position our party has taken on the
national ISSUE" said John F. Simms

evasion or straddle," he continued.
The speaker paid tribute to Gov
ernor Cox, presidential candidate,
and Franklin D. Roosevelt, vice

constructive team, ready and will

masses, and unafraid to defy the
classes who seek to prey upon the
nation" he said.
"The administration Of state af-
fairs for the past two years has
been a dismal failure" he said.

SUMMARY OF
IDAHO WEATHER

Temperatures were decidedly above
normal during most OF the week
thruout the state. There was consid-
cradle clondiness at times and light
10 moderate showers occurred in
many localities, but the amount of
sunshine was adequate. Soil condi-
lions are generally very good so far
as moisture Is concerned. The irri-
cation season is about over and I'm
most OF the bitches the water has
been cut heavily.
Weather conditions we're Mostly
quite favorable for maturing crops
and In the main they were favorable
for farm work. although in some 10
calities operations were Interrupted
by rain; in fact. wet. cloudy weather
was prolonged TO such an extent In
some localities OF the Panhandle.
particularly I'm Latah county, that
serious damage to grain and field
peas was threatened. But In most
localities the rain was welcomed be
cause OF it's beneficial effect on pas
lures, meadows and ranges. Fall
pastures and ranges are generally in
excellent condition and there is a
promise OF ample fall forage All

alike. completely QUE of order; with the cellars of
private houses and ofhJs buildings converted into
cesspoolsi with the garbage and refuse of all kinds
rotting IN the public streets and the backwards, with
wood the only fuel. and that only obtafnable by the
destruction of frame houses and even Of the wooden
barges to transport the fuel to the city market-we
should have a faint though incomplete idea Of the
condition in Petrograd today as a result Of BoIshevist
rule.
The only remedy which Lenine and his dietators
can suggest is that the oppressed and dying people
of Petrograd shall perform the impossibility Of re-
moving this filth Themselves. Before the Lenine re
CINE, the population of the capital OF Russia was
upwards Of 2.OO0. 600. and 1t is now one fourth OF
that number. Even the BoIslsevists confess to "A
figure below a million. The hospitals are in a con
dttion as bad as that Of the private houses. There
is no provision for the commonest decencies. Neces-
sary medicines are not available. There ts one doc
tor 80 two hundred patients. and foul diseases of Il
kind which were thought extinct are rampant. In
fictitious cases are put in with the rest The con
dition Of the sick. in the matter of bedding and baths
alone, could not be told outside the columns of a medi-
cal journal.
This is applied socialism. worked out to its logical
result With capital destroyed with individual eE-
fort deprived OF an incentive. with the machinery OF
production administered by the most ignorant of the
population. Petrograd is becoming a city OF the dead.
The only sanitary method possible now IS such a
FIRE as that in London in 1866 which burned out the
last remnants of the great plague
Excuses for the failure Of the Lenine experiment
may sttn have some VALIDITY in unbalanced minds.
The best civilization can do now is TO segregate this
appalling evil IN western Russia, so that the deyasta-
ting curse may not spread transportation IS des-
troyed. There is no employment but the famine hunt
for food. The worst excuses of war have produced
no such hell as this. Every advocate Of Bolshevism
should be forthwith sent to Russia and forced to live
under conditions he appears to desire.
These are the condiIons-but read them for
yourself in the uncompromising columns of the Sat
urday Evening Post. You will need "a STOUT heart
and a strong stomach.

MANNING II NAVY.

Apropos Of the campaign upon which the navy re-
PAL tment has entered TO obtain a large number OF high
class recruits in a short time. an officer says the appeal
must be made not ouly to the young men of the nation,
but to their parents. The first task will be 10 remove
popular misconceptions concerning service on the seas
And wisely the department has determined to make
considerable use OF newspaper advertising space as a
medium for reaching the American people.
There are now about 800 naval recruiting stations
Ia the United States. manned by 1855 officers and men,
all of whom have had years OF experience at sea and
possess exceptional records for efficiency. These agents
for recruiting have been amazed at some OF the anti
ouated. ignorant notions that are still held regarding
the navy, Some persons imagine that the ancient dis
ciplinary methods are still in vogue. The fact is. an
officer who today should venture TO raise his hand
against a sailor would not have long 70 wait before be-
ing called before a c~ourt-martial.
A training In some useful trade and a general edu.
cation in neglected branches are the inducements held
out to naval recruits today, in addition to the oppor-
tuntty to see the world at Uncle Sam expense and gain
tn health and strength through an exceptionally whole
some occupation surrounded by hygienic conditions.
Whatever may have been the case many years ago, the
average sailor is now a sturdy. ambitious young fellow
seeking to make the most of himself mentally as well
as physically. For such the navy career contains val
liable possibilities.
