GOATS MILK FOR ALL

Instead OF having our cows tested for

THE OBSERVATORY

At the Presbyterian church We'd
nesday evening of last week Mrs. w.
S. Hawkes. was overheard telling some
of the ministers a story about the
olden time in New England, which
seemed to greatly please them: so
much that my couriosity was awaken
ed to hear it myself; she referred me
to her husband, who had frst-hand
knowledge of it; possibly our readers
will enjoy it, and so l have asked Mr..
Hawkes. to give it more in detail. And
here is what he has obligingly writ
ten for us:
The story to which you refer was
about the celebrated Edwards family
of New England. The great theolo-
gian Jonothan Edwards was born in
the town of South Windsor, Connec-
ticut, where his father was pastor at
the opening of the XVIIIth century;
in 1868 | was pastor of the End church
in that same town. and had aged par
ishoners who had heard their grand
parents tell about the great Edwards
family. among them were number
who we'll remembered Jonothan Ed
wards nieces. whose father was the
first pastor Of my church. and who liv-

THE CREATION OF PUBLIC
SENTIMENT.

A few years ago the creation of
public sentiment was a matter of edu-
cation. 1t sometimes took years in
which to arouse the people of the
country. Now it is done overnight.
There are agencies which will fur
nish all the sentiment needed for any
innovation or reform while you wait.
There is no question but that they
produce results, although it cannot
be said that the impression created
is very lasting. AS all of us are more
or less interested in creating. public
sentiment in favor of some project
or other. a knowledge of the methods
used should be welcome.
The creator of public sentiment a,
once assumes that the sentiment al
ready exists. He starts out with the
statement that the people are demand.

wants them to demand. A few wear,

INAUGURATION WEATHER

Washington is already beginning tc
worry about the Inauguration weather
In view of the bad luck last time, a
storm this year would result in in
creased agitation for later date
when the chance of snow should have
passed.
Everyone sympathizes with Wash
ington's desire for good holiday
weather. But the matter is not easily
settled. The time between the choice
Of the president and his assumption OF
Office already seems too long.
The governors of all the states but
six take Office in the January follow
ing the November election, usually
the first Of the month. The interval
seems ample for the action of the
voters to take effect.
There seems no particular reason
why the interval between the choice
of a president and the beginning of
his duties needs to be much longer
The gap between the election and the
succession is a hating one if new
man comes in. A hold-over official is
never in position to get much done.

HEITMAN REFORMS.

The Standpoint News is responsible
for the statement that the Hon.
Charles L. Hoffman intends with
drawing from the practice of law and
politics. He will henceforth devote
his leisure time to the advancement of
church work for which he has felt a
strong inclination for many years.
Having accumulated a competency
Mr.. Hoffman feels that he can do the
greatest good and derive the most
satisfaction in life by lending his eff
forts to the moral and religious up
lift. While Mr.. Hoffman has always
been very religious man he has be-
come known throughout the state as
a lawyer and factor in politics. Two
years ago he was the chairman of the
Republican state central committee
and filled the position most credit
ably. The candidates and the party
were we'll pleased with the manner in
which HE conducted the state cam
paign.
1t will seem strange indeed to the
politicians to know that Charles L
Hoffman is no longer particularly in
terested in politics. For better thar
20 years he has been one of the lead
ers in the state. We know of no tim
in the history of Idaho when he wa
not found working for the best in
terests of all the people. He may hav
made mistakes but they were ia
apart and at no time serious.
The great majority of the peopl
wish Mr.. Hoffman the gratest sue
cess. He is a capable and energeti
man and will prove himself towc
of strength to the cause of religion.

REDUCE THE SIZE OF TIE
LEGISLATURE.

While the legislature is looking
about for places in which economy
may be practised without injury to
the people and the state generally, it
might take look at its own size and
cost. The legislature is entirely too
large. The state constitution provides
that the number of senator's shall
never exceed twenty-four, and The
number of representatives shall never
exceed sixty. The trainers of the con-
stitution thought that this number of
legislators would be ample for all time
to come. The maximum has been
reached but the population and wealth
of the state have not reached their
maximums. According to the optim
ism of the calculator Idaho is billed
to have a population of from two to
ten million people within the next
couple of centuries. For legislative
purposes it is costing the people Of
this state as much at is will cost the
people two centuries hence. All o.
our legislative machinery is now il
use.

A HANDSOME INCREASE.

The advertising done by the state
sanitary commissioner has certainly
borne fruits. Two years ago the leg
islature appropriated $1,000 for the
maintenance of the commission. The
present legislature has fixed $4,000
as the amount necessary. The pres
ent commissioner believes in adver-
Using and he is the best advertised
man in the state. The result is that
he got a handsome increase in the
appropriation for his Office.
With all due respect for Commits
sioner Wallis and his assistants we
think that the sanitary commission is
something of joke, but an expen-
sive joke. Two years ago the whole
force of the Office decended upon
Caldwell. Our restaurants, hotels
soda fountains and butcher shops
were investigated and fined with the
strictest impartiality. Not one one
was allowed to escape. There was
something the matter in all of them
Since then we have not been investi-
gated-or at least have had no general
overhauling. Is it to be supposed

The legislature has appropriated
$50, 600 for the purpose OF paying the
expenses of this session. This is an
increase of $4,000 over the expenses
Of the session two years ago. As the
length of this session will be the same
the additional expense must be
charged to the increase in numbers.
There are "a members of the legisla-
ture. Each member costs over ST.
10000. Is member worth $l,OOO.U
to the state? We cannot see that he
is. We believe that the same work
could be done with IS senator's and
20 members of the house. In fact
small compact bodies are likely to do
their work quicker and better than
large unwiedly bodies. At every ses-
sion hundreds of bills are introduced
chat are not enacted into laws. Even
the members who introduce the bills
never expect them to pass. Each
member thinks that he is in duty
bound to introduce bill or two. The
sitting of these bills consumes more
or less time. They are used as trad
ing stock; as a means of obstructing
LEI islation and for every purpose ex-
cept to accomplish some real good for
the people of the state.
A good substantial saving could be
made by reducing the number of leg
islators. The present legislature
could do it without injury to single
member. Very few members of the
present legislature will be members
of the next. Let this legislature play
joke on its successor and at the
same time save the people of Idaho
twenty-five or thirty thousand dollars.

AN INVESTIGATION IS NEEDED

Press dispatches from Washington
last week indicated that the Recla-
nation Service is about to be investi-
gated by Congress. The Service
should be investigated. Here on the
Payette-Boise project the settlers
know that there has been incompet-
ency and Encouragement. Estimates
of the cost per acre. for water has
climbed day by day. At first it was
estimated that the cost would be
about 5000 per acre, with $500 per
acre as the maximum. It became
known four or FIVE years ago that the
cost would be at Leaf $50; two years
ago that it would reach $500; last
year $500 was the estimated cost;
and this year neither the people nor
the bureau at Washington dare try
to estimate the ultimate cost The
cost has been made outrageous simply
through incompetence. 1t is said by
Deer Flat farmers that Is separate
and distinct surveys were made in
order to properly run an ordinary
irrigation lateral. Incompetent en-
gineers were on the job. That is all
there was to it. Incompetency seems
to be prevalent throughout the entire
bureau. 1t is known and has been
known for many years that Director
Newell was not the man for the posi-
ton he occupies. He is a nice old
fellow like Secretary Wilson of the
Department of Agriculture. He
would not hurt the feelings of any
one. With this you have said all that
can be said for Director Newell.
The settlers on the Payette-B Boise
project have no charge to make
against the Service except that of in.
competency. On the Salt River pro-
ject it is charged that only the water
corporations received consideration al
the hands of the bureau. We car
easily believe that such was the case
Anyone will little nerve could i'm
pose upon Director Newell. He i.
too trusting, too conhding, too cas-,
to be at the head of government
bureau which is spending millions o
dollars annually.
The Congressional investigation
should be thorough. Congressiona
investigations are not noted for prac
teal accomplishments, but they usu
ally give the people pretty clear ide
of the condition of affairs, whether Q
not practical good results therefron

HOME INDUSTRY WEEK IN
APRIL.

The first week in April will be
III ONE Industry Week" throughout
the state of Idaho if the plans of the
club women of the state are carried
out. 1t is proposed that during the
entire week Idaho-made products be
used in every home. The idea is not
only to give Idaho manufacturing
plants an impetus but to impress upon
the minds of the people the fact that
great many things used in everyday
life are made right here at home. The
introduction of these homemade art
icles will create demand that will
increase in proportion to the number
of people who become acquainted
with them. AS the home market is
educated to use the home product
other manufacturing lines will come
in. There is no reason why Idaho
should not become one of the greatest
inland manufacturing states in the
Union. The raw material is produced
here and there is available water
power to run every factory now To-
Gated west of the Mississippi river.
The introduction of manufacturing
will mean a great reduction in the
cost of living to the people of this
state. Transportation expenses are
one of the greatest factors in the high
cost Of living. The people of Idaho
have to pay the freight on their raw
material east and again on the manu-
facturers article before it can be used
in the home, on the farm or in the
business. Incidental but none the less
important, is the number of middle
men who must live, by the way. Mr..
]. B. Gowen, in an article on wool,
published in The Tribune some time
ago, showed that the wool passed
through the hands of eight or ten
hands before it returned to the con-
! sumner in the form of cloth. He
pointed out the reasons for the high
price Of the wooden cloth. To more
or less extent the same conditions
obtain in the handling of all ma
terial.
The Tribune trusts that the women
of Caldwell will observe Home In
dustry Week" We are convinced
that they will find it profitable to dc
so. There are great many things
made in Idaho that are just as good
and just as cheap as those coming
from other states. In order that tn,
women of this city may know what
articles in common use are made il
Idaho, the local merchants should lis
his home made products. All mus
work together if this week is to b,
the success it should be-
