square with the Church's morality.
These are they who leave the Church,

Here is an incident from real life,
which will more than likely appeal to
you like glimpse Of familiar friend.
No doubt you have been similarly sit
uated.
A typical breakfast scene, i'll typi-
cal prosperous American home-in any
small city. Already the four seated at
the round table are merged into the
days absorbing interests. Father is
slipping his loffee and running through
the news. Mother is opening her mail.
The son and daughter, both i'll the high
school, are absorbing breakfast food
and occasional glimpSes ut the note
books beside their plates. Nothing like
q last glance at the days first recita-
ton. The silence of individual con-
centration rests upon the quartet.
Suddenly with groan, father filings
aside the paper. The others look up.
Who has failed? What has gone wrong
in the business world?
Mothers thoughts fly to the tea for
which she has just issued invitations.
OF course, they can be recalled. The
son thinks of his fraternity dance, a
girl, with appealing eyes, violets, a
cab. The daughters wonders If this
means that she is to be denied the
promised camping trip.
John" murmurs his wife, what
has gone WrOng?"
'Burnhams dead-died yesterday at

leaving the omelet untouched.

MAKING INFIDELS.

College circles have been somewhat
stirred up over an editorial in the
Presbyterian, the official organ of
tho Presbyterians, in which it is as
serted that infidelity is being taught
at Princeton. The editorial runs:
Those who join in the class Of
Prof. Miller will be instilled with in
fidelity, both as to the Scriptures and
the Lord Jesus Christ. He believes
in the divinity of neither, and has
publicly declared his unbelief. We
know that to such teaching the money
and energy of Princeton is devoted
and the sons of evangelical believers
are exposed.
IF the university cannot be freed
from it's infidelity then the other
Christian denominations should ar
range to follow the example Of Trinity
Episcopal Church at Princeton and
take care of their own boys. This is
no light matter. Parents who send
their sons to Princeton for its high
intellectual advantages are much
concerned about the religious and
moral influence to which they are sub
jected.
"The breaking out of a flood of
heathenism in the nations of Europe
is awakening our American people to
the cause of danger. Bad instruction
in European universities is the real
cause of the European war. Bad in
struction in American universities will
end in some similar breakout in our
own land.
THE trouble with the religious and
biblical work of many of our universe
ties is that it is put into the hands OF
young and inexperienced men, who
either treat it as u matter of expert
ment or q field for the display of
novelties.
princeton also seems to become
the stamping ground for Union
Theological Seminary. With this
repetition of Union Seminarism at
Princeton evangelical Christians will
have to take choice of the trilemma;
either send their boys elsewhere, for
bid them to take the Bible course at
Princeton or yield them up to the
baldest infdelity both with regard to
the Bible and Christ"
What is said of this university is
all too true of many another. Higher
learning with many professors is
synonymous with freethinking. The
Bible has lost it's sacredness, and is
used as an instrument with which to
cut from the heart Of the youth his
religion just at the time when to cope
with the temptations of youth he
needs every possible help.
Knowing with what suspicion the
secular university is rightly regarded
the wonder is that Catholic parents
can with equanimity send their boys
thither. 1t is playing with fire.
What makes it SO reprehensible is
that it is not at all necessary. Our
own universities are wholly as COM
petent, to say the least, to give a
thorough education, with the added
advantage beyond price that in them
the youth is taught the real value of
things and led to seek first the king

MORNING SALVATION TO THE

the writings of st. Gertrude: 81 adore,
praise and salute Thee, o my most
sweet Hear of Jesus Christ; fresh
and gladdening as tho breath of

of graces, sweeter than the honey

the powers of my heart for having
preserved me throughout this night,

Important Meeting.

There will be an important meet
ing OF the potato growers OF this sec
ton at Jerome on Saturday afternoon
OF this week at 2:3O. This meeting
is called by the manager of the Sou
thern Idaho Producers Association,
more especially to take up the ques-
tion of building potato cellars. 1t is
earnestly urged that at this meeting
there be a full attendance of the di-
rectors OF the local association and
as many of the growers as are inter-
ested in providing a place for the
storage of the crop this fall.
1t is proposed at this meeting to
devise some plan for the erection of
storage cellar at Jerome, and in
this connection the general associa-
ton is planning to assist the locals
in every way possible in erecting
these cellars.
At a recent meeting of the board
OF trustees of the Association held at
Pocatello. it was decided to withdraw
from the Pacific Fruit Distributors.
Representatives of the distributors
some time ago announced their opin.
ion that the head sales Office of the
potato department should be situated
at Pocatello. The board of the Sou
thern Idaho Growers Association
have been very favorably impressed
with this need and as result almos
a whole weeks conference was helC
between representatives of the tive
organizations, Mr.. Dechmah beinl
called in from Denver to participate
in the discussion.
Under the new policy there ar
many benefits which will be derived

Navel Ill.

Just at this season of the year
when the young colts are coming on,
the following from the University
News Letter, should be read with in
terest by all who have mares with
foal:
Navel III. or purulent infection of
the navel is a disease peculiar to
young colts. The direct cause of
which is an infection of the newly
ruptured navel cord by pus forming
organisms. This infection takes
place during the first AS hours, at
which time the cord is still moist.
Filthy surroundings during birth as
dirty stable or barnyard, or hand
ling the navel with dirty hands or in
struments are the main means of
bringing the organisms in contact
with the navel.
The first symptoms shown are
swelling of the tissues about the ma
vel, loss of appetite with rapid loss
of flesh soon follow. The joints OF
the limbs become swollen and tender
to the touch, so that the animal will
refuse to stand and suckle. A high
fever is present and an intense diar
rhoea usually develops shortly before
death. which usually occurs during
the second week. The death rate is
about so per cent.
The disease can be prevented to ;
large extent by providing clear

ABOUT THE BONDHOLDERS.

During the past week we have en-
deavored to obtain some authentic
information regarding the proposed
sale at Pittsburg that has a direct
b caring upon the matters connected
with the North Side tract, but up to
date we have been unable to learn
anything definite. From one source
we learn that the sale came off as
anticipated, and that the tract is now
in the hands Of the bondholders.
From still another source which is
Just as reliable we learn that all de-
tails not having been arranged, the
sale has been postponed until the
2Sth day of this month.
AS the press dispatches are silent
on the matter, it is a pretty good in
dication that nothing of a definite
form in this regard has as yet been
accomplished.
Mr.. R. E. Shepherd, the represent
ative of the bond holders, was ex
pected in Jerome last Saturday, bu
the death of his father in the cas-
necessitated a delay in his visit, bui
he is expected to arrive here Satur
day of this week, when it is to bt
hoped that some definite information

The Superscience of Farming.

1t is decidly encouraging to note
that the farmers viewpoint is coming
into prominence, says the Spokesman
Review. The farmers viewpoint is
coming into prominence as a matter
of science as we'll as a matter of suf-
ferance.
There has been altogether too pre-
valent notion that farming has been
conducted wholly on traditional lines
without much attention to the reason
of things. Now the agricultural ex-
perts themselves see that something
is lacking after science has done her
most for farming.
Word comes from the national de-
partment of agriculture that the sci
entists and teachers are in as much
need of the facts and the viewpoint
of the farmers as the farmers need
the facts which the scientists can fur.
nish; that the scientists and teacher.
need to learn the superscience which
farmers call common sense. tha
wholesome wisdom that is the essens'
OF the thought and experience of gen
erations of men who have made gooC
through work and thought and thrift
and unconscious adaptation to cir
cumstances.

TITLE TO WATER RIGHTS.
Idaho Power and Light Co. Given a
Clear Title to Rights on
the Malad River.

Boise, April 20.-A brief summary
OF the cases affecting the water rights
and use of lands for power purposes
on the Malad river recently decided
by Judge Walters of the Fourth ju-
dicial district Is most interesting.
The judge upheld in every particu-
lar the contentious of the Idaho
Power & Light Co. (originally the
Beaver River Power CO.. as against
the claims of the Great Shoshone &
Twin Falls Water Power Co. In the
one case, the Great Shoshone & Twin
Falls Co. had brought an action
against the state of Idaho to con-
denim certain lands near the head of
the Malad river which the company
claimed to need as IT would be over
flowed by the back water from pro-
posed dam. This land was already
claimed by the Idaho Power & Light
Co. under the Wrench permit. the
principal water right of that COM
pany. and also the right of owner
ship Hereunder. with a prior right
in any event of condemnation. The
| action had gone to the extent of ap-
praisers having been appointed and
the appraisement made to condemn
the lands to the Great Shoshone
Company, when the Idaho Power &
Light Co. realized its lands and
rights were involved, as ii had had
no notice of the suit. Immediately
the Idaho Company asked for right
| to intervene. and after evidence was
taken at various points, Judge Walt
ers issued a sweeping decision hold
ing the water rights of the Idaho
Power & Light Co. valid and that the
company has the prior right to the
use of the lands for damsite pur
poses.
The other action upheld the con
tention of the Idaho Power & Ligh
Company that the permit known al
the Pasco b. Carter permit for watel
of the Malad river now held by th'
Great Shoshone Company should b'
cancelled for the reason that thu
agreed amount of work of diversion
had not been done in the time speci
fed and that the permit was takel
out solely for the purpose of harrass
ing the Idaho Power & Light CO
Judge Walters upholds the claim o
the Idaho company in every particu
lar and holds the Carter Permit alb
solutely void.
These decisions in conjunctio
with the decision of Judge Dietric
in the federal court where the sam
: parties were litigants and upholdin

From the figures given to the Pio-

school property of the district was
appraised at $4,000, when the con-
tract on the new building was let for
sS.342. In the above appraisement,
the old building was put in at 5000
in face of the fact that the board
had tried to sell 1t two years previ-
Gus for $500 and there were no TAX
ers. In the division, four-fifths of
the Emerson district was taken away
and given to Lincoln county, thus
leaving one-fifth of the taxable prop
