San Antonio, Tex.-A number of
officers of the Wisconsin National

at present are that many of the OFF,

Under the recent army bill all Sec
0nd leutenants in the regular service
were made first lieutenants and the re-
suit was that the entire regular army
is at the present time without second
lieutenants. officers figure that it is
a great chance to be drafted into the
entire service and especially among
the younger officers that matter of
transferring is being seriously con-
sidered. Second lieutenant's pay is
$40 a month.

whether or not an examination will be

from Washington that no examination

The Idaho potato sections, and par
ticularly the potato belt of the Boise
Valley, is the finest potato section in
the country in the opinion of Mr.
Smith. The soil and climate seem
peculiarly adapted to the culture of
potatoes. Mr. Smith thinks that our
potatoes are entirely too good to be
eaten. They should be utilized as

followed. Later, each guest was given
card upon which she wrote an
ade to the bride-elect, after which
they were gathered up and presented
to her, to read aloud.
Another feature was the gayly
decorated table at the back of the

MISS REDFIELD'S CANDIDACY
ASSURED OF SUCCESS
(Lewiston Tribune.)


Reports from over the state relative
to the candidacy of Miss Ethel Red
field for state superintendent of pub
lie instruction are of gratifying ma
ture to her many friends regardless
of political affiliations. Miss Redfield
has made dignified campaign
throughout and as result unfair
criticisms that were made early in
the campaign have reacted to her ad-
vantage. There now seems little
doubt that she will receive the nom
nation by large majority in the pri-
maries and by a similar large vote
be elected in November, this assuring
that the state for another three years
will have the benefits of an able SUI
pervision of the public schools such
as has prevailed during the incum-
bency of Miss Bernice Mccoy. Miss
Mccoy during her public service
clearly showed that it was possible
to keep the office of state superin-
tendent out of politics, her marked
independence in that regard being
reflected to great advantage
throughout the entire school system.
Miss Redfield is the same type OF
woman and although a staunch Re-
publican has as many loyal friends
among the Democrats and Progress
sives as applies to her own party. In
her school career, which has been
one of marked success and which cam
unhesitatingly be endorsed as fitting
her for the responsibilities of state
school superintendent, she has FOL
lowed the ideal of giving to her work
her best thought and fullest energy
with no time available for petty in
fluences that too frequently injure the
schools. This policy has required
patience, but the wisdom of it Is re-
Elected in the standard of the schools
under her supervision. In the pres
ent campaign Miss Redfield at the
time of her announcement of candi-
dacy was the recipient of highly
complimentary testimonial from Miss
Mccoy, states superintendent, and
later when other candidates devel-
oped Miss Mccoy was subjected to
unfair criticism on the ground that
her action would infer she was at
tempting to dictate who hsr sue
cessor should be. Those who know
Miss Mccoy realized that had no such
purpose but instead was governed
solely by the idea of aiding the edu-
cational work of the state by endors-
ing one whom she positively knew to
be competent and who was deserv-
ing as well from every other stand
point The propaganda of criticism,
however, continued with the result
that the reaction has now developed
by people generally throughout the
state realizing that the opposition
hoped to succeed only through this
method and not by any just criticism
against Miss Redfield. The latter's
friends in all sections of the state
are now rallying to her support with
a result that reports. as stated above,
seem to deave no doubt OF her success.
