The thinkers have been given some
thing to think about. Senator w. d.
Davis, the American Falls banker and
farmer who is candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for governor Of
Idaho, has supplied the new subjects,
and has so forcibly presented his ideas
as to attract the attention of people
without as well as within his own
state. His plan is to capitalize the re
sources of Idaho and make them lift
the tax burden and at the same time

MAYOR LANDS ON PREACHER

As result Of the public statement
Of Rev. w. r. Jewell charging Mayor
Edgington, members of the police force
and city council with drunkenness dur
ing the roundup, the feeling engen-
dered between the administration and
the minister eliminated in the only
logical outcome, in front of the post
office.
On meeting Friday morning, the rev.
erend gentleman acknowledged the
mayor with the customary salutation,
at which the mayors righteous wrath
boiled over and he promptly knocked
Mr.. Jewell down, giving him what he
considered a well-deserved threshing.
The mayor is naturally indignant at
having personalities injected into the
campaign, and took the only course
he deemed proper, with regard to the
totally unfounded charges made by the
Rev. Jewell.-Idaho Falls Post.

ANOTHER RAILROAD
FOR THIS VALLEY

1t is stated on authority which is
considered to be the best and which
certainly is conservative that the
Western Pacific has abandoned the
idea of building the Winnemucca
branch from that point in Nevada to
Boise, and in it's stead will build west
from Wells, Nevada, to Twin Falls
and probably north from this place.
The original plan as discussed three
years ago when this matter was first
brought up was to make Idaho Falls
a terminal point for the time being at
least, and that original plan may be
adhered to.
1t will be remembered that three
years ago engineers representing the
Western Pacific were here and that
several trips from Twin Falls to Idaho
Falls were made by means of automo
biles between the two places, via Amer
lean Falls, and on the west side of the
river from here.
The plans were abandoned at that
time for the reason that the Western

THE DIFFERENCE?

Men say: We arm not for war, but
against war; and think they have said
something. They have said nothing.
You can't change situation by alter
ing a proposition. 1t makes no difference
at all whether you arm for offense or
defense-for war or aginst war. The
effect is precisely the same, and the
budgets are the same. England armed
for defense, and Germany did the same,
and they met at last on the field of
blood. They did not want to fight.
Every Englishman Of note has said
that within the last ten years. Every
German in official position has said
that Germany desired only the friend
ship of England. The Kaiser said it,
and Marschall Won Bieberstein and
Prince Lichnowsky and Herr Won Jagow
and all the rest Of them. You may
say they were lying. cannot go with
you. I believe they were all honest
men, and spoke the truth. The best
men in Britain and Germany had nc
desire to fight. Those two great EN-
pires were driven to war by their guns

SHOULD
FORGET DIFFERENCES

OF course some little i'll feeling was
cngendered at the primary election. No
contest occurs without leaving feel
ing Of bitterness in spots. Now that
the candidates have been nominated
the Republicans of the county and state
should forget their little differel ces.
The differences at the primary elect.
ion were only differences Of Judgment.
All the candidates were Republicans
and we were all striving for the 81 anne
ends-the ultimate success of the Re-
publican ticket.
The conditions in the state are most
favorable for Republican success. The
Alexander administration must be de-
Tended throughout the campaign, and
the governor is vulnerable at hui nd
red points. His ill-advised and n ck-
less promises made two years ago were
not fulfilled. The people today now
Mr.. Alexander and they will not be
fooled again. The entire state ticket
will go Through without trouble
In the nation the outlook is lust as
bright Mr. Hughes is making won
derful campaign. Already assisting
him are former Presidents Roosevelt
and Taft and the great Republican
and Progressive leaders of four years
ago. Nationally the Republican party
is reunited and in position to win
out all along the line. The last battle
cry Of the administration has dwindled
to the SWIVEL, Gle kept us out of war;
When, where and how President Will
son kept us out of war is not given.
He certainly did not keep us out of
war with Mexico and we never had a
chance Of getting into war elsewhere
The great compromise Mr.. Wilson made
when he again proved himself ''too
proud to fight has hown the president
to be little more than politician, and
the reaction has already set in. The
failure of the economic policies of the
administration are known of all men
and are best illustrated by the present
''war taxes notwithstanding the fact
that che kept us out ., war;
Locally everything looks favorable
for Republican success. The county
is normally Republican and will be
found in line in November with al
old time Republican majority.
