Discusses Article K.
Mr.. Taft dealt at length with the
much-discussud reservation on arti-
Gle X, which declares that the United
States assumes no obligation to en-
ploy its military or naval forces in
foreign affairs unless Congress SO
authorizes by joint resolution. He
said that 1t was perfectly manifest
that the friends of the treaty cannot
get sixty-four votes for the treaty
unless they consent to some such
reservation as this" He urged the
democratic senators to accept the pro-
vision because III we cannot get q

walton is concerned. the former Presi-
dent maintained that:
The words of this reservation, in
so far as they affect the obligation of
the United States to furnish military
or naval forces under any article, are
not important, for no such positive
obligation is created by any other
article"

Believes Others Will Accept.

In respect to the possibility of the
other nations accepting the reserva-
ton, Mr.. Taft expressed the belief
that they would be willing to do so.
They know u.s." he said. They re-
alize that we are in way the spoiled
child of the world in our enormous
prosperity and our immunity from the
danger that European countries have.
They know we are not aggressive and
ambitions for further territory.
They know that we are much more
likely to be stirred by moral obliga-
ton to act for the world when danger
threatens than we are to subscribe to
legal obligations in advance"
In conclusion, Mr.. TAFT asserted
that once the league was in opera

found to have been based on most
unfair and improbable hypothesis"

perceive most emphatically it's use

NORTHWEST PEACE
JUBILEE At TACOMA
Getty OF DESTINY" PLANS BIG
Sunday CELEBRATION
JUNE 3O-JCLY q.

Tacoma is undertaking one of the
largest celebrations ever held west of
the Mississippi river, in the form of a
jubilee commemorating peace, a six
day celebration, from June 80 to July
s, to be named the Northwest Peace
Jubilee.
While Tacoma Is to be the scene of
activities, the magnitude of the cele-
bration is such that it will include
the entire Northwest. In that city is
located the onyl speedway on the Pa
cific coast and the most pretentious
open-air theater, the Stadium. With
these two features as a nucleus, the
committee has outlined galaxy of
attractions superior to any in the
past.
The races at the speedway will have
as entrants the most noted drivers in
the United States. 1t is proposed to
have symphony orchestra of 1875
pieces in connection with the finest
vocalists, in the world, who will stage
a program in the Stadium. In addi-
ton, the downtown jubilee will bid
fair to rival the,Mardi Gras of New
Orleans
One feature of the celebration will
be contest for the election of Miss
Columbia and the committee hopes to
have the nomination of one or more
young ladies from this city and coun-
Ity. These ladies will be elected by
sale of tickets to count as votes. The
funds raised by this contest in each
city will be used to defray the ex-
penses of the various girls elected, of
which there will be 4S maids, repre-
senting the 48 states, and a Miss Co
lumbia, the queen of the celebration.
The entry of contestant will be
a large advertising feature for this
section and 1t will assist in making
the jubilee a success for the entire
Northwest. Anyone interested in the
contest may obtain a nomination
blank upon application to the North
west Peace Jubilee, Tacoma.

BULK OF DIVISION WILL BE
SENT TO CAMP LEWIS
FOR DISCHARGE
PART OF 362ND HAS LANDED
Only Three Detachments of ANY
Size Among Arrivals of
Last Week

Camp Lewis and the cities OF the
northwest would not be completely and
entirely satisfied with the manner of
the return of the 91st division unless
the whole organization came together
and paraded and camped as a division.
OF course that cannot be. The next
best thing is for regiments to come as
nearly intact as can be arranged. Some
such plan will be partially carried out.
The various organizations comprising
the 91st division are arriving at New
York now and will be sent west for dis
charge in few days. Then great will
be the rejoicing.
AS a matter Of fact scores Of the men
Of the 91st, wearing either the fir tree
or the blue circle and w. w. insignia,
have already returned to camp and
have received their discharges or are
in the hospital or convalescent center.
But these have come singly or in small
groups as casuals, and there has been
no opportunity for the general jubilee
that will take place when they arrive in
large numbers.
Last week when the first detachments
Of the 36srd infantry landed at New
York. it was announced that the units
replacements and transfers. would nee
essarily be scattered to many camps
! for rehabilitation. and that only COM
paratively small parts of them would
return in a body to Camp Lewis. This
statement has since been modified, and
1t is now certain that the larger part
OF a regiment will arrive at time.
Thus the cities which claim a large
proportion OF the boys as home boys
will be able to have them parade and
accept entertainment as did the several
coast artillery organizations recently
returned.
Hoboken telegraphed the command
ing general early this week list Of
S1st division organizations due to ar
rive at Hoboken April 16. which can be
expected to reach Camp Lewis before

TJERE Is a brand new type OF

which has baffled automOtive en-
tineers-how to combine riding
comfort with light weight and
economy.
Our new Three-P0i1t CantileVer
Springs make this possible.
These are the first springs OF
their kind and they are made of
chrome vanadium steel. They are
exclusive with Overland.
Because of these springs, Over

ities of large heavy, expensive, long

ADVANTAGES and economy Of small
light cars.
With l00-inch wheelbase, Over

Idaho School Lands
Bring Record Prices

The record price for school land
in the state of Idaho was reached
last week, when I. H. Nash, state
land commissioner. during a land
sale in southern Idaho sold tract
of land in the Twin Falls region for
$310 an acre. Those who are in po-
sition to know declare that this is
the highest price ever received by
the state for this class of land. This
particular tract of land was we'll i'm
proved and was appraised by the
state board at $50.
During the sale of state land in
vicinity, the first of series
of sales to be conducted during the
summer in various parts Of the state,
4tate land to the amount Of 100000
was sold in the counties of Twin
:, Minidoka and Cassia. Land
thruout the latter county sold ex-
ceedingly well, establishing other
Ugh marks in point of price. One
act was disposed Of for $165 an
acre and another tract brought $145.
Land thruout these counties, with
he exception of few tracts, was
appraised at from $40 to $40 an
acre. but brought a much greater

tied. The water is within reach
of some of the tracts in Twin Falls

CIVIL WAR VETERANS ATTEND

Owing to the early hour and other
entertainments it happened that not
enough veterans attended the Mon
day evening meeting of the soldiers
and sailors organization. The next
meeting will be called for June 16,
and it will be the last chance to
vote on a delegate to represent Bing=
ham county at the state convention
at Boise, June 26.
William Crawford and E. E.
Thompson, veterans of the civil war,
were present Monday evening at the
K. Of P. hall to present to the new
organization their time honored post
standard, a gift of Senator Shupe
many years ago when the Bingham
county G. A. r. post had more than
three members, to which number
the survivors are now diminished.
They desire to pass on their treas
ured flag to the younger men as an
heirloom Of patriotism and emblem
of undying loyalty. The two veterans
will be at the next meeting of the
world war veterans for the presen-
tation Of the flag.
