Children of every race and religion are fed there. Other work of the mis- sion is with 1epers, and with old men and women. The mission of which Bohun took charge about four years ago, is not maintained by any organi- zation, but is held together by free will subscriptions.
 When Bohun talks with a visitor, particularly with an American who knows the West. his references to his work are mingled with spontaneous tales of t<hard riding and hard shoot ing men, Of John Wesley Harding, for instance, the frock-coated gam bier of Fl Paso, who.

 But through the years came glimpses to him of something better. A touch of remorse in Australia, a good example in Europe, the sight of a woman who reminded him of one ''he used to know" the influence of Father Damien, who gave his life to the 1epers of Hawaii and who was so loved that there was scarcely a dry eye in grog shop or ships cabin from Manila to Melbourne when he died, such things made him wonder. And finally, worn and world-knowing, when he drifted back to that New Mexico from which he had started

Buenos Aires, Sept. 23-On a street in Buenos Aires which might be call ed the backwash of the world Judging from the human derelicts cast up from every stream and every land, a North American COW puncher of the old West is conducting a rescue mis- sion where hungry children are fed and tired souls are comforted. He is John Calvert de Bohun. who says he '@was born on the hurricane deck of a cayuse'' in New Mexico

our boys fight at st: Mihiel, the Ar

No; a thousand times no. Rather
it was for system of government

where there is liberty of voice and

that are wrapped around the particu-
lar profession or trade or craft with
which he happens to be identified. "
(Applause.)
After citing many of the ludicrous
and terrible results of such a system
of government, Mr.. French arraigns
sovietism as follows:
The Arrangement
What, then, is my arraignment of
sovietism according to the soviet con-
struction?
81. The people have no direct
vote or voice in government, except
the farmers in their local rural
soviets and the city jewellers in their
urban soviets.
'2. The rural, county, provincial,
regional, and .All-Russian soviets are
elected indirectly, and the people
have no direct vote in the election.
90. The people have no voice in
the election Of executive officers of
the highest or lowest degree.
4. There is no mention of justice
or judicial officers in the constitu-
ton.
SO. The people are very largely
dsifranchised.
&c. The farmer of Russia is dis
eliminated against:
go Equal representation is
denied him.
"(b) He may vote for only the
members of the local rural soviet,
not for rural, county, provincial,
regional, or All-Russian Congress of
Soviets.
"(c) The farmer who employs
any profitable labor is disfranchised.
"(d) The city voter has double
voice in electing the regional and
all-Russian soviets. E5
Z. The system arises class against
class; the voters vote by trade and
craft groups instead of on the basis
Of thought units.
(a) This means rank selfishness.
ID It kills national and even
provincial ard county interest or
loyalty.
s. The system strikes blow at
the church and the home.
8. The system is pyramidal and
means highly centralized and auto
cratic power"
In closing Mr.. French great ap-
plause in the House when he said:
"In spite of statements of agita-
tors, in spite Of leniency that we ac-
cord even the anarchist and l., W.. w.
speaker who denounces our Govern
ment to uphold and exploit the feat
urse of the soviet system, take 1t
that the great rank and file of Ameri-
cans hold closely wrapped up in their
souls that which represents the cost
price of free government in America
and that they are not going to throw
away their birthright or sell it for a
mess of pottage. They turn back in
the traditions of their families and
they see wildly and live over again
the trials, hardships, suffering, and
death of the fathers of the Revolu-
ton, who purchased our Government
for us. They follow thru the suffer-
ings at Valley Forge, they see the
sacrifice at Bunker Hill and at York
town, they see the struggle of free
people everywhere, they follow thru
the struggles again that our country
has been asked to bear from the days

Lewis Williams Of Boise
on Tour Of Inspection
of Deputies and
In District
URGES PAYMENT
Says Tax Eyaders Will
be Prosecuted by
Government

Collector Lewis Williams, OF the
United States revenue district fol
the State of Idaho, stationed al
Boise was in B}ackf00t last week
Mr.. Williams is on a tour of inspec-
ton of the various revenue deputies
and agents htruout the district.
Collector Williams, stated while
here that his trip was intended more
to stimulate the citizens of Idaho
to the prompt filing of returns and
payment of taxes rather than the
supervision of his deputies at this
time.
Having in mind the great con-
gestion of income taxpayers at the
last moment last year, and the con-
sequent inability of the office force to
properly take care of them, l would
urge prospective taxpayers to attend
to this matter at once" said Collec-
tor Williams.
"This matter of making an income
tax return" the collector continued,
lis duty which we owe to our
government. 1t must be done, and
the sooner done, the better service
my deputies can give the public. 1t
will be physically impossible to &C
comodate the many thousands OF
persons who come on the last day.
inspectors and agents are now
busy in my office at Boise, making
lists of those who have made income
tax returns for last year. They will
comb the state from one end to the
other, with a fine tooth comb, for
delinquents. Those who have sought
to evade the income tax law, as we'll
as those who have made fraudulant
returns, will be made to feel the
heavy hand of the national GOV
eminent.
Every man, or woman who has
received in money, or property, as
much as $4,000 if married, or $1,000
if not married, for services, interest
or profits, during the year 1913, is
required to make an income tax re-
turn. The fact that man or woman
is a laborer and earns but small
amount over the exempt amount does
not prevent that person from making
a return and paying the tax.
'If a person is not of legal age
and has received as income the
amounts specified above, that person
is required to pay tax on all above
the exempt amount.
"This information" the collector
stated, lis given to the public for
the reason that many persons think
they have right to first take out
their living expenses before calculat-
ing their liability to the income tax.
This is incorrect. The exemptions
of $1,000 and $4,000 are intended for
that purpose, and all above these
sums, except there are minor child
rem, is subject to the tax.
1T is not intended to unduly
alarm the citizens of Idaho, but
merely to inform them that the pen
alties for failure to comply with the
larw are very drastic. Imprison-
ment for a long period may be in
flicted on fragrant cases of persons
disregarding the law, and heavy fines
are certain to be imposed on those
who do not comply with the laws by
filing return and paying the tax be-
fore March 15."

offer its services as a co-ordinating
and cooperating agency to any group
or individual who may desire its
help. 1t can do regular, systematic
work so that the family in distress
will not receive hap-hazard, hit-or-
miss attentions from various sources
and perhaps no~adequate service or
assistance from any source. Home
service will also undertake what
child welfare work or community
service may be necessary or desir~
able.
In addition to home service, Red
Cross chapters may develop first aid
classes in home hygiene, care of the
isck, sanitation and dietetics. Every
chapter should have a strong junior
Red Cross organization which means
that our children will grow up in
the spirit of unselfishness and human
brotherhood. There is much work
to be done also in public health thru
the development of health centers,
clinics and home and school nursing.
The northwestern division advises
each chapter to employ paid exc
cutive' who will be trained in home
service work and who will develop
this broad, many-sided Red Cross
program in all parts of the county
under the direction of the Red Cross
board and other volunteers. x
The division office of the Red
Cross will assist by Offering short
course of training in home service
work which will be an advantage to
those who are assisting in the county
and city. Many chapters in the
northwestern division have already
organized under this plan.
During the war the home service
committee of Bingham county chap
ter has done splendid work under
the leadership of Mrs. Neil F.. Boyle.
1t has played the part of the Good
Neighbor to many service menfand
their families and is indeed we'll
fitted to continue to befrend any who
may be in need of friendship.
After thoro discussion, the execu-
tive board of the Bingham county
chapter voted to extend the home
service to civilian relief and also to
employ a paid executive who will
be trained in this work. 1t was also
decided to request the division office
to supply a chapter course of instruc-
tiOn.
A committee, consisting of Mrs.
Neil F. Boyle, Mrs. John H. Early
and George F. Gagaon was appointed
to look up and recommend to the
executive board properly qualified
worker.
The present executive board con-
sists of the following:
Milton H. Fehnel, chairman; Mrs.
George A. Line, vice-chairman; Mrs.
Lillyan S. Lee, secretary; George F.
Gagon, treasurer; Mrs. Nettie Boyle,
Mrs. Louise B. Early, Mrs. George
Anderson, Mrs. w. w. Beck, Mrs.
Clifton Albertson, Mrs. Grace Faul-
coner, Mrs. Mabel Miltamuth, Leon
j. Chapman, James Duckworth, j. E.
Estenson, W.. B. Goodnough, E. A.
Melton.
There are also representatives on
the board from the seven branches
belonging to the chapter, but not all
of these have been chosen.

Uncle Joe Cannon, who as a boy and
young man did the hardest kind OF
manual labor-that practically all OF
the members Of this body have gone
thru the period Of physical toll in
order to attain that which has come
to them.
These men are directly repre-
sentative of the people OF this
