PUBLIC SERVICE AND FARM PRO.
DUCTS,
(Jerome, Idaho. NeWs)

Butter made in Jerome, produced
from cream brought in by local farm
ers, is retailing at 20 cents pound
II anybody considers this a high
price they need not demand an in
/ Vestlgation of the groceryman. The
news happens to know that the ad-
vance he made is no more than reas-
enable compensation, his cost consid-
cred, for his time and money invest
ed.
I Not so very long ago creamery
butter sold here at 40 cents pound,
and that was considered high. The
News is not kicking, understand that.
i. is simply stating the fact.
In other words, butter has advanc-
ed from pre-war prices almost zoe
per cent Yet is anybody investigat-
ing butter, or even suggesting an in
vestigtion? Thea farmer who is pro-
ducing the cream nor the concern
that manufactures the butter is charg-
ed with being profiteers.
Butter is a highly essential article
of food-many believe that a table
can not be supplied unless there is
butter within reach.
At the same time there is a big
howl against the utility corporations
They are all to be investigated and
the charge is generally made that the
government or somebody or other
ought to step in and by competition or
contiscation, if necessary, put the util-
ity corporations out of business.
About the hardest and likely the
best able to stand the whacks of the
credulous is the electric power con-
Germs, generally referred to as the
power trust" Especially in Idaho
has it become quite the fashion to "go
after" the power trust. There have
been Investigations and expert testi-
mony and such until there is so much
fig that no one knows for a certainty
anything about the subject Yet it is
a fact that the public service corpor-
atoms have not as rule, advanced
prices and this is particularly true in
regard to the rate for electric power.
Let the fellow who is now getting
twice as much for his butter fat, three
times as much for his wheat and for
his hay and the same advance on
nearly everything else he produces,
compare his raise with any raise
made by the power trust or most
any public service corporation, as
compared with pre-war prices. He
will find that these corporations, if
they have advanced prices for the
products at all, have been the very
last to do so and even then the ad-
vance is not in proportion to the ad-
vances of other necessities. After
analyzing the subject he will be in
clined to apply the soft pedal to his
howl against these corporations which
are supplying public service

OUR SOLDIER DEAD.
Cincinnati Enquirer)

There should be, we think, a ready
concurrence in the opinion of Gen
eral Pershing that it is best that our
war dead rest in Europe near where
they fell. He says:
Il believe that, could these soldiers
speak for themselves, they would wish
to be left undisturbed where, with
their comrades, they fought the last
fight. Their graves consti-
ute a perpetual reminder to our al
les of the liberty and ideals upon

COPPER BONANZA.
Champion Has Richest Ore in the Lake
Superior District.

The laurel as the producer of the
richest copper rock in the Lake Su-
perior district is more firmly held
than ever by the Champion Copper
company ownership of whose $1,000
shares is Jointly held by the Copper
Range company and the st. Mary's
Mineral Land company, says a Boston
paper.
In the last few days of August and
for the whole of the first week of
this month two stamp heads of the
company produced 100 pounds of min
eral per ton of rock crushed. Fig
uring the average recovery of the cop
per in the mineral at 10 per cent, the
|conpany's rock during that time pro-
duced 20 pounds Of copper per ton
by far the highest average in the his
tory of Champion.

HART WIRES BCRLESON.
Governor Tells Postmaster General
Phone Service Is Rotten.

Acting Governor Louis F. Hart
Tuesday wired Postmaster General
Burleson that the strike has made
telephone service in this state little
better than none at all. He urges
that if the operators have grievances
these be adjusted or that they be
convinced of their error if at fault,
and service resumed Immediately,
The acting governor says:
"Stagnation in. business should not
be tolerated through the Indifference
of anyone charged with public duty,
whether in employ of federal or state
government or privately owned pub
lie service corporation. l am advised
that the advanced wage upon which
increased tolls was based has not ma
terialized and that in some instances
the wage is below that fixed as a min
imum by the constituted authority of
this state"
