CHANGE IN ELECTION LAW

Inc Idaho state primary law, weakness of which
permitted a foreign political party to enter the
Idaho election last fall, will be wiped from the
states statute books if Governor Davis signs the
bill, passed by both the house and the senate pro
vldlng for return to the convention system of
nominating for judicial, state and congressional
offices
The bill, as passed by both houses of the legs-
lature, differs widely from the old convention law
as does it from the present primary statute. 1t
is what might be called obetween, carrying
with it many of the features of the primary cleo
ton law, while some Of the convention ideas are
retained County and legislative officers are to be
nominated at county primaries, and at these
ty primaries to be selected party delegates,
who in turn will meet and elect delegates to the
state party convention.
The state party conventions will nominate party
candidates for state offices and for congress.
Voting iii the house of representatives on the
measure was on purely party lines the Republi-
cans with but one exception, lining up solidly be
hind the measure while the Democrats opposed
it,
The BILL if signed by the governor provides
method OF nominating party candidates that will
not permit recurrence of the loose method of fl
ings for important offices, heretofore in vogue in
Idaho, nor is it of such nature as to allow many
of the evils of old-time convention days. Surely
the new law, though it has defects cannot be
weaker than the present primary statute

TAXING INDIAN LANDS

Whatever may be findings Of the commission
that is to investigate ability of Indians on the Nez
Perez reservation to manage their own affairs,
following the expiration, in June, 1920 Of the
trust in which Indian lands in central Idaho are
held, it is hoped that method will be reached
by which Indian lands in Idaho county will be re-
quired to bear portion of the taxes
Reservation territory, including some of the
choicest farm land in Idaho county; during the
period it has been held in trust for the Indians,
has not paid cent of taxes. 1t is free from
leves Of every sort, and consequently owners of
patented land, perhaps not so valuable, obliged
to pay not only just tax on their own land, but
enough additional to reimburse the state, county
and school districts for what it loses because Of
inability to tax the Indian property
In addition to the fact that Indian lands pay no
part Of the taxes, the governments policy Of hold
ing them apart for the Indians, retards develop
ment of those sections of the country in which In
dian land is located and prevents erection on the
land Of desirable farm improvements.
1t surely is to the interest of the majority Of the
people of Idaho county that these lands be made
taxable even though patents to them may not be
issued directly to the Indians. The reservation
SHOULD NOT be tied up for another long term
of years

WHERE BORAH STANDS

How Senator Borah can remain the idol Of
thousands of Idaho voters, and at the same time
promote his own selfish interests in a manner
that makes the purpose of his actions clearly evil
dent to everyone, is indeed puzzling question.
Before the last election, when Borah was can
dldate to succeed himself, and at which time the
country was engaged in terrible war; Borah
stood firmly behind the president" in the entire
war program. He supported" the president be-
cause Borah felt if he announced he supported"
Mr.. Wilson he thereby would gain thousands of
otherwise Democratic votes in the state Of Idaho.
Borah was elected. The war is ended. Now
only the terms of peace remain to be settled. The
Presidents peace scheme is not in accord with
Borah S view. Borah is in office for six years
from next March 4. Borah not only takes issue

the workers, through federal adjustment, expire
on March 81, and if the men insist on increased
wages, it is announced, the government will cease

The present cost of ship construction in the Uni

of that prevailing before the war. Due to the de

DRY'S SIMPLY CAN'T QUIT.

In the Free Press mail has come copy of the
American ISSUE prohibition paper, printed at
Westerville, 0. The newspaper is filled with slaps
at the liquor interests and praise for temperance
workers.
1t is strange that the American Issue has not
previously found its way to the Free Press desk
for the paper has been rather generally circulat-
ed throughout the country. Perhap the paper and
its contents once proved timely, when fighting the
liquor element was the purpose Of the management
of the American Issue but, now that forty -four
Of the forty-eight states in the Union have ratified
the Eighteenth, prohibition amendment to Il
federal constitution, and national prohibition will
become effective in the United States in less Can
a year, the American ISSUE Judging from outward
appearances, has filed its mission and should
cease to decry the liquor interests, which, them
selves are rapidly passing into the halfforgotten
yesterdays
One can clearly see why the liquor interests
should not fail to exert every possible effort to
stem the prohibition wave that is sweeping the
country. Financially, they have much at stake
and when their business is halted by legislation,
they become the losers of vast capital invested in
the production and distribution Of liquors They
are fighting for their lives. With them it is a
death struggle, and they will not yield, so long
as there is possible chance Of survival.
With the drys, it is different matter. They
have won. To enforce the prohibition amendment,
now ratified by more than the necessary three
fourths Of the states, stand all the powers of the
government Of the United States of America. Ma
tional prohibition is provided by statute. It's en-
forcement will not be the duty of prohibitionists.
1t will be the duty Of the federal government, and
the government will not fail to enforce the law.

COMPANY E rs BACK

Hearts Of Idaho county people were gladdened
Monday when word received that Company
E. of Grangeville, later merged with the 10th
II. S. engineers, had arrived at Hoboken, N. j.,
and would soon be mustered out of the military
service.
The Grangevile company Of volunteers in the
war against German autocracy, was, aside from
part of the regular army among the first American
soldiers to land on European soil. The company
had been in France since November, 1917. and
has more than fourteen months of service to its
credit.
Grangevlle and all Idaho county are proud of
their company of volunteers in the war; and now
that the boys to return, it is with feeling of
particular satifaction and pride on the part of
Idaho county that the company has come back,
after having valiantly performed its part in the
great war.
Company E. the local company will always
be known, Notwithstanding the fact tht it virtu-
lily lost its identity when merged with the 10th
engineers, will ever be revered by the people of
Idaho county, for it was Company E. volunteers,
