The Silent Vote VS.. the Big Noise
Too much of governmental policy is
guided by the Big Noise.
Is it any wonder labor, police, pro-
fessors or farmers organize to make
the Big Noise?
The Walla Walla Union says: "It
often happens that small but COM
pact and well organized group can
control legislation and Congress, in
opposition to the will if the silent and
unorganized mass of the people.
"The politician feels the pressure
of the small but active organization,
and knows that if he votes against it,
he may lose the solid block of their
votes.
''He thinks that the rest of the peo-
pie will forget about it before the
next election. But frequently they
don't"
The great mass of silent citizens
\ should make their opinions felt more
clearly at elections by choosing men
of sound convictions rather than can
didates with the most theories who
make the loudest noise.

The Real Purpose

Those who are inclined to sympa-
thfze with the steel strikers should
reflect that never has a great strike
been so reasonless. The men are
striking for the closed shop at a time
when the wellbeing of the entire coun-
try demands the maximum of produc-
ton. To select such cause for strik-
ing is an injustice; to choose such
time is criminal. Careful reading of
the daily dispatches cannot have fail
ed to unmask the pretensions of the
labor leaders to ultimately socialize
the steel industry and establish a
closed-shop dictatorship. When agi-
tators clamor for revolutions and
strikes, it is well to remember an old
saying that "Men of Incorporate
minds cannot be free; their passions
forge their letters for them"

COLLEGE MUSEUM
SEEKS ATTENTION
Foundation Already Laid for Inter
esting Institution-Help and
Donations Requested.

In most of our large cities and in
connection with practically all of our
large institutions of learning we find
some sort of museum. People who
visit these museums come into direct
contact with concrete facts as they
exist or have existed in various parts
pie who annually visit these places
rive evidence of the deep interest that
is taken in such things.
We are all proud of the rapid
growth that Caldwell is now expert
encing. In view of such progress we
must and are laying the foundations
for greater. thinps in the development
of our city And while we are de-
voting much attention, as we should
be, to the improvements of our streets
and The building of parks, may we not
also give a little attention to the
development of museum that shall
be not only an attraction for visitors,
but shall have true educational merit
for our own citizens.
The College of Idaho already has a
nucleus for such a museum. During
the past years many interested parties
have donated or loaned specimens of
various kinds so that now, although
still small, the museum contains
many valuable assets to our city.
In developing such museum finan-
cial sacrifices such as are required in
most enterprises are not so much in
need just at present as an aroused in
terest. No doubt there are already
within our midst sufficient piimbers
of interesting specimens stored away
to make a museum of great value and
interest if they were collected and
placed where they would be accessible
to the public. Manv -.oung men have
recently returned from abroad and
have in their possession perhaps come
things that will be of value as time
goes on. NJ left at home specimens
of this kind are frequently misplaced
and eventually lost; if placed in a
museum the owner does not lose pos
session, but simply loans them with
the understand that proper care
will be given and that they may be
obtain at any time upon request; by
so doing the owner is not only guar.
anteed the safety of his specimens, bu
cietv that will be more and more ap
preciated as the years go by. If yor
have anything that may be useful If
this way let it be known to those hav.
ing the work in charge and due credi
will be given. Let us remember tha
the success of. this enterprise, as il
all others of a public nature, depend,
| upon the willingness of each person
to do what he can toward developing
a museum that will be a credit 10 thu
