THE IDAHO REPUBLICAN

Mr.. and Mrs. W. c. Thompson. They
donate their services, The Republic
can office donates the peonies, and
the committee is going to need the
donation of some pots and vases to
put them in. Mrs. Trego donates
her car to be used as the flower char
lot for the week, and there will prob
ably be a touch of ferns from the
lava-beds and vines and climbers
from the banks of the sterams in
in the plains and canyons.
Mr.. Trego is something of a nut
on flowers and decorations, and he
has said all along that when people
ray their good money for season
tickets, they ought to get their mon
ey's worth when they take their first
look at the stage. He wants people
to go in and get themselves planted
on the old hard seats, and then take
one good look at the decorated stage
and forget that they have seats at
all and say, 1--WE have already had
our moneys worth even if they can
eel the whole program right now"
Whether people get a real treat
in decorations will depend on what
the weather clerk sends in the way
of hot days to bring out the bloom,
and on the talent and activity of
the committee, the flower chariot
and the pots, vases and other con-
tainers loaned by the obliging ma
tives. The chautauqua talent wend-
ing their way up thru the states in
to Canada, are going to be telling
audiences in other cities of the bow
er of beauty made for them at Black
foot, Idaho, using a thousand home
grown beauties as the basis of the
great bower of beauty.

Blackfoot Beauty
To the Front

By some freak of nature the pc,
ony blooms have been held back this
year to correspond with the lateness
| of the chautauqua engagement at
Blackfoot The bloom and the chau-
tauqua usually come early in June,
but this year the chautauqua is
from June 22nd to the 2Sth, and the
peOny bloom seems to be making the
same dates for their appearance in
the Smith nursery.
One year ago the editor OF The
Republican was about half mad at
the town on account of the way .peo-
pie neglected to buy season tickets
but paid admissions at the gates, and
left the guarantors to lose because
gate receipts did not apply at all on
the sum which the quarantors had
to pay to the chautauqua manage
ment. The editor said that people
had got the notion that few of the
business men owed the town a chau-
tauqua annually, and that the people
could then turn it down or attend as
they chose, and leave the guarantOrs
holding the sack. He said that if
the town wanted a chautauqua it
had better get one and pay for it
when it wanted it, and that the bust
ness men ought to lie down and leave
other people to handle such things
until they learned to appreciate the
value of the high class entertain
NETS at the low price. But in con-
nection with all that, he said that if
the people woke up and contracted
for chautauqua, The Idaho Repub-
lican would decorate the stage with
a thousand peonies from the Smith
nursery if it was peony season.
The people engaged the chautau-
qua, The Republican placed its or
der for the peonies, and now it looks
as if the actors and the peonies
would arrive at the same time. Of
course there will be other things
besides peonies in the decorations,
the same as there is sugar and cream
to go with strawberry feast, but
peonies form the basis of the decora-
tions and The Republican office has
the assistance of committee of
three young women to act the part
of decorating engineers. Miss Her
ma Albertson is chairman of the
committee, and her assistants are

might have gone to an equally big

They sowed selfishness, and they
reaped an awful crop of IL. But that
is not the end of it. Borah will re-
sent the action of his friend johnson
in keeping him from making the
nominating speech and a breech is
likely to open between them. john
son will naturally feel self con-
demned, and Borah will naturally
feel that it served Johnson right, and
each will go his way less interested
in the great work they sought to do.
Thus does selfishness scatter it's own
forces and pass the power to others,

MERCHANT DISCUSSES
ENTRANCE TO TOWN

This paper has had considerable
to say about the advantage to town
of having wide, straight entrances
from. important roads, and when we
asked F. E. Seeger. for a statement
of The reasons why he had been so
active in getting South Broadway
opened and North Broadway proyid-
ed with an easy outlet, he replied
substantially as follows:
cat the time the fair grounds We're
sold to the farm bureau l foresaw
that the town and Broadway would
need roadway thru to the main
highway and l secured options on
property that would have to be cut
into 1t will be wonderful conven-
fence when upper Main street is be-
ing paved to have this other high
way.
q consider it a great advantage
even with Main street paved, an ad-
advantage to the whole town. The
farm bureau will be able to" have
headquarters building across this
road outside the grounds proper, and
by swinging the road around the
race track any loss on that score
has been avoided. Property in the
northwest section Of town will ad
vance in value and the business abil-
ity of the town VIII also be in

CHICKENS COME HOME
TO ROOST

In the national Republican con-
vention at Chicago last week there
was a good illustration of the fact
that men SOW what they reap, and
that the bread they cast upon the
waters comes back to them in kind.
The friends of Hiram Johnson
hoped to make him the nominee for
the presidency, and of course wanted
his name presented to the convention
in way to arouse the admiration
of men and so far as possible, to
sway the minds of those who had
been against him or in doubt. The
natural one to do that was his old.
time running mate and co-worker,
w. E. Borah, also western man.
But the Johnson men reasoned
that because of Borah's great ability
and personality he might so affect
the convention that there would be
a stampede of mems minds to Borah
and that he might so outshine their
favorite that the nomination would
go to him and leave Johnson out. So
they picked man of less courage
and ability, to make the nominating
speech for Johnson, and very much
ing things that were offensive to
certain elements whom it was their
wish to win over to their side and
whose votes they had to have if they
succeeded. Wheeler talked on and
on, every now and then saying some
thing that won frowns from dele
gates he sought to win, and in the
voting there was not enough sup
port to nominate their man. In
each succeeding ballot, there were
fewer votes for him, because some of
the delegates, having voted for him
once or twice, under doubt, felt that
that they were now justified in break
ing away, so Johnson went down in
defeat and B rah did not have the
chance to go before the convention
and play up his fayorite nor show
his own great ability to analyze the
situation confronting the nation.
II men OF the JOnnSOn-BOran
faith are sore over the fact that
neither one of them got nominated,
they have only to thank themselves
and their jealousy and selfishness.
They sought to keep one big leader
from coming to the front, and in that
effort they blocked the path for their
own desires. Had they been big and
broad, and chosen Borah for the nom

ALARMED AT DREAD DISEASE
Spread Of Sleeping Sickness Threatens
Entire World, According TO Seien-
lists Of Prominence.

Sleeping sickness, called eneephalitis
lethargiea By the doctors. seems now
TO have become a domestic evil. says
the Medical Record New York;, In
quoting a study OF this formerly rare
disease by Doctor Lhermitte In
French medical journal.
II appears that the disease is cpl
demIc all over the world and that II
manifests itself in many forms. the
only symptom possessed by all in com
mon being that OF deep and prolonged
sleep.
In true encephalitis lethargica there
are four cardinal symptOms-ocular
paralyses, hypersOmnia, fever and the
general state. The ocular paralyses
may be absent at the outbreak OF the
disease. but once present they are
Characteristic. So. too, is the type Of
hypersomnia. II is a narcOlepsy. but
the subject does not arouse quickly.

goes by the name and In which the
seizures may be only momentary. How
ever. the permanent sleep may be pre-
ceded by narcoleptic crises.
Doctor Lhermitte notes apprehension
OF the muscles and a state suggesting
catalepsy. Tremors are often mani
fest; the temperature goes TO 104 de-
grees +. He says a Wassermann test
and examination Of the spinal fluid
should always be made.

compensatIon for Dark DAYS.

There are not many happinesscs
so complete as those that are
snatched under the shadow of the
sword" Some of life's brightest
blossoms bloom along its hardest
ways, and looking back on days OF
poverty, sickness and hardship we
often see the choicest treasures OF
love and loyalty that we have even
known. Anyone may share our joys
with us, but the one who shares our
trials comes close in a friendship that
will never be forgotten. An outsider

USE FOR TANKS" IN PEACE
French Have Put FriehtfuI War Ma
chimes TO a Variety of Highly
Useful Occupations.

The French appear to be ahead or
us In finding a use for tanks in peace
times. A considerable number of French
tanks which are comparatively small
sized are now employed for transport
purposes about the yards of large In
dustrial works; others are used as
farm tractors, while the larger tanks
are replacing horses for traction along
the wide paths of the great French
canals.
The latest and perhaps the most re-
markable employment which has been
found for these machines is in connec-
ton with mountain climbing for tour
lists. For this purpose the armor, and
of course all the fighting apparatus of
the tank are removed and a carriage
or superstructure capable of carrying
from ten to twenty passengers added.
The seating Is either arranged lOngitu-
dinally or crosswise. Very steep grades
can be taken. while the machines cas-
lily cross small streams and make their
way through brushwOod, tall grass and
over the toughest roads.

REPORTED CONDITIONS
WORLDS WHEAT CROF

Americas winter wheat yield will
be affected by large decline in the
area seeded. according to a forecast
in the bulletin of the International
Institute of Agriculture issued Satur-
day. II is said the season is unfav-
orable and this may add TO the win
ter wheat shortage. but the bulletin
adds:
1T should be Observed that. TAX
ing into account the current rate of
export and the probable quantities
that will be shipped before the end
of this season. there should remain
such considerable stock of old
wheat as TO provide in conjunction
with the reduced new crop supply
equal to the year ending June 80.
1920"
In other countries of the Northern
hemisphere the condition of winter
cereal crops is normal, except in Po-
land. where the outlook. especially
for rye. is not promising. In Italy,
too. there has been a prolonged
drouth which may reduce the crop
materially Reports received from
Algeria state the damage from dry
weather there has been serious.
Argentinas maize crop is estimat-
ed at 80 per cent. above the average
md this may be an important fac
or during the coming season, quo
atoms for ocean freight rates have
changed irregularly. but. on the
whole, a decline is found. Thus the
lverage cost of sea transportation
now compares favorably with any
period since 1915. The rates of ex-
,hange are also favoring important
countries, especially those which have
in the past been most seriously af-
iected.

ON THE RIGHT TRAIL

As a result of government
measures that have made it pos
sible for popular sentiment re-
garding the high cost of living
to register itself in reform eff
forts as we'll as in vigorous pro
tests, prices have been reduced
in a number of places throughout
the country. Even though the
overall campaign may carry with
it the half-comic spirit that
Americans so often reveal III
masking real feeling. it has made
thousands think and has given
encouragement TO the wearing OF
old clothes. Agitation that is &C
companied by object lessons
usually makes a strong appeal
and certainly all who read the
signs of the times must realize
that the national patience has
reached its limitations
Since prices began to rise, the
Department of Justice has hunt
ed the prodteers and has sought
to thwart all who would grossly
traffic in commodities made
scarce by the scourage OF recent
war. Results are OF necessity
slow, bur there is now evidence
that the persistent work of
months is to result in widespread
benefits.
The lessons of the war teach
us that wealth has become an
exceedingly uncertain and elus-
i've possession. In the past,
much was heard about the
nouveau richie class, but now
there is a large nouveau pauvre
class in the United States as well
as in Europe. Long settled in
comes have shrunk and taxes

grown of different kinds for different
purposes Certain varieties are raised
for cooking and others for starch
making and distilling. Over there
they have a so-called "stock potato"
which is not used for human food at
all. 1t is very large and coarse of tex
