A CANYON COUNTY MAN CALLED.

1t highly gratifes the people of Canyon
county that one of their fellow citizens has been
called upon to fill position Of the highest trust
and responsibility. We refer to the election of
Mr.. n. ii. Dewey as president of the Idaho Life
Insurance Go. Since the death of his father,
Col w H. Dewey, Ed H. has grown steadily in
the good opinion of the people of Idaho He
was called to a place at once commanding and
hard to MI. The administration of a vast estate
devolved upon him naturally and bv inheri-
lance He could not inherit the respect and
popularity of the elder Dewey. This had to be
won by himself through his own force of char
acterr and personality. The estate which he
administered has grown and prospered and with
1t his own reputation.
1t is not extraordinary that such men as
Mr. Dewey should be looked upon with favor
by the people as well suited to fill positions of
state Too rarely, however, do they permit
themselves to satisfy an honorable ambition
along this line. In the first instance business
affairs occupy their minds and in the second
too we'll do they know that they will be misun-
derstood, If not abused and vilifed It is bad
that IN this country we must dspence with the
services OF men best fitted to serve us in the
government II NOW and again man raises him
self to a height that he is willing to sacrifice
ms business interests and subject himself to
the Vlclssltudes of politics that he NAV accom-
phsh something for the general good When
such man shows disposition to tear himself
away from snug prosperity he should be en-
couraged, for that man really has the interests
OF OF the public at heart. In years gone by MIR.
Dewey has shown willingness to serve the PEG
pie lie has done it in his home town of Nampa
but IN the larger and broader fields events have
happened from time to time which made it i'm
Practcal, for HIM to assume grave responsible
tues We imagine that the railroad interests
WIN winch he was connected and which prop
cry ana necessarily associated him with the
Oregon Short line have deferred him upon more
than one occasion. These connections and as
soclatlons no longer exist, and while in our opin
ION, they were never of such nature as to be
an, nlndrance IN politics yet highly sensitive
nan nan might hesitate to go before the people of
the state as candidate for office. At the pres.
ent time there is nothing that should deter the
people from pressing into the service Mr., r.. Fl |
y Dewey Tor or! such position as they may deem him

The reduction in the cost of living has ar
rived. 1t showed itself first in New York Jan
uary 9, when beans were quoted wholesale 10
cents per hundred cheaper than they were Jan
uary 9, 1912, according to Dun's Review The
same authority quotes blue vitriol at 48 cents
per pound while year ago it was SIS cents
You can get hemp with which to hang yourself
at 3H cents per pound cheaper than you could
before the Underwood tariff bill was passed In
case you should want apples you would have to
pay at this time $500 per barrel instead of ST 90
as in 1912; eggs are ~ to 80 cents per dozen in
stead Of 36 to %; flour 1856 instead of $3.50
per Darrell hops As cents per pound instead of
%; molasses is the same but syrups were /
cent per gallon more; beef $3.50 instead of So 80
per 100 pounds; hogs $500 instead of 1920;
lard $1,000 instead Of $3.50; sheep 1870 instead
of $3.50; fish from $500 to $500 more per barrel;
vegetables from % cents to 81 90 more per bar
rel; and after eating in case you want chaw of
tobacco, the wholesale price is 2 cents per pound
more.
In addition to the above staple articles of
food, cotton goods are from "a cent to cents per
yard more than a year ago; hides average 2
cents per pound less and leather 3 cents per
pound more. The farmer gets it coming and
agoing there. Lumber is so cents per thousand
higher. Dried fruits of all kinds have increas-
ed in price But we forgot-opium, alcohol and
EPSON salts are lower, but then morphine, nux
vomca and sal ammoniac are higher

THE sCULLIoN IN THE KITCHEN.

There is in evidence healthy movement
toward looking to the health of the sculion in
the kitchen rather than to the welfare of the
Patagonlans. During the past few years we
have all been most intimately concerned in
creatures with whom we were unacuuainted and
absolutely helpless to assist, while at the same
time our nearest friends and closest neighbors
and sometimes our immediate families, were in
need OF help and assistance The "white slaveO

EXTREMES ARE THE VOTE GETTERs.

Ii you want to be real vote getter be per
fectly harmless or really dangerous. In Idaho
Congressman Burton L. French is said to be the
greatest little vote getter in the state He is
certainly harmless in every other respect This
calls to- mind that man of an entirely different
type, Napolean the First was also vote getter
In 1902 the First Consul, bv a senatuS consul
tum, had his tenure of office increased from 10
years to life 1t was an important step and so a
general election was called to confirm or reject
the decree. AT this election 3,570,259 votes
were cast and 3,568,58 were in favor of the
change. Less than two years later it was
deemed best to make Napoleon emperor of the
French. Again an appeal was made to the peo-
pie The vote stood 1921 ,675 for and 1919
against investing Napoleon with the imperial
title.
The point for politicians to keep in mind
is that they must either beat down all opposition
by whatever means, or offend no one Either
method has been successful in getting votes
Congressman French is fine young man. No
body has anything against him. not even the
Progresslves. A few years ago he was proud
OF the friendship that existed between him and
Speaker Cannon. Mr. Cannon fell on evil DAYS
IN popularity and Congressman French bobbed
up most serenely as the greatest foe of the
Speaker that Idaho had ever produced Con
gresham French was at one time a high pro-
tectlve tariff man. Protection was popular at
the time. Now we find him the greatest little
tariff refOnmer this far west Tariff reform is
popqlhrl Enemies say he changes with the
wind Friends say he simply represents the
people and kepps abreast of progress As
matter OF fact his antipathy to offending
keeps him amenabe to reason. We can't see
mat he has ever done anything for Idaho, but
ne is certainly harmless. He would not even
offend President Taft and everybody else took
a fling at him.
