stern realities of army life. The
duh routine OF guard duty, the lonely
outpost, the heat Of the desert, the
torture of inactlon, all combine TO test
the spirit of the boys of the regiment,
and all reports agree that they have
stood the test in a manner that has
brought honor to the state and won
high commentator from the regular
officers. The people of Idaho should
let them know that their interest in
them did not cease when the train
bore them away. They should be re-
membered by sending them for
Christmas such articles as will add to
their comfort and enjoyment. and a
liberal cash contribution to the COM
pany fund would be most acceptable,
Whatever is done in this respect
should be taken up now.

TWO JEWISH GOVERNORS.

1t is interesting to note that at the
recent elections, two western states
Idaho and Utah, chose as chief execu-
tives men of the Jewish race.
| Two years ago the state of Idaho
elected Moses Alexander, merchant
of Boise, governor of that state and
this year Governor Alexander was re-
elected. This year the people of Utah
elected Simon Bamberger governor of
that state.
The fact that man is member Of
any specific church organization or
that by the accident of birth he be a
jew or Gentle, Protestant or Catho-
/ lie, or that he belongs to no religious
sect should not in the least degree
initiate for or against his candidacy
for public office.
In a democracy such as ours, there
can be no legitimate place for racial
or religious prejudice. AS a matter of
fact we believe that mans racial or
religious affiliations are of far less
moment to the voting public than we
are sometimes prone to imagine.
When a person is named as the can
didate Of a party for place of honor
and responsibility, it is only natural
that persons who have associated with
him in any particular line of work or
have personal affinity for him on ac-
count of similar occupation, race or
religion should feel a little more
closely drawn to that particular can
didate than they do to a total strang-
er, but we do not believe that there
has been or will be any voting in bulk
by any church or secular organiza-
tions or nationalities.
The fact that Simon Bamberger has
been elected governor of Utah and
Moses Alexander is reelected governor
OF Idaho is prima facie proof that
these two men have stood for good
citizenship and right living in their
respective communities.
That these two men of Jewish birth
have been given the highest places of
in their states is not be-
cause of the fact that they are Jews,
neither were they defeated because of
the fact that they were Jews
Simon Bamberger and Moses Alex
ander were elected because a majority
OF their fellow citizens believed them
to be the most competent men for the
places to which they have been chos-
en-.
Their election is refreshing re-
minder of the basic thorough going
democracy of the American people.

Throughout their entire depth, the top

so far depart from the perpendicular

instead of one vein. Under such cir
cumstances the locator is entitled to
extralateral rights in opposite direc-
lions inasmuch as the end lines of his
claim must necessarily have two di-
rections, and the statute can not be
construed as limiting end lines to one
direction only.

UNSouNDNESS OF AMERICAN
FOREIGN TRADE ADMITTED.

Last week the department of COM
merce advertised for ten men at $40
per day and expenses to investigate
opportunities for trade expansion in
foreign countries. Thus it practically
admits the unsoundness of our present
trade, We now have an excess of ex-
ports over imports amounting to 3d.
50O,0O0,000 per year--unprecedented in
the history of the world. During the
recent campaign, the administration
pointed to this as an evidence of DEM
ocratic efficiency. Republicans declar-
ed that it was merely temporary and
Would end with the war, Though
the administration already has many
men working in foerign lands seek
ing new markets, they want ten more
men at government expense to find
new markets-and at time when our
own people are having a hard time
buying our own products.

Spokane is a poor loser. Sore over
failure to secure the experimental
mining station. that city now proposes
to appeal from Secretary Lanes de-
cision TO President Wilson. Spokane
apparently assumes that If the secre-
tary's action should be reversed by
the president, that city would receive
the coveted plum. As a matter OF
fact, the interests of the mining In
dustry would be served but little bet
ter with the station Spokane. But
the appeal will be quickly disposed of
by the president, foE.he is not likely
to interfere with the fulfllment of
prediction promises made by his sec
rotary of the interior when the presi-
dent himself is the chief beneficiary.
The electoral vote Of Washington
must not go unrewarded.

OUR THANKS SHOULD INCLUDE
HELP TO UNFORTUNATE.

In his Thanksgiving day proclama-
ton President Wilson not only urges
the people to resort to their places of
worship to render thanks" for the
peace and prosperity the nation is en-
joying, but also to think in deep
sympathy of the stricken peoples upon
whom the curse and terrors of war
have so pitiless fallen" That Is a
most worthy thought and one that
should make profound impression
upon the heart of every American.
The prosperity we enjoy is due to the
demands of war across the sea which
has brought appalling disaster to ma
tons and spread desolation among
millions of non combatants who are
even now suffering for want of food,
clothing and shelter, While we as
semble around the bounteous board,
HilllluHS VI IIiSlii nOlliCl ahu AAiNiSh
are confronted with starvation and
are actually dying from hunger and
cold Under these conditions it is lit
tie short of mockery to raise our
voices in thanks to God for the bless
ings we enjoy unless we at the same
time loosen our purse strings for the
'srelief of those who are innocent suf-
ferers through the ravages of war.
The appeal for help from the unfor-
Inmates of Europe should not be ig-
nored by the people of the Occur
d'Alene district, for their suffering is
the price of our prosperity Let us
make this Thanksgiving day memoir
able by subscribing great fund that
win carry a ray of Christmas cheer to
the desolate homes of war stricken
Europe. Let us make our thanks
more than mere platitude Let us
combine with it deep feeling of hui
man sympathy that will find express
sion in generous relief to those who
are engulfed in the darkness of hope
lessness and despair.

last week that the station will go t.
The interests of the mining industry
in the northwest have been barteret
and sold in exchange for political ad.
yantages to the Wilson administra-
|tion. After Mr.. Manning returned tC
the capital and made his report Sec
rotary Lane authorized the announce
ment that no decision would be made
as to the location of the station until
after the election. The electoral vote
of Washington was delivered to Will
son, fact that was soon followed by
the announcement that the expert
mental station would be located at
Seattle. II the state had gone for
Hughes the two great mining states
of the northwest Idaho and Montana
would probably have received con-
sderation in the location of the sta
ton. AS 1t Is the real interests of the
mining industry appear to have been
deliberately sacrificed in order to ad
vance the political interests of the
Wilson administration.
The experimental station should
have been located either at Moscow or
Butte. We believe that Moscow is the
most favorable location, for it is near
the center of the territory to be serv-
ed The facilities offered by the state
university would have proved of great
benefit to the experimental station
and there were other substantial and
valuable inducements offered in sup
port of Moscow. AS a mining state
Idaho alone presents field for such
a station as the government will es.
tablish and Moscow is near the scene
of actual mining operations, as well
as being easily accessible to all parts
of the northwest But if not Moscow,
then the station should have been
placed at Butte, which also offered the
advantage of the Montana school of
mines. 1t is the greatest mining camp
in the world and the center of vast
mining and metallurgcal operations.
Certainly it's claims were worthy OF
if there had been real
desire to serve the interests of the
mining industry,
So far as Spokane is concerned the
argument against the location of the
station at Seattle applies to that city,
the only difference being in degree. II
Is removed from the scene of mining
activity and is situated in state that
has not reached position of inn
oortance in metal mining.

NAVY YARD AT BUTTE.

Butte among several other western
cities, made strong bid for the new
mining experiment station authorized
by congress.
Secretary of the Interior Franklin
K. Lane had the selecting of the site
and an official of his department came
out this way to investigate.
Now comes the word that Seattle
has been chosen as the place for It,
If Butte citizens are very indignant
about 1t they are right.
If Butte is not the place for min
ing experiment station, then certainly
Seattle of all places is not.
Even Spokane, which is near a
prominent mining locality, had far
more right to 1t than Seattle.
Butte, of course, was the logical
place for it and the official who advis-

not expect this community to feel
pleased about his Judgment.
If 1t is logical that Seattle have q

here, or have navy yard established
on Silver Bow creek, or have that
body of water dredged so that battle
ships can float on 1t.

POLITICS AND MINING EXPERT
MENTAL STATION.

The designation of Seattle as the
location for the experimental mining
station to serve the mining interests
OF the states of the northwest-Mo
tana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon
lis fragrant exhibition of the dis
position of the Wilson administration
to make the industrial interests Of the
country subservient to its political
complishment is even more repugnant
to the principle Of fair play which is
presumed to rule in such matters. If
Secretary of the Interior Lane had
made up his mind months ago to
place the northwest station at Seattle,
and he evidently had, it would have
been more manly on his part to have
announced his decision and stood by
it rather than to have made a pre-
tense of investigating as a means of
determining the most desirable loca-
ton. Last August Van H. Manning
director of the bureau of mines, was
commissioned by the secretary of the
interior to visit the northwest and af-
ter making personal inspection of
the various applicants for the expert
mental station, to make a recommen-
dalton to the secretary based on his
findings About the time Mr. Man
ming started west a report was sent
out from Washington that Secretary
Lane had decided to place the expert
mental station at Seattle. OF course,
this was promptly denied by the Sec
rotary, who stated that no decision
would be reached until Mr. Manning
had completed his Investigations But
the denial by the secretary of the in
terror did not remove the cloud of
suspicion that the visit of Mr.. Man
ming was not being made in good faith

| If we must have non partisan
Judiciary let us at least give the
names of the candidates a position on

sion of choice by the people. Out of

recent election, less than half voted

The law requires the non partisan

of the blanket ballot and the majority
OF voters overlook it. being far more
concerned over the contest for sheriff
or county commissioner and possibly
a few state offices which appear in
the first columns. NThe non-partisan
ticket should be placed above the
partisan tickets on the ballot where
1t would be sure to be seen by the
voter; or better still, the non-par-
tisan feature should be eliminated al
together.
