Office Of the Council OF National
Defense, Washington, ID. c., to Ida
no State Council at Boise.
May II, 1918.
Gentlemen: Referring further to
your. letter of April '25, in which
you enclosed me copy of letter dated
April 6 from Mr.. Becker, chairman
of your Clearwater Council of de-
fence, l beg to state that / have
caused to be made an inquiry into
the truth of the statement alleged
to have been made by one James
Harp, Pastor of a Dunkard Church
in Idaho.
l am in receipt of an official COM
munication from the military at
tache of the British Embassy. which
states that certain rations of rum
are distributed to Commanders for
distribution to the men. 1t is is
sued under the direct supervision
OF Bragade and Battalion Comman-
ders, and each Platoon Commander
is responsible for the proper dis
tribution OF rum in his Platoon.
Such rations Of rum are distributed
only during the rainy and cold sea-
sons, when in the opinion Of the
medical staff, it is of value in help
Ing the men to recuperate from the
great physical strain and as a pre-
tentative from cold, Pneumonia, etc.
In hot season this ration of rum is
entirely suspended and cannot be
obtained from the stores.
The important part Of the COM
m~unication follows, in that 1t says.
AS to the regulations, it must be
remembered that it is never a COM
pulsory issue, nor is the individual
compelled to take it when it is is
sued" The practice is even so far
in the hands of the Unit Comman-
ders that they have discretions whe-
Their or not rum shall be distributed
under any conditions, and some of
them never distribute it, but these
exceptions are few and most Uuit
Commanders distribute rum in con-
dition of cold and rain, but, as stat
ed, The important fact is officially
given us that no man in the armed
forces Is ever at any time compelled
to take rum, and it is entirely with
III his province whether or not he
desires his ration. The Official in
formation further states that the
regulations governing the issuance
are not printed in the Kings Reg
ulations, because. for the S as
explained, it is in no sense a COM
pulsory order.
From the above 1t is very clear
that the Dunkard preacher is very
grossly misinformed or willfully mis-
representing when he states that
a young English soldier, an abstain
err from liquor all his life, was fore
ed upon penalty of death to drink
a shot of rum before going on du-
ty one night"
] have taken the trouble to have
this official statement in order to
set at rest the inquiry in your State
and to be able to give this informa-
ton to such others as may inquire.

Germans, that vas pulling the wires
and debating the disloyal policy of
American socialism. Unconsciously
good Americans were fooled
into supporting the vicious and all

A national program for the Re
publican party has been announced
by chairman Hays of the National
Republican Committee. Mr.. Hays
makes this announcement after as
certaining the views of the leaders
of the Republican party in all parts
OF the country. He has conferred
with former presidents Roosevelt and
Taft, Senator Borah, Senator Lodge,
Senator Hiram bohnson and other
strong men of the party. He an
nounces the Republican program to
be as follows:
First, the Republican party will
do everything in its power to win
the var now.
Second, Peace by victory and new
err a peace by compromise bargain
ing.
Third, Preparation in a ane man
ner to solve the unreasonable prob
lens of reconstruction and sail the
chartless cas- that come after the
al All this for a purpose far great
er than party success.
The Republican party has a long
and an honorable record of having
met every great crisis in this coun-
try successfully. 1t is meeting this
world war crisis in a name to in
spire confidence in Americans. Most
of the measures asked of Congress
by the President have been saved
by Republican votes, ate" heins
jeopardised by Democratic opposi-
ton. The Republican party believes
in making the world safe for De-
mocracy, without wasting SO much
energy in trying to make it safe
for the Democratic party.

miliIon of them, are under arms in
I'll behalf? How little we can do
at best to compensate them for the
terrible sacrifice they are freely
giving for us who are staying be-

T. ]. LaForest, horticultural in
spector, estimates a quarter of q
crop of cherries for this section.
An examination of the trees on the
Bobbett bench between Orofno and
Peck shows considerable damage
from frost. Where the clusters us
ually have a dozen or fifteen cher
ries they have only three or four.
But the quality will be extra fine
owing to the smaller number, and
the price will no doubt be the best

merry was in this locality last week

At first I laughed at the idea of
the non-partisan league propaganda.

Bile among the people. But l was
mistaken: the non-partisan league
organizers have come and gone away
with a pretty fat harvest of Pres

gone to the Red Cross or some other
b~enevolence.
What have the victims received
in return for their money? Nothing.

money? Nothing; absolutely moth

could form a political trust and put
all public utilities in the hands of

We believe in cooperation on the
farm. And here is a suggestion
worth while: Where you cannot
afford to buy manure s%preaders let
two or three Oh adjoining
farmes buy a good spreader jointly.

able figure. Form a club. The
same group can go farther and buy

profit and advantage of all. Try it.

According to the statements of
farmers from various parts of the
county the highway system is not
popular. When 1t comes right down
to roads over which the farmer has
to travel he cares considerably more
about the sort road he has than he
does about who built the road, or
the politics of the road boss. And
also the ratio between roads and
taxes cuts some ice. The system
that gives the best roads for the
tax dollar is what counts after all.
