Election Victories
Cannot Be Celebrated
By Illegal Bonfires

Wading through a maze OF
words like ''inclnerators. " com
bustible Materials recepta-
cles'' heretofore established"
etc. etc, etc.. one deduces that
after election day. Nov. 2. no
bonfires will be permitted In
the fire limits OF the village
unless such fires are enclosed
or secured to avoid the spread
OF flying sparks of fire.
Specifically. the ordinance,
as passed last Wednesday night,
states that mo hay. straw or
shavings shall be kept In a stack
OF pile within the fire limits"
In other words. a ban has been
placed on haystacks. unless they
are in a barn. or are otherwise
enclosed.
Hence il behooves those bust
ness places in the fire limits TO
forthwith provide themselves
with incinerators 'Or other en-
closed receptacles" In which TO
burn waste paper, boxes. old let
tiers. cigar butts, old checks,
and such stuff. else Marshal AL
len is apt 10 hail them before
Police Judge Ripley who is
privileged to assess a fine
against them not exceeding
one hundred bucks.
II is not known for certain
that the ordinance as passed is
particularly aimed at bOafires
which are ordinarily held here
in celebration of election victo-
ries, but the provisions of
the ordinance state that IL
shall be enforced twenty days
after its passage and publica-
ton, which was on October IA.
the village Legislators have
dealt a singing blow to Filler
residents, who, since the passage
of the bone-dry law have now
had taken away from them their
last and only method OF celebrat-
ing hilariously.

LEAGUE ISSUES


Nearly a hundred persons from
Filler and enyirons heard William G.
NcAdoo. former secretary OF the
Treasury and direct general % rail-
roads. delivered an address on the
League OF Nations at the Layenng
theater In Twin Falls last night.
Mr.. McAdoo was greeted with one
Of the largest audiences ever as
sembled In Twin Falls county. who
listened TO the prominent democrat
make an urgent appeal for the adop-
ton Of the League OF Nations by
America.
The League OF Nations Is the most
momentous question OF the time" he
said. He declared that America
could enter the league without en-
dangering her sovereign rights. as
sorting that Il would be necessary for
congress to declare whether or not
this country would ever have tC send
her soldiers abroad.
The speaker called attention TO the
arbitration provisions OF the league
covenant which provide that coun-
ell OF nine must deliberate for sls
months, and then recommendation
may only be made America. he said
would have one member OF this coun-
Ell. Another three months would be
required 10 place the matter IN the
hands % the leagues assembly. he
said. adding hat America would have
one vote In this body to England 3
six. but that decisions OF the assem-
by must be by unanimous vote.
He asserted that II these measures
failed. the economic boycott was the
next effective measure that might be
employed. This weapon alone would
bring any nation 10 its feet in so
days. he said.
He maintained that Article X was
essential 10 the league. stating that
Il was only external In application
and did not deal with internal affairs.
Assailing the republican nominees
plan OF an association OF nations. he
called attention TO the fact that there
we're no nations with whom to as
soeiate excepting Russia, Austria,
Germany. Mexico and Turkey
Mr.. McAdoo dwelt at some length
on the economic side of the league
question. explaining that taxes could
be lowered by Joining the league. in
asmuch as the reduced ornaments
would eliminate great tax burdens
