There is very little that L can say
to you," President Wilson said, Eek
ccpt to give YOU a very cordial well
come and to express my very great
pleasure in this association of laymen
with the government. But 1 do want
to say this:
I think the whole nation. is con-
virced that we ought to be prepared,
not for war, but for defense, and very
adequately prepared, and that the pre-
paration for defense is rot merely
technical matter. 1t is not a matter
that the army anG navy alone can take
care of, but a matter in which we
must have the cooperation OF the best
brains and knowledge of the country
outside the official service of the gov
eminent as well as inside For my
mart | feel that it is only in the spirit
of q true democracy that we get to-
gether to lend such voluntary aid
the sort of aiG that comes from inter-
est from d knowledge of the varied
circumstances that are involved IN
handling a nation.
Very Serious Purpose.
Il want you to feel-those of you
who are coming to the assistance of
the professional officers OF the gov
ernment-tnat we have very serious
purpose; that we have not asked you
a very definite and practical purpose
to get you to give us your best indie
pendent thoughts as to how we ought
to make ready for any duty that may
fall upon the natiOn-
Il do not have to eXpound it to you ;
you know as well as L do the spirit OF
America. The spirit of America is one
of peace, but one of independence 1t
is a spirit that@is profoundly concerned
with peace, because it can express 1t
self best only in peace 1t is the spirit
of peace and good will and of human
freedom, but it is also the spirit of a
nation that is self-cOnsciOus, that
knows and loves its mission in the
world.
To Safeguard America

working as those who would change
anything of America, but only as those
who would safeguard everything in

Acute ArtTCuHar

The exact cause OF rheumatism is I'M
known, though it is generally believed to
be due to excess of uric acid in the blood.
1t may be also said with equal truth that no
remedy has been found which is a specific

hands of one observer we find that a certain

to be great disappointment. All physt-
clans however agree that every method of
treatment is aided by the administration of
some remedy to relieve the pain and quiet
the nervous system and DIR. w. s. Schultze
expresses the opinion of thousands of prac-
titiOners when he says that AZ IL Kamnia
Tablets should be given preference over all
other remedies for the relief of the pain in
all forms of rheumatism. These tablets can
be purchased in any quantity. They are
also unsurpassed in headaches, neuralgias
and all pain. Ask for AK Tablets.

An Easy Way to
Increase Weight
Good Advise for Thin Folks.

Good ADVISE LOT
The trouble with most thin folks who
wish to gain weight is that they insist on
drucging their stomach or surfing 1t with
greasy foods rubbing on useless flesh
creams or following some foolish physical
culture stunt. while the real cause of thin
ness goes untouched. You cannot get fat
until your digestive tract asslm1iates the
food you eat
There is a preparation known to rel1aDle
druggists almost everywhere which seem
ingIy embodies the missing elements. needed
hy the digestive organs to help them con
vert food into rich. fat-laden blood This
modern treatment is called SargOl and has
been termed the greatest of flesh-buildings-
SargOl aims through regenerat1ve, recon
structive powers to coax the stomach ana
intestines to literally soak up the fattenlng
elements of your food and pass them into
the blood where they are carried to the
starved. broken-dow cells and tissues of
YOUR body. You can readily picture what
result this amazing transformation should
produce as with increased weight the
cheeks fill out, hollows about neck, shout
ders and bust disappear and from 10 to 20
pounds of solid, healthy flesh is added to
the body. Sargol is absolutely harmless,
inexpensive efficient. Arnold Drug Co.
and other leading druggists of this vicinity
have it and will refund your money if you
are not satisfied. as per the guarantee
found in every package
NOTE :-Sargol is recommended only as
a flesh builder and while excellent results
in cases of nervous indigestion, etc, have
been reported care should be taken about
using it unless Il gain of weight is desired.

POEM TELLS STORY
OF SHATTERED HOPE

The Portland Oregonian has re-
ceived from Helen ~ Packard of The
Dalles copy of poem which has
long been in her possession. 1t was
given her more than 80 years ago in
Springfield, Mass, by a colored man,
Henry Thcirman, who served in the
navy during the Civil War. 1t was
written on the back of $500 Con-
federate note and Mr.. Thierman had
several copies printed on facsimiles
Of the note. The poem follows;
Representing nothing on Gods green
earth
And naught in the waters below it
AS the pledge of nation that's dead
and gone,
Keep it, dear friend, and show it.
Show it to those who will lend an ear
To the tale this trfle will tell,
OF Liberty born, of patriots dream
OF storm-cradled nation that fell.
Too poor to possess the precious ores
And too much OF stranger to Dor
row,
We issued today our promise to Fay"
And hoped to redeem on the NOR
row.
The days rolled on, and weeks be-
came years,
But our Golfers were empty STILL
Coin was 50 scarce the treasury
quaked
If dollar should drop in the till.
But the faith that was in us was
strong indeed,
Though our poverty we'll we dis
cerned,
And this little check represented the
pay
That our suffering veterans earned.
They knew it had hardly value in
gold,
Yet as gold our soldiers received it;
It gazed in our eyes with a promise
to pay,
And every true soldier believed it,
But our boys little thought of price
or pay,
Or of bills that were overdue
We knew if it bought our bread TODAY,
Twas the best our poor country
could do.
Keep it, It tells all our history over
From the birth OF the dream to its
last.
Modest and born OF the Angel of
Hope,
Like our hope OF success, it passed.

WHY HIBERNATE?
(Owyhee Avalanche.)

(Owyhee Avalanche)
No doubt Gov Alexander is trying
to make record for economy during
his term, but why make the state
hibernate for the next decade in order
to allow our merchant chief to ride his
hobby to the detriment of the states
growth? The state owns a valuable
body OF land in the Gem district in
this county and should bear its burden
the same as the private settler. Every
acre of state land in any irrigation dis
trict should be made to pay its proper
tion toward the maintenance OF the
project as the actual settler The
recent refusal of the governor to sane
ton the payment of the states debt to
the Gem Irrigation District looks as
if the chief executive is not so much
in the welfare OF the set
tiers as he is in making that wonder
Jul saving OF million dollars a year.
If this method of saving is to be put
in practice for the next two years we
believe the housekeeping will start in
the executive office instead Of the
cellar two years hence

NARRoWNESS VS.. GOODNESS

We are apt to call any narrow,
ignorant outburst OF conscience, good"
says Rev, Frank Crane, in Foot
notes to Life" speaking Of some
religious crank, or some little soul
that has been swept away by the
mob-ruSh 10 some new fad, or some
vicious, perverted life that ilourishes
one little moral excellence, we say
that such a one is good. The CRATER
who is kind TO the poor, the boodler
who keeps his promises, the burglar
who does not use tobacco, the hard
hearted, pig-hcaded, closc-hsted old
sElntlint who never INDUCES in pro-
tame language, we think they ought
to have a good mark.
There is nothing more decertivc
than a little fragment OF morality
which an otherwise immoral soul Dor
rows like peacock feather TO strut
with.
Real goodness, that which is OF
any mortal account to oneself or
to Others is the product of the sum
total OF all one is, does, says and
thinks, 1t is the flavor of the man,
his entire personality. Goodness is the
truit OF lie, not something to be
picked I'm and worn on the coat.
Great moral energy, says Her
bart, is the result OF broad views. and
OF whole unbroken masses of
thought

WANTE STATE AID
FOR THE CANYON
COUNTY FAIR

An effort will be Put forth TO have
the Canyon County Fair made state
institution and a bill has been intro
duccd at this session OF the leglsla-
turc having this purpose in view.
Senator Hayes has interested himself
in the bill and will urge its passage.
The Canyon County Fair has grown
beyond Canyon County. 1t is today
looked upon as one OF the best fairs
in the northwest and by far the best
in Idaho. With a little help it can
easily be made worthy of the state oil
Idaho.
The people of Boise tried to main
tain state fair for a number of years.
1t degcnerated into race meet and
was finally abandoned altogether. In
view OF the death of the Boise fair
a great many people in all sections OF
the state have suggested that the Can
yon County Fair be made state fair.
The Canyon County association has
ample grounds, buildings and facilities
of all kinds 1t has good transporta-
ton facilities being on the main line
Of the Oregon Short Line with side
track TO the grounds. The location
is ideal in every respect and as cen
trally located as any in the state.
The Proposed Law.
he bill which Senator Hayes has
introduced is as follows.
An act making an appropriation in
aid and encouragement of the Canyon
County Fair Association, providing
the methods and manner of payment
thereof, and when the same shall be
available.
BE it enacted by the Legislature of
the State OF Idaho
Section |. Whereas, the Canyon
County + air Association has valuable
and permanent buildings and grounds
at Caldwell, in the State of Idaho, and
IS the oldest and one OF the largest
tair associations iii the State Of Idaho
and has performed excellent and con
tlnuouS work fon more than fifteen
years last past in aiding the develop
ment OF horticulture, agriculture and
live stock industry; and, whereas,
the benefits derived and to be derived
from the continuation of the opera
ton OF the Fair Association are of
such state wide character and inn
portancc that it would be fitting and
proper to extend state aid to said
Fair Association for the Improvement
and enlargement of its excellent work
Now, therefore, there is hereby APP
out of any money in the
state treasury not otherwise appro-
prlated the sum of ten thousand dol !
lars, which may be used by said fair
association for the payment of prem
lums, prizes, expenses OF judges, gen
eral advertising, and expenses of a
like kind and character, to increase
The benefits and enlarge the opera
tons OF said association.
Section p The money herein ap-
shall be paid out Oh war
rants by the state auditor in settle
nent OF bills duly approved by the
president and secretary of said as
ISOLATION and approved by the state
board of examiners in the same man
1er as other claims against the state. |
md it shall be available for the said |
Uses OF said association al any time
between the time this act goes into
ELECT and the first Monday after the
lFst day Of January, 1917.

into the question. when he knows and
every one knows, that Governor Mex
andcr has insisted from the start that
he must have the horticultural depart
ment for political patronage. He re-
fused to consider the recommends
lions of the horticultural association
because the men recommended would
not pledge themselves to appoint 4
Democratic protcgc OF his as state IN
spector, without regard to his quail
hcation for the position and no self
respecting man would accept an APP
pointmcnt as member OF the BOARD
on these conditions.
"As the ditorial-secretary well
knows, our fight is to keep the depart
men from being dragged into politics
by peanut politician who has no re-
srect for established precedent or the
wishes of the fruit growers. All he
can sec is that there is job, paying
a small salary, that he wants to place
on the political pie counter, and he is
determined to carry out his rule or
ruin policy, regardless of conse-
quenccs to one OF the most important
industries of the state
ICOplC Nuol dy.
NV commission was originally Civ
en- me by Governor Hawley, on the
recommendation of the fruit men OF
the state, and, when resign, it will
be in compliance with their request
and not at the demand of a man who
is temporarily in power and considers
himself the master instead Of the SER
want of the people.
II am charged in this editorial with
debating the affairs Of the horticul-
tural department. AS every member
of the board, and every one at all la
miliar with the matter, knows, this
charge is absolutely false, for | have
no more authority than any other
Of the board, and our rulings
have always been made by unanim-
Gus consent of all the members. For
verification of these facts ! refer the
editorial secretary to ID. l.. lngard
whom the governor is seeking to re
appoint on the board, and who has adj
mtted to me that, in order to secure
his re-appOintment, he was obliged to
pledge himself to support the COVER
nor's Democratic protege for the posi-
ton of state inspector, regardless of
the question of qualifications.
Open Answer Demanded.
Again | challenge the editorial
secretary to produce his facts,
and by failing to do so he must neces-
sarily admit the falsity Of his gener-
al charges
incidentally, it might not be i'm
proper to ask why the taxpayers of
the state should pay the salary OF this
editorial-private-secretary when he is
dcvoting his time and at
tention to working up scurr;lous at
.acks on members of state boards who |
are donating their time and attention
o the public service.
