LEADERS OF NoN-PARTISAN
LEAGUE plsLoYAL.

In view of the fact that large
number of farmers in Idaho whose
loyalty and good citizenship is above
suspicion are members of the nom
partisan league, 1t is ridiculous to
make a charge of disloyalty against
the membership of the organization.
But there Is evidence that the leaders
are disloyal and have repeatedly made
seditious speeches. and 1t is upon this
showing that Townley and others are
now in the tolls. In order to free the
Organization from the odium that now
attaches to 1t, the membership which
has been drawn to 1t in good faith
should offer their services to the gov
eminent by pledging themselves to in
crease crop production and to post
pone their demands for radical
changes In the system Of marketing
crops until after the war. This was
the suggestion made by Edgar B. Pr
per, editor of the Oregonian, in his
speech to the north Idaho newspaper
men at Moscow last week. In this
way they would give convincing proof
of their patriotism.

BORAH MAY HEAD COMMISSION
TO VISIT RUSSIA.

News comes from Washington that
President Wilson is considering the
appointment of another commission to
visit Russia and that II he does Sena-
tor Borah Is scheduled to be at it's
head. Senator Borahs discussion of
the Russian problem in an article in
the New York Times, which was re-
printed In the Miner, and his recent
seem to have greatly impressed the
president, and If another attempt is
made to help the Russian people by
sending commission to confer. with
them Borah will probably be the man
to lead it.
Those politicians, both republican
and democratic and particularly those
whose senatorial aspirations are
blocked by Senator Borah's candidacy
for reelection, appear to be much graf
flied over this news, for they assume
that with Borah serving on a commits
sion in Russia he will not be a candi-
date for reelection. So far as the
Miner is concerned, we see no reason
why the senator should not stand for
reelection even if he is in Russia. His
work there will probably not exceed
six months but even if it kept him
there for q year or more, it would not.
necessarily follow that he must give
up the senatorship. While it would be
most desirable from republican
standpoint for Borah to be in Idaho
during the campaign, his absence on
such a mission as this would not
weaken his candidacy and he would be
reelected by an overwhelming major
ity.
The Miner would not accuse the
president with playing politics in
dealing with the Russian question, but
the, effect of Borahs absence from the
state and possible withdrawal from
the senatorial race are matters of far
reaching Importance to the democrats.
If ROrah ooeS wa will haar No mora
democratic talk of non partisan sena-
torial elections in Idaho, and the row
between Nugent and Hawley will be
speedily settled for Hawley will not
hesitate to try for the six year term
with Borah out Of the way.

REVIEW OF MINING RESOURCES
OF IDAHO.

The annual report of Robert N. Bell,
state mine inspector, covering the
year 1917. has been received. 1t is not !
only a comprehensive review of the |
achievements In mining during the |
period, but it also points out the tre-
mendous possibilities Of mineral de-
velopment which may be realized
through the application of scientific
research spurred into activity through
the war requirements of the govern
ment. Naturally much space is given
to the mining industry in the Occur
dAlene district, from which more
than 80 per cent of the mineral pro-
duct of the state comes, but no section
of the state in which mineral deposits
are found is overlooked. The activi-
ties in every county are reviewed in a
manner that gives a very definite idea
of the local conditions and embodies
information that can not fail to at
tract attention and encourage the in
vestment of capital Extensive ex-
tracts from Mr.. Bells report will be
| found in this issue of the Miner and
further quotations will follow Special
attention is called to the existence in
Idaho of several of the rarer metals
for which a great demand has been
created by the war. Heretofore the
countries for supply of these metals.
Being shut out from these sources ae-
counts for the emergency demand now.
However, it must not be inferred from
this that the demand is merely tenn
porary. for if under the impetus of
war these metals can be supplied from
domestic sources, it is reasonable to
assume that the industry thus built up
will have the encouragement of the
government after the war and that the
domestic producers will permanently
supplant the foreign. Mr.. Bell again
emphasizes the importance of the great
phosphate deposits of southeastern
Idaho, and the coal beds near the
wyoming line, the development and
utilization of which he regards of the
| greatest importance.

WHAT IS THE USE OF A MILLIONAIRE?

do this in America, and yet the Vnvi-
GUS, the slothful and the minimizing
would deny wages to capital which has
made the wages and savings of Amer
lea possible.
Today capital gives the wherewithal
to fight for freedom and democracy,
for it gives us the railroads, the ships
shell. Germany is the most highly or
ganized capital state in the world. 1t
has put it's capital to bad use but its
entire reliance today in attempted
world conquest is upon it's accumulat
ed capital, and industrial and financial
Organization. Prussia has enslaved
the country in miitarism and is seek
ing to enslave every surrounding
country Opposed to Germany is the
united, concentrated wealth of west
ern civilization supporting millions Of
free men on the field of battle.
The hope of Germany for world con-
quest today lies in the PRONUNCIATION OF
poison economic gas--the propaganda
WITH winch she 1nlSleu the l4U,UUU,UuV
ignorant peasants in Russia. The Hun
said to the Slav: Lay down your arms
and take to the land" And then the
Hun takes the Slav. Today the same
propaganda is being put forth in all
the countries fighting for liberty. La
Dor is told that this is war Of cap
ital, that capital will get the benefit
and that now is the opportunity for
labor to come into its own by con-
scripting wealth. Consumption of in
come in war time is right, but con-
scription Of wealth-the taking of the
capital that produces the incomes
national suicide. If the German pro-
paganda seeking the destruction of or
ganized capital prevails on this con-
tinent, 1t will be immaterial whether
we are annexed to Mexico or to Rus

THE PRESIDENT HAS POWER
ENOUGH SAYS WATTERSON.

Colonel Henry Watterson, the vet
eran democrat and brilliant editor of
the Louisville Courier Journal, does
not take kindly to the plan proposed
by President Wilson in lieu of the war
council, and which in the opinion of
many senators and representatives
would give the president autocratic
powers. That is the opinion of Col
onel Watterson. and he gives express
sion to ii in a recent characteristic
editorial, from which the following Is
an extract
THAT war involves autocracy / I'M
derstand well enough. but in the field
not in the White House; over the in
ternational situation, not over our do
nestle affairs. The president, though
technically the commander in -chief of
the army, is still the servant, not the
master, of the people, and should hold
himself to the constitution and be neld
to it, and not above it. He should not
get the new power he asks. He has
power enough. His cue now is to
give us results. On these, and these
alone, his future rating will depend"

TAFT CALLS ATTENTION TO THE
WHISPERING TRAITORS"

The work that Is being done by ex
President Taft In supporting the war
policy of the administration has won
the admiration of all loyal citizens,
While he is the leader of the plan to
tons as a means of maintaining the
peace of the world, he recognizes that
the first essential is to crush the mil
itary power of Germany, for as long
as that exists there can be no secur-
ity to other nations. He is therefore
giving practically his entire time to
arousing the people to the full reali-
cation of the great task before them
and to the necessity of bringing every
to the support of the government. In
a recent speech he called attention to
one of the agencies that is found at
work in almost every community and
which he aptly termed the whisper
ing traitor" He said:
I'm little communities you will find
the presence of two or three Of these
whispering traitors who have suggest
ed reasons why we ought not to have
gone into the war; how we did wrong
to Germany in this and how we did
wrong to her in that And that has a
paralyzing effect upon the enthusiasm
of our people"
In this the ex-president sounds a
timely warning which should serve to
place every citizen on his guard. The
man who attempts to apologize for
German barbarity, to explain why this
government should have avoided de.
claring war against Germany, and to
advocate peace without complete VIC
tory over Germany, may well be re-
garded as an enemy who hopes by soft
words to conceal his real identity.
Such men are the most dangerous with
which the government has to deal, and
it is the duty Of every loyal citizen to |
unmask them as the only effective |
means of stopping their seditious ac-
tivity.

ALIENS IN IDAHO.
(Boise Statesman)

Idaho people will be amazed to find
that there are more than 5000 male
aliens In this state Of voting age, and
that there are more than $500 foreign
born white persons in Idaho more than
10 years of age who can not speak
English. On basis Of $50, 900 popula-
ton for the state, which is probably
excessive, this means that every sew
enty-fifth person, irrespective Of sex,
Is an alien, and that every seventy
eighth person. irrespective of age is
unable to speak our national tongue.
When Idaho people think and speak
Of helping to spread the national spirit
and to fuse many diverse races in the
American melting pot" they usually
conceive Of the alien problem as some
thing confined to other states and to
the great manufacturing cities of the
east and Of the middle west. The fig
ures on Idaho's aliens prove, however,
that Americanization, like charity,
may probably be begun at home.
