HOlSclaw Is Some LAWYER.

Governor Alexander, who visited
St. Maries to Investigate the W w.
situation, conferred with A. A. Hols-
claw, county attorney of Benewah
county, and discovered that Holsclaw
hadn't even read the law against
sabotage. And Hoisclaw will not en-
force the law after it is pointed out
to him. Look at his law enforcement
record in Clearwater county! Hols-
claw followed May Patterson the La
Dukes and the rest of the bootIegging
gang to st. Maries and its a cinch got
every vote that element could cast in
his favor when he ran last fall for
county attorney. Benewah county has
got more coming to it than it can
ever get handed out by the lawless
element now on its hands, Between
the l. w. w. and Holsclaw we'd
rather have the former. To be
cursed with both at the same time is
more than one county can stand.

HELP THE RED CROSS.
DIRTY STREETS AND GERMS
Diseases of the Respiratory Organs
Are Directly Attributable to Un-
Washed Pavements.

Read any metropolitan paper on Sun
day and note the tabulated causes of
deaths during the preceding week. Dis
eases of the respiratory organs lead
all the rest. To city e-.slneer the sig
nilicance of this fact should be APP
parent. Grip colds in general, pneu-
monia, tuberculosis and all the respira-
tory diseases have their origin in
germs. These germs, for the most
part, come from eXpectorated matter
That falls upon streets, there to dry
and be blown about with the dust that
every gust of wind or motorcar sends
upon it's deadly journey, says writer
in Engineering and Contracting.
To apply water effectively in clean
ing pavements 1t Is essential that the
surface be smooth and well crowned.
This condition is not perfectly fulfilled
in 10 per cent of the streets in Amer
lea, at safe guess, and it is not even
approximately fulfilled in 30 per cent
OF the streets. In brief, more than
two-thirds of the streets in American
cities need resurfacing If a marked re-
duction in respiratory diseases Is to be
effected. This does not mean, of course,
that every city is in need of any such
overhauling, but it does mean that the
average city needs it, and it needs II
badly.

Owl Drug Has New Manager.

S. E. Swantek of Lewiston has pur-
chased the controlling interest in the
Owl Drug Company and is now in
charge. Chas. Bennett, retiring
manager, has not yet decided where
he will locate, having a number of
openings offered. He made many
friends during his residence here, and
will carry with him the best wishes of
the community. Under his manage
ment the Owl grew in popularity, its
ice cream and soda fountain develop
ing into very popular resort. Mr..
Bennett came to Orofino expecting to
take over the stock of S. l.. Willis,
the Moscow druggist, but was unable
to do so, and the stock was sold to
Mr.. Swantek. The new manager will
install a fine modern soda fountain
and otherwise improve the store.
Mrs. Swantek has charge of the con-
fectionery and soda fountain depart
ment.

The Fall of a Nation.

The Government in the past has
been more than conservative in buying
supplies for the army, and his is
one reason why it was necessary to
appropriate the vast sum of seven
billion dollars, which bill has recently
been put thru consgres.
Tie troops in New York are now
drilling with wooden guns until they
can receive real ones When Thomas
Dixon showed the volunteers drilling
in his wonderful spectacular play
1.-The Fall of a Nation he was
laughed at for using wooden guns.
1t is remarkable the accuracy with
which 1.-THE Fal! of Nation pre-
dicted the future. Last summer,
when this play was running at the
Liberty Theater in New York at two
dollar prices many booted at the idea
of this country being drawn into this
war; and the idea of spies and the
foreign element plotting against our
Government and the part played by
the pacifcist was laughed at but time
has proven Dixon was right.

wound entirely heals over, the infec-
ton may work until the tree dies or
becomes hollow. The callus is formed
by the cambium tissue or inner bark
that lies between bark and wood. The
old wood itself takes no part in the

They uncover their feet instead. The
Arabs do number of other things
contrary to our custom. They shave

they beckon to a person to come to

Highway Law a Nuisance.

If the people of Clearwater county
could get at the parties guilty of pass
ing the Highway laws of Idaho there
W uld probably be hanging. 1t was
originally bad enough, but the asst
legislature complicated matters still
more by a law that enables one com
munity after mother to create high
ways out of highways, with the re-
suit that it is now impossible, in
Clear water county, to carry on even
necessary road repair. and the situa-
ton is most serious. The resulting
tangle would stump d Philadelphia
lawyer, even if one of the most
learned on earth. Where we're "at,
nobody on earth can tell and the end
is not in sight.
With the last highway election,
creating the Orofino highway, the
Clearwater highway commissioners
automat cally ceased to have jurisdic-
ton, leaving this territory with
out any authority on earth to carry on
york. Ne is this all. There seems
to be no authority with power to take
care of the finances. Warrants
issued by the Clearwater Highway
commissioners are handled by the
bank under a guarantee that amounts
to one signing note for the money,
and it may be a year before the finan-
cial tangle can be Strengthened out.
Under no condition can the Orofno
bridge, today practically a wreck, and
in urgent need of immediate atten-
ton, be repaired, because there is no
board with authority to handle the
work. That is, there is no apparent
way to pay for the repair, and no
bridge company will take the risk
under prevailing conditions. The
bridge must have attention as soon as
the water reaches a summer stage,
and arrangements should be made at
once to have bids on the job. But
where is the money to pay the bill?
Delay may mean the loss of the
bridge with the next high water,
causing loss of S24, 900 structure,
which, at prevailing prices for steel
and labor, will cost considerable more
than $24, 900 to replace.
1t was with hope of holding the
county intact and forever stopping the
cutting up of the county that caused
the people to vote for the Clearwater
highv ay. The last Legislature
spoiled this with a new law, making
it neces sary, in self-protection, tt
ere ate tn Groin highway. But un.
foreseen stumbling blocks make il
practically impossible to operate
Clearwater county under the highway
law, and there is overwhelming senti
ment favorable to the dissolution O.
all the highways, except Pierce, anC
going back to the county unit plan
Most anything will be preferable tt
the present tangle.
And think of the good money W,
have spent holding two highway cleo
tions that have resulted in nothing
but trouble, and promise more trouble
as time goes on! The people are sicl
and tired of the whole mess, an,
would like to meet the original autho
of our fool highway law. 1t is lik,
lot of other new tangled reform
bunk, that sounds fine but won't worl
in practice.

When Soft Metal Cuts Hard.

bar of hard steel is cut rapidly
With Il revolving disk of soft iron.
This is caused by the intense heat
produced by the friction; the heat, be-
ing concentrated at one point on the
steel bar, melts this, while the revolv-
ing disk distributes it over its circum-
ference, which is kept cool by the cur
rent of air. A bar 81 millimeters thick
is cut in two by disk 30 centimeters
