SCHOOL FOR BILL POSTERS.
They Must Know Where to Post Bills
How to Post Them and Why.
(New York Sun

To watch Il sign tacker as he non
chalantly puts lacks on a magnetized
hammer and pins some placard or oth,
err to a convenient barn door, one might
arrive at the conclusion that the sign
poster follows a neasy profession. That
however, is not the case,
/ The sign poster, whether he works
with the magnetized hammer or the
sloppy, paste besmirt ned brush. is
hampered by multiplicity of details
and bales of red tape,
In cities bill posting has been CLASH
fed and card indexed and the bill pos
ter is free from many Of the vexatious
details that beset his brother worker
who travels over the country tackins
signs to fence posts and pasting pos
tiers on wooden bridges.
A patent medicine company with a
we'll organized squad of bill posters
conducts a bill posting school each year
before the squad takes the green paste
and goes to work. Psychological prob
lens engross the students. Thus:
Q. On which end Of the barn Is the
best place to put up the poster? A
On the end where the poster will be
seen by those travelling toward town
O. Why? A. They're the ones witt

@, At about what height should tho
ordinary poster be placed? A. Five

of departed glories after the circus ha

IDAHO FIRST STATE
BUILT At EXPOSITION
is WELL UNDER
WAY-IDAHo COMMISSIONER
IS DOING GOOD WORK.
(San Francisco CalD

Our neighbor state of Idaho-Which
has kinship with California even
though our state lines are separated
by another commonwealth-isf first at
he Panama Pacific international ex-
position. The Idaho building for 1915
was the first state building started and
Is now one-half complete so swift Is
the construction pace at the fair
grounds. Major Fred R. Reed, Idaho
executive commissioner to the Pana-
ma Pacific exposition, Is one Of the
most valiant of the boosters now IN
San Francisco, and Is working not on
" for his state, but for all the states
Vt the northwest to line them up at the
EXPOSITION.
Idaho Set tho Pace.
Oregon led in the 1915 rivalry, and
It's motto, "Oregon first" was vindicat-
ID by 1t being the state first to dedi-
cate site at the exposition. How
,ver, through a set Of fortunate cir
cumstances, Idaho has surpassed our
1orthern neghbor ah1 Is ahead Of all
other states. Even the California
counties building-which may be con-
sidered, in a sense the California state
building--has not yet shown Its lines
on the grounds. So Idaho Is setting
| he example for the whole United
States, including California, in expedi-
ent construction.
Idaho has an appropriation Of $780,
900 for the exposition, and 1t intends
to make that sum do much to open up
the state. 1t looks to 1915 as its OPP
oortunity, and 1t is significant that its
exposition commissioner, Major Reed,
is also commissioner Of immigration
labor and statistics Of the state. The
whole west sees clearly the relation
between the opening Of the Panama
canal, the Panama Pacific information
al exposition and the opening Of the
Pacific slope.
Benefits From tho Big Fair.
No western state yet has a fraction
Of the people 1t can support. Nc
western state has yet q fraction OF the
people its lands need to give them
proper development.
The Panama canal will bring the
Pacific slope within the ken Of the
world, place it in juxtaposition to Eur
,pe. The Panama Pacific information
al exposition will make San Francisco
the clearing house for the Pacific
slope. Here the states that are to bf
hnneftted will assemble with theil
products and their Inequalities anf
greet the newcomer explain to hin
their many virtues and their wonder
fil possibilities, and send him on th'
interior Of California. to oregon, L
Idaho to Washington, to Utah, Il
Nevada. to Colorado, as the case ma!
be.
The Panama canal and the Panama
Pacific exposition give the west III
greatest opportunity for quick devel
opment since the discovery Of gold.

JUVENILE HIGH FINANCE

It Is not necessary to mention hei
she Is a daughter Of one Of the first
families Of Virginia.; and one charac-
teristic of these same first families l.;
apt to be an utter carelessness Of that
which pays for your daily bread and
mine, which furnishes the means by
which this government Is conducted
and which keeps us all out Of the poor
house-money.
She was just rising II, this little
maid, two years ago, when her father
first noticed her lack of interest in
things financial Starting as a bare
foot boy because of the prodigality OF
his progenitors, he had drifted north
worked for bare living at whatever
he could get to do, developed an abil-
| ity, studied, worked and climbed until
at last he found himself a success and
was able to spend about 10000 a year
for the maintenance of himself and the
wife and child he had accumulated
Then, said the wise papa to himself
remembering his days of poverty and
stress: Il must teach her to save even
| as had to save years ago and as she
may have to save in her years yet tt
come"
He tried several plans, which need
not be catalogued here, all Of which
failed to have any good effect. Just
year ago he hit upon a scheme which
seemed to have merit.
Here, Boots" he said. II want tc
make proposition to you.
This Is what l propose: l Will give
you a brand new dollar bill every Sat.
urday night, and 1.wil write the date
upon each one. At the end Of the yea
I want you to show me how many o
those actual dollar bills you have, ant
for every one you can show me l viii
give you two. Do you think you cal
make money that way?"
The child thought she could, and re
peated the conditions as well as he
mind grasped them, but her fathe
thought she did not get them accur
ately.
"Wait," he said, "Ill write it out 81
there can not be any error"
So he wrote.
II will give you a new one dollar bill
every Saturday night. l will write tn
date on each one as I give it to you

MINORS IS OR OVER
MAY FILE HOMESTEAD
GOOD AMENDMENT BY ADDISON
SMITH THAT MAY PASS
THIS SESSION..

Representative Smith feels greatly
encouraged over the prospect of Sc
curing the enactment, during the pres
ent session of congress, of his bill ex-
tending the benefits of the public land
laws to minors over Is years Of age.
\ canvass Of the members Of con-
grcss indicates that the sentiment Is
generally favorable to the amendment
suggested to the public hand laws,
I AS final proof could not be offered
under the proposed law until the APP
pllcant reaches the age Of "a years no
aid objection has been offered.
Mr., Smith contends that the enact
ment of this law would result in
thousands of young men who are anx
ious to get home, settling on the
public lands, who otherwise would
turn their attention to securing iN-
ing rs wage earners in the towns and
cities, and that It would accomplish
much toward encouraging young men
to enter upon agricultural pursuits.
Smith Addresses Law Students.
/ Representative Addison Smith de-
livered an interesting address to the
students of the Georgetown law school
on the evening of the 10th, which was
greatly enjoyed by the young men,
especially because of the fact that Mr.
Smith himself attended the law school

FARMERS At RUPERT
ON DEMOCRATIC TARIFF
RESOLUTIONS SHOW FARMER TO
BE THE GOAT-WANT Dor.
An FOR PRESIDENT.

Evidently the farmers Of south 1ea-
no are feeling the pinch Of democratic
free trade. At Rupert, county seat Of
Minidoka county and the most i'm
portant town on the Minidoka govern
ment irrigated tract, the republicans
have gotten together and formed a
Borah Republican club, of which, by
the way. Lester Boyer. formerly clerk
in the county auditors office here, Is
secretary. The reasons, for the organ
ization of the club will be found in the
following resolutions.
The Real Progressive Party.
Whereas, it Is our firm belief that
the history of the republican party
shows that 1t Is the true progressive
party Of the United States. and that
all progressive legislation now on the
statute books Of the United States and
Of the state of Idaho was placed there
by the republican party. and
Whereas, the republican party has
always stood for prosperity and Jus
tice alike to capital and labor and Its
efforts have been conducive to the
general prosperity of all the people
of the United States and Of the state
OF Idaho, and
Whereas, 1t Is our firm belief that
the present conditions Of the United
States demand a return to power OF
the republican party and the princi-
pies for which 1t has stood during it's
existence, and
Whereas, 1t is our belief that the
present deplorable Industrial cond-
lions all over the United States. and
the thousands Of men who are now
idle and without work or food is due
to the democratic tariff bill and
Bad for the Farmers.
Whereas, the farm products Of
America have been placed upon the
free list or the tariff reduced so low
that 1t does not give to the farmers Of
this country ample protection against
the farm products Of foreign countries,
and
Whereas, the farm products ~
the state Of Idaho have been so af-
fected by the democratic tariff bill
that In many instances price has al
ready been reduced below the cost of
production and
Whereas, we believe the pres
ent tariff bill to be the most vicious
and indefensibe piece of legislation
| that was ever enacted against the
American farmer, and
| "Whereas, we do not believe there
can be any prosperity or any great
development in Idaho with our pro-
ducts upon the free list, and
"Whereas. we do not believe that
prosperity will return to Idaho with
out proper protection TO her indus
tries; therefore, be it
Borah for President.
"Resolved, that we hereby form our
selves into a Rorah Republican club.
and do invite the citizens Of the state
Of Idaho to join with us In this
movement for the purpose OF placing
the republican party back in power
and reunting the great forces Of our
