FORMER GOVERNOR GETS GOOD
WORD FROM BOISE WHERE
HE is WELL KNOWN

BOISE.-In the political world o1
Idaho, Frank R. Gooding, of Gooding
is conceded to be the fighting candi-
date for United States senator" a repu-
tation his well-known characteristics
| displayed since he has been in public
| life i'll this state have gained for him.
! 1t is reputation entirely in keeping
with the times and if Mr. Gooding goes
Ito Washington, he will be found one
of the staunchest supporters in the upper
halls of congress, Of war program that
will bring about the shortest cuts to an
Allied victory and result in smashing
the war machine of the Hun.
The winning of the present war is
held to be the paramount issue and the
important legislation congress will enact
in the future will have an important
bearing on the outcome. In his an
nounced platform and policies Mr.. Good
ing has made it plain that he believes in
following vigorous program at all times
One that will serve to place every ounce
of energy behind the prosecution of the
war, not only on behalf of the United
States, but all of her allies. There will
be no halfway steps taken in this direc-
tior, so far as he is concerned, he an
nounces. He is also directly and unalter-
ably opposed to the profiteers who seek
to feather their own nests at the expense
of the consumers, and will strike at them
at every opportunity Those of his
friends who know him best declare he
will carry his fighting" qualifications
into congress just as. he has into ldaho's
public life.

Shows Trench Outfit.
Sergeant Abendroth is in the city in
the interest of the military training
department of the university. He has
with him complete trench outfit
with the exception of the gas mask
these are too much in demand to even
spare one, the department wrote him.
This trench outfit is displayed in the
window of the Sampson Music COM
pany where it attracts much attention.
Complete, it weighs 72 pounds. The
sergeant says in training man they
start him out first with simply the
blanket and the cloth scabbards for |
the several articles, and gradually
each article is added until the would
be soldier is finally carrying the full
72 IL pounds without knowing it.
Some Important Items.
The heaviest articles are the trench
shovel, pick and hatchet The two
most interesting are the periscope and
The hand grenade. The former is
much smaller than one would think
rom the "movie" pictures. 1t is
about 16 inches high and about three
inches square "A simple little thing,

Washington Was Wise

There is something of poetic Justice in the fact
that one of the first of the old sluices to be re-
habilitated was the Chesapeake and Ohio, the
building Of which was pushed by General George
washington, who was the first president of the
construction company which called 1t into being.
The Father of His Country was so convinced that
the future prosperity Of the nation had much to
do with water transportation by canal that he
obtained leave Of absence while he was still
commander of the Revolutionary army that he
might start the survey for the waterway with
which he hoped to connect the waters OF the
Chesapeake bay with the unsalted Ohio The
project was never realized, even in part, until
long after HIS DEATH but to this day the canal is
carrier of trade between Cumberland, Nd, and
Georgetown, in the District Of Columbia. 1t de-
rives its water partly from the Potomac, and If
deepened would be Of much Importance to the
national capital. 1t has for years been under
railroad control. The government has now placed
additional boats upon 1t and the lock crews are
working night and day. The channel is becom-
ing as busy as 1t was in Civil war days. when
800 boats, ten times the number which 1t had
when the federal authorities took charge, were
in constant operation-Walter Harrington In the
American Review of Reviews.

An able seaman today gets $50 a month and his
board During wartime he receives bonus of 90
per cdk on his wages voyages into the war-zone
#afeTs IF Europe. His life is insured without
cost to him to the extent Of twice his yearly
ings.
His future is assured If he stcks-and the ship
ping board believes he will stick. 1t is estimated
that not less than 100000 officers and men will be
wanted to man the merchant marine after the war.
and 1t is expected that every accepted will be
an American citizen.
The shipping board Is training officers as well as
crews for the new merchant marine 1t has 81
technical schools in navigation and engineering,
where experienced men receive free instruction
fitting them for officers licenses.
From June, 1917, when these schools were start
ed, to September, 1913, more than 10000 students
were admitted to them. Every student was an
American citizen, fitted to enter by two years at
sea- or in the case Of engineers. equivalent tech
meal experience
Graduates of these schools are the bridges of
American merchant ships today in all of the seven
seas and the present classes Of the school contain
more than 1900 students.

These facts make the
