their action in having the case against
him in the federal court continued in
definitely. Berger was a blatant pro-
German before, during and since the
war. To the extent of his ability he
tied the hands of the government. he
would have stopped all support going
to the American soldiers doing service
in France. He has been ousted from
congress for his pro-German proclivi-
ties. In public utterances he has re-
peated over and over the offenses
charged against him. In effect he has
been defying the government. He was
convicted in the federal court. The
penalty is a long term in prison.
To mark a case continued indefin-
itely' is understood to mean the end
Of the case. 1t is the polite fiction EN-
ployed when the court means dismiss
ed. but does not care to say so at that
time. What has induced the federal
authorities to show Victor Berger this
consideration? If there is a reason
strong enough to stand alone it ought
to be made public.

that Institution Haywood was released
under bonds pending an appeal Of his
case That has been many months
ago. SO far as the public is advised
no move has been made to hear or
pass upon his appeal, while in the
meantime this rch-conspirator is
free to carry on his criminal crusade
against the country. and in general
show his contempt for all laws to
which he appears to be immune.
Victor Berger, the notorious pro-
German. who has been twice denied
seat in congress on account of his
Unreasonable activity during the war,
is another who has a prison sentence
hanging over him, but is allowed the
utmost freedom to continue his at
lacks upon the government and to
encourage the elements Of disloyalty to
pursue their seditious and revolution
AIRY activity. 1t is now stated that an
order has been entered by the court
indefinitely postponing further action
in the Berger case. which means that
this convicted enemy of the govern
ment is to go not only UNPUBLISHED, but
free TO continue his reasonable activ-
ity.
The next move will probably be the
release Of Debs from prison. where he
is serving a sentence for an offense
substantially the same as those charg-
ed against Haywood and Berger. Ger
tainly in order to be consistent, the
department of justice should take
steps to give Debs his freedom No
favoritism should be shown in dealing !
with the bolshevists.

BANKER AND THE PRosPEcToR.
(Denver Mining Record)


The well-fed banker little realizes
the hardships and privations under
gone by the prospector in the search
for gold and silver-the hard metal
behind a part of the flood of paper
money now in circulation. In the west
a dollar bill was a curiosity up to
few months ago. Now they are rap
idly replacing the silver dollar in the
banks and stores. The banker has the
reputation of being opposed to invest
ments in new precious metal mining
enterprises. Many bankers are very
provincial and fail to realize that
every mine was once prospect Am
erican financial men would do we'll to
grubstake the prospector so that new
gold and silver mines will be discov-
cred to relieve our depleted stocks of
hard money.

KELLOGG PAPER MAKES AN UN-
WARRANTED CHARGE.

The Miner is not seeking a contro-
versy with its esteemed contempor-
AIRY at Kellogg, but in justice to itself
and very large number Of loyal re-
publicans in this county it feels call
Ell upon to refute an aspersion con-
tanned in the last issue of the Ward
ner-Kellogg News. Beneath a picture
Of Senator Borah the News makes this
wholly unwarranted assertion:
'1daho's premier senator whom
the Shoshone county ring is at
tempting to slap through an in
structed delegation to Chicago"
The Miner has advocated sending an
instructed delegation to Chicago and
must therefore be considered one of
the ring" referred to. Delegates are
to be sent to Chicago to give express
sion by their votes to the prevailing
sentiment in the republican party of
Idaho in the selection of a candidate
for president. The Miner believes the
sentiment is overwhelmingly in favor
OF General Wood and if so. it believes
the convention should so instruct the
delegates elected If it is found that
the sentiment as represented by the
convention favors some other candi-
date, Instructions should be given ac-
cordingly. So far as Senator Borah is
concerned, it is not necessary for the
Miner to explain its attitude toward
him, for that has been made clear in
issues Of this paper. The
senator knows it, and will deprecate
this attempt to use his name as
means Of creating discord in the re-
publican party of this county. The |
Miner. in common with majority OF [
the republicans of this county, is not
n accord with Senator Borah in its
choice Of republican candidate, but
his implies no reflection whatever
lpon the senator, much less an at
empt to slap" him The senator
himself would be the last to question
he right of republicans to exercise
heir choice of candidates and to
dopt any proper means to carry it :

Radium Watches.

The radium watch industry, which
has grown in a few years to such
large proportions began with the
production of one watch in 1903 by
DR.. George F. Kunz, according to the
New York Tribune. In 1918 about
$500 radium watches and clocks were
sold in the United States. and by 1915
there was more than a fve-fold in
crease in this number. From these
small beginnings the uses of radio
luminous compound has grown into
an industry with an output which in
1919 Appropriated 100000 American

PEAK OF HIGH PRICES.

Engineering and Mining JournaD
The cost of living has shown nc
pronounced tendency to drop. and
many mining companies are finding ii
increasingly difficult to keep their men
contented. Many such companies.
particularly those whose chief pro-
ducts are copper or gold are really
not financially able to increase wages
| in the proportion which they feel is
just to the workmen. but in most
cases the employees understand the
status of things and are reasonable in
their demands. 1t is not so hard to
bear adversely if we know that all
classes in our community are sharing
=, and that no one is profteering at
our expense.
The HOmestake company has in
creased its wage scale beginning
March and now pays underground
miners IS. Other companies are tax
ing steps to cut the cost of necessi-
ties wherever prices seem exorbitant,
either by promoting cooperative
stores. selling supplies at cost as at
Tonopah. or bringing the producer
and consumer into closer touch by
farmers markets.

WARS RUIN DEPICTED BEFORE
THE FACT.

While the vast armies of Europe
were being modified and the lower
ing clouds of war were rapidly envel-
oping the civilized world, a poem was
written BY Bartholomew F. Griffith
and published in the Boston News Blu
reau which Ebert Hubbard, who lost
his life on the Lusitania, pronounced
the biggest and best thing in a lit
erary way America has produced in a
decade" This poem described in
graphic terms the wreck and ruin that
would follow the great war that soon
thereafter burst upon the world. A
year and a half has passed since the
conclusion Of peace. and no pen has
since described the death. destruction
and desolation with the vivid realism

PRACTICAL EDUCATION AT THE
UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO.

Plans are now being worked out at
the state university at Moscow with
the view to assisting students to pre-
pare themselves for definite vocations.
Many students enter the university
with minds made up regarding their
life work and shape their course in
college to that end These will be
given every possible assistance in fur
therance of their ambition. There are
many others who enter the university
without a definite purpose upon grad
uation, and these are to receive spe-
.ciah attention in order to determine
the calling to which they are adapted
and thus direct their study and
training to that end An elaborate
QUESTIONABLE is being prepared which
all undergraduates will be required to
hn and this together with other in
vestigations to be made by the facul-
ty committee on vocational guidance,
will enable them to adopt course Of
study in line with their mental predi-
lection. The plan is briefly outlined
by Dr. H. P. Soulen, chairman Of the
university committee on vocational
training. as follows:
we expect to work both
through the students and through
prospective employers, making
ourselves a clearing house which
will bring the undergraduates in
touch with the opportunity he Is
seeking. l am sure that the larg-
er concerns, particularly if they
are in need Of technically trained
men. will be glad TO offer their CO.
operation.
students who have not fixed
upon a life work will be assisted
in coming to a wise decision and
others who have chosen their vo- 7
cation and who are shaping their I
university courses in conformity $
with their ambition will also be
given assistance
This spring we intend to make ,
a special effort to see that under G
graduates find summer work
which is not only congenial but
which also will have a definite =
value from the standpoint of the
students prospective life work"
This is a long step in the direction
popularizing college education, and OF

Dusk Dreams
CAnonymous)

''To meet my mate-the wind that
tramps the world."-Kipling.
You and l and the rest of us
Who are driftweed down the world
Who are merely mates to the tramp
ing wind
AS the drifting breeze is whirled:
We, too, have dreams as the dusk
comes on
And our weary mate lies down,
But it isn't a dream of name or fame
We missed in the dreary town.
We know, gaunt tramps of the passing
years,
What the dusk dream is that calls
And it isn't the glory we have missed
Ear of in the city walls:
But the old. old dream of sun-spun
hair
And eyes of the violet stain,
And a pair Of lips with the crimson
glow
OF a rosebud rinsed in rain.
We might have fought and we might
have won
But that isn't here or there;
We might have stayed till the laurel
came
But that isn't worth a care;
But vagabonds at the edge of dusk
we know what we've come to miss
When ghosts of children that might
have been
Come for their goodnight kiss.
