There is not one Idle or needless
deputy In the Clearwater county
court house today. The deputy
sheriff is deputy auditor and does
an honest days work every day.
This is VIM. Gillespie. VIM. Chand-
Ter is deputy county treasurer and
when not needed In this Office helps
in any other ONCE where there Is
work to do. Joseph Molloy is dep
uty assessor but he. too. is gen.
eral utility man. and does whatever
other departments need. Thus is
the county economically managed.
and cost Of government reduced. 1t
is making the tax dollar do Its full
duty. Mr.. Molloy Is an expert map
man and has supplied many humid
reds of dollars of maps for the
county at not one penny of cost to
the people. Do you appreciate what
this means to the taxpayers of the
county? Look 1t up and see what
such work has cost other counties,
and you will better appreciate the
full meaning of republican eff1-
cheney. Are you ready to discharge
these faithful employees and employ
those who have proven unfaithful
when you did trust them?

Some twenty odd years ago Sen
ator Fred T. Dubois. then repub-
lican leader in Idaho, went off on
free silver and took the republican
machinery Of the state with him
into the fusion camp. There were
then but few sound money republic
cans in Idaho. and Dubois said it
made no difference II they did want
to vote for Mckinley, they would
have no right. And these political
pirates saw to 1t that Mckinley
electors were not ON the ballot. 1t
was high-handed outrage, amount
ing to Acknowledgement. The SUI
preme court Of Idaho compelled the
powers to place Mckinley electors
on the official ballot and thus per-
init the few sound money republi-
cans to vote as their consciences
dictated. This time 1t Is the demo-
Gratis who are being disfranchised.
And 1t is certainly a matter of grave
import to every man. woman and
child In America. For when the
time comes, II 1t ever does, that the
individual IL deprived Of his right
to vote or to worship az he pleases,
the end Of the Republic is in sight.
and liberty is doomed. So let us be
serious.

The Republican does not like to
see rotten public service just be-
cause the officers may be democrats
or some other. political opinion. II
is not the part Of good citizens to
encourage officials in our own party
in wrong-doing, and that is why we
cannot see why local democrats will
stand by silently while the demo
cratic county chairman gouges the
people out of road funds. How
much does party gain by winking
at public waste. or tolerating pub
lie ineficiency? Show your color

The party brand counts for moth
ing except 1t be entrusted to men
of integrity for translation into the
sort OF government we want. We
have the same laws undr the repub-
licans in our county that were in
force when the democrats were in
power in Clearwater county, but
the county was wet then and has
been dry under four years republic
can rule. The difference is not in
our laws, but In the men elected by
the people to enforce the law. So
in the matter of high or low taxes,
At all depends on the sort Of men
ON the Job as county commissioners.
Under the same law the democrats
wasted money and grated the peo-
pie. The republicans administered
the county honestly and paid the
democratic debt. The same old DEM
ocratic crowd is again attempting
to get in control of the county.

II don't take much interest in
politics." said man to us recently.
Now this man does not mean to
do less than his full duty, but the
truth is he is civic Stacker, and
for all Of him this government
would go to the bow vows. He is
not helping to make this nation a
decent nation for himself and his
family; he is not doing one thing
to preserve the liberty and the
other blessings bequeathed to him
at an awful cost in blood and mon
ey by his ancestors. If the respon-
sibility he neglects or refuses to
carry were not carried by others
who do take the interest, his liberty
and freedom and rights would be
lost to him ere he knew what was
going on. Let us remember that
Eternal vigilance is the price OF
liberty"

Conservation measures applied BY
the American people enabled the Unit
ed States to ship to the Allied peoples
and to our own forces overseas 141.-
OOO, 600 bushels Of wheat and 844, 00O-
600 pounds Of meat during the past
year. valued in all at 81, 40O, 600, 900.
This was accomplished In the face Of q
serious food shortage in this country,
bespeaking the wholeheartedness and
patriotism with which the American
people have met the food crisis abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, in let
ter to President Wilson, explains how
the situation was met The voluntary
conservation program fOstered by the
Food Administration enabled the piling
up. Of the millions Of bushels Of wheat
during 1918 and the shipment Of
meat during 1918.
The total value Of all food ship
ments to Allied destinations amounted
to 81, 100000, 900, all this food being
bought through or In collaboration
with the Food Administration. These
figures are all based on official reports
and represent food exports for the
harvest year that closed June 80, 1918

Good schools are of first impor-
tance. They attract people with
families. and are good business
investment. If people are drawn to
our town because of our excellent
schools 1t means that they must
have homes in which to live, and
they must live, which means that
they must spend some money with
our merchants. So let us look at
our schools from purely business
standpoint and appreciate their val
ue to our town. Encourage people
to come to Orofino to educate their
children.

OF these cereals our shipments Of
the prime breadstuffs In the fiscal year
1017-10 to Allied destinations were |:
Wheat 131, OOO. 600 bushels and Of rye
1890, 600 bushels, q total Of IA, 9OO,-
600 bushels
The exports to Allied destinations
during the fiscal year 1916-17 were !:
Wheat 135,1OO.OOO bushels and rye
100000 bushels, total Of 1877, 4OO. 600
bushels. In addition some 10000, 600
bushels of 1917 wheat are now In port
for Allied destinations or en- route
thereto. The total shipments to Allied
countries from our last harvest Of
wheat will be therefore, about 141 ,OOO,-
600 bushels. or q total Of $4,000, 600
bushels of prime breadstuffs. In ad-
dition to this we have shipped some
10000, 600 bushels to peutrals depend
ent upon us, and we have received
some imports from other quarters.
..This accomplishment of our people
In this matter stands out even more
clearly II we bear in mind thar we had
available In the fiscal year 1916-17
from net carry-over and as surplus
over. our normal consumption about
200 600, 600 bushels Of wheat which We
were able to export that year without
trenching on our home loaf" Mr..
Hoover said. "This last year, however,
owing to the large failure Of the 1917
wheat crop. we had available from net
carry-over and production and imports
only just about our normal consump-
tion. Therefore our wheat shipments
to Allied destinations represent ap-
proximately savings from our own
wheat bread.
.'These figures, however, do not fully
convey the volume Of the efforr and
sacrifice made during the past year
by the whole American people. De-
spite the magnificent effort Of our S.ri-
cultural population In planting Z much
increased acreage In 1917. sot only was
there q very large failure In wheat,
but also the corn failed to mature prop
erly, and our corn Is our dominant crop.
