state conventions where officers were
elected, constitutions were adopted,
and where series Of regulations de-

issued to the press and the public at

PLASTINO RETURNS TO
PLAY FOOT BALL HERE

Felix Plastino Of Pocatello, veteran
center and tackle, made his first ap-
pearance of the year in Idaho foot
ball togs yesterday afternoon. Plas-
tino is not in as perfect condition as
other men on the squad, but he ex-
poets the severe training grind of the
next three weeks to prepare him for
any amount of belaboring.
Lloyd Hibner of Chesterfield and
Ray Nagel of Nampa, both sopho-
mores, have displayed surprisingly
good form in. recent scrimmage
melees. Both will make more ex-
perienced performers travel at gait
Oldfieldian to keep them out of a
position on the line.
Several team candidates today
found ready campus sympathy when
they appeared bearing the honorable
wounds of last nights scrimmage.
None of the injuries were serious,
barked noses and an occasional black
ened eye comprising the majority of
the casualties suffered.

JULIUS H. BARNES
TO VISIT SPOKANE
HEAD OF GRAIN CORPORATION
COMING WEST TO MEET THE
WHEAT GROWERS.

SPOKANE, Wash.-Every wheat
grower in the Inland Empire may now
meet Julius H. Barnes, United States
wheat director. Mr.. Barnes will visit
Spokane on November IL, spending
the entire day in the city The Agri-
cultural Bureau of the chamber of
commerce is arranging to bring him
In touch with the wheat growers. At
Mr.. Barnes request luncheon meet
ing will be held at the Chamber of
Commerce building at IL noon on Sat
urday, October IL, to which every
wheat grower is cordially invited.
The charge for luncheon is rs cents
per person. Mr. Barnes will address
the conference, going fully into the
phases of the wheat crop situation
that affect the growers of the district.
His visit to the Inland Empire at
this juncture is because of serious
problems that are arising in connec-
ton with handling the wheat crop of
the district and his desire to confer
with growers on these problems. Pro-
ducers will be enabled to question the
national wheat director on points
that may not be entirely clear. The
is thus afforded for
wheat producers to come directly into
contact with the official at
the head of the branch of the national
government having control of the
country's wheat interests

mas conference over Morocco, he turn
! ed the scales toward French predom-
nance in northwest Africa. All of
these efforts, it has been said, were
taken in view of the growing aggres-
siveness of Germany and have added
to Sir Edwards fame as far sighted
diplomatist.
Less than four months before the
outbreak of the world war, on July
%, 1914, in prophetic character
study of the British Foreign Minister,
a well-known writer said: "Sir Ed
ward has guided England through
anxious days. At the end of 1911, the
British fleet was out in the North Sea
for three days and three nights with
out lights and the decks cleared for
action. How war with Germany was
avoided is as great a mystery as how
war with Germany threatened. 1t
was the second incident of its sort
since Sir Edward became. foreign
secretary and men do not pass days
of that kind and not age. But he has
kept the peace in the days that are
past and striven to secure peace for
the days that are to come and British
relations with Germany seem happier
today than ever. But if Sir Edward
Grey ever has to announce war he will
do it in the same calm, even, tones
with which he would open a flower
show
When later in 1914 the war clouds
became positively ominous Viscount
Grey proposed an Ambassadorial con-
ference of all the representatives OF
the European nations and failing to
bring this about, when the time came
for other action he issued his almost
laconic statement that, in order to
preserve the neutrality of Belgium" :"
Great Britain had entered "upon
state of war with Germany beginning
at II p. m. on August 4th.'' Later
in an interview in London he said
Great Britain and the Allies were
fighting to end all war" The vis-
count has long been an advocate of
a league of nations, and is one of the
chiefs of the British organization for
a league.
Viscount Grey married in 1885 Miss
Dorothy WiddringtGn of Newton Hall,
Nortl rmberland, who died in 1906.

Arc They Waveringo

CENATOR LODGE, OF Massachusetts. in his
~ Joint debate with President A. Lawrence
Lowell. OF Harvard, upon the league of ma
tons, has decided that he wants a league
after all. Senator Lenroot, after consulting
with friends at home, has let it be known that
he is no longer against some sort of an in
ternational union. Senator Mccormick of
Illinois, is willing to accept moderate con-
1ederacy, and other signers of the round robin
in recent utterances, have shown a surpris-
ing disposition to consider terms of peace
with the league advocates. Only Senators
Borah and Reed remain uncompromising. Sen
ators France and Sherman have not been
heard from, but there are indications from
them that they will follow Lodge.
very little while ago Republican states
men were declaring with vehemence that
there should be no league of nations, If such
league depended upon American member
ship. The first outburst OF opposition was
a blanket condemnation of the whole meas
ure as fathered by President Wilson and as
accepted by the plenary council in Paris To
make their hostility the more ominous q
body Of Republican Senators carried ON a
furious flibuster against all pending appro-
priation bills at the end of the session. This
was to serve as warning to the President
that no must not foist an "un-American'
treaty of peace upon the Senate.
But there has been change OF front ON
the part of this body Of Republicans They
no longer stand against a league Of nations
as such. They no longer stand against the
league constitution as now drafted All they
are against is few OF the articles of that
constitution. They feel that with a half u
dozen, or less, carefully framed amendments
each bearing the stamp of Republican ap-
prevail they can give cordial support TO the
league, and may even reconcile themselves
TO the necessity OF voting upon the league
and the peace treaty at one and the same
time.
This attitude on the part OF leading Re-
publicans has the look OF surrender. II be-
