WILL APPLY NEW SET RULES
Relation Of State Fair and Depart
ment Of Agriculture.

Boise, Dec. 22.--As the result of
the joint conference held here Sat
urday between the governor and
the state cabinet and the state fair
association decision was reached
that the fair department. is under
the jurisdiction of Commissioner of
Agriculture Cannon and that all
state expenditures for the fair must
meet Mr.. Cannon's approval. 1t
was also decided that o. P. Hender-
shot, as secretary of the fair, is
subordinate to Mr.. Cannon. There
was criticism of the attitude of the
fair association in anticipating next
years tax levy in meeting the ex-
pense of buildings constructed at
the fair grounds.
A final decision was reached that
a meeting should be held on jan
uary 3 to decide upon definite
set of rules that will be guide
in the future in determining the
specific relation that the fair shall
hold to the department of agricul-
ture.

As a matter for his own infor-
nation. Representative Burton L.
French of Idaho has made an analy-
sis of the soviet constitution of
Russia. His colleagues have been
so impressed with the results of
his study that he has been per-
suaded to embody them in speech
to the House. In parallel columns
Mr.. French has arranged the prIn-
ciples of the soviet government and
those of our own system, and the
conclusions that he draws and IL
Illustrates by that method OF COM
parison are very Illuminating. Those
who wish to come to an under
standing of what the present gov
eminent of Russia really is should
send to Mr.. French and request a
copy of his speech.

REAPING THE HARVEST 0
LOOSE POLITICS.

First thing you know the public
will die Of starvation or something
and then capital and labor Will
have had all their trouble for
nothing.-Kansas Industrialist.
The bright side of the Mexican
situation is that If war results the
cost of living in this country may
drop down to war prices.-Chicago
Tribune.
If fifteen years of running loose
at the mouth. under two so-caIied
Republican administrations and two
Democratic administrations is not
enough to cripple country indus
trially and commercially, what is
yet required? Presidents joining
radical labor unions and putting
college professors in charge of great
industrial problems bears fruit
Have we not had political economy
experiments at the hands of such
until the cows have come home TO
roost?
exploiting the new freedom and the
square deal for tramps as against
thrifty blokes until the latter are
almost reduced to the criminal
class, while the penitentiaries were
converted into eleemosynary insti-
buttons for honor men, and parole
systems organized from the ranks OF
philanthropy have sent the most
talented law breakers back into the
ranks of honest citizens? Has any
country suffered from such a deluge
of highbrow sentimentalism as
ours? The wonder is that the reds
and the yellows and the anaemics
of professional officialism have not
organized their half-baked souviets
long ago and taken charge of the
affairs for those supplemented per-
sons who still wear callouses on
their hands and brains from eff
forts to earn an honest dollar and
hang onto it.
No country in the world has been
governed so long with cowardly
balderdash and untested theories in
the name of democracy and sym
patty for the under dog. including
the degenerates and drunkards po-
litical and otherwise, has made
laws from the standpoint OF the de-
fectives and spenders as against the
normals and accumulators, and has
offered a premium for the nnsuc-
cessful to exploit the substantial
elements of society without which
no government is worth an Apache 50
whoop. Is 1t any wonder our coun-
try is in the deplorable condition
where dictation comes from the
servants and the poor foolish nut
who wants to give labor employ
ment has to apologize for being In
the control Of the industry as
though it were a crime?-The Man

HOW MIND WORKS IN SLEEP
That Mental Apparatus Is Never Com.
pletely at Rest Seems to Be
Beyond Doubt.

In his book, t'The Mystery of
Sleep" John Bigelow quoted from
Jouffray this passage: Il have new
er been able to comprehend what
people mean who say that the mind
sleeps. It is impossible to show that
in sleep there are moments when
the mind does not dream" As an
illustration Of how the mind may
work pointedly in sleep, Mr.. Bigelow
cites the dream of Agassiz, twice re-
peated, in which the sleeper recov-
cred the obscure impression left in a
stone slab by a fossil fsh-a task
that had defed his waking hours
and was able on the third night of
the dream to jot down a pencil
sketch of the fossil features. Com
trary to the main contention of the
Freudians, Mr.. Bigelow held that
"man is captured in his sleep !. !.
by his better nature" and the most
important events in human history
have been initiated during the re-
%generative hours of sleep.
