AFTER THE WAR-WHAT?

This is question that is agitat-
ing the minds of the people all
over this country. There is no
doubt but what there will be an
"After the War" A few years
more of present conditions and
Europe will be pauperized and
those who are left with any strength
or spirit will seek other spheres
for their energies. The hope Of
Europe, after the war. is America
and viewed from any angle the
United States will experience an era
of prosperity unparalleled.
The present war is a blot on the
civilization of the age and is to be
regretted but condition confronts
the American people that cannot, on
any grounds, be avoided. While
we were in no sense responsible for
the beginning of the massacre or
for it's continuance, we can more
fully enter into the benefits de-
rived therefrom. Just Low this
new day will be ushered in no one
can definitely predict but one thing
is sure-there will be general re-
vival of business and one that will
extend to every honest endeavor.
But business opportunities are
not forced upon anyone. The in,
dividual or the community must
put itself into proper condition te
reap results. What can I do tc
place myself in right relation to
the economic conditions surround
ing me? How can I get my share
of the prosperity confronting me-
These are questions each must ans.
wer for himself. Individual effor'
must stand on it's own basis. Wha
brings profit to your neighbors ma!
miss you. Be assured of this fact
there's a good time coming and the
advance guard is already here
This should be a great year TO
Kendrick.

Let the People rule.

ACC Vic L CoPiS AiSs
Popular government in fact as
we'll as in name.
A free and untrammeled ballot is
the safe guard of civil liberty.
No one showing the least semb-
lance of dishonesty should be placed
in position of public trust.
Let the people rule in the choice
of candidates. Latah county has
had enough of machine rule.
This should be, and we confident
ly believe it will be, a banner year
for Kendrick. Let us all get to-
gether and pull, and all pull in the
same direction.
We are advancing along all lines,
and there is no reason why any one
should lag by the way. Comfort
able homes at least are within the
reach of all those of an industrial
and economic spirit.
No one should hold back or try to
block any effort or influence that is
put forth to beautify your little
city. Much needs to be done that
will cost no money but only few
hours of strenuous exertion outside
Of business. Let all good citizens
sweep before their own doors.
The vital question that concerns
all good citizens alike is, what shall
the year 1916 bring to us? We are
now half way through the third
month and it is presumed that all
have their plans laid for the year.
The next thing is to realize these
plans. This of course will take en-
ergy and continued perseverance.
We have somewhat extended
opportunities of reading the editori-
al pages of the leading daily papers
in Idaho and Spokane and we have
come to the conclusion that the
Lewiston Tribune has an editor that
beats them all. He is conservative
and, therefore, never misleading
His judgment is of the best and his
command of good English make him
a man to be reckoned with in the
newspaper world.

Mail Order Commandments

A subscriber has handed us the
following set Of commandments for
the guidance of patrons:
First-You shall believe our state
ments and buy all you need from us
because we want to be good to you,
although we are not personally
acquainted with you.
Second-You shall sell your farm
produce wherever you can, but not
to US. We do not buy from you.
Third-You shall send the money
in advance to give us chance to
get the goods from the factory with
your money; meanwhile you will
have to wait patiently for weeks, as
that is our business methods.
Fourth-You shall apply to your
nearest city to aid you in building
good roads so that you can convent.
emily get the goods from the depot,
for we do not build country roads.

Harmony and enthusiasm was the
political slogan of the Republican
State Central committee that met
in Boise last Saturday. This was
quite in contrast to meeting OF
the opposition a week before. OF
course no new departures were ex-
pected from this stalwart aggrega-
ton. The rule of the people was
not even considered. The dele
gates to the state convention will be
selected as the counties see fit. OF
course that means by the machine.
Each county is allowed six dele
gates for it's senator and six for
each of it's representatives. New
counties are allowed twelve dele
gates each. The State convention
will be held at Twin Falls on the
goth day of April.

curiosity was aroused, so l went in

pieces of meat for him to eat. At
my approach he srt-up his noisy
greeting.

meat on the ground. Then l went
away for a while so that he would
not think l was looking, for he
never would hide anything while l
was around. After short interval
l went cautiously up to a small
crack in the side of the pen, and
looking in l observed 10 busily en-
gagged in hiding a piece Of meat in
small crack. When he had this
completed he went back after
another bit. This he hid in a tin
can. After he had hidden several
pieces, he started to hide one in the
crack through which l was looking.
His bright eyes spied me, and here
he stopped and in an innocent way,
again set up his noisy call.
When I had kept 10 in captivity
for about four months | thought
would let him go free. + opened
the door and he came out in the
sunshine. When he found that he
was at liberty he flew to the top of
a nearby building. Thinking that
he had gone for good, l went away.
When evening came / found 10 sitt-
ing in his pen waiting for his
supper. From thistim on let him
go at will until one night he left
never to return. 10 must have
heard the call of some fellow bird,
and had gone to the life he wished
Freedom.

Magpies

One day last week five of us boys
went up some of the small gulches
to find young magpies. After a
brief hunt among the thorn bushes
we located several nests. Each boy
took his turn in climbing the tree
to the nest. Each nest that was
occupied contained seven young
birds. We destroyed the inhabit-
ants of four nests in short time.
We were looking for more victims
when we noticed several birds
perched in the limbs Of a large
thorn tree. On closer investiga-
ton we found that they were
young magpies just receiving their
first instructions in flying. They
were very wild, and among the
thorns were apparently safe. We
set to work tireing them out so
that we could catch them. It was
exciting work, and in half an
hour we had them all in captivity.
They were very pretty birds and
also we decided to keep them for
pets, as they are easily tanned. I
kept two for my share.
On arriving home I set to work
building a pen for them. After
this was made ready, l turned them
loose in it. They went hopping
about looking for something to eat,
so l secured some small pieces of
raw beef which they ate greedily.
They both grew fast but one was
never very strong while the other
thrived and grew to be a beautiful
bird. After about a month the
sick bird got so it refused to eat,
SO put it out of its misery.
The remaining one l named go"
and very interesting pet it made.
1t would go hopping about the pen
always alert for something to eat.
One day l went into his cage and
found to my surprise some bits of

existing, if they were not all, with the
exception of MehuPs Joseph" made
unfit by their treatment of sacred mat
ters, especially by their inclusion Of
love episodes which brought them into
the domain of secular opera.
For years, while on his concert tours
in various countries, Rubinstein labored
to put his plan into operation. Wher-
ever he found a public accustomed TO
oratorio performances he inquired into
the possibility of establishing his
sacred theatre there. He laid the
project before the Grand Duke Of Wei
mar who told him that it was feasible
only in large cities. The advice sent
him to Berlin, where he opened his
mind to the Minister of Education, Won
Muller. The official had his doubts;
sacred operas might do for Old Iesta-
ment stories, but not for New; more
over, such a theatre should be private,
not a governmental, undertaking. lie
sought the opinion of Stanley, dean Of
Westminster Cathedral, who said that
he could only conceive a realization Of
the idea in the oldtime popular manner,
upon a rude stage at country fair.
For a space it looked as if the lead
ers of the Jewish congregations in
Paris would provide funds for the
enterprise so far as it concerned itself
with subjects taken from the Old Dis
pensation; but at the last they backed
out, fearing to take the initiative in a
matter likely to cause popular clamor.
81 even thought of America" says
Rubinstein, "of the daring transatlan-
tic impresarios, with their lust Of
enterprise, who might be inclined to
speculate on a gigantic scale with my
/ idea. ] had indeed almost succeeded,
but the lack of artists brought it to
pass that the plans, already in a con-
siderable degree of forwardness, had to
/ be abandoned. | considered the pos
sibility of forming an association of
composers and performing artists to
work together to carry on the enter
prise materially, intellectually and ad-
ministratively; but the great difficulty
of enlisting any considerable number of
artists for the furtherance of a new
idea in art frightened me back from
this purpose also" In these schemes
there are evidences of Rubinstein's
willingness to follow examples set by
Handel as we'll as Wagner. The former
composed Judas Maccabeus" and
alexander Balus" TO please the Jews
who had come to his help when he
made financial shipwreck with his
opera; the latter created the Richard
Wagner Verein to put the Bayreuth
enterprise on its feet.

mands the liberation of his peo-
pie as the price to be paid for
the removal of the plague; receiving
promise from Pharaoh. he utters a
prayer ending with "Let there be
light" The result is celebrated in
brilliant choral reclamation of the re-
turning sun. The scene has parallel
in Rossinis opera. Pharaoh now
equivocates; he will free the sons of
Jacob, but not the women, children or
chattels. Moses threatens punishment
In the death of all of Egypt's first
born, and Immediately solo and chorus
voices bewail the new affection. When
the king hears that his son is dead he
gives his consent, and the Isrdelites
depart with an ejaculation of thanks to
Jehovah. The passage of the Red Sea,
Miyiap's celebration of that miracle,
the backsliding of the ISrdelites and
their worship of the golden calf, the
reception of the Tables of the Law, the
battle between the Isrdelites and
Moabites on the threshold of the
Promised Land and the evanishment
and apotheosis of Moses are the con-
tents Of the remainder of the work.

characteristics of the
Sacred Operas.

OF the six sacred operas composed by
Rubinstein three may be said TO be
practicable for stage representation.
They are 1.-The Maccabees," "Sulamith'
(based on Solomon's Song of Songs
and "Christus." The first has had many
performances in Germany; the second
had few performances in Hamburg in
1888; the last, first performed as an
oratorio in Berlin in 1885, was staged
in Bremen in 1895. II has had. / be-
lieve, about fourteen representations in
all. As for the other three works, "Der
Thurmbau zu Babel" first performance
in K0nigsberg in 1870. "Das verlorene
Paradies" Dusseldorf, 1879 and
"Moses" (still awaiting theatrical rep
resentation, believe), it may be said
of them that they are hybrid creations
which combine the oratorio and opera
styles by utilizing the powers Of the
oldtime oratorio chorus and the mod
ern orchestra, with the capacity de-
scriptive of both raised to the highest
power, to illustrate an action which is
beyond the capabilities Of the ordinary
stage machinery. In the character of
the forms employed in the works there
