THE CHILD IS THE GLORY
AND GROWN OF THE FAMILY.
(Spokesman Review


Purists object to kid as a syno-
nym for "child," but no man who
has ever seen the capers and win,
some ways of the four-footed kid
shares the objection. The term IL az
expressive of endearment and de-
light as calling the child chick"
or Kitten" or birdie" All hail to
the human kid"
1t Is a magician in its effect upon
husband and wife, 1t makes the hard
or selfish husband tender and un-
selfish father. 1t opens undreamed OF
founts OF love In the mother. Pater-
familias slaves cheerfully at daily
drudgery for the sake of the kid
and It's happiness and welfare. Mater
familias recks nothing of the toils0me
days and broken nights owed to the
BARN. Purpose takes the place OF
family purposelessness, aspiration and
selfless undertakings of individual In
terests or self-centered doings. The
little hostage to fortune binds the
man and woman to good behavior in
behalf OF its future
"A little child shall lead them, was
said OF the Lion ano tbs bear, but 1t
has wider and sweeter sweep. The
little child leads the loyal parent
into larger and better life The some
times selfish love of one for one, the
fiery passion that makes man and

Now that President Wilson has de-
cided to talk with the people face
to face about National preparedness,
1t Is pretty safe to make the predic-
tion that he will be convinced that
he didn't begin to get right on the
subject any too soon himself. The
country is for adequate preparation.
What the people want to know Is
just what is needed and just how
the money is going to be raised to
pay the bills. And first of all. 1t
might be good idea for the presi-
dent to put some kind of eilencer
upon the mouths of the leaders OF
his party, some of whom are preach
ing against preparedness from a
moral standpoint while others are
sandbagging the proposition with
their declarations that our navy Is
already practically invincible. The
trouble with the Democratic adminis-
tration appears to be too many ex-
perts with different Ideas.

THE j. S. TREASURY
FACES BIG DEFICIT
DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION
HAS FAILED TO MAKE GOOD
UNDERWOOD TARIFF LAW
DOESN'T meet RE-
QU|REMENTS.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 25.-An-
other day of reckoning.
The United States Treasury faces
deficit Of over 100000, OoO The
party responsible for that deficit
lust either meet the situation Oh
surrender the reins OF power
In other words, the American peo-
pie demand that political party
either make good or give up
The handwriting on the wall was
revealed recently by Representative
Joseph w. Fordney of Michigan In
a discussion of the Democratic tariff
and revenue policies before the
House. He showed that the Demo
cratic party has failed to make
good.
1.-THE Treasury balance is nearly
500 900 900 less than 1t was when
the Republicans were in power"
said Mr.. Fordney. 'AThe war in
Europe is the Excuse, but it is
not the Cause for the deficit. With
out that war the Democratic party
would have been compelled to ad-
init ere this that their tariff law
Is complete failure.
Comparing nine months from
March to November. 1915. with the
corresponding nine months from
March to November, 1918, imports
showed a gain of $72.716.00o Gus
toms receipts showed a loss of $751;
900. 900. The maximum loss of Gus
toms receipts that can be attributed
to the war In Europe Is 5000
per month, and the war tax, so-called
Is producing $6.s00,OOO per month,
or about $1,300,00O per month more
than the loss in customs receipts.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
war tax Is more than making up for
the loss in customs receipts, the bal
ance in the general fund declined
SIS, 500, 1856 from July 81. 1914, to
July 81, 1915. On July 81, 1914, the
balance was $14s.77e.sOO and one
year later II, was down to 1858, 173, 900.
"The Underwood law started out
with good balance in the Treasury.
That is not an argument In favor OF
the Underwood law. Credit for that
balance belongs to the, preceding
Republican tariff law. The real
question is. what balance will you
have at the end OF the operation OF
the Underwood law?
up to the present time some
$85, 100000 has been raised by the
so-called war taxes, and notwithstand-
ing this and the fact that importa-
lions at present are breaking past
records in volume, the balance in the
general fund is now down to about
$50, 100000.
when the Underwood act is final
ly repealed and the reckoning IS
made, 1t will show some hundreds
of millions raised by Objectionable
methods of taxation-and an empty
treasury"

The people of Idaho received with
feelings Of joy the news that Senator
James H. Brady had sufficiently re-
covered from his serious illness to be
able to attend session of the United
States Senate and take the oath of
office, before being taken away to
Florida. where 1t is sincerely hoped
he may soon regain his former robust
health. Senator Brady has been a
hard worker and consistent advo-
cate of what he conceived to be the
best interests of the people from the
day that he became the Junior Unit
ed States Senator from Idaho His
broad knowledge of business affairs
has made 1t possible for him to rem
der a service that cannot be lightly

RESERVE FUND.
With the settlement of this year,

brought the interest due on two
years, the first years interest on the
1915 issue and the second years In

arrival of January 1, 1917, our first
issue OF these notes fall due, to
gether with the last years interest on
same. Many of our growers are still
holding their interest coupons fol-

The past season saw very great
amount of the Reserve Fund tied up
in Debit balance; but with the final
settlement of this seasons business
the major portion of those funds will
be available for the financing Of the
1915 season thus relieving the Assocf

OCEANS NO LONGER PROTECT US

| The present European war mas
demonstrated that the open sea ls
the best medium for the movement
of large bodies of troops. At Galhpoli
1875 900 men were landed, fully equip
ped for battle, In one single expedi-
ton of ninety-eight ships, which
faced submarines, mines and barbed
wire under water ringing every
available landing place. So two
oceans no longer are a guarantee OF
safety for the United States.
This all brings us to the realiza-
| tion that American citizens must do
their duty in. time of peril. Major
General Leonard Wood, whose faith
Ifr:f and valuable service performed in
the field for his country entitled him
to talk, told the senate military COM
mittee in Washington yesterday that
the coast line of the United States
Is open to attack by any well organ
lied foreign army And further he
said that 100000 men could inflfct
incaleulable damage before any army
could be assembled here under our
present condition.
ANY policy of adequate national
defense must be that with suffrage
goes an obligation for military ser
vice" declared General Wood.-Salt

 General Joffre listens to his officers with a rather detached air; he even has the appearance of paying no at tention to what is being said; then suddenly will surprise his staff by in terruping the reader of the report or letter and reaching out for IL. When- ever a phrase or a word strikes him, he insists upon reading for himself; he also follows for himself, pencil in hand reports concerning military op- erations and movements of troops, and seeks out for himself even the most insignificant points named in the despatches. With the same care he reads every telegram, every order, be- fore signing it.

Barcelona, Spain, met for the first
time in New York week ago. Their
marriage was solemnized in Spain
through a brother of Villa, who serv-
ed as his proxy.
Villa lives with A. Casals, uncle of
Mrs. Villa. About two years ago Ca
sails began "joshing" Villa about be-
ing unmarried and mentioned that he
had a pretty niece in Spain. Villa be-
came interested and Casas introduced
the two by mail. The distance be-
tween Barcelona and st. Louis is
more than 1900 miles.
They exchanged photographs, and
after a correspondence of almost a.
year and a half became engaged six
months ago.
