What Should Be.

(Eik KlVer SentlHti)
A local exchange suggests that sher.
ifs and their deputies be given the en-
forcement of the game laws. They
should-and also of all the other laws
which require vigilance and inspection
Most of the routine work Of the
health board, weights and measures
inspectors, etc. could be done by them
just as we'll as not.
The most sensible plan would be fol-
the state to take all funds now used
for the prevention and detection Of
crime and the enforcement of laws and
use it to form a body of permanent
constabulary, out of politics and not
too attractively paid to become the
arm of the state, county and munich
pal governments everything. The
system is used everywhere else in the
world; why not here?
The same funds would give greater
efficiency and security, cause less COM
plant of favoritism and discrimination
and more rigid and impartial enforce
ment.

ing them a diversion from which there
is no escape On May 10, Governor
Whitman signed the Slater bill pro-
viding for compulsory military train
ing for boys not at work or not ex-
empted for other reasons. says an ex-
change. Aside from few who are
physically unfit, and few with whose
religious beliefs military training con-
ficts, all boys will have to learn to
drill and make themselves acquainted
with the rudiments of modern warfare
The bill is by far the most compre-
hensive preparedness measure which
has achieved a place on the statute
books of the states or the nation.
There is some objection to it on the
ground that the boys are too young
to benefit by the training, but this is
answered by the statement that such
organizations as the Boy Scouts have
shown that even younger boys are ca
pable of attaining high degree Of eff
hciency in training similar to that
which the state is to provide. The
belief is that they like it. Furthermore
it is argued that when boys become a
little older few of them go to school,
and it is maintained that the only
method the state has of reaching them
is through the schools. Other objec-
tons refer to the difficulty of provid-
ing the necessary equipment and in
struction, and these are admittedly
serious, but the state has allowed itself
several months in which to perfect the
organization. And naturally there will
be some experimenting which may re-
suit in a modification of the law.
But the principal remains unaltered
At an age when lasting impressions
are made these boys will have les
SON in preparedness second only in
importance to the lesson in the effect
iveness of organized effort, which is
inseparable from military training
Both features are important, but they
can be made more important by the
cooperation of school executives, and
this is the real problem which the
state faces, and which it may have tc
solve before other states can be in
duced to follow the lead. The educa-
tors naturally fear division of au-
thority, but they can avoid its conse-
quences by allying them selves with
the military instructors and incorpo-
rating the compulsory drill in the
scheme of school life. Otherwise they
are likely to find themselves opposed
by the military auth critics, the boys
and the public, combination which il
would be better to support than tc
oppose and lose, for then the damage
to the school system would be great

Authority on subject Says There is No

Col Jake Horn of Caldwell has
probably dubbed more men Colonel
than any other man in Idaho. Col
Horn holds that the colonel like the
poet is born not made, and that he
who is born to the title will get it
sooner or later whether he serves in
the army, on the governors staff OF
in a real estate office. Men like Col
E. R. Place, Col. Joel l.. Priest. Col
Theodore Roosevelt take to the Col.
onelcy like ducks to water, while AZ
years under arms would never make a
colonel out of Mr.. R. w. Cakes, Judge
]. M. Thompson or DR.. Woodrow
Wilson. That at any rate is the oPin,

Col. Horn discussing colonies and
the efforts that are being made In GER
tain southern states to restrict the title
to those who are Justly entitled to it,
says:
when a man has reached certain
stage of local imp ortance, or certain
mental and physical ponderosity, it has
been the American custom to apply tc
him the honorable title of Colonel
"Some men are born colonies
Their appearance and habits of mind
call for and merit the title. and it is
granted by unanimous consent. The
primary of public opinion hands down
its decision. Colonel will he remain
in office or out, in public favor or in
disgrace. The title runs with the man
There are set of southern colon
els, who are attempting to restrict the
title to those who are Justly entitled tc
it," continued Col. Horn" They mean
by Justly entitled to it those actually
appointed colonies who survived The
civil war, and the SpanishAmericar
war, the colonies active and retired o.

Army, and the colonies Of the govern

speak, who have acquired the title by
popular usage, and have been addressed

The attempt to cast cloud upon the
title should be frowned down.

On the Right Track


The Caldwell Tribune is after the
general government on the charge per
acre for the reclamation of the land
under the -Payette project and it
is on the right tract. Idaho has been
the experimental ground of the rec
lamation service and the proposal to
pass on to the actual settler all the cx-
pense of the errors and miscalculations
of the service would mean bankruptcy
for the individuals and ultimate in
direct loss to the Government. 1t was
given out the time the project was un-
dertaken that the cost would be Us
per acre, but now it is proposed to
burden the land owner with the cost OF
SOS per acre. The Tribune very justly
and very ably uphold the contention
that congress should give relief in the
excess amount.
What the Government is interested
in is the prosperity of the people, the
upbuilding of homes, the reclamation
of lands and happy and contented
citizenry. To pass along to the home
builders as individuals the cost of ex-
periments, of mistakes, mayhaps, OF in,
competency, would be an incompara-
BILE act of injustice.
The press of this section must fol
low the lead of the Tribune and urge
our Congressional delegation to &C
tivity in this matter. 1t is not ques-
ton that can be settled by any narrow
construction of the law. but its settle
ment must be along the broad lines
of jusice and must take into consid-
Grafton. the underlying facts Of the
situation.

Must Nominate Right Kind of Candi-
dates to Win.
/NTol1,oo M;rarN

Idaho is republican state. The fact
that the state is afflicted with demo-
cratic governor does not mean that
there was a shortage of republican
votes to elect republican. 1t simply
means that republican votes helped to
inflict punishment upon their own par
ty for the misdeeds of republican Of
fcers. The wonder is that the punish
ment was limited to the election of a
democratic governor, although it must
be conceded that events have proved
that it was punishment enough. 1t is
now up to the republicans of Idaho to
show that they have profted by the
lesson, and if this is not plainly ap-
parent in the character of men NOM
mated in the primary, they may ex-
pect repetition of the chastisement adj
ministered two years ago. The recent
revelations in the doings of the land
board indicate that some republican
Office holders have not profted by ex-
perience, and that they are still labor
ing under the impression that they are
privileged to use official position for
personal gain. If men of that type
are nominated by the republican party,
or men who have shown themselves
to be in sympathy with such methods,
there is only one thing that VIII save
them from defeat and that is the nomi-
nation of the same character OF men
or worse by the democrats,
The candidates who are now in the
field for nomination for state offices
are generally of high character and
possess the necessary qualifications
for the positions to which they aspire,
and this gives substantial basis to the
belief that clean and capable candi-
dates will be nominated. That is the
kind of candidates the republicans Of
Idaho are seeking, and that is the only
kind that will command their sup
port. From the governor down there
must be no question regarding the
high character and capacity of candi-
dates if they expect TO win the con-
fidence and support of the voters. The
requirements are more exacting than
ever before, and there is reason.
