BUY THAT BOND TOMORROW.

BUY THAT BOND TOMORROW.
The Liberty loan campaign begins
tomorrow, and those in charge in La
tab county have everything in readi-
ness to do the work promptly and
efficiently. The assessments nave
been worked out on an entirely fair
and equitable basis, at the expense
of much time and thought, all given
9ratultously 1t is now up to you, Mr..
Citizen, to do the rest. You know
your duty and there should be no
side-stepping, or equivocating. Just
step up and do the manly thing by
buying your quota of bonds. Do it
early in the campaign-on the open
ing day, if possible. You will thus be
lending your influence to the work
from the start.
If you have an inclination to dodge
the issue and not do your just share,
stop to consider a little while, and
figure out just what such an attitude
means. We can tell you what it
means. 1t means that you are not
willing to do the fair thing by your
country, to start with, and that you
place a higher value on your dollars
than you do on the lives and comfort
of the soldier boys who are in France
fighting for you-for all of us. Sew
eral hundred of those brave boys are
from Latah county. They are boys
that you have known for years, and
they are giving up home and oppor-
tunity, and possibly life, in order to
guarantee for you and for your child
rem a perpetuation of Americas free
government and free institutions and
to protect them from the grinding
heel of the Hun, which has crushed
much of Europe.
Can you do less than your share
and retain a clear conscience? It's
up to you.

Germany and her subservant tool,
Austria, know full we'll. what Am
erica's peace terms are and the sooner
they decide to accept those terms, the
more men they will have left to go
to work to meet the expense of re-
pairing, in so far as work and money
can, the damage wrought in Belgium
and France. Germany will have that
little job ahead of her after the war
is over, and the sooner she shows a
tendency to get at that job the better
for her.
"Here in Idaho the non-partisan
leaders talk patriotism till they are
black in the face. Over in North Da-
kota, they defeated a resolution which
had for its purpose the endorsement
of President Wilson in his great work
in this war. Though the non-parti-
sans did not cast the vote at the
primaries they expected, these leaders
of socialism and anarchy must be
fought to the last ditch, until it is no
longer profitable for men to go out
and organize the farmers or anyone
else on a commission basis of 81 per
head. When this is no longer profit
able, their damnable work will cease
in Idaho and their misrepresentation
and seditious utterances will be a
thing of the past.'-Frank R. Good
hg, republican candidate for U. S.
senator, short term.

During the II months that the war
has been in progress, the expense bill
hoe ovaraued ahout ono billion dollars
Der month. The August expenses
footed up almost two billions and the
next six months or more will probably
see a continual increase in the ex-
3ense account, the years expenses
going above the twenty
our billions estimated as necessary.
This, however, should not be d~iscour-
lging in any sense of the word. 1t
imply means that the war business
S being speeded up, and that the
Iun will be brought to his knees that
much sooner, and the loss Of life and
expenditure of money brought to an
