Betty Dearborne Heroine.

The main interest in the play is cen
tered in the winsome character of Betty
Dearborne. The young ministcr-in-t trial,
John, boards at her mothers home and
is warned by the elders that he will not
be accepted as their minister if he mar
ries her. Betty and her lively young
brother, Tom, play pranks on the deacon
which eliminates in the young girl IS
arrest and open trial. John arrives at
the trial in time to turn the tide
by a mastery plea before the court,
routing the disapproval against Betty.
Later, her consistent seriousness, her
development from girl to woman, pro-
long the dramatic suspense and end
with the uniting in love of the minister
and Betty.

AILSHIE MAKES
ANNOUNCEMENT

Judge James f. Ailshie gave out
statement last week in Occur d Alene
formally announcing his candidacy for
the republican nomination for the
short term senatorship to succeed the
late Senator Brady His nomination
papers will be filed in the near future
and in announcing his candidacy said:
THE all-important issue is, winning
the war; everything else is secondary
and must be subordinated to the great
war task before us and every energy
of the government should be directed
to that end. Congress should pro
vide at once for universal military
training for our young men between
the ages of Is and II as an emergency
war measure.
"Profiteering should be prohibited by
act of Congress. No man or assoc
iation of men should be allowed to ac-
cumulate a fortune off the tradegy of
this war.
"In the interests of economy and
good business administration the bud
get system for national expenditures
should be adopted

most direct and inexpensive method

of the farms, giving to the farmers of
Idaho the same encouragement and

the farmers near the markets and
large centers.

Woman suffrage is a demonstrated
success. The shortest and quickest
route to universal suffrage is through
the passage of an amendment to the
federal constitution. If elected this
will have my unqualified support. The
heroic women of America who are Civ
ing their sons to their country and
making every possible sacrifice, are
deserving of the fullest recognition at
the earliest possible moment
Our soldiers must be properly car
ed for after the war in the recon
struction of our business and econom-
ical life at home. Congress should
Immediately provide for the appoint
ment of a federal commission to study
this problem with che view of giving
fair treatment to the millions of our
soldiers on their return to civil life
In this great West is a vast domain of
public land, a great part of which
could be thrown open to our return
ing soldiers on the most liberal terms.
America must be generous in her
treatment of the men who are offering
their lives on their country's altar"

Here's a "pome" by E. H. Tostevin,
of "Teddy's" old town, Mandan, N. D.,
who's somewhere at the front. The
point of it is-well, read it for your
self.
There's something sets the heart to
beating faster,
1t seems to wipe the scars of war
away;
1t smothers saddened thought meath
cheer and laughter,
Gives promise of a better, brighter
day.
1t seems to make our smiles a bit
broader,
And darkest thoughts are banished,
never fail;
It's the thought that folks at home have
not forgotten,
It's the feeling that we have when we
get mail.
No gas clouds can asphyxiate our
memories,
And bullets can't kill off our dreams
of life
Before this world was hurtled into
battle
And we became a part of an the
strife.
For mail will make the sourest crouch
es vanish
And dour looks give way before a
grin;
In fact, the distant future looks in
viting
When the long belated mail at last
comes in.

NEW UNION EXPRESS SYSTEM
Is To Be known As the American Rail-
way Express Company

Mr.. Dwyer, of Spokane, in charge
of the reorganization of the express
business of this district under the new
federal ruling which went into effect
yesterday requiring the consolidation
of the express business, was in the
city last Thursday and Friday in con-
ference with Great Northern Express
Agent A. B. Ashby and Western Ex-
press Agent d. c. Mcdonald.
The new express business consol-
idation will be known as the American
Railways Express company and the
operation of the business will be sup
ervised by the government. An in
crease in rates went into effect yes
terday, the increase amounting to a
bout ten per cent.
Under the old system in Boomers
Ferry the railway station agents acted
as express agents and received for
compensation a percent of the total
business. Under the new system the
express agents have no idea of what
compensation will be allowed them al
though it is rumored that the govern
ment is working on a schedule which
will mean an increase in pay and
which will date back from the first of
the year.

CAN BUY MORE
SUGAR NOW

c. w. King, county food admins
traitor recently wrote to the state ad-
ministrator, r. F. Bicknell, of Boise
asking if was possible to issue spec
ial permits for large families to buy
more than 100 pounds of sugar during
the season for canning and l. the
county administrator could be author
lied to allow families living in remote
sections to buy more than five pounds
of sugar at a time for the ordinary
daily uses. Following is the reply
of the state food administrator which
was received Saturday:
1.-THE same rules apply to brown and
powdered sugar as apply to granular
ed and other sugars. Those persons
living more than five miles from their
source of supply may be permitted to
buy sufficient sugar at one time to
take care of 80 day requirements
based upon an allowance of three
pounds per person per month for the
number in the family.
In regard to sugar for the seasons
canning if you are satisfied that the
person applying for more than 100
pounds actually possess the fruit and
will use the sugar for canning only
and if they agree to be prepared at all
times to show that the sugar " as used
for canning only, then you may auth
orize the sale through a special per-
NIT, making it a point, however, to
issue the special permits for such ex-
cess quantities as are actually re-
quired by the applicant.

CHAUTAUQUA
PROGRAM GOOD
BETTER ENTERTAINMENT THAN
EVER COMING TO BONNERS
FERRY AUGUST 3rd to Sth
PATRIOTIC NUMBERS FEATURED
Musical Program Worth Many Times
the Cost of a Season Ticket

The various committees of the local
chautauqua association have been
holding meetings lately and are get
ting organized and ready for the cam
paign to be started to interest every
citizen in the county in the chautau-
qua which will come here under the
auspices of Ellison and White, of
Portland, for the week of August 3rd
to Sth.
There is no doubt but that the pro-
gram of the Ellison-White chautauqua
this year eXcells all previous years
The musical program will be a big
drawing card for there is the New
York City Marine Band which will
give at least two concerts and this
organization is reputed to be one of
the best in the United States the APP
polio Concert company will give de
lightful entertainments; the Metro
politan Artists will appear in songs
and instrumental numbers; the Royal
Hawaiian Quartette is one of the best
organizations of its kind and always
pleases wherever it is heard; the Schu-
bert Serenaders are one of the most
prominent musical organizations of
eastern states and furnish an enter
tainment that one usually would have
to pay at least a dollar to hear; the
community singing will be a fea-
ture of the musical part of the chau-
tauqua and will be under the direction
of Mr. and Mrs. Eichorn.
Sergeant-M Major c. NJ Smith, a pat
riot and soldier who saw three years
of trench fighting, brings vivid story
of the rain of shot, shell, shrapnel,
gas, liquid fire and heart-rending con-
ditiOns among the subjugated people
of Belgium.
Mrs. A. C. Zehner, who speaks on
the fifth night, is coming to the chau-
tauqua directly from the national con-
ference of American lecturers, and is
one of the lecturers accredited by the
government to speak on war questions.
DR.. Henry w. Poor has been at the
front and his lecture, Wonders of the
World War" illustrated with slides
done in natural colors from official
photographs taken by Underwood and
Underwood at the front, will be one of
the big events of the week
Another lecture during the week of
particular patriotic interest will be
America and Japan" by Nj. T. Yama-
motto, the noted Japenese scholar and
student of international affairs.
Other lectures of prominence will
be Worlds In the Making" a popular
lecture on astronomy by Dr. Arthur
d. Carpenter; THE Advantage of a
Handicap" by DR.. Elliott A. Boyl, and
a brilliant health lecture on the last
afternoon by Beatrice Heskett.
A splendid entertainment feature of
the program this year will be the ap-
pearance of Elsie Mae Gordon in char
acter representations.
The Junior chautauqua work is be-
ing given added prominence this sea-
son. "a travelling pageant director has
been added to the Ellison-White forces
and she has general supervision over
all the children's workers. She also
directs the Mother Goose festival, the
feature attraction for Riddles" on the
last night Of the chautauqua.
