WILL IDAHO STAY DRY?

Is Idaho dry? Yes. Will Idaho
stay dry? That's up to you.
If those who want the state TO be
dry will vote for the amendment on
election day we stay out of the wet
column, otherwise we will go back.
You ask, do we have 10 vote on the
question this fall? l thought ii was
settled?" Yes it is settled that we
will be wet if the drys don't vote for
the proposed amendment. We now
have statutory prohibition, but il this
fall the majority say no to the
amendment we can not expect any
thing else than a repeal of the pre-
sent dry law. The history of the state
shows that but one-third of the peo-
pie vote on proposed amendment;
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1916-10-27

it is estimated that one third of the
people of the state Will vote wet and
the liquor interests will bring in
voters from other states, so we who
are dry will need to get more than
one-third more to carry the day. You
see we have something to do Will
you vote for the amendment on cleo
tion day? viii you talk vote be-
TWEEN now and then to your neighbor?
Both is necessary to insure success.
The vets are talking dry to keep us
so cock sure that we will win so we
will lose interest, not talk the mat
ter up and forget to vote, but they
will, every son and daugher of them
be at the polls and vote wet. So if
you want to keep the saloons out of
Idaho GET BUSY.

Protective Tariff Needed.

No other state in the United States
is more largely the beneficiary of
protective tariff or more dependant
upon one for its progress and de-
velopment than Is our own. We need
protection for agriculture and its
varied products. We need protec-
tion for our lumber, our wool, our
lead, our zinc and numerous other
commodities and under our present
democratic free trade law which
throws the ports of our country open
to the products of European and 9TH
er countries, the market for onr own
products will be wholly destroyed
when the countries now engaged in
war in Europe shall have ceased their
warfare and resumed their industrial
activity. The prosperity of the pre-
sent is unqnestionably the result of
our vast sales of war supplies TO the
warning nations of Europe. It's ar
tificiality must be plain to all, and
when it shall have ended, as il will
end and We are thrown in competi-
ton with these European countries,
there will be repetition of the in
iustrial inactivity and financial de-
preston which has characterized ev-
cry democratic national admiristra-
ton preceding that of President Will
son which is even more pronounced
han any of them in free trade di-
rection. .Prosperityhas not been fea-
ture of democratic administrations
md only through the European war
has President Wilson's administra-
tion been an exception to the rule.

When Mr.. Hughes criticlses the rec
ord Of the Administration the spokes-
men of Mr.. Wilson cry: "What would
you have dons?" They forget that it
H. Mr.. Wilson and not Mr.. Hughes
who is on trial. They forget that
four years ago Mr.. Wilson criticised
Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt through
out the campaign and that Mr.. Taft
and Mr.. Roosevelt defended their re-
Bpective records, instead of crying
.sWhat would you have done?" They
forget these things or they refuse to
CONFESS them. They are trying to run
away from the record of the Adminis-
tration and induce the people to fol-
low them down some by-path of rhe-
torical hypothesis, all in the effort to
change the subject.
aBy their fruits ye shall know
them" When Mr.. Hughes was Gov
ernor of New York he did not pay
political debts by filling the public
Offices with unfit men. He did not
champion certain principles during his
campaign and repudiate them after
he entered Office. AS Governor. he
did not resort TO brave and beautiful
words as substitute for firm and con-
sistent deeds. He was careful in his
use Of words but he backed his words
with deeds. He did not promise what
he could not perform. He did not
plaster the people with compliments
they did not deserve. He was not q
rhetorician. he was not flatterer. he
was not "too proud to fight for labor
or for capital. for the strong or the
weak. when the right was on their
side.
Mr. Wilson's spnkesmen seek to di'
<erf attention from the attacks MT
Hughes is making upon the record OF
the Administration by asking him
"sWhat would you do?" they are un'
consciously helping Mr.. Hughes. They
are recalling to the memory or the
people the record he made throughout
his two terms as Governor of New
York. It was then that he first said
sspubilt Office shall not be a private
snap under my administration" and
made performance square with prom
ise. There is this about Mr.. Hughes
thar makes him so different from Mr.
Wilson: "Hughes means what he
says SO 1t is that the campaign Il
really 4 contest of character between
two men. with sincerity as the differ
entiatinx and deciding factor.

OFFICER FIGURES WHAT
 GAIN COSTS FRANCE
Calculation Made of What War Is Costing in>Human Life

PARIS, Jan. 20-The prolongation of the war has had the effect of complicating remarkably the work of the statistician. The manwho is fond of figuring out what given circumstances will produce in all sorts of occasions began his calcu- lations on the supposition that all
 would be over within a few months. After the few months passed he began to figure on year, and again he had to revise his figures.
 The most intricate problem that he has been working on is what will De the total destruction in value of the men killed and men disabled for Fife. Statisticians working on this problem go back as far as the war of the Crimea in 1861, when Proud hon estimated the value of a mans life at 10000 francs ($4,00O). Since then writers on this subject have for the most part discredited the arbitrary figure and have valued the life Or services of a man accord ing to his producing capacity. Fov- file made the far more moderate es- innate of $500 as the average of the war of 1870.
 Coming down to the present time Yves Guyot considers that mans salary or wages represents no more than half the value of the produc ton to which he contributes, and starting from that basis he figures that during the first six months of the war France had lost $3,000,O00,- GOO through the disappearance and disabling of producing men. On the same basis the loss to date would be $9,0OO,O0OO00, but other writers contest the soundness of the basis on which these figures are produced. If the workman on a salary of $2 day may be consider ed worth from $70O0 to $10,OOO, the engineer who earns $20 a day may be considered worth $1OO,O0O; and if these figures were taken, in view of the heavy losses in officers the total would amount, perhaps, to double the statistician's figures.
 An officer at the front, taking the legal value of human being as fixed by law at $5,000, calculated the cost a square yard of ground reconquered from the enemy in q certain attack at $133,0OO.
 Monsieur Eugene d'Aichthal of the institute and member of the Society of Statisticians of Paris, re- fuses to accept the basis of any of the calculators who have figures on these insults up to the present time. and is of the opinion than in view of the many opportunities for diff ferences of circumstances and faulty bases, no figures worthy of consid- eration will ever be reached.

the Stikine river. Their outfit is waiting for them at Wrangell.-Ju- neau Empire. ALLEGED SIX VICTIMS
 MADE AWAY BY KRAUSE


 The officers have secured infor- mation which leads them to believe that Edward Krause made away with six men. There is also suspic- ion that he may have caused the death of seventh. Evidence has been gathered to show that he was closely associated with the six who are missing, and that all of them save Capt Plunket and Christie had sums of money. For instance, in one case it is claimed that Krause and another party left together on a cruise, the latter having $500 and that he was never seen afterwards.
