If roosters strut beside the way.
What angry gods will on them frown,

Down the road. like a graceful flower,
Came a Westcott car twenty miles per
hour,
The rooster heard the motors hum,
And said 70 his wives, ITS going

But he also added, I'm very far
From being afraid of a Westcott car"
So he Tapped his wings and loudly
cried,
Bump! Crunch. The man in the car
looked back,
The rooster lay beside the track;
His feathers mingled with the dust;
His neck was broke, his boiler bust.
Epitaph.
Here lies the bones of rooster red.
He'll crow no more because he's dead.
His simple life had but one jar,
Meath the Whirling wheels of a West

SAVINGS
TO THE FARMERS
CONGRESSMAN SMITH OF IDA
HO, WILL INTRODUCE BILL
THIS WINTER FOR RURAL
CREDIT SYSTEM.

TWIN LS-Congressman ant
Mrs. Addison T. Smith left for Wash
ington, D. c., on Tuesday morning
the 23d, to remain until the adjourn
ment of congress next year.
During the summer and fall Mr.
Smith visited every section Of the
state, delivering addresses and meet
ing the people He has made spe-
cial study of the good roads problem,
the land laws and their application to
the arid regions, and also the needs
of the farmers for a rural credit sys-
TEN, similar to those In operation in
foreign countries, which will give the
actual farmer who lives on his own
land, an opportunity to borrow money
ON long time at low rate of inter
est No other legislation, he con-
tends, will so stimulate the develop
ment of the agricultural resources of
the country.
Congressman Smith proposes to in
troduce a bill for the establishment
Of a rural credit system which will
make available to the farmer the
funds deposited In postal savings
banks, which is now loaned to the
bankers of the country at the rate of
III per cent interest; also a bill pro !.
viding for federal aid In the con-
struction of roads; a bill excusing
residence on dry farms where water
for domestic purposes is not avail
able, but require cultivation for a
period of three years as an evidence
of good faith in reclaiming the land;
a bill. providing that homesteaders
and desert entrymen may pledge
their entrys as security to secure
money to construct irrigation works;
and bill for the relief of Carey Act
where water cannot be Sc
cured either because of shortage of
the water supply or the failure of the
irrigation project.
Mr.. Smith expresses himself as be-
ing in favor of a reasonable increase
of the army and navy, and will sup
port the program of preparedness
which the administration proposes ,on
he theory that if We are to maintain
Dir peaceful relations with other
countries, we as nation must be in
position to enforce our rights, es-
oecially since some of the nations
disregard their treaty relations when
t is to their advantage to do SO.

NOT ALL SOULLESS


The Santa Fe railroad recently did
thing that goes long way to show
that all corporations are not as soul
less as advertised. The frightful ex
plosion at Ardmore, Okla, few
weeks ago will be recalled by every
body. The accident happened on the
Santa Fe right-of-way. A lot Of
damage suits were naturally to be
expected. But there will be no suits.
The Santa Fe sent representatives to
Ardmore. The Santa Fe asked that a
committee of Ardmore business men
be appointed to look after the claims
for losses and fix the amount each
was to receive. The Santa Fel will
pay exactly the amount this commit
tee of business men fix. The dam
ages will amount to $4,000, as there
are some 1900 claims. There will be
no attorneys fees and no long drawn
out litigation and expensive court
costs. just as soon as the claims are
announced by the committee the
Santa Fe will mail a check to the
claimant

LAW OPENLY VIOLATED.

an antinepotism law there was grave
danger that a few hangers-on would
have to get out and hustle for them
selves. 1t was thought, even OUT pres
ent state officials, would hardly find
a way to violate the plain provisions
of the act. That is, that was the
opinion held by the public, but those
with inside information had no such
ideas. They knew that some way
would be found to care for all the
lame ducks by trading around clerk
ships and their opinions have been
fully Justified. One of the most fla
grant cases was in the state auditors
office where Bob Huston, brother of
the state auditor. was given a soft
berth. When the anti-nepotism law
went into effect he was transferred
to the state land department at $3.50

DEMOCRATS ARE IN
ADMINISTRATION
ARE THE LEADERS TO Be CON-
VICTED OF HAVING MADE A
SERIOUS LEGISLATIVE
BLUNDER?

Washington, D. c., Nov. 22.-The
Democratic administration is ap
preaching very awkward situation.
There are on the docket of the
United States Supreme Court the so
called five per cent rebate cases.
They involve a tremendous sum in
customs revenues, loosely estimated
at between fifteen and twenty mil
lion dollars, collected under the pro-
visions of the Underwood tariff law.
On the courts decision hangs the
fate of these millions.
If the Supreme Court upholds the
five per cent rebate provisions in
the Underwood law, then the sum
in dispute belongs to the foreign i'm
porters and must be paid back by
the government. The treasury deficit
long ago became alarming. If this
enormous additional sum has to be
paid out, it will still further empha-
size the failure of the Democratic
fiscal policy.
On the other hand, if the Supreme
Court decides that the five per cent
provision of the Underwood law is
invalid, the highest court in the
land will have convicted the Demo
cratic Congress of a humiliating
blunder and still further emphasize
its record of legislative inefficiency.
The fact that the attorney general,
in order to save the revenue IN
volved, is attacking the validity Of
the law Congress worked six months
to pass, makes the situation still
more complicated.
From a political standpoint, the
best thing that could happen to the
Democratic party in this case would
be to have a decision go over until
after election.
Whether or not this happens de-
Ponds largely upon the time the
case is heard. 1t is up to the govern
nent to take the first step to adj
vance the date of hearing. Litigants
IN the other side of the case have
complained bitterly over what they
ERIN unreasonable delay, and for
weeks have been urging the govern
nent to move more quickly.
Meanwhile, regardless of when the
tearing may be held, Democratic
eaders are wondering what can be
one to offset the attack that will I
70 made on their fiscal policy ON the
ne hand, and their legislative ef.
lciency on the other.

REMARKABLE STATEMENT.

"On the navy we spend annually
something less than We spend for
automobile tires.
"On the army We spend much less
than we do for chewing gum.
IF we will spend ON our army
what we spend on moving pictures,
our insurance will be complete.
The two states OF New York
and Massachusetts licensed more
chauffeurs than there are soldiers
and sailors in the army and navy of
the United States"
These trite truths were set forth
by Colonel James M. Thompson
president of the Navy league, in AN
address made recently before the
Women of the Navy league. in oon-
ference in Washington. Colonel
Thompson preferred this form Of
presentation to long and confusing
set of figures, but he succeeded in
impressing his audience that the
United States is spending tar too
little to insure national safety, and
that was his object.
