TO SIMPLIFY ELECTION LAWS
Legislature May Abolish the Nominal
ing Petitions and Make Several
Other Radical Changes.

Topeka radical change in the
Kansas primary election system is in
dictated by the present legislature. The
senate committee on elections has
made a favorable report on the Trout
man bills, abolishing the party cOun-
Gil and the primary nominating petit
tons One bill provides that each
political party hold a delegate cOnven-
ton every two years in May to draft
a party platform.
The party committees are to organ
ize and control this convention. 1t
has nothing to do with nominating the
candidates. The delegates make up
the platform, as is now done by the
party council. The party council is
composed of the candidates for each
state and district office and meets aft
er the primary and drafts the plat
form.
The new scheme allows each party
to select delegates in each county who
will draft the platform once before the
primary. The candidates may then in
dorse the platform if they desire The
other bill abOIishes the nominating pc
titions and permits anyone who wants
to run for a job to file his declaration
and deposit per cent of the salary
of the job he wants. The money is to
be used to pay the states expense in
handling the primary.

It is not difficult to dress the young
lad correctly, for in his case, as in
that of men, few good styles are
given the stamp of approval early in
the season and dutifully followed I'M
til it's close. Men are less independent
in dress than women, and the boy also
wants to be dressed like his mates.
His desires having been fulfilled in
this regard he is unconscious of his
clothes once they are acquired.
A sensible outfit for the schoolboy
from eight to sixteen Is shown in the
picture above. 1t consists of knicker-
bockers in gray or brown mixture and
a Norfolk coat These are worn with
a soft percale blouse with soft turn
over collar and cuffs and an incon-
spicuous four-in-hand tie.
The short topcoat is made Of heavy
wooden material showing an indis-
tinct plaid. 1t is double-breasted and
finished with large flap pockets, very
substantial and firmly sewed down. A
wooden cap, strong ribbed stockings
and calfskin laced shoes carry out the
appropriate details of the outfit. For
school, wooden gloves or those of dog
skin are in keeping with the coat and
cap.

THE ONE BEST BET

Picking Idaho in the Palouse reg
county is what we should call any
mans one best bet. There may be
many attractive and profitable VEN
lures elsewhere, and there may be
some drawbacks to living here, but
it is reasonably certain that no place
offers more advantages or is handi-
capped by fewer disadvantages.
Take the experience of all the men
who, haiIing originally from the east
Or middle west, have decided to go
black home" to settle down. They
simply can't do it. They don't do it.
They come back to Idaho just as soon
as they can get together the number
of dollars it takes to buy railroad
ticket.
One taste of Idaho life and the APP
petite for it is Unsuitable. Nothing but
coming to Idaho to settle will content
again.
Some of the things that these trans
planted fasteners and middle west
erners have found out are these: they
can not make better interest on their
savings any where else; they can not
save more or live better anywhere
else; they can not earn higher wagers,
get better crops, or carry on their
affairs more independently and more
pleasantly anywhere else.
Tdahoans have a good reason to be
well satisfied with the world, and most
of them are smart enough to know it.

1t is not considered such very baC
practical pedagogy by the non-pro-
fessional teacher to engage a learn
er's interest and stimulate his efforts
to learn by directing his attention to
his own interests in the subject in
hand.
There is some question whether
any appreciate good to the common
wealth in general has come from the
teaching of civics in the schools. The
subject may be looked upon by edu-
Gators as one intended only to give
culture land not to be of any practical
value. though if that be the case, the
plan embodies the same inconsistency
that a number of others do: namely,
that the basis OF the cultural study is
something that originated in a hum
an need, was developed by the prac-
thing out of which its most enthus-
iastic devotees make their living.
Civics should be a very practical
subject, and the practice of concen
trating upon the study of the mach
inery of government should give way
to the study of the elements of COM
munity welfare for which we have
governments.
When the voter fully appreciates the
extent of his own interests and the
interests OF his fellow men and his
community in matters of government,
he may be expected to begin to take an
active and more or less intelligent
part in public affairs.

SMITH PLANS TO
RAISE CHARTER
EXPENSE FUNDS
Offer Made to Do Convention
Printing Without Charge, and
Delegates Hopes Revive

TWO charters were presented to the
charter convention last night, that OF
the Research Club by \. D. Castro,
and that OF ". G. Achi. who intro
duced his own measure This is the
first business connected with charters
which the charter convention has
done The crafts were accepted and
turned over to the committee Of l..
OF which I.orrin Andrews is chairman
and the committee will probably have
some sort Of a report TO make OIL
them by next Friday night.
Outside Of the few minutes devoted
to this fOrmalitv the time OF the con
ventiun was taken up with the finan
cial problems which have been con-
fronting them since neither the city
nor territory will furnish expense
funds.
John Wise represented the eXclama-
tory element at the convention wien
he jumped up and shouted: IF we
can't get this money which we need
and get it at once-let's adjourn i'm,
mediately!"
A milder tone was given to the meet
ing when w. o. Smith rose to protest
After an hour or so, during winch
the convention discussed the financial
problem, the matter was referred to
the committee, and the meeting was
adjourned.
This morning the raising of tho
$1,000 seems close at hand Daniel
Logan, chairman Of the finance com
mittee of the convention, received an
offer from the Hawaiian Gazette
Company to do all the printing Of the
free.
Furthermore, W. o. Smith, who is
also a member of the committee,
thinks that he can raise the money
from private individuals before to-
morrow afternoon, and he made this
statement even before he had heard
that the printing would be done with
out charge. Just where he expects te
find the money he did not say, but he
Is confident that he can bring home
results.

We had been in training for the
climb for quite while before We left
Honolulu. and I'll wager that each Of
us trained up on his stock OF adjec-
tiyes fully as much as he trained his
leg muscles getting ready for the
climb But when we got 70 the top

We left Volcano House late in the
morning and covered 90 miles on
horseback by night, reaching a water
tank where we camped at an elevation
Of 1900 feet
AT 8 the next morning we started
out in the rain for the summit, dis
lance OF twelve miles. There were
no steep dropping cliffs that take
away your brcath-no sudden views
in word. the trail around
Tantalus will give you more thrills to
the inch than Mauna Loa gives to the
yard. And when we reached the top
we found just a dead level plateau,
about four miles wide There was
very little to show that the mountain
was a volcano-just few columns Of
steam rising from the crevices. The
temperature was 46 Fahrenheit and
the crevices were hacked with ice. We
broke the crust and filed our canteens
with water cold enough to make May

I'VE made the trip clear back to
the Volcano House that day and
reached it at 10 in the night-19 hours

on the road again, not hopefully after
Mauna Loa, but doggedly, because we
had made up our minds to see both Of
the volcanoes. Fifty miles of steady

TANTALUS TRAIL HAS MORE REA

you're getting somewhere when you

tance-just a heaD of soft puppies
splotched against the horizon by mis-
take. The day was exceptionally clear
and it seemed to me as ! turned my
eyes from point to point that half the
world was in sight.
Near the top. at about the 10000
foot level we reached a beautiful ice
cold lake, some hundred yards long
and about the same in width. 1t was
strangely impressive to run on to that
cold clear water at such an elevation,

earth was young.

worth more than ehapped lips to climb
that mountain. It's about as near to

for tools of various kinds. We could
see a lot of rude hammers lying on
top of one mound where they had been
left generations ago, and we went over
