A Boost for the
St. Maries Band

The st. Maries Band continues
to meet for practice every Tues
day night, in spite of the fact that
so far they have not been able to
get the moral supp<r rt, let alone
the financial support of the citi-
zens of St. Maries.
I'm view Of the fact that the
amount needed to support the
band is small, if the business
men and citizens Of st. Maries
would each contribute $3.50 or
$500 each month st. Maries
would soon have a band equal to
any Of our sister cities. Bear
this i'm mind and when the bust
ness manager, Mr.. Billy Mack,
calls to solicit your subscription
unite that knot in your purse
strings and loosen up. Lets get
together and sake the st. MaFies
Band a permanent proposition.
There are none of US who would
not like to hear a good concert by

mat the republican COilNchOlOh
at Twin Falls was not so harmon
ious as republican newspapers
and politicians would have the
public believe is indicated by the
following taken from the Caldwell
Tribune. one of the leading re-
publican papers of south Idaho;
The men who stood out above
the average in force, courage and
ability, excepting here the one or
two manipulators, we're Col. Thos.
R. Hamer, Lieutenant Governor
Taylor and General Peterson. Col
Hamer, in an emergency, was
called upon to take charge of and
direct the convention. This he
did. He responded with an ad-
dress characteristic Of him and
forced the conviction for a while
at least that this was a republic
an convention. He got the con-
ventiOn into running order and
there was grave danger that the
that the pot of beans might be up
set. Col. Hamer stood out clear
and distinct in that convention as
the biggest, brainiest man there.
Unhappily for him, unhappily for
Idaho, the powers that be i'm Ida
no, cannot use Col. Hamer i'm their
politics and consequently the
state loses the services of one of
its greatest citizens. Perhaps
at some time or other there will
be change in the control of Ida
no politics. If such an event
should take place Col. Hamer will
be called upon again to serve the
people of Idaho in positions of
honor and trust.
Lieutenant Governor Taylor
was notified by a committee that
he could not get the republican
nomination for governor and that
he had better make way for Mr..
Crum. The sentiment of the
convention may be summed up
thus Crum ought to be the nom
inee; Senator d. w. Davis prob
ably will be. Mr.. Taylor refused
point blank to get out of the way.
He stated that he was in the field
and would stay there until the last
vote is counted. Mr.. Taylor has
strange, exotic ideas about poll
ties in Idaho. He seems to think
that any man has right to par
ticipate in politics or even to
stand for public Office without the
consent Of anyone. Such rights
are unknown. They are dreams
and dreams that are already
dreamed, at present not even fur
nishing exhileration during their
course nor relief after their pass
age.
We admire the courage MT.
Taylor showed when he told J. w.
Hart to go jump in the lake. We
fear that he has little chance OF
being nominated but he may help
to kill the arrogance with which
some Idaho politicians are at
present affected. If he does, he
will not have struck in vain.
General Peterson too showed
courage. He went TO Twin Falls
under the impression that he was
going to a republican convention

GERMANY WILLING
 TO STATE TERMS
OFFICIALDOM IS OPTIMISTIC
Statement of Lloyd George that tl,e Allies are Waiting for Germany to Submit Terms Indicates Allies are in Receptive Mood.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 2O.- An authority close to the German en- bassy here states that the Kaiser is willing to submit terms upon which Germany is willing to negotiate for peace. Germany will probably sug gest the submission of the terms to a joint conference of representatives of the nations engaged in the strug- gle.
 President Wilson and Secretary of State Lansing are silent. refusing to discuss she matter with newspaper representatives. It is believed that they will refrain from discussing the peace proposal until matters have reached a stage where there will be offered an opportunity to the United States to tender its good offices in bringing about an end to the strug- gle.
 Optimism prevails in official cir Cles, and the statement of Premier George that the Entente Allies are awaiting for Germany to submit her terms and guarantees stronger than those she so lightly broke at the be- ginning of the war. This is believed to indicate that the Allies are in q receptive mood, and that negotiate ms for peace may soon be under way.

This morning Judge Bunnell, at the opening of the session of court, signed the order changing the decree issued in the case of the Unit ed States vs. Fitzgerald. Hennessy, ct als.. or dering the destruction of the liquors seized at Point Possession instead of the sale of the same as provided in an original decree.
 Originally this stock of liquor con- sisted of more than 5.0nI bottles, but in transportation to Seward on Q barge a storm was encountered in which the barge was roughly handled and as a consequence many of the bottles were broken, but little of the original stock remaining intact. Uu- der the original decree of the court this liquor was to have been sold by the marshal at Seward at public auc- tion, but the women's clubs and citi |. zens raised such a protest that the order was revoked and the stock or dered destroyed.

The note will state that the Col rmbian was held up by a German submarine. and was released when her nationality was learned. After the release of the steamer her wira less operator sent out warnings giv- ing the location of the submarine to any other vessels which might be within reach. This was gross viola ton of neutrality and for this reaso I the vessel was sunk. Germany will claim that the sinking of the steam,r was wholly within the provisions C. international law, and was brought about by the acts of the officers of the steamer.

A compilation of the official vote for the Third Division, as received at the office of the Clerk of the Court. with the Bristol Bay precincts and Reindeer and Bonanza missing, shows that Roman has won the election for Territorial Senator by IA votes over John Frame, his nearest competitor. In the vote for members of the Terri torial Legislators Frank Cannon leads the list, but late returns have busted c. M. Day from his position in second Price. The third and fourth places are taken by c. M. Day and Thomas Holland, respectively, the latter hav- ing overtaken Murrays lead in the last returns and is now leading him by votes. The returns from Una laska, Chignik and Unga also added 100 votes to Wilson's poll for Road Commissioner, leaving him g in ad- vance of Wood, who was previously in the lead. The total vote of the di- vision so far received is as follows:
