Clarkston Won The Game

Last Friday evening the Kendrick
High School basketball team met
defeat at the hands of the Charleston
High School in a very good ex-
hibitiop of basketball. The game
resulted in a score OF IS to 81. The
Kendrick team played strictly de-
fenslve game during the first half
and for this reason sacrificed the
opportunity of scoring to any ex-
tent. During the latter half they
made more points than the Clark
ston team. Charleston team out
weighed Kendrick by large mar
gin. However. it was a good game
and clean one and our boys feel
they have nothing to be ashamed of
as they were up against one of the
fastest high school teams in this
part Of the country. A return
game will likely be played during
the early part of next month, at
which time the local team promises
to produce different looking score
card.

Bonds Will Not Burden

Before making up your mind as
to how you will vote at the bond
election January, 10, it might be
worth while to do little thinking
and figuring on your own account.
1t isn't good idea to take too
much for granted and it is often
the case that too much confidence in
the opinions of others isn't the best
policy. Even with the best of IN
tentions Misrepresentation some
times happen.
The idea seems fixed in the minds
of few that voting bonds for high
way construction means placing a
heavy mortgage on the farm that
will require the efforts of future
generations to pay. Let's figure
a little and convince ourselves that
the idea is without foundation, and
that the bonds will be very small
individual debt to each Of US.
The state highway law states dis
tinctly that bonds fcannot be voted
to exceed 10 percent of the assessed
valuation OF the property contained
within the highway district. Good
farm land in Kendrick Highway
District is assessed at about $40 per
acre, making 160 acres of the best
agricultural land have an assessed
valuation of $64OO. Ten per cent
of this valuation would be $64O,
which amount divided into ten
equal payments gives US $64 per
year. plus approximately five per
cent interest annually on the prin-
cipal-less than the price of two
good automobile tires. Is there a
man in the entire Poltatch country
that honestly believes he cannot
afford to pay that amount of money
in the form of taxes on his land,
when .he considers the benefits de-
rived from all-the-year-round roads?
The argument is advanced that
even with federal aid not enough
money can be raised to build per-
manent roads all over the district.
This is no doubt true, but it is sure
ly very weak argument. 1t is
poor policy to throw up our hands
and quit just because the conditions
under which we are working are
not ideal. The amount of the bonds
is $107 900. which added to $100. 900
federal aid money, gives us total
amount that will build good, long
stretch of permanent roads.
, The highway commissioners are
bringing the matter of voting
, bonds before the people at this time
because they realize it will take
! time to secure federal aid and voting
bonds is the first necessary setp to
secure federal aid. They are TAX
ing the responsibility of calling
+ the election and will leave the re-
, sponsibility of a decision with the
voters of the district.

A Good Lawyer

A lawyer was defending man
accused of murder. In a quiet,
tone he talked to the
jury. He made no mention of MUIR
der. In very clear and impressive
way he pictured a little cottage,
with honeysuckles adorning pretty
little front porch, and handsome
little children waiting at the front
gate for their father, and the
mother anxiously peering down the
road for her husband. They all
wanted to greet father on his return
home for the evening meal. Sud-
denly the lawyer stopped. He
drew himself erect. Then he struck
the table terrific blow. Gentle
men of the jury" he sobbed, "you
must send this man back to them.
The plea had it's effect. The jury
men began to sniffle. One fat jury
man choked and then blurted out,
"By thunder. we'll do it," The
lawyer did not say another word,
but sat down. Five minutes later
the jury brot in verdict of not
guilty. The prisoner also wept, on
hearing the verdict. Clasping his
attorneys hand, he said: mo
other man on earth could have saw
ed me as you have done. amt got
no wife and family, kind SIR"

TERRIToRIALs ASK sELE-GoyERNMENT

That our territorials are chatting under their
present form of government is evidenced by
Joint resolution introduced in the Porto Rico
legislature. 1t asks plebiscte to determine the
future political status of the Porto Rcans
Similar discomfort is heard from Alaska and
Hawaii The people of those territories ask the
privilege of self government instead of the form
now in effect
In Porto Rico, Americans conduct the govern
ment governor, attorney general, judges of
the supreme court and other federal officers
Other appointments in Porto Rico made by
the governor and with the approval of the insu-
lar senate. The governor has power to veto acts
of the island legislature
The Porto Ricans maintain that regardless of
how conscientious the officials may be, it is i'm
possible to administer the government to the
best interests of the people under the present
system.
There Is a movement under way to place all Of
cur territories under a system of government
similar to that which gave Great Britain the full
and unstinted support Of her colonies during the
war.
The policy of America is to give free gov
eminent to all, with only such restrictions in
the territories as are essential to the best in
terests Of the people That Alaska is ready for
self government is generally admitted and it is
predicted that a more liberal program will be
provided in the next session Of congress. The
claims Of Porto Rico will also be we'll considered
together with those of Hawaii
America has no desire to rule her territor-
ial5 as independent nations, but as an Integral
past of this republic, bound to US by ties of mu-
tual interest.
The sooner the people of our territories pre-
pare themselves for full independence, the bet
ter the people of America will be pleased.

Editor OF The Journal:
Dear Sir: In an article PUBLISHED in
this paper by a L. s. health officer
the statement made was in effect that
they We're going to do certain things
in regard to installing closets, and that
of course. it would cost something. In
a previous article. he stated anyone in
terfering with their operations could
explain it to the Judge, practically
threat of arrest. Perhaps he might
wisely have stated that they would do
this after matter Was threshed out in
the Supreme Court, and they won the
decision The matter will be contested
in first one from and then another. and
if they do not get decisions faster than
is generally handed down by this court.
they Will hardly do some OF the things
they propose for two or three years
This installation will cost $4,000 or
more to commence. and the service
probably from $4,000 to 5000 per
year. and from what I know in regard
to tenant property management $25,-
600 more can he counted on for main
tenance-anywhcre from $4,000 to
$4,000 within year. and property to
which this would apply is mainly occu-
pied by the working people, as the
owners of the property would simply
raise the rents and the occupants
would have this enormous bill saddled
on them.
The Health Officers of this place are
quite able TO take care of our own To-
cal matters without outside interfer-
ance. and the laws are sufficient for
rea sonable sanitary purposes If prop
erly looked after. The people would in
most cases, readily comply with the re
quirement and dispense with the enor-
nous burden that is upon them, at

BUNDLES.

Is baby bundle? asks the New Republic
The question is more important than it sounds
for upon the answer rests the right of officers
of the United States army to carry their own
offspring singular or pluraD.
Officers must not carry bundles. It is against
the customs of the service. 1t is tabooed in the
army 1t might be considered as a fragrant
breach of those rules and manners that have
grown up in the old regular establishment for
the purpose of hedging about that sacred Gritty
the officer and the gentleman, with restrictions
that would in any way offend against the dignity
of his position.
Now, is a baby bundle? You see at once the
deep significance of the question. If baby is a
bundle the officer-father must not carry him If
not bundle, he may avail himself of this priv
Ilege of parenthood and march down the street
with his first born, proud in the consciousness
that he is fulfilling his parental obligation the
one hand and on the other, that he is not per-
hitting his dignity to be compromised or caus-
ing his self-respect to take a slump.

The question of how to dispose to best advant-

CHECK THE FRAUDULENT FINANC1ERs.


Millions of dollars would be saved each year to
the people of this country if congress needs the
appeal of Secretary Carter Glass for a check
upon the promoters of fraudulent financial
schemes.
In letter to Chairman Ktchin of the House
ways and means committee Mr.. Glass urged ear
y'enactment Of law drawn by the capital issues
committee which would require all corporations
or persons desiring to sell stock through the
mails through advertisements in newspapers
circulated through the mails, to file with the
rotary comprehensive statements concerning the
stock. It also would make the persons to sign
the statements personally responsible for any
falsity therein. Wilful violation Of the act would
be punishable by fine of $4,000 or imprison-
ment of one year, or both and persons suffering
from intentional misrepresentation in the state
ments could recover damages
"The country is being flooded with stock
flotations at the present time, many of which are
of very doubtful worth and many of which are
fraudulent Mr. Glass said. "The millions of
holders of our Liberty bonds are being solicited
by paid agents to exchange these bonds for these
securities thus not only seriously diminishing
resources which should be kept available for
government financing, but as we'll bringing in
many financial loss and ruin and seriously
jeopardzing national finances from the resultant

Public protests coming in from all parts of
the United States
Permit to point out that this proposed ac-
ton by congress will not of itself be sufficient
to suppress effectually this evil, because there
are many transactions with which congress may
not have constitutional authority to deal. Sup
Elementary legislation by the several states will
also be necessary. The promoter or stock vendor
whose agents. go from house to house relying up
on personal conversations and solicitations with
out the use of the mails or any of the United
States governmental agencies can hardly be
reached through national legislation. On the
other hand, they be adequately controlled by
state legislation, and the obvious method would
be to require all persons desiring to sell shares
of stock to the public to obtain first license
from any state in which such shares are to be
offered
Most reputable newspapers long barred
doubtful financial advertisements from their
columns. The Pensacola Journal for instance
rejected cash with-order business totaling sew
eral thousands of dollars while the Mobile oil
boom flourishing and almost every week re-
turns advertising of questionable nature.
1t now only remains for the government to de
prive the schemers of use Of the mails and in
flct the penalties suggested by Mr. Glass to pro-
tect the people from serious drain upon their
savings.
