In this day it is silly pirate of peace and wicked to
depend peace treaties The country should be amply
prepared take of itself in any emergency The
army and navy should be strengthened in order that the
nation may be respected. The American Legion is the
nucleus of citizenry army which would respond to
call for volunteers. 1t is the first step accustomng the
citzenry OF the country to training which
such pacihcist President Wilson approves and upon
which he would depend in of war. The movement
has attracted wide attention. great deal of commenda

MONK SETTLES WITH THE COUNTY

Will Monk, ex-treasurer of Canyon county has come
to settlement of the board of county commissioners
Checks for $0l4 covering and money unaccounted
for given the county treasurer Wednesday. This
settles question that has long agtated the public mind
to less extent. We trust that the $0l4 also
pays the interest the money which Mr.. Monk has
held since he went out of Office.
The action of Mr. Monk throughout has been little
unusual say pectuar He left his Office in haste and
confusion and after doing number of things that caused
inconvenience. HI went out of the state without max
ing settlement and returned at his sweet will He
by his settlement shows that for three months he
had possession of upwards of thousand dollars belong
ing to the people of Canyon county.

accounting system is badly in need of overhaung

that there is no railroad construction going on because
investors have lost confidence in railroad stocks and
bonds
We presume that it will be admitted that adequate
transportation facilities desirable and that development
;eded Such being the case the fact that the people
have brought about the present condition is serious in
dctment of their common and sound judgment.
They have permitted agaors and demogogues to corrupt
their minds to such an that it is unsafe to invest
capital in great railroad enterprises.
Beginning with Roosevets second term and extending
down to the present time there has been continuous ag
tation against the railroads Some of it deserved
but more was the result of peversion mind the part
of some and of profitable demogogy the part of Others
So long as politicians and professional riendsothe-
people find their advantage to criticize desrupt and
destroy there will be agitation.
The cure for our present disease of mind and body is
to take cheerful optimistic view of things in general
and of railroads in particular. The restoration of
hdence in big and little will help great DEAL

We understand that Sheriff Froman has taken offense
at The Tribune because it referred his boast that he
had captured desperadoes than any other man in
Idaho and to the fact that number of bad eggs had
escaped Mr. Froman should know that if he captured
these despeadoes due his courage vigilance and
energy if they escaped it due misfortune No one
mas charged him with deliberately letting them get away
