Leon Perrine, of Nezperce, took
first place in the pole vault and

The resumption Of American
tourist travel in Europe is fixed
for January, 1920. The fact that
foreign travel has not been per-
mitted has had the excellent re-
suit of making Americans better
acquainted with their own coun-
try. People who would naturally
under ordinary conditions have
taken European trips have learn
ed the beauty and possibilities of
Florida and the West. Before
the war American tourists spent
annually 100000 in Italy and
France. Since then great part
of this money has gone into Uncle
Sam s Golfers, or into different
branches of patriotic work. And
the remainder has helped to in
crease the circulation of money
iii our own country. If you can
afford a trip abroad next year,
well and good. But make sure
that you are not neglecting your
own country to do it. "SEE
AMERICA FIRST. !"

The Herald extends greeting
and all good wishes to the class
which graduates tonight from the
Nezperce High School-M Misses
Florence Stoufer, Edith Smith
and Mr.. Merwin Harding. What
we here say may seem common
place, but what we mean comes
from the heart of one who has
seen his own son pass through the
several stages of this grade and
high school life and step thence
into the broader arena; and we
believe we have full apprecia-
ton of what the transition is to
every young man and young
woman who goes that way. You
are not only finishing the work
Of the old home school breaking
away from it's environment-but
you are on the Threshold of a
life more apart from childhood's
home, when many of the little en-
dearing things that belong to you
in this home will be carefully,
folded away on memory's shelf,
to give place to the demands of
the less circumscribed field you
are entering. May the good an
gels, which have seen you safely
through to this stage, still attend
and steer your course to goal
that will bring honor and pride
to your old Alma Mater.

remembrance of the-cheerful and

mother presence mean in then.

1T MAKES A DIFFEREN CE
WHOSE OK.

Before President Wilson re
turned from his first trip tt
France with draft of the League
of Nations, he asked the senators
to, refrain from discussing this
question until he could meet with
them and talk the league over
with the committee on foreign re-
lations and explain it more in
detail in order that they might
have better understanding OF
what they were trying to do
What was the result Of his re-
quest? There were more hot air
explosions in that august body
during the next two weeks than
ever before in the same length of
time.
But now since that famous doc
ument has been amended so as to
try and meet the criticism Of our
best statesmen, some Of those
same senator's who were doing
the most talking and took the
greatest exception to the presi-
dent, even his asking them not
to discuss it until he could meet
and talk it over with them, have
now made requests that those
senators who have been opposing
the league keep mum on it until
they can have a caucus.
Before, they were left free and
encouraged by these same sena.
tors to make all the fuss they
could and find all the fault pos
sible because the president had
asked them not to. But now it
appears from distance that their
present move is political one
and that they are going to try
and bind them to vote as a unit
as much as possible, and a few are
trying to tell the rest how they
should vote when it comes up for
ratification.
The League Of Nations is not
a party issue and those senators
who are trying to make it one will
be sorry of it before they get |
through. The primary and sole
object of the League of Nations
is to prevent wars, and while it
may not be perfect, its intentions
are good and there is no doubt
now that it will assist, at least,
in what it is attempting to do.
Ours is not a military govern
ment, neither are our people
people, but instead
peace loving nation and people.
This does not mean that they will
not fight for their rights when
it is necessary, for this very class
Of people are the greatest fight
ers in the world when their rights
and freedom are at stake.
1t is our judgment that those
senators who are trying to make
this a political issue or who are
the league on general
will in the near future
find their private business de-
their attention and quit
public life. Either that or they
may find that the small salary
paid senator will not support
him in Washington and he will
have to retire to private life to
make something to keep himself
md family when he grows old.

STAND BY THE PRESIDENT.

Woodrow Wilson is more than
the President Of the United
States. He is Ambassador Extra
ordinary and Minister Plenipo-
tertiary to the Worlds Court. He
is more than party leader. He
is the leader Of the liberals Of all
nations. He is trying to put a
stop to the greatest war in his
tory and to put into effect the
greatest political conception that
ever entered the mind of man. He
mas been placed in the position
of arbiter Of the destiny of a
score of nations and Of the hap
p1ness of untold generations. He
is beset by conflicting claims, har-
assed and hampered by the most
powerful Of selfish interests. He
is now at the critical point when
all may be lost in a moment if
those who believe III what he
stands for do not stand by him.
No matter whether we like
Wilson or not. no matter whether
we belong to his party or not,
no matter whether we think he
deserves his high position or not,
whether we think he is Compel
ent or not, he is there and if we
want to see American ideals vic
torious and American principles
prevail it is only by supporting
him that this can be done. The
does not absolve us
from our obligation Of loyalty to-
the head of the nation. This is
no time for personal spite, pri-
vate mistrust and partisan poll
tics to come into play. The pres
ident is carrying the American
flag into foreign lands, into the
future. He should have the unit
ed backing of the United States.
Stand by the president-Th In

ASSESSMENT
ROLL STANDS

The time for the filing of protests
against the assessment to be levied
against property for the paving of
Main street and improving Bonners
and Kootenai streets, expired last Sat
urday and that evening the city coun-
Gil met to consider such protests.
None had been filed, however; the
property owners affected evidently be-
ing satisfied. In fact only three or
four persons examined the assessment
roll while on file for that purpose.
Saturday the council took necessary
steps to have the assessment roll ex-
tended on the tax roll of the county
so that first payments thereon may be
paid at the next payment of taxes.
In regard to securing federal aid foI
improving certain city streets, Coun-
Gilman O'Callaghan was instructed tC
request the state highway commission
to appoint one of its own engineers
or Engineer Cave-if a local man was
preferred-to draw up plans and specl
! fications at once for the proposed inn
provement, the law requiring that al
such work be done under the supervl
sion of the highway commission. Al
ter specifications have been obtained
the council will consider the advisable
ity of proceeding with the improve
ment taking into consideration matter
of cost, financing the work, etc. IN
plan under consideration is the i'm
proving with some sort of hard sur
face of a 20-ft. strip on the stree
to the city limits at the Malcolm
Bruce property on the south bench an
from the end of Main street to wher
the Porthill road enters the city lin
its on the northside, thus connectin
with the county post roads, and there
by making it possible to secure fedora
aid. If this aid is finally secure
the government will pay half OF tn
expense of such improvement as is III
ally decided upon.
The council is of the opinion thi
the city should do everything posslD
to secure this aid at this time on
$3.50 basis, thereby reducing the COZ
to the property owners of a substantli

INSPECTS THE

morning in company with Harry Dud-
