THE PRESIDENT AT HOME.

President Wilson reached Boston
Sunday night. While no v.her
president OF the United States ever
left the country during his term OF
Office, President Wilson is merely at
home on a visit and expects to re-
turn to Paris about March 5. Despite
opposition to President Wilson leav-
ing the country to attend the peace
conference, there are none but who
give thanks that the trip to and from
Paris was made in safety and with
out mishap. 1t will be the same
when he begins his journey back to
the French metropolis. A busy time
is ahead of the president during the
short period of his stay in Washing
ton. There are many things to claim
his time and thought and he will not
likely forget for a moment what is
going on across the water. He is
still at war and his war work is not
nearly finished.
Doubtless President Wilson will
pay little attention to the opposition
to his policies in dealing with war
questions He perhaps feels that
there is much to be done and some
body must do it, If he does It to the
best of his ability. he will have done
well. Those who oppose him. and
who wish to make political or per.
sonal capital out of his absence from
the United States. possibly could not
do any better. And therefore Presi-
dent Wilson can work conscientiously
and without hindrance in the archi-
lecture Of peace that will be last
ing in the world.

THE LEGISLATURES AND GOOD
ROADS.

To man at a distance it looks
as if the Legislature is not going to-
pass any good roads legislation, if it
can help it. The matter is now up
to the ways and means committee of
the house and that committee can
prevent action ut this session if it is
so disposed and ii was charged last
week in the general assembly that
the commitment of the question to
the committee was done in an effort
to block legislation. The News can
not understand how the members of
the general assembly will be able to
explain themselves if nothing is done
looking to permanent roads in South
Carolina, nor can it understand the
objection to the legislation, which
seems to be confined largely by the
Ii we mistake not, sentiment all over
the state is for permanent roads and
if nothing is done at this session of
the general assembly a lot of ex-
planning is going to be in order.
Representative Horton told The
News Saturday that the amendments
to the original bill Just had to be
voted down" If they appeared OBJ
jectionable. we do not blame the
members of the assembly for voting
against them. but why did not these
representatives who objected offer
something that was better? 1t is a
fact that the plan of the South Caro-
lima state automobile association
adopted at a convention in Column
bia in December went to the general
assembly in a crude form and the
objections to certain features of that
plan were perhaps we'll sustained.
but it would seem the natural course
for the legislature in those premises
would be to smooth out the rough
places and patch up the bill to suit
itself. The legislature Will not have
done its duty to kill the good roads
law because it was Objectionable.
The legislature knows that the peo..
pie OF the state want permanent
roads and if one bill is objectiona BILE
it would he the wise course for the
legislature to prepare another with
the objections removed.
The general assembly has passed
no really important bills at the
present session and its course in the
matter OF good roads has not been
altogether pleasing. The News hopes
that it redeems itself during the
present week and puts over the
highway iegisiatiun This nope is
shared, We believe, by ninety per
cent OF the people OF the state. if not
by all people. No objection has ever
been raised to good roads in South
Carolina; the only opposition de
veloped has been concerning the
plan for getting the roads. and the
of the general assembly is
to find the plan that would he salts
factory to all the people, or to the
great majority

0RAssHoPPER FIGHT
SAVES $500. 900.
Reports From 4S Farmers Show
Effectiveness Of Camnasn
Against Pest In
Lewis County.

OF 81 replies to questionaires
sent out to farmers in all locali-
ties by County Farm Agent Wade,
as to the success of the grasshop-
per poison campaign carried on in
Lewis county through bis office
last spring, some 43 were reduc-
|ible to figures. which show a saw
ling in crops to the amount of $780,
1000. Since these 43 replies repre-
|sent hardly one-sixth Of the poi
|son used in the county for grass
hopper determinations and the
calculation is considered conser-
vative-it is evident that our
farmers are 100000 better off
than if the crusade against the
'hoppers had not been made.
In conducting this anti-grass-
hopper crusade in Lewis county,
1.-THE records Of the county agent s
|office show that 5000 pounds Of
arsenic was in the poison COM
pound which included $4,000
pounds of wheat bran, 1900 gal
Ions Of syrup and 1900 dozen lem
ons. All of which ente:led a cash
outlay Of between $4,000 and
$6, 900.
Further evidence Of the success
of this campaign was the derth of
grasshoppers in the county dur
ing the growing and maturing of
the present crop. and this in face
of the fact that before the poison
spreading was commenced few
farms could be found where vast
swarms Of the young 'hoppers
were not in evidence.
The present epidemic Of the pest
in this county came in from SUR
rounding counties. where no or
ganIized effort had been made
against it. and when it arrived
here the grain was too well matur-
ed to be damaged by the 'hoppers.

Ratliff Before State Equalization
Board.

Assessor Ratliff arrived home
Sunday evening from Boise where
he attended the meeting of tht
State Board of EQUALIZATION, ano
reports as follows:
They meet the second Monday
of August of each year to equalize
the assessments Of the state as be
tween counties. and to value anC
assess the public utilities of the
state. The county assessors were
requested by the governor to at
tend this meeting and with the
exception Of three or four, all OF
them were present. The governor
|called the names of the counties
in alphabetic order and each as
SCISSOR stepped upon the carpet
when his county was called to
answer all questions asked by any
member of the board. The ques-
tions and answers, and the alb
strscts Of the county auditors, re
vealed the fact that the assess
ment of the property of our state
lis getting to be as great farce as
lit. was before Ex- Governor Haw-
lev made his FIGHT for the full cash
value assessment.
The Board of EQUALIZATION de
clared this must be changed. and
consequently most of the assessors
expect raise on some classes Of
property. and especially on agri-
cultural land which in some coun-
ties is not assessed for more than
|2O Der cent of the real value.
Assessor Ratliff stopped be
tween trains in Baker, Ore, when
returning from Boise. and visited
his son. Leo. and wife. Leo is with
the Tri-State Terminal Company
Ex-Sheriff George Marshal be.

with the work and his new loca-
|tiOn.

Al goodly sprinkling Of natives,
who enjoyed the "doings' and
fratcrnizing of the visitors great

The party motored from here to
Winchester, and there, being
largely augmented by new arriv-
ais from Lewiston and numerous
members from prairie points, a
real evening of festivity was had
Ia picnic dinner on the lake
shore and later music, dancing
and speech making in the opera
house.
Two days were thus put in at
the several prairie townsville

Of the Lewiston Lodge of
