and helpfulness it's
citizens can provide and bring to
bear. Every man is a part of
his town. The town embraces
the fortunes, and in some meas
ures at least takes on the char
acter of the man. SO loyalty to
ones town is no more than 10y
atty to ones self; and this loyalty
Is in the line of all we'll shaped
human nature. Therefore, it is
right to say that the man who
does not stand up for his town
is in some way dwarfed. There
is something wrong about him.
His fellows will pass this judg-
ment upon him, and the chances
are that while he may add to the
discomfort of others he will not
escape making himself unhappy.

B. O'Flarity, was the original To-
Gator of the property and he sofa
the controlling interest in the
mine to big corporation that is
now developing the property.
He lacks just ten shares OF own
ing half of the property. with
the development now going on
it will be as good if not better
than the famous Bunker Hill and
Sullivan mines.
Mr.. O'Flarity will remain IN
the city for few days at least
and will be cared for until he
can be induced to part with some
of the stock and can get money
enough to live nicely until his
payment comes due, but whether
the old man will do this or not
is problematical.

man who befriended him and his

footsore.-Nampa Herald.

Among the counts in that indict-
