The twice-a-week Twin Falls times. (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1916-1918, 1917-07-26

That the military force of Russia is
so disorganized and broken in spirit
as to cease to be an inn ortant factor
in the world war. seems now to be
conceded. The offensive taken early
this month, by which the hopes of the
allies were so greatly revived, was iso-
lated and spasmodic. Without govern
mental strength and stability behind
it, the reaction brings general and in
glorious retreat.
If this view must be accepted and
present conditions continue, the
United States can hope for nothing
less than long, bloody and wasting
participation in a struggle for right
and justice only to be won, at this
time, by such sacrifices upon our part.
The outlook is most serious, and as
President Wilson says it will require
not only the best efforts of our army
and navy, but the unflinching faith
and courage of the entire nation.

is 1T COUNTY DIVISION AGAINg

To the judicial observer, the CON
sideration given by our friends at
Bull to the county bond issue propo-
sition has seemed to be without open
mind or free will.
In the first place their choice Of
subjects and line of talk always led
away from, instead of towards, the
only real issues; namely. what will
satisfy the Bull district. and can the
county authorities accede thereto?
They expressed a burning desire for
good roads, as a general proposition,
they also expressed doubt of their
ability to carry the twice beaten bond
proposition in their own district; but
when it came to joining in an effort
to float county road bonds-well, then
their expression became clogged-it
evidently had a string on it!
That such was the case is not only
evidenced by their attitude during the
numerous and extended conferences,
patiently sought again and again by
the Twin Falls contingent in the in
terest of harmony as we'll as of ac-
complishment, but is fully proved
when they finally declined to accept d
proposition which conceded substan-
TALLY everything they had the nerve
to ask as condition precedent
1t being demonstrated that Bull
was tied, and proposed to stay tied, it
becomes interesting to look for the
string-not a difficult quest, we fear.
At all events it seems to have been
simplified when one of their most in
%fluential citizens, at a gathering for
the consideration of this very matter
and after studying the possibilities
over a county map, drew his finger
from north to south through the cen
ter and said: This gentlemen, is in.
my opinion, the only solutioni"
We believe it is more in sorrow than
in anger that the people who have had
at heart the interests of the entire
county are now forced to abandon
hope of sympathy or assistance from
the Bull leadership-we say leader
ship" because it is hardly possible
that any where near all the voters
of the district can fully sympathize
with the selfish plans and purposes of
the banking and real estate interests
of that village. So far as the rest Of
the county is concerned, they will be
compelled for the present at least, to
say with the prophet of old, "Eph-
riam is joined to his idols; let him
alonei"

Nldlt AolduNs 0dl1 July -o'
Editor Times:-Of the number Of
men from Twin Falls and vicinity en-
listing in the marine corps zone were
turned down. All of the boys are as
signed to companies and quarters and
every one seems to be enjoying the
strenuous training.
Truman Boyd, Sidney Graves and
Charles DeRuisseaux are in company
b. Farris of Murtaugh was assigned

letter, Darrell Dwight and Ralph
Morse were assigned to company c..
Sutmiller, II. A.. Smith and McVey of

Owing to the fact that all outgoing
mail is strictly censored, it will be
impossible to give out any informa-
ton as to the number of men, the
movement of troops, or anything
which would be of any value to the
enemy.
We are drilling about five hours
each day and the remainder is spent in
exercise such as Swedish, and in
cleaning our clothes and equipment.
The discipline is very rigorous but
not at all disagreeable. Anyone who
can't stand to be "cussed" a little had
better stay out Of the marine corps
for we get it every "twice in a while"
On the other hand, il there are n
young men in Twin Falls who desire
to become physically perfect and
serve their country in the company Of
the %cleanest set of men in the entire
service, enlist in the United States

most certain for those men who take
an interest in their work and who can
adapt themselves to existing condi-
tons.
There are several of us who will
represent c company in the signal
corps, Dwight, McVey and Morse.
Mrs. r. o. Boyd very beautifully en-
tertained the Twin Falls boys at the

The Commercial Club
President Resigns
Resignation Accepted by the Board
OF Directors ut a Meeting Called
Tuesday to Consider Same.

The subjOined correspondence will
explain itself. Mr.. Hackman has GER
tainly shown an interest in the well
fare and progress of the community
only equalled by zeal, energy and re-
sourcefulness with which he sought
to promote them. And the TIMES but
repeats an expression again and again
heard on our streets when it expresses
regret at the action thus taken.
To the Board of Directors of the Twin
Falls Commercial Club.
Gentlemen: | hereby tender my
resignation as president of the club
and will thank you to promptly accept
the same.
/ wish to express my sincere appre-
citation of the many acts of friendship
shown ne by each member of the
board. 1t has been a great pleasure to
be associated with you N the work
of trying to do things for the up
building of the community, l wish for
YOU and my successor in office the
very greatest degree of success and
as an individual member of the club,
it will be a pleasure to me to do any
thing that | can if called upon to as
sist in the work.
I tender my resignation at this time
because it has just been brought to
my attention that some have felt that
in my efforts to serve the public as
president of the club, | have aimed to
use those efforts as an advertisement
and for private business purposes.
Such a course is contrary to the ethics
of my profession and is likewise con-
trary to my Owl views as to the
course that an attorney should pursue.
The only way therefore to remove a
criticism of that sort is for me to de-
cline to further show activity in pub
lie matters as president of the club.
With such splendid natural re-
sources as this section has and with
the vigorous and splendid type of
manhood of which this community is
composed, l sincerely hope that
through the club a unity of action may
be brought about that will strengthen
this community as one of progressive
and liberal views.
Very respectfully,
TURNER X. HICKMAN.
