The American has wondered and
is still wondering about the inside
facts concerning the non-partisan
League which is being organized in
Idaho. According to a statement of
one of the organizers, the league
now owns 81 Ford cars in Idaho and
has 81 organizers in the field. AS
this means an investment of about
$4,000 and daily expense of prob
ably $4,000, farmers may reasonab-
ly inquire whether they are footing
the bills or not 1t is not reasonable
to suppose that an investment Of
thousands of dollars and the SER
vices of more than a score of men
have been thrown into Idaho merely
on account of the healthy climate
The fact that the work Of the league
has its chief endorsement in the
state from discredited politicians
and disgruntled newspapers is more
than enough to arouse suspicion Of
colored individual in the fuel rick

GETTING EVEN

Last summer w. G.. Sch oltz, the
then head Of the farm markets bu-
reau, campaigned early and late for
Governor Alexander. He did moro
effective work for Nose than did any
other agency. Scholtz, before being
made head Of the farm markets bu-
reau by Nose, was farm editor of the
weekly edition of the Capital News,
Bronxon's as private secretary in ex-
change for publicity in the Boise or
gan which Bronxon edited all during
Moses first term as governor.
Scholtz wanted to get some bills
through the legislature last winter
that would be Of real benefit to the
farmer, not bunk" bills such as the
governor wanted to put over, and he
and the governor fell out over It,
The result was that Scholtz' resigna-
ton which heahad signed in advance
of taking his position was flashed on
him by the governor and he was to
all events and purposes Stirred" He
was succeeded by Speaker Alfred
who Nose figured could be of more
service to him than could Scholtz,
since Alfred had made capable
speaker and had attracted consider
able attention as strong and new
contender in Democratic lists.
Scholtz got mad And now he is
preparing his revenge. The Farm
ers' National Nom Partisan League
has mushroomed over from N. Oak
where 1t has been electing governors
and congressman, county coroners
and road overseers, and Scholtz is

mer for his old boss. He is out for

The people OF the United States
will both suffer and learn by the

decentralization OF business and in

all know. They will learn that war
is just what Gen. Sherman said it

pie have not stood in need OF some
practical lessons in their viewpoint,
their habits and their lives? Who can
say it was not necessary to call halt
on some OF the crazy things we have
been doing? We have been flying
high and complaining because we
could not fly higher. We have taken
on a great national crouch and the

THE WINGS OF THE MORNING

Congress has passed the great av-
iation bill, with its appropriation of
more than six hundred million dol
lars, and thousands of American me-
chanics have sprung to the task of
building such an air fleet as the
world has not yet seen, and, until
this war broke out, none but poets
had imagined.
1t is in every way fitting that we
should do this. AS we have lifted
our cause above material gain-the
lust of conquest, the desire for trade
expansion and enlarged boundaries
! so we are going to lift our first
great military effort above the blood
soaked ground into the blue heaven;
and as we invented the flying ma
chine, SO now we are going to make
it the most terribly efficient engine
of destruction.
Germany laughs at the idea that
we can build a great air fleet In time
to be of any use. Have her leaders
never heard how Perry got a fleet
on Lake Erie and what he did with
it? To be sure, the task is Job for
a giant. 1t will be very hard to get
the right kind of wood properly sea-
soned for the frames. 1t must be
straight-grained. flawless spruce, of
the kind that firemen's ladders are
made of, and it must be air dried.
This means at least a year or two
of seasoning; you can dry it in a
day or two in the kiln, but that
makes It brittle and useless. Ex-
pert lumbermen and woodworkers
are securing the country for the
right kind of stock, and they will
Eyn4 a. RFhnsn
Norway pine will do nearly az well
as the spruce; and we can also fall
back on the inexhaustible western
fir, the stiffest wood that grows and
one of the strongest.
Months ago the aviation board
took up the problem Of engines with
true American daring. The French
have designed and built marvelously
efficient aeroplane engines. Why
not copy them? Because they are
complicated and require a great deal
of hand labor by skillful machinists
We want something simple, strong,
efficient. something that can be
standardized and turned out by ma.
chinery. We believe we already have
1t, for the automobile board called
together the greatest automobile en-
CINE designers in the country and put
the problem up to them. In a few
weeks they had designed and built
the new engine, American from
drawing board to installation. It is
now undergoing its tests.
The men who are to sail and fight
in our new navy of the air are com
ing, too. In half a dozen aviation
training schools they are learning
the grim business on which they are
soon to embark. Talk with any one
of them a few minutes, and think
what their brothers have already
done in France. and you will hold
up your head and thank God that
tho spirit OF America is still alive
