A STAND FOR RIGHT

One of the several contributors to
a nearby contemporary has decided that
the Free Press finds itself in a peculiar
predicament, by reason of alleged en-
dorsements of certain candidates for
public office in Idaho county by the
so-called Non-partisan league, and ex-
presses eagerness to know what will be
the future attitude of the Free Press
toward the Non-partisans.
The Idaho County Free Press is in a
position to know that the candidates
mentioned are not tied hand and foot
to any league or faction, and for that
reason it sees no purpose in not extend
ing to them such slight measure of sup
port as is within the power of this news
paper
The Idaho County Free Press will
vigorously continue its opposition to
every socialistic and pro-Hun program
that any man or group of men attempt
to thrust upon the community, the
county, or the state.
This newspaper has not been guilty
of lending its columns to the propagan-
dist of questionable motive.
Any publication guilty of placing
mercenary motives ahead of a stand
for Americanism and rectitude, is I'M
worthy of the name of newspaper, and
for such action should receive the ever
lasting condemnation of the public.

The Ice Situation.

During the past ten days the
town has suffered from a short
age of ice on two different oc-
casions, due to one breakdown
and the shortage Of experience
ed>labor. The government also
has found it necessary to COM
mander ice from the only local
plant running, for cars of meat
in transit, which could not be
carried safely to destination
without re-icing. With this sit
uation it becomes necessary Tor
everybody to take care of their
ice supply and make it run as
far as possible. Ice, in a town
where the water is supplied
from hydrants, is a necessity
Few families have wells. Milk
and butter cannot be preserved
without ice, and these are the
principal diets of many fami-
lies. An ice famine would en-
tail untold hardship during
these scorching days and every
BODY must be economical in
the use of it or some will suffer
because they cannot get it.

John Mitchell, the great la
Dor leader, said recently in an
address at New York: "The
work that one man does here
at home may seem to him very
small, too small to be measur-
ed on the battle front, but it is
only through the toll of the in
dividual workers, each doing
his part, that the big job of
completing the war savings
fund in time required to give
the government the use Of the
money to win the war, can be
done. Every member of the in
dustrial army every wage earn
er has before him a great duty
to perform but the duty OF
providing the money comes
first" Who cannot help win
the war this way?

"Fight Like He'll"

IF you must fight, fight like
hell, were the parting words
of a Kentucky mother to her
two sons when they entrained
recently for Camp Zachary
TAYLOR. Her parting with them
was expressive and patriotic
evidently she meant what she
said.
Handing each a Bible, she
admonished them to Read
these books. Be good boys and
your mother will be proud OF
YOU. Your grandfather and
father before you were SOL
diers, and if you must fight,
fight like hell
The scene at the depot was
witnessed by a number OF per-
sons and, while the woman
showed no emotion, tears gath
cred in the eyes of many OF the
spectators:
Women display Spartan
courage in all wars. They
have no patience with the
Stacker. Brave, courageous
men are the only kind that ap-
peal to them. The mother
may love her boy ever so dearly
but she would not have him be
a coward for his life. The wo-
men are behind this country IN
this war and they are going to
win it. Nc matter how great
the sacrifice, the war must be
won. And how much does it
mean to the women? Let the

War Savings Drive

NJ campaign carried on for
raising war funds in Mississippi
has exceeded in Importance the
present War-Savings campaign
and the state has a huge re-
sponsibility in the task OF Sc
curing loans through the pur-
chase of savings stamps to help
carry on the war. The amount
assigned to Mississippi has been
divided among the several
counties in proportion to
wealth, as has been the other
loans through the sale OF llber-
ty bonds and Red Cross sub
scriptions. The merchants,
bankers and business men have
in many instances laid aside all
their personal business and are
devoting practically all their
time to pushing these drives.
The responsibility for the sue
cess of the War-Savings drive,
however, does not lie with the
county director and his assist
ants. 1t is the individual cltl-
zens all the way down to the
child who can subscribe but 70
cents, that will make success or
failure. In this campaign the
people must realize that the
war is serious and costs money
and that every citizen must buy
all the stamps he can up TO
$1,000, even if he does without
some of the things he feels that
he must have to make himself
and his family comfortable.
The boys in the trenches must
be taken care of and it is our
lob to do it. What are you do
ing as your part? 1t is a per-
sonal question; answer it hon
estly with yourself and with the
bows over there.

Cotton Price Fixing.

A meeting of delegates IN
New York City this week, rep
resenting about 200 cotton
mills was held for the purpose
of discussing with the chair
man of the war service commit
tee of the National Council OF
American Cotton Manufacture
ers the question of fixing prices.
The report of the proceedings
of the committee state that
"the conference was called as
the result of the delay on the
part of the cotton men in specl-
flying the minimum at which
they could turn out their pro-
ducts, thus enabling the federal
authorities to prevent skyrock-
citing Of prices and profiteer-
ing"
The situation in the cotton
market makes it imperative
that the government take some
steps to prevent the break IN
prices reaching a level that will
he disastrous to the cotton
grower. This crop is being
raised at a cost far in excess
of any previous crop. All
food stuffs and labor are exor-
bitantly high. The gathering
of the crop may be at a cost
that is prohibitive. The farm
er finds himself in competition
with the government on the
question of labor. Agents are
securing the country for hands
for government work ana
prices are being paid that the
farmer cannot reach. He finds
himself wholly unable to COM
pete with contractors who are
working on the "cost-plus
basis, and get more out of their
contracts when they pay high
er prices for their labor. With
this condition the government
should take the matter in hand
and fix the price OF cotton
not under thirty-fve cents as
the minimum. With an already
surplus of three millions OF
bales that cannot be placed on
the market for lack of the nee
essary shipping, the cotton mar
ket will be extremely panlcky
this fall unless the government
does get behind it and hold
the price up. The south should
have the same consideration
that the west is receiving IN the
fixing of prices of her grains.

The registration of the young
men of the country on June the
9Th disclosed the fact that
there has been some lively mar
rying going on during the past
few months. In this county
forty per cent of the young
men who came in to register
had married before they rassh-
ed their majority. Just N1at
all this marrying means
only be answered BY the young
people themselves, ana they
of course will lay the entire
blame at the door of Cupid's
court. Others, however, have
been heard to hint that the
Ireal cause is the war; the young
people want to plight their
troth before the boys are call
ed some with the hope that the
contamination of their vows
will keep the BOYS out of the
war, but in this hope it now ap-
pears they will be sadly disap-
pointed. Uncle Sam is going to
have an army, a big army, and
these young fellows will soon
find themselves in class one OF
the selective draft. And that
means war.

Striking Example Of Devotion Of Sol
diers OF French Army to
Superiors.


With the French Armies.-One Of the
most striking examples of the mems
devotion to their officers in the records
of the French army has just become
known, although it occurred on May %.
Among the units of French African
fighters are several battalions of joy
suil'' youths whose records before en-
tering military service were besmirch-
ed and who are now given chance to
redeem themselves on the battlefield.
During recent action the "joy-
suil" fought with remarkable ardor.
Their motto is death is necessary"
Assailed by overwhelming numbers,
one battalion fought hand to hand with
the enemy until forced to retreat to
conform their line with the units on
the left.
1t was here on May % that group
Of "joysuil" saw their lieutenant fall
in a ravine. -Four Of them refused to
retreat and fought off the enemy with
grenades until one of them could shoul-

their shoulders the four retreated TWEEN

morning to bury him.

TAKE SAVINGS or LIFETIME
Sailor and Wife Did Not Know They
Could Not Take Gold Out OF
Country.

San Francisco. The savings of a
lifetime of sailor and hts wife have
been seized by federal officials because
the couple did not know of President
Wilson's order forbidding the taking of
gold out of the country.
Because Mrs. Ricardo Rodriguez
feared banks, she persuaded her hus-
band to carry their entire fortune,
1885, with him on a trip to Central
America. The officers found it and
took possession. Because Of the ma
ture of the case permission Is to be
asked of Secretary McAdoo to return
the money.

BIG CUT IN IOWA FIRE LOSS
Half a Million Reduction In January
and February According to State
Marshal Roc.

Des Moines, March 19.-The Iowa
fire loss during the months of Janu-
airy and February of the present year
is more than 100000 less than it was
for the same months in 1917.
So says Ole o. Roe, the state fire
marshal. THUS far in March" said
Mr.. Roe, the repoFs indicate a light
fire loss for this month also"
There are rumors occasionally OF
fires originating from the designs OF
alien enemies, but no definite evidence
upon this point has a yet come to the
attention of the department, the fire
marshal says. Last year warnings
were sent out to the authorities in the
various cities and towns of the state,
suggesting that special precautions
be taken with reference to the guard
ing of buildings in which grain and
other foodstuffs were stored. Since
that time very few fires involving
of that character have taken
place.

MOI! WELL WRAPPED
MAIL TO FRANCE ARRIVES SAD
LY DiLAPIDATED.

In addressing mail to members of
the American Expeditionary forces in
France, care should be taken to write
the given name in full, preceded by
the necessary title, such as private"
sergeant" etc.
Postmaster Henry S. Rosecrans of
Oskaloosa so advises.
ut is particularly enjoined that
letters. postcards and packages be
not addressed with lead pencil, and
that every piece of mail may bear
the name and address of the sender,
so that in case of non-delivery mail
matter may be returned" says Mr..
Rosecrans. Aa@
"WeIl made envelopes retain the
addresses, while those of poor mater
ial do not, as the writing becomes in
distinct.
Packages continue to arrive in
Europe in a dilapidated condition. If
senders do not use the wooden boxes
with screw top, they should certainly
use heavy paper, canvas or cloth as a
wrapping for packages"
