Sashes and TuIIe Skirts.

One Of the difficulties about the
very full skirts is that they sometimes
look bulky, and are bulky, about the
waist and hips The Paris dressmak-
ers have been trying various expo
dents to overcome this bulkiness ever
since they began to experiment with
the full skirts. With tulle skirt per-
haps the best way is to have a sash,
either a narrow band or a wide, soft
ribbon folded narrow, fastened rather
loosely about the hips. 1t restraints the
excessive fullness, but at the same
time does not form a harsh line

From being in touch with audiences
in such a great territory, the Sena-
tor has found that some Of the orr
ginal campaign keynotes have fallen
by the wayside, and that the issues
that really touch the hearts of the
people are these:
First. A universal desire for the
protection of American lives at sea
and the unfolding Of the national
honor.
Second. The tariff, in which the
interest is keen just where it would
naturally be expected to be apathe-
tic-the Northwest.
Third. The eight-hour law, which
is beginning to receive the calm and
consideration of the
laboring element to the detriment of
President Wilson.
Fourth. The high cost of living
with the realization of the people
that $4,000, 100000 worth of business
for the munitions manufacturers has
cost them $8,000,000,000 in inflated
prices for household necessities.

URGES CAUTION In
CASTING BALLOT
Congressman McCracken Issues Warn
ing in Regard to Amendment.

Congressman Robert Nj. McCrack-
en- issues timely warning regarding
the proposed prohibition amendment
/ to the state constitution which is to
be submitted at the coming general
election to the voters of Idaho. He
points out in an interview that those
| favoring the amendment should use
caution in voting, taking care that
the separate pink ballot which will be
handed to them is voted first and that
after it is voted it is handed to the
election clerk, and deposited in the
ballot box. In view of the fact that
people have neglected to vote on con-
stitutional amendments in the past
the warning of Congressman Nc
Cracker is timely He said:
at goes without saying that bust
ness and moral conditions in Idaho
have been greatly improved since the
statewide prohibition law has become
operative, and there can be no doubt
but that a large majority of the citi-
zens of Idaho now favor amending
the constitution of the state so that
our present statewide prohibition pol
icy may be made permanent. At the
last general election forty-one thous
and voters who participated at the
failed to vote upon the amend
ments then proposed to our state !
Let it not be forgotten |
that at this election, we will be called |
upon to vote on two proposed amend
ments, one of which is the prohibition
These amendments will
appear on pink ballot which will be

HARDING SAYS HUGHES
WILL WIN
Well Known Ohio Senator Claims
Ohio and Indiana Safe to
Republicans.

"Hughes beyond a doubt and flint
prospects for a Republican senate"
This prediction was made last weel
by Senator Warren G. Harding, Of
Ohio.
"a scare was thrown into the Re.
publican party some weeks ago, when
Democratic congress passed the
Adamson socalled eight-hour law" he
said. This will react in our favor. II
has set our men to working, and as a
result we will carry all the doubtful
states. As a campaign issue, the
Adamson law has proved failure"
Particular interest attaches to Sena-
tor Harding's review of the national
campaign. because he voiced the Re-
publican keynotes at the convention
that nominated Hughes, and has been
one Of his party's most stalwart
spellbinders. Besides the preliminary
campaign in Maine, in which he parti-
cipated, he has been speaking steadily
for almost five weeks, covering the
near Northwest in such States as the
Dakotas, Utah and Wyoming; the
Middle West, in Indiana, Ohio and
as far to the south as West Virginia,
and recently, States along the At
lantic seaboard. With regard to his
home State he said:
