Prompt Wheat Payments.

Boise, Idaho.--A request that
priority be given Idaho wheat ship
ments so that farmers may get
their money for the grain early in
the year without having to wait
until they can get it to the limited
number of licensed warehouses in
the state, as required by the gov
eminent before purchase, will be
made to M. H. Houser, zone agent
of the federal food administration
for the northwest, by the State
Council of Defense as the result of
consideration of grain shipping
problems by the executive COM
mittee.
Under the governments present
rules, no money is paid for grain
until it is delivered at terminals,
and 1t must be in licensed ware
houses before government agents
are allowed to buy it. This
practice, the defense council feels,
works an injustice on Idaho
farmers, as the shortage of ware
houses necessitates delay before
they can comply with the rules and
get the cash for their grain.
The committee will also request
that the government make pay
ment for the grain as soon as it is
ready for the market.
L. w. Fluharty, director of the
extension department, who recent.
ly took trip to Washington, re-
ported 10 the executive committee
that the federal officials stated
there is no way in which grain can
be purchased at present, except
under the rules requiring delivery
at terminals and at licensed ware
houses.
Mr.. Fluharty reported that
Senator Nugent had had every as
surance from the government off
Gals in charge that plenty of freight
cars would be available in which
to move the wheat.

Are You One of Them9

There are a great many people who
would be very much benefited by
taking Chamberlain's Tablets for a
weak or disOrdered stomach. Are YOU
one of them? Mrs. M. r. Scarf.
Baldwinsville, N. Y, relates her ex-
perience in the use of these tablets:
II had a bad spell with my stomach
about six months ago, and was troub-
led for two or three weeks with gas
and severe paius in the pit of nv
stomach. Our druggist advised me
to take Cham berlain's TABLETS. I
took bottle home and the first dose
relieved me wonderfully, and l kept
on taking them until l was cured"
These tablets do not relieve pain, but
after the pain has been relieved NAV
prevent its recurrence.

Germans opened FIRE with many great
naval guns which throw shells l8 to
30 miles behind the allied lines
The Germans used large forces Of
their finest troops and outnumhered
the allies at points o: contact. How.
eyer, the slaughter inflicted upon
them by American machine Runners
was more than they could Withstand
at some places and they were forced
to fall back, losing in one Instance
the first day 500 men captured
1t became evident the purpose Of
the Germans was TO eliminate the
Rheims salient, menace Verdun from
the west, and by securing possession
Of the whole right bank Of the Marne
use that stream TO protect their left
flank in future drive on Paris. 10
the first three days the Germans
claimed they had taken $4,000
prisoners.
d is estimated at London that
between July Is and IS, the allies
had inflicted 100, 900 casualties upon
the Germans 10 this drive.
Reports the moroing Of July IS
stated that the Germans had arrived
within five miles of the important !
railway junction Of Epernay the
capture Of which would compel the
French to give up the Rheims salient.
Epernay is on the Marine directly
south Of Rheims.
LATER. Reports last night IN
Heated that the commander Of the
allies had started an offensive on the
west between the Marpe and the
Alsne the morning of July is 10 time
TO counter the German thrust,
relieve pressure on Epernsy and save
Rheims. Strong American and French
forces, striking suddenly from the
west on 25-mile front extending
north from Chateau Thierry, broke
Into the German lines, capturing
many prisoners, guns, and material,
and taking territory miles 10 depth.

VOTERS should make note of the
fact that the state superintendent
of public instruction advocates the
adjustment of her Office, as pro-
posed in an amendment to be sub
mitted to the voters at the general
election this fall. A similar amend
ment was submitted four years ago
and was defeated because the peo-
pie did not understand it. The
reason the Office should be abolish
ed is that it unnecessarily dupli-
Gates the office of commissioner of
education. The latter appointive Of
fee was created by legislative en-
actment about six years ago, with
the desire and expectation that the
people would amend the constitu-
ton to abolish the Office of super
intendent at the subsequent
election, which was not done. The
state does not need both Offices.
If the people do not abolish the
office of~superintendent the next
Legislature should abolish that of
commissioner.

and west sides of the Rheims salient
and along the. American front on the
Marine westward as far as Chateau
Thlerry, total front of. about IS
miles. The attack was preceded by
a bombardment Tanks were used
in the advance in the face of allied
artillery fire. Pontoon bridges were
thrown across the Marne on which
crossings were effected at several
points. Gains were made on both
sides of the Rheims salient the first
two days, but in bitter fighting some
captured positions were retaken by
the French and an American army
corps under General Llggett. Italian
troops aided in resisting the enemy
east OF Rheims.

One Kind of German.

idaho Daily Statesman
Foolish talk is still heard occas-
ionally to the effect that we are not
at war with the German people,
but instances like the sinking OF
the Canadian hospital ship Liam
dovey Castle on June II should
convince even the most skeptical
that the poison of Prussianism has
been absorbed into the blood of the
whole German nation. Deeds Of
this kind are not done habitually
on government order without the
approval of the people whom that
government represents.
1t is true, of course, that some of
the German people, unhappily
small minority, disapprove of the
policy of ruthlessness and fright
fulness, but all the German people,
whether willing or unwilling, are
fighting US, and they will keep up
the fight just as long as their lead
ers can deceive them into the be-
lief that they have a chance to win.
The Prussian spirit must be
whipped out of the German peo-
pie before we can live with them
in peace and safety. At present
the German government and the
German people are one and the
same thing. There is only one
kind of German today, so far as
the United States is concerned,
and that is an enemy German. 1t
matters little that a man is a
Junker, Liberal or a Socialist.
So long as he contributes in any
way toward Germany's staying
power in the war, he is our enemy.

CONGRESS may yet fix the prices
of substitutes. The subject is
being agitated and Senator Borah
of Idaho, once opposed, now favors
regulatory measures. With the
prices of wheat and wheat flour
fixed, probably no one, who has
noticed the high prices of substi-
tutes and wondered at them, will
object to seeing the prices reduced
and then fixed.
