it has always been spoken of as q

Proudly he sent every one Of his

This assault upon Colonel Roosevelt
was apparently intended to arouse
certain classes against those political
candidates in Idaho who are arrayed
against the candidates Of the Nom
partisan league-and especially the
farmers.
The farmers will hardly forget
that this paper has always fought
their battles, and often under the
banner of Roosevelt.
we think we understand the atti-
tude of the farmer toward Roosevelt,
as well as the attitude of. citizens of
Idaho generally, and we cannot be-
lieve that such an attempt to align
the farmers or any other class with
those who for political reasons, deny
the loyalty and the honor of Theo-
dore Roosevelt will go unchallenged

We have watched the political
contest being waged in Idaho from
the sidelines of misgiving that the
state should have been so distracted

that has put in its appearance.
We have restrained comment, but

The compliant charges that Davis


made these statements: Capitalists
and big business concerns of America
met in Berlin and framed this war.
You don't have to buy liberty bonds.
These bonds are nothing but graft.
Let those who framed the war buy
them. The government is standing
in with the banks and you only get
4 per cent for your money. The
banks charge to 10 per cent for the
same money. The Red Cross is all
right, but you don't know If the
money goes to the right place.

PAPER LUCKY BUYER

A few months ago q miniature
sawmifl was installed in the Republi-
can office to speed up the work of
cutting the. metal slugs used in set
ting the advertisements The price
of the machine, with electric motor
attached was $500 and it seemed
high, but it was needed and was in
stalled.
Since that time, the price of the
same outfit has been rising, and now
it takes $500 to get one. Some Of
the other publishers desiring to mod
ernie their plants, are hesitating
about paying the advanced price, but
while they hesitate the price will pro-
badly go higher.

ting the bond drive over. After due
consultation with the legal depart
ment Of the council of defense it was
decided to make the arrests. The
men will be given a hearing before
the Unitd States commissioner. There
is no politics in this matter. It is
a case Of stopping disloyalty and OPP
position to the governments conduct

RECIPE FOR WAR SYRUP

Now while there is need for saw
ing sugar, the following recipe for
war syrup will prove acceptable and
valuable to those who enjoy hot
cakes. Hot cakes should be encour-
aged because the flapjacks the
Yankees are so fond of are great
wheat savers. Practically every sub
stitute makes good hot cakes, and

they form the favorite American
breakfast when served with good
syrup.
War Syrup
Two cups corn syrup, one cup
water; boil five minutes Cool. Add
one teaspoon Mapleine and 1-8 tea
spoon salt.
This recipe was furnished by
prominent cooking expert and is re-
commended, as the syrup may be
served not only on hot cakes, but ON
mush, cornbread, fritters and pud-
dings.
