c. A. Gieer, of Spokane, was in
this city this week calling on Prof.
Best. His mission is in the interest
of the young and rising generation.
The work he took up with the Pro-
fessor was termed Thrift, some-
thing that must be handled by the
teachers of our schools. Prof. Best
being a wide-a-wake man in his pro-
fession, readily saw what the plan
meant to the children and is heartily
in favor of introducing it in our
schools. The first step is in the saw
ing of money. The local banks
will take it up with the school and
furnish saving banks for Those that
want to save money and each child
can have its own bank account.
Other steps in the matter will be
made known at times. Ask the
Professor in regard to the matter
and then urge the children to
make it one of their parts of school
work.

Lighting System
To Be Installed
Mr.. Dunkle Granted a Ger
tificate of Public Con-
venience

Boise, Oct. L. Especial. "A cer-
tificate of public convenience and
necessity has been granted by the
public utilities commission to A. ".
Dunkle. permitting him to install
an electric power system for the
village Of Kendrick, Latah county.
The cost of the system Mr.. Dunkle
proposes to construct was estimated
in his application at $4,000.
There is now no electric system
to serve the territory covered by
the certificate. The applicant for
the certificate was ordered by the
commission to file with it a copy of
any franchise he may receive, to
keep an accurate account of all ex-
penditures in the construction of
the system, and to file with the
commission a schedule of the rates
established.
A new schedule has been filed
with the public utilities commission
by the Kendrick Water company.
1t is SO complicated that the COM
mission has not yet been able to
determine what reductions and in
creases in rates it includes.

Death of PIONEER

Mrs. Maria Herbert died at her
home in Fort Lapwai, September
80, 1915 and was buried in the
American ridge cemetery last Sum
day. The funeral services were
held in the Presbyterian church IN
Kendrick Sunday morning atb1
O'Clock. The sermon was delivered
by DR.. Smith, pastor of the church.
The deceased was born in Ohio in
1910. In 1857 she crossed the
plains with her parents to California
where they lived until 1877 when
they came to this section of the
country. The deceased was a school
teacher for many years. For nine
teen years she, with her husband,
who died some years ago, lived on
American ridge. For five years
after his death she lived with her
nephew in Kendrick and about q
year ago they moved to Fort Lap
wal, where she ended her long life
of usefulness.

Usual Number
Divorces Ahead
rs Cases on Calendar

Judge Steele will hold a regular
term of court in Nez Perce county,
commencing October Is. There
probably will be rs cases on the
calendar, of which perhaps 80 will
be divorces. There is little variety
to these divorce complaints, which
usually charge desertion, non-sup-
port. cruelty, or two or all three
of these causes. A large number
of these cases are not contested,
which gives the court little chance
to do otherwise than grant them.
In the state Of Washington, when
there is no appearance on behalf of
the defendant, the prosecuting at
torney is required to appear, and
this appearance often results in
bringing out evidence which defeats
the action.

NEW CHARITY ORGANIZATION IN
FOR A PROBING
The press agent for the United
Charities hasn't been on the job for
some time. A month ago Chicago
ans were reminded daily of the
money needed by the U. c. to con-
tinue their noble" work.
The people, learning that only 35
cents of each dollar they contributed
goes to relieve the suffering of the
poor, have failed to respond. Shortly
after the campaign was secretly pro-
nOunced a fiEzle new organization
sprang into existence. It is called the
Chicago Community Trust and is
being fOstered by the Harris Trust
and Savings Bank.
The purpose of this organization is
to collect money which will be turn
ed over to the various charities of
the city.
Thinking it rather peculiar that an
organization should be formed for
this purpose the CuTTan Investigation
committee of the Illinois legislature
has decided to investigate. The
trust" will be asked to detail it's
purpose and plans of operation at a
future meeting of the committee.
Yesterday the Hebrew Institute
was visited and o. KID by the COM
mittee. Today the members will con-
tinue to check up on charitable in
situations and homes for children to |
determine if recommended changes
have been made.
The committee yesterday decided |
to send investigators throughout the !
state to check up on 600 boys who |
were placed with farmers by juvenile
officers and whose salaries of $40 a
month has never been accounted for.

MERELY COMMENT


Deneen played the newspaper
game, just like Wayman did.
Now that Thompson, Lundin, Low
den ct al. are after him, it will be in
teresting to see if the newspapers
throw him.
Will they do it in order to try to
capture Thompson?
Bill WeatherFax wants to work the
street car men longer hours so as to
keep them out of mischief.
It beats the band how a mans ideas
change when he moves from the
working class into the employing
class.
As superintendent of the street
railway, Weatherwax draws $4,000
year for helping 100000 Busby,
$4,000 Blair and $4,000 Roach sit
down on the men who run the rail-
way for from % to 30 cents an hour.
Did YOU notice that Busby ad-
mitted that the wages of street rail-
way employees were higher under pub
lie ownership?
= That's a Cinch-there are no mil
lions to pay as dividends on watered
stock.
Some of those millions can be d.
Vided up among the employees.
Gov. Dunno helped some when he
vetoed that moving picture censor
ship bill.
One censorship is not only enough,
but sometimes too much.
At any rate one Funkhouser is en-
tiTely too much.
So long as Mayor Thompson stands
by the people he won't need the news
papers.
But if he ever concludes to throw
the people, then he'll need the news
papers.
And when he gets 'em they'll be
about as valuable to him as they were

the relentless forces that mock
At the fury of a maddened mill
tarism; if a score of Lusitanias
and their human freight were to
be treacherousIy destroyed, it
would not affect the ultimate
outcome of the conflict.
The outstanding result has
been simply to sload upon Ger
many a burden of infamy, to
wiring from neutral nations
around the globe one universal
cry of eXecration which is a sent
ence of outlawry. She boasts
that she has taught England and
America a lesson. Truly, she has.
She has taught the world that a
nation drugged with the spirit of
militarism is menace not alone
TO its neighbOrs, but to all hui
mainly. and that until that mad
delusion is swept away there will
be no more peace or security on
this earth.
Germany is no longer a nation
at war, but a nation urged by
blind savagery. She has put hels
self beyond the pale of a civiliza-
ton. And the most dreadful
prospect to contemplate is that
even war may not expiate her
bloodguiltiness, but that for gen
erations TO come the races of men
viii shrink from her name as at

months ago. Politics demands,
therefore. some proof ii military
supremacy; and it is the govern
mental idea that can be supplied
by the ihdlscrininate shedding
OF blood, even tho it be of wom-
en- and children. Nothing can
be clearer than that the sinking
OF the Lusitania vas TIE act Of
men Infatuated BY despair.
Next to the naked horror of the
deed its most striking phase is
IT'S psychological testimony re-
garding the German mind.
Months ago newspapers discuss
ed the effects Of The teaching
that for the last half century
have been instilled into the Ger
man people and gave warning
that this poisonous philosophy
must eventually produce whole
sale savagery. Now it is posi-
BILE to survey in retrospect the
steps in reyersion. The Gov
ernment which violated Belgium
could not constantly stay its hand
from the destruction of Louvain,
MahneS and Aersh0t. Extorting
huge leyies from helpless cities
was but a preliminary TO the hurl.
ing of bombs upon the sleeping
homes of Antwerp and the I'M
/ protected watering places of Eng
land. The use Of machines Il
pour deadly gases into the
trenches of an enemy, booming
men to a death OF tortue or q life
Of inValidism, smote the world
with horror; but the adoption OF
this device had been preceded
by the spraying Of opponents
with streams OF burning oil.
Truly the real warning Of the
systematic murder b. subma
rine attacks on passenger ships
Twas not given by advertisement,
but by the grisly record Of the
German in Belgium and France.
But there is an incident more
eloquent Of psychological peryer
sion chan any of these. There
We're towns in Germany where
the Lusitania massacre was cele-
brated with public rejoicing and
where the very school children
received a holiday in order that
they might lisp their innocent eX-
ultation over the drowning of
mothers and babes, hailed thru
ont the Empire as a lesson to the
enemy and neutrals alike. Yet
the most convincing evidence of
distorted judgment IS found in
the German belief that the sink
ing OF the Lusitania embodied a
military victory. The advantage
consisted solely in destroying a
ship worth some millions of dol
lars; but no military purpose
what ever was served. The act
did not shorten the war by an
hour; it did not weaken to the
extent Of one man nor one gun
