CONGRESS- ADJOURNS.

The longest and probably the most
notable session OF congress ever held
adjourned on Saturday evening last
after being in session practically 5b'
DAYS. The first session of the b3rd
congress began April eth. 1913. and
closed its labors on Saturday. Octo-
Der 24th, 1914. 1t is the first SEES
sion OF congress in which the demo-
Gratis have had complete control for
long number of years. and they
will now be held responsible for some
very important legislation that mas
been enacted during this session.
while much criticism has been thrust
at the party in power relative 10 GER
tain bills enacted into law. II is yet
too early to draw any conclusions as
IN the effect of these laws on the
country In general, but as President
Wilson has yet two years TO serve
the results will be more manifest pS
that time. In the meantime, now
ever. Il is to be hoped that he may
continue to have congress In sym
pathy with his reform measures tha'
the responsibility may rest solely on
the shoulders OF the party. To TINS
end II is important that the congress
sional delegation to be elected IN lda'
no this year should be representa-
ltiyes that will stand shoulder ''
shoulder with the president.
At the adjournment OF congress
President Wilson reiterated MS ue
termination that government appro
nr,ations next year shall be less thai
those OF this year. and that stric
economy be observed In all depart
ments He told callers that ever
effort would be made to keep the IA
penditures down.

no REPRESENTATION

In scanning the republican legis-
lative ticket it will be found that the
North Side tract, and in fact the
whole southern hall of the county.
has been ignored IL the dist ibutiC
o.: legislative candidates, al In fact
the saline might be said of mosr Jf
hr ticket, as it would appear that
no Jeromeite should be accorded any
important Office on the ticket. But
the legislative ticket is the most i'm
portant at the present time, and this
portion OF the county should insist
on having representative in the leg
islature. and thereby serve notice on
some OF the ticket manipulators hat
We are on the map and part OF Lin
coin county.
This representation can only be
obtained by the election of Mr.. Geo.
\. Bremen. of this place. who is the
democratic candidate for state sem
ator. and it would seem to be the
duty OF every voter on the North Side
ract TO see to ii that Mr. Bremen :
name is on his or her ticket We
would not advise this did we not be-
lieve that Mr.. Bremen possesses all
the qualifications necessary for this
important Office. and at the same
time is broad enough minded TO
watch carefully the interests of other
sections of the county.
That there is some object in de-
priving this section of Legislative
candidate is plain TO be seen, but
what that object is will probably not
be known until it is brought out IN
the legislative session. 1t was gen
orally conceded at first that Jerome
should be given a candidate on the
| legislative ticket, and one of our cit
liens was decided upon as the candi
date for senator. but at the last mo
ment and just in time TO file his nom
ination papers. Shoshone man wa.
brought forward 1t is safe to sa!
that tnis action on the part of til,
rest of the county will be resented b.
the republicans of this section, ant
with the loyal support given TO Mr.
Bremer that he deserves. from III
voters in this section regardless o
party. he will be elected by saf
majority.

FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS
TO OPEN NOVEMBER 10th

Washington-Th II federal re-
serve banks OF the new banking sys-
TEN will be opened for business on
November 16th. This was announc-
ed Sunday officially.
Secretary McAdoo. authorized by
the currency act to name the open
ing date, made the announcement.
His choice OF the 10th was made de-
spite the fact that the directors and
governors of the - banks. in re-
cent conference here. voted 3 TO 80
against opening on that date and
expressing their preference for Nov
ember 80.
In making the announcement. Mr..
McAdoo declared he had reported his
decision after discussion with the
federal reserve board and because OF
emergency conditions in the south,
in the belief that the opening OF the
banks will be helpful there and Will
benefit business in all sections of the
country
In a statement issued Sunday night
the secretary made it clear that un-
der the new system the federal gov
ernment will be able by deposits
from the general fund OF the treas
urv I'm reserve banks to aid produc-
ers of staples. The new reserve re-
ouirements operative after the banks
are opened. he pointed out. will re-
lease more than 00.0O0.OOO OF
money now held by national banks
as reserves and will add greatly to
the lending power of the bank.
The following. In part. is the state
ment issued by Secretary McAdoo;
"As soon as the reserve banks are
I'm oneration shall transfer to them
as large an amount of government
funds as possible: this will, in turn
enable them to extend enlarged cred
i,s to national banks and state banks
which may become members OF the
federal reserve system which they
in turn. may extend TO their custom
ers.
by this means and through tn
agency of the federal reserve banks
hone TO give additional assistance Il
that already given by the treasur'
denartment to the cotton producers
the cotton industry and the busines
men of the south.
"The new reserve requirement
which will become operative on III
18th day of November upon the OF
anine of the federal reserve banks
will release more than S4Oo'ooo'oo
of reserve money and largely II
oosa the credit facilities of tn
hanks of the country.

NORTHWEST Is BRIGHTEST
SPOT IN ALL THE WORLD

That the northwest is the one
bright spot in the United States
the region least affected by the ad-
verse influences of Europe's war
is business and industrial facr and
authoritative observers are taking
note of it,
Railroads in the northwest are do
ing we'll" says the Wall Street Jour
nal. but in the south the gross earn
ings show an alarming decrease.
This means that cotton has not it's
usual purchasing power. 1t is
problem not TO be solved by congress
sional action. Improved banking ia
cilities rather than doles out of the
banking system should 60 far to
solve the problem. which is not one
for inflated currency. but for improv-
ed credit
| Official reports to the interstate
commerce commission show that the
Itranscontinental railroads which
have their western terminals in the
Pacific northwest are doing well in
the face of Europes war and world
wide industrial depression. Some of
them are doing extraordinarily we'll.
notably the Southern Pacific system,
of which the o. w. r. & n. is a part.
When the fact is considered that,
taking the country over, manufac-
turing industries are running at only
20 per cent of their normal business
and that the steel industry and cop
per production are below SO per cent
of their capacity. this increase in
railroad earning is sensational.

of $4,000. 1t is in keeping with
the other substantial modern bust

The differences between the bond
holders and the settlers have all

fest a spirit of cooperation and good
cheer throughout the tract which can
not but make for rapid progress and
development. Five years time is al

The attention of pessimists who
seem to think that irrigated lands are
not being longer sought after, are
referred to sale of the Ruthford
farm on the South Side which was
sold last week to eastern parties for
$3.50 per acre. This farm was highly
improved and this goes to emphasize
the fact that if you ever expect to
sell your land at good advantage
you must get 1t under cultivation.
