INCONSISTENCY

What glazing inconsistency to ex-
empt beer from the prohibition actl
Is it done to conserve the liquor
revenue?
Hardly. Whisky pays bigger revenue
than beer
Is it done to conserve the grain?
The answer is, there is twice as
much grain consumed in the manu-
facture of beer as there is in the manu-
facture of whisky.
Is it done to break the grip the Ii
quor interests hold on the legislative
department of government?
The brewers are the politicians of
the trade.
1t is they who corrupt elections and
manipulate politics to their own silf-
ish ends.
Is it done to concede to any we'll
defined wish of the people?
This cannot be for there never has
been a state enacting prohibition law
taht has exempted beer. Washington,
Oregon, Arizona, Colorado, Arkansas
after having adopted prohibition and
trying it year submitted a PROPOSE
ton to the people to exempt beer and
this proposition was defeated in each
instance by an increased majority.
Is it done on the theory that beer
is not an intoxicating drink?
Scientists tell us and criminal court
records attest the truth that beer is
more brutalizing, more degrading than
whisky.
There can be no plausible excuse for
favoring thesbrewer in temperance leg
slation.
The enactment of a bill exempting
,eer would give the people of our coun-
,ry a better conception of the strangle-
hold the brewer has on government,
lad be victory for the kaiser.-The

Trench Tales

A ouglltful-looking Austrian sat
UP in his cot when asked to tell some
of his experiences.
ITO hear some people talk, you'd
think we liked fighting for fighting S
sake That's pure nonsense. You
can't go on fighting and not get fed-up
with the beastliness of it, but you can
take it from me that we're in to see
the complete finish. If we could get
all that we are fighting for tomorrow, |
bet there isn't a man that wouldn't
welcome peace. But the Germans are
still pretty strong, and if we stopped
now, we'd have the same game in a
few years time. I've got kiddies and
] don't want to think that they might
have to go through all this when they
are grown up. Though | say the Ger
mans are still strong, they're weaken
ing, or I'm very much mistaken. They
are practically hopeless at attacking;
without incense artillery superiority,
they can't move, and they'll never have
that superiority again. Our attacks
now are better than ever they have
been and are made with the smallest
amount of losses possible.

greater proficiency and better under
standing of their men.
An experienced British general writ
ing on the training of some OF these
new divisions, said that mass OF
civilians had been transformed In less
than eight months into an army which
had more practical training for war
than it had ever been possible to give
to troops in England before. There was,
he added, feeling of confidence In all
ranks, due partly to the organizing
power of a short-handed stan, but
chiefly to the keenness Of all ranks TO
make themselves fit for the front. The
experiences here recorded are highly
suggestive of our own experiences and
they indicate the methods we shall
have to follow in creating armies to
meet our regular requirements.

THE SHAME OF SPOKANE

Spokane should bow her head in shame in the light
what is going the northwest these days. That
city is regular plague spot heSpresent industrial
crisis the center and of 1. w. w. activities.
the poison anarchy and treason is brewed and
from there is injected into the lumber camps, the
mines the orchards and the farms
1t is a time for plain talk 1t is imperative that
Idaho speak out decision. Her industries
in the north threatened before Alleged
paid agents of the German junkers going about
preaching sedition anarchy and black crime
Industry crippled property destroyed human life is
placed in jeopardy.
And the fountain of all this brood of criminaty,-
as this section of the northwest in
volved-is the city Spokane. Every hellish W. W.
plot is Matched in the I. w. W. headquarters in Spo
kane. Every time W. w. criminal is run to earth
it is at learned that he halls from Spokane Every
time l. w. W. criminal needs help to from the
grip of the Spokane for lawyers and for
cash
This situation is all the more damnable when
sidered from the viewpoint of north Idaho.
Spokane a city has been built up largely from
the, wealth of north Idaho The wealth of the Occur
dAlenes and of the pine forests, the power of the

Fish should always be fried like
doughnuts, in deep fat. Bacon drip

Drowned, and then removed and al

squares of delicious food
