Congressman Addison T. Smith
who is especially interested in leg
islation beneficial to homebuilders on
the public domain is preparing sever
al bills for introduction which If
enacted will encourage settlement of
the public lands and make farm life
more attractive and make unneces-
sary many of the hardships which are
now imposed by stringent laws and
regulations upon those who are en-
deavoring to DEVELOPMENT tn. resour-
ces of the country.
In order to make possible the rapid
extension of the reclamation of the
arid lands by the government it Is
necessary to increase the amount
available each year by the issuance
of additional reclamation bonds
Senator Borah succeeded several
years ago in securing legislation for
$20,0O0,O00 bond issue which has
made possible the construction of the
Arrow Rock dam near Boise and the
completion of the Boise-Payette pro-
ject He has introduced in the Sen
ate a bill providing for the issuance
of $50, 100000 bonds, duplicate of
which Congressman Smith has intro
duced in the House, which if enacted
will make possible the undertaking
of number of vast irrigation pro-
jects upon which preliminary work
has already been done, but the con-
struction of which has been deferred
because of the lack of money.
Congressman Smith has also intro
introduced bills appropriating mon
ey for the construction of a federal
building at Caldwell and Weiser.

Senator Brady has just returned to
Washington after an extended visit
to Idaho. While in the state he Wis
tied Pocatello, Boise, Lewiston, Wal
lace and Occur d'Alene and had the
pleasure of meeting many of the citi-

and that his visit was most profitable
to him.
While there he talked with num-
Der of leading men who have made a
study of the tariff question as it af-

with reference to lead, wool and sug-
ar, and received much information
which will be of benefit to him when
these schedules are up for discussion
in the Senate.

also provides the same extension of

HER MOMENT or PERFECT Joy
Little Girl Got What She Wanted
When She Wanted II, and
Therein Lies a Moral.

A girl wearing a gay bit Of golden
rod in her coat was hurrying through
the crowded railroad station Of an
eastern city one evening, when she
was stopped by a thin little hand
thrust up toward her through the
dusk, and child's cry, Lady, give
me that flower"
It was not a plea, it was not re-
quest. 1t was demand and the
flower was in the child's hands, the
happiness OF her sad little face had
flashed close for an instant and the
quick feet had scurried away into the
darkness before the girl who had
worn the goldenrod had time to look
or think, to give or to refcse.
The flower had grown on rock by
the sea. 1t was still wet with the mist
from the waves and the sunset glow
was reflected in its gold. Perhaps the
child had never particularly noticed
the sun, for. except when it was above
the tall buildings, she could not have
seen It. But the desire of all the world
for the sun and the open sea was in
ner voice. Perhaps she was a very
ordinary little girl, who grew up to be
little bigger and then worked in
factory, and liked to walk up and
down the streets with the other girls
and show off her cheap gay clothes.
She probably married, and had several
little girls like herself, and was always
tired and poor. but, as far as she
knew, happy enough.
All that makes very little differ.

"The Difference

Dry Cleaning is Often
Misconstrued.

Many believe DRY Cleaning to i'm
ply the mere removal Of individual
spots by local treatment; and indeed
this belief has been given birth by

misstating that Dry Cleaning is done

learn that a thoroughly equipped DRY

Signing the Pledge.

New York is town of pledge sigp ers," said a transplanted Bostonian. People sign pledges to refrain from about every vice and pleasure known to the human race. Pledges striking death blow at intemperance and pro- fanity, of course. are most popular here, as elsewhere. but they are only the top liners in a varied list of absti- nences.
 During my six months residence in New York have been approached by emissaries from humane societies. bo- tanical and horticultural societies, pa- triotic societies. physical culture clubs and every kind of benevolent institu- ton the town affords, asking me to pledge myself to refrain from doing any of the things those organizations condemn. At pledge headquarters they even attempt to regulate your literary and musical tastes by obtaining your promise not to read certain books or listen to certain kinds of music No matter how freakish a pledge may seem to the average citizen 1t finds hundreds of supporters, and as all pledges really tend to regeneration it Is not unnatural to expect the millen- nium to strike New York most any aay."-New York Times
