temporary benefit. This is discourage

that has earned a reputation for last

of its merit right here in Boise.
Here is the testimony of one who
used Doan's Kidney Pills years ago, and
now makes her testimony even stronger.
Mrs. e. III. Stotler, 407 Thatcher ST.,
Boise, Idaho, says: "One of my family
suffered off and on for three or four
years from pain In his back. Some
times he was SO weak that he could
hardly straighten. He finally got
Doan's Kidney Pills at the Joy Drug
Stores, as he had heard them recon-
mended by Boise people who had used
them. He took them faithfully and
they worked like magic, giving quick
and lasting relief"

CARELESS LAW
MAKING

The state and national legisla
lures. Senator Root told the Ameri
can Bar Association the past week
passed 62,014 laws during the past
hve years. Mr.. Root made a plea
for more careful work drafting laws.
and for less of what he called "slop-
by legislation"
The writer had occasion some time
ago to consult the statute book Of
one of the states, which required
1900 pages to record its new laws for
the year 1913. The statute book of
the same state for the year 1880 In.
cluded only $40 pages. So grows the
crop OF laws. While many foolish
acts are passed still new interests
have forced new enactments. The
legislatures of 1880 did not have to
spend time regulating the speed OF
automobiles, nor charges of tele.
phone companies.
A few years ago, a certain Unit.
ed States senator was overheard
talking with vehemence. "When
the people rise In their might and
demand law Of this kind" he re-
marked. concerning the agitation for
certain statute, 1T Is useless to
oppose them"
"But what will such law amount
toY" inquired by stander.
Nothing whatever" replied the
senator. "The people will then turn
their attention to something else, and
forget all about it,"

with the reply that the question of

COLLECTING ELECTION
RETURNS

Methods of collecting election re
turns have made great advance dur
Ing recent years. since telephone
lines have been pushing out into
lonely neighborhoods.
A few years ago a large part of the
returns had their first relay in some
farmers wagon or livery team. A
local newspaper or the city dailies
would arrange to have some one
hitch up old Dobbin and drive to the
nearest telephone instrument. II the
votes did not happen to get counted
until after dark, 1t might be morning
before the cautious messenger felt
like taking Journey over rough
roads.
me efficiency of collecting returns
varies greatly in different states and
congressional districts. In some 10.
calities, newspapers and public offic.
ials make 1t a sporting event to get
their news on the wire at the earli.
est possible moment. Complete re.
turns from large and scattered dis.
tricts are often secured by 6 pm.
on election day. In others, a habit
of delay is common, which keeps can.
didates and the public on the anxious
seat for days, If returns are close.
In most cases. there is no reason
for slow collection OF returns. In
almost all remote districts the tele.
phone Is now SO ubiquitous that a
few hours ride should connect with
the news. agencies. 1t would seem as
II ~ per cent of the vote Of every
state ought to be on the wire at least
the morning after election, SO that
complete returns should be IN the
newspaper Offices in time for nuh,i.
cation in the evening editions OF
Wednesday.
newspaper correspondents should
reaiize that they do not look hand.

THE newcomer
IN POLITICS

Every year, thousands of college
AMI school graduates are educated tc
take an interest in politics. Under
the leadership of specialized ant
scholarly professors, they are ambi
tious to go down into the dusty poll
teal arena and do battle with the
Gogs and Magogs of public corrup
ton.
After a few bouts with the afore
said tough and battered old giants
the winning Of the conflict does not
look so easy.
Where political conventions are
still held, the novice Is tried out in
the capacity Of one OF the minor
delegates, on some Office where the
results are slated In advance. I'm.
der the primary system, he Is sent
out to some meeting in the outskirts,
to arouse the slumbering voters to
true conception OF the nations peril.
The managers thus learn II he will
stand without hitching.
His first desire is to get a fair and
comprehensive statement of the Is.
sues to the voters. He still has faith
once the issues are clearly made
known, that all thinking men must
see them as he sees them.
Among the political workers, he
hears inquiries with bated breath as
to when, where and how far the can
didate promises to come across.
There are ominous shakes OF the
head II q statesman fails to perceive
his duty and do 1t. AS to issues, well
those are stock In trads to get In on.
Nine out of ten young fellows, when
brought thus in contact with low
aims, quit In disgust, and forever re-
main aloof. But once In while
there comes along a man with big.
ger point of view. He sees that while
the money grabbers Tay contro! the
little pickings, the large prizes rare
Iy go twice in succession to that kind
of man. They go to the one who
is big enough. patient enough, toler
ant enough. to see that In the long
run frankness and sincerity pay In
politics, just as they pay in bust
ness.
