Fight Looms For Congressman

A Boise dispatch of recent date
says:
A district congressional fight
is shaping itself in Idaho. 1t
will be the first of its kind held
in the history of the state. The
last legislature passed an act d.
viding the state into the First
and Second districts. Heretofore
Idaho has elected her representa-
tives at large, but hereafter it
will elect one from each district.
This will prevent the monopoly
of Congressman by one section
of the state.
The districting of the state was
not an issue prior to the conven-
ing of the legislature. Several
district plans were proposed aft
er the legislature met, all Ringing
on the placing of Ada county, of
which Boise is the capital, and
its neighbor, Canyon, two of the
most populOus counties in the

state. Canyon was included in
the First district and with it
went all of the northern counties.
Ada was made part of the Second
district. The population is equal
Iy divided, the southern district,
however, being the larger as to
territory. Geographically speak
ing diagonal line was run across
the state from a point about
where the Montana division of
the Oregon Short Line enters
Montana southwest to the Idaho
Oregon state line directly west
of Caldwell. North of this line
is the First district; south of it
the Second district.
Both of these districts are rep
resented in the lower house.
Burton L. French resides at Mos
COW and Addison T. Smith at
Twin Falls. They will face a
strenuous campaign to succeed
themselves in 1918, for both are
Republicans, and the Democrats
propose a real fight.
There are also signs of keen
competition facing both from
within their own party at the
primary election.
The Democrats have started
the grooming of candidates, Geo.
Weeks, Democratic chairman of
Kootenai county, being one of
them. The Democrats cut down
the pluralities of both French
and Smith at the last general
election to about half their nor
NAL.
In the Second district Harvey
Alfred, former Speaker of the
last House of Representatives, is
the most-talked-of Democrat SO
far. His main opposition will
come from the Non-Partisan
League, because he is an appoin-
tee of Governor Alexander.

The American Red Cross.

Ten million new members in a
week!
This is the goal the American
Red Cross has set for itself in
its Christmas membership cam
paign that was launched Deem
Der 16. Throughout the United
States Red Cross chapters are
preparing for the enrolment of
the new army which is to stand
as the organized support of the
boys in the trenches.
No man is more deeply con-
cerned in the world war than
President Wilson-who is also
president of the Red Cross-and
this is his proclamation:
TOthe People ofthe United States:
"Ten million Americans are in
vited to join the American Red
Cross during the week ending
Christmas eve. The times re-
quire that every branch of our
great national effort shall be 10y
ally upheld, and it is peculiarly
fitting that at the Christmas sea-
son the Red Cross should be the
branch through which your will
ingness to help is expressed.
You should join the American
Red Cross, because it alone can
carry the pledges of Christmas
good will to those who are bear
ing for US the real burdens of
the world war, both in our own
army and navy and in the ma
tions upon whose territory the
issues of the world war are being
fought out. Your evidence of
faith in this work is necessary
for their heartening and cheer.
You should join the Red Cross
because this arm of the National
Service is steadily and efficiently
maintaining its overseas relief in
every suffering land, administer
ing our millions wisely and well,
and awakening the gratitude of
every people.
Our consciences will not let US
enjoy the Christmas season if
this pledge of support to our
cause and the worlds veal is left
unfulflled. Red Cross member
ship is the Christmas spirit in
terms of action"
WOODROW WILSON,
President of American Red Cross.
