AN APPEAL TO THE PATRI-
OTISM OF PEOPLE OF IDAHO
(Wallace Miner.)

The call of the president upon the
states to send the national guard for
service on the Mexican border and
possibly in Mexico is meeting a re-
spouse that is the highest sense credit
able to the states and to the national
guard. Idaho has quickly answered
the call so far as the regular guard
is concerned, but it is necessary that
large number of recruits be obtain
ed to bring the regiment up to the
maximum war footing, and for that
purpose the governor has aooealed to
the young blood of the state to en-
list. The appeal is just as strong as
it would be if the president had made
q direct call for volunteers. and no
young man physically fit and unmar-
ried should hesitate moment in Of
fering his services. And in this con-
nection who are not subject to mill
tary service. Every employer of men
subject to this call should encourage
them to enlist by assuring them that
their positions will be open to them
upon their return, it matters not how
long their duty calls them. In Arizona
several mining companies have not
only given this assurance to their
employees, but have also given them a
months pay as a further encourage
ment. This is the right spirit that
must show itself if this country is to
give a good account of its soldiers in
time of war.
A blacksmith of Caldwell, Idaho, the
other day gave fine exhibition OF
this spirit which should be emulatcd
throughout the state. His name is
Fred Rowland and may his tribe in
crease. His partner, Bert Black. is a
member of the local company, of the
national guard, and when the call
came for the company to mobilize for
land said to Black:
you must go with the boys. The

MORE ABOUT FREAKISH
SUMMER OF 1916
Snow in June, Ice in July and Frost
in August in East

Last week The Tribune published
an interesting account of the summer
of 1916 which was furnished us by
Mr.. G. D. Stafford, the we'll known
citizen of Notus. The summer oil
1916 is also freakish and has brought
forth a great deal of comment on its
predecessor of hundred years ago.
The Rochester Post-Express of q
recent date comments on the summer
of 1916 as follows:
1T was just century ago that the
most freakish summer in American
history gave the country snow in
June, ice in July, frost in August and
ruined the crops over great areas OF
the Middle and Eastern states.
From all accounts that have come
down to us this year, 1916 was in
credibly trying and many excellen,
people were in CONSERVATION for fear
that the accustomed order of sea-
sons had undergone change. Being
more religious than their descendants
of today, they had no fear that the
promise of Noah concerning the peril
odical recurrence of seed time and
harvest had been abrogated. The seed
time and harvest time had come
around all right, but the seeds had
frozen and the crops had failed and
the outlook was depressing
Since that year without summer
there has been nothing like it in this
part of the world. nor has there in
all the thirty-three years last past
during which the weather bureau has
recorded temperatures been anything
approaching the frigid forlornness OF
that phenomenal year. A century is
not, as far as known, natural or
seasonal cycle at the completion OF
which conditions recur, and there is
no reason therefore to apprehend a
REPETITION this year of anything that
happened then. If this sour weather
should continue through the summer
and crops should be meager or large
ly fail it would be unaccountable, bur
only a happen SO, as far as we can
see, that it came a century after that
other remarkable and depressing year
"Ao--"os of this it might be added
that many people wonder if events in
the Old World may not have some
thing to do with weather conditions
here. All that can be said in answer
to this is that we do not know. But
there is nothing incredible in the no
ton. In fact it would be stranger
if this most abnormal year of which
we have knowledge should not cause
or result from coincide with such
"a arrangement of magnetic condi-
tons as might bring unusual weather
or even seismic disturbances.

How shall we retain fair share of

the question American producers are

CHRISTOPHER WILL Be
HEARD TODAY IN
DISTRICT COURT

A. .. Christopher, county assessor
but not acting in that capacity for
the time being owing to the custer
proceedings that were started against
him, will appear and be heard in the
district court within two weeks. Mr.
Christopher, with his attorney, W.
A. Stone, appeared in court Monday
morning. Before taking UP the hear
ing of the demurrer filed on his be-
half in the suit of c. b. Ross, chair
man of the board of county commits
sioners, which deprived the assessor
of his Office. Mr.. Christopher waived
the statutory time to appear in the
latest action.
Enters Plea July 7
In acting upon the suit filed Sat
urday, Judge Ed l.. Bryan had cited
Christopher to appear on July Il
Upon waving this right he was cited
to enter his plea on Friday July I
On this date it is expected that Judge
Bryan will issue an order for the call
ing Of jury to hear the case at the
earliest possible time.
According to statements of those
interested in the case, the jury will
be called to appear before July Is.
1t will be necessary to call special
venire, the talesmen having been dis
missed at conclusion of the drainage
district litigation a week ago.
Both Mr.. Christopher and his coun-
sci appear eager to have the suit come
to trial.
To Account for Funds
The suit Of the county against the
former official which will thus come
to trial first is that in which he is to
answer the allegation of having CON
verified to his own use," an aggregate
of funds, being of the value of 81, 500
lawful money of the United States of
America, and property and funds of
said Canyon county"
This action. like the earlier one,
seeks the assessors permanent re-
moval from Office. 1t is acknowledged
that the items for which Christopher
is asked to account were not included
in the Van Deusen audit, though the
period covered extends back to the
first Monday in January, 1915.
Demurrer Argued
AS soon as the court had disposed
of matters pertaining to the last suit,
hearing on the demurrer filed in the
action of County Chairman Ross
against Mr.. Christopher was taken up
The demurrer set up the claim that
this information was defective in that
it did not allege that the acts had
been done wilfully and corruptly. and
that many of the items which the as.
SCISSOR was held to have collected from
the county after having paid them
originally with county funds cannon
be classed at fees.
Judge Bryan took his decision un-
der advisement at the conclusion of
the hearing at $50 in the afternoon.

business will be continued and the
receipts will be divided just the same
as if you were at work in the shop"
There is an example of the highest
type of patriotism, displayed without
ostentation, but with a quiet resolve
to meet each new DUTY of citizenship
with unwavering courage and self
sacrifice. Herein lies the real strength
of the nation. The Caldwell blacksmith
has set an example that should be
followed by every citizen in every
walk of life.
But whether it is or not, no un-
married man of military age and ell
igible to the service should permit
his job to stand in the way of his en-
listment. Our country must not de-
pend upon jobless men for its de-
tense. The call for recruits for the
national guard of Idaho is the cali
of our country for defenders. 1t is the
supreme test of patriotism and the
young men of Idaho must not fail to
respond Enlist now.

care Of orphans arose no doubt from
the fact that we were asked by Amer
leans as to about how many war or
phans there were needing assistance.
and we put the number at 10000.
This, OF course. does not comprise all
the war orphans. They were estimated
recently in q debate In the senate by
Senator Jenouvrier at 100000 which Of
course included half orphans, but q
great proportion OF these Will never
become the objects Of charitable work
and the exact number may never he

Committees have been organized in
a great many American cities to re-
ceive propositions OF families, not to
adopt orphans, but to support them in
their own surroundings for period
Of two years. which Is supposed will

carry them to the time when the meas

care Of orphans become effective. All
the people in France connected with
this movement have been deeply

ceived many thousand letters. the

from families who want to enter into
direct c6mmunication with orphans
and start correspondence with them 50
as to follow them until such time as
they need no further help.
THE plan Of the Orphanage OF the
Army is to bring these children up
without making them feel that they
are objects Of charity. without with.
drawing them from their usual envi-
ronment except when that environment
is bad We support them in their own
homes with contributions Of money,
clothing, books. pending the organiza-
ton of official means Of providing for
them. We are aided largely in this
work by pupils Of the public schools.
There are about 10000 different schools
in France. and the children of each
school contribute their sous for the
support Of an orphan. Eventually each
one Of these schools will have ward

ARMY VOCATIONAL TRAINING.
Senate Bill Provides For Schooling, as
in the Navy.

The United States senate has
adopted an amendment to the army
bill providing vocational training with
civilian teachers for the regular SOL
diers Of Uncle Sam. The allowance
Of seventy hours a month for such
work is liberal. That this will increase
the attractions Of the service and
stimulate enlistments is the faith of
the administration. 1t Is not likely
that the house of representatives will
object to the plan.
In this the United States Is taking
a leaf from Germany's book. German
efficiency in mechanical pursuits is in
no small measure due to such voca-
tional training of young men while
serving in the army. II sanely man
aged, the scheme should work out well.
+ Some of the worthiest work done by
Secretary Daniels has been in the
education of our sailors, in making
their conditions more inspiring. in en-
couraging them to see things wherever
they go, and get broader view OF
life.

the nations pride. We do not want
to think Of soldiers or sailors as mere
food for cannon We prefer TO re-
gard them as still American citizens.
