Like Banquo's ghost, the new
state talk down at the legislature
will not down, and instead of one
new state they are now talking
of carving old Idaho into three
parts. Northern members j n
caucus have agreed to hold out
for a new state to be formed
from the ten northern counties,
with Idaho county as the south
boundary, and southern members
are talking of cutting the balance
of the state in half and giving
the Mormons a new state of their
own down in the southeast with
Pocatello as its capital. Personally
we do not care much what the
south does but are strictly in ia
vor of the new state in the north.
This part of the state is entirely
out of harmony with the south
and always will be and we would
have much to gain and nothing to
lose by the change. Let it come
soon.

A BILL WE CAN'T PAY

A ten-year-old boy overheard a
conversation about certain bills
to be paid. and conceived the idea
of making out a bill for his own
services. So the next morning
he laid this statement of account
on his mothers breakfast plate:
Mother owes Willie for carry
ing coal six times, twenty cents;
for bringing water lots of times,
thirty cents; for going ten err
rands, fifteen cents" His mo-
Their read the bill but said nothing
about it. That evening Willie
found on his plate the seventy
five cents and also another bill
which read as follows: Willie
owes his mother for his happy
home for ten years, nothing; for
his food and clothing, nothing;
for nursing him through a long
illness, nothing; total, nothing"
When Willie saw the seventy-fve
cents he was pleased. But when

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1917
WAR CLOUD DARKENS.

Germany has within the past
week declared an absolute block
ade of all English ports and will
try to enforce the blockade with
her merous submarines.
France and Italy will also come
under the blockade to some ex-
tent, but the principal aim is to
starve England into submission
and the German high officials
believe this can be done within
sixty or ninety days. Such a
blockade will of necessity mean
the sinking of practically every
ship that tries to carry supplies
to Europe and falls most heavily
on the neutral nations. The
United States is especially hard
hit by this decision and diplo-
matte relations have been sever
ed with Germany and a message
sent the Kaiser that the sinking
of any ships of this nation, or
peaceful ships carrying citizens
of the United States, would be
considered as sufficient cause for
a declaration of war. Relations
between the two nations are al
most at the breaking point at
this time and it will be no sur
prise should war be declared al
most any day. In the meantime
our ships have been asksd to re-
main out of the blockade zone
andsit is the desire Of President
Wilson, congress and the entire
nation to keep out of war if we
can honorably do so.
With the announcement of the
blockade and the possibility of
war, all munition factories offer
ed their services to the president
to prepare the nation for war and
Henry Ford, the big automobile
manufacturer and a member of
the peace party to visit Europe
last summer, offered to turn over
his entire plant for the manu-
facture of war munitions if nee
essary. The students of several
military schools have already
offered their services to the flag
and recruiting of both marines
and volunteers for the army is
going forward in the eastern
states.
The president has asked the
citizens of the country to refrain
generally from publicly discuss
ing the war situation, in order 10
keep down partisan feeling and
violent outbreaks and the inclin-
alton seems TO be to sit quiet and
not rock the boat, while hoping
that matters may finally adjust
themselves and our country may
not be drawn into war with any
nation.
