IDAHO THE ORIGINAL
GARDEN OF EDEN

That a Garden of Eden lies dor
mant in the wonderful lands of south
ern Idaho and needs but the magic
touch of water to restore it to green
fields and fertile valleys has been dem
onstrated by such reclamation prof.
ects as the Twin Falls. Minidoka, and
others.
Every farmer OF southern Idaho
should be keenly alive to the wonder
full opportunity that is knocking at
Idaho's door, Three million acres of
fertile land within the Snake river val
ley. to be watered by the mighty
Snake, represent this opportunity.
The retaining of this land will
affect each and every community and,
likewise, every citizen. Il will require
millions of dollars to reclaim this land
Although the last congress failed to
pass Secretary Lanes 100000 900
reclamation bill. it was favorablv re-
ported in both the house and senate.
This fact. together with the nation
wide approval Of the plan. as evil
denced by the hundreds of letters OF
endorsement received daily by Secre-
tary Lane, have led him to state tina
there Is every reason to believe that a
similar bill will be favorably consid-
cred at the coming congress.

IT'S FIRST DUTY.

The duty of the state constabulary
is fixed. 1t has been assigned by Man
ager Davis himself Readers of this
journal will recall that last week we
stated that we did not know what the
duty of the state constabulary was
and speculated at random. That spec
ulation was useless The state con-
stabulary will guard the special train
bearing trophies from the battlefields
of Europe. By precedent at least we
know that for all time to come sacred
trophies and relics happening to be in
Idaho for the time being will be a
special object of protection by the
state constabulary.
And it is we'll. 1t is happy thought
We know what happened in Idaho
when the Liberty Bell" was amongst
us. Such a thing must not occur
again. If It should occur the keepers
of the trophies and relics that are Of
national repute and interest will moi
permit them to come amongst us
But the constabulary, duly constituted
by law, will protect US against any.
thing like that which befell the lib
erty Bell"

CHANGE IN SENTIMENT.

II has not been many years since
Nevada was mathematical from one
end of the country to the other tor
legalizing prize fights The western
people were particularly offended at
the disgrace our neighbor had brought
upon us all. If we are not mistaken
many an Idaho newspaper pointed out
the degradation of Nevada in bitter
ness rather than in sorrow Malig-
nantly the sparse population OF Ne
vada was brought to public attention
and some went so far as to thank
heaven that the population of the
state was so sparse. They felt that
the fewer there were of such people
the better for the country.
The last legislature of Idaho did
practically the same thing. We have
not only legalized the prize fights but
one community, Pocatello. with the
knowledge, consent and help OF
dozens of other communities is going
after the big event soon to be staged
by professional pugilists. Pocatello
appeals to the civic pride of the peo-
pie of Idaho and incidentally lays
before the people sordid advantages
that may accrue.
The Tribune commends rather than
criticizes the legislature and Poea-
tello. We cannot but help but note,
however, the changing fashion in
crime. The vices of one generation
are the virtues of its successor. And
the virtues of one day are the vices
of its tomorrow. There are no hard
and fast laws in crime. Or rather, to
be more exact, the public changes
its mind as to what constitutes crime,
with startling ease. We would advise
all to commit themselves gently and
not too far on these "crimes" that we
manufacture from season to season

WHAT HAS BEEN ACTUALLY
DONE FOR PEACE?
New York Tribune.)

But in spite of camouflage one thing
at least is clear. Since the armistice
was signed 1874 days have elapsed, and
with the passage of time problem
originally simple has become more and
more complex. No definite policy has
yet been adopted with any of the ma
jor questions.
What is the policy toward Russia
and the Bolshevists? No one knows.
What is the policy toward Germany
and the beaten belligerents? No one
knows. What is the policy toward the
problem of guaranteeing peace! No
one knows.
Allied soldiers. including men of
our own uniform, fight in Russia. yet
the Prinkipo conference, although
postponed, has not yet been called off.
The president turns for advice con-
corning Russia to men who had their
conclusions in their baggage before
they went there. Pro-Germans make
confidential reports to Secretary
Lansing. With respect to Italy the
ruling idea is that anything Italy seeks
lis presumptively wicked, while those
who fought for imperialism, as long
as they had bullet left, now have
good standing as anti-imperialists. :.
The war was to make the world
safe for democracy. 1t is being made
unsafe. The mandates of spurious
idealism displace those of true ideal
ism. The peace making has been
turned over to men who only half
saw the war. A taboo went out
against those of robust war faith.
Favored councillors were those who
on one excuse or another had always
been against the allies-men who had
no sympathy with the Russian revo-
luton until it paid dividends to Ger
many. What a gigantic fraud! Men
who sought compromise peace with
Germany, the most imperialistic OF ma
tions, now convict the entente OF inn
perialism!
Is there anyone so stupid as not to
see why peace is delayed-why there
lis willingness to take the chance OF
involving the world in another explo-
sion? Germany fights for delay. So
does Bolshevism.

WORLD CANNOT SAFELY
FURTHER POSTPONE PEACE
New York Times-Dem ]

The censure which has been Wis
tied upon the peace conference for
its unconscionable delay in ending
the war will be redoubled in volume
and severity if the signing Of the
treaty. is put off until May | merely
for the sake of making compre-
hensive treaty to be signed by all the
parties to the conflict There may
be good reasons for putting the
terms of peace into one treaty Instead
of four, for preparing an instrument
to be signed by Germany, Austria.
Bulgaria and Turkey as parties OF the
one part, and all the nations associated
| in the war against them as parties of
the other part But it is preposterous
to assume that the necessary changes
/ in the plan would consume month of
time; il may be declared without hes
litation that If month were required,
the change in the plan would not be
worth while.
| The worlds quarrel was with Ger
many. She was the instigator and
/ first cause of the outbreak. She is
still the head and front of the enemy
forces. When we make an end of the
war with her it will be ended with
lher allies. for they are minor guam
titles. The world is very little con-
cerned about them. Austria is shorn
and parceled; Bulgaria will have to do
what is required of her. and Turkey
lis practically nonresident. And with
Bulgaria and Turkey the United States
was not even at war. The conference
would arouse the worlds indignation.
it would give freer play to dangerous
forces that have ALREADY made trouble
enough, should it disappoint expecta-
ltion by such an unreasonable and un-
Justified postponement of peace.
We fear that the conference is in
sore need of better information as to
the present attitude of the peoples OIL
the allied nations and of the United
States toward it and its deliberations

LET THEM HAVE MARTYRS.

A good many people are afraid that
punishment visited upon the ex-em-
peror of Germany and his immediate
followers who were responsible for
the war and the intense cruelty with
which it was waged by the German
military machine will make martyrs
of them in the eyes of future genera
tons of the German people. These
people may rest assured that If the tu-
ture carnations want martyrs they
will have them whether or not. They
may also rest assured that while these
men if punished as deserved may be
martyrs that future leaders will hes
itate long before taking chances on
becoming martyrs.
Martyrdom is not attractive to the
individual who is likely to play the
leading part. Very few men, and none
of the Hun build, are willing to trade
present safety for future glory
The authors of the crimes COM
mitted by the German armies should
be punished. Guilt is personal and at
taches to the leading spirits of the
German military machine. The ex-
emperor, the ex-crown prince and the
inner circle of Wilhelmstrasse should
not be permitted to escape. To yield
to this sickly sentimentality is weak
indeed. 1t indicates that pacificism is
a long way from dead here and among
our allies.

ROOT ON LEAGUE OF NATIONS

Elihu Root. than whom there is no
greater statesman in this country, has
written a letter to Hon. Will S. Hays,
chairman of the Republican national
committee, stating his attitude toward
league of nations and discussing the
constitution of the league as pro-
posed. Mr.. Root states very clearly
that he favors a league of nations and
expresses the conviction that the
United States would shirk its duty to
the world if it failed to become a
member Mr.. Roots letter is deeply
sympathetic with the proposed league,
but he, like most everyone else who
has given the constitution as sub
mitted, consideration, feels that the
constitution as submitted must be
amended.
The letter of Mr.. Root should be
read in its entirety by every citizen
of the United States. He discusses
the project from the standpoint of
the United States, and from that
standpoint alone, the league should be
considered. We have not the space
to give Mr. Roots letter in full, but
we wish to quote three paragraphs
which are worthy of special attention.
Mr. Root near the conclusion of his
discussion says:
"I will add-without taking up
space to discuss it-that | cannot es-

Iagreemc-t as it now stands would
Itself be surrender of the Monroe
