WRONG SENTIMENT

Some of the papers of the state have
been inclined to bemoan the report of
the special Carey Act investigating
committee. For the most part the
papers taking such position spend
most of their time telling how much
damage such agitation is doing to
incoming capital. Few if any have
anything to say of the individual and
collective damage done to settlers
through Encouragement and fraudu-
lent advertising on the part of the
capitalists who have made failures of
certain projects. 1t would look just,
ut least, for the newspapers to weigh
both sides of proposition.
The settler usually is a man unused
to financial operations and with a
small amount of funds. When he
enters into the agreement with any
promoter, 1t is with the full intent
to fulfill his part of the agreement.
dis small amount of capital pracu-
caliy ties him to his land and to the
1aithful performance of the contract
His efforts rightly directed build UP
wealth not only for himself but for
tho county and state within which he
resides. His success and prosperity
are the drawing cards upon which the
promoter must depend altogether
His failure on the other hand has
more to do with giving the project
. black eye than the croakings or the
pessimism of the capitalist
The capitalist rarely resides within
tho state into which his investment
In made. His attitude toward thai
state is that Of an outsider, who will
take his pound of flesh and who will
by every legal method, dodge pay
MAnt of proper and just taxes, and wht
10 opposed to improvements that GU
down any portion of his pecuniary ex
pectation.
Between the two which man shoult
- protected? Is there real ques
ten as to the duty of the state and tn
newspapers and citizens within tina
state? Surely there is only one an
swer for the man who is not biased
The actual settler must be protecte'
At all hazards provided his claims ar
Just. The foolish cry for protection
Of the promoter and capitalist shout
be UNDECIDED, except as to his right
full equity. Idaho has too long pro
tected capital at the expense of he
swn citizens. 1t is time to make
decided stand for what is right, TIL
state land board cannot much longe
ignore such right unless it desire
the irrigation matter to become pc
litical issue.

HUGHES BALkS AT "CONSCRIP-
TION"

The downright refusal of Justice
Hughes to be "conscripted" into the
Presidential nomination Of 1916 by the
Republicans of Nebraska wins for him
the praise of those editorial observers
Who dread to see the trail of party
politics in the chamber Of the United
States Supreme Court. At the same
time we read in some press dispatches
from the capital that Justice Hughes
has not eliminated Himself from the
list OF candidates by insisting that his
name be kept off the primary ballot in
Nebraska, but that on the contrary
sentiment in his favor is only grow
ing stronger AS a Washington cor
respondent of the New York Herald
(Ind) and Others look ahead to the
Republican convention they see q
deadlock, due to the votes for favorite
sons OF various sections To smash it
the leaders will get together and select
= man on whom all can unite and
who will sweep the convention off
it's feet" This man Is Justice Hughes,
it Is being said in Washington, accord
ing to the Herald correspondent, nor
will the fact that he Is mot 4 caa-
didate" make any difference Incl

''The United States will have to
go through long course Of discl-
pine before thrift is established
as a national virtue to the same
extent as it is in Great Britain"
The Toronto Mail and Empire.
The movement to improve our mill |
tary preparedness is receiving nation
al attention at this time. 1t is a mat
ter of the utmost Importance.
Another and somewhat similar
problem which confronts the nation
and it's individual citizens today is the
proper conservation of national and
personal resources. 1t is admitted on
every side by those who are in a
position to know that just now is en-
phatically a time for everybody to
save as much as he can for the best
interests of all concerned.
Various plans have been inaugur-
ated to encourage saving. 1t is not
only banks that are back Of these eff
forts. In various ways a great many
employers are encouraging thrift on
the part of their employees, and there
| is an increasing number of voluntary
thrift clubs" and investment associ-
atoms. One of the latest of these to
| come to our attention Is worthy of
notice for the sake of others who may
be interested.
This saving and investing organic
alton is called the "Moody's Magazine
Savings Club" Mr. A. w. FerIin,
President of the Moody's Magazine
and Book company, New York, says:
"There have been a large number of
these clubs formed and several Of
them have completed the first ten
months. have allotted the bonds and
have started in on a second series"
The Certificate of Membership reads
as follows:
is a member of the MOODY MAGA-
ZINE SAVINGS CLUB, No. ........... OF
.............. and that he has paid to the
Treasurer of the Club the sum off,.
. dollars, the first of...-..--...-....-

BOND Name of bond to be written
in when purchased)
Said bond to be selected by him to
be purchased for him and held by the
Treasurer Of the Club in accordance
with the conditions and regulations
adopted therefor, a full understanding
of which he hereby acknowledges.
Signed Signed.
Member Treasurer.
, Thus 1t will be seen that the Idea
of the club is to help it's members pre-
pare for the future by building a
bulwark of savings and storing up fl
| nancial ammunition In the shape of
: good bonds.
This is an excellent idea, but II
anyone who reads this article is SO
situated that he cannot join such a
club he can still carry out the prin-
: ciple on his own account, Let him
> save In savings account and at the
proper time withdraw some of his
l gage or other investment recon-
e mend by his bankers.
! This has been the simple but suffi-
: cient plan of thousands who have solv-
: ed the problem of financial prepared
ness.

$21S,S19,791 $39,145,496

By the close of August foreign
merchandise in transit and in ware
house had been exhausted, and the
war was having it's full effect in
temporarily stopping shipments from
abroad. Europe recovered from that
paralysis during October and Novem-
Der, however land in steadily increas-
ing its sales of manufacturers here.
Taking the five months tabulated
above, however, and comparing the
figures of the two periods they rep
resent we find that under the protec-
tive tariff we sold the rest of the
world $21S,S19.791 more of mer-
chandise than was sold us, while I'M
der the presnt tariff there was sold
to us $29,145,496 more than we sold
abroad.
That is to say, we lost our $21S,-
Sl9,791, and i'm addition went S39,-
l45.496 on the wrong side of the ac-
count.
Closed factories are not the result
of the war; they are the result of
Free Trade tariff.

THE EEE SYSTEM.

We would like to support candi-
dates for State Senator and Repres-
entative this year who will favor
3bolishing the fee system generally
in State and county offices. Especial
ly are we in favor OF placing the
Circuit and County Court Clerks on
salaries. letting whatever fees which
may be allowed go 10 the county. A
large part of these fees should be
abolished, in both offices. While
they may not seem too high for
the official they are often out of all
proportion to the amount involved.
In the litigation necessary to settle
estates, and the steps necessary to
provide for these settlements, the
costs often leave very little for the
interested parties. There is pay dirt
here for some candidate for the State
Senate or House of Representatives
who will make a little study of the
question. Ii he takes the right
course, he will find a responsive
chord among hundreds of our people.

Guessing and knowing.

On the same day that the New
York Herald printed a prosperity
editorial, and on the same page, il
printed the following:
To the Editor of the Herald-It
gets my nerves when | read in the
newspapers about prosperity. In the
works of the Standard Oil Co, and
the Tidewater Oil Co., here several
hundred employees have been laid
off. At the Central Railroad coal
wharf the men are working two DAYS
week, and today the Babcock &
wilcox Co., starts its large factory
on half time. This plant employs
several thousand men and had been
working full time. Reader.
Bayonne, N. Y, Dec. 3, 1914.
Somebody is mistaken. Either il
is the Herald man assigned to the
writing of prosperity editorials or
else ii is the Bayonne man who re-
ports the unemployment of several
thousand men in his section. If an
impartial Investigation sought TO
learn the actual truth regarding
Free-Trade depression and distress,
would II take the word of the Herald
editor or the Bayonne man? Would
II accept guess in preference to a
fact?
