THE VOLUNTEER BILL
Law Under Which Militia May Go
TO War.

Washington, D. C.-Under the
new volunteer army bill passed by
congress the first step, in calling
for volunteers, will be to bring in
to the federal service the national
guard Of the several states. Con-
gress has never passed the militia
pay bill, and therefore it will be
necessary for members Of the ma
tional guard, both officers and
men, to enlist individually in the
volunteer service, as they did at
the outbreak Of the Spanish war,
but il is proposed as far as posi-
bic to maintain the organization OF
the militia companies and regi.
ments. Companys, rs per cent Of
whose minimum membership will
volunteer, will be taken into the
service as they are. In the event
some members of the national
guard do not care to volunteer in
the federal service, their places
will be filled by Spanish war
veterans. After the national guard
has entered the federal service,
the department, If more volunteers
should be needed, will look to the
governors Of the states to aid in
recruiting companies, made up Of
men not now in the national guard.
and who are unable or do not care
to join the national guard volun-
teer organizations.

State Press Comment.
CriticisinR Claestone.

Paul Clagstone. who has been in
state Of .sinnocuous desuetude"
for nearly two years, bobbed up
serenely last week and announced
that he would be the Progressive
candidate for United States senator
this year. In his speech at Occur
d'Alene in which he announced his
candidacy, he took special pains
to criticize Senator Borah. AS
Borah is not an issue in the cam-
paign this year we can't under
stand why these pop gun politi-
clans should jump onto him. Borah
is certainly not botbering them
any. His time is occupied with
more important matters. Il will
be time enough to discuss Borah
and his policies in the campaign
Of 1913 in which year he will
doubtless be candidate for re-
election. But then, what's the
use Of paying any attention TO
Paurs utterances, anyway The
people Of Idaho will never be SO
/ foolish as to send him to the
United States senate. In fact,
Paul is about the only person in
Idaho who considers, his candi !
dacy for the senatorslip At all
seriously. Montpelier Examiner.

"Southern Idaho will not have the
bumper fruit crop that was promised
the growers month ago." according
to Mr.. Macey, state horticultural in

recent freezes. Notwithstanding np
this, however, we may count on a
good crop and one that. 10 some

ANDERSON WILL IMPROVE
THE LAW OFFICES

y Mr.. r. l.. Anderson viii shortly
remodel the offices in the second
floor of the Law Library Building
All of the offices are without any
windows. except front and back ones
and for this reason, they have not
been very desirable. Mr.. Anderson
viii remedy this, giving ample ventil-
alton and light, by making court
or air shaft from the rear of the
first office to the front of the rear
one, dropping the wall back for three
feet or SO and putting in windows
all along the tier of offices. When
this is done there will be fewer more
desirable offices in the city and they
will not lack for tenants The i'm
provements will be made before the
frs Of the year.
