I speaker and had his subject well in
hand. DIR. Chung is a native ko-

Following is an epitome Of DR..
Chung's address:
I'VE are living in a transitional
age, an age in which we must recog-
nize our obligations to our fellow
man. The other day, Senator Capper
of Kansas declared in the United
States senate that the United States
is getting to be nation of profiteers
. and robbers Our socialist friends
tell us that the people in this country
are centuries behind time. Our NOR
alists remind us that the American
people are all together too Materials
tic. What we need more than any
thing else in this country, they say, is
more golden rule and less rule of
gold. All these warnings and accusa-
tions are, perhaps, not without foun
dation. But after all has been said
and done, and taking everything into
consideration, / do not know of any
other country in the world which
loves justice and fair play more thar
the United States; I do not know OF
any other country in the world where
the workingmen have better lot than
that the laborers in America enjoy

Chapter VII

The history of newspapers in the
Snake river valley above Pocatello
the history Of ambitions not yet
fulfilled and not likely to be. Most
of us took up the work with more
ambition than judgment; more
vision than sense in the application
of the vision. Counties were large
and a number of publishers sought
| to fill their respective counties and
hold the business of their territory
to the exclusion of others or at least
with such leadership that their own
papers would be dominant.
Examples Of this kind were the
Idaho Register, which, for a genera
ton, was the principal paper in the
upper Snake river valley, and one
of the few papers in the state that
was a power in politics. Its editor,
W. E. Wheeler, sought to make his
paper so much desired that it would
have a statewide circulation among
the leading men of the state, and in
this he succeeded, but that did not
make profitable circulation, and it
did not make it any more profitable
to advertise in, because the local
merchants in Idaho Falls and other
towns nearby were not benefited at
all by the circulation Of the paper
among men scattered over the state
who took the paper for its political
editorials. therefore Mr.. Wheeler
sought to use his paper as do many
others, to do political service and re-
ceive in return, as much as he could
get of the patronage Of the state adj
ministrations in job printing when
his party was in power. He spent
his time and money freely to build
up a large job printing business
a thing that generally yields little
profit and only adds to a mans wor-
ries and deducts from his years. A
man operating newspaper has
enough to look after without having
the worry and risk attending a job
printing department, and when he
has the two, he generally suffers
some losses on each one that may be
traced to neglect while looking after
the other. Mr. Wheeler worked
hard all his life and saw the number
of newspapers and job shops con-
stantly increasing in what he used
to regard as his territory. AS new
counties were formed and new
county seats built up, large numbers
of his subscribers dropped his paper
to take the county seat paper in
their own county.
If some village became ambitious
to be represented regularly in the
Idaho Register, and he responded by
creating, say, a Shelley department
and sending reporter there to work
one or two days In a week to give
them good service, hoping it would
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1920-01-27

become, profitable after while, he saw
some ambitious printer buying lit
tie outfit on time and starting a
paper Of his own in Shelley or what
ever town it was that Wheeler was
trying to intrench himself in by CIV
ing them the best of it. AS soon as
the new paper started, those who
had been advertising in the Shelley
department of The Register would
switch their business to the new
Shelley paper and Mr.. Wheeler
would quit loser, besides losing rap
idly his Shelley subscribers who quit
him to take the new home paper.
The more a publisher tries in such
ways as that, the faster he loses
money. What the Idaho Register
tried to do has been tried by several
others, and the results were always
the same--the greater the effort by
the publisher the greater and quicker
came the loss Of business. As pub
fishers saw these demonstrations,
they evolved new plans for making
large successes, and some of these
will be explained in succeeding
chaptrs.
To be continued.

GRAIN vIoLAToRs PUNISHED

The presence Of teeth in, the grain
standards act which governs inter-
state traffic in grains for which Of
fetal standards have been fixed was
proved recently In Kansas City when
the first convictions for violation
of the statute were recorded The
criminal information was filed
under section 4 Of the act, which pro-
vides that grain which is sold by
grade shall not be shipped from one
state to another, except between nom
inspection points, unless 1t has been
inspected by q licensed inspector in
accordance with the law to deter
mine the grade Of the grain. The
defendant pleaded guilty.
The bureau Of markets, United
States department Of Agriculture,
which administers the grain stand
ards act, has. been conducting edu-
cational work to acquaint all pro-
ducers and handlers of grain with
the federal requirements, and hopes
that what has been accomplished in
this field will have the result of keep
ing violations at a minimum.

GAME WARDEN
REPORTS ON WORK
Shows Revenue Increase
of $48,O 900 for
Year 1919

A report Of the revenue Of the Of
flee OF the state game warden has
been submitted and shows a very
substantial increase in funds re-
ceived by that office. The sum of
$120,509.48 was received during the
year 1913 which shows an increase
of $48,200.96 over 1918. Otto M,
Jones, state game warden was in
Blackfoot the latter part Of the week
and gave some interesting details
concerning the work Of his depart
ment.
We are endeavoring to get the
sportsmen of the state to cooperate
with us to greater extent" said Mr..
Jones. Whenever sportsman sees
a violation Of the law or /. hears OF
such a case, he should without de-
lay, notify one of the wardens and
the case will be investigated i'm
mediately. Already we have had
tips on several violations from
sportsmen and in every case we have
followed it up Immediately and Sc
cured convictions"
In reference to the revenue of the
office Mr.. Jones stated that all
money from fines, licenses and other
sources was used for the mainten-
ance OF the bureau and known as the
fish and game fund. The state makes
no provision for the maintenance
or running expense of the bureau
and 1t is forced to rely upon his own
income. All money taken in by the
bureau is to be used for the sole pur-
pose Of meeting all expenses and for
the restocking of streams and the
propagation Of game.
The fund might be termed a
Sportsman fund or trust fund. The
state game warden acts as trustee
and, In this capacity, not only ac-
count for all moneys received, but
also expends in such manner as will.
in his judgment, protect the Ash
and game and promote the interest
Idaho. =
The report of Mr.. Jones shows
72,249 fish and game licenses issued
for the past year with 226 non resi-
dent licenses. The total licenses for
the year which include non resident
fish license, reshipping permits and
Others, is 1882 as against 52,598
for the year 1918. Fines collected
during 1919 amounted to $4,490.60
while for 1918 $3,025.05 was coll
lected
This. concludes Mr.. Jones, lis
indicative Of an efficient organiza-
ton and careful policing Of the
state, as there were probably Just as
many violations In 1918 and proceed
ing years. the only difference being
that In 1919 more violators were
apprehended."

Ruth Now Holder
Of Worlds Record
LIN Hitting Homers

When Babe Ruth yesterday knocked
his forty-sixth home run of the season
he broke all known worlds records for
circuit drives in a single season.
Ruth last season broke Buck Free
mans major league record of twenty
five home runs in a season by driving
out twenty-nine. This, however, was
not a. worlds record, for Perry Wer-
den, playing with Minneapolis, then in
the Western League, made forty-fve
fcur-base hits in 1896.
Werden was a first baseman and,
like Ruth, was unusually large physi-
cally. Most of his home runs were
made in the Minneapolis park, how
ever, which had very close right and
lcf! field fences. He seldom drove the
ball over the fence on foreign fields.
In 1901 Catcher Roth, of the Evans
vile Central League) club, made thir-
ty-six home runs.
Ruth this year has made at least one
home run in every ball park in the
American League, although he has, of
course, made more in New York than
in any other city.
New-York tribune., 1920-09-05

ter. After two strikes and three balls
had been called on him, Douglas foiled
Gavvy's desire to break up the ball
game by striking him out. Miller
stole second as Gavvy famed. Wright
stone was sent in to bat for Meadows,
and he smashed wicked grounder to
short. Bancroft made a neat stop and
cut down Miller at third. Grimes then
ran over toward the foul line and made
grounder and nailed him at first for
the third out.
Meusel singled to left in the ninth
inning with two down, but Fletcher
rolled one down to Kelly for the final
out.
The play-off Of the protested game
started in the first half of the seventh
inning with two out. Stengel on third
and Fletcher on second. The score
was to 0 in favor of the McGraw
men. Nehf retired the side on one
Bancroft, and ended the inning.
Hubbell Is. Hit Hard
Hubbell held the home players score
less in their half of the seventh, bus
they battered him severely in the
eighth and showed seven more runs
across. The former Giant twirler was
forced to retire under the fusilade, and
Belts replaced him.
Grimes opened the eighth with sim
gle through Wrightstone. Smith and
Nehf walked, filling the bases. Burns
Bancroft, Young, Frisch and Spencer
followed with safe hits, which gave the
Giants their seven superfuous tallies
Pol Perritt, who joined the New York
club in St. Louis two weeks ago, made
his first ApDearance on the mound at
the Polo Grounds this season when he
pitched the ninth inning. Pol retired
the first three batters in order.
The Giants will wind up their two
game series with the Phillies this after
noon. They will leave for Boston to.
morrow night to play the Braves six
games in three days and will then re.
turn to the home lot to open their final
stand against the Western clubs.
