H VEN greater crowds attended the municipal movies at Capitol 4--A park last night, and the con- cert by the Alabama Industrial school band was thoroughly enjoyed. The March of an Empire a seven-reel motion picture of the school system of Los Angeles, will be shown again tonight at Capitol park, and another band concert will be heard by those who rest under the trees. Another feature of the pictures and concert at Capitol park tonight is that it IS very likely that Commissioner George 5. Ward will be- present to tell Walter Moore just Vow educational "The March of ane Empire" really is. At least both of them have promised to be there.
 The showing of the educational movies is in the interest of the g. 000,000 school bond issue which Will be voted on June }. From the en- thusiasm aroused thus far it appears that the school bonds will carry by large ma ajority.

In a recent public statement, Governor Alexander paid
an unconscious tribute to the past state land boards, and
one which should be considered by every citizen Of Idaho,
when the campaign TRADE against former Republican adj
ministrations is under way. Governor Alexander stated
that under his administration for the first time a list was
compiled of the loans upon which interest was in arrears
and these loans aggregated several thousands of dollars.
A rigorous effort at collection was made and he was salts
fled that the loss to the state, if any, on all the loans would
not aggregate $4,000. Further investigation has shown
that it has never been the policy of the board to force
collections and that in the 25 years of statehood in which
loans have been made, and which aggregate millions of
dollars there have been only a few foreclosures, and in
the lands taken over it is estimated that the state has
made a profit Of fully $4,000.
Taking this fact in conjunction with the statement Of
Governor Alexander's and it will be seen that the state
land boards of Idaho have made the astounding record
of loaning money over a period of more than a quarter of
a century, sums up into many millions of dollars and have
never lost a penny. In view Of this fact it would appear
that the charges of collision, of fraudulent loans and of
favoritism must lose their force, as we do not believe
there is a financial institution in the world that could
equal this record.
Governor Alexander is to be congratulated upon this
unconscious tribute to the honesty, integrity and ability
Of his predecessors, the villifcation Of whom is his prin-
ciple stock in trade. Even the best regulated demagogue
will trip himself up occasionally.

1t is safe to say that the house will
agree TO the amendment and that the

gresham Smith is entitled to a large

anceship with department heads and
employees and general knowledge of
how to pull the wires for the people
at home gained from twenty-five
years connection with the national
congress. makes him a powerful fac
tor In the fight for good roads. The
passage OF this bill means still more

HON. d. v. DAVIS SPEAKS HERE.

Hon. ID. W. Davis OF American Falls,

Odd Fellows hall Thursday evening
with a message full OF import to the
citixens OF this state.

Of his candidacy for the Republican

ply to the administration of the state
OF Idaho the same principles employ
ed in banking or business and there
would be different reports coming from
the state house at Boise. Reinvest-
ment fs the secret OF the growth of
the big corporations.
II have criticised to some extent the
lack OF system In the state land de-
partment. The balance provided for
farm mortgages is not kept active
and there is such a delay In the
handling OF applications for loans that
II is often many months before the
applicant knows whether the applica-
ton will be accepted. In the
time these funds are idle and there is
no excuse for this idleness.
The interest IN the state loans
should be collected by the tex coAec-
tor OF the county In which the loan is
made and the money turned over to
the state without expense to the state.
This would relieve the state of the
embarrassment Of having land SOLD
for taxes upon which state loans have
been made.
The state Of Idaho is able to take
care OF two and one-half million dol
lars OF farm loans. These funds
could be provided by the cash on
hand and the sale of the school bonds
that the state holds. the sales to be
made as rapidly as the funds are need
ed to meet the demands for loans. Do
not understand me to be opposed to
the state buying school bonds, for |
believe this plan to be of much advan-
tage to the districts where small is
sues are offered. But whenever we
have an accumulation OF these bonds
until the aggregate is attractive to
some bond-buytng concern, l hold the
bonds should be sold II we have a de-
mand for this money for farm loans.
AT the present time the sale Of such
bonds would bring to the state a large
sum In premiums and accrued inter-
the interest rate to the school
district would not be changed but the
to the farmers who would bor-
row this money would be a large item.

week In this district, visiting In KEEL

the northern part of the state In the
interests OF his candidacy for the Re-
publican nomination for governor.
This senator Ia no stranger In this part
OF the state, as he has been here a
number OF times, both on political and
business engagements. During his
stay he was given a trip thuogh the
Bunker Hill mine and for a part OF
the day forgot about his bank and
farm In south Idaho and became one
OF the real "muckers" Of the Occur
d'Alene mines. 1t was not exactly a
new experience for Senator Davis for
20 years x he was working his way
up from pit boy to foreman In one OF
tho big coal mining camps of the west,
hence he knows something about the
mining business.
"They don't mine like they did 25
and 30 years ago." said Mr.. Davis,
when he came out OF the big tunnel.

Mr.. Wilson's S Tariff Commission.
OFrom The Philadelphia Prcssl

From The philadelphia Prose-
Mr.. Wilson's advocacy of a tariff commits
sion at this time is for election purposes
only. He seeks 10 capitalize for himself
sentiment that exists in the country for such
a body. He would give the name, but not
the substance. The kind Of commission
that he will appoint if Congress does his
bidding is not at all what is wanted by
those who are demanding the creation of
such body. 1t will not give them that for
which they ask. 1t will be a sham and
mockery. and the hollowness of it will be
very clear as time goes on. And Mr.. Wilson
has so poor an opinion Of the intelligence Of
the American people as to think that they
will not see the deception, but will believe
that they have been given the genuine
article.
He has no intention Of giving to the coun-
try real tariff commission, a body which
will aid in the construction Of tariff law
for the benefit Of this country. lie practi-
cally so states in what he says in the letter
TO Mr. Kitchin Face to face with the knowl-
edge that his tariff law is anathema in all
parts of the United States, and that the
voters eager to pay their respects 10 the
White House author of it, he now seeks TO
becloud the situation by his very tardy ad-
vocacy of tariff commission lie hopes in
this way to raise fog and to make the
voters believe that through such commission
all tariff mistakes can be rectifed. But the
scheme will not avail. 1t is too hmsy;
through it can be seen his real motive And
that motive is to turn TO his selfish political
account the sincere sentiment there is in the
country for tariff commission. but not the
kind that Woodrow Wilson would give That
kind would merely seek to perpetuate the
present tariff misit. that is neither a source
of protection nor of revenue.
