FAvORs RATIFYING
TIE PEACE TREATY AND COVE
NANT WITHOUT COMPLICAT-
ING, DELAYING, OR IN
VALIDATING RESER-
VATIONS

A vote has just been taken by the
National Economic League purport-
Ing to show that three out of foul
OF the thinking men of this country
are In favor of the ratification of the
Peace Treaty and League of Nations
Covenant without delaying, compli-
eating. or invalidating reservations
or interpretations.
The Leagues resolution is worded
as follows: Resolved, that the
United States should ratify the
Treaty with Germany, including the
League of Nations Covenant, without
complicating delaying, or invalidat-
ing reservations footnote ex-
plains that this is not to be con-
strued as excluding such interpreta-
lions of the Treaty and Covenant as
may be thought necessary to clarity
the American position, provided no
danger is thereby created of delay or
of furnishing ground for Germany
or other signatory to declare that
the ratification by the United States
is not complete and binding.
Out of a total of 685 votes, SIG
members are recorded as favoring
and 166 as opposing this resolution.
In addition to this the National
Economic League has taken pains to
compile the votes from each State
and also to print the name and re-
cord the vote of each member. 1t is
shown that from New York State,
for example, so votes were received
81 of which were for and 10 against
the resolution; California voted 16
in favor as against 3 opposed; Illi-
nois shows 80 favoring and 7 oppos
ing; Massachusetts 81 for and III
against; Alabama, Arkansas, Missis-
sippi South Carolina and Virginia
are unanimous for the resolve, while |
Indiana and Wyoming, each with a
tie vote. represent the strongest OPP
position, as no State succeeded in |
scoring majority against the reso-
luton
The Council of the National Eco |
nomic League is elected by ballot in
each State, from nominations sub
mitted with the aim of making up a I
representative body OF the most

&c spirited citizens.
AS an indication of 1.-THE informed
md unbiased opinion of the coun- i
ry' which The National League
laims is what it has aimed to pre-
ent, this vote is interesting and
ignificant.

STATE ADMINISTRATIONS

Boise, Idaho, August 31.-It il
apparent from the official figures
that considerable misinformation has
been distributed over the state eth
CT for political effect adverse tc
the present state administration OF
innocently in the guise OF hastily
written news stories Those who are
concerned in the matter from the
standpoint of opposition to the Re-
publican administration are pre-
tending to make it appear that a
world of money is being expended in
excessof the normal or necessary ex-
pendjtures.
This is far from the truth as the
official records show.
WHAT. ALEXANDER LEFT

administration was left a legacy of

the Alexander administration DELHI
erately failed to levy $6O6,313.11,
which was necessary to meet the ex-
penses that the Alexander admins
tration itself incurred. This deficit
ency had to be met by the last legis-
lature and the present administra-
ton.
Moreover when the late Cover
nor Haines turned the reins of adj
ministration over to Governor Alex
ander, there ives an actual cash bal
ance OF $4,000 in the treasury.
This was all used by the Alexander
administration. The Alexander adj
also spent for expenses
$4,000 insurance for the soldiers
home and the Lcwiston normal
school fires $4,000 that was pro-
vided for the Snake river bridge
and $4,000 similarly provided for
The Gem Irrigation district.

| GENERAL BULLETIN NO. IL
| AT recent meeting OF the Direc-
ltors of the United States Grain Cor
lporation, at New York City, it was
determined to define a little more
clearly, what constitutes retail
transaction in the purchase of wheat.
Under the license requirements,
retailers are not required to have
licenses. but it is now determined
that the purchase of wheat direct
from the farmer for the purpose of
resale, or manufacture, no matter
how small the quantity, is not a
retail transaction, and that per-
sons engaged in such operations
must have license. Also, the handling
of seed wheat, no matter how small
the quantity cannot be considered q
retail transaction, and such dealers
must hold license. Dealers in damag-
ed wheat, unfit for human consump-
ton. who may purchase such dam
aged wheat direct from the farmer
must have a license.
Retail dealers who purchase wheat
entirely from licensed operators. are
not required to have license.
License application blanks may be
obtained upon request at this office.
Very truly yours,

LIMIT ON BONDS
The present administration was al
$50 confronted with the fact that the
iconstitutional limit on bonded in
debtedness % s2,OO0,OOO had been
reached within less than 100000, so
lit was necessary, in order to defray
1.-THE growing expenses Of state gov
lernment, which had increased in har-
Imony with expenses of every business
and every family in the state, to
make appropriation and levy a di-
rect tax But for this constitutional
Limitation, much of this money
would have been raised by bond is
sues, thereby avoiding direct taxa
Ition.
1t will be recalled that $980,000
was appropriated for highways to
which there can be no objection by
those who are interested in the grow
TIL and development Of the state.
One hundred and seventeen thousand
dollars was appropriated for tuber-
Iculosis hospitals, which are certain
lily needed in view of the spread of
the white plague in Idaho. In addi-
ton there was appropriated $911,-
267 for the following items:
Gem Irrigation District, S119, 456;

STRICT ECONOMY
If there shall be eliminated items
