time. | have attended all the princi-
pal fairs, state. district and country, in
Oregon, Washington and Idaho and
conferred with the principal men who
exhibited livestock at these fairs.
There will be assembled at Lewis
ton, Idaho, on November s, the finest
display of cattle, horses, sheep and
hogs ever seen in one enclosure in any
of the states of the great Pacific
northwest
u am in hopes the livestock en-
thusiasts of Idaho may attend this
event 1t is worthy of patronage and
support. The legislature at the SEES.
sion last winter made no mistake in
making a $4,000 annual appropriation
for this stock show.
u wish the constituency OF every
member who voted for this appropria-
fion could be present and see what
actual merit the exposition has.
IDEAL LOCATION.
Lewiston is an ideal location for a
livestock show, No other place in Ida
no is so ideally located. 1t is the low
est place in altitude in Idaho and the
show stuff will leave the grounds look
ing better than when they arrived
The event is the pride of Lewiston
and they support it with loyalty that
is typical OF the genuine Idaho spirit"

There were some few bidders at

tives of the district. at the time the
sale took place. They had expected to
bid on forty acre tracts ut when it
was explained to them by others pres
ent that the land was to be sold in
64O-acre tracts and had been so ad-
Vertised they took no further interest
in the sale.
The report that a restraining order
might be issued to prevent the sale
appears to have been built on imagi-
nation. No such order was issued
and none was served on State Land
Commissioner SmOtt of the state land
department, who conducted the sale
There was no delay in the sale at all.

ident Cunning offered the districts bid

put up and the land knocked down to

Donnellson Review: The keo-
sauqua Republican of November l in
discussing the probable candidates
for congress in the first district, IN
cludes the name of Sheriff John Y.
Scott Of Keokuk If Mr.. Scott has
any aspirations along this line he has
never mentioned it, and his friends
are responsible for the use of his
name in this connection. They not
only realize his fitness for the office,
but they recognize the fact that NO
one has wider acquaintance In the
district or could come nearer being
elected than John C. Scott.
OF course, if Mr.. Kennedy desires
to succeed himself it is not probable
that Lee county VIII put forward two
candidates for that office, but II he
does not, the first district could dc
no better than induce Mr.. Scott to
allow the use of his name in this
connection.

FOLLOW YOUR LEADER.

North American Review: There is
no more significant feature of this
country's relationship to the war than
the change of tone and attitude of the
ipresident. We call attention to this,
| not by way of carpihg or censure, but
lrather Of commentator. No man can
| be too great to change his mind;
| it is only little men who are too STUB
| born to do so. As to the charge OF
| inconsistency, which many are
thoughtlessly quick to make, remem-
| Der that Emerson declared that con-
sistency is something with which a
great mind has nothing to do
In one of his most noteworthy ut
terances before Americas entrance in

against hope that we could remain out
of it and play the part OF a peacemak-
| err. the president said that there must
| be peace without victory" Now, af-
| ter six months of actual experience in
the war. he is still more insistent that

which we are inclined to give him
much more credit and praise than his
critics gave him blame for the form

| 1t is not an inconsistency: or If it

spirit 1t is rather development, an
awakening, a recognition of facts and
! a rising to meet them; and 1t is only
| live beings that develop, only men
with vision who awaken, only strong
men who squarely meet formidable
conditions. Doubtless the president
was in error when he demanded
peace without victory" He himself
would be the foremost to admit it.
| But as surely as he was in error be-
fore. he is right now.
| The lesson of the incident should
be patent to ALL A large proportion
of this nation has erred at least as
much as the president did, and with
/ perhaps less excuse. 1t has ignored
the fact that we are at war, or it has
failed to act as those should who are

TALE OF TWO DOGS.

The sole defender Of the fort Of Fau1 when
the French took it was dog the retiring forces
had left behind. He was half starved and his
tongue being swollen with thirst his welcome
was husky But he demonstrated his rejoicing
with his tail, and being made much of by the
French soldiers he adopted them as his people
a collar on his neck which bears the legend
''The dog Of Vaux,' he is the mascot of the
regiment.
Of all the less developed life forms which
man comes in contact with it seems probable
that the dog enters more fully into his emotion
al life. Dogs, or some dogs, sink and subordin-
ate themselves completely, and actually seem at
times as much in sympathy with the masters
plan as much concerned about it's success, and
even more frantically delighted at it's happy
outcome than the superior intelligence of the
partnership is. 1t may be argued that assoca-
ton with man develops and individuates the
dog and confers upon him emotional capacity
no other animal, save perhaps in very excep-
tional cases. is known to possess. Having
nothing to begin with save the instructive at
fractions and antipathes necessary to safe
guard his animal existence, the dog takes over
at once his masters interests, apprehensons,
loves and hates, the one emotional outfit or
q man adopted as blood brother by tribe and
shares thereafter the tribal consciousness,
makes its interests his own and its laws the law
of his life.
The arguments, and they are cogent, of those
who hold that lower animal intelligence differs
from human intelligence only in stopping short
