If there is anywhere to be found
an American citizen who is ready
to criticise the National Administers
ton for ordering troops into Mexico,
that one should stop long enough to
read the long list of American lives
that have been sacrificed to Mexi-
can anarchy within the past five
years. The complete list is now be-
ing published for the first time and
the number reaches two hundred and
forty-five American men, women and
children, killed in Mexico and on
United States soil in that time. The
bandit Villas recent raid on Column
bus, N. M, when % victims were sho
down in cold blood, as they emerged
from the buildings being burned over
their heads, was the spark that put
an end to q policy of "watchful wait
ing and will ultimately end the
reign Of terror and anarchy in Mex
leo that has too long been endured.
There should no longer be found in
the United States any sentiment
against adequate preparedness for
the protection of American citizens
at home and abroad.

FINANCIAL PLAN
FOR REDUCTION OF TAXES IS
ENDORSED BY STATE TREAS
URER J. v. EAGLESON.
Capital News.)

i ID. w. Davis, of American Falls.
wen known banker and Republican
gubernatorial candidate who first
proposed the plan to make use of
the states resources to increase Ida
nos income and decrease the taxes
of its residents, expressed pleasure
today at the virtual Endorsement of
his plan and the suggestions that
grew out OF 1t as made by State
Treasurer John w. Eagleson in an
article published in the Sunday Capt.
tai News. The state treasurer point
cd out that the state stands to Sc
cure greater earnings On its money
by a materials reduction of interest
rates and long time amortization of
the principal by the proper handling
OF the securities and lands of the
state.
This state has over $2,5OO,0OO in
vested in farm mortgages bearing 6
and per cent interest, about the
same amount invested in school
bonds bearing the same interest, and
about SIS, 100000 in land sale contracts
or, in other words, the state is earn
ing per cent, payable annually, on
SlO,O0O,0OO. The state also has for
sale approximately 5000, 600 acres of
other endowment fund lands, part of
which is covered with merchantable
timber, which all told will give Idaho
1OO,O00,000 to invest in farm loans
and school bonds.
Several years ago Mr.. Davis point
ed out, in a public address, that Ida
no was in position, if it made
proper use of its resources and in
come, to become self-supporting. His
created great deal of dis
cussion at that time. Since then Mr.. |
Davis has enlarged on his plan and
explained it more in detail when
speaking in various parts of the
state. He has received many sugges-
lions regarding it. The statement CIV
en- out by State Treasurer Eagleson
is looked upon by Mr. Davis as a I
suggestion growing out of his origin
al address on the subject, now con-
sidered of vital importance to the
state.

The announcement that nine fami-
lies from southwest Missouri arrived
in Boise last Saturday night, to To-
cate on farms in the Boise valley,
sounds mighty good to us. Because
you know that Missourians have to
be shown" and it is evident that
the Boise valley measured up to thsir
expectations before they decided to
cut loose from the old home associa-
tions to find homes in Idaho. And
this might be good time to inquire
what is being done to let the fact
be known that the Payette Valley
is just as good as the Boise Valley
or any other part of Idaho. 1t Is
true that we are trying to wake up
down here. but we must not spend
too much time stretching before we
get our eyes wide open to the fact
that this is going to be the year of
our great opportunity.

POLISH WHEAT.

Washington, D. C.@The U. S. De
partment of Agriculture recently han
been informed that Polish wheat il
being offered for sale in Montana al
the exorbitant price of $1.0O per
pound Polish wheat is variety
more closely related to the durum
wheats than to the common wheats
The head is to 6 inches long and
one-half to three-quarters of an inch
wide, usually flexible instead OF
stiff. The chaff is very long, and
thin and papery. The kernels are
larger than those OF durum wheat
and about twice as long as those of
ordinary varieties OF common wheat.
Like those of durum wheat, the kerr
nels are flinty and of an amber color.
A few years ago this wheat was
exploited in Idaho under the mis-
leading name Corn Wheat" 1t has
also been exploited at different times
as Jerusalem rye" "Giant rye" etc.
This wheat is grown to slight ex-
tent in southeastern Europe, but
never has been grown commercially
IN the United States. 1t is carried in
stock and sold as a novelty by most
seedsmen. 1t has been tested by
many experiment stations and has
never been found to yield as we'll al
rood varieties of common and durum
wheat. From our present knowledge
t is not recommended for growing
anywhere in the United States.
Those offering the seed claim
hat it does very well on dry land
md also under irrigation If not wat
red too much. They state that Pol.
sh farmers in Montana claim that
his wheat yields from Sc to $50
ushels per acre and makes the very
est OF flour and hog feed.
These statements are directly con-
-ary to the experience Of the De-
artment Of Agriculture and several
tate experiment stations. They are
lso contrary to the experience OF
ANY farmers who have written to

Liquor men no longer contend thai
prohibition does not decrease pro-
duction of stimulants. The Brewers
Review admits that the production of
beer was 5.23S,33S barrels less in
1915 than in 1914, and it was 1884,
1853 barrels less in 1914 than in
1913. There is also beginning to be
noticed a remarkable falling off in
criminal prosecutions and cost bills
throughout prohibition territory that
goes to prove that the decreased &C.
tivities OF the brewer is conducive
of results not witnessed in connec-
ton with depression in any other
line of business About the best
argument that could be advanced IN
favor of the complete obliteration of
the entire booze traffic.

1t looks now as though grain sacks
would be very high priced this year,
and it would be well for every farm
er to save and keep in repair all of
those now on hand. 1t seems that
the Allied armies are using these
sacks. filled with sand, in the in
trenchments and, as England has
requisitioned India for large quanti-
ties, the price of those brought to
this country will be very much ad.

SENATOR BORAH
URGES ACTION
THINKS CRISIS MAY Be NEAR
AND WOULD PUSH PRE-
PAREDNESS PROGRAM.

| Washington-Senator Borah, speak
ing in the senate Monday, gave Presi
dent Wilson's determination to sen6
troops across the border to capturs
outlaws his full Endorsement, but de.
clared it would be the height OF
folly for congress not to press prep
arations for war when no one could
tell what the present military action
might lead to. All Central America,
he said, was apprehensive over the
movement of American troops south
of the Rio Grande no matter what
the motive may be.
DIssENSIoN BREWING.
Sparks of dissension are constant
ly flying from Europe over this
hemisphere" Senator Borah declar-
ed. mo man knows one day what
emergency the country may have to
face the next This defense program
cannot be shaped in a week. 1t may
take months to formulate the plans
for national defense urged by the
president.
Judging from the present condi-
ton of this legislation, one of two
things must be true. Either the presi-
dent is sadly in error as to the re-
quirements of the situation which
confronts us or congress is sadly in
error in it's failure to respond more
quickly to the presidents requests.
UP TO CONGRESS AND WILSON,.
Certainly nothing can be less for
,unate at such time as this as for
congress and the executive to dis
agree over this important issue. I
10 not disapprove of the action the
president has taken in pursuing into
Mexico those who invaded the Unit
I'd States and murdered our citizens.
"Yet no man heeds the conse-
luences which might follow from our
Mexico he said, "even for
he purpose set forth by the presi-
lent The probabilities that may
rise from the fact that We have in
aided Mexico are many. The diff
,ulty is that we have started train
,ver which we cannot exercise con-
rol and we are under a solemn obl1-
,ation to meet any condition that
nay arise.

MEN WHO WROTE PROGRESSIVE
PLATFORM OUT FOR WILSON
New York, Oct. Without
candidate of our own for president,
we are unalterably in favor of the re-
tentiOn in Office of President Wilson,
under whose guidance and leadership
more progressive principles have
been enacted into law than we be-
ieve might have been accomplished
had the progressive party been in
power,
The above Endorsement of Presi-
dent Wilson was contained today in
a statement, signed by eleven of the
nineteen members of the Bull Moose
resolutions committee that drafted
the Progressive platform in Chicago.
Five of the remaining members were
said by Democratic managers to be
in accord with sentiments of the full
statement, but they refrained from
naming a presidential choice. The
statement said in part:
"Of 80 planks in the Progressive
platform of 1912, % have been
wholly or partly enacted into laws.
Of 80 propositions embodied in these
planks, more than half have been
carried out by administrative notes
or bylaws"
Then the statement names some
examples Of such legislation and con-
tinUes:
"This is a great national crisis. We
are ProgressiVes, supporting John M.
Parker Of Louisiana for vice presi-
dent" The statement ends with the
endorsement of Wilson.
The signers are John M. Parker,

bee ONE hist Jric in rhotoplay annals as
one of the most realistic tsuc en-
courters that was ever staged as part
OF dramatic entertainment.
The production Of The Spoilers"
marks a very distinct place in photoplay
history. 1t is said to have been staged
in Alaska in the original settings of the
stor% and was made under the Joint di-
rection of 'he author and OF Mr.
