FORD'S PEACE
JUNKET

Henry Ford has chartered a ship
to take a self appointed embassy to
Europe to see if they can restore
peace. When the ship left port there
was press reporter for every one
and a half peace commissioner-66
commissioners and "A reporters and
stenographers.
The incident and they way they
have talked SO far about what they
are going to do and how they hope
to do 1t, recalls the trip of .Coxey's
army to Washington in 1894. It
merely emphasized a bad condition
and made popular the expression,
Keep off the grass"
Then there was the raid on Har-
per's Ferry by John Brown, expect
ing to put down slavery by calling
upon all slaves and slave sympathiz-
ers to spring to arms" and accom-
plish something by a great popular
movement where responding to the
call was like placing ones own neck
in loop.

THE PAVEMENT
QUESTION

Three years ago the matter OF paw
ing streets was discussed and rejected
by a majority of the people most d.
rectly interested At that time it
was thought better to go on with the
work of grading the streets of the
whole town and getting them into
as good condition as earth roads
could be made and to get a better
water system and better fire pro-
lection before laying the pavements.
During the three years it has been
demonstrated that the fire protection
is more adequate than was generally
supposed, and that the weakness of
the system lay more in lack of or
ganization of the forces at hand than
in the supposed lack of water pres
sure. During the three years the
street traffic has greatly increased,
and with 1t the expense of sprinkling
the dust in summer and combating
the mud in winter. The increased
damage to stocks of goods from hav-
ing the dust blowing in summer and
the mud tracking on the sidewalks
and into buildings both in winter
and from the sprinkling in the
sprinkling season has imposed itself
more and more upon the considera-
ton of the public. The inconveni-
ence of going half a block around,
in order to cross a street, has come
to be felt more as the street travel
increases. The damage to all We
hicles and especially to motor-driven
vehicles, from operating in the mud
has come to be felt more all the time
In order to keep down the dust it
is necessary to sprinkle vigorously,
and the moment 1t begins to rain
there Is mud In town even when the
country roads are in good condition.
People from the country on tying
their teams, find it troublesome to
get to the sidewalks on account of
the mud, and although it is shallow,
yet 1t has come to be considered the
most pressing subject for considera-
ton.
Blackfoot is especially fortunate in
its environments. The underground
expense of building is as light as can
be found anywhere. There is no
rock of anykind to add to the trouble
and expense of excavating, nor any
need for drainage to keep Easements
dry. In most cities and towns, one
or both of these problems is pres
ent. In many places the hills have
to be cut down and fills made, with
all the attendant expense of laying
water and sewer lines through deep
cuts or in the built-in portions or
of blasting through rock and then
combating the frost that reaches to
greater depth in such materials.
Blackfoot has none of these prob
lens, but has the most favorable and
most inexpensive materials to deal
with, and so light has been the ex-
pense of construction work, that peo-
pie are inclined to magnify the diff
ficulties of making any substantial
Improvements.

Smith and Jones look much

was in a certain big hotel not a
