cAReuRAroR ALRIGHT.

The editor OF the Nampa Record
may have cold feet" but the car
bmator OF his mental machinery
seems to be- working alright. He
says
The plan of advancing prices on
all the necessaries of life has BEL
come serious matter There is no
limit to ayarice and apparently our
laws do not reach the matter. We
have an aggrayating example of in
satiate greed III the rise in the price
,f coal. 1t now sells in Nampa at
$3.50 per ton. a price out of all rea-
son. The salary of every man who
labors for living remains the same
yet his expenses are in many inst,
sqces doubled. Coal in the hills Of
wyoming and Of Utah, costs no more
s'oaded on a car, as far as the own
or of the mine is concerned than it
did year ago, yet the price, right
in the midst Of winter is boosted by
the porkish money grabbers. Such
tactics would in comparison. almost
gloss over the occupation of the high
wayman with a standing OF respects
ability"

CHANCE TO BE CHEEKY.

Anent the much discussed "Cal
Shortage the following editorial ap
peared in the November 18th issue
of the Salt Lake Tribune:
Those who complain of the short
age of railway cars have an excel
ent chance TO be optimists. All that
is necessary is to adopt the CHEEKY
point of view A little reflection will
disclose that there is no reason to
be downcast.
1T is rmdeniable that there are
not sufficient number of cars to
meet all demands, but it is equally
nndeniable that there is more bust
ness in the country than ever be-
fore. There are more railway cars in
existence today than ever, and thous-
ands are being built. There is a
car shortage only in the sense that
all the cars in existence in this
country are insufficient to handle
the freight There must be some de-
lay before the factories can turn
out enough cars to cope with the
situation, but meantime, the bust
ness man, the farmer or the miner
who is inclined to be melancholy
over the car shortage should switch
the electric current of good cheer
and wreathe himself in smiles be-
cause business is so good Forget
the evil of scar shortage and rejoice
in prosperity"
We would be only too glad tol
forget the car shortage" and re-
joice with the Tribune editor in the
presence of such prosperity as makes
it impossible for the railroads tol
handle the business of the country, |
but we must not overlook the fact |
that when a car is loaded with coal
for people who are freezing or with
provisions for people who are starv-
ing. there can be no improvement of
the ''car shortage" situation by drop
ping such cars out on some side
track to remain there for days at
lime If it is lack of motive pow
sr that is hothering the railroad peo-
Die why don't they put it up that
way, so that we may have fair
of the situation?

From the publicity department of
the National Wholesale Liquor Deal
nished a line of argument which
seeks to prove that the consump-
ton of liquor steadily increases" not
withstanding the spread of dry ter-
ritory All we have to say about it
is, that if this is true, the people in
the wet territory are having to
drink altogether too much booze in
order to make any such comparison
possible; therefore we must help the
National Wholesale Liquor Dealers
Association to eliminate this state
of affairs by having nothing but dry
territory.

prohibition will be put to their wit
lends to stave off vote ON the mo
ton to discharge. That motion, likt
any other, can be debated indefi
nitely in the senate; it can be made
the subject of a filibuster, but a
the same time, a motion to dis
charge the committee would force
the fight into the open, and those
who made the fight against favorable
action would do so in full daylight
Whether it is the purpose of Sen
ator Borah to go to this extreme, OF
whether he will confine his efforts
to getting favorable report from
the committee, he does not say;
much will depend upon Developments
And the senator realizes full well
the handicaps under which he must
work during the short session.
To Fight for District.
But while this contest is being
waged in the judiciary committee or
ON the floor of the senate, Senator
Jones of Washington will renew his
fight to get action on the bill propos-
ing to make the District of Colum-
bia dry. 1t is wholly within the prov
dry, or to allow it to remain wet.
The people residing in the District
of Columbia have nothing to say
about the matter, as congress makes
all their laws, and makes many of
them without consulting those most
affected.
At the last session the committee
On District of Columbia reported ia
the Sheppard bill which
seeks to make the district dry, and
that bill is now on the senate calen-
der, having been carried over from
the last session. 1t can therefore be
taken up at any time a majority of
the senate gives its consent, and
because of the advantageous position
Of this measure, it is expected that
the first effective fight will be that
On the bill to make the national CAPT
al dry"
Needs Only Majority.
1t may be that by legislative trick
cry in one house of congress, or in
both, that the prohibition ques ion
nay be shelved during the short ses-
sion, but it will not be shelved until
lfter Senators Jones and Borah have
made the best fight of which they
ire capable, and if sidetracked, it will
'e by indirect, rather than by direct
means. The Jones-Sheppard bill, diff
ering from the resolution for which |
senator Borah intends to fight, can
is sure to pass if it is allowed to |
cine to a vote. But if it passes the |
enate, it must be fought through |
he committee of the house, and |
here, if danger threatens, the oppo-
ition will concentrate it's efforts to
eat the measure

lie schools, and to all others who are
interested in the welfare and prog
ress of our public school system,
we recommend the candidacy of
Mrs. T. F. Kinney as worthy Of all
possible support. Her motherly
sympathies, her varied experience as
teacher and clubwoman with mat
tiers of educational and social impor-
lance, her liberal views on religious
and economic questions, we'll qualify
her for membership in our school
board. We Jews must guard the in

THANKS.

Our hearty thanks are due to the
General Convention of the Episco-
pal Church that has so graciously
ruled that "Jew Episcopalians'
(such was the heading of the report
in the daily papers) may retain, if
they desire, the Jewish national and
racial customs and feasts. 1t is this
matter of retaining our customs and
feasts that has stood these 1900
years between us and the Episcopal
Church. Now that it has been de-
cided in our favor, we can foresee
the urgent necessity in the near fu-
ture of doubling the seating capaci-
ty of all the Episcopal churches of
the country The General Conven-
ton at St. Louis has probably made
ample financial provision for such
contingencies.

Rabbi NJ. P Jacobson of Shreve-
port, La, has resigned from the Cen
trial Conference of American Rabbis,
because of the Conferences endorse
ment at its last convention of the
Gary School System with reference
to religious instruction. The Gary
School System permits the children
CT all denominations, during school
hours, to go to their respective
churches or religious schools for re-
ligious instruction, one hour every
day, if they SO choose. 1t is not
obligatory. The children may, dur
ing that hour, take a music or
dancing lesson, or remain at play.
1t is in our opinion the most harm
less arrangement to create an oppor-
tunity for children to get all the re-
ligious instruction they or their par
ents desire, outside of the public
school. There is no compromising
of the principle of the separation of
church and state involved in that,
any more than in the children's 90
ing to their Sunday schools on Sun
days. We believe that Rabbi Jacob
sons position is untenable.

that all Russian Jewish refugees of
England must either enlist in the
British army, or return to Russia,
where certain death is awaiting
them. These people came to Eng
land as a refuge from persecution
and pogroms. That they would be
called upon to pay for that privilege
with their blood was not dreamt by
them. They may have their serious
scruples against wholesale murder,
called war. But Herbert Samuel,
being himself Jew, must display
his patriotism by demanding such
sacrifice from his fellow Jews. Not
a few of the best minds in England
are now raising their voices in pro-
test against his scheme. Undoubt-
edly many OF the foreign Jews there
have enlisted of their own accord
But to force them to join the army
or else to deport them to Russia
that is another matter.

The most tragic chapter in the

are so easily stirred up against him
even in most enlightened coun-

In the belligerent countries of Eur

to show his fervid patriotism. He
