following excerpt is taken from it:
our system makes its state official
jack of all trades and master of
none The system and not the indl-
vdual, Is at fault. We find legisIa-
lures therefore reluctant to create
new commissions, to entrust their du-
ties to more laymen or add their re-
sponsibilities upon state officials. fear
ing upon the ono side to add to the
burden of ineXperience. or appointing
experts to do expert work, fearing to
face the charge that soft berths are
being made for those whose training
and experience would make their ser
vices valuable to the state.
IF Idaho is to follow in the foot
steps of older states. it will from time
to time add boards and commissions to
the machinery of its government. AS
the state advances the need for such
commissions will become more and
more apparent With their creation
there will be more or less useless
commissions If they are made useless
by the false economy which will place
a layman. because he works for moth
ing, in the place of an expert, because
he expects to be paid in proportion to
the brains needed in the position he is
called to occupy.
What I desire TO point out in this Is
not to criticise but to indicate lack Of
cohesive power. the lack of business
like administration in our attitude to-
ward the big problems which confront
the state. the lack of expert employ
ment by the state of those who should
have full responsibility where exact
information and knowledge are so es-
sential to real saving; we have too
many square pegs in round holes. the
fault being fundamental.

chief that during the day he had con-
sumed about a quart of the preparation
and tried on two occasions to get more
of 1t. but the druggists would not let
him have it, they having been advised
of his condition. 1t was clearly APP
parent that the imbiber had taken just
a little too much to be absolutely GER
tain in his step, yet the officer at first
was somewhat puzzled as to what to do
with him, as a new question had
arisen in the application of the law.
The man in question, with two or three
others who he said were with him in a
certain rooming house here, had con-
sumed quite a quantity before being
apprehended, 1t seems that according
to an opinion given by the prosecuting
attorney this preparation cannot be
sold under the new law. as it contains
the above stated percentages of alcohol
and can be taken as a drink without
serious effects aside from drunkenness.
No doubt, says the chief of police, a
few other similar preparations cannot
be sold by the druggists. II the above
named kind is barred. A case was filed
against Ryan by Chief Parker charg-
ing drunkenness, to which the defend
ant entered a plea of guilty, ana Judge
Hays imposed fine OF sis with costs

Senator Borah Has Big Personal
Following In Eastern Washington

When It comes to personal consider
alton, Senator Borah's admirers are
found In every walk of life throughout
the state of Washington. This is the
tribute paid to Idaho's senior senator
by Clinton Coffin, discussing men of
prominence under the caption, Poll
tics-Who's Who and What's What,
In the Chronicle, Spokane. His article
which will be of interest to the many
friends of Senator Borah in Idaho.
discussed the presidential nomination
and Senator Borah as a possibility. 1t
is in part as follows:
william E. Borah, elected senator
from Idaho in 1906. will be 81 years
old next June. Born in Illinois, he got
a legal education at the University of
Kansas, came west, and most of the
time since has resided at Boise. AS
a lawyer, his most famous case was
tho prosecution of Meyer, Haywood
and Pettibone for the murder OF Gov
ernor Frank Steuenberg of Idaho dur
ing the Occur d. Alene mine war.
Away back in 1903 he received %
votes in the legislature when he was
named for senatorial honors, when 26
were necessary to elect. In 1912, while
a Roosevelt man, he remained in the
Republican party, and. at the especial
request of Colonel Roosevelt, Progress
sives refrained from splitting the party
there, lest 1t endanger Borahs chances
of reelection.
Whenever Senator w. f. Borah OF
Idaho gets ready to be a candidate for
president, his strength In eastern
Washington and Spokane especially
will lie in the many long standing
friendships that he has with individ-
uals in and out of political circles
That readiness is still a matter Of de-
bate. politicians in this territory hav-
ing expressed their belief that geo
graphical conditions would bar him
from consideration always. but some
times Senator Borah himself issues {
sort of cryptic announcement on thu
subject that may have double mean
ing.
The west frankly comedies much t.
the east" he said in speech before
the National Republican league a

stanced here as sidelight on his at

whence are chosen the great leaders of

of the ages expect to be so irreverent
as to challenge that universally ac

western forester, VIC realize that we

Join with the rest of our countrymen
in concluding that it could not in the

Neat Bit of Satire.
The finish the senator has given to
that bit of satire makes 1t a rather
neat retort to the general assertion
that a man from Idaho can never be
president. Theodore Burton of Ohio,
late senator from that state ana now
its "favorite SON. candidate for the Re
