Our Spendthrift Governor
montpelier Examiner.)


Nose Alexander hardly got the ex-
ecutive chair warm, after his first
inaugural, until he began skylark-
ing about the state, extensively for
the purpose of telling the dear peo-
pie how he was going to save them
two million dollars, but in reality he
was campaigning for reelection. That
he won out was due to the Wilson
tidal wave which swept over Idaho
on the 7th of last November, and he
was almost lost in the wave for he
fell some $4,000 votes behind Wilson.
Having squeezed in by "the skin
of his teeth" we had hoped that Nose
would takethe hint that the people
rangue. He really did manage to
content himself about the capital
while the Legislature was in session.
but soon after he got that body off
his hands, the nation declared war
against Germany. That was meats
for Nose" for he suddenly became
embued with a most wonderful de-
gree of patriotism, and he again
started ''hot footing" it about the
state telling the merchant, the bank
err, the farmer and everybody else
what they should do. In addition, he
directed his private secretary to issue

another, at the rate of about one a
week. 1t is a safe bet that since
war was declared against Germany
Governor Alexander has issued more
proclamat and travelled more
miles than any other four governors
in the United States.
In hiking about the state during
his first term Nose paid his own
expenses, but now that he is endeav-
oring to arouse the patriotism of the
dear people, he has decided that
they should pay his expenses. Not
satisfied with this, he has been TAX
ing all of the other democratic state
officials with him, and the people
have been paying their expenses, too.
That is, they will unless the republi-
can legislature which will be elected
next year refuses to appropriate
funds with which to pay the defic-
iency warrants which are now being
issued to pay for the pleasure trips
the four democratic officials are TAX
ing about the state, while the two
republican officials are staying at
home and attending to their duties.
All of which causes us to wonder
how long the people of Idaho will
swallow such humbuggery as Nose
is giving them, and say they like it

THE KALISPELL ROUNDUP
Second Big Annual Show of North
western Montana.

The 1916 Kalispell Roundup was
the greatest show success ever pulled
off in Northwestern Montana. Every
line of the big program was faith
fully put on besides specialties, that
were added. Besides, every arena
participant was paid in full and
the association closed it's 1916 books
with a balance. This is saying a
good deal for the first annual show
of such elaborate proportions as the
1916 Kalispelf Roundup.
The 1917 show will be more elab-
crate and larger number of en-

We have noticed that some mail
order houses are advertising a gas
oline wood saw at a special cut
price. Now l knew that such was
the case before l went to Spokane
and took the trouble to trace it
down. l found that it is an inferior
machine and does not come up to the
standard of the "Wade" machine that
am selling. Presumably this mail
order-house machine was put on the
market to blind the public and to
draw trade. l heard so much of the
safety clutch machine that | decided
to investigate while in Spokane and
j found that it did not better the
quality of the machine but resulted
in the machine being short-lived, is
of no use when moving this much of
that special machine.
We found a market for wood and
we could have contracted for several
thousand cords. Anyone who has
wood to sell or cut will find a market
this season. / can sell several car
loads of green rick wood at once.
1t will be good investment for any
one who has a quantity of wood to
cut to call and see my wood saving
machine. / handle the "Wadev, the
best machine on the market and
backed up by reliable firm which
will make good any defects in work
manship. That my machine did not
work well at the first was not the
fault of the machine but on account
of inexperience in running it, (too
many cooks spoil the soup.) l do
not believe l will have any further
trouble.

on those fats containing the growth
producing elements. Yet we must
save on them by utilizing them much
more fully than heretofore
Since cooking apparently does not
destroy the properties of the fat
soluble substance contained in green
plants, the use OF greens Is recon-
mended, as are household canning an
drying. The use OF larger quantities
OF green leaves as salad is also high
" desirable.
While adults usually may decrease
their fat allowance, IL should not be
done with growing children. Every
child should have plenty OF fats Ia
the form OF milk and eggs, also spin
ach or other green vegetables rather
than separated fats.
It is a biological fact. and therefore
to be recommended as a healtnful
habit, even II the present crisis did
not exist, that those consuming for
the fat portion Of their diet eggs, but
ter. cream, rich milk, cream cheese
and, best Of all. greens and salad~,
get certain vttamines and growth de-
terminants that probably most Of the
other animal fats and a great deal Of
the vegetable oils lack.
