also how life on the farm may be made
attractive and enjoyable and thorough
ly worth while. Taking all in all, Mr..
Center is easily one of the foremost
men in America in the big construc-
tive work of agricultural extension
and improvement of rural conditions.
1t is the intention of the board of
education and the board of regents of
the university to coordinate the ac-
tivities on the demonstration farms,
the work of the field experts in animal
husbandry, horticulture, entomology
pure seed and irrigation experts,
county agricultural. experts, home eco
Monies. boys and girls club work and
all other forms of university agricu-
ture extension. Through this o-ordi-
nation it is intended that service shall
be given to every rural community in
the state. Moreover 1t is expected
that all the workers of the extension
field will be brought into close and in
innate relation to the departments in
the agricultural college and to the pro-
gressive research workers in the eX-
pertinent station. On the one hand,
this will keep the extension workers
in close and vital relationship to the
teaching and research centers and on
the other it will intimately relate the
teachers and the research Investigators
to the practical and important prob
lens throughout the great state of
Idaho.

A shooting scrape occurred at the
farm OF r. s. Peet last Sunday morn +
ing, between Mr. Peet and Charles

both had guns, but it is impossible to
ascertain who started the fight. Mr..
Bangs received a flesh wound in the
neck near the jugular vein.

exchanged few shots a neighbor
Mr. Farmer, who was the only wit

Mr.. Peet has been arrested and
placed under bonds to appear before
the court but up to the time of going

WOULD POSTPONE THE
PAVING ASSESSMENT

The postponement of the payment Of
paving assessments in district No. Is
from fall until spring If possible was
proposed by Councilman Eichelberger
at the council session yesterday after
noon and favored by the remainder of
the members. provided that such a
method Is permissible. The assess
ment in the district is due this fall
and amounts to about $4,000, while
the bonds of the district are not due
until spring Councilman Eichelber-
ger took the position that it was not
right to tie up the peoples money sew
eral months at two and onehalf per
cent interest and it should not be COL
lected until just before the bonds were
due. The city attorney was instructed
to look into the matter and ascertain
if postponement was legal.
The council divided, four to one,
upon the payment of $3.50 to James
O'Connor, former police sergeant. for
four days pay, which he demanded
after being put out of office by Chief
Robinson. While he did not perform
the services OF sergeant for the city
he was ready and willing to do so and
had not been removed by the council.
Councilman Harrington fought the
payment of the bill, declaring it was
unjust and should not be paid and
voted against the payment. Eichel-
berger felt that it was a just bill as
O'Connor should not have been re-
moved by the chief until action was
taken by the council Other members
felt that under the law the money had
to be paid and voted to pay the bill.

oint out this difference


Something about Chicago being a
prairie city makes it grow and de-
velop along puzzling lines, so that
New York subways dug in Chicago
would tizzle out and go bankrupt and
all chances for city ownership would
be tied up in the courts.
To show how the Hearst-Harrison
plan falls down from the money
standpoint, Deuther asks people to
look over the routes laid out for the
tunnels. These routes go through
the I'd, 18th, 21st, 22d, 23d and 9th
wards, and all of these wards have
the most thickly populated districts
in the city inside their boundaries.
and the census of 1910 tells us that
the population in them ran down
from 8 to II per cent in ten years.
The Sd, 4th, 10th and 18th wards
grew only from 1 to Z per cent"
Against these heavily-populated
wards where population is on the go
ing down or at a standstill, Deuther
shows the 9th, 34th and 35th wards
with increases of population running
over $50 per cent in ten years. In
these fast-increasing wards" he says,
"the subway barely touches. The sit
uation is that the districts through
which the subways will run increase
only in population at their terminus
and beyond"
By comparing elevated road sta
tons at Wilson avenue and HaIsted
street, he shows that the elevated
roads get most of their traffic from
the far-out districts. After showing
other elevated stations with the same
record, he builds up an argument
that subways in order to make money
would be compelled to depend on peo-
pie who ride from outlying districts,
not from those heavily populated and
closer in toward the loop.
''The important thing to consider
is whether it is financial possibility

DEUTHER HANDS A GOOD SEVERE JOLT TO THE
H.H. COMPREHENSIVE SUBWAY SCHEME

Inc nerCeSt JOLT tnat anybody mas
yet taken at the Hearst-Harrison
comprehensive subway scheme
comes today from Tomaz F. Deuther,
secretary of the Greater Chicago
Federation.
Deuther takes three different slants
at the plan. For one thing, he calls it
a "delusion," a bugaboo showed to
the front by Sam insult and other
traction multimillionaires "for the
sole purpose of trying to brighten the
elevated roads to come off from their
high figures on the valuation of the
physical properties
Second, he makes the claim that
Chicago is spread over so much ter
ritory that lone might as well con-
slider an underground trolley to San
Francisco as to build city-wide sub
ways for the measly sum of $780,
100000 proposed by the Hearst-Har-
riSon crowd.
Over a billion dollars will be need
ed to construct subways impartial to
all districts"
81 would place the cost at from ST.
100000, 900 to 81, 400, 100000, and the
figures are conservative when you
consider that Chicago has 200 square
miles of territory" says Deuther.
"a comprehensive subway cannot
pay simply because of the fact that
we have not enough people to support
it" he goes on. New York has an
average of 100000 people to the
square mile in population while Chi
cago has II, 1000 as its average. The
most congested district in Chicago |
shows about $4,000 in one square |
mile, and there are no two such con-
gested districts in the city. New York |
almost doubles one square mile of |
population in Chicago. And some of |
the New York districts that are thick
est with people have as high as 190.-
600 to 100000 to the square mile.

ALASkA'S VOID ACTS.

In the opinion of the attorney gen acts for raising revenue passed by the territorial legislature of Alaska are void, because the acts provided for the work of collecting taxes to be done by the federal officers of the territory, instead of providing a number of addi ional officers for the purpose. The Alaska laws provided that commissioners and clerks of courts should do this collecting, and made provision for their payment. The organic act for the territory pro- vides that no federal officials shall hold office under the government of the territory.
 The opinion of the attorney general is severely technical, but the prob abilities are that the courts will take the same view. There are two rem edies, one the calling of an extra ses- sion of the legislature and the pass age of a law creating the necessary new offices, with provision for filling them and paying the officers. The other, simpler, far more economical and far better, would be for congress to pass simple act giving validity to the laws passed by the Alaska leg islature.
 There are precedents in abundance for this. It was a common practice, when their were a number of terri torial legislatures and when territor- ial courts had decided against some necessary legislation because conflict ing in form with the organic act of the territory, to appeal to congress to reena"t il, which congress almost uni reenact it, which congress almost uni formly did.
 There are no valid reasons why ex- isting federal officers, like court clerks and commissioners, should not do ,h.s tax collecting for the terri tory. instead of requiring the creation of similar number of salarfed off cers, to be paid out of the tax re ceipts. On any direct presentation of the facts it is hard to see how any member of congress could find an ob- lection to interpose to an act to vali- date the acts of the Alaska legisla- ture.--Seattle Post-lntelligencer.

NOT THE DANCE, BUT THE
 DANGERS.

In all the heated and protracted ar gument concerning the tango and other lately devised dances, it is to be noted that condemnation comes chiefly from persons whose habits of thought and standards of conduct i'm. pei them to denounce dancing as pastime whenever opportunity offers, and that, in the sane judgment of un- prejudiced observers, the new dances are objectionable or not according to the way they are danced. The tan go can be graceful and beautiful dance, it can be, and is, made ugly and vulgar by dancers who lack sense of decency. Precisely the same things could be said, and were said, in former years of the polka and the waltz. An applicable moral. neatly expressed in verse, fingers in the memory:
 Said the Rev Jabez McCotton,
 ''The waltz of the devils begotten!" But Jim made reply:
 Never mind the old guy,
 To the pure almost everything's
 rotten"
 The psychological reason for the recent revival of dancing has not been discovered. Perhaps the popu- larity of the Russian ballet dancers and the new development of theatri- cal dancing gem rally have influenced it somewhat. Perhaps social man had grown overtired of the strain of cares and responsibilities and felt the need of more relaxation than can be obtained by sitting silently to look and listen while other people do things Anyhow. within two years people whose dancing days were ov- CT" have found new dancing days and nights, while youth is dancing more furiously than ever before. That the craze has its comical side is indis- putable, that much of the dancing one sees is pretty poor dancing nobody will deny; but that the contemporary dance is essentially immoral Is not true. Every dancer is not satyr O,
