All over the Continent the masses are
living an artificial life. Cafes are
crowded and there is music and dane
ing everywhere. Prices are unbeliev-
ably high, but money seems plentiful.
, strikes, revolutionary meetings and
socialist parades are treated almost
as II they were a normal part Of the
ecuntry's life. In Antwerp, Socialist
aemonstrations drew more attention
than the Olympic games. In London,
games between American and English
athletes received newspaper notice Sec
ond only to the threat Of national
strike.
The clerk Of the Exchange Bureau
In Brussels explained the lack Of francs
on Monday morning by saying that
most OF the company's funds had been
deposited in bank vaults Saturday, as
q revolutionary attack had been feared
on Sunday.
Much Trouble for Britain
There is no such fear in London.
industrially, and other troubles with
regard to Ireland, India, France, Po-
land and Mesopotamia, but only ex-
trcme pessimists are seeing visions of
revolution here. Nevertheless, a pro-
foundly important movement is taking
place. But it is more evolutionary
than revolutionary. A year ago Eng
land had the railway strike, which AZ
z!ed out. This September it is threat
ened with more serious stoppage of
industrial life.
Interest in the Polish situation has
rather died down, largely because of
serious developments within the Unit
ed Kingdom, but still watchful eye is
being kept on the rest of Europe. Ger
man statesmen are not missing any
opportunity to take advantage Of the
Polish situation and the divergence in
the policy Of the Allies. Foreign Min
lister Won Simons made a speech in
the Reichstag in which he said that
Germany had rejected a tempting Boil
shevist offer intended for French con-
sumption.

PLAN TO RUSH WORK ON
NEW EQUITY BUILDING
w. H. McClusky Selected To Act As
Manager; Proposes to Hurry
Mill to Early Completion

w. H. McClusky of Riverside Mon
day was confirmed as general man.
ager of the Caldwell Equity to succeed
J. S. Flanagan who resigned last week.
Mr.. McClusky has taken up his res
idence in Caldwell and expects to re-
main here indefinitely to have active
charge of the Equity business.
Monday morning Mr.. McClusky an
nounced that work would begin i'm
mediately on the new Equity mill and
elevator to be erected on the site of
the present Equity plant. Some diff
fculty in financing the venture has
been overcome through cooperation
of the members and it is expected that
work will be rushed to completion
without further interruption.
c. E. Silbaugh was given the con-
tract for the demolition of the build
ings now on the premises and expects
to begin work today. Mr.. Silbaugh is

ASPIRANTS FOR COUNTY
OFFICE FILED

Petition was filed Thursday, or will
be filed today, by the Caldwell Trac-
ton company asking the public utili-
ties permission to permanently ban
don and dismantle the Mcneil branch.
Announcement to this effect was made
Thursday by w. r. Sebree
1t is believed here that the petition
will be granted. For some reason the
belief has ben held that when potatoes
were ready for shipmet, Mr.. Sebree
would be begin again freight service
on the line until this years crop had
been shipped. That he has no inten
ton of doing this is evidenced by the
petition asking permission to disman-
tie the line.
Mr. Sebree has received several Of
fers for the scrap materials which will
result fro mdismantling the line and
is expected to sell all equipment and
materials on the basis of one of these
offers.

STATUTE MAKES
MANY CHANGES
New Election Law Has Many
Unfamiliar Features To
Cause Uncertainty

Saturday is the last day upon which
candidates for political office may file
nomination papers, under the statute
passed by the last legislative session
which returned Idaho to the conven-
ton system, supplanting the old pri-
mary method of selecting candidates.
This law required that nomination
papers be filed 80 days prior to the
county primary, the date of which this
year is August 3, the first Tuesday of
that month.
Simultaneously with the nomination
papers, the candidate must file GER
tifcate of political faith signed by the
county committeeman. If this pro-
ceedure is impracticable for any rea-
son. the candidate is permitted to use
the signatures of FIVE reputable men,
bers of his party testifying to his
party affiliations for at least two years
prior to his candidacy.
Filing Fees
For county offices and state, filing
fec of per cent of the salary for the
year is required of each candidate,
with the single exception of candidates
for the legislature where special pro
vision sets the fee at 81.
Provisions are also made for nom-
nations by petitions, 5000 signatures
for a state or national office, 800 for
a county office and 80 for precincl
office. Vacancies may be filled by
appointment by party officers when
properly authorized but the statute is
not clear in defining whether or no,
this can be done after the primary
election has been held.
No longer is it possible for voter
to be sworn in at the polls. Abuse
of this privilege which led to enor.
mously increased work for clerks and
Judges of elections made return t.
the strict registration requirement
necessary. To vote this year, electors
must register. One registration is
sufficient to cast ballot at both the
primary election in August and the
general election next fall
Considerable confusion has ariser
as a result of the new law and more
or less uncertainty exists as to tn.
exact procedure to be followed. Thu.

democratic party followers have pu

rapidity as the time draws neare
when nominations can no longer b.
made. 1t is understood that virtual,
complete tickets for state and count
offices will be filed by representa-
tives of these two parties.

of this entire system will again be re-
sumed. The Wilder branch is being
operated by the 0. S. L. Ry, with
steam power, with limited service;
however, it is reported that the freight
service will care for crop movements
on this branch. Those who are de-
pendent on the Mcneil branch for
crop movements will probably have to
resort to motor trucks. which will
probably provide method sufficient
to move crops but at an advanced rate
and an inferior service. especially as
to the movement of the potato crop.
Snake River Bride-It is encourage
ing to report that the Commissioner
of Public Works is advertising Dor
bids for the construction of the Pickle
Butte bridge. The bids are to be
opened early in July and in the fact
that funds to construct this bridge
are in possession of the state it is pro-
bable that anaward will be made.
Financially-There seems to be am
pie funds for the carrying on of all
business and for ESSENTIAL purposes, but
an almost complete check on funds for
new business ventures, real estate
transactions or for building purposes
other than for completion of such
building as are now under way. 1t IS
preducted that with the movement of
crops there will again be a marked
change in the present situation, but
a change to conservatism will likely
become noticeable for some time to
come which. of course, will depress
prices, hogh costs and wages. Those
whoy will place share of their earn
ings of the result from the sale of
crops or property disposed of into a
savings account will no double take
satisfaction in their foresight at some
time prehaps not so distant in the
future.

EXPECT LOWER
PRICE FOR HAY
WILL PREVAIL
UnfavorabIe Circumstances Fac.
ing Livestock Men Is Basis
For Local Banks Conclusion;
Crop Conditions Excellent

Hay prices will not be so high this
fal land winter as they were last sea-
son, according to conclusions reached
by the Caldwell Commercial bank as
summarized in their regularly month
ly statement of crop and financial
conditions for June. Unfavorable
livestock conditions both for sheep and
cattle men, coupled with the poor
wool market, for the basis of this
prediction.
Haying operations are under full
Roadway, according to the report, which
continues:
The yield is generally heavy and of
the best quality. We predict that the
price will be considerably below that
of last year for the reason that cat
tlemen have not Jared we'll in market
ing for some time, while sheep men
made low lambing average; then
there is no market for wool and it is
probable that prices for lambs will
not be as good as received last year.
Also the range conditions and crop
prospects are reported good in dis
tant points from whence thousands of
head of cattle and sheep were shipped
into this section last fall to winter.
In referring back to our letter of a
year ago we note a marked difference,
especially as to temperature and rain

perature to date is much lower this
year, also there has beein much more
rainfall. The range isreportedasstill

will be one hundred per cent apple

this entire district will be practically

Livestock-There is practically no
movement in livestock other than
few cars of wethers and few carloads
of hog shipments to market.
Wool.-No sales of wool have been
reported and ony few clips have
shipped on consignment. We are in
formed some shipments have been
made on consignment without any ad-

CROWDS
TO SWAMP CITY
ON BIG FOURTH
Completed Arrangements Insure
Splendid Attractions In CaId-
we'll Monday; Parade With
Many Entries, ExcitesInterest

With the promise of real Fourth Of
July weather, big crowds are expected
in Caldwell Monday when this town
gives itself over to the observance of
Independence Day. According to Fl.
w. Droman, who has charge of the
arrangements, everything indicates
that the celebration will be practically
as planned.
More interest has been manifested
to date in the parade than in any
other single feature 1t is confidently
expected that this years parade will
excel anything that has ever been
staged in Caldwell on that order here
Practically all of Caldwell N,sf
Practically all of the Caldwell frater-
terna organizations will be represent
ed and many business concerns are
quietly preparing floats that are ex-
pected to make picking prize winners
a difficult task.
One of the features which is at
tracing more than it's just share of
interest, according to Mr.. Dorman, is
the comic section of the parade.
Prizes are offered for both the best
and the "bumest" makeups and it is
whispered about that many individuals
are preparing to pave the way to the
Charles Chaplin class by their show.
ing Monday. 1t is certain, at any
rate, that this section of the parade
will not be sighted.
May Get Flyer
Efforts are being made to land an
airplane for exhibition flying for the
day. Mr.. Droman is in Boise today
to make arrangements for the machine
| if possible.
The afternoon will be devoted to
dancing and to the games and athletic
sports. AS is customary, the fire de-
partment will put on thir annual water
carnival and fight, an attraction that
has always proved more than pleasing
to the crowds who were lucky enough
to be beyond the range of the streams

of flying water.
1t was originally planned that bus
mess houses would not close for the
entire day but would remain open at
least during the morning hours to
accommodate many people who chose
to shop that day. This idea did not
prove particularly populer, however,
and the most of the store windows are
already bearing placards indicating
that the stores will be closed through.
out the entire day.
Band in Charge
The Caldwell band will have active
charge of the days events. In the
past some few more active citizens
have been burdned with tn work of the
day to the extent that they have al
ways found themselves at the conclu
sion of independence Day worn out.
This year, the entire program of
events has been arranged to avoid
this, giving everyone an opportunity
to really enter the spirit of the thing
and enjoy the day.
Roy Black, state attorney general,
will be the speaker of the ray.
