THIS TRUST rLEEClNG FARMERS

The sisal fiber trust is causing the farmers of the country no little worry. It is nearly inccmprehensible that tae laws of faraway 'YucataM can affect the pockets of all farmers i'll America, but such seems to be tn } case, for the trust, was. crsated under Yucatan law and is known as the committee to regulate the sisal fib:r market. The mainS regulating that it has done has been. to increase tie price of an article that is grown exclusively in Yucatan.
 AS usual, leading American bankers have not been slow to em- lark in the enterprise by loaning the Yucatan regulators" money. The bankers evidently thought American farmers were buying too many auto mobiles and believed they should be punished fer their extravaganza.
 American bankers of New Orleans New York, Chicago and St. Louis  leaned the trust large sums on q "commission" basis, which, bereft Oi tt tchnicalities, means that the bankers are to divide the increased income with the trust.
 Every time the trust increases tho price of twine enc cent it nets tue trust $2,500,0O0 additional profits. The price at this writing is three cents higher than the trust originally thought the price essential to the maintenance of fat profits. In other words, the price is three cents highes than the trust at first figured to b: ali that the traffic c9ud bear.
 The matter has beNn brought tc tie attention of congress and the farmers of the nation demand action

LESS TYPHOID IN TIE COUNTRY.

In the last fiscal year the federal health service visited 16,369 rural homes in eight different states. In- formation as to the prevalence of disease and insanitary conditions was obtained and complete sanitary sur veys of the premises conducted.
 This may read like a dry para graph from a dry health report, but listen. These visits reduced the typhoid fever rate to cne half, some times more. In other words, Uncle Sam went to the lair of the typhus gs rm and conquered it. for the visits were only made to districts where there were epidsmics of typhoid fever.
 Here are several instances: IT Berkeley county. West Virginia, tht cases of typhoid fever were reduced flom 249 to 40 in one year. In Orang, county. North Carolina, the case' were reduced from 59 to 1T.
 Operaticns in rural sanitation pi6ye that .advanss sment .in maintain ing \hygienics and. satisfactory sYsu, rcundings in country districts is pos sible by the application of the com mon principles of preventive medi cine.

SUBMARINE LINER PAYS IT'S
COST ON THE FIRST TRIP

It has been announced from Ber-
lin that the freight returns from
the first trip of the sub-sea mer-
chairman, Deutschland, amount to
the cost of its construction, and so
it is natural to expect that others
will be built and sent across the
water to America. Much satisfaction
is evidenced in Germany over the
recognition by American press and
officials of the merchant standing OF
the Deutschland. This one incident
probably did ore to prove the sim
certify of the United States in its
neutral stand than much talk could
do.
The author of the above announce
ment also intimates that the big sub
marine was built within a space OF
six months and that the building
company is swamped with requests to
carry freight of all kinds. One ex-
porter wants. to send over $4,000
casks of beer. Altho many desire to
send letters it is thought that postal
service will not be undertaken by the
under-sea f%reighters.

EXAMINER PAYS HIGH
TRIBUTE TO EAGLESON
State Treasurer Told i'm Letter That
Affairs of Office Are i'm
Excellent Shape

R. e. Pinney, auditor and adjuster
for the Fidelity & Deposit company
of Maryland, after going over the
books in the office of State Treasurer
Eagleson has written the local man
a letter in which he compliments him
and the state for the excellent con-
'dition of affairs existing in the office.
The letter follows:
1T is not customary for an exam
liner for a surety company to furnish
information to anyone other than his
company as to the condition existing
in the offices he has examined, but I
cannot refrain from expressing to you
my qualification because of the splen-
did condition in which / found every
thing in your office.
TOO much credit cannot be given
you for having brought about such
an excellent condition of affairs, and
/ think the state of Idaho is to be
congratulated on having such a COM
petent and efficient state treasurer.
my duties take me into the offices
of the %treasurers of Washington and
Oregon and both these offices are
conducted on a very high plane.
Washington being directly under the
bureau Of ~accountancy, a very high
geared organization, but neither of
these states can boast of an office
conducted better than yours.
Il certainly wish you the greatest
success in all your undertakings"

THE COUNTRY PUBLIC
DEMANDING ROAD RULES

Complaints against fast and care
less automobile driving are so in
'creasing in number, coming from the
more conservative element of citi-
zenry and consequently a powerful
element, that before long some leg
islation is likely to result. The use
of DINNERS on the glazing front
lights is also coming to be insisted
upon in the best regulated communi-
ties. Many thoughtful folks feel that
no especial privileges go with speed
and somewhat in line with the follow
ing sample letter, they are asking for
protection:
To the Editor of The Idaho Repub-
lican, Dear Sir:
Il wonder why the road-hog is per-
mitted to travel on the public high
way? l wonder why the road-hog
is permitted to travel in an automo-
bile? I ask these questions for the
reason that a few Sundays ago as I
was going home from church heard
an auto coming behind me, and I
kept very closely to the side of the
road, but as the machine passed me
the driver proved to be the road-hog
in every respect. He tried to crowd
me clear out O fthe road, coming so
close that his machine grazed my
buggy wheel, when he had 80 feet
of level road to pass me on. A few
days later as ! was going to Black
foot I met another road-hog. He
crowded me to the fence when l was
ON my right side of the road.
What | want to know Is this: Is
there a law to protect women from
the road-hog? Or will the travelling
have to carry firearms and
shoot up the tires of the offenders?
Another question: Is there-or
could there be-a law to prohibit
such bright auto lights? They are
indeed dangerous to all.

INVESTIGATION OF THE
HIGH PRICE OF PAPER
Federal Trade Commission Making
Inquiry Among Publishers
and Manufacturers

AS a result of the resolution which
recently passed in the United States
senate the Federal Trade commission
has commenced an inquiry into the
cost of paper production and the
profits made by manufacturers and
jobbers. A large number of news
paper publishers have given infor-
nation to the commission and also
a number of representatives of paper
makers. The greatly increased cost
of print paper with an attendant out
cry from publishers caused the senate
to take this action.
A staff of trained accountants are
busy over the books of the news print
manufacturers. Special agents have
been sent out among the iobbers to
get similar information before the
federal commission will begin on the
morning of August l, 1915, and all
newspaper publishers are invited to
attend in person or send letters OF
information. 1t will soon come out
whether or not the war is responsible
for the high cost of publishing.

WHISPERS, REPUBLI-
CANS AND VICTORY

A growth of hair on the face has
always been held to be a sign of SUI
perior strength, for the reason, no
doubt, that it distinguishes the
stronger sex. Nobody ever has hint
ed that a man incapable Of hair
growth on his face would be- a man
fit to trust in an emergency of any
kind. He might hide such evidence
of his masculinity with the aid Of a
razor, but If offering himself for the
discharge of any important trust he
had best to give a guarantee of manly
qualifications by letting nature speak
in his face, with such modification as
his taste may suggest. The Repub-
lican party, as least, has almost uni
formly selected, for it's presidential
candidates, men willing to offer their
country this pledge.
Whiskers, if we include mustaches
in the meaning Of that generic word,
have waved in every Republican adj
ministration but one. The party be-
lgan running to whiskers before it got
into the White House. It's first can
didate, Fremont, was a bewhiskered
soldier. Its second candidate and
first president, Lincoln, could not
have won the hearts of the Illinois
pioneers with a smooth face. Nearly
10000 more Illinoisans preferred
him before the smooth-shaven Doug
las in the senatorial race of 1858.
ANDREW Johnson, who succeeded Lin
coin in the presidency, but not by
Republican choice for that office,
made an interregnum in a whisker-
ed history, but after him came flow
ing tides of hair on the face. Grants
|whiskers were famous, but less luxu-
|riant than those of Hayes, coming
after him, and the whiskers of Hayes
were overshadowed by those Of Gar
field. But for luxuriance, waving
ness, and mobility of expression, the
whiskers of Arthur transcribed all
others. True to it's traditions, the
party nominated the whiskered
Blaine to succeed Arthur and eve
his defeat, the first party defeat in
nearly a generation, did not shake
Republican faith in facial integn-
|ments, a faith that was justified
when, four years later, it nominated
and elected Harrison.
It's only smooth-faced candidate in
Gu years has been Mckinley. In re-
nominating him it nominated the
lmustached Roosevelt for second
place, and, after electing Roosevelt
to first place, it nominated Taft, with
a well-thatched upper lip. This year
lit again runs true to form in the nom
ination of Hughes. The party is
playing to the line of its long u
of luck, with men whose faces car
Tried pledges. The whiskers of
Hughes rank with the best in the
long Republican presidential line.
And this. time the Republican whisker
is not called to face a Democratic
one, but a candidate whose face is
as void of vegetation as the noun
.tains of the moon. In hoo signo
