Our New State.

The proposed new state, which is to
be cut off from south Idaho, will have
a wealth of $l60, 600, 600 and popu-
lation of 150 600 1t would have an
area of approximately 36, 500 square
miles, and because Of its compact
geographical features would be less
expensive for the people in the new
state than under the present plan
with its isolation and heavy cost of
government. This will leave south
Idaho a state with about 4S, 28S square
miles, a population of 225, 600, and a
wealth of $240, 900, 900 of taxable
property, leaving two compact states,
each having a different agricul-
tural environment, and each having
different lines of industry. South
Idaho has irrigated lands We have
no interest in common along this line,
and their laws do not interest north
Idaho. So different Is our climate
and general conditions and industries
that we have to enact two sets of
laws for the government our state as
it now is. State division is a move
in the interest of both sections of our
state, and will bereit both. All
these years the people have been try.
ing to unite territory that the Creator
has divided by unsurmour able bar.

Under German Rule.

Harness: lie CUR (says Hide and
Leather) is authority for the state
ment that the Germans in the invaded
territory of Belgium ard Northern
France are levying tax on dogs.
This tax amounts to thirty marks per
heed. Whosoever is not willing to
pay this tax is compelled to deliver
his dog to the military authorities,
whereupon it is killed. The skins
are transported to the German glove
factories while, from the grease oil
is made for motor cars. In the region
of Lille several cars full of dogskins
have been seen on their way to Ger
many.

Good Roads and Labor.

CdIcn your loh DelOre you skin
him., is good advice. With the
movement for good roads in Clear
water county starts movement among
laboring people, no doubt with the
best intentions. demanding certain
standards of wages, $3 per day for
eight hours, we believe, coupled with
the threat that unless the demands are
guaranteed the laboring people of the
county will organize and defeat any
proposed bond issue for good roads
This seems most peculiar move on
the part of mel who want plenty of
employment, for if the building of
roads is to benefit any class it GER
tainly is the laboring man. The
greater part of any funds raised from
road bonds must go directly to labor,
and there is no probability that con-
tractors, during the road building
periods, could get labor for less than
SO. Nor does any citizen of the
county wart those who labor on the
proposed roads to receive less than a
fair, just wage. At the meeting of
the Orofino Commercial Club Wednes-
day evening the business men discuss
ed this move and A. E. Holmberg,
who was interested in road contracts
last fall in Washington, said they
paid So for eight hours, and could not
get men for less. Labor is not plen-
tiful at this time. 1t will not be
plentiful during the coming year.
Road contractors must pay the price
or get no men. The Republican
urges the laboring men of our
country to be fair with themselves in
this matter. If business men and
property owners are willing to vote a
tax on themselves to employ labor,
laboring men should be the last to
put any obstacle in the way. If
labor wants good wages let it do what
it can to create demand for labor,
giving labor a chance. If labor is
plentiful wages are never good.
When workingmen must beg for
employment they take what they are
offered. They must eat. If several
employers want the same man at the
same time the workingman is inde-
pendent and can demand his rights.
The cost of living is abnormal. So
per day is little more than an exist
ence if man has family to sup
port. The Orofino Commercial Club
realizes this, and the sentiment of
the meeting was that every reason
able effort should be made to provide
our laboring men with steady employ
ment.
So far as wages are concerned il is
mat er entirely outside the power
ef either tie business men or the
county authorities. If we orga 1ize n
district and vote ponds we must fol-
low the law governing the organiz-
alton Of such districts. The COVER
nor will appoint three highway COM
missioners, who will employ a COM
petent engineer. and contractors will
be compelled to pay such wages as
competent labor demands at the time.
Labor received under contract road
construction. 5 per S-hour shift last
year. and will no doubt be az high

The money that has been wasted ea ch
year in Clearwater county filling up
mudholes, repairing our old dirt
roads, filling chuck holes, and tenn
porary improvements will more than
pay interest on bonds sufficient to
build the proposed system of preman-
ent hard-surfaced roads. Think this
over before you decide to fight high
way bonds. Let US stop this perpet-
ual waste Of road taxes.

That A-dam-son law, which was to
forever solve and settle lapor disputes
between railroads and certain of their
employees, appears to be the most un.
popular bill ever passed thru congress
The iiremen and engineers want law
that permits them TO bleed the rail.
roads, and get tie money, but object
to law that takes from the employe
his right to strike and tie up traffic.
The Adamson law was fake to start
with. and we have sneaking hunch
that President Wilson knew he was
slipping something over at the time.

A day in camp dawns clear and

it's clarion voice and sounds a reyer-

Using of the Vail agricultural school

such material has some news value
