Russian naval units in the northern

The first state to have its institu-
tions conducted on strictly business
and non-partisan basis will be Kansas.
Governor Capper has signed the state
manager bill and non-partisan board
Of administration will soon appoint a
manager to take charge Of all state
institutions now bossed by political
boards. The manager also will be
purchasing agent for the state. Kan
sas expects greater economy and
more efficiency in the management of
all state institutions. The manager is
to be picked irrespective Of political
affiliations or business associations.
He will be held accountable for every
cent spent and what the state gets
for it. Everyone interested in good
government will watch Kansas more
closely in the future. The same idea
would be splendid one for county
Gem county would be
whole lot better off if its business
we're conducted on the same lines.

ton would do away with that. He
has learned that the most beautiful
natural scenery in the world is in the
interior of Alaska, and with his in
vention that can be turned into a win
ter or summer resort whenever de-
sired. Then the Emmett country will
be the Banana Belt in fact, and there
will be no more danger of frosts kill
ing the fruit crop. Then he began
to reel off figures showing the amount
of sun heat that is wasted every year
and what it would mean when it is
stored and kept where it can be turn
ed loose whenever needed. l didn't
exactly question Jim's invention, but
just incidentally remarked: Jim,
what did you do with the perpetual
motion machine that you told me 20
years ago you was going to have in
successful operation within a month?
That machine said Jim, was the
greatest invention of the age up to
that time. The only thing it lacked
was one weight that was to counter
balance another weight that started
the machine going. l had some trou-
BILE getting that weight just the right
size; never could get any machine
shop to understand just how it ought
to be made. These machinists either
haven't any brains worth mentioning
or else, as l suspect, they were stand
ing in with the trusts and knew that
when my machine got into operation
it would put every trust in the United
States out of business. But this heat
storage invention is bigger thing
than the perpetual motion machine
and so | have given that up for the
present.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The congress which the president
has convoked for April 2 will deal
with fact already accomplished. A
state Of war exists by action of Ger
many itself. The United States has
attacked no German ships. 1t has
taken no German life. Germany has
sunk American ships and killed Ameri-
cans by the hundred. This is what the
new Congress will be called on to re-
cognize. The country knows how sin
cere has been the Presidents desire
for peace and how earnestly he has
labored TO avert war. But now that
war is forced upon the Nation there
will be no hanging back from the
Presidents appeal. In time like
this every loyal American lays aside
his partisanship in support Of the man
in Washington who carries the flag!
Uncle Sam will take hand in the
war. That goes without saying. 1t
will take little time yet, but this
country will "get in" and play its
own part. That will be, in a word, to
bust the German U-boat campaign |
completely. Once forced in, against
its will, whatever else is desirable
this country will do, even to equipp-
ing and transporting an army of a
million men. But with the U-boat
effort broken up, not much else will |
be necessary or desired.

nation. When they pass that, the
highest on the list will be certified to
the president and he will choose from
the eligible list. All of which means
nothing. The Democrats now have
all the postoffices and they will keep
them for at least four years longer.

II want every boy here 70 be 100
per cent patriotic" Cardinal Gibbons
said to convention of boys the other
day. Patriotism is subject that
should be taught in every school in
the land. But it should be taught by
teachers who know what it means.
Patriotism is sense of identity with
the nation, spirit Of the common
welfare and Of service of the nation.
Not in war simply. But in peace. In
a word, it is unseifish nigh mindedness
as citizen. There is narrow and
spurious definition of patriotism, but
it is put forward by unselfishness and
for Interested and Interior purposes,
and it is not the true article that
American schools should instil in their
pupils.

The fellows who seven or eight
years ago inaugurated Emmett's Lee
ture Course and, joined by others who
came after, have stood stood by it
through all the lean years, going
down into their pockets to make up
deficiencies and giving unstintingly
of their time and labor, must have
felt a thrill of satisfaction Monday
evening when the last number of this
seasons splendid course was conclud-
ed and it was found that not only
had all the debts been paid, but that
there was little nest egg in the trea-
sury as an emergency fund. None of
the committee went into the venture
to make money; their object was to
give to the community entertainments
of an elevating and instructive char
acter at moderate price. That their
efforts are bearing fruit and being APP
preciated is ample remuneration for
the sacrifices Of past years. Each
succeeding year has added to the
standard Of the attractions. For next
year a more marked advance than
ever before has been taken and a
series of attractions of higher grade
than ever before have been secured.
