Lincoln County times. (Jerome, Idaho) 1911-1919, 1913-01-02

The decentralization OF the potato
markets this year has taught its
lesson. Not only have the farmers
suffered from the glutted condition
OF the market, but the whole COM
munities have been held back to just
the extent of the shrinkage in crop
values.
The Irrigation companies realize
this. They know, too, that potatoes
which were shipped from the various
tracts were not sorted as they should
have been, and the consequence is
that farmers have been compelled
10 hold over to spring potatoc s
which they could have sold had
they been properly sorted and
Ho'ed in the association ware
houses.
This Is true In Gooding; It Is
true on all the tracts.
The lesson has been taught. III,
remedy lies in concerted action.
For some time there has been
close relationship between the Idaho
Irrigation company and the Gooding
Fruit and Produce Growers Asso-
citation. General Manager Kays
saw the possibilities of the utility of
the association. He saw that Its
success meant successful and there
fore satisfied farmers. Satisfied
farmers will populate this project
more quickly than all the Illus
trated booklets which can be is-
sued.
And these facts brought the Of
Ulcers of the association and the
Irrigation company upon the prop
osition OF finding markets.

killing of his son by a black brute,

+, Washington. - Tension over the
Mexican situation was apparent in
sMctal circles.
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan in early conference discussed
the message from Manuel Cara
iAdalpe, acting Minister of Foreign
Affairs, stating formally, in behalf of
President Huerta, that unless John
Lind, personal representative Of Pres
ident Wilson, en- route to the Mexican
Capital, bore credentials recognizing
the Huerta Government, his presence
n Mexico would be undesirable.
Later the American Embassy at
Mexico City, through Nelson O'Shaug-
hnessy, Charge D'Ahairs, was instruct
ed to explain to the acting Minister
Of Foreign Affairs that the information
on which his statement must have
been based could not have come from
the State Department here as no Off
cial declaration of Mr.. Linds purposes
In visiting Mexico has been made.
Mr.. Bryan Also issue the following
statement:
"The statement OF the Mexican
Foreign Office was based on mfsrep-
resentations for which this Govern
ment is not responsible. In sending
Governor Lind as adviser to the En-
bassy, the President Is entirely with
IN his rights, and this Department will
not assume that his going will be re-
garded as unfriendly when the char
acter Of his mission Is understood"
Most of the Republicans as wei. as
Democrats OF the two congressional
Committees on Foreign Relations
have indicated that they will support
the efforts Of President Wilson to
bring about peace in Mexico. A
great many Senators, however, are in
favor Of lifting the embargo on arms.

KANSAS PROHIBITION
ARTICLE IS WEAK
Admits That Prohibition Does
Not Prohibit-Members of
House From Dry Counties
Stand Neutral.
GEORGIA LAW FAILURE

In one or two of the County papers
within the past two weeks has been
printed an article under the head,
"What prohibition has done in Kan.
sas,'' publiched in al effort to show
that the Dispensary is not for the best
interests of Lexington County, but in
the article itself is it's weakness. Mr..
Dawson who is quoted in the article
says: "The only solution of the liquor
problem ia its total suppression" and
he says further, "Does prohibition
prohibit? Of course not''
Four years ago, A counties in the
State VIC ted on this question and of
this number only counties voted for
the Dispensary. Since then we have
had two sessions of the Legislature
and at neither of them has there been
put through Statewide prohibition
bill. Why? If the representatives of
the 3S counties had believed that
Statewide prohibition was for the best
interests of the State, could they no.
have run bill in over the representa-
tives of the counties who had Dis
pensaries? If the people in the 3S
"dry' counties had believed that State
wide prohibition was for the best in
terests of the State would they not
have sent senators aud representa-
tives who held the same views? We
are left with but one of two explana-
tions. Eighty-five per cent of the
members of both Houses have not
kept their faith with the people, or,
the people have tried prohibition, found
it wanting, and have sent representa-
tiYes who held tie same views. Which
is the most probable?
Prohibition may have worked Won
ders in Kansas. That is long ways
off and distance may lend enchant-
ment. What about an article on
"What Prohibition done in Georgia"
A great many Lexington County peo-
pie have been in Georgia since prohi-
bition laws have been on it's books.
They can tell you about the open bar
rooms and brewery in Augusta, the
clubs and restaurants in Macon, the
barrooms and worse dives in Savan-
nah; and in Columbus the barrooms
and waterfront dens that under Ii
cense were not allowed, and the same
story comes from every city and town
in the state. What is their excuse?
They say with Dispensary states on
two sides and a license state on one
side they cannot control the traffic.
How much worse is it with single
"dry" county, like Lexington sand
wiched in between two Dispensary
counties. If a whole State like Georgia
acknowledges it's inability to cope with
the situation and compromises with a
system of fines at stated intervals that
virtually amounts to license, on what
is there to base claim that prohibition
is the best thing and can be enforced
in county like Lexington, deeply in
debt, with no money to pay it's current
expenses, and certainly none to fight
and control the traffic in intoxicants
within it's borders.
