The Idaho Power Company Is con
ducting publicity campaign having
for its object the establishing OF a
partnership relation with lts many
customers by the sale to them OF It's

dividends with It's customors. thus
bringing about the better cooperation

it figures in his strategic calculations.
Up in Flanders there is q definite
advance south Of Kennel hill, pof-
tending the eventual clearing out Of
the salient thrust, into the British lines
in April. East Of Arras the fighting
is desperate as the Germans seek to
hold the Queant. Drocourt switch line, q
vital part Of the Hindenburg line, with
the British, according to todays re-
ports, actually breaking through it. In
Picardy the advance continues, and
with Bapaume, Combles and Peronne
in possession the allies have before
them no such serious obstacles as those
that confronted them a week ago. In
the region about Noyon the fighting is
for local advantage, with steady gains
by the French. North Of soissons the
lines are being carried forward con.
stantly, with the possibility Of a sud
den acceleration as the Germans find
themselves outfanked. 49,.
The week just closed was fruitful
one in all respects, with steady ad-
vances and no setbaeks. If the present
week yields as great gain the Ger
man situation will, indeed, have be-
come precarious.

Chairman Fess.

The republicans have found it 3D.
visabie to swap horses while crossing a
stream. Mr.. Tess Of Ohio succeeds Mr..
Woods Of Iowa ~ chairman Of the con-
sressional campaign committee. The
stream. it is true, has just been en-
tered. Nevertheless, the performance
Is Of interest, and the effect will be
noted with curiosity.
'The scholar in politics" is multi
plying. Chairman Tess is one. He is
college bred, and taught for some years
after graduating. Then he turned to
the field he is now helping TO till.
He made the change in q state where
It takes skill and energy to win Poll
tics Il strenuous In Ohio. As Nj. Fess
won, It is assumable that he plays the
game well He speaks and writes well,
and has achieved an excellent rank in
the House.
The campaign in progress is pitched
on party lines, and developing party
spirit. Politics is not adjourned.
Everywhere party agencies are active.
Party cries are in use. Party orators
are appealing for votes on party is
sues.
It cannot be denied, however, that
party msn are . little puzzled. Ths

are talking for publication. The M.
ture Of their deliverances betrAys their

Chairman Fess, therefore, must hus-
tie. He has but eight weeks in which
to master his job and do his wsrk.
The beginning is late. :
Whichever side wins, the victory will
be turned to party account. Another
democratic Congress will be hailed by
democrats as having bearing on 1920
and as encouraging to democratic hopes
for that year, while q republican Con-
gress will be interpreted by republi-
cans as evidence that the lease Of dem
ocratic national control is drawing to
a close.
Party government exists, and party
government. will continue. It is the
only safe government for this country.
And never has American government
been better than when party spirit has
been high, with party purposes freely
and frankly proclaimed.

The Presidents Tour.

The Presidents stumping tour will
be made at a time when two campaigns
will be in progrcss-the liberty loan
campaign, and the campaign for con-
troll Of the next Congress.
1t is needless to say that the Presi-
dent desires the success of the loan
campaign. he can speak definitely on
that subject. As comms7der-in-chief
Of the Army and Navy he knows the
war situation and the governments
wants. Money in great quantities Is
necessary. Congress has authorized
the loan.
It is likely that the loan would sue
coed without a word from the Presi-
dent. The people are we'll advised on
war points, and are showing every dis
position to meet the governments re-
quirements. OF course, they will be
glad to hear from him. He has all
the details of appropriation and ex-
penditnres to date, and can 60 into
the matter as freely as he thinks COM
patible with the public interestsf.
But what about the congressional
campaigns Will he touch upon thatf
If so, in what ways
The President is the leader Of his
party, and as such wishes for its suc-
cess in November. But will he ask for
success in plain termss r. 50, upon
what groundsa
He does not need another demo-
cratic Congress in the prosecution of
the war. Both parties in the present
Congress have been supporting hos
tilities. The republicans have done
their part ungrudgingly. So far as
the wA is concerned, they could be-
come the majority in Congress with
out detriment to the country's inter-
ests.
If, therefore, the President should
ask for continued democratic control,
it must necessarily be On political
grounds, EXPRESSED or implied.
The republicans are, and may well
be, giving this tour, with all that goes
with it, their Attention. They appfe-
ciate the Presidents power as party
leader. They likewise appreciate his
power AZ a stumper. He will drew well
everywhere. His Office, his personality
and his stake in the game will insure
large crowds. Should his itinerary
take him across the continent, he will
address enormous numbers going and
coming. He will be the star of the
campaign; and should his party win in
November it will owe its success large
" to this browning effort in its be-
half.

A Wer of Emancipation.

President Wilson's address to the
American people regarding Labor day
ID most significant statement of the
present aspects of the war. Apart
FROM the matter of labor's paNicipa-
tion and responsibility, upon which it
particularly bears, it is an important
procurement. At first, he says, the
war seemed hardly more than war
of defense against the military agrees
sion of Germany "But it is clear
now" he says, "that it is much moro
than a war to alter the balance of
power in Europe" and he adds:
1T is a war to make the nations and
peoples of the world secure against
every such power as the German au-
tocfacy represents. 1t is war of
emancipation. Not until it is won can
men anywhere live free from constant
fear or breathe freely while they go
about their daily tasks, and know that
governments are their servants, not
their masters"
This is the fight of no one class.
It is the fight Of all, of every man,
Of every group of men. Labor's con-
Germ in 10 is simply that Of the indi-
vidual American. Every man who
works with his hands has in this war
. stake even more definitely than the
men who through better fortune of
birth or environment are free from
the necessity of daily toll. For they
are more helpless in the event of ag-
erosion by militant power.
There is no class division among the
American people at this time. The
var has welded them together as never
before, fusihg them into a whole with
enc intent, one interest. And labor is
recognising the situation broadly and
clearly. It is contributing loyalty and
eagerly to the war strength of the ma
ton. Adjustments are in progress,
made necessary by the extraordinary
conditions suddenly precipitated, but
these are merely part of the natural
difficulties incident to a great enter
prise.
Labor fights today in the mills and
shipyards here at home just as def
nite1y fer the freedom of the world
from German domination as the men
who are bearing arms in France and
their comrades who are being carried
overseas for their reinforcement. Wer
it net for the industrial strength Of
America, expressed in terms Of high
Intelligence and great skill and new in
this crisis in terms as we'll Of ardent
patriotism, this war would ere now have
been lost to Germany. Thus Labor day
is celebrated today with keener
sense than ever Of the vitality impor-
tant part which the men who work
are playing for the welfare of hu-
mainly.

Yesterdays Gasoline Saving.

Yesterdays first experience with the
gasoline-saving order was most salts
factory. Although the request was not
couched in peremptory terms, it was
generally observed, and the streets of
the city and the roads leading from
it were so free of motor ears as to re-
store the Sabbath quiet Of days Of long
ago.
It has been estimated that if this
rule is. generally observed throughout
the country 100000 gallons of kaso-
line will be saved. This will be a most
valuable contribution to the American
war material. It has been estimated
that enough was saved yesterday to
move Gen. Pershing's army motors
1000 900 miles toward Berlin.
There is an economic side to the
gasoline saving. If 100000 gallons
were not used yesterday that would
ordinarily have been consumed the total
economy, at 25 cents a gallon-a low
rate, but safe for computation-was
81, $50 900. If the gasoline savers would
put into war savings stamps, or Red
Cross contributions, or subscriptions to
any other form Of war relief this
money that they would have spent in
pleasure riding they would appreciate
the full value Of the abstention from
Indulgence. They would also measure
the cost of the indulgence in needless
Sunday motoring.

with none Of the detectives attained,
after weeks Of effort and sacrifice. Not
even the tanks could carry the French

fensive German lines beyond certain
