TO BUILD PEACE CODE
International Law Institute Convenes
at Washington

Washington.-The American Insti-
tute of International Law, just or
ganized here, and composed of pub
licists. of all the American republics,
holds its first regular business session
at 10 o'clock this morning, when the
scope of it's activities will be consid-
.ered in detail.
In an address before the meeting
which organized the American Insti
.tute of International Law, Secretary
Lansing said international law was
today "in state of chaos and must
be reconstructed. We must get down
to the very bedrock and build anew.
In the past international law was
drawn up largely in favor of bellig-
erents. 1t should be our duty to re-
draw the codes and in doing SO to
give neutrals their place, making war
the outlaw.
The international law societies of
IS of the FL American republics have
to the idea of codified in
ternational law.

MAKING FILMS OF WAR
British People VIII see Pictures of
Life at the Front

London.-The war office recently
officially sanctioned the taking of
cinematograph films at the front for
exhibition in England. The Associa-
ton of Cinematograph Manufacturers
was consulted by them to undertake
the actual photography DR.. Distin
Maddox was appointed by the war
office to supervise operations and
worked under the direction of the
general staff at the front All the
films have been censored, both by
headquarters and by the war
office. and the first batch is expected
to be ready shortly. The aim of
the war office is to give the people
OF England some idea of the life led
by the troops abroad, to show what
their work is; also to make known
the vast organization that has been
built up since the war began.

GREENEsT OF THE GREEN

| A. J. Snyder, of Springfield, tells
good story of man in Chicago
who was unable to get the proper
setting of things in a new settlement
and harmonic them. Nobody would
expect to find four story brick
building out in the sage plains nor
street car in the desert, and this
man who was operating a rooming
house and was land hungry spent
a pleasant hour probing Mr.. Snyder
and listening to his description of
things in Idaho and down on the
tract in particular. He drank 1t in
with eager ears, about the great
plains, the cold springs, the long
irrigating canal, the .privations en-
dured, the things hoped for, and
finally in his enthusiasm he said,
".And, of course, Mr.. Snyder, you
have your little electric run-about?"
In the spring of the year 1900
there was great exodus from some
parts of the world to the Nome gold
coast and in the latter part of June
about $4,000 people were unloaded
from ships on strip of beach about
100 feet wide and three miles long.
The beach was wet sand, and once
off the beach they were in the mud
and ice of the tundra. Space was
at a premium and men Unanswered
For hours to find room to make down
heir beds or pitch tent It seemed
as if half the men one met had

NEW MEASURES BY SMITH
Idaho Congressman Will Introduce
Bills of Interest to State

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Smith
of Idaho, presented a bill on the
fourth day Of January. when the con-
|gress reconvenes, providing that
where national forest extends in
more than one state or county, the
proportionate share of receipts for
school and road fund shall be de-
termined according to the amount re-
|ceived instead of by area within the
state or county, as at present. Under
existing law the division is made ac-
cording to area, which is unfair In
many instances because Of the fact
that receipts from the sales of timber
are often much larger In a small
area In state or county that in a
larger portion in the a-joining state
or county.
He will also introduce a bill to
provide that rural free delivery car
ries shall receive an amount equal to
t25 per cent of their compensation for
purchasing and maintaining their
equipment. In the cities where horses
,or vehicles are necessary, the carrier
is given an allowance of from $25 to
$50 per month to take care of the
same, and the proposed bill extends
to rural carriers the same considera-
ton as is extended to city carriers.
= Mr.. Smith will also introduce bill
to authorize the secretary of the
treasury to provide an addition to
the present site and the construction
of an addition to the Federal build
ing at Boise, the cost not to exceed
$250,000. Also bills to purchase
sites for federal buildings at Weiser,
Blackfoot and HALEY, and an appro-
priation for the construction of
federal building at Caldwell, Idaho,
a site having already been procured.
Also bill providing for the estab-
lishment of the Idaho Sawtooth Ma
tional park, extending into Boise, Ell
more, Blaine and Custer counties.
This measure has the Endorsement of
the department of the interior. The |
proposed park will be loacted about
100 miles northeast of Boise, the |
most picturesque portion of the state.

One Of the most gratifying things
that happened in the whole year was
the result of the water famine. We
refer to the willingness that marked
the course of hundreds of farmers in
giving up their water for few days
during the drouth, to persons who
confessed they had no right to it,
but simply asked it as gift be-
cause they needed it SO badly. Some
of those who donated the water, did
1t expecting to suffer sharp loss
in their own yield and the losses in
such cases were generally little or
nothing, while the Others gains were
incalculable. Another lesson in the
matter was that some, who refused
to donate, used the water on their
own crops to keep them from getting
dry and lost by that, illustrating what
was written, HE that saves his own
shall lose it.

PARADE PERMIT TO MOVE MoPs

Chicago's Christmas shoppers wit
messed very unusual sight Monday
when the Channell Chemical com
pany hauled shipment of O-Cedal
oil mops through the business sec
ton Of the city, and which was con-
signed to foreign port,
This shipment weighing 10 tons
and valued at $4,000, formed such
Q long procession that it was neces-
sary to first obtain a parade permit
before the merchandise could be
taken to the freight station.
A squad of mounted police headed
this unique parade, which was five
blocks in length, and for some time
all down town traffic was completely
blocked The shipment was an out
right sale and taxed the load capacity
of "a immense trucks, each of which
was decorated with American flags
and carried bunting sign reading,
zone order to one country"
This is by far the largest single
order of oil mops for floors ever ship
ped by any concern, at one time, and
is the result of an aggressive cam
paign on the part of the CHANNEL
Chemical company for foreign bust
ness Since the world war began this
company has sold more than 10000
mops in Europe alone.
A previous export shipment, fully
Insured at its value of $4,000, and
carried by the steamship 1nkum,
went to the bottom when that boat
was torpedoed recently by sub
marine Goodwin's Weekly.

In 1915 the. editor wanted several
things: A thousand dollars worth
of new type to set advertisements
with; thousand-dollar automobile,
and new modern linotype, costing
five thousand dollars Looking back
over the year we know now that we
acted upon Col. Fugate's theory.
We bought all the new type that We
thought the business would justify,
but it was not all we wanted. We
banished thoughts of can auto and
used bike, horse and buggy and
occasionally an auto livery. We
bought repairs for the old linotype
and studied hard to equip it with all
the modern type moulds (matrices)
that can be used with it. During the
dull days of January we will clean
and repair and remove weak and
worn parts about the machinery just
as Col. Fugate said to do with the
old binder and the mower and stove
crate. Everybody about the office
will be working for a bigger and
better 1915.

Before we started to work on our
crop reports last fall We employed
an office girl to do the editors work
while he was in the country, and to
do as much as she could of the
routine work all the time. An office
girl is generally a near-failure in
newspaper work, but some of them
are not. 1t is nice work for girl,
who really wants to work and has
the disposition to learn the business
and carry as much of 1t as she is
able. One who tries to learn some
thing every day and put into practice
all that she learned before, is what
country newspaper needs. The
Republican office has such helper
in Miss Marie Christensen. She
waits on customers, answers the
phone, edits the country correspond
ence, writes the news that is brought
in and phoned in, reads the proofs,
posts the books, pay the bills, re-
spends to calls for charity, attends
to the banking and is well informed
as to all the ms and outs of the
business, what the business agree
ments are, what the paper is under
taking and what it is working for
and against From the time she |
opens the safe in the morning until
she turns on the combination at |
night, every cent passes thru her
hands and is recorded and the books |
balanced. If somebody is expected |
to come to town tomorrow to pay
us certain note or obligation, she
knows about it, and If there is in
surance to be paid this month she
knows what day. it is due, and will
pay it the day before. There isn't
any reason why a girl graduate,
should not be able to handle all thd :

Speaking of team work, if the
water users had not done any team
work the losses would have been ap-
palling. The telephone did very
important part in enabling the team
work to succeed Example: "A GER
tain canal is going to shut off its
water in 40 hours; their water will
flow to a certain point in another
county by IL O'Clock noon; the evap-
Grafton and seepage running the dis
lance is per cent; draw go inches
on the thousand at that hour and
continue for 40 hours, by consent of
the owners and by order of the COM
mission" The duty of water was in
creased by attention to details, and
the marked advantages of the plan
from the basis for mutual added
wealth for coming years. We say
we own our own water and want to
have it entirely under our own con-
troll and will not be interferred with
by any engineer or commission, but
we feel mean when we say it, and we
see our mistake later. A good many
of us have been under the wrong i'm
preston anyway and may be bigger
and broader hereafter.

eo during the year. AT the turn
Of the year it is timely to sit down
and have little chat together, and
that has been in progress for about
month altho we hardly realized it
until now. While we are talking,
let's say few things rather frankly
as they come to mind and see if it
isn't just about the truth.
1t has always been said that this
is an agricultural district. That was
good place to stop, for If we dis
cussed the grade or quality of agri-
culture as it existed, we had to admit
that there seemed to be some kind
of blight resting upon the land, for
only part of the population was doing
any good. Most of us have not been
very progressive or we have not been
doing much team work" in our
progress. Fellowship has been too
much broken up in the neighborhood.
every neighborhood, by diTreences in
religion, politics, lack of good will
for the neighbors Wouldn't it break
the greatest deadlock in our progress
and prospects If we could all smile
and Danish those purely fanciful diff
ferences? Try it.

The Republican office is crowded,
cooped up, needs more room. A per-
son, who reads and writes and stud
les, needs quiet place free from
momentary Interruptions, where he
can see people alone If they wish to
talk. Present plans are to erect an
addition to the building and use 1t
for stock room; take the present
stock room and retit it for a study
for the editor. Let him spread his
work around and 60 to it as hard
and as long as he want to. If he
spends half his time chasing prob
lens of farming and stock raising,
and the other half writing it up and
making living, the intention will
be to help in the task of making that
additional million in crops in the
county.

hundred dollars, an hour In the
county. The good crops and pros
|perity apparent in the fall, compared
with what confronted peopleain July,
confirmed our belief that much good
was accomplished by the team work;
and the way people hunted us up
in December to spend money with
us for subscription and printing and
publishing, made US feel that our
humble part In the team work Of
July and August was being reward
ed. December was such banner
month in subscriptions, it makes us
feel like planning some more team
work for the whole season of 1916.
The scores of letters and other
statements we have received as to
the advantage growing out of the
publication of our magazine section,
from spreading the information it
contained--information that others
gave us and which we simply CLASH
fed and handed back again to the
whole public, convinces us that we
can do more good, and help the
county to make the million we men
toned. We think this can be ac-
complished best by getting an agri-
cultural agent to show those who
are willing to be shown how to. do
certain things better. Without the
county agent less can be accomplish
ed. In either case our part would
be the travelling up and down
country lanes. stopping where there
was something to be learned and
reported upon, and in a quiet office
doing a lot of reading and typewrit-
Ing, getting matter ready for publica-
ton. But some farmers insist that
they don't and won't read in sum-
mer; they are too busy working at
that isn't paying them.
Some of the farmers will read.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1916-01-07

Last week we talked about in
creasing the yield a dollar an acre
on each acre of land in the county
Nobody knows about the exact acre
age, but ali observers will probably
concede that the yield can be in
creased dollar to a hundred dol
lars an acre, and that a general
average increase of dollar an acre
is entirely possible to attain. Ac-
cording to our estimate that would
make an increased wealth in the
county of a large sum of money
for 1916 We have talked with a
good many farmers who are already
making plans that will insure their
getting good share of that million.
If man had 100 acres, and his new
plans give him an extra 500, he
will be getting his share of the in
crease; if he gets more, he is beating
the record and he is welcome to it.
We are anxious to get the plans
going, SO the money will be coming
into evidence with spring growth.

for appendicitis at the Paragould

slowly improving at the sanitarium
though physicians say his lower ex-
