account of the fact that the terms un-
der which the timber was offered had
been so changed as to provide for com
pulsory cutting of poor grades of tim
Der, which, under ordinary market
conditions, would mean a loss of many
thousands of dollars. The action of
the Bonners Ferry commercial club
and the Bonners Ferry Lumber Com
pany in the recent controversy with
the forestry department was only for
the purpose, mainly. of preventing the
establishment of precedent whereby
the forestry department might dictate
where timber bought from the forest
reserves should be manufactured. In
this matter the local people were up
held.
r. H. Mccoy, general manager and
the vice president of the Bonners Fer
ry Lumber Company, stated yesterday
that 1t was true that the company is
planning to proceed with the cutting
Of its timber on Ruby Creek, either
this year or next. The company has
engineers on the ground laying out
logging roads, ETC., preparatory to the
construction of camps and the begin
ming of work. The local lumber COM
pany owns about rs million feet OF
timber on Ruby Creek and figures that
this timber can be cut within two
years. This timber will likely be
brought to the mill here by rail.
AS was shown in the letter of Act
ing Forester Greeley, published in the
Herald last week, the forestry depart
ment does not propose to allow the
local lumber company to run short of
timber and the loss of the Callahan
tract at this time will not result In
any curtailment of production here.
IL is true that had the Bonners Ferry
Lumber Company been able TO secure
the Callahan tract the timber could
have been logged .advantageoHsly with
that of the Ruby Greek district.

mere are some democratic papers
that take delight in trying to dip
about in the republican pot every
now and then. AS long as it is in
order for the democrat papers to
make suggestions as to the manage
ment Of affairs within the republican
organization it may not be out of
place to present, with our compli-
ments, the following fourteen planks
suggested for the national demo-
cratic platform recently by a disgust
ed Oklahoma democrat:
We the representatives Of the dem
ocratic party in convention assem-
bled, realizing that we have fooled
the American people as often as we
can fool them, knowing that a great
majority of the American people have
sense enough to know that a nolitical
party, which has been in power
should be judged by its performances
and not by its promises, have decided
that this time we will throw off the
mask, come out and frankly tell
the people what we stand for.
!. We are in favor of an autocratic
one-man government. And we print
with pride to the fact that Woodrow
Wilson has been the most autocratic
president that the world has ever
known.
2. We believe that our forefathers
made a mistake when they divided
our government into three coordinate
branches. We believe that congress
has too much power and that the
president should be given more power,
and we sincerely promise that if we
are given control of congress again
that we will submit the following
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States and will do everything
in our power to secure its adoption:
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS shall
consist of three men; a presid-
ing officer, a motion maker
and a motion seconder, and
49f, wooden automatons, with
movable right arms worked by
electrical power. No bill shall
be introduced except at the re-
quest of the president. When
ever the president desires law
upon any subject, he shall pre-
pare the bill and hand it to the
motion maker, who shall rise in
his seat and say, "Mr. Chair
man, at the request of immortal
president, | introduce the fol-
lowing bill and move it's adop-
ton" The motion seconder
shall then rise in his seat and
say, "Mr. Chairman, | second
the motion" The presiding Of
ficer shall then phone to the
White House and say, "Mr.
President, we are ready to
vote on your bill. Press on the
button. All in favor of the
bill, raise your right arms" If
any automaton shall fail to
raise it's arm when the presi-
dent presses the button, it shall
be deemed guilty of treason
and be burned and another au-
tomaton placed in its seat. By
adopting this amendment we
shall save the salaries of 497
congressman and the president
will never again be embar-
rassed by having a congress on
his hands which refuses to do
his bidding.
3. We are in favor of extrava-
gance and we point with pride to
the fact that we have blown in more
money during the seven years Wood
row Wilson has been in office than
the republicans did during the "A
years they were in power with all
the other administrations that have
been in power since the beginning
of our government.
A. We are in favor of militarism,

Union Meeting Sunday Night

w. d. Carpenter, associate sec
retary for the Inland Empire of the
Interchurch World Movement, adj
dressed a union meeting of all the
Protestant churches at the high
school auditorium Sunday night. Mr..
Carpenter, using lantern pictures and
charts to illustrate his talk, told Of
the world task of the Christian
church in terms of illiteracy, physical
SUFFERING from want of hygiene and
medicine and of the unchristian areas.
NEARLY one billion people in the
world have never heard Of Christ,
almost two-thirds of the population
of the globe" he said. "One-half
the population Of the globe can neith-
er read nor write. The largest per-
centage of illiteracy is in non-Christ-
ian lands. Millions of people are
without the slightest kowledge of
medicine or hygiene, and one of the
functions Of the Christian mission
stations is to administer to physical
illness"
Mr.. Carpnter explained the pur-
poses for which the budget of $780,
777,572 is being raised by 30 Protest
ant denominations during the week
OF April 25 to May 2.

= Easy money ana an abundance Of

A large force Of men for the produce

Free spending. which does not count
the cost or haggle over price, permits
manufacturers to disregard produce

The increase in cost of materials all

Cycles of business keep turning
