NO-PARTISAMS

The plan of the No part people, by
which they expect to divide the Offices
between the republicans and democrats
ought to be satisfactory to the democrats
and perhaps explains the action of some
local democratic leaders. Normally, the
state and county are republican, hence
the democrats could naturally expect no
offices, but if the No party movement can
get enough republican votes. then the
democratic.n partisan candidates are
sure to be elected.
It is the pie.counter which will wreck
the Non-partisan party. Pastry isn't
good for the health of political parties.
When SO many democrats and so many
republicans meet at Fargo to- o-morrow at
the No-party convention and attempt to
nominate state ticket, the cleavage of
the two real parties will be certain to
show up. Probably the democrats will
be willing to permit the republicans to
name tho candidate for governor, pro-
v,ded the republicans will endorse John
Burke for senator. The No.party people
are in the position of the man who is
standing on tho backs Of two horses, but

The elephant and the donkey won't make

PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

The Germans are still pounding away
at Verdun, but apparently not so con.
tinuously as at first. They still make
infantry assaults and make some gains
on which both sides are losers. The
fight has now lasted forty days.
Submarine warfare is being continued
briskly and many ships have been sunk
some as claimed by survivors. without
warning. An English cross channel
steamer, the Sussex" carrying some 400
passengers was victim few days ago
of whom about 100 were drowned some
being Americans. This of course brings
the submarine question to the surface
again. Norwegian, Swedish and Hol.
land ships are sunk in almost equal
numbers to those of the English.
The Russains seem to be making
strong efforts with some success to drive
the Germans back out of Russia. Heavy
fighting is reported all along from the
Riga region $40 miles southward.

POLITICS

The political disturbance in Boise,
during the past week, in managing
the affairs of the Second Idaho reg
iment has again caused the state at
large, including Boise, to blush
with shame. This pernicious politi-
cal activity in the state house should
be settled at the coming election
for all time to come.
The facts simply stated are these
The Governor appointed P. H. Grow
Lieutenant Colonel. Several others
in the regiment wanted it. Attorney
General, Peterson got busy and pre-.
pared writ of prohibition which
after issued by the Supreme Court
prevented Captain CARRIER from
Mastering in Colonel Crow. The

writ of prohibition was issued by
the Supreme Court with Justice
Morgan dissenting. Mote the
political significance of the deci-
sion.
The Federal authorities wired in
structions to go ahead with the
work of mastering in of the regi-
ment, pay no attention to the writ
and to resist arrest if necessary.
The Governor is commander-in-chief
of the national guards until mus
tered into the federal service. His
appointive power should be unques-
toned. Wherein lies the politics
in this case is hard to determine.
We only know that it is the Cover
nor on one side and the combined
state house officials on the other
and thus it has always been. The
rotten land board, thank fortune
has been for the time being forgotten
since this latest stencil has taker
complete possession Of the olfactor'
les Of the general public.

THE OTHER SIDE

The supposition is that Burton L.
French was correctly reported in
the TRADE he delivered on the Will
son administration at Occur d. Alene
recently. If so he will have to fall
back upon his ''ten years in Con-
gress" in prosecuting his candidacy
for the nomination Of national Rep
resentative. He surely would not
face the people on such sophomor-
ic declaration Of principles as is
found in this widely circulated ad-
dress.
He declares that Republicans and
Progressives "are united on a plat
form that will mean peace and
prosperity for our people and honor
and dignity for our nation" All
this we are now enjoying to the
full. Even with Hughes as presi-
dent and Teddy as Secretary of
State conditions could not be improv-
ed.
He talks glibly Of preparedness
and tells us what would not have
happened along the M exican Dor.
der "if we had had an army of two
hundred or two hundred and fifty
thousand men and had had even one
third that number along the Mexi
can border" What did Mr.. French
do in his "ten years in Congress-
to secure this army? What was
President Wilson's inheritance il
that direction? These are natter
that need explanation.

HASN'T SWUNG BACK

1t has been a common saying in
the last few years that the political
pendulum was swinging far back
from the high point Of progress
ivism and that a period of strong
reactionism had set in. People
were supposed to be tired of re.
forms. Now they were going tc
let things alone, permit the strong
to grab all they could and expect
some of the prosperity to filter
through to the rest of the popula.
ton.
The theory hasn't worked out
The Republican convention at Chi
cago, controlled by standpatters
adopted a Roosevelt platform
The Democratic convention at St
Louis went strong for social justic,
and even applauded a child labor
plank. The men with their ears t,
the ground decided that the coun
try wouldn't stand for avowed re
action.
The victory has rested, even il
apparent defeat, with progressivisn
and with the dominant personalit.

Certified Potato Seed

.SCI llllCu i OldlO 0CCu
The potato growers of Idaho are
to receive direct benefit in the new
plan of potato-seed-plant inspection
and certifcation, which is being put
into motion by the Agricultural Ex-
tension Division of the University
of Idaho.
The total of 1O4 separate owners
and growers have undertaken the
growing of special seed plats. The
very finest seed, as true to type and
as free from disease as possible, has
been selected and treated by dipping
in corrosive sublimate. This seed
has been planted in the richest, best
drained, and most disease-free por-
ton of the farm. The average size
per seed plat on each farm is from
one to two acres. These seed plats
are now being cultivated and irri-
gated with special care.
Some of the growers have seed
plats of more than one variety each
in separate tracts, SO that the 1O4
growers have 142 seed plats under
way with a total acreage of about
1876 acres. The seed plats are dis
tributed throughout the leading po-
tato-growing districts including the
Twin Falls, North Side and Minido-
ka Tracts the Upper Snake River
District including Blackfoot, Idaho
Falls St. Anthony, Deer Flat Dis
trict in Canyon County, Franklin
, county, and others. In all II count
, les are participating.
The seed plats are being grown I'M
der the direct supervision of the
state agricultural officials. The
Agricultural Extension Division of
the University of Idaho has organ
! lied the work and the Extension
Horticulturists has already visited
) and inspected nearly all of the seed

PRESIDENT WILSON

Il
It might be as well to state it
now as at any other time that, to
the extent of its influence, the Gaz-
cite will work for the reelection OF
President Wilson. This stand is not
taken in harmony with so many
other independent papers but as the
result of carefully formed judge
ment. The country is in the midst
of most prosperous era. We have
been kept out of war through the
most exacting diplomacy. The fore
sight of President Wilson has prov
ed to be far better than the hind
sight Of his critics. II. would be
extreme folly to surrender the af-
fairs of government at this time to
party which is strongly backed,
if not directed, by the belligerent
Roosevelt.
AS an index to the financial con-
dition of our country at this time,
we quote from Financial Letter"
issued June "a, 1916 by the Amer
lean National Bank at San Francis
SO:
Now that the uncertainty which
existed as to the nominees Of the
Republican and Democratic Conven-
tions has been dispelled, the count
ry is ready to settle down to the
daily grind and let the spell-binders
do their worst for the next four
months. The people as whole are
too busy to give politics much
thought these days, and if business
keeps going as strong until Novem-
Der the usual prediction furore will
be sadly lacking. Industrially speak
ing, there is little cause for COM
plant in all this broad land, and
expert forecasters agree that no
serious reverses are probable before
the end of the European war. It
is true there is a slight slackening
up in some industries that have
been working on twenty-four hour
schedules for months, and certain
inevitable adjustments in lines that
were over-bought through fear OF
under-supply have occurred, but
these small setbacks are along the
lines of safety and common-senst
and relief pressure in quarters where
needed"
The reader will notice in the a
bove this statement; that no seri
GUS reverses are probable before tn
end of the European war;" Tha'
there will come up perplexing quest
ions at the close of the war, no on
doubts. 1t will then be necessar,
to have man on guard who is bot
fearless and able and whose fou
years experience will enable thi
country to come through a mos
trying ordeal with credit.
When Lincoln became canidat
for second term in the midst o
the most trying times in the histor
of this country, he sagely remarke
that it was unwise to swap horse
while crossing stream, and this
doubly true when the horse you ar
riding is one that is bravely breast
ing the current and gives every az
surance that he will carry you safe
ly across. Such a condition cor
fronts US at the present time
These are few of the many reason
why the Gazette stands for the RI
election of President Wilson.

NIGHTINGALEs ON FIRING LINE
Will Irwin Hears the Sweet Song Of
the Bird Blending With Sound
of Guns.

We were Quartered on an artillery
officer, on the Isonzo front. Outside, 1t
was a spring night of the poets. The
moon had come up like great drop OF
honey. No gun was firing, for once.
'They sometimes shell position up
yonder," said the artillery officer as we
walked along. II only hope shan't
be wakened by whir-boom T.
We were silent for a while after
that; and suddenly, in thicket on the
right, a bird song burst out-a song
so lusty, so wonderfully sweet, that 1
stopped in my tracks.
Nightingale" said our lieutenant.
Much as I had read concerning the
singer of the dewy meads, had never
heard him before-he, the bird OF
poets and lovers. He sang ike our.
,wn meadow larks of California, but
higher, sweeter and infinitely stronger.
We had walked on and on, hundreds OF
yards, before / stopped again. I could
still hear him plainly and another one,
far down the glen, was answering.
woke twice that night and listened
for the sound of guns. There they
were, only very far away. But the
nightingale was singing still, near and
loud.-Will Irwin, in Saturday Eve

Clock for Crown Prince.

Attesting their loyalty to the land
of their nativity and as an expression
of good will towards the royal FAM
lily, Japanese residents of Washing
ton, Montana and Alaska have had
made bronze and, onyx clock as a.
gift for the crown prince of Japan.
Before the gift can be officially ten
dered. however, permission must be
obtained from the royal household.
The clock is feet high and Il
by II inches at the base. Surmount-
ing the entire clock is a globe with
a bronze and silver meridian ring
encircling the earth at the equator.
On separate limb is highly polished
bronze ball representing the sun in
it's relation to the earth at the various
times Of day.
