! wonder how many of our readers
know that little over 800 years ago
there was made in Europe an effor,
to unite the nations in a league to set
tie disputes and prevent wars II was
to be called the Christian Common
wealth. The idea is supposed to have
originated with SulIy. the great prime
minister Of Henry Nv OF France This
was the great. wise, Iiberal-minded
Henry of Navarro; and history be-
lieves that either he or his great min
lister were capable of originating the
idea. He came to the throne of
France after along period of civil war
and contention. in 1889, and was assas-
mated by a monk in 1910, which threw
all Europe again into wrangles and
ended the scheme For while the
great Elizabeth of England had ia
vored the plan, having respect for
Henry, but, dying in 1908, was fol-
lowed by James vi of Scotland,
James / of England He is one of the
curiosities of kingship; a scholar of

learning. and the Duke of Sully called
him "the wisest fool in Europe a
label which history has kept on him,
and he could not participate in any
thing without arrogating TO himself
superior wisdom and dictation.
The plan proposed by Henry and
Sully was to reduce the powers of
Europe to IS. and it is singular that
the noted Congress of Vienna, trying
to compose Europe after the fall of
Napoleon, chose that number for the
recognized powers of Europe at that
time. 1t is interesting to note that at

State Schools to
Ask More Moneys

University OF Idaho. Moscow, Nov.
SO--A meeting of the state board OF
education to consider budgets of state
educational institutions will be held
in Boise December E, according to an
announcement made yesterday by DR..
T. A Bryan. commissioner of educa-
ton, who was here for a short con-
ference with L. F. Parsons, univer-
s;ty executive secretary.
We will necessarily ask >of the
coming legislature larger appropria-
tons than those granted for the last
biennium." Commissioner Bryan de-
clared, owing to the depreciation OF
money and to the fact that the. state
schools, particularly the university
are growing rapidly.
"Eaca. institution has kept within
its appropriation but has done so at
the danger of sacrificing efficiency
and by paying low salaries. Sur
rounding states have already made
funds available for allowing of sub
stantial increase in salaries to instruc-
tors in their state schools and Idaho
must do likewise in order to maintain
Its teaching force at high standard" y
Commissioner Bryan said that in
travelling over the state he found the
university growing rapidly in popu-
larity and that next fall large in
crease in enrolment must be looked
for.

DAVIS RETURNED
 10 COUNTY JAIL

Charlie Davis, negro under bond for his alleged assault on John Hol- land at the sanctifed (negro) church here the night of August 30, was re turned to the county jail yesterday by Deputy Sheriff J. l. Summers, at the request of his bondsmen. Davis first made bond for his appearance before the grand jury in January, but lately some of the sureties on his bond with drew and he was returned to jail. Ac- cordlng to reports, Davis attacked Hol- land with razor, badly slashing his neck and almost recapitating him. Holland recovered and some time ago resumed his work here.
