WHAT OF THE FUTURE?

Today American products, ex-
orbitant in price, are in great de
mand in Europe. This is so be-
cause Europe, devastated by war,
cannot make these articles herself
fast enough to supply the immedi-
ate demand.
But in time Europe will be max
ing sufficient for home consump-
ton and will have an additional
output for export.
In America wages are exceed
ingly high, as are also the raw ma
terials. The cost of manufacture
is accordingly Sin the sky" In
Europe labor is much cheaper and
articles can be marketed at a cost
below that for which we can pro-
duce them. In time, when Europe
has recovered, America will be re-
CURED to compete with those
countries for world trade-Ameri-
ca with its high cost Of manufac-
ture against Europe with its low
cost. That is the condition which
the present insane price initiation
will bring about. The misfortune
of others has made us fortunate
today-has enriched us beyond
the dreams of avarice. But to-
morrow it may be the reverse. 1t
is worth our serious consideration
when we hear people talk of pric-
es going even still higher.

INCO M r
STTNGER.

The supreme court of the Unit
ed States has decided that income
from stocks is exempt from IN
come taxation. The fortunes OF
our rich men are principally IN
vested in stocks. They carry no
great amount Of actual cash IN
banks. These rich men with their
billions of dollars worth OF
stocks will pay no income tax on
the enormous revenues from these
stocks. They can, if they choose,
invest all Of their wealth in stocks
thereby deriving their entire IN
comes from them, and escape the
payment of any income tax at all.
It cdsts in the neighborhood OF
one billion dollars year to ruiz
the government, and much OF that
amount must be raised by taxa
ton. If the rich man is not to
pay his just proportion OF the IN
come tax, WHO MUST PAY 1T
FOR HIM?
We have no editorial comment
to make on the ruling of the SUI
preme court. That tribunal is
presumed to be the fountain head
of justice, and the law is undoubt-
eddy as they have interpreted 1t.
But the fact that the rich man is
to pay no income tax on his enor-
nous holdings Of stocks causes
one to wonder if the poor man is
to be required to "dig deeper and
cough harder. = He has cough
ed much as it is.

Send Blackfoot
Busher to Pitts
burg for Try-out

"Ock" Anderson, second string
pitcher for Blackfoot in the early
season, has been sent from Jerome
with twenty-five other western
finds" to Pittsburg for a try-out in
big league play this fall, according
to information gathered by A. E.
Heasley on a recent trip to Jerome.
Mr.. Heasley travelled from jerome
to Pocatello with Anderson and an
other player, Will Gleason, both en-
route for eastern opportunity.
Anderson, it will be remembered,
went to Jerome at the time of the
big Dust up" in Blackfoot baseball
this summer. 1t was rumored that
Frazer of Jerome bought "Ock" for
$500. Frazer, who has baseball con-
nections with Pittsburg, picked An
derson as a likely candidate for big
league ball and had him called east,
expenses paid, for try-out. If he
does not make a place there his ex-
penses will be paid back to Black
foot, Mr. Heasley said.

RECLAIMING THE COYOTE

Some Idaho men engaged in the
study of wild life and following the
idea Of making use of some of our
wild animals that it has been GUS
tomary to destroy as nuisances, are
reported to have taken a ten-year
lease on all the Wood Livestock
company ranches in Idaho for hunt
ing and trapping, and they propose
to cultivate and harvest some of
the so-called predatory animals af-
ter the manner described in articles
published in this paper some time
ago.
They are organizing a company
and starting what they call fur
farm at Sand Lake, near Hamer, and
are expecting to pick up some good
furs that have been going to waste
or that have heretofore been har-
vested promiscuously at the wrong
times. of the year to be very good.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING

The council spent considera BILE
time Tuesday evening on an ordi-
nance providing for the payment Of
licenses by shows and carnivals. The
rates were made very high Ito cor,
respond with the high freight the
purpose with some of the council
being to bar them out, and with
others there was plea for making
the rates reasonable so they could
come in If they want to. Some of
them said the rate fixed for the mer-
ry-goround was prohibitive, and they
wanted the Riddles to have a chance
to ride on them without having to
journey to other towns.
In regard to the concessiOnists
that usually 60 along with carnivals
there had been a moral question
raised against them, or against the
physical condition of some of the
young people Of the town after the
carnivals had gone, and 1t was re-
marked there are two sides to those
matters. People who do not want
to 60 to carnivals do not 60 Just be-
cause there is one in town. and those
who do, will 60 to other towns where
carnivals are, SO it became somewhat
a question Of whether to build q wall
around the town and keep people
from mixing with the outside world
In the effort to keep them good.
Some thought the pool halls ought
to have to pay a stin license and the
bowling alleys be free, because the
one lis a more moral place than the
other and devoted more to physical
culture than the other. Some
thought that II pool halls are to be
taxed, then all the stores and Offices
ought to be taxed too. A dray man
takes great deal of physical exer-.
else and yet he pays a license to the
town. The task of adjusting the
rates was like trying to equalize
taxes, and the council worked on It
awhile and it is printed in this is

NO LICENSE-PAID FINE

Frank Weber was fined $40 and
costs for operating a car with 1919
license on it, and the license ap-
peared to have been transferred
from truck without authority and
record at the assessors office.
He offered the excuse that when
he thought of applying for Ii
cense he was unable to find any
number for identity on the engine,
and therefore could not furnish COM
plete information, but the court did
not consider that sufficient reason
for withholding the license money
from the county for half year and
going with a last years license.
