William Jennings bryan has uS>.u
ed after mature elaboration that ne
does not want to be the presidential
candidate of the prohibition element
of the country, and has declined the
honor with thanks. Mr.. Bryan is a
shrewd politician. He knows ne
would have about as much show IN
that kind of a race as a SNOWFALL
would have of lasting very long on
hot stove.
The public will not begrudge the
railroad men their raise in wages II
the men in return only do their level
best to earn it. The great trouble is
that it takes six men nowadays to DO
the work of one and needs usually a
half dozen bosses to watch that one
man work. The average business man
and citizens believe in paying good
wages to the men if they get results
back again.
The democrats made great hit
when they nominated their candidate
for the vice-presidency The name of
Roosevelt adds considerable strength
to any ticket and with Franklin u.
Roosevelt as the vice-presidential
nominee, it will get votes that no 9TH
er name would. The democrats did
not like the name of Roosevelt years
ago when the late Teddy was on the
ticket-but it is different now.
Gov. Cats has refused to call spe-
cial session of the Florida legislature
to act on the ratification of the wom-
an suffrage amendment. The COVER
nor is liable to get scratched by the
others Cats if he gets in their way.
The couth has shown very little pro-
gress on this proposition so far nearly
every southern state-alE of them
democratic-have voted against suff-
rage. Yet we are Informed that the
republican party is to be blamed in
case suffrage is defeated.
New Rockford is making another
big effort to get vote on the removal
of the capital from Bismarck to that
city, and has been stopped for the
time being by the refusal of Tom Hail.,
secretary of state, who refuses to ac
cept the petitions for filing claiming
that the names received four years
ago are not any good for this time.
The matter will now have to be tried
out before the supreme court. What
ever the outcome in the supreme
court may be in our opinion New
Rockford has very little chance of re-
moving the capital from Bismarck to
New Rockford We cannot see where
anything can be gained for the people
of the state in so doing.

The committee of twenty-one ap-
pointed by the I. V. A. last winter to
sort of map out plan of campaign
against Townleyism, is in session to-
day at Grand Forks for the purpose
Of mapping out a plan for the fall
campaign. Here's hoping that their
deliberations will be wisely conducted
and that when they get through they
will present a united front and go
forth into the campaign with renewed
vigor to win next November. We no.
lice that the league organ at Fargo,
the Courier-News, this morning has
discovered today that P. D. Norton is
to be the candidate for governor and
J. F. T. O'Connor for the senate.
Yesterday it was somebody else and
tomorrow and the next day this same
paper will have somebody else-just
mere guess work with the big idea of
trying to divide the independent
forces.

The prohibition party, meeting at
Lincoln, Neb., to nominate a presiden-
tial candidate and running mate, has
drafted William J. Bryan to head their
ticket. Up to the present time it is
not known whether Mr.. Bryan will ac-
cept this honor. It will be remember
ed that Mr.. Bryan has already run for
the presidency three times, about as
many, if not more than any other
man in this country. He has cast his
hat into the ring at the invitation of
a bunch of over enthusiastic delegates.
He not only lost his hat but he also
came long ways from getting the
coveted seat at Washington. We are
wondering whether, with three good
hats already wasted, whether he will
risk another.

loss of any kind.
The present unsettled financial sit
uation causes some anxiety in the Sc
lection of an absolutely safe invest
ment paying a reasonable rate of in
terest.
The United States Treasury De-
partment as a part of it's Savings
Movement is offering Treasury Saw
ings Certificates in denominations of
$1O0 and $1,000 maturity value. The
500 maturity value denomination
costs $3.50 during July, 1920, is reg
istered in the name of the owner at
the time of issue and will yield 4.32
per cent interest on the investment.
Treasury Savings Certificates may

Notwithstanding the big bluff Of the
Courier-News, the meeting of the
committee of Fl at Grand Forks last
week was a very amicable one in ev-
cry particular and the union forces en-
dorsed a ticket to vote for at the fall
election with Hon. j. F. T. O'Connor
as the candidate for governor. The
Courier-News is doing it's best to try
and work up feeling Of dissention be-
tween the two parties but it will fail
in it's object. There will be perfect
unity between the two and Mr.. O'Con-
nor is going to get the backing of the
republicans opposed to Townleyism
just as much as Mr.. LANCER did. 1t
is a question of principle and not pol
tics with a majority of the people of
this state and the majority of the
people are against Townleysm and
state socialism.

353RD KANSAS INFANTRY ISSUE
OFFICIAL HISTORY

Considerable interest is being man
fested in the manuscript which has
just been completed by the historians
dictated to the men killed in action
The 353rd Kansas which was the
only regiment of the Middle West to
be decorated by the French govern
ment was part of the 89th Division
made up of drafted men and stationed
at Camp Funston. GeneroI Wood
drilled this division and took it to
New York for ernbarkation but did
not sail with the men as orders were
issued for his command to go across
without him Arriving at the other
side, this division was almost i1rmed-
lately plunged into the hardest
fighting, and covered itself with
glory.
This history follows faithfully and
in detail the activities of the 353rd
Kansas Infantry, is written in a clear,
strong and vivid style, and while his
torica1 in character, it furnishes
thrills unequa1led in the most daring
and photographs, this book, when is
sued by the publishers who are now
printing it, seems destined to enjoy a
high rank in historical literature and
to meet with considerable popularity
Rev Otis Gray, of Wichita, Kansas,
who was formerly the Chaplain of the
353rd Kansas Infantry, is in charge
of the production and sale of the vol
ume which will be issued in a limited
edition.

KANSAS

Kansas is large body of land en-
tireIy surrounded by the United
States It lies wholly within the
topic of kafir corn.
This state was first discovered by
the Indians, who raised some corn and
considerable cain, but for the last half
century it has been occupied entirely
by Kansans, who raise prosperity
From the rich lowlands of the Mis-
souri, valley Kansas reaches westward
and upward, 400 miles toward the
Rockies and 1000 feet toward the
stars. She spreads a table of plenty
200 miles wide and invites the world.
Her front door is the chief market
city of the whole Southwest and the
latch string is always out
Kansas is the heart of the nation
and with each annual throb there
pours into the arteries of commerce a
1ifegiving flood of cereal wealth. Year
ly upon her vast plains there grows
more wheat than was of record in the
whole United States when she was
born
Here vast expanse of golden grain
includes more wheat acres than in
any other state while her plot of the
unrivalled hard winter wheat is Iarg-
er than that of any other political
unit on earth. Between these fields of
wheat lie the valley, evergreen with
natures choicest fodder, alfalfa
Averaging more than ZOE, 700 900
bushels of wheat for every year since
1915, thus far exceeding all other
states, she also exceeds her nearest
sister by more than 100000 acres of
alfalfa, and her yearly value of hay
is greater than that of any other one
of her farm crops save wheat alone.
Nearly 1000, 900 acres of the prince
~ sorghums wave their pluned heads
in the summer breezes, a crop un-
known in American agriculture wher
she was born, while nearby the serried
ranks of corn, stretching beyond the
| horizon stand warder against the vol
| of want.
| Beneath her sod lies buried a min
| eral wealth less only than that of hel
| fields. From man-made puncture:
| there oozes, each year, 500, 900 ,OOt
in oil; the miners pick brings a vas
| wealth in coal and metal and cenen
/ while the pumps yield their millions
| in salt and the drills other millions
| of earth-made gas for the comfort O.
her people.
| A mere youth, measured by tn,

l
| her brief three-score of years Kan
| sas has moved mans horizon far to

Her balmy breezes watt the incens

Nance to adversely and her focks AM

NEW GEOLOG|ST FOR
IDAHO UNIVERSITY.
-. +-r ID =,
SUCCESSOR TO d. C. LIVINGSTON
BELIEVED TO BE VALUABLE
ADDITION.

DR.. Francis B. Laney, who several
years has been a member of the stair
of the United States Geological Sur
vey, has been appointed professor OF
geology at the University of Idaho
to succeed Prof D. G. Livingston.
This was announcement made this
morning by Dean Francis A Thon-
son of the university school of mines
CDR. Laney has attained distinction
in many phases of geological work,
said Dean Thomson today, but OF
late years he has paid his prlnclpai
attention to the study of contact cop
per deposits. His most notable piece
of work along this line was his IN
vestigation of the deposits OF Duck
town. Tenn, in collaboration with
w. H. Emmons.
''For the past two field seasons, DR..
Laney has been working in the state
of Idaho in the Seven Devils and ad-
iacent areas, having been detailed by
the u. S. Geological Survey to con-
duct this research in cooperation
with the Idaho bureau of mines ana
geology. 1t was from Red Ledge,
deep in the Seven Devils country,
that we received his telegram OF ac-
ceptance.
sDr. Laney has done particularly
capable work in the microscopic ex-
animation of ores with reference to
their method of formation. During
the war he devoted all his time to the
microscopic testing of alloys used IN
connection with the manufacture OF
ordnance.
eve feel particularly fortunate in
securing a man of DR.. Laney's cali
ber. His scholastic training, which
includes a Ph. D. degree from Yale,
has been unusually thorough and his
western experience makes him percu-
Iiarlv well qualified to deal with the
geological problems Of Idaho"
Dean Thompson also announced to-
day the appointment Of Virgil Kill
ham, a University of Washington
graduate, as instructor in geology.
Mr.. Kirlzham has been engaged
this summer with DR.. j. P. Duwalda
of the u. S. G. S. in reconnaissance
of the oil and gas possibilities OF
southwestern Idaho.

STANDPOINT CHIEF
QUITS IN DISGUST
LUMBER TOWN TOO TOUGH FOR
HEAD OF POLICE FORCE
MAYOR WON'T HELP.

STANDPOINT, Idaho-(Special)-
Ernest Kitchen, chief of police, has
rendered his resignation as a result
of troubles that came up in the hand
ling of the policing arrangements
during the Homecoming celebration
last week.
The committee on arrangements in
structed him to see that the city was
kept clean Of rowdyism and drunken
ness during the celebration and he
started in to do this but found he
needed assistance He called upon the
committees for 12 men and instructed
them to help him close up the boot

We're running with little effort at con-
cealment.
This, these deputies refused to do
and they were dismissed.
Mayor Lets The Show Run
Later the school board closed the
show known as the "forty- y-niners" and
Mayor Elliott was appealed to by the
management of this outfit and he
told them to take possession of Sec
ond avenue from Main to Church
streets. This was done without any
call upon the chief of police, his auth
ority in the matter being entirely
ignored.
AS a result he made no arrests and
handed in his resignation, which he
expectd would be acted upon by the
council at the regular meeting Mon
day night, but that being holiday,
no quorum was present and the coun-
Gil adjourned until Wednesday night
when Mr.. Kitchens resignation Will
no doubt be accepted and his sue
cessor appointed.
Mr.. Kitchen has been in office since
May, 1919, and his term will not ex-
pire until May of next year.
