SUGAR

The new regulations governing the
use Of sugar have been received by
Chas. Fisher. county food admins
traitor. with the request that they
be made public, and everyone is ex-
pected to observe these regulations
strictly. Boarding houses are al
lowed three pounds of sugar for each
80 meals served. This is at the
rate Of three pounds for each boar
der. using three meals q day for 80

All bakeries are limited and must
make statements of amount of bus

statements must be filed with the
food administration before July Is,
with a heavy penalty for failure to
do 90.
All wholesale, retail and other
dealers in sugar must have q GER
tificate from the county food ad-
ministration before they can buy
sugar in July, August and Septem-
Der.
The department is anxious to
have persons canning fruits secure
all the sugar necessary. but it Is
safeguarding the sugar supply by
requiring that a certificate from the
county food administrator must be
obtained in order to get more than
rs pounds of sugar for canning pur-
poses. Any one wishing to can fruit
can get rs pounds of sugar.. but af-

A statement of the amount Of sugar
required must be filed with the
food administrator.

Idahoans should prepare to steel
themselves for the sacrifices before
them; for with their sons on the
battle line fighting for the preser-
walton Of civilization that the ten

. minute. The new model rifle,
with which the Americans are being
equipped. is said to do even better
than that. During recent fighting
near Amiens, the Americans were
instructed to fire 10 shots q min
ute, aiming point blank. This per-
mits each infantryman to fire 1S
minutes before renewing his supply
of ammunition.
Meanwhile the German. firing
at the same rate of speed has ex-
hausted his supply. The American
beats him by eight minutes and 100
rounds.
Another easOn why the Ameri-
a infantryman has been giving
such a good account of himself is
that the average American knew
something about rifle shooting be-
fore he went into the army. Many
of u recruits have hunted foxes,
rabbits and squirrels; others had
shot big game in the west. and some
city men had learned to hit the
bulls eye in shooting galleries.
Nearly every American has fired a
rifle enough to know something
about shooting and this helps inn
mensely when the time ONE to
fire in deadly earnestness.
The present fighting has done
much to stimulate the younger gen.
GRAFTON in target shooting. Various
rifle associations are now offering
prizes for the best scores made with
light rifles. All of this shooting
has it's value because the day may
come when the boys will be needed
on the firing line. and everything
they know about shooting when
their real training begins. will help
them just SO much. .

POLITICS IS ADJOURNED.

This is a very pretty saying and
ought to be just rs genuine and
forceful as it is pretty in theory.
We are in receipt of a sheet from
the Publicity Bureau of the Demo-
cratic National Committee that sug-
gests anything before politics is adj
journed." 1t is q political sheet en-
tirely and shows which way the po-
litical wind is blowing. The slogan
will be from this on. and 1t will be
worked over time, nothing must be
done to hinder or embarrass the
President. We must not talk poll
tics. We must let a few democrat
ic politicians do the political talk
ing SO there will be q certainty OF
the election OF enough democrats
to control the national Legislature
easily. 1t sounds like the fellow
who did not care which church the
convert Joined just no he Joined the
hard shell Baptists.
We are very much In favor OF ad'
journing politics and giving oul
strength to repelling the Hun. WHIT

not count It just the fair thing fol

SENATOR BORAH.

The Kendrick Gazette accuses the
Republican Of having a crouch" at
Senator Borah. We will leave that
to the Gazette to settle. Call 1t
what you will, we know that Sena-
tor Borah. who poses as a high and
lofty patriot, it not to be depended
on when it ONE to fighting a dir
ty gang Of political crooks. Borah,
a republican, lined up with the gang
against the people and decency and
right in Clearwater county. We put
it square UP to Borah, and he was
found wanting. Borah has BEEN a
and Patrick Blake OF Orofino. Bor-
ali. we are told, was a personal
friend of the Blakes in Clearwater
county. And that friendship for
political crooks kept Mr.. Borah from
taking a stand for decency and good
government. To throw this into
Mr.. Borah's lace now is the work of
a CROUCH" says the Kendrick Ca
zette, a democratic paper. The
Blake paper in this county also de-
tends Mr.. Borah. And Mr.. Borah
should be honest enough to run as
a democrat, instead of posing as a
republican and hobnobbing with
democrats. Borah is a republican in
name only. He is, in fact, Bolshe-
Wiki, Socialist, reformer, standpatter,
Free Silverite, Populist, Fusionist,
Democrat, Republican, wet or dry,
tariff or free trader, woman suffra-
gist or no votes for women, accord
ing to the'way the wind blows, and
the thing that will help Borah pO-
litically. Go back over the history
of Idaho, since Idaho was state, and
you will find Borah chasing the
rainbows Of political frenzy and
false pretense. He has repeatedly
walked out of the republican party
and crawled onto the band wagon
Of every passing freak political cir
Gus, devoting his personal ability to
the pleasing task Of helping fan the
flames of discomfort, ever when the
republican party was right and
sound. When a popular wave
sweeps the country, Borah takes to
the water and rides the first wave
Of popular prestige.
We are willing to grant Borah
political freedom. He has a right
to be a political flea If he likes
But when 1t comes to decency In
government, to a question of rtgh'
and wrong, to the Kidding q count,
in Idaho Of political crooks. we de
ny that Mr.. Borah has any right t.
shirk his duty If opportunity pre-
sents itself, and we are opposed t.
Borah, because he. as United States
senator, refused to assist In clean
ing up Clearwater county. tn,
gang counted Borah their friend
and there is reason to believe tn
Blakes knew what to expect of Dor
ali.
The republican does not care wha
the rest Of the people Of Idaho d
about 1t. We do not are whethe
u protest goes farther than on
own vote. So far as we are con
cerned we know that Mr.. Boral
will not get our vote, and we will
protest his election because we con
