STORE OPENING
.lsiidOwn Grocery Company Opens
 New Style System Here.

The Ashdown Grocery Company opened it's store here Thursday under tie new cafeteria plan. which they have been preparing for some time. IL will be a novelty here. but this style of stores have for some time been becoming known in the larger cities. The plan became popular during the war as a means of reducing costs and dispensing with labor so badly neel- ed. The idea has come to stay be- cause it has proven to be a success. Everything is displayed with prices marked on specially designed count CTS. There is one entrance, and upon entering the customer is given mar ket basket As he passes down the aisles he selects such things as he wishes to purchase and places them in the basket. As he passes out at the other entrance, having made all his purchases, he pays for them at the cashiers desk. Tie store is very much after the plan of the famous Piggly Wigly Store, the name of which is copyrighted and}all furniture used by them patented, but the general idea is the same. They will run a meat market in connection.

STATE LEGISLATURE
Will Convene One Week from Monday Things Which Will be Con.
 Sidered.

Little Rock, Jan. Lone week from Monday, on January 13, the Forty second session of the Geberal Assem- bly, will convene.
 There has been very little said about it in advance. For one reason, it's work could not be intelligently dis cussed until the fate of the proposed new Constitution was determined
 Now that that has been settled, the attention of our statesmen is being turned toward the Legislature, and it's possibilities for doing some of the things which the framers of the Con stitution sought to. accomplish. More and more it is being realized that there were many good things in the rejected document that should have been adopted.
 Whatever may have been the actuat- ing cause back of it's defeat. the fact remains that none can deny there are many reforms in it which should have been adopted and for which the peo- rle will continue to contend until they are realized
 The two outstanding reforms of Prohibition and Suffrage are not really vital and might have been omitted from the proposed draft, for each is about to be realized through amend ments to the National Constitution.
 While Suffrage has been having some hard sledding through the Sem ate, it is in fair way to be adopted, and is as certain as the sunrise. And one of the first acts of the Leg islature will be the ratification of the National Prohibition Amendment, which is rapidly near.lS it's necessary two-thirds of the state.
 So those who opposed the COnstitu- ticn because of these two reforms really stood in their own light, since they. merely delayed the inevitable in those things they opposed and defeat eu the salutary reforms they profess ed to endorse.
 There will be plenty of work for the sixty days, or the fifty working days the Legislature will be in session, all to short a time for the proper con- sideration of the business affairs of a great cooperative concern like a state.
 Numerous questions relating to the Constitution, including the possibility ei, and it is known that bills have already been drawn proposing more amendments than can be constitution ally submitted at one time It is pro- bable that the Legislature will be re-

GOVERNMENT LOSES
 ON RAIL OPERATION
Net Income for 1918 Will Be About $1oO,O00,000 Below Guaran- tee--May Make Up
 Deficit.

Washington, Jan. 1-The govern ment's loss in operating the railroads in 1913 is calculated by Railroad Ad- ministration officials at less than S150,000,000. This represents the dif- ference between the aggregate amount the government will be compelled to pay railroad companies as rental for the use of their properties-the so- called guarantee return-and the net income which the government will re- ceive from the railroads
 It will take six months mere of re- ceipts from the increased freight rates to permit the government to re- coup it's losses, officials believe. If Congress does not approve the pro- posed ive-year extension of federal control and as a consequence Presi- dent Wilson carries out his announce ed intention of returning the roads to private management at an early date, the governments loss will not be made up.
 This deficit does not include the big sums between s15O,O00,OO0 and s2Oo,- 000, ,0o0-which have been loaned to the railroads to help them pay for the extension program of improvements and purchase of new cars and loco- motives. These loans will be repaid eventually.

 Then the Legislature will be con- fronted with the ever present problem oC cutting it's revenue cloth to fit it's appropriation patterns. Indications are that the departments will ask for about half million more than the revenues will stand, which means that some of the frills must be cut off the patterns.
 Oh, yes, there will be plenty to do.

BUTTE.-The Patriotic Citizens Of
America, recently organized here an6

bring loyal employers and employees
together while eliminating the l. W.
w. and other radical elements. The
movement has taken impetus since
the recent strike of the |. w. w. and
other organizations which closed the
mines for 10 days and necessitated
the presence of United States troops
here
The P. C. o. A. in formal resolutions
declares there is imminence IF a Boil
shevik revolt in America and calls on
all employers to hire only Americans
whose loyalty is unquestioned.
Believing that exorbitant cost OF liv-
ing may enter into unrest. the P. c..
O. A. also has nap'ed committees to.
investigate prices for the necessities
of life in Butte and ascertain whether
charges that the people of Butte pay
high prices can be

| lels Birc1es, Alaska, however, IS
miles below Fort Gibbon, has several
times hit the 81 and 88 mark below
zero, and is therefore believed to be
the coolest spot in the north, if not in
the world.
Nome and Seward Peninsula have
been experiencing a record winter for
cold weather. During the greater
part of this month the temperature
in Nome averaged 40 degrees below
zero, the lowest recorded being 81 de-
grees below zero. Similar weather
has been reported from nearly every
point on the peninsula.
Severe storms have prevented Irav-
ell to the Teller district, north of here,
for the past month. One man, John
Hengess, who essayed to make the
trip to Cape Prince of Wales, got lost
on the trail and finally arrived at
Lost River with but half his dogs, the
rest of the team having succumbed to
the cold. B. Nelly, also bound from
Nome to the cape with supplies for
the natives there, lost most of his
dog-team of Is near Cape Wooley.
After two days spent in sleeping bags
under the snow, Nelly escaped with
frozen hands and feet.
Seward, Alaska, has sent out an

IDAHO FRUIT CROP
PROSPECT IS GOOD
BELIEVED THAT STATE WILL
PRODUCE A BUMPER CROP
AND GET GOOD PRICES

BOISE.-Idaho fruit growers have
every reason to be optimistic from
the present outlook for the coming
season, according to Guy Graham
state horticulturist. The release of
export regulations served to suddenly
boost the price of apples about 81
a box, the first time, according to
Mr.. Graham, the fruit growers have
shared the war time prices.
He believe that even in the event
that the Idaho crop of fruit this fall
is bumper one, the general pros
perity of the country and abundance
of money in the possession of the
purchasing people will insure excel
lent prices and ready market.
Mr.. Graham believes that Idaho
fruit growers should beat the wealth
er man this season. Idaho has new
er known two successive fruit fail
ures and that this is the year for
bumper crop that should duplicate
1910 as year of prosperity for
Idaho fruit men. He urges that fruit
men take every possible precaution
to protect their fruit against frost
this spring should it threaten and
makes a particular appeal for clean
fruit that may be obtained by care
full attention to spraying.
He advocates careful pruning at
once if it has not already been done
to increase the quality of the fruit.

IS A GOOD SUGGESTION.

The suggestion made by Grand
Exalted Ruler Campbell, of the Elks
lodge, that the temples be made COM
be encouraged to meet there for all
purposes, except political, is good
one and should meet with the approx
al of the people of Moscow and vicin-
ity who should be willing to cooper
ate with the Elks in this splendid
work, in which all will be benefited
The Elks lodge is composed of some
of the best men of the community.
1t represents a splendid sentiment of
brotherhood and its work has always
been for the uplifting Of the commun-
ity. No worthy charity has ever been
turned down by the Elks.
In Moscow these people have built
the finest building in town and the
proposal to invite the public to make
it the social center and place of hold
ing meetings is move that will re-
suit in good for the entire commun-
ity. The Elks temple will be fitting
place for holding such meetings and
place to which we will be proud to
invite visitors from other places.
Lewiston has an Elks temple that I
has long been the social center for |
that thriving city. During the past T
10 years the writer has attended
large public meetings, conventions,
covering several days and nights,
banquets and other gatherings, and
every one of these have been held in
