GOV. HARRIS To SIGN
BILLS WITH TWO PENS
DEMAND FOR THE POINTS USED IN
SIGNING PROHI BILLS Is BRISK.
-EICHELRERGER GETS ONE:
ST0YALI. THE OTHER.

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 17.-Governo7
Nat E. Harris, though he is not ambi-
dextrous, will use two pens to sign
the prohibition bills, and his sigma
ture will probably be the first ever
affixed in that way to state docu-
ment
This peculiar arrangement is due t.
the fact that both Dr. g. W. Eichel-
berger and Senator Stovall put in in
aliena5le claims for the pen which
would sign the prohibition measures.
Each said it was his by right and
promise, and each put up such a good
argument that the governor decided
lie would have to cut the Gordian knot
and use two pens. Senator Stovall
will get the one with which he signs
IN. E. and Dr. Eichelberger will
set the one which he adds Harris
with.

sELWYN As THE ARAB"
THURSDAY At ALCAzAR
BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY OF THE
FAR EAST.

Americas movie patrons, among
whom Edgar Selwyn is a prime favor
lite, will welcome his appearance again
at the Alcazar Theatre tomorrow
Thursday in perturbation of his
own romantic drama The Arab,
which has been greeted by crowded
houses wherever presented The
drama is based upon the love story OF
the beautiful young daughter of an
American missionary and a dashing
young Shiek of the Syrian desert. it
tells how his love for the American
girl prevents massacre of Christians
at the hands of the Turks. All the
poetry of the Arab and his steed: all
the temperament of the Orient: all the
thrills of danger; all the mystery of
religious fanaticism can be found in
this photo drama.

PRETTY SUFFS IN PARADE

MISS RA0UL ON PRANCING SIZED
LED PARADE PAGEANT AT At
LANTA YESTERDAY.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. IA partic-
ularly stupid and cantankerous look
ing donkey represented the State of
Georgia in the suffragette parade here
yesterday. He was led along unwill-
ingly at the rear of the pageant, as a
sort of Parthian shot Cor swat as it
were, expressing the opinion of the
gentle ladies with regard to a state
that had refused to allow them 20
vote.
Equal rights were proclaimed by the
garb of Miss Eleanor Raoul who rode
astride at the head of the procession
in riding breeches and coat, upon a
prancing steed.
With the delicate humor for which
the female sex is famous, there was a
large and beautifully decorated auto
mobile bearing the legend Eastern
Victory" referring, of course, to the
fact that suffrage was overwhelming
~ defeated in the eastern states last
week, when it was voted on at the
general elections.
Cheers, applause, enthusiasm and
laughter greeted the valiant suffrage
leaders, several hundred of whom took
part in the parade.

600 TREATS DISTRIBUTED TO
YOUNG AMERICANS-APP
PIRATE MUSICAL PROGRAM
CARRIES OUT SPIRIT OF
THE OCCASION.

Grangeville's first municipal Christ
mas tree was a success and while the
tree was not erected as isa usually the
custom in some public square or street
where great bonfires and open air pro-
grams make the spirit of the occasion,
the first attempt of the city is to be
commended.
A grove of small trees had been ar
ranged on the stage of the local opera
house in a semi-circle providing back
ground for the choir which rendered ap-
propriate songs. The trees were beau
tifully decorated and the treat, sack
of candy and orange, was delivered
from the stage by Santa Claus who was
impersonated by "Gib' Eimers. A
large crowd was present and it is hard
ly necessary to state that young Ameri-
ca was there in full force. Something
like six hundred sacks of candy and
presents were delivered. During the
day clothing and other necessaries of
life were taken to the homes of the
needy and the committee in charge
made a most thorough canvass in its
attempt to see that none were over
looked.
The spirit that prompted the move
ment is most commendable and no
doubt another year will see even more
interest in the carrying out of the idea
of community Christmas tree which
has been most popular in the East and
the larger centers for some time past
and seems to be destined to be taken
up in the smaller communities with as
much or more zeal.
To the committee in charge full ere
dit is given by the community and es
pecially to those who had charge of the
program as well as the singers who con-
tributed greatly to the happiness of the
occasion is commendation due.

CHRISTMAS Tree PROVES SUCCESS

really be economy. The amount of
property escaping taxation is much
greater than supposed. The formation
of permanent and non-partisan organ
ization was a wise and salutary move.
1t would awaken the public interest,
keep the people informed of conditions
and assist the governor and the legis-
lature.
Governor Alexander read short paper
on taxation as a general proposition.
He spoke of the incursion into every
state of federal authority which taxes
and expends, leaving little for the state
to tax but real and personal property.
The tendency was toward paternalism
and socialism. He favored the forma-
tion of the association Economy
should be coupled with sane expendi-
ture. The burden is unequally borne
at present. 1t was largely case of
representation without taxation. Stock
and bond wealth was hard to reach,
corporations paid on their net earn
ings; the farmer had to pay whether he
earned anything or not. The truth
should be ascertained and the burden
equalized. Abuses were too common.
One county had collected $4,000 more
than the state had required or could ac
eept from 1T, and the money would have
to lie in the county treasury until it
could be returned to the taxpayers. A
rich state like Idaho should not suffer
from the tax burden.
President Brannon of the university
was the closing speaker He spoke
without notes and gave a mastery
short address. The tax load should be
distributed, he said. We should know
what our revenues and expenditures
are, which we do not know now. Com
mission government was becoming more
popular and more effective, as witness
the educational commission. The tax
commission should never have been
abolished. He extended the thanks Of
the university to those present for the
attendance and interest and promised
them its best efforts.
The next meeting will be at the call
of the executive board.

Our old friend, Pete johnson, after

kane and judging from the following
item clipped from a Spokane paper,
Pete has as usual, put in a cool word for
this section of the country. The inter

Peter johnson of Buffalo Hump,

spend Christmas week in civilization,
luxury he has not allowed himself
for 10 years. AT the Arlington hotel he

but he was looking for placer and would
not tie himself up with any of the sill
yer or lead or copper mines which were
then priced by prospectors.
"When / heard over in Butte of the
big strike in the Occur d'Alenes,' he
said, 81 thought it was gold, and 1

and is looking forward with hope to the
construction of the much-talked-of
north and south railroad through Idaho,
as the signal for its development.
''It is the last wild country left that
I know off, he said. "There are hun
dreds of thousands of acres of land
that would keep herds Of sheep and
cattle, if they could be got out to mar
ket, but they have to be driven across
the mountains to Grangeville now, and
it doesn't pay. There is a good deal
of timber, and the mines would pay
well if the ore could be got out. There
will be good farms, timber and mine
products to make a railroad pay"

VISITS THE KINGS COUNTRY.
Commissioner Pettibone Back From
Canada-Tells of Conditions.

County Commissioner N. B. Pettibone
was in town this week looking after
some business matters. He recently re-
turned from trip to Canada, going up
to the Alberta country to look after
some land he is interested in across the
line. While in the. Dominion he called
on o. G. -Iapp, the former Elk City
merchant, who is now located on a
stock and dairy ranch near Dedsbury,
small town out from Calgary. He
found the Lapps getting along fine and
making money. o. c. is now a practi-
cal farmer, gets up with the birds and
retires late. While working very hard
he enjoys life and is as healthy as can
be. He stated the former Elk City man
wished to be remembered to his many
friends in Idaho county and to whom
the latch string was always out.
While across the line Mr.. Pettibone
had an opportunity to observe some of
the results of the great European war,
Canadian soldiers who were wounded
just beginning to pour into the Domi4-
ion. His observation led him to be-
lieve the Canadian people, while they
realize the full gravity of the war and
the great waste of life that will result
from a continuation of the same, are as
loyal to the mother country as any En-
glishmen and want to see it carried on
to their idea of successful close, re-
gardless of the costs. A great many
men have already been\ furnished by
Canada but recruiting continues to go
on at a lively rate AMI is proving quite
popular although larga majority of
the able bodied men have already gone
to the front in number of towns
Business is very quiet and money mat
ters close, it being next to impossible
to negotiate a loan ut the banks re-
