A laxative today saves a sick child tomorrow. Children simply win not take the time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish; j; stomach sour
 Look at the tons1e, mother If coated, or your child is nstIess, cross, feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other children's ail- ment, give a teaspoonfu1 of .Ca1ifor- mia Syrup Of Figs then don't worry, because 1t is perfectly harmless, and in a few hours all this constipation poison, sour bile and fermenting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. A thorough inside cleansing is oftimes all that is neces- sary It should be the first treatment given in any sickness
 Beware of counterfeit fig syrups Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "Ca1ifornia Syrup of F'igs,'' which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-up plainly printed on the bottle. Look carefully and see that it is made by the Call fornia Fig Syrup Company y.,f--Adv.

While the public utilities commits
sion is under fire from the state leg
islAture, there are some features of
the present act which need adjustment.
While the commission is allowed broad
powers in controlling competition,
there is nothing in the Ryan act to al
low them to control mergers of utili-
ties such as may be the outcome in
some fields 1t has been suggested
by some of the men who have followed
the workings of the act that clause
placed in the law to prevent consoli-
dation would give the commission a
chance to pass upon such mergers and
fix the rates and conditions of service
before allowing two such companies
to combine The Times believes that
with control of rates and the condi-
lions under which mergers are to be
permitted, that the public should be
in all cases amply protected. If know
ing that it will not be allowed to make
the public pay for its own business
folly, any company desires to entei
any field there should be no good rea.
son why a utility corporation should
enter a field unless it desired to give
service and reap only a Legitimate
profit.

protested against these things for -four
years, and the writer has personally

closest friends see what the conse-
queuCes must be to the Republican
party, little thinking that dishonor and
official misrepresentation of funds
would be added to the offenses against
the people which we enumerated while
pleading for greater consideration of
their welfare.
What the harvest is to be no one can
foretell; the people have ceased being
surprised at added developments and
are prepared for anything. From a
Republican standpoint the outlook is
most gloomy, but the canker must be
removed regardless of the painfulness
of the operation There must not be

WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BE?
Three weeks ago the editor of the

on political lines only. There are

The newspapers of Southern Idaho,
which have consistently favored the
power company's side in the contro-
versy regarding competition, are now
bowling about abolishing the utility
commission, seeming to forget that the
commission primarily intended to pro-
tect the people rather than the cor
porations. 1t is amusing to say the
least, how such papers pirate about
the dear people being injured by dis
astrous competition While the deci-
sion favored monopoly the monopolis-
tic press forgot all about the dear
people, who We're entitled to adequate
and progressive power service 1t is
high time that the consumers take
note of the attitude of such papers and
put the ban upon them, for it was the
support given the old utility commits
sion by the corporation papers which
sustained it in course that was an
affront to the people of the state,
Any person can read between the lines
of the utterances of such papers about
abolishing the commission as merely a
blow struck for the corporation. dis
guised as fear for the consumers. The
people of this state wanted utility
commission to protect them against
excessive rates. They do not want
the commission abolished so that the
corporations can again prey upon then
by excessive rates. If the bugaboC
power mergers come in the course OF
time. the consumers have all the more
reason to want the protection of the
commission against increased rates
To say that the people will have tC
pay for duplicated systems is to dis.
credit the intelligence of any body OF
men who may sit upon the commits
sion. Prices are based upon cost OF
adequate service rather than upon
duplication and the merged company
could not expect TO be Paid for its eff
forts to rout a business rival What
protection will the people have with
out the commission, with the merged
company left to make any rate it de-
sires? The papers which advocated
abolishing the commission cannot be
said to be working for the consumers
interests and should drop the cloak
which SO little DISCUSSES their cor.
poration aims.
