PRESIDENT AGAIN SPEAKS

President Wilson, in an address be-
fore congress on Monday, answered the
recent peace speeches of Count Won
lIertling, the German chancellor, and
Count Czernin, the Austro-H Hungarian
spokesman, and clarified the war stu
ation, so that no doubts can be left
as to what the United States is fight
ing for, and what demands must be
granted to insure a permanent peace.
The president requires:
First-That each part of the final
settlement must be based upon the es-
sential justice of that particular cause
and upon such adjustments as are most
likely to bring a peace that will be
permanent;
Second-That peoples and provinces
are not to be battered about from
sovereignty to sovereignty as if they
were mere chattels and pawns in a
game, even the great game, now for
ever discredited, Of the balance of
power; but that,
Third-Every territorial settlement
involved in this war must be made in
the interest and for the benefit of the
populations concerned, and not as a
part of any mere adjustment or com
promise of claims amongst rival states;
and,
Fourth-That all well-defined ma
tional aspirations shall be accorded
the utmost satisfaction that can be
accorded them without introducing
new or perpetuating old elements of
discord and antagonism that would be
likely in time to break the peace of
Europe and consequently of the world.
&" A general peace erected on such
foundations can be dicussed, says
the president "Until such a peace
can be secured we have no choice but
to 90 on. So far as we can judge these
principles that we regard as fundament-
al are already everywhere accepted as
except among the spokes-
men of the military and annexationist
party n Germany"

must be serving now, shall not permit
these gigantic corporations to rob you
of so many millions a year, Now,
is it unfair to ask that if the farmer
is giving up his $l,6OO,OO a year, so
long as he gets no return for it, wheth-
er it is worth his while to fret as to
whether A. c. Townley or John D. gets
the money!
In this same issue, Mr. Townley,
June IA, 1917, denies he is opposed to
the sale of Liberty bonds but makes
vigorous kick on that method of rails
ing money for the war Also he took
occasion to approve CONSUMPTION with
an insinuating slur.
In the same issue he says further,
IF you, the rulers of this nation, fear
that autocracy may come across the
waters and ROB YOU OF THE POW
Err TO ROB US. If you are afraid,
and you want us to go to war, and give
our lives, we say to you that you must,
YOU MUST, send proof to us that you
are sincere. -
August %, the Leader said "The
bunk game practiced by the govern.
ment in appealing to the voluntary
patriotism of the farmers to increase
their production of food now stands
exposed in all its naked injustice. -
In the issue of August 80 the war pol
icy of the government is viciously at
tackled under the heading Whose War
Is IT." The same issue lauds the cour-
age, patriotism and staying qualities
of the German people and maintains
that they can never be conquered, and
therefore we are up against an impos-
sible task-Moral, make peace with
Germany at once, on any old terms, or
be annihilated
Dec. IA, 1917, Mrs. Kate Richard
0 Hare was convicted at Bismark, N.
d. on charge of treason and sentenc-
ed to five years in a federal prison.
Her last offence, and the one for which
she was convicted was made at Bow
man, n. D. She claims to have been
officially connected with the league
and that her work was done under the
supervision and authority of the league.
Also that her prosecution was intend
ed as direct blow at the league by
it's enemies.

an orchestra. Girls may take lessons

On Sunday, regular services are held
in the auditorium, and attendance at
Sunday school and church are compul-
sorry.
Comfortable cottages are provided as
homes for the boys and girls. Each boys
cottage is in charge of man and his
wife, while the girls cottages have a
woman as housekeeper and teacher
The environment at the institution, it
would seem, is most wholesome. From
all parts of Idaho are brought to the
school boys and girls who have made
mistakes, but who are believed not to
he past redemption. Surely in each of
these wards there is much of good, and
this school possessed of the facilities
for bringing out the better qualities in
these hayward youths, to the end that
they may become substantial men and
women.

100000 MOVIE ACTRESSES

Almost everyone enjoys the movies.
Many have their favorite actors and
actresses and with no small amount of
interest follow the film life of their
favOrites. Persons have been astound-
ed at statements made by motion pic
turc press agents of the fabulous sal
aries received by motion picture stars
Annual salaries have been said to
mount away up into the hundreds Of
thousands of dollars Maybe it's a
million for that matter. Anyway some
motion picture actors and actresses are
said to receive as much or more than
railroad presidents. All of this is
clever publicity work on the part of
the press agents, for they have got the
public to talking more and more about
the movies, and the public has become
extremely eager to see the "million-
dollar" actresses ON the screen.
From these stories OF the enormous
salaries purported to have been receiv-
ed by motion picture performers, one
would be led to believe that the mo-
ton picture industry is tremendous
w profitable business. This may have
had something to do with the govern
ment imposing a heavy war tax ON the
motion picture business.
Also, there is another way in which
the government plans to tax the mo-
ton picture industry. This time it Is
Il direct tax on the actors themselves,
for it is the income tax. If an actor
receives 100000 annually, as press
agents have asserted, this selfsame ac-
tor will be called upon TO pay heavy
income tax to Uncle Sam for the priv
ilege of being in the 100000 class.
Perhaps, in the future, the motion
picture companies press agents Will
not be so profuse as in the past with
their $780, 00-a-yeara stories, for
Uncle sam has practically said to them;

staff chief. the other day. Admiral
.Iellicoe asserted that optimistic speech

1t was indicated that the Germans,

optimistic speech, take especial pains

course, on the part of the Germans,
must be taken as a move to dicredit
the words of premier Lloyd George and
TO cause the British public to lose con
fdence in their governmental leader,
thus weakening Britain in the war.
1t is an interesting game in psyche

STATE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL

The writer recently had occasion to
visit the Idaho Industrial Training
school at st. Anthony, where the state
cares for those of its boys and girls
who have been pronounced by the
courts as incorrigible.
Located in the extreme eastern part
of Idaho, under the shadow of the
towering Teton mountains, the State
Industrial school, because of what may
be termed a general misunderstanding
of its purposes and workings, may be
regarded by many not familiar with the
institution, as sort of prison. visit
to the school, and an inspection of the
premises will alllay this belief

Williams, formerly teacher in the
Boise high school, is, with its 100 boys,

munity of itself Situated two miles
from the town of st. Anthony, is the
institution, where the boys and girls
are cared for, schooled in elementary
branches, and taught a trade. Though
discipline forms the background of the
entire school, every effort is put forth
on the part of the superintendent and
his assistants to relieve the institu
ton Of any resemblance OF a prison.
The pupils are placed on their honor,
and the period for which they are
kept in the institution is determined by
their conduct. One year is the mini
mum in the school.
The school is located on a farm of
500 acres, which is cultivated by the
boys, under the direction Of farm

with them.
The school tailor shop, under the d.

provide garments for the girls. In the

LOSS OF THE TUscANIA

The sinking of the British liner Tus-
cania by a German submarine, in. the
war zone, and the resultant loss of
more than 100 American soldiers en-
route to Europe, east heavy pail
over the entire United States Com
ing as they did from many sections of
the United States, the soldiers on the
vessel were typically representative of
the American people, and countless
homes throughout the country have
been saddened by the deaths of these
boys. Meantime the German gloat

is Teutonic idealism. 1t is this feature
of the Teutonic makeup that the United
States has gone into the war to elimi-
nate, and for which millions of young
Americans are willing to sacrifice their
lives-their all.
The destruction Of the Tuscania
should convince the American people
Of the absolute necessity of close uni
ty at home, in order that the United
States may win the war. While the |
destruction of the transport, and the |
killing of the 113 Yankee soldiers, in |
addition to members of the ship S crew,
is sadly to be deplored, the loss of |
life might have been much greater. |
Indeed, first reports of the disaster, as
given out by the war department at |
Washington, indicated that the deaths
we're in excess of 1000. A total of
1897 persons were abroad the vessel,
md the list comprised 2156 U. S.

GETTING RID OF COLDS.

The easiest and quickest way to get

been in use for many years and its value

YOU use, however, care must be taken
not to contract a second cold before YOU

of middle age or older should go to bed

It is better to stay in bed three days at
