AMERICA ENTERS WAR
WITH NOBLE PURPOSE
President Clearly Restatcs Reasons
Which Bring United States to
Fight-Ceuld Not Endure
wrongs of Germany.

Washington, May 22.-No nation
that respected itself or the rights OF
humanity could longer have borne the
overwhelming wrongs that Germany
inflicted upon the United States, Pres
ident Wilson declared in a letter re-
stating the reasons for this nations
entrance into the war, written to Rep
resentative Hefin of Alabama and
made public today at the White
House.
Mr.. Hefin had written to the presi-
dent saying some of his recent utter
ances on the war apparently had caus-
ed confusion over the issue with Ger
many. In restating his position the
president again made It clear that
the United States has no quarrel with
the German people but with an autoc-
racy which acts upon purposes to
which the German people have never
consented
The letter follows:
"It is incomprehensible to me how
any frank or honest person could
doubt or question my position with
regard to the war and its objects. 1
have again and again stated the very
serious and long continued wrongs
which the imperial German govern
ment has perpetrated against the
rights, the commerce and the citizens
OF the United States. The list is long
and overwhelming No nation that
respected itself or the rights OF hu-
manity could have borne those wrongs
any longer.
"Our objects in going into the war
have been stated with equal clear
ness. The whole of the conception
which I take 70 be the conception OF
our fellow countrymen with regard
to the outcome of the war and the
terms Of its settlement, I set forth
with the utmost explicitness in an ad-
dress in the senate of the United
States on the e2nd of January. last.
Again in my message to congress on
the End of April last those objects
we're stated in unmistakable terms.
"I can conceive no purpose in seek
Ing to becloud this matter except the
: purpose of weakening the hands OF the
government and making the part
which the United States Is to play in
this great struggle for human liberty
r:neAS"ion+ and hesitating part. We
have entered the war with our own
objects clearly stated. and shall forget
neither the reasons nor the objects.
There is no hate in our hearts for
the German people but there Is a re-
solve which can not be shaken even
by misrepresentation to overcome
the pretensions of the autocratic gov
ernment which acts upon purposes to
! which the German people have never
consented"

PRESIDENT SEES BALFOUR.
Spends Hour Discussing Negotiations
Between Two Countries.

Washington, May 21.-Presldert
Wilson called on Foreign Secretary
Balfour at the British mission this
afternoon and spent nearly three
quarters of an hour with him. The
call was not merely one OF courtesy,
but was for a further discussion OF
the negotiations between the two gov
ernments.
Members of the mission were great
" disappointed today to find 1t neces-
sary to abandon their arrangements
for a trip to Chicago and other points
in the Middle West. The state de-
partment expressed the desire that
the commission spend all OF its TO-
naming time in this country in WASH
ington in order to complete pending
negotiations.
The shipping situation was dis
cussed by Mr.. Balfour at two meet
ings today, first with his own trade
experts and later with Chairman Den
man and Gen. Goethals, Of the ship
ping board. The American officials
spoke most optimistically of their
plans for increasing ship production
by means of wooden ships and stand
ardized steel ships.
Mr.. Balfour also discussed with j.
P. Morgan and E. R. Stettinius the
future relations of the British gov
ernment with the Morgan firm in case

enjoyed the pleasure until about two
o'clock in the morning. There were
several cars of people here from
Glenns Ferry for the dance.
There were practically no hre-
works shot during the day. most of
the dealers being without them. and
only such stock for sale as was left

DANIELS WILL NOT
PAY PRICE ASKED
Coal Dealers Boosting Prices on Pro.
duct the Government
Must Have

Secretary Of the Navy Daniels has
revolted against the decision to sub
NIT coal producers price of $500 a
ton at the mines for coal for govern
ment use. He has announced that
the federal trade commission will con-
tinue its investigation to deter
mine the actual cost of production
of coal. He will not permit the coal
barons to rob the government by
pretenses and upon the acceptance
of the commissions report he expects
to set the price that the navy will
pay.
Il do not propose to pay $500
per ton for coal at the mines when
we are now getting 1t for Sass on
shipboard. Already l have truned
down an offer of the coal producers
of $2.95 at the mines," Daniels said.
When the cost of production is
fixed Secretary Daniels declares he
will determine on fair profit and
pay no more.

ELMORE GIRL HITS
ON BRAND NEW PLAN

In the process of building up an
interesting kindergarten Mrs. Eva
Noel utilizes the gas buggy very
efticiently, according to q story In
the San Francisco Chronicle OF q few
days ago. With the item is present
ed cut OF her car around which Ii
gathered a merry crowd of young
sters. Mrs. Noel was for many years
resident of Glenns Ferry, q daugh.
ter of Sidney A. Roberts, one of the
well known early settlers of Elmore
county. The Fisco paper says:
Out near the Preside O young
woman with notherly smile and a
talent for teaching young ideas how
to shoot opened a kindergarten. But
the school did not prosper. In
spite OF the fact that the teacher.
Mrs. Eva Noel. was skilled In the
science of adolescence and was a
past master in all the rats invented
by the renowned Froebel, pupils
came not except in very small num-
bers.
But Mrs. Noel was not long I'm
demonstrating that her genius for
getting business is almost equal to
her ability as a teacher of little
folks. She hit upon the happy Idea
OF getting an automobile for the pur-
pose OF bringing the children to
school in the morning and taking
them home In the afternoon. She
secured an Overland car and the
machine has proved such q wonder
full magnet with the children OF the
Army officers, and others who live
in the neighborhood of the Preside,
that the school has quadrupled in
size every few weeks.
Just as up-to-date merchants have
increased their business by using
motor cars for the delivery OF pack
ages, Mrs. Noel has multiplied the
size OF her school several times by
using an Overland Light Four for
the purpose Of carrying her precious
human freight to and from school,"

GOVERNMENT HAS
CREW OF MEN AT
WORK AT HAMMETT

People In the vicinity of Hamett
are feeling jubilant over the pros
poets for the government taking
over the King Hill project. There
is government engineering camp
already established near the town,
making preliminary surveys and esti-
mates, and 1t is expected that actual
work on the reconstruction OF that
canals will be started this fall. The
farmers on the Medbury tract have
had better water service this season
than ever before and have raised
good crops. Stockmen who have fed
there before are now Offering con-
tracts for the purchase Of their hay
at the going price this fall and hay
raisers feel certain that the price
will not be less than SIS.

DEMOCRATS BEGIN
THINKING ABOUT
NEXT CAMPAIGN

There 10 every reason to believe
that when the next political cam
paign opens the democrats of Idaho
will again line up as Nugent and
Anti-Nugent adherents, and that
the bone of contention will be over
the naming of candidate for
United States senator to success Mr..
Borah.
The democrats of Elmore county
are apparently lined up solidly with
the anti-Nugent faction and 1t is
safe guess that without some un-
foreseen event which would change
present views candidates who have
in the past aligned themselves with
that branch Of the party, will find
cold comfort among local political
workers.
