Politicians to Hooverize

Boise Idaho politicians are going
to Hooyerize this winter. The Demo-
Gratis apparently have decided not to
hold their annual Jackson day
banquet because of the war, and the
Republicans may give up their
Lincoln day love feast for the same
reasons, 1t was said Wednesday by
members of the party.
Ii the Lincoln day banquet is to be
held no plans have been laid for 1t,
insofar as could be learned.
According to the Pocatello Tribune,
w. C. Gregory, secretary of the
Republican state central committee,
has been advised by Evan Evans,
state chairman, that the committee
meeting called for January 81 at
Boise has been postponed until
February IL, with view to having
the committeeman get together the
day before the annual banquet, but
Boise Republicans have learned
nothing of the change of dates, If
made.

The great drive on the
western front last April, when
Hindenburg retreated and 40
German divisions were put
out of commission, was truS-
trated by the interference OF
the politicians. French sena-
tors meddled with the great
campaign and the result was
that what might have been
the decisive battle OF 1917
was not, and now the cause is
found to have been politics.
1t is a lesson for our coun-
try that should teach the Peo-
pie to demand patriotism
instead of party service, to
demand that men of the high
est type serve in public office
for honor and duty's sake.
Popular government is at
stake. Taxes must be kept
down. Industries must be
kept going. This is not the
time for the demagog and sell
fish plotter to get his hand
into the pockets of the tax
payer.
Men must be found to &C

in city and county govern.

the shady trickery of spoil'
politics, and the indecency o
stirring up class hatred.

In resolutions adopted Friday, the
state board OF education pointed out
the immediate need of new building
costing S150,000 at the Lewiston
state normal, to replace the building
which was destroyed two months ago
by fire. 1t was agreed by the board
members that the state should be
asked to appropriate $4,000 for the
proposed new building to be used 10
conjunction with the $84,00 which
the state will receive from the insur-
ance companies. The board expressed
itself as not in favor of rebuilding
the structure which was destroyed by
flames, the members agreeing that it
would be better to ask the state to
build anew.

ALL COAL DEALERS PUT UNDER

All coal jobbers, brokers, selling
and purchasing agents and wholesale
dealers have been put under license
by President Wilson on recommends

who issued regulations carefully cir
cumscribing the charges to be made
for their services.
While recognizing that legitimate
jobbers are essential to the conduc.

ministrator said, affiliated companies
organized solely for receiving the
jobbers' margin, the swapping of

NEW RULING AS TO THE RETURN
OF MAIL.

after five Tor tenn days return to
-7" will no longer be obeyed By
the United States postal authorities
unless the letter is general delivery,
for a new ruling has been made that
the return of mail, which cannot be
delivered for lack of address or ina
bility to locate individuals addressed,
shall be returned promptly to the re-
turn card in the left-hand corner OF
the envelope.
The routine has formerly been to
hold all letters in the general deliV-
cry department of the postoffice for
ten days following the receipt, if the
local address is incorrect and the
names of the parties addressed can
not be found in the directory.
General delivery letters so marked,
will, of course, continue to be held
for the customary ten days, and any
general letters without return card OF
address will be put in the general
delivery section for ten days pending
advertising, after which they will be
held for the two weeks required by
the postal laws.
The new ruling will clear the
mails of much congestion. Quanti-
ties of advertising and other matter,
carelessly addressed, is held in the
mails for days, according to the ruiz
ings which have been in operation
heretofore.

BUSY TIMES ON L. & N.

These are indeed busy days for the
L. & N. people. The yardmen and
train crews in the local yards are
especially full of pep" handling the
long freights that pass in and out OF
the yards daily. The train dispatch
ing. force have all they can do, while
all the other departments are equally
busy.
Passing through the yards on a
business mission few days ago THE
NEWS man was stalled" several
times by long freight trains, whose
right of way he did not care to dis
pute. In an interval of waiting he
was informed by one of the yard
switchmen that he had seen fifteen
freight trains go in and out of the
years nearly every day. Several OF
them were so long and heavy, al
though mostly "empties" that two
and sometimes three, engines were
required to get them through the
yards. Wednesday evening one
double-header train of "empties'
nearly halfia mile in length passed
through the yards. These are surely
busy days for the.L /. & N!

PLAN TO MOBILIZE MOTOR ME-
CHANICS.

Just as the country was organized
through the medical associations to
furnish at the proper times the ply
sicians for the United States as they
are needed, so it is now planned TO
organize the country to supply the
motor machines as they are needed.
The details of the plan still rest in
Washington, but enough has been
made known here to enable the CIV
ing of a fairly complete outline.
The motor mechanics are to be Sc
cured through the automobile deal
ers and repair men. The National
Dealers Association is the central or
ganization through which the Fed
eral Government will act. In every
State an accurate census will be
made of all the motor mechanics,
They will be organized and classified
and when in the immediate or more
distant future the Government needs
more auto repair men, they will be
called upon through the organlza-
tions.
The central plan is not to cripple
any particular industry, but to ap-
portion the quotas fairly and equita-
bly,. When men are called out 1T is
calculated that the motor repair
shops and garages engaged no men
to take their places without express
consent of the Government. Thus
the motor repair shops and garages
may have to run on limited working
forces. 49,

MODERATE MEANS AND THE
BOND.

The call for a third Liberty Loan
within a year comes as challenge
to the patriotism of the man of small
or of moderate means, and, on the
part even of conscientious people,
there is a tendency to murmur, II
have done as much as l can afford to
do and now the very rich must bear
the burden of the war;" 1t is obvi-
Gus that by standing back for some
one else to act no man ever further
ed a cause. The sole question for
the Individual is whether he can re-
spect himself if he neglects the call
of his country. For his own domes-
tic ethics it is irrevelant to inquire
what his neighbor has done or in
tends to do. At the present mo-
ment, every available dollar which
| ought to be lent to the Government.
The average man or woman who
draws a salary, ordinarily puts what
he can into Savings Bank, the great
old-fashioned symbol of thrift. The
Liberty Loan offers an even safer in
vestment, with better interest as
sured than most savings Banks prom
Use. You will be helping yourself if
out of these last months salary you
lend the salvage to Uncle Sam. 1t will
be for your own rainy day.
'Ah!" says the doubter, "but in
terest compounds in a Savings Bank.
The sum grows, as have been often
told, while you sleep!" Why not
watch it grow! That will be a gayer
game. Each time that you cut d
coupon from Liberty Bond, put the
amount into Savings Bond. 1t will
crafty you to watch the growth of
your account, especially if you have
taken enough bonds to give good re-
turns semi-annually. 1t will be d
comfortable thing to say some day,
THE bulk of my money I have in
Government Bonds, such a safe in
vestment!"
In the years of peace which fol-
| lowed the Civil War, many small in

The Third Loan offers the best Op-
