Down With the Demon Auto!
Emmett Examiner.l


Henry Ford, the automobile manu-
facturer, has launched a campaign
against cigarettes and has enlisted the
aid of his colleague, Thomas A. Edi-
son. Their aim is to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of cigarettes. If
this mania for prohibiting one thing
and another continues it may get be-
yond the control of even the Fords
and the Edisons.
Some chap, looking around for
something to reform, will perhaps dis
cover the frightful things for which
the automobile, for instance. is direct
ly to blame. Astounded by his dis
coveries he will set about to organize
an Anti-Automobile association
Thousands will flock to his standard.
Then they will elect man to the leg
iSlature and that man will introduce
bill to prohibit the manufacture. sale
and use of the automobile.
He will have staggering arguments
to back up his demand. He can pre-
sent petition signed by the pastors
and members of certain religious
body in Indiana; praying for the pas

Historic Relic.
Liberty Bell is kept in the old state
house in Philadelphia. This bell in
conjunction with human rang out the
joyful tidings Of the Declaration of
Independence in July 1916. The bell
was cast by Pass & Stow of Philadel-
phia. 1t was hung in the belfry of the
state house early in June in 1883. Its
weight is 2080 pounds and around it,
near the top, were cast the words,
prophetic of its destiny, Proclaim
Liberty throughout the Land, unto
all the Inhabitants thereof Lev XIV.

When the British forces approached
Philadelphia in 1777, the bell was
taken down and carried to Allentown,
to prevent its falling into the hands
of the enemy. In 1881 it was placed in
the brick tower of the statehouse. be-
low the original belfry, which being
of wood. had become decayed. For
more than so years the bell parti-
cipated in the celebrations of the an
niversary of the Declaration Of In
dependence, when it was cracked
while ringing. An effort was made to
restore its tone by saving the crack
wider but the effort was unsuccessful
The bell was removed from its place
in the tower to lower story, and only
used on occasions of extraordinary
sorrow. Subsequently it was placed
on the original timbers in the vesti-
bule of the statehouse, and in 1873 il
was suspended where all visitors
might see it. 1t was taken to the
Columbian exposition in 1898. 1t was
also at the St. Louis exposition and
will be exhibited at San Francisco ant
San Diego.
Accompanying the bell will be q

a yelled woman CARRIED in deep black.
AT the same time a child's casket was
removed from the baggage car.
AS the woman walked toward the
waiting hack to join the three men,
the crowd gazed at her in compassion
and there was a murmur of sympathy
as station employees started to carry
the little casket toward the hearse.

COULD WASHINGTON BE
CAPTURED AND BURNED2

The SNUG conceit of the American
people will one day be the cause of
their downfall. We, the people of this
country, have an idea that we can
lick all creation. We imagine that
there is something in the air that
makes us better and Drawer fighters
than the people of any other country
on earth In consequence we pay
little attention to preparation. Like
our president and secretary of state
we will depend upon "our citizenry
accustomed to arms" Notwithstanding
the fact that we have had no such
citizenry for fifty years.
A friend has left at The Tribune
Office a page taken from Everybody's
magazine in which occurs an article
entitled: Gould Washington be
Burned Now. and American Freeman
Run for Freedom as in 1912" Think
ing that the article in question may
take a little of the conceit out OF
some of our patriots who are inclined
to revel in the glories of the past we
re-Dublish the article in question. II

Ever hear of the battle of Bladens-
burg? No. Our school histories
don't tell us about it-much. 1t is
painful, but it is necessary, to print
the facts about the battle Of Bladens-
burg at this time.

Because railway equipment com
panies lack business for their factor
les, they are willing to take orders at
prices so low as to eliminate profit.
Taking advantage of the opportunity
to pet cars and locomotives at sacri-
fee prices, some of the eastern rail-
roads have placed few orders. And
it is this sort of business that Demo-
cratic newspapers point to as an evil
dence OF revived industry. The factory
keeping machinery from rusting is
works for his board to keep from
starving. In each instance there is
useful employment but it would be
hard to induce either to accept such
work as an evidence of prosperity.

The Capital News is having another
time explaining. 1t was either might
lily mistaken in its estimate of Alex
ander when he was mayor OF Boise,
or in its estimate of him now. 1t
can hardly be that Mr. Alexander was
so inefficient as mayor and so very
efficient as governor, unless he has
been entirely made over in the interim,
and we have never heard of his con-
version. He is just the same Demo
crat now that he was then. with the
experience that his ready and dis
eliminating mind has had advantage
of, added. The Capital News has an
awful time keeping within thousand
miles of consistency. But then, did
not Emerson say, "a foolish consis-
tency is the hob-goblin of little minds,
adored by little statesmen, philos-
ophers and divines" ?-Payette In

Official Paper for the City of Mobridg'

A short while ago we received a
letter from the anti saloon League
requesting us to publish some Of
their anti-saloon articles. The
League recognizes the excellence Of
"A newspaper to transmit their
printing arguments to the people
and are seeking the use Of their
columns. We have concluded to
comply with their request as the
articles have been carfully edited
by the superintendent and contains
no matter, that we can see, that
appeals to anything else except
the intelligence Of the people. We
are not running propaganda pa
per either for or against the liquor
question and are neutral, but we
have thinking people on our sub
scription list who have had in one
way or another, q lifelong acqualn'
tance with the open saloon and
who. perhaps, would like to read
the printed argument of those who
are opposed to the saloon. 1t Is
for those persons, and any one else
for that matter, that we have add
ed this department for and believe
we are doing right as that question
is becoming one Of the paramount
questions Of the day, and everybody
should become versed in the ques-
ton if for no other purpose than
to be we'll informed.
