alent upon delivery?

We know that the average con-
sumner does not feel that his local
merchant is a robber or a cheat
but, like all humankind, the cata-
logues and prices of mail order
houses appeal to him, and he for
wards his order and cash without
considering the injustice he is doing
himself, his merchant and his home
town.
1t seems unbelievable, but it is
nevertheless a fact, showing the en-
tire lack of any sense of justice,
that many people regard their local
stores as merely institutions of
Accommodations. When these people
have cash to spend it goes to the
far-away or nearby mail order
houses, but when times are dull,
when they are sick or out of work,
or during the season when farmers
are not turning their produce into
cash, or the city employee is marked
off the payroll, what do they do?
Do they write to the catalogue
houses and ask for credit?
If they did do you think they
would get it? Not on your life!
Those concerns must have cash,
must have it in advance, must have
it before you can even see the goods
you buy. The consumer sends his
money and then sits down and
waits until they get good and ready
to fill his order.
But when home people want
credit or favors of any kind they
hustle off to their home merchant,
very obligingly order what they
want, and tell him to charge it, ex-
pecting him to wait at least from
one to six months for his pay.
In buying from your home mer-
chants you deal with neighbors.
Buy with goods before you. Pay
when you get the goods if you so
elect. Have goods delivered free.
Return goods if not satisfactory.
Build up your home store and bust
ness.
Help build up your own home
town and make of yourself a man
worthy of your day and time.
Every man should take pride in be-
ing a good American citizen, and
we believe most men do and that
most men are, or at least desire to
be.

may be. Other states have been in.
structed for their favorite sons,
why not Idaho?
But it appears to have been de-
creed that the delegation is not to
be tied up to any candidate. It is
to be left free to trade with.
II not declaring for any indivi-
dual, the convention should at least
declare itself on one point. 1t
should instruct its delegations to
Chicago to vote for none other
than-A Republican.
It should make it plain that the
Republicans Of Idaho do not favor
the nomination Of any man who is
not safely grounded in the cardinal
doctrines Of Republicanism.
It should make it plain that the
freedom of choice granted the dele
cation does not extend to broad
license to join in any scheme to
turn real Republicanism out and
install subterfuge.
It should make it plain that the
delegation is not to surrender the
birthright of the Republican party
for mess of expediency pottage.
1t was shown a few years ago
that even after the Idaho delegation
had walked out of the Republican
national convention that it could
nominate a Republican for president
and that the party could elect him.
There is a big chance for another
row this year. Will we have another
walking delegation?
Should not the Twin Falls conven-
ton remove all doubts in this con-
nection?-The Idaho Daily States
man.

FREE INFORMA

The amount Of printed matter
sent out by the various state and
national bureaus to newspaper
Offices is quite extraordinary. It Is
sent out with the hope that the
newspaper addressed will be able to
put the matter in type and publish
it for the benefit of it's readers.
Matter pertaining to good roads,
soil improvement, crop growing,
dairy livestock, silos and silage,
alfalfa and clover--everything in the
catalog of human knowledge, is
handed to the newspaper. It is free
as the air we breathe. The object
is to send it out through the news
paper in order that the people may
have an opportunity to read and
educate themselves to better things.
But for reasons that are obvious. a
very small part of this matter ever
reaches its intended destination.
However there are other channels
for circulating matter for general
educative purposes. Books are the
mediums. Through these there is
ample opportunity to learn all the
earned knowledge of the world up
to the present time and the library
is the depository for the books.
Wide-awake, progressive COM
munities, even smaller than Ken
drick, have taken hold of the work
of educating the public through
established libraries. Here the
free use of books, pamphlets. and
all kinds of profitable reading
matter would be of inestimable
value to the reading public and
would bring returns even an hun
fold.

It should be the slogan of every
rural consumer never to send away
for goods that he can just as we'll
buy at home. Every time you send
a dollar to an out-of-town dealer,
as far as you and your community
are concerned, it is practically out
of circulation.
Your own home merchant is the
one who helps to keep up your
schools, your churches and your
town. He is the one who deserves
your trade and not some catalogue
house in Chicago or elsewhere.
When you have nothing to give
in exchange, to whom do you go
for Accommodations until some un-
certain time when you can pay?
Do you not always find your home
merchant reaGy and willing to let
his goods go on promises, not guar
anteed notes, but verbal promises,
trusting to your honesty and good
luck in meeting the obligation
later?
How many farms and homes
have been paid for by merchants
advancing both the goods necessary
to keep life in the body and cash to
meet that dreaded interest on the
mortgage?
Under the same conditions would
the benefactor trust the merchant
for months and months with the
produce of his farm. or labor, or
would he ask for cash or its equiv

EQUAL SUFFRAGE

The suffrage delegates to the St.
Louis Democratic National Conven-
ton on June ID, are going to
impress the Democrats with their
presence by means of a unique fea-
ture, "a walkless parade" Rows
upon rows of white clad women
decked with yellow streamers and
,sashes, and carrying picturesque
yellow parasols, will form a COM
plete line around the jefferson Hotel
and the Coliseum, the two central
points for the delegates, so that
every man as he comes and goes all
day long will be surrounded and
confronted by the visible indication
that women all over the United
States want the vote, and moreover
want Suffrage plank in the Demo-
cratic platform. During the even
ing automobiles will be stationed at
intervals, from which men and
women will make Suffrage speeches,
reminding the delegates again of
the Suffrage plank.
The Congressional Suffrage Union
will receive assistance from many
prominent men all over the country.
Among the western governors who
have pledged support in securing
the enfranchisement of the whole
nation are:- Governor Samuel V.
Stewart of Montana, who is demo-
crat; Governor Arthur Capper of
Kansas, who is republican; and
Governor John P. Kendrick of
Wyoming, a democrat. 1t is safe
to follow where Idaho has so success
fully led.

FOR REPUBLICANISM

The desire of the dominating
leaders of the Republican party
seems to be that the Idaho delega-

There is some possibility that the
single tax idea may yet prevail. In
many sections of the United States
there are laws being put into opera
tion levying the major portion of
taxes on land and in a great mea-
sure exempting improveme nts and
the products Of individual industry.
Houston, Texas, has adopted a
method of taxing real estate it's cash
value and buildings and other i'm
provements at one-fourth their
value. Pittsburg is exempting
machinery, merchandise and greatly
reducing or buildings and increas-
ing on land. New Jersey is advo-
eating a similar taxation. The
whole idea seems to be to stimulate
rather than retard industry and at
the same time prevent the extensive
holdings Of real estate for specula-
tive purposes only.
While there is some justification
in the general advance in price of
goods into which German manu-
featured products enter, it is alto
gether likely that this is used as
pretext to raise the price upon
many other articles.
Even the price Of shoestrings is
said to have doubled in price. After
fifty years Of protective tariff it
would seem that we should at least
be able to manufacture our own
shoestrings despite the European
war. After all too much protection
for Infant industries" may keep
America perpetually in the infant
class. When we are forced to face
the fact that we cannot even pro-
duce such ordinary things as shoe
strings and overalls without outside
help one begins to believe the
American manufacturer has simply
been slipping the price tag on the
European made article.

$4,000 for State Road Here

A. j. Kent, who will be Boundary
county's representative in the legis-
lature which will convene the first
of January, feels that with a demo-
cratic majority in the legislature
the republican members are likely
to be considerably handicapped in
passing legislation wanted by the
minority party.
Mr.. Kent stated yesterday that
there was one matter upon which he
planned to devote a great deal of
his time and that is to secure an
appropriation of $4,000 for the i'm
provement of the National Parks
Highway from the Montana state
line to the Washington state line
In this effort Mr.. Kent expects to
have the help of the Bonner county
delegation which is democratic. If
the appropriation is secured the
money can be used to excellent adj
vantage in putting the National
Parks Highway through Bonner and
Boundary counties in first class
shape. Such an appropriation would
mean that the state would take
over the road as state highway
and after doing so the maintenance
of the road would be state work.

WITNESS OF 1. w. w. BATTLE
"Spot" Emery Tells of Experience
in Seattle-Former Resident.

c.. B. Emery, better known as
spot" around Boomers Ferry, where
he made his home for several years,
is now in business in Seattle, Wash.
In a letter recently written to his
old friend, B. H. Walker, Mr. Emery
tells of witnessing the arrival of the
boat carrying members of the l.
w. w. from Everett to Seattle:
81 was down at the docks when
they came in" writes Mr.. Emery.
"There were 200 policemen and $50
militiamen and "jackies" there to
meet them. The policemen had
sawed-off shotguns and revolvers too,
and were loaded to the eyebrows.
The l. w. WIS did not dare to
wink an eyebrow. The soldiers all
carried 300 rounds each and had a
machine gun set on a truck ready
to sweep in any direction. When
the l. w. WIS had enough there
were five dead and 20 wounded and
they were a mighty tame bunch.
There are over 900 of them in Jail
here now and there is likely to be
trouble again around here for in
Everett every man carries a gun for
the 1. w. WIS and they have a
plan perfected to railroad the l.
w. WIS out of town. l was over
to see the sheriff. He used to work
with me in Great Falls, Mont, in
1901. He is a fine fellow and is
not afraid of a gatling gun. He
got two shots in the leg but will
recover. About 200 shots in all
were fired-a regular battle. The
boat carrying the 1. w. WIS has
l 100 marks on it and how anybody
got out of it is a mystery. The
docks are all shot up and there are
900 shot marks on the piers. One
of the deputy sheriffs died today
which makes total of dead and
81 wounded"
