Was A Dandy Auto Trip

Rev. Father Gregory, of st.
Meinrad Seminary at St. Mein-
rad, Ind, arrived in the city last
Friday evening and remained un-
til Sunday as guest of the fathers
at the monastery and of Father
Odilo, the local pastor. On Sun
day Father Gregory, accompan-
led by Father Berthold, left in
company with H. H. Nuxoll, P.
A. Gaul and the writer, for Lew
iston in Mr.. Nuxoll's big car,
with Frank Nuxoll at the wheel.
The trip down was made across
the mountain by beautiful Waha
Lake and was most enjoyable,
the run into Lewiston being made
in four hours. Rev. Fathers
Gregory and Berthold left that
evening for Seattle, Portland and
Mt. Angel, the others returning
home by way of Lapwai and
Culdesac and reaching home at
1890 P. M.
The auto trip was a most en-
joyable one to all and Frank ham
dies the car like a veteran, max
the entire run without mishap
and driving with great care
though still making fine time.
The car, which is a 35-h. p.
Studebaker of latest model, is a
dandy and made the steep grades
without apparent effort'and rum
ring almost noiselessly on good
roads. In fact, the car suits our
fancy fine and if we can manage
to shear good crop of wool from
our hogs next spring we will try
and have one like it.
A. c. Foster and Arthur Bris-
sette spent several days across
the river this week in search of
grouse but report only moderate
success.
New grain is beginning to roll
into town this week in goodly
quantities and in a week or 50
the roads will be lined with teams
hauling the big crop to market.

The writer and family are in
debted to Banker H. H. Nuxoll
for nice auto spin out onto the
prairie Tuesday evening in the
latter's car. Mr.. Nuxoll has one
of the finest cars on the prairie
and is not backward about letting
his friends enjoy it with him in
frequent evening trips, which
are mighty pleasant to say the
least.
John Baer shipped out two cars
of hogs and one of cattle from
this point to Spokane Tuesday
morning, the cattle coming from
the Eugene Andrews place on
Salmon river. The hog market
is off again for a few days and
p cents is the best price now Of
fered but it is believed the price
will soon be back again to former
figures, as market conditions do
not justify the present low fig
ure.
E. w. Stewart, who has been
in the city for the past three
weeks looking after the big Boise
automobile which broke down
here some time ago, left Wednes-
day evening with his employer
for Grangeville, presumably en-
route home to Boise by way of
the state road up Salmon river.
Stewart was somewhat of a puz-
zle here, remaining for some
time after his car was repaired
and posing as a private detective
and general man of mystery.

Ballasting Track to Reubens

The ballasting of the local rail-
way grade was completed to this
place last week and the trains
are now at work scattering the
crushed rock along the grade be-
tween this place and Reubens.
Dole & Collins, who are crushing
the rock for use on the road, are
working about seventy men at
present at their crusher north of
town and are getting out from
500 to 700 yards of rock every
twenty-four hours. Even at this
rate they will be kept busy COM
pleting their contract before bad
weather sets in this fall.

THE iMPLAcABLES.

If the views of regular" organs
like the Chattanooga Times and the
jackson Jacksonian are to obtain IN
the councils of that faction next year
il is idle to discuss party unification
The Jacksonian has declared that no
democrat who supported Hooper ana
prohibition would be acceptable to the
so-called regulars and comes now
the Chattanooga Times with the adj
mission that it would no longer be
regular" if the democratic party
should declare in favor Of state wide
prohibition. Manifestly the demo-
cratic party coud not expect to be re-
stored to power If it does not do that
very thing. Does 1t expect always
and eyerlastingly to walk through a
slaughter house to the open grave?
But in spite of the Times and the
Jacksonian the democratic party in
next years contest is going to stand
for the prohibition of the liquor traf-
fic. Not only that but it will make a
strong and emphatic announcement
in favor Of the enforcement OF the
LIQUOR and all other laws. 1t will
also nominate candidate who VIII

people that these platform declara-

out it's threat to bolt" we shall see
next year just how hollow its profes

ty have been. For it is going to have
the very opportunity that it does mol
desire. Where it will go we cannot
at this time foresee. It is certain
that the republicans will emphaticai
w declare for prohibition and law en-
fodcement; and we are equally con
yinced that the democrats will do thu
same thing. 1t will then be UP to thu

"The thing for the Democrats 70

A TALKING FACTORY.

Declaring that Hobson should not
be sent to the senate of the United
States, because he talks too much,
the esteemed Louisville Courier Jour-
nal gives us this very interesting bit
of information: 1.-THE senate is not
fond OF gable"
Since when has our stern and aus
tere and reverend senate set its race
against talk? The Louisville papers
observation will be news to most OF
us. A body that can talk on dry
and musty and dusty and tedious SUD
iect like the tariff for nearly six long
and weary months, enduring the
while the torrid temperature OF
Washington in midsummer. certainly
cannot be accused of an aversion to
! "gabble." The senate of ours in un'
doubtedly the most august assembly
upon earth" and the greatest dell
berate body" in the world, for we
have the testimony OF the senate u
that effect, but it is likewise the
greatest talking machine ever ye
devised by the mind of man. Th'
senate fairly dotes on talk. 1t talk
when there is reason for talk ant
it talks when there is no occasion
for talk. Members speak there b.
the day whereas everywhere else Il
the world the length of speech /
measured in minutes. The fact tina
Hobson is long winded, that he is a
everlasting and ineessant taike
makes him eminently fitted to sit

His attitude was that of The Her

Should the supreme court sustain
all of the lower courts that nave
nassed on the constitutional ques'
tions SO far raised against the cleo
ton law of 1913, the enactment OF
Gov. Hooper's nuisance bill would
be mighty small and inadequate com
pensation for the disaster that woulc
oyertake the cause of good govern

of the new election law would b'
about the worst calamity that coult
befall the temperance cause in thi
state. That is why Judge PITTS
Senator Lea, Col. Amis and tn
other gentlemen who agreed to tn
compromise with Crump were righ

Aside from the correctness Q

that he frankly avows his conectio

TIE SINGLE STANDARD.

Dr Ira Landreth spoke the plain,
nnvarnished truth when at Culleoka
the other night he told the women
that they, more than the men were
responsible for the double moral
standard that is not only a menace

per to the future physical well be-
ing of the race. If the women OF
this country would set their faces
like flint against the man who ex-
acts a standard of woman tnat ne

soon see a remarkable improvement
in the lives of our men. NOT only
that but the good effects will be 1eit
by generations not yet born. just
why a woman is the most unchari-
table being in the world toward nef
own hayward sister, and the most
forgiving and lenient toward the
masculine reprobate is problem
that we do not undertake to solve
Hut we do know that her attitude is
utterly indefensible. She owes
duty to society, to tine children that
are to come hereafter to change hel
viewpoint. A tremendous amount o
