The

Prayer

We who are mothers of men,
We who have borne our sons.
To take up the sword again
And fight in the roar Of guns.
And We who will some day bear
Sons Of those sons, in pain,
We make to the land our prayer,
May It not be in vain.
For We give our sons to war
And we bid our lovers 30,
In q cause worth fighting for
To fate that we may not know,
And then. dim eyed. we turn
70 the myriad tasks that wait,
Though our hearts may ache and
yeArn,
That Is the womans fate.
In office and farm and shop
We take up the tools OF trade.
For the labor must not stop
Nor the work be long delayed,
II the burdens Of toll we bear
While the man goes forth and fights.
Surely our plea Is fair
That we share his rights!
Il we are worthy of trust
To take up the work men do.
Surely it is but just
That We draw mems wages, teo;
We give Of our strength and nerve
BY a passionate fervor stirred,
And 80. in the land We serve.
Let our voice be heard!
Mothers and maids and wives
Give IN the land we love-
The light and Joy of our lives
For the flag that files above,
We bend to our double task
With q thrill Of faith intense.
And justice is all we ask
As a recompense!

I. w. w. PROPAGANDIST is
IN CUSTODY AT MOSCOW

MOSCOW, Ida-Confronted by re-
volvers in the hands of Chief of Po-
lice Stillinger and Officer Summer
field, at his hotel early Friday morn
ing, A. L. Carpenter put up hard
fight to avoid arrest. He was over
powered, handcuffed and placed in
the city Jail under special guard. He
came to the city from Spokane on
Sunday, and at once began the sys-
tematic distribution of tracts. In
his room was found a loaded revol-
yer and a great mass of wobbly lit
erature. Technically, he is held for
having concealed weapons. +
Three l. w. w. organizers and ag-
tators, T. E. Hawkins, H. E. Herd
and Charles Clifford, prisoners in the
county Jail since the early summer,
are to go on trial in the district
court before Judge Steele next MoR-
day morning, on the charge of being
members of an organization that
teaches and practices criminal syndi-
calism. ..
It is realized here that desperate
fight is to be made by the |. W. w.
to save the men from conviction, and
it is we'll understood that Carpenters
propaganda was in the interest OF
these men. He will be held until the
district court trials are completed.

A CAPTAIN OF THE COMMIssARY

The county agents constitute
American agriculture's first line Of
defense.
They are the men in the first line
trenches, zealously guarding the
farmers interests and bringing to
his attention all that is Of imme-
date practical value in our scientific
teaching, and fortifying this with re-
suits from the experience Of the most
successful hard-headed practical
farmers of each county.
At time like the present, when
the nation Is engaged in great war
wherein food production Is of vital
military Importance, the value of the
county agent to the government can
hardly be over emphasized.
Since the United States became a
belligerent, the county agent has
done valiant war service. In coun-
ties having agents, it was possible
during the past summer to secure
truly wonderful results, in quickly
and adequately meeting a difficult
labor situation; in locating available
seed stocks; in arranging for farm
credits for the purchase of machin-
cry and fertilizer; in supplying trac-
tor power, and in other forms of
effective leadership, all contributing
to great increase in the production
of spring wheat, oats, corn, potatoes
and other food crops; and, finally in
assisting In facilitating marketing.
Some of the most important bat
ties of this war will be won during
1918 in the burrows and fields of
America. The county agents will be
the captains of the soldiers of the
commissary who will make these vic
tories possible.

THE NEW LIGHTING SYSTEM
FOR RESIDENCE DISTRICT

For several months construction
work has been in progress installing
a new lighting system for the resi-
dence district at Blackfoot, and with
the present week 1t Is expected the
work will be completed.
The Idaho Power companys light
ing contract expired two years ago,
and an offer was made to improve
the system and supply more light
for the same money, or to greatly
increase the lighting at an increased
expense. The administration then
in charge Of the city business did
not reach conclusions In the matter,
and their successors in office entered
into a contract for the system just
being completed.
1t consists of overhead cables, and
lights at most Of the intersections
of streets, making about 100 lights
of three sizes, 100, ESQ and 400
candle power. They hang twenty
feet above the ground, are of the
open. or direct type, having no shade
or globe to subdue the sharp rays.
It diffuses light that is better than,
starlight, DuL uOI 81 uIl6AC dS Luli
moonlight. 1t is bright enough to
read by for some distance about the
lamp, but sheds only dim light at
the distance of half a block.
The Idaho Power company have
used in it's construction in addition
to the old materials, 325 poles at a
cost of from $500 to So each; 1900
feet, or 1850 pounds of number six
copper wire, costing from 80 to Al
cents a pound, $1,000 feet of steel
supporting cable, and employed a
gang of men at wages ranging from
$4.25 to $3.50 per day.
The cost of labor and materials
has advanced sharply since the ex-
piration of the old lighting contract,
and will probably advance still fur,
Their. The completion of the sys-
tenn for lighting the residence Sec
tions comes at an opportune time to
allow people to Judge whether they
wish the same thing or some differ
ent system for the business section,
a decision to be acted upon the eigh-
tenth of next month, and treated
at some length in other articles in
this paper.
