THE CITY ELECTION.

The result of the city election
records the will Of the people. While
there appears to be few who har.
Dor some sore spots, they are not
the candidates who received the small
end of the vote. Both Mayor Grit
fiths and c. J. Shorb have warmly
congratulated the successful candi-
dates and assured them of their CO.
operation and help in office.
The retiring council have done
much for the good of the people of
Caldwell. The finances of the city
are in much better shape than when
they assumed office. Improvements
have been made and yet the tax rate
kept down fairly well. In two years
no set of men, however competent,
can do everything. The regular
routine of work takes up a great deal
of time. That the council has done
as much as it has is matter of con-
graduation to the people on select
ing such able men. But the people
telt that certain changes in depart
mental heads were necessary They
felt that new men with new view
points would instill life into the af-
fairs of the city. 1t is probable that
no man ever went out of the office
of mayor with more warm friends
than does Mayor Walter Griffiths $.
In one month he will retire and have
nothing but words of commentator
for the unselfish devotion he has
given to the affairs of the people of
Caldwell.
The criticism of the present ad-
minstration has conferred to large
extent on the city clerk. The only
real fight in the campaign was for this
office. If the people of the city
could read the manly, generous letter
written the successful candidate on
the night of election, the keenest
critics of c. J. Shorb would feel more
kindly toward him.
Half of the present council were re-
elected. 1t is entirely within the
realm of possibility that the other
half would have been but for the
tact that they declined the honor.
Only sincere regret is felt that Henry
Zeh does not feel able to give his
time for another term. The same is
true of the other two members of the
retiring council
The people who so valiantly fought
for the election Of the men who went
down to defeat should at least ac-
cord the new administration the same
spirit of cooperation and help that |
came from the defeated candidates
themselves-we are all working for
the same thing: the welfare of all of |
the people of the best municipal cor
poration in the State of Idaho, Cald-

WANTED-A SOCRATES.

What every small American town
and village needs most is Socrates
who by systematic questioning will
set the people to thinking, sting con-
seriousness and conscience into action,
and persuade them to adopt new bust
ness ways 1t is not the morals OF
the country town and village people
that need awakening (for their morals
without exception are equal or super
ior to those of city people) but the
prosperity and permanence of the
town are threatened by inertia, self
interest and lack of home pride.
So a Socrates is needed, not to go
about as the great Greek did, poor,
shabby and barefoot, stopping in
discrimately in the street and public
places to expound his wisdom, but
Socrates up-to-date-a man who can
talk the subject of Community De-
velopment and put his thoughts in a
masterful way as Socrates did.
Community Development is the
most important work for the country
towns and villages todav, and an ex-
ponent of the subject is needed in
every town-one who can arouse the
business men action and defense in
fighting the mail order and kindred
evils in much the same manner as the
evangelist arouses the churches to at
tack moral wrong There must be
an awakening among the business men
of the country town, and Socrates
is needed to bring it about.

the second so went TO the plate. II

first game hut nothing else re-

Opposing Hedgepeth was Yancey

wins behind him, was supposed TO
have soft picking. How we'll Ayres
