Build a Good
CIR A N A r Y
This Year

With good crops in sight you
can plan to change your usual
method of hauling grain this
year.
Instead of selling all your grain
from the separator you can store
a part of your crops and sell when
the price is high.
You ought to get your granary
built at once so as to be ready to
protect your grain as soon as it is
threshed.
The best way to build is on a
good cement foundation and floor
that makes it damp and rat
proof.
@~ Our dimension, drop siding and
shiplap will make you splendid
granary and we will be glad to
help you work out any details of
your. plans in which YOU want
help. If price is a big feature
with you, you will find our price
on all the material you get here
entirely satisfactory. ... ....

just think of it, dear peo-
pie, as a result of this years
election you will not have a
cent of state taxes to pay in
the year 1916. We know that
you won't for didn't Nose
Alexander promise, during the
campaign, that he would be
able to 50 conduct the bust
ness of this state that in the
second year of his administra-
tion it would not be necessary
to levy a single dollar of tax
TO keep the wheels of state
government moving. How
this can be done, nobody
knows but Mr.. Alexander, but
he is going to do it for he has
said since his election that he
is going to fulfill every pre-
election promise that he made.
Gee, but won't that be great.
In view of this immense saw
ing, the people of Idaho should
rejoice and be exceedingly
glad. And we suggest that
the people of idaho should
take steps at once towards
having a statue of Nose Alex
ander placed in the Hall Of
Fame at Washing ton.

commended to the legislature.
1t is quite likely that the com
mittee' will ask the legislature
to fix a reasonable price to be
charged by the newspapers
for publishing fac SMILES Of
the ballot in two issues before
the election. Under the pres.
ent law the papers are charg-
ing all the way from $3.50 &c
$500 for this service. While
we believe that it is a gooc
law and should be retained or
the statutes, yet there is nc
question but what it is cost

DESPONDENCY DUE TO
INDIGESTION.

It is not at all surprising that persons

words Of hope and cheer for them by
Mrs. Blanche Bowers, Indiana, Pa.

that could only eat the highest foods.
I tried every thing that / heard of TO
get relief, but not until about a year

At the meeting of the East

sentiment among the members
present was in favor of chang

plans we're agreed upon, but

Two years ago o. v. Allen
and William e. Borah were
candidates on the same ticket.
At the time Mr.. Allen was
suspected of many things of
questionable ethics. He had
pulled off his furniture deal;
he was suspected to have had
traffic with banks and other
financial institutions to his
own personal benefit; he was
suspected of using his office
in every conceivable manner
for his own profit. The only
thing that he had not done
that was a matter of public
knowledge, was to have made
an advantageous loan with the
state. Two years ago Mr..
Borah had nothing to say
against Allen. To have said
"a word would have endan-
gered the political life of the
senator. Mr.. Borah very pa
triotically refrained from com
ment on Allen. 1t took the
now famous loan and two
years of contemplation to
make Senator Borah realize
the enormity of the faults of
Allen. He did not even come
to a realization until after the
primary election. Had Mr..
Lewis or Judge Stevens been
nominated at the primary
election we are of the opinion
that Senator Borah even today
would not have great trouble
in controlling his feelings
when writing Chairman Day
on the Allen affair.
Senator Borah, being safely
slowed away for four years,
took the Allen matter as an
excuse for slamming the whole
Republican ticket. AS the
leading member of the party
and the head of the ticket
Governor Haines suffered
most, keenly. The blow nat
urally fell on him as was cal
culated.
The defeat of Governor
Haines was due only in part
to Borah's sudden activities.
The final disclosures in the
Allen case was the most i'm
portaut factor. Disaffection
on the part of prominent re-
publicans owing to defeat at
the primary and at previous
elections was another cause.
These however do not relieve
Borah. He did the worst he
could. His holy and right
eous Indignation at the time
was simply tommyrot. Cald-
well Tribune.
