OPEN SEASON FOR DUCks.

The following taken from Mondays
Statesman deals with a question that
has been a~gitating the minds Of the
sportsmen of this section for some
time past. When does the open season
on ducks begin?
The Statesman story follows:
All, the poor ducks' August 81
marks their last day Of tranquil Sc
curity and they may we'll wiggle their
webbed toes in abject terror. The
hunters have already begun to train
their unloaded guns on the attic cob
webs and some have even gone so far
as to turn loose on hapless tin cans
In deadly earnest (outside the city
limits, OF course.)
The ducks are said to infest local
waters with a considerable degree of
thickness and each nimrod has his
particular flock picked with each of
its members already marked for the
roasting pan
n ttN ndNc bttH d iittit III uOuDI
as to the exact time the season opens
but for this year at least the hunters
may go as far as they like on Sep
TENDER 1.
All doubts as to the opening date
were put to rest Saturday by e. F..
Walton. president of the Idaho state
Sportsmen's association. "A good
many sportsmen are in doubt as to
the exact date of the opening Of the
duck season this year but l have re-
ceived positive information to the eff
feet that the 1914 season will open
on September l." said Mr.. Walton.
This proposed amendment to the
federal migratory bird law, which,
upon it's approval by congress and
the president will limit the duck sea-
son to the time between October 1
and January 16, cannot possibly go
into effect until 1915 and Idaho's sea-
son viii open on September l, Just as
Il has in previous years"

Hsvs Been Forced to Surrender Thew
Nationality, While In Austria and
Germany They Were De-
Gently Treated.

Russia does not present an unbroke1
front TO Austrian or German arms.
There can be little doubt that the
most restless element In that vast en-
pire is made up Of the ten million or
more Poles who have been forced to
surrender their liberties, their lam
guage and their nationality TO the
government in st. Petersburg.
On the other hand, 1000, 600 Poles
within the boundaries Of Austrfa-Hun-
gary are expected to give whole
souled support to Emperor Francis
Joseph, out OF gratitude for the en-
lightened policy pursued by his gov
eminent with respect to that people.
The spectacle of the Poles of Russia
rising against the ST. Petersburg gov
eminent and joining In sympathy with
the Austrians will be a natural result
of the treatment the ten million have
received as subjects of the car.
Russians and Poles, although both
of the Slavic race, have nothing in
common politically. Antagonism be-
tween them has been handed down
through the centuries, and It did not
die out but famed higher after the
smaller nation had been dismembered
and absorbed in part by Russia.
Russia denies her Polish subjects
everything that savors of preferment
In military and political life, although
they come OF a fierce race, ambitious
to rule. She attempts to force the
Russian language on the Poles. In
this she has succeeded In large meas
ure, although the Poles cling tena.
ciously to their ancient tongue and
their traditions.
The Poles Of Russia are ardent revo-
lutionists, II is said. The onserva
tiver belong TO the National league,
which Is described as an organiza-
ton to conserve patriotism, and the
radicals are to be found In the ranks
of the Socialist party.
~Germany's policy toward the Poles
within her gates has not been pur-
sued with the ruthless severity Of
Russia. The Prussian effort to "dena-
tionalize" the Pole In the Fatherland
Is not calculated to make the Poles
love their rules, but little blood has
been shed in the last sixty years.
There appears to be no disposition on
the part OF the Poles In Germany to
rise against the government.
The Poles living In Austria-the
third nation that aided In the dismem-
berment-have been permitted to rule
themselves, to all intents and pur-
poses. In Galicia the Poles have OBJ
tanned political ascendancy over the
Ruthenians, who r of Russian kim

A Man Who Does Things
SOUTHEASTERN CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.

Hon. j. M. Stevens, for ten years Judge of the Fifth
Judicial District, is making a good run for nomination for
governor. He is of a positive temperament, possesses
splendid executive ability and is a marvel of energy. Like
all men of his temperament he has relentless enemies and
the s~taunchest of friends. Those who do not like him are
apt to be very pronounced and bitter in their dislike. Those
who are his friends are the firmest kind of friends, and be-
lieve there is no one more deserving of the esteem and con-
fidence of mankind. He is making his campaign an econ
omy, court reform, land such is needed), better utiliza-
ton of the states resources, and if elected, promises to
clean the state house of all the ba rnacles that have attach
ed themselves to it. He will get both first and second
choice votes in large numbers and has to be reckoned with
in the counting. His home is at Blackfoot.-Adv.

The last legislature appropriated $4,000 for the main
tenance of the state house. This means light, heat and
~janitor service. On June 80, there remained but 81 cents
of this unexpended. A little less of this kind of business
administration" would be pleasing. The state owns its
own lighting and heating plant and gets its service for the
price of coal and the wages of a few employees. Many a
man would be glad to contract to furnish this service for
much less money.

ABOUT what the present reng1ouS
controversy will do either to the
Catholic Church or to the Socialist
Party. Whatever is, good in either of
them will stand up under any fire,
and whatever is evil in either will go
down, as it should go down.
All of us are interested in saving
all the good there is in any institu-
ton; and all of the good in all of them
will be saved: If the Socialist Party
breaks up something better and
stronger will take its place to make
the fight for all the good there is in
Socialism, and there is lots of good
in it.

other leaders of the anti-Catholic
movement, in that l do not think the
attack is hurting the Catholic Church

charges may hurt your brothers and

If you are trying to win any of
your brothers away from that church

them mad" You can't do it by call

charges against the church that re-

blooded Catholic men.
If you can convince honest Catho-
lies that their church, is conspiring
against this government; if you can
convince them that there is really a
serious purpose on the part of the
church authorities to Catholicize
America, in the sense of bringing
about a union of church and state, or
of giving the Catholic hierarchy con-

telligently defend any creed if l
wanted to. because l don't know
enough about any of them There
fore l have no disposition or inten-
ton of either attacking or defending

My chief criticism of all churches
is that they are not doing what 1
think all of them ought to do to bring
about social and Industrial justice;
and that's what we would have if this
were in fact as well as in theory a
Christian country.

have paid as much attention to the
bread-and-butter struggle of the
workers, or their fight for a square
deal in the human family, as should
have been paid if Christianity is to
be applied. But l think none of the
other churches has done any more
than the one some of them are now
attacking.
If there has been a falling off in

cause. don't think men are less re-

MURDERERS BURKE AND HARE
saaen of Notorious Memory Should Still

Londoners.

The skeleton of the last of the body
s%natchers treasured in Kings College
hospital recalls that there must be
Londoners still living who remember
Hare, who, with his accomplish.
Burke, first substituted murder for
resurrecting corpses in order to sup
ply subjects for the dissecting rooms.
Burke (whose method of smothering
the victims gave his name as a new
verb to the language was hanged on
the testimony Of his accomplish, for
Hare turned queens evidence and was
released.
Forty years or SO ago Hare was q
well-known figure in London streets,

sisfent blind beggars on the streets
about 1870. Few people recognized
the cold-blooded murderer in the
mlddle-aged, stout q clad in a
white smock and led about by a dog.
His blindness he owed to the fact that
on leaving prison Hare found work
in some lime kilns. The laborers dis
covered his history and threw him into
a pit of lime. 1t was a terrible ven
geance, for it destroyed his eyesight.
And as it is not fifty years since he
was a striking figure in London streets

Eoos When Not Used as Food.

For burns and scalds nothing Is
more soothing than the white of an
egg, which may be poured over the
wound. 1t is softer as a varnish than
collodion, and, being always at hand,
can be easily applied. 1t is also more
cooling than the sweet oil and cotton
which were formerly supposed to be
the surest application to allay the
smarting pain. The egg is considered
to be one of the best remedies for
dysentery. Beaten up slightly, with
or without sugar, and swallowed at a
gulp, it tends, by its emollient quail
ties, to lessen the Inflammation Of the
stomach and intestines, and by form
ing a transient coating or these or
gans, to enable nature to her
healthful sway over a diseased body.

would be all that is required in ordi.

lighter the diet otherwise and the
quieter the patient is kept the more

made that milk kept in red bottles
will remain sweet and pure longer
than when kept in plain glass or 9TH

been made with the spectrum to de-
termine which of the rays Of light at

it is the rays toward the violet and
of the spectrum that do the mischief.
The red ray is stronger and more
n~eutralizing and probably has some
~neutralizing effect upon the tactical

theory that the red bottle preserves

FOR THE BIG CITY VISITOR
Advice Given Those Who Only lnfre-

Home Town.

Metropolitan blemishes and draw.
backs are not often emphasized by he
class of business men who are per-
haps the most interested in bringing

However, q New York boniface has
had the frank and friendly inspiration
to prepare a card of "don'ts" for pre-
;sentation to each of his guests.
An early suggestion has to do with
watches and money. Don't wear your
timepiece loose on a fob, and don't
believe that a hip pocket is as secure
as a bank. Why carry a roll. anyway,
when the hotel office has a safe?
Next, the affable stranger. Don't
let him persuade you that he Is an
old friend.
Next. life and limb. Don't believe
that you are as swift as an automo-
bile. And don't tote a gun-"it is bet
ter to run"
Next, traps. Don't go too conf
IDENTITY into unknown places; the way
out is not always so straight and
simple as the way in.
Yet, on the other hand, don't go to
the harassing extreme Of cautiousness
and suspicion. The city is not bad
Just because it is big, nor is every one

Municipal engineers In England
have recently complained against the
wasteful practice of tearing up pave
ments just after they are laid In or
der to repair or extend water or a
mains and electric conduits. The
same prictice obtains generally In the
United States, but a number of cities
have adopted stringent rules when
are working satisfactorily.
In New York city, previous to the
laying OF a new pavement, the city de-
partments and utility companies which
have subsurface structures are notl-
fed and ordered to make such repairs,
renewals and extensions as will care
adequately for their service for sew
eral years to come. Thereafter per-
mits for street opening are not grant
