through many stages OF the journey
down a certain dark and mephitic val
lev not OF amelioration. Fairness was
gone. and In It's place stood angry re-
sentiment, ready TO rend and tear. Pity
and truth were going; the daily re-

these questions Of the moment We
must think of what the position and
the influence OF COMMUNICATIONS in
our public life will be after the war.
One Of my correspondents expresses
that hope that, as a result of concert
ed political action Of German voters,
the time will come when the German
elements in the United States will
have some 10 representatives in con-
gress, as the Irish-American element
now has some 10 representatives 1
am free 10 81. that l cannot think of
anything more disastrous for Ameri-
can political life than the possibility
OF having in congress numerous fac
tiOns held together by racial instincts
foreign TO the interests of the whole
people. If there is one thing in which
Americal political life may justly
claim superiority to that of most Eu-
rOpean countries il is the absence of
nationalist amin Osities and sectional
strife. Must we look forward to
time when congress, like the Austrian
reichsrath, will be splitstfp into groups
Of Germans. Irish. CZechs Italians,
Jews. British and other nOndescript
Americans? That would be the end
of a large national life. it would be
the end Of American freedom. Ger
mans, II seems 10 me, OF all others
have the duty of resisting such bane-
full, separatist movement. For the
greatest leader whom they have had
in this country. Carl Schurz, has been
foremost among Americans TO insist
again and again on the need OF sub
ordinating party considerations TO the
one question OF public service and OF
the fitness of the individual man for
mis- office.

The Duty Of German Americans

cans Of foreign birth to forget what
American citizenship demands Of
them.
That this danger is not confined TO
COMMUNICATIONS is obvious. Many
Of the sympathiZers with Great Brit
ain have gone so far in their blind
partisanship as TO become un-Ameri-
can. When a man like Prest Eliot
openly declares that the United States
could not allow Germany to vanquish
the allies, when the whole drift of his
utterances proves that he considers
loyalty TO German ideals and SYM
pathy with the German cause as in
compatible with loyalty TO America,
this fact alone is sufficient 20 show
that partisanship for the allies tempts
even recognized leaders OF American
-ublic opinion into views contrary to
American interests and American
ideals.
I believe that il is the duty OF Ger
man-Americans 10 combat such I'M
American views eagerly and fearless
". We must insist that any effort to
influence public opinion in such a way
as TO encourage our government to
depart from the line of stricteSt JUS
tice toward Germany. is against Amer
lean interest. And we must insist that
IL is against American ideals 10 expect
Americans of German descent 20 be
silent when the country TO which
they owe the best things that make
them good American citizens. Is ma
ligned and misrepresented as a brutal
militarist autOcracy.
But just as 1t is our duty as err

tacks against Germany and 20 resist

the side of England and her allies,
just as much is it our duty to refrain
ourselves from a violent anti English
propaganda and from exerting any
pressure upon our government to
favor the German side in this war.
Our government is confronted by the
hard fact that England, through her
fleet has the power to enforce much
more than Germany her own policy
regarding neutral shipping. The one
decisive move toward changing this
situation would be war with England.
That the calamity Of a war with Eng
land would be deprecated by the vast
majority OF the American people, is
beyond dispute. l believe that the
calamity OF a war with Germany
would be deprecated also. Under
these circumstances our government
must proceed with the utmost caution
and avoid any step which cannot be
justified by accepted international
usage. This is particularly true with
regard TO the expectation of arms and
munitions Of war. Many Americans.

HOLD WOOL SAYS GROWERS

SALT LAKE, July GA. ]. .Knollin,
vice president of the National Wool
growers association, arrived in Salt
Lake Saturday with Mrs. Knollin, en-
route to their home in Chicago after
an extended visit to the Pacific coast
Mr.. Knollin is optimistic over the wool
and lamb market. He said:
"The wool and lamb markets are at
their best in many years, with every
indication Of improvements. For THU
reason the woolgrowers look forward t.
a prosperous year. Ny advice to the
growers is to hold their wool for high
en- prices. The demand for wool il
foreign countries and the Australian
drought has weakened the influence o,
tariff absence as effecting the prices
Of wool in this country. Growers Wit
have held their best grades Of WOO
for higher prices will realize good price,
before long. The heavy demand To-
coarse woods by the waring nations TO
the manufacture of uniforms has clear
ed the United States of that grade O.
Wool.'

LICENSES STICK TO CARS

In the minds Of many motor car
owners exists miseoneeption ~ to
the legality Of transferred autonobils
licenses, according to statement made
Monday by County Assessor Kincaid.
He said he had received from many
quarters requests for information On
that point.
ga license cannot be transferred from
one car to another" said Mr.. Kincaid.
g When q license is taken out for GER
tain car it is good for that car only.
No matter what the circumstances, the
license is good for that car and that one
only. If the car should 60 over the
grade and become disintegrated the
license would 60 with it, and the fact
that the car has been wrecked would
not help the owner q particle when he
went to buy new one. He would have
to purchase an additional license.
eff an owner trades a car the h.
cense will still go with it. In that
event the new owner can and should
have the license transferred on our
records and placed in his name.-States-

TO REBUILD MACKAY DAM

State Engineer Smith was at work
Thursday on the report he will make
to the state land board on the Big
Lost River irrigation project and the
Mackay dam. He will recommend
that the dam be rebuilt on its present
site, using part of the material of the
dam which has been declared by a
number Of engineers to be unsafe.
In the absence of plans for such a
dam, Mr.. Smith had nothing on which
to base an estimate as to the cost of
the new dam. He said he under.
stood the Utah Construction company,
which has proposed taking over the
project has in view plan similar to
his and will be prepared to submit
plans to the land board when that
COMMITTEE meets.

sHR1NERs TO MEET TUESDAY

SEATTLE, WASH, July s.-Headed
by the Imperial Potentate of the order
in his magnificent train of seven coach
es, mobiles of the Mystic Shrine from all
parts of the country are now enroute
to the northwest wonderland for their
41st annual meeting in Seattle.
The 1meprial Potentate left New
York Tuesday, July !. He will reach
Spokane about nine days later and is
due in Seattle on Monday morning, July
I1s, to open the big meeting. Fourteen
special trains wilt escort him from spo.
kane to Seattle and thirty specials are
expected to follow. Fourteen specials
will come via Portland and Tacoma and
thirty or forty via Bellingham and
Everett.
Just what the biggest convention in
northwest annals will mean to this sec.
ton is indicated by the fact that the
bank clearings in Los Angeles, when
the meeting was held there, increased
100000; and one year ago similar
increase was registered at Atlanta, Ca,
The Shriners are noted for their love
Of good time and their abundance of
wealth. Practically all of the mobiles
and their families will make thirty
day tour of the west and most of them
will travel about 10000 miles before re.
turning home.
The program which Seattle mobiles
have arranged for their entertainment
has been pronounced the most elaborate
in the history of the order. By way of
souvenirs, each delegate will be given
an expensive smoking set for his den,
featuring the totem pole; each band and
patrol member will be presented with a
desk set, also featuring the totem pole };
and the wives Of the delegates will re.
eeive hand-carved paper knives, carved
from ivory at Point Barrow, Alaska, by
the natives.

NEW SCHOOL LAWS

The new school laws are now in
printed form and have been forwarded
to all county superintendent Of schools
for distribution to the clerks Of each
school district. The laws were pub
lished under the direction Of Miss Ber-
nice Mccoy, state superintendent Of
public instruction, and the volume has
ready reference headings and annota-
tor notes which were complied BY T. @.
Coffin, assistant attorney general. The
acts Of the last legislature not carrying
an emergency clause in May, but the
printed copies have just reached the
county superintendent. The July
teachers examinations and apportion-
ment Of state and county funds will
be conducted according to its pro-
visions.
The new law provides that 40 per
cent of the whole amount of state and
county funds will be apportioned
among the several districts in proper
ton to the number of teachers regu-
larly employed in such district 40 per
cent. apportioned per capita, among

the whole, or as much thereof as need
ed is to be the relief fund for weak
districts; per cent Of the whole
amount, or as much thereof as is
needed, is to be apportioned among
rural high school districts or consolid-
ated districts carrying high school
work. in proportion to the number Of
teachers regularly employed in such
high school work.
Any amount remaining is to be ap-
portioned per capita Of census pupils
among the several districts.
Only July and November examina-
tions are established, which will make
it essential that teachers in all schools
for the next school year, pass the July
examinations if any examinations are
to be written.
The new law requiring districts
which do not provide high school ia
pay the tuition of students attending
the high school in another district. The
tuition is paid directly BY the county
superintendeht, it, rate IS Per pupil
leach month or ~ may be charged BY
high schools having agriculture, home
economics and manual training.
One, two and three-year high schools
may be maintained in the home dis
tricts, under rulings Of the state board
Of education, the principal require
ments being having teachers with
state, life or high school certificates
and enough of them not to neglect the
lgrades.
| The demand for higher education
has become universal, IS the high
school becomes more practical in its
work and comes in touch with the life
Of its students.
1t is no longer a thing apart from
the home, the farm or business life
but its work touches every day life -
all boys and girls need it, the COM
munity needs it, the state recognizes
that need and makes it accessible to
all.
Teachers from other states asking
state certificates or high school Ger
tificates by Endorsement must take ex.
animation in the Idaho special sub.
jects: Idaho civil code and school law
and Idaho manual of the course Of
study. Applicants for high school
certificates must take examinations.
