RETURNING SOLDIERS.

Almost every day the Star Mirror
contains an item or two aobut this
or that soldier who has returned from
overseas duty to take up civilian life
again at his home in Latah county.
These young men who have risked
everything for their country's well
fare, who have left their positions,
their friends, and their own selfish in
terests far behind them and have de-
voted every thought and every hour
to the military duty prescribed for
them by their government, slip into
town without greeting and without
welcome or congratulation upon their
safe return.
To them it must seem a cold and
indifferent community to which they
return: No one seems to know when
they are coming. No one is at the
train to thank them for their record
of devotion to duty, to express an in
terest in their welfare, and to offer
them any needed assistance in locat-
ing friends and families.
Perhaps few boys who return to
Latah county need material aid. Most
of them are not broke, probably, and
they still have the price of hot coffee
and sandwiches if they are hungry
when they arrive in town. But there
is something great deal better and
more important to the average indi-
vidual than meat and drink, and that
is friendship.
Moscow is not Indifferent to these
young men. She showed herself their
warm and interested friend when they
left, and she sent each one away with
a little memento of goodwill and in
terest. But she has done nothing to
show them that she is still as deeply
concerned as she ever was in their
prosperity and happiness.
The influenza ban does not permit
gatherings or public demonstrations
for all the boys at one time. But
there could surely be some plan form
ulated by which the trains would be
met and the boys greeted and made
welcome. s--sv
If the business of meeting all trains |
were divided among large group Of
people by some well devised plan, and
# every soldier who gets off train
mere could be assured of the hand
clasp of a cordial citizen, Moscow
would be doing better than she is
doing right now by her homecoming
warriors.

In the death OF Hiram Gill of Seat
tie the curtain is rung down on one
of the most spectacular and dramatic
careers of a state replete with histor-
les that are striking and bizarre.
Mr. Gill was first elected mayor
on the policy of wide-open town.
The conservative people of the
community became so outraged by the
results that they recalled him. Mr..
Gill, then pretending conversion, got all
the ministers of the city to proclaim
him a brand snatched from the burn
ing. They invited him to occupy their
pulpits and brought about his election
On platform of opposition to all forms
of vice. But the protection of the sa-
loon interests continued, and condi-
lions in Seattle finally brought about
the ban placed upon the city by Gen
eral Green. Long before his term was
concluded the church people realized
how they had been duped into believ-
ing in his false professions of change
of heart, and they defeated him when
he ran for office the fourth time

FINANCIAL REPORTS.

Although the American people are
notoriously Indifferent to the details
of the administration of their govern
ment whether in the nation, the state,
the county, or the city, yet there are
striking evidences now and again that
there is a very decided anxiety to
know just how their money is ex-
pended.
city would like very much to learn
what becomes Of the taxes paid into
the city treasury 1t is pretty well un-
derstood that there is a budget for
each of the several departments and
that a given sum is set aside annually
for the administration of these depart
ments But as to whether the city gov
eminent is costing the community less
or more than formerly; as to whether
the people are getting more or less
for their money than they used to get;
as to just what proportion of the citys
income is devoted to a given purpose;
as to whether the corporation is, bet
ter or worse off at the end of given
month than it was during the cor
responding month Of the previous year
las to all these facts the people of
Moscow are entirely uninformed.
The Star Mirror is in position to
state that the people of this community
are not Indifferent to these matters,
but that they would take very deep |
as they do in bank statements,
in scrutinizing at their leisure the rec
ord of city finances published period
ically and officially, as they were for
many years.
This would be an expenditure which
the people would heartily endorse as
they have no other means of knowing
how the government for which they are

has been honored by tributes such
as no citizen of this or any other
land has ever before received. Spon-

the testimonials to Colonel Roose-

asm and laudatory spirit those SO far

GOOD READING.

Excellent as has been the work of
Booth Harrington in the past, none
of it, in the opinion of the writer,
equals in truth to life and interest
ing portrayal of character, recent
story of his which ran last year as
serial in one of the magazines and
which has lately appeared in book
form. The novel, which is called
"The Magnificent Ambersons," deals
with the origin and development of
the automobile and the effect of the
new industry upon the economics and
society of the middle west. Any one
who has any acquaintance with life
as it was lived in fair sized city of
this region urging the nineties, will
appreciate the fidelity and grace with
which the author has portrayed the
period.
The story is far from thrilling or
sensational. 1t will attract readers
who are interested in a well-told mar
rative of typically sound and attractive
American family life.
