Argued With Washington

When the land for the present cap
ital was being secured the commission
ers appointed by President Washington
found it hard to persuade some of the
local landholders to part with their
fields. In Walks About Washington
an old story good enough to be true is
told about one David Burns, a canny
Scot, who held out so long that Prcsi-
dent Washington personally undertook
his conversion
But for this opportunity, Mr.. Burns,
you might have died poor tobacco
planter" said the president.
AYE, mon," snapped Burns, "and
had We no married the Wilder Gusts,
wi all her nagurs, ye'd ha' been Il land
surveyor the moo and mighty poor
ane at that"
However, when he learned that un-
less he accepted the liberal terms of
fered him his land would be con-
1emned and seized at an appraisal
probably much lower Burns met the
president in quite another mood ana to
the final question, "Wcll. sir, what
have you concluded to dor astonisheI
every one by his prompt response:
"Whate'cr your excellency wad haze
me-
On one of his fields now stands the
White House, and an adjacent lot be-
came Lafayette square,

Washington

MO mists of years can hide him,
~ No shadow Of the night.
He stands, a glowing vision,
Upon a sainted height.
A mighty man, a righteous man,
His name is writ in light.
WHEN icehad locked the valley
w And winds swept TO and fro
And men grew faint with hunger
He knelt in drifted SNOW,
This tender man, this loving man,
And prayed in bitter woe.
HIS name is shrined by Free.
Al dom.
No name is held more dear.
His glory shines the clearer
With every passing year
A sainted fame, a deathIess
name,
A soul we all revere.

Severe Cold Quickly Cured.

"On December first / had a very
severe cold or attack of the grip as it
may be, and was nearly down sick in
bed" writes o j. Metcalf. Weather
by, Mo. L bought two bottles of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy aud it
was only few days until l was com
pietely restored to health. l firmly
believe that Chamberlaln's Cough
Remedy is one of the very best medi-
cines and will know what to do when
L have another cold" Obtainable

THE Idaho legislature may

HE ldanO legislature may
yet see its way clear to pre-
vent Japanese from buying
land in the state. 1t is a step
toward ultimate national
safety, if it is deemed wise to
take the step at the present
rather critical time in inter
national politics. This should
be kept as nearly as possible
a white mans country. A
Heterogeneous population with
attendant racial antipathetic
proclivitles can scarcely be
depended upon to make a
strong, united nation in time
OF national peril. Neither the
Indian problem, now practi-
cally solved, nor the negro
problem, still unsolved, could
be as serious as the problem
that is coming with the estab-
lishment of Japanese colonies
on American soil.

CONGRESS may soon have
the opportunity to say wheth-
er Idaho shall be divided into
two states. The organization
of the new state would mean
two more western members in
the United States senate.
Then the question arises,
would the eastern senators
view with pleasure this west
ern accession of strength in
that august body? But then
the day may come when an
eastern state will want to be
divided.

WIrH the discovery of a
doubt as to whether it has
legally drawn pay, and other
little unforeseen difficulties
continually arising, the legis-
lature has not completed any

date of adjournment is only

"Father George" Not an Admiral.
A Barnegat schOolma'am had been
telling her pupils something about
George Washington, and finally she
.Sked
Can any one now tell me which
Washington was-a great general or
treat admiralT'
The small son of a fisherman raised
his hand, and she signaled him to
speak.

he Delaware. ana no great admiral
would put out from shore standing up

viduals, however, seem to be getting
in wrong at home and Zimmerman and
other officials are said to be slated for
early retirement. Bernstorff, who was
given war decoration by the Kaiser
upon his return from this country for
foment!ng strikes, ammunition plant
explosions and secret plans to set
Mexico and Japan at our heels, is
slated for a prominent place in the
government. 1t is said that he has
the favor of the Kaiser is a great
measure.
The Americans throughout the Unit.
ed States who are of German birth or
parentage are beginning to appreciate
hat this nations interests are their
own, and that, especially if they own
property, the longer the war lasts or
she greater the German successes, the
more it will cost them, as we'll as the
est Of US, in money and lives.
The arrogant attitude of the Kaiser
and his friends in Germany, despite
such universal suffering, is also telling
on persons who have been at times
deep sympathizers with the Central
Powers. By the time our national
armies are in the field, there is every
reason to believe that all nationalities
represented in this country will have
sunk their individual sympathies in a
whole-souled prayer for the success
Of our armies and the future safety of
our nation.

George Lynn, local lawyer, seems
bent on laying new political foun-
dation among certain classes in this
county by his attitude on the gov
ernment's war policy. He is bowling
against the selective draft to all that
will listen, and in other ways trying
to create bond of sympathy between
himself and persons who are pretty
much pro-German in their sympathies
no doubt for political reasons. Es-
pousing the Nonpartisan league cause
to secure future political support of
the farmers and railing at the govern
ments war plans to corral the pro-
German support seems to be his chief
aim in life just at the present tine
Whether or not his program will suffi.
GENTLY whitewash his political record
to land him something next year re.
mains to be seen.

Over in the First Congressional
District there has just been special
election to choose a congressman to
fill the vacancy made by the death of
the late Fl. G. Helgeson.
F. C. Baer, former Beach cartoonist,
was elected on the endorsement of the
Nonpartisan League, running little
less than four thousand ahead of the
republican candidate, o. B. Burtness,
of Grand Forks. The election of Baer
however, isn't the notable thing about
the election. The political juggling
of Gov. L. ]. Frazier, and his associ-
ates and the later decision of the su-
preme court are worthy of some study.
First of all, when the governor was
asked as to when the special election
would be called by him, he answered
that it would probably not be until
fall
The present primary election laws
do not make provisions for elective
machinery in case of special election.
The attorney general held that all can
didates must run by petition. How
ever, all the election laws give the va
rious political parties the right to
party columns on the general election
ballots. Hence, the republicans in the
First district were at loss as to just
how to proceed to secure republican
candidate. Finally, Gunder Olson,
national committeeman, issued call
for convention. The date was set
for June Goth. Delegates in each
county were chosen, and the conven-
ton held according to call.
The law requires that petitions must
be filed with the secretary of state
thirty days before election, and, after
the date of the republican convention
was announced in the First district
Frazier Immediately issued his pro-
lamation calling the election. Instead
of waiting until fall, as he had pre-
viously signified, he selected date
less than thirty days after the republi-
can convention. Hence, according tc
the existing law, it was impossible tc
file the necessary petitions for the
candidate thirty days before the date
set by the governor for the election
In the meantime, several republicans
had filed petitions to get on the ballot
At the convention one of these candi.
dates was nominated. The others
then attempted to withdraw. The
secretary Of state refused to recog
nize the nominee as the republican
candidate in making up the ballots
and also refused to allow the other car
didates to Withdraw because the thirt,
