THAT FULL DINNER PAIL.

Relying foolishly upon the full din
ner pail to accomplish for them what
II has so often accomplished for the
Republican party. the Democrats pro-
coed to pile extravaganza upon ex-
travagance and to make flabby claims
of being at peace, even when we are
at war, says the Detroit Journal.
For the dinner pail has been filed
with munitiop money. which presently
must be supplanted by the true coin
age Of protected American Industry
after the war.
And while the dinner pail is full,
observe with what inflated foods.
This administration promised the
worker lower cost Of living. But,
as matter Of fact, to the worker
Democratic prosperity is false pros
perity. II is a mirage.
Every man with dinner pail
knows that, unless his wages have
been Increased 20 per cent. under
Democratic munition prosperity. he Is
poorer than he was four years ago.
For Wilson rents are from 20 to 40
per cent higher: the Wilson meat
the Wilson sugar and the Wilson wool
are 10 per cent higher. and the VIII.
son steel and tin and household goods
are from 20 to 40 per cent. higher
The Wilson bread has advanced
faster than the Wilson wage. and the
Wilson taxes have risen higher than
the Wilson prosperity.
Democracy may have enriched the
munition manufacturer. but has II
enriched the worker. whose cost Of
living has Increased faster than bis
earningsf
II the Administration can re-eIect
itself on the ground that the worker
IL obliged to move out OF his home
into an inferior one. or has to double
up In tenements and to take IN board
ers to make up for his loss Of eco
nomic advantage under the present
Increased COST OF living. then there Is
no reason why the Administration
should not he as extravagant IN tn
taxes a. II choosed.

IDAHO HISTORY IN
IDAHO SCHOOLS.
press Bulletin.)

M press Bulletin.)
Growing interest is manifested In
the movement to give our children
in the schools some knowledge OF
how Idaho and the Northwest were
won from the desert and made into
land of homes and civilization
Throughout the state men and wo-
men who have made a study of pio-
neer history are offering their help.
What is most needed just now is
a collection of stories for children in
the primary and grammar grades,
The State Department Of Education
has already some material, but more
is needed.
The latest contribution consists of
the Nez Perez Indian legend of the
creation OF man, which has been fur
nished by Adjutant General Moody,
who lived for many years among
the Nez Perez, and is himself an
adopted member of the tribe. DR..
Moody has promised other legends,
and also stories of Idaho life.
We should have hundreds Of stor-
les from which to select the best to
give our children an insight into the
lives and characters of their par
ents and forefathers and the courage
energy and intelligence that were
demanded by pioneer life and strug-
giles.
Education must begin at home
that is the only place it can begin.
Only by knowing and feeling the
true interest and power of our own
history can our children fully grasp
and sympathize with the history Of
BUR country and the world.
All who are interested are asked
70 send stories of pioneer life In
Idaho and the Northwest to the
State Department Of Education for
use, II suitable, In the collection of
stories for use In schools.

PAYErTE DIDN'T START IT.

1t must be understood by every
honest Republican voter in Canyon
COUNT who wanted harmony In the
party ranks. that Payette did not
seek to make the question OF coun-
ty division an issue in the campaign
that closed with the primaries on
Sept. 5th; that the subject of coun-
ty division was sprung at the
eleventh hour by some OF the Cald-
well Republican leaders and the
Caldwell Tribune; that Payette Val
ley Republicans were forced into a
position where they had to fight
On the defensive against what at
first appeared to be overwhelming
odds-but which proved to be-as
q matter of fact--a tolerable even
break. II Caldwell has won any great
victory worth Growing about, it does
not appear upon the face Of the
returns. We very much doubt IL any
considerable number of Republicans
VIII be found outside Of Caldwell
who are ready to give their sanction
to the kind OF controversy that
was injected into the contest at the
Cnayon county Republican primaries.
Payette Valley Republicans asked
FOR only one member Of the legis-
lature and gave the largest vote Of
any part OF the county for four of
those who were successful in the
south end of the county. not one Of
whom was believed to be any more
friendly to Payette than to Caldwell.
Just make a note Of the fact for
future reference.

MARKET MAKES GAIN
 AFTER { ABLY LOSS

New York, April 5.--A renewal of near-month liquidation caused an early decline in the cotton market, but prices rallied on covering and trade buying, with July selling up from 11.91c to 12c, and closing at 11.97c. The general list closed steady. net 9 points lower to points higher.
 The Liverpool market was again relatively easy and prices here opened at a decline of to points, with the active months selling about 3 to $ points net lower before the end of the morning. The near positions were relatively easy with May easing of to 11.77c, while October worked down to 12.O4c and December to 12.2Oc. After the close at Liverpool, offerings became lighter ana there seemed to be a particularly good demand for December contracts. Some attributed this buying to Liverpool, although houses with Liverpool connections had been sellers of January earlier Tn the day, while others thought it was for the account of some of the larger spot interests, who were also credited with moderate purchases of May.
 The market steadied with May sell ing up to 11.85c, October to l2'16c and December to 12.32c in the late trading, or about net unchanged to 9 points higher. The close was slightly off from the best, under realizing. Comparatively few reports were re- ceived from the Southern spot situa- ton. One of the wires from Texas said there was poor demand for spots and Galveston advices stated that 25 steamer had been booked for April and May saii'ngs.

SPOKANE SCHOOL.
 CHILDREN ORGANIZING
Safety First" MOtto-WOrk Ar ranged to Provide Supervision Not Only in Schools But on Streets.

Spokane, Wash, April 6.-With Safety First" as their motto. school children of Spokane are organizing a large guard whose purpose shall be to prevent accidents. Their work has been arranged to provide supervision not only in the schools but on the streets as well. Members of the guard arep ledged always to keep to the right, to go up and down stairs one step at a time, to see that the little chaps have a fair chance on the play grounds and that they do not get hurt. Among the guards qualifications out of school are the following: He does not play on streets where street cars run; he does not coast across street car or railroad tracks; he looks sharp for automobiles, wagons and motor- cycles when alighting from street cars; he does not loiter around rail- road stations or cars; he does not walk on railroad bridges or tracks; he makes the car stop before he gets off or on; he does not hitch on or steal rides on street cars, automobiles or wagons; he never uses his roller skates, his skatemobile or his coaster near street car tracks or where many automobiles run; he does not jump off moving trains, cars or engines; he looks out for automobiles turning corners; he looks where he goes and keeps to the right; he looks and lis- tens for danger signals and needs them. To interest the children in the work, the school board has adopted a plan of organization providing for the award of buttons to all who qualify and for commissions to the officers of guards in each grade

By total majority of 922 votes in the district, Chancellor J. D. Shaver has won the re-nomination over M. E. Sanderson in the Democratic primary of Wednesday.
 Due to the lateness of the returns coming in from over the district, the chancellor's race had been considered in doubt by some, with both candi- dates claiming the victory. Sevier county was the last to make official returns, and this county gave Sander son S55 and Shaver 985, making the latter's total majority throughout the entire district 922.

LINES OF COMMUNICA.
 TON INEFFECTIVE
Would Occasion No Surprise in
 Washington if First Chief Questioned Propriety of U. S. Going Further on Blind Trail.

Washington, D. C., April 5.-In the absence of news of fighting in Mexico between the American forces and Vil- Ia bandits, attention of officials here centers on the diplomatic aspects Of the expedition. Information of the departments regarding use of the railroads to ship supplies to General Pershing was conflicting. The war department had no report that the Mexican authorities at Juarez had or ders to accept shipments from Gen. eral Funston.
 Mir. Lansing declared he thought the difficulty was physical, not politi- cal, and was due largely to the dis organized condition of rolling stock and roadbed of the Mexican North western. Some officials still were in- clined to connect the delay in permit ting use of the railways with a desire on the part of Carranza to see the American soldiers back on their own territory. Already it is understood defacto officials on the border have made formal inquiries as to how long the expedition will remain in Mexico and how much further southward it expects to penetrate.
 As legally, the United States now is pursuing a hot trail it would occasion no great surprise here if Carranza should suggest that the trail had got ten cold and question the propriety of the United States proceeding much further,
 Immediate necessity for strength ening Pershing's lines of communion tion caused Secretary Baker to send telegraphic orders today for l0S more motor trucks and gasoline tanks. Sec retary Baker stated that he was per fectly satisfied that under existing conditions the motor service was ade- quate.
 General Funston today forwarded d message from General Pershing stating the latter conferred Monday at Providencia with Colonel Dodd. Providenca is about thirty miles north of Guerrero and only twenty miles beyond the southernmost end of motor communication lines at Nami- qupa. Officials believe General Per shing was at the front of the ad- vanced lines and the expedition is en- gagged in combing the country about Guerrero.
