Delightfully."- Entertained An Hallews'e 'en,

N~ ~~7~~~~ ~N9F
! The beautiful home of Mr. and
Mrs. P. w. Mitchell in vest Nez-
perce was given over completely to
halloween festivities last Saturday
evening, when hrs Mitchell enter
tanned about thirty guests ia honor Of
Misses Schultz, vanOrden and Stew
enson of the public school faculty.
The guests we're received In real
eerie style BY q very gracious ghost
who ushered them into the parlors
which were deliberately decorated
with jack o. lanterns, black cat de-
signs and Oregon chrisansnenums.
Here a most excelIently arranged
program Of mirth-producing games
and "bewitching" frolics interspersed
with charming musical selections
sped the hours on magic wings until
the clock suggested the time when
schurch-yards yawn'' and goblins
are most disposed to gobble. Then,
in pairs, the assemblage sought the
place of dining-a large room up
stairs. .weirdly decorated With stream
ers of white and black, the festive
paraphernalia spread upon the Aoor,
and jack o. Lanterns casting fantastic
shadows over all. Gathered, Turk
ish-style, about this spread upon the
aoor the guests did ample justice to
very wholesome two-course luncheon
and tried out fortunes and like anus
ing stunts the while.
The evening vas indeed q happy
one beneath that roof, AMI passed all
loo quickly.
Those present we're:
Misses Nelson, Nilsson. Lowry,
Martin, Ramey, Amanda and Borg
hid Hoff, Schultz. Stevenson and
VanOrdcn.

SIX MONTHS OF FREE TRADE
SHOWS LOSS OF SIS, 000, 900. 90
Revenue is Lost, Labor is Unemploy-
ed and Prosperity Stopped.

Six months of the Underwood tariff
law have more than justified every
prediction made by the protectionists,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Presi-
dent Wilson's idea that it would be a
good plan to put the wits of the
American manufacturer against the
world" is shown to be failure. In
the last six months the nation has
lost SIS 100000 in customs revenue.
1t is believed that the losses will be
heavier in the ensuing six months,
since the wooden schedule has been
in operation only three months, so
that experts of the treasury were very
nearly correct in their figures.
In the six months we have lost in
exports and gained in imports. We
have imported $54,000,000 less of raw
materials or materials for further
manufacture than in the correspond
ing FIVE months of the previous year.
In the same period our exports OF
000, 000-a net loss to this country
trade. This net loss falls upon the
workers in American mills and fac
tories. Our wits" have not met with
(nOSe dDTOdu IOT the SllupIC lCdSOH
that our men will not work for such
low wages as are paid abroad. The
showing for the month of March is
the worst of all, and there is no pro-
spect for a change for the better.
The government is $50,000,0OO be
hind in its balance sheet for the fiscal
year to date. Appropriations are on
higher scale than ever, while the
prosperity of the country is being as
sailed on every side. That conditions
are no worse is due to the fact that
our manufacturers have been doing
their best to meet conditions. They
have seen their profits cut down and
vanish, but they have kept on because
they did not wish to see their organ
ization broken up. Many thousands
of employees have been discharged
This city has more idle men than any
time in a past generation.
1t was as plain as anything coulc
be six months ago that such would be
the results, but the academic legisla.
| tors at Washington believed that BY
law they could make three and three
make seven.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1914-05-01

can be no argument over it. How
ever, the surplus may be disposed of,
the owner will have none of it in any
personal sense. If he invests it for
profit he may derive satisfaction from
having the title in his own name and
from seeing the principal grow. But
that satisfaction will consume moth
ing and cost the rest of us nothing.
His ownership does not diminish the
sum total by one iota. The surplus
with all its proceeds for reinvestment,
and the question at the moment is
whether society will be best served
by having the owner invest it and
manage it and increase it, or having
him dissipate it by gratuitous distribu-
ton, as in the case at hand"
1t is this reinvestment of incomes
and the establishment of new indus
tries and factories that has had such
great part in raising the standard
of living in this country and through
out the world.
Mr.. Roberts illustrates this point
in the following manner:
Let us see what ownership
amounts to: The richest person in
the state of Oklahoma is said to be
an Indian girl, her quarter section of
land from the tribal allotment con-
tanning one of the best oil pools in
the United States. But she does not
have the exclusive use either of the
oil or its proceeds. She will have
what she wants to eat and wear for
her personal comfort and pleasure,
but with sensible people these wants
are limited by other considerations
than mere ability to buy. Beyond these
let us suppose that her income is in
vested in railway bonds; it is then de-
voted to improving the railway facili-
ties of the community, which is ad-
vantageous to everybody. But, some
one will say the community must pay
her for the use of these facilities. And
this is where the confusion arises, for
in truth she receives nothing from
them. Her own wants being already
provided for, her income from these
public utilities will be devoted to pro-
viding other public utilities, as GER
tainly as though the ideal socialistic
state was established; and even the
socialistic state would have to raise
new capital continually. This girl will
have the title deeds to an increasing
amount of property, but the public
will have the use of the property. In
cidentally she will pay super-income
tax, but it is noteworthy that none OF
the tax will be taken from that por-
ton of her income devoted to her
personal uses; every dollar will come
from the portion destined to public
use"
Comparatively few persons have un-
derstood this phase of political eco
nomy, but are inclined to jump to the
conclusion, without giving the subject
passing thought, that large incomes
are wasted, and consequently are a
detriment to the body polite instead
of benefit to it.

PLATFORM CONVENTIONS
WILL Be HELD LAST
TUESDAY IN JUNE

Tuesday, June 30th, is the day fixed
by law when the representatives of
the political parties of the state will
meet in state convention for the pur-
pose of adopting a platform. AS to
the eelction of delegates to these con-
.ventions the law says:
''The county central committee of
each county shall meet nthe second
Tuesday of June prior to the primary
election and elect delegates belonging
to the same political party to attend
a state platform convention of such
party, to be held at the time and
place here in provided. The number
of delegates to be elected by such
county central committee shall be a
number equal to three times the num-
Der of state representatives to be
elected from such county at the gen
eral election therein for that year
No proxies shall be allowed in such
convention, but the members of the
delegation from each county in actual
attendance shall be entitled to cast
the full vote of such delegation on all
questions arising in such convention.
The primary law as amended pro-
vides also for the election of county
committee in each county, to be made
up of one member from each pre-
cinct elected directly by the party
voters of the precinct, but as this pro-
vision of the law does not become OPP
erative until after the next primary
the delegates to the states conven-
tons this year will be chosen by the
old county committee.
All parties must meet on the same
day and promulgate their platform Of
principles on the same day. There
will be no holding back by any party
to take advantage of the errors Of
others. On this point the new law
says:
THAT state platform conventions Of
all political parties, subject to the pro-
visions of this act, shall meet at the
seat of state government at IL o'clock
m. on the last Tuesday of June before
the primary election, and shall forth
with organize and by majority vote
adopt and promulgate the party prin,
ciples and declarations OF their re.
spective parties, and shall within
three days after the assembling file Z
copy of such platform with the sec
rotary of state, which copy shall b.
certified as the platform of such poll
teal party by the chairman and sec
rotary of such convention"

REGARDING LARGE INCOMES

In the current number of the Re-
view of Reviews, there is very in
teresting article by Mr.. George E.
Roberts, director of the mint, en-
titled: "The Distribution of Surplus
Incomes"
"Mr. Roberts attention" says the
Butte Miner, was attracted to this
subject by the recent action of large
automobile manufactures in dividing
up half of his last years profit,
amounting to $lQ0O0,0OO, with his
employees.
"He takes the position that even
though Mr.. Ford had not done this
his great income would not have been
wasted if he had retained it.
The writer points out that an in.
dividual can only spend a limited
amount annually for his living ex
penses, and the surplus income ovei
this amount finds reinvestment II
various industrial enterprises, which
in turn, provide employment for lot
of others and adds naturally to thu
wealth of the world.
Actually, the person who has
large income does not keep it idle
/. but puts most of it right back int
productive channels.
Mr.. Roberts makes his position
clear upon this point when he says:
at is agreed that $l0,OOOO0O
more than one man can use for hi
own benefit. This is evident; Their

HOMEDALE AND FARGO
HAVE 1T IN FOR CALDWELL
Bring up Matter of Creation of New
County to Get Away.

According to the Homedale Empire
Press ANY way to get away from
Caldwell seems to be the slogan of
the taxpayers in that part of Canyon
county which is adjacent to Homedale
and the Gem district. They propose
to create a new county and thereby
get little representation along with
their taxataion. If new county can
not be created they desire to be an
nexed to Owyhee county
This expression of opinion was OBJ
tanned at recent meeting OF the
Commercial club of Homedale last
week, and according to the Express
was sprung by Fargo people" The
paper continues, 1T came as sur
prise to most of those in attendance
but after it had been thoroughly dis
cussed everyone seemed to be in ia
vor of it and committees were APP
pointed to make Investigations II
is believed that plans can be worked
out whereby the new county can o'
created without working any injustice
to the remaining parts OF the two
counties.
"If a new county cannot be created
if seems to be the desire of the people
in the Canyon county portion to hav'
their territory annexed to Owyhe'
county. The proposition will be tax
en- up by the Crescent Valley, Com
mercial club this Saturday night. ans
another meeting will be held a
Homedale next Monday night. IN
last legislature created new lay
whereby the taxpayers could vote @
! county divisi m propositions and thii
act is the on under which the peopl
desiring this new county will work.
