The services Of last Lords day
morning were the best we have haC
since the writer took the work here
We are glad TO see the growth in the
services. The Bible school was at its
best. The school is planning TO have
each of the class TO build a room for
themselves. When this is done we
will have one of the best Bible school
buildings in the city. There will be
eight class rooms added, making the
building into a modern bungalow
style. There is a reason for this splen-
did growth in the work. 1t will do
you good to come and see what it IS.
We are sure you will be pleased with
the services. Come and see. Regu-
lar services next Lords day Morn
ing worship will begin at 10 o'clock

Action Was Not RelisIlea.

Both Governor Alexander and Can
didate for Governor D. ". Davis were
speakers at a recent farmers picnic
where a somewhat amusing occurrence
is reported. The governor had had
his say at great length and with
windmill windings of his long arms.
During his address he had taken oc-
casion to severely censure his politi-
cal opponents. When MIR. Davis be-
gan his address, which was to be on
some agricultural subject, he first
craved indulgence of his audience
While he corrected p few misstate-
ments of Alexander. Being corrected
apparently did not set well with his
excellency, and he left his seat and
going to the rear Of the hall, gather
ed a few people about him and began
10 explain his position. 1t created
something of a disturbance, which at
tracted the attention of the chairman
of the meeting, who called his ex-
cellency sharply to order, reminding
him that the gentleman had sat
quietly and attentive while his own
motives were under criticism, and de-
manded that he return to his seat.

New Multiple Check

Efficiency, economy and simplicity
are the aims of hundreds of thousands
of business houses throughout the
country. Gradually and rapidly these
aims are being realized A few years
ago banks encouraged small trades
men, laborers and housewives to tran
sact their business through the banks
by opening a checking account. AT
first it was thought that small check
ing accounts would be more of a nuis-
ance than a profit. The results are
that every bank welcomes small &C
counts. Of course, the small account
of today may be large account five
wears hence and that has something to
do with the welcome. Payment by
bank check was a great step in the
promotion of efficiency, economy and
simplicity. But it takes considerable
work. and some several cents in ex-
ncnse TO write and mail or send Is to
90 checks each month. Hence comes
the multiple ptNHiShe SiieSN "iitNH .'e.
been introduced by eastern banks. The
multiple payment check is simply one
check made payable to the bank for
the total amount of the months bills.
A printed list of the business firms is
appended to the checks with dollars
and cents column for the amounts due
each. The housewife copies from the
statement rendered the amount due
each business house to which she is
indebted; adds up the column and
writes the check for the total amount.
The bank distributes to each business
firm the amount to which it is entitled.
OF course, the idea has been elabor-
ated by some banks until the check
and stub make complete set of books
for an ordinary man. Anything that
makes for economy. accuracy, simpli-
city and efficiency is bound to succeed.
The multiple payment check has great

is not that one which benefits the bank |

WEEKLY NEWS LETTER FROM
BOISE
Resume of Events Around the
State House From Our
Special Correspondent.

The last week has been fairly ac-
tive politically. A few of the ambi-
tious ones have given their ambition
birth, through the medium of filing
their candidates. for some of the sew
eral state offices to be filled in Nov
ember. All of these have been Repub-
licans. During the three weeks to
come it is expected that members of
other parties will make their wishes
known. There still seems a good deal
of doubt whether the Progressives
will make any organized effort to
hold together as state organization.
All indications at present are to the
contrary. There are even indications
that the big Bull Moose of the whole
aggregation, ]. P. Gibson of Canyon
county, may announce his candidacy
for the Republican nomination of sec
rotary of state. Not single Demo-
crat has shown his hand as a candi-
date before the primaries, unless it
can De Sdiu Ihdl nun. j. y. ItlCe, holH-
inee for supreme judge on the
non-partisan ticket can be said to be
a Democrat There has been little
talk the past ten days that Hon. Sam
Hays, present mayor of Boise, might
be induced to become a candidate for
governor. Governor Alexander al
though he has never actually an
nounced his candidacy for a second
term, nor filed as required by law, has
in a number of his recent addresses
broadly insisted that the people will
have an opportunity of putting the
stamp of their approval upon his Of
fetal acts.

Attorney General is Instructed

The land board has instructed the
attorney general to commence suit
for the recovery of S14,O0O-being
the three Huston loans of which there
has been so much discussion. State
Auditor Huston had agreed, some
ting over a month ago, to take up
these loans on July 10, but on that
date announced that he had been I'M
able to do so, and apparently has lit
tie hope of later success in securing
the money. The action of the board,
it is now hoped, will bring matters
to an issue, so that determination
may be reached of whether the state
is likely to lose through these loans.

HERE'S A NEW MELON
The Honey Dew, However, Is In the
the 75-cent Class

A 3-cornered application of Mr.. Bur
banks favorite pastime has produced
the Honey Dew, melon that is now
being introduced to the public by the
Fred Harvey system OF eating houses
on railroads. Mr.. Burbank, however,
has not given his plant training talent
TO the production of the Honey Dew.
1t is tire result of experiments Of
John E. Gauger of Swink, Colo.
Mr.. Gauger raised Rocky Ford mel
ons on his ranch between La Junta
and Rocky Ford. He found no fault
with the variety of delicacy he was
growing, bat he wanted to reform the
African melon, which had fat-sweet,
vanilla taste. So he began blending
the two melons four years ago. His
method was -pollination. The
first results of his experiments were
marketed last year, but they were no.
entirely satisfactory.
The seeds of last years crop were
taken to the Imperial Valley OF Cali
fornia and there cross pollination was
made with the Cassaba melon. The
result this year is melon larger
than the Rocky Ford, with the African
melon and a combined meat-hakiness
of the three, with the smooth, white,
hard shell Of the Cassaba.
The proper way to serve Honey
Dew is smothered in crushed ice, in
slices cut in wedges the length Of the
melon. A sprinkling Of lemon juice
or the addition of salt or pepper adds
to the favor, but the ungarnished
fruit is far from disappointing. Honey
Dew IS in the 75-cent class, making it
toe high, perhaps. to enjoy great pop
ularity this season. The increased
production next year may reduce the
price somewhat.

Carey Act Settlers Interested.

Carey Act settlers to the number
of several thousand are greatly inter
ested in a decision of the supreme
court rendered Saturday. The case
was that of about 90 settlers on the
Oakley-Twin Falls project against
the company. The court was asked
to issue a writ of mandate compelling
the irrigation company TO deliver wa
ter to all its contract holders, VINO
paid maintenance and operation
charges, although they might be long
delinquent on their principal and IN
terest payments. The court ordered
the writ issued. and in its decision
establishes the rule that the water
contracts entered into in this state
between Carey act companies ana
settlers, in which the company is
given the right to shut off water on
account of delinquency in payments
of principal and interest, is in opposi-
ton to public policy and consequently
void. 1t is claimed that this deci-
sion will affect probably several thou
sand entries under the Carey act, and
will operate as against all the Carey
act companies.

Republicans Come Up TO Expectations

Republicans Come Up 10 Expectations
The members of the Republican
state platform convention, which met
at Boise last week, were men Of super
Tor character. They met with the in
terests Of the party and of the state
at heart and courageously performed
their duties. They found condition
Of affairs at the state house of which
they could not approve and they con-
demned the man responsible. They
recognized a system of procedure III
vogue which made the condition posi-
bic and they condemned the system.
The Republicans showed determine
ton to go to the bottom of matters Of
state government and uproot the evils
which have grown during the past
quarter century.
1t is refreshing to see political
party take the action the convention
took. To The Tribune it is most
gratifying that it was the Republican
party which took this action. The
Republican party may hesitate or even
fail at times to perform its clean duty,
but it has the redeeming feature that
it does not hesitate long nor fail in
cessantly. 1t may tarry, but it does
not put up for a long stay-Caldwell
