effort must be made to instill hisn
ideals into the coming generation.
Superintendent c. Il. Beach Of
Olympia said, War work has
aided our school children. Besides
| acting as missionaries to their
fathers and mothers and gaining
their respect for Mr.. Hoover's Ia

the soldiers, may have more"

fore, that the war Is over and that all
that remains is to frame the articles
OF peace between the belligerent pow

due to the superb leadership Of Pres

peace terms from the defeated enemy.

can appreciate the absurdity or these

RnPoRr or RoARD oF INQUIRY.

Below we publish the report of the
board OF inquiry which convened in
Montpelier Tuesday morning, Nov. s
for the purpose of determining the
cause and placing the responsibility
for the accident resulting in the death
of j. b. Piana, at a point one-fourth
of mile west OF Lava Hot Springs
station. about 2 m. ON Oct. 31st,
1918. The board was composed Of
r. ". Sheldon, representing the pub
lie, and J. e. Davis, assistant superin-
tendent, w. II. Murray, district fore
man. and w. ]. Cruise, claims adjust
er. The board finds:
That train, Extra, West, consisted
of engine $500. 33 loaded freight cars
caboose, approximately 274O tons, in
charge of Conductor G B. Moon. head
brakeman H. R. Wagner, rear brake

while moving at q speed Of approx
mately twenty miles per hour passing

b. Piana, tresspaEser, who was stand
ing in o STOPPING position, between

ing ap coal Freight extra 5S5 east
had just passed on the eastward track
and that the rear end of this train
was approximately two hundred
(2Oo) feet east of the point Of acct
dent when Piana was struck. The
railroad at this point is double track !:
grade seventy-eight hundrsdths, OF
one per cent down IN the direction
Extra $500 west was moving: track
two degree curve to the right
We further find that regulation
whistles for station and crossing were
sounded approximately one-half and
one-fourth mile east of the point Of
accident and that the alarm whistles
signals were ringing and had been
ringing continuously from Lava Hot
Springs station TO the point of acci-
dent the weather was clear and calm.
When engineeri first observed Piana
he was standing between the tracks.
apparently waiting for the eastward
train to pass, 30 that he could cross
the eastward track, but after the east
train had cleared this point, he turned
around and walked upon the west
ward track and began picking up coal.
The engineer Immediately blew the
alarm whistle signal and applied the
automatic air brakes in emergency.
After hearing all the testimony,
carefully weighing and anaIyzing
same, we conclude that the Oregon
Short Line Railroad Is In no way re-
sponsible for the accident and that
the members of the train and engine
crew were in their proper places. at
tending TO their duties and no blame
is attached to them The accident
could have been avoided BY j. b. Pi-
ana, as had he looked he could have
seen the train rpapoaehing for at
least seven hundred (7001 feet.

A HUGE sUCoEss.

According to the figures given out
fn Washington the people Of the
United States oyersubscribed the
fourth Liberty loan to the extent OF
more than $500 900 900. This is ''go-
ing over the top" with a vengeance
and IL in strong contrast with the ac-
tion OF the German people. who al
lowed the latest Hun war loan to fail.
The Germans were losing in the field
and they would not part with their
money under such circumstances.
They have proved weak where the
patriotic Americans are strong If
our soldiers had met with a reverse
on the western front and the war
took on a gloomy aspect the people of
this country would have put up their
last dollar. In addition many Of them
would have followed 1t over the ocean

and save the country from the humil-
iation OF defeat The difference be-
tween those. who fight for and fnan-
cially support tyranical form OF
government and those who live in q
land OF freedom is thus plainly
shown. In the early days OF the late
Liberty loan campaign there was

PEOPLE ARE URGED TO STORE
THEIR WINTER. COAL NOW,

Boise. Nov 6.--State Fuel Admin
istrator C. C. Anderson, through the
press and by letters to the coal deal
ers throughout the state, is endeavor-
ing to organize a Store your winter
coal now campaign throughout
Southern and Southeastern Idaho.
Early in the year the campaign for
storing winter coal was inaugurated
by the former Fuel Administrator and
was attended BY great deal Of sue
cess. Dealers generally reported that
sales of coal for storage purposes for
domestic use wree larger during the
months of April, May. and June than
ever before in Idaho. However, It
has recently developed that the re-
ceipts Of eoaIin the state to the local
dealers have been so great that unless
more coal bought during the pres
emit month. orders with coal operators
at the present held, will have to be
cancelled, as the local dealers feel
that they cannot afford to hold any
greater amount than at present in
storage.
The campaign with the sugar fac
tories has now commenced and will be
IN full swing by the firste Of Decem-
Der. After that time and for the sue-
ceeding sixty days. from present indi-
the coal equipment assigned
70 idaho under ordinary circumstan-
see vili be largely kept occupied By
