According to officials of the Mononga-
hela division. the short train system will
have a tendency to cut down the crews
In many cases to considerably Less than
eight hours time. and tho plan will save
the company money. because the men
will be paid only for the time they are
out and not the full eight hours or more.
as has been the custom.
The salient feature Of the short train
system Is the fact that all freight runs
now scheduled on the division can be
completed In eight hours or less under
the new method. officials state that un-
less the road In blocked by wrecks or
other accidents It win not be necessary
for n freight train to consume over
eight hours In q run from one end OF the
division to the other. With the long
heavy freight trains. which have been the
rule In the past, frequently trainmen
would make from two to six hours over
time on run.

In the long chase after old Gero-
nimo, General Miles finally brought
the Photograph to bear and the mys-
FERROUS "eye," blazing out here and
there on the promontories of the long
mountain side, finally broke down the
nerves Of the old savage and he gave
up and surrendered He was sure
that the strange "eye" was searching
out his hiding places and telling the
pale faces what trails he was follow
ing. That was but so years ago, but
now double terror is following the
bandits in that same region. The avi-
ator Is riding the air along the same
mountain erests and what he discovers
he makes that same air carry in in
visible messages to the nemesis that
is pursuing those bandits. The knowl-
edge that the foe pursuing them pos
sesses such an equipment, must give
those cutthroats as creepy a feeling
as did the old scalp raiser 80 years
ago, the thought that must haunt
their sleep when they lie down at
night must be the same one that long
ago was set to the words: "Awakel
Awakel The Huns are at your gatesW
A terror, the extent of which cannot
be comprehended but which is ever
imminent is about the most trying on
the nerves of men that can be framed.
And when men know that the ven

that it is in truth eternal justice that
is on their trail, there is always be-
fore their eyes such a sword as was

II looks as if machine politics was
going to do to the Democratic party
in Idaho just what it did to the Re
publican party in the nation four
years ago. The Elder-Day scrap is
ripping the party wide open. The
Canyon county meeting Saturday
broke up in row and the result will
be two sets Of delegates to the state
convention at Pocatello, one for Day
and the other for Elder. Present in
dications are that Gem county will
have a lively skirmish between the
two factions and the Elderites have
already taken strong positions and
placed several of their heavy guns in
strong positions. Someone once said
"The Lord is on the side of the Re-
publican party" and it looks that way
this year.

quently express admiration for the
valiant French forces who have borne
the brunt of the allied fighting on the
western front. Also, they pin the
Red Badge Of Courage on the Rus
SLAMS for their standing as gluttons
for punishment. Brave Belgians and
battered Serbs are eulogized from
time to time for fierce fighting for a
forlorn hope, not to mention the
praise for German efficiency and dar-
ing in the face of heavy odds. But
the common tendency is to find fault

has shirked its part in the world war.
This fallacy is ably corrected by
Frederick Palmer, an American who

advantage of seeing from different

front like the men who do the fight
ing. To begin with, he points out
what many do not know and others
have forgotten; That the terms of the
entente agreement bound Britain to
control the seas, but required only an
expedition of 10000 for land service.
And if Britain's land part has seemed
small, don't forget that she has raised
an army of over three millions while
she has been sustaining the strongest
