day by the United Press of the great
American offensive toward the Rhine
$4,000 Americans between the ages Of

proud reserve army to back the boys
"over there"
General Pershing could not have
timed his effort better than to launch
it on the day when the Americans at
home are moving to enlist millions
more for the "victory army"
More than 500 men had registered
at the courthouse before noon today
and reports from all other precincts
in the county Indicated that an equally
large per centage has registered. More

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO
WINS A GREAT VICTORY

The victory Of the University OF
IDAHO at the Spokane Interstate fair
is much greater than the meagre re-
port received from Spokane Thurs
day would indicate. The university
made almost clean sweep in compe-
tition with Washington State College
and the great Curtis herd, Of Alberta,
Canada, herd noted throughout the
northwest. The university took four
out of six first prizes and every sec
ond prize in the fat stock show.
This is the seventh successive time
that the University of Idaho has won
the greatest number of prizes at
northwest livestock shows. In the
herd class the university took first
and third prizes, and got grand cham
pion on steer.
The animal which won this signal
honor is a very fine specimen of fin
ished beef animal and was greatly
admired by stockmen who visited the
fair and praised him highly. He is a
beautiful purebred, registered Short
horn, of the roam type, called "Roan

Lad" His fine condition, splendid
form and distinctive marks, won the
admiration of the judges and the
many stockmen who viewed the prize
winning herds.
The university herd consisted of
eight fat steers. They were in charge
of Professor G. w. Hickman, head of
the animal husbandry department, as
sisted by 0. e. Mcconnell, and Archie
Kane, herdsman. These men have
raised and fattened these animals and
prepared them for the show ring.
The University of Idaho had no fat
sheep for this exhibit, owing to the
fire which recently destroyed the en-
tire fat sheep herd but Dean Iddings
is confident that had these sheep not
been destroyed the university would
have made clean sweep in sheep
prizes.
Dean Iddings, who returned from
the fair at Spokane last night, says
the fair is good one, with some fine
stock and, despite the war condition,
is being well attended and much in
terest was shown.

WILLIAMSON ANNOUNCES HE
WILL RETIRE FROM BUSINESS

| later he took the corner room where
John Weber's auto repair shop is To-
cated,s and these rooms were also bal
conied
The next year he bought out the
furniture store of Grice & Sons where
the Orpheum theatre is and also open
erected at Palouse, rs by 100 feet and
700 to $4,000.
Three years later this was sold to
Alley & Rundell and Mr.. Williamson
confined his business and his efforts
and capital to Moscow. He took over
the Mcconnell Mcclure building, with
it's three floors, the top of which had
not been used for store, and filled
the three floors and a balcony around
the entire first floor The next year
this immense floor space was made
quate and he took the Hunter & Truitt
building, 40 by 120 feet and occupied
it and still occupies it.
'The sale opens Monday said Mr.
Williamson. Everything in the store
will be sold to the people of Moscow
and vicinity, who have helped build
up the business and made it possible
to have such store here. In addition
to the stock of goods now on hand
there will be between $4,000 and $40,-
900 worth of goods bought six months
ago which are beginning to arrive and
will be put on sale at the same prices
as the other stock. The store will be
kept open until the last articles are
sold and the people of this section
will get the benefit"

THE NONPART|SANS
CLAIM ALL IDAHO
TOWNLEYITES HAVE CAPTURED
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
IN THIS STATE

BOISE.-(SpeciaD the NOM
ination of W. T. Dougherty, secre-
tary of state, and T. A. Walters; at
torney general, very much in doubt
late primary returns continue to favor
the nonpartizan league and if they
continue to do so, that organization
will have nominated its entire state
ticket in the democratic primary.
There is another position becoming
doubtful. That of Second district
congressman. L. T. Purcell, league
candidate, is gaining on Perry w.
Mitchell, regular democrat.
State Auditor Clarence Van Deusen
has been defeated for nomination by
w. P. Rice, nonpartizan. Early re-
turns may show Walters to be run
ming slightly ahead of B. A. Cum
mings, nonpartizan, and Dougherty
with only few votes to spare ahead
of w. A. Fife, the league nominee.
Instead of the late returns being
favorable to the regular democratic
nominees they are unfavorable, which
has caused surprise.
Frank R. Moore, of Moscow, unop-
posed candidate for long sena-
tor; Senator John F. Nugent, in
dorsed by the league for short-term
senator, who has defeated James H..
Hawley, together with E. L. Parker,
unopposed for state treasurer, may be
the only regular democrats who sur
vive the nonpartizan onslaught.
The nominees in the republican pri
mary can now be definitely announced
as follows United States Senator W.
E. Borah to succeed himself as long
term senator; Frank r. Gooding, who

short term senator; Congressman
French and Smith, unopposed; D. w.
Davis, who defeated A. p Atherton
and R. M. McCracken, for governor;

the balance of the state ticket, where
in there were no contests.

81 attribute much of my success to
continued advertising. l made it an
inviolate rule0to spend seven cents of
every dollar received for advertising
AS my business increased l increased
my advertising When l opened my
store in Moscow Is years ago the
trading radius of the town was about
nine miles. Now we draw trade from
60 miles away. During the 15 years
have been in Moscow l have sold
more than $6,0O0,OO0 worth Of mer-
chandise and have paid out more than
100000 in salaries and wages
This is the statement made today
by N. Williamson, owner Of Moscow's
largest department store, who is go
ing to retire from business and en-
gage in raising blooded cattle. Mr..
Williamson has been in business in
Moscow Is years. He started in the
Miller building where the Orpheum
theatre now stands, Is years ago.
His store had a front Of 25 feet and
was 80 feet deep. Today he has a
front of 85 feet, depth of 12O feet
and four floors and he says consistent
and persistent advertising is the
secret to his success.
Mr.. Williamson's oldest son, Jack,
volunteered for service a year ago
and is now fighting in France. He
owns several farms and expects to
engage in farming and raising pure
bred cattle. The entire stock is to be
closed out at retail. He has refused
several offers to sell the stock in bulk
to be shipped to Portland, Seattle and
other points but he says every article
will be sold in Moscow.
The growth Of Mr.. Williamsoh's
business has been phenomenal. Start
ing with a small stock in the Miller
building he began to advertise sys-
tematically, keeping. close account of
his receipts and putting seven cents
out of each dollar for advertising pszr-
poses.
His business soon outgrew its mod
est quarters and he took lease on the
Shields block now occupied by the
Hub and the Golden Rule stores. The
business increased and balconies were
built around the walls of this. Two
years later he took the room occupied
by the Moscow Grocery where Witter
& Fishers plumbing shop is. A little
