THE CENSORSHIP.

The censorship it still at work IN
this country. Every word that comes
to us from Europe must pass the
censor. A good guesser might guess
what is going on in Paris but the peo-
pie have no means of knowing. The
peace congress is sitting behind
closed doors. Facts that leak out
must pass the censor before they get
to the American people. Thus we
see "pittiless publicity" once again in
all its beauty.
One of these bright days President
Wilson will come back all snugly tied
up in red tape. He will have in his
hip pocket a treaty which he will ask
the United State Senate to ratify.
The senate will have its choice of
ratifying treaty of which it may or
may not approve, or of causing an
international disturbance. The senate
will undoubtedly refuse to ratify any
treaty or treaties of which it does not
approve. But such ratification, under
such conditions, should never be put
up to the senate.
The congress gave us the censor
ship under the plea that the war de-
manded it. 1t is continued because
politics demand it, With both ends
of the cable, the mails and wireless
plants in his hands President Wilson
thinks that he can force the country
to take his prescriptions whether the
country likes them or not. He is
leaning on the censorship at the pres
ent time. We believe he is going to
find it a slender reed in the end.

THE TORRENS SYSTEM.

Elsewhere in this issue of The Trl-
bune will be found an article taken
from the editorial columns of the
Meadows Eagle The reader will see
at once that here is a system of real
estate transfer suggested that will rid
him of much expense and many
troubles The Torrens system is al
ready in successful operation through
out Australia, New Zealand, in many
provinces of Canada and in some
states in this country. 1t is simple,
inexpensive and serves its purposes
admirably, in that it fixes real estate
titles absolutely and provides for their
transfer from one person to another
at little expense and trouble.
The Tribune is very much pleased
to see the Eagle and its able editor
interested in this great reform. The
Tribune has urged the consideration
of the Torrens idea off and on for
years but never with great tangible re-
suits. We are now convinced that
hundreds, perhaps thousands of peo-
pie have given serious thought to the
matter. Within the week number Of
persons have urged us to undertake a
little campaign of education with the
purpose of getting the subject before
the people that they may give it con-
sideration. Perhaps, under the lead
ership of the Eagle, results can be
secured much sooner than we had
any idea.
AS stated last week our present sys-
tenn is nightmare and very ex-
pensive nightmare. 1t does seem
foolish that we should continue having
nightmares when a remedy thoroughly
tried out in many part of the world
is at hand.

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

We are about to accept the League
it. when reduced to the harmlcssncss
of an old lady's knitting bee there is
nothing bad about a League of Ma
tons, and that is about where the
League is now.
The press dispatches from Paris
Monday stated that it seems to be the
agreed by the supreme council OF the
peace congress that in the League Of
Nations there shall be "no super
sovereignty, nor ommon police
force and that the question of whether
a nation shall contribute force in car
rying out the decisions of the League
will be left to each nation individually
in each instance" The idea is summed
up in concert of powers" in contra
distinction to balance of powers"
Thus the league has got down to
about what "The Tiger" of France
said he stood for. In passing We might
say that the freedom of the seas" and
open covenants of peace openly ar
rived at" were discarded very early in
the peace preliminaries. You have
also heard nothing of late concerning
that one point of the famous IA that
dealt with artificial barriers of trade
a protective tariff for instance.
One by one the points are falling
by the wayside. The League of Ma
tons as outlined above is about as
harmless as it an well be. 1t will meet
with the approval of the American
people simply because there is nothing
to if

JOBS FOR SOLDIERS.

The United States Employment
Service. a bureau of the Department
of Labor, has been assigned the task
of finding jobs for the men released
from military service. The bureau re-
ports that it is finding positions Tor
discharged men at the rate OF lOO,OOO
a week but that applications at the
rate of 100000 a week are piling up.
At this rate the country will soon have
an immense number of unemployed
men on its hands. The Department OF
Labor urges every community to re-
establish its men in positions of use
fulness. The bureau also states that
it will be unable to continue finding
places for 100000 men each week
unless it has active cooperation on
the part of individuals and communi-
ties.
Generalization is proceeding rapidly
and will continue for many months to
come. The country must bestir itself
or face grave crisis. Men discharged
from service, without employment,
will soon become restless. Restless
men, in great numbers, soon become
a serious menace. These facts must
be borne in mind and provided
against.
Now is the time when business must
be resumed. Now is the time when
building operations should be started
Now is the time for all kinds of public
improvements. 1t is too bad that the
national administration cannot, even
at this late day, take time to prepare
for peace. The administration should
have taken time months ago but it did
not. At the present time the head of
the administration is galavanting over
Europe as the guest of royalty and we
can expect nothing from that source
until the show is over. Private CAPT
tai, municipalities, counties and states
will have to do something, and, for
tunately there are many things they
can do.
1t would be a national disgrace; it
is almost such already; that men re-
turning from the military branches
find their jobs gone and nothing new
in prospect. The condition will not
last long without something dropping
that will be heard around the world,
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1919-01-24

PROFESS further sale. What relief
to the transfer in land! No lawyer to
pay, no abstraster to employ. Just go
with the other party to the recorders
office of the Register of Land Titles
(the county recorder) or to Notary
Public with your certificate of title
and there do all your business in a
single transaction. Assign or trans
fer your Certificate of Titale, in whole
or in part as the case may be, when
the Register will issue a new certifi-
cate or certificates. as the transaction
requires, and the business is done.
The present legislature should pass
such law To induce it to do SO it
will be necessary for every farmer in
the state to write his senator and
representative that unless he sup
ports and helps to pass Torrens
Land Title Bill this winter he need
expect no further support for public
office. And then watch him and see
that he puts his shoulder to the wheel
and helps to simply vote right He
must work and fight and vote in order
to win Keep tab on him.

Y. M. c. A. DISAPPOINTMENT

One war service that fell down
miserably is the Y. M. c. A. Perhaps
too much was expected of this organi-
zation. If too much was expected
the fault was the fualt of the publicity
agents of the organization. They
promised too much. They exploited
too much. They boosted too much.
The American people were led to be-
lieve that the Y. M. c. A. was the big
brother of the Red Cross. The facts
that have come to light will result in a
big investigation. The investigation
will not prove much. 1t will be shown
that there were poor management, ex-
travsgance and waste. This misman-
agement will be excused upon the
grounds that in the excitement and
exigencies of war mistakes were to be
expected.
The one fact stands out that with
unlimited financial and moral support
on the part of the American people
the Y. M. c. A. was found wanting
1t could not arise to its opportunities,
1t was not big enough for the oc-
casion.
And, when you come to think it
over, knowing one or two big men in
the Y. M. c. A., as you uondoubtedly
do, if you will stop to think, what
could you expect? The Y. NJ. c. A.
was criticized severely before the dis
closures concerning its activities
abroad came to light This criticism
was not made in the press but it ran
from person to person. 1t travelled by
word of mouth but everybody dis
counted it. Nobody wanted to be-
lieve that this country was falling
down anywhere along the line. Least
of all did we want to believe i'll of our
voluntary war service agencies.
The Y. NJ. c. A. was disappoint-
ment but it was not total loss. Much
of its work was good; many OF its
workers were splendid; and critisicm

NINETY DAYS WIPES OUT
IDAHO.

! Senator B. NJ. Ferald, addressing
the National Gamers association OF
which organization he is a former
president, said: When the war ceased
the senate passed a resolution 10
abandon housing projects no longer
needed and costing between 100000
and 100000 a day. The resolution
was sent to the house. The house de-
ferred hearing until January 8 when
it was taken up. But the President is
still abroad and that bill cannot be-
come law without his signature. This
expenditure of at least 100000 a day
has been going on since early in De-
cember
A useless expenditure of between
S300,000 and $4,000 day will about
wipe out Idaho's entire subscription
to all four Liberty Loans in 90 days,
and the President will have spent 90
days in Europe before the end Three
hundred thousand a day. the least
figure. for 90 days amounts to twenty
seven million dollars.
The Presidents jaunt to Europe is
rather expensive and that is not put
ting too fine a point on il. We trust
the jaunt is worth it. How many
more millions of.useless expense are
still going on that nobody in authority
has called to public attention.

Black CANYON Troubles:

| Caldwell. Jan. 2l.-Editor Tribune:
There has been many nice compli-
ments on Mr. ]. NJ. Thompson and
directors, in the Tribune and other
local papers of late, congratulating
them on their success in getting things
to point of actual construction work
by the U. s. R. S., in the Black Can
yon project. If there is any one man
more than another who deserves
credit, it is Mr.. Thompson, as he has
labored patiently against every known
pest to mankind, and has finally been
crowned with success.
The Tribune especially. with other
local papers, should receive its share
of praise for having the moral stamina
to support a cause second to none in
any western community, and that the
building up of homes for deserving
class of people that will be as lasting
as time to come. There is a local
town not many miles distant from

CATION of the present administration
,s makes Democrats shake with fear.
Up to the present time only rev
of the smaller wastes have come to
light but even these, insignificant as
they are, comparatively, are opening
the eyes of the American people.
Revelations are due. say those who
have tried to keep in touch with at
fairs, that will topple over many a
good, deserving Democrat.
The wisdom of the American people
was never shown to greater extent
than when they elected Republican
congress at the last election Two
years previously they made grievous
mistake but they have redeemed them
selves.

Broke Down in Britain.

According to special correspond
ence of the Boston News Bureau, from
London, not only the telephone but
the telegraph is failure under gov
eminent ownership and operation.
The telephone system has been gov
eminent owned only seven years but
the telegraph system has been in the
hands of the British postal service for
46 years. During that time, accord
ing to the News Bureaus correspond
ent, the system has made total loss
of $120,6O0000 and has been bankrupt
for "A years. OF course it pays its
deficits, from the treasury. When
someone tries to convince you that
government ownership would be a
good thing in this country, ask him
to explain the failure of government
ownership in Great Britain.

With all this haullaballoo about

see much manifestation of enthusiasm

they feel a good deal like the dairy.
