Adjutant La Verne Collier of the
Idaho department announced this
morning that every effort would be
made by the state organization to
aid in securing the passage of the
bill. Many men favored the PROPOSE
ton of the government donating
land TO the returned solder, but the
consensus of opinion in Pocatello is
that the money consideration at this
time would be more appreciated
than any other form of beneficial leg
islation. Some favor giving the SOL
der choice between the land prop
osition and the $50 bonus. Present
plans of the legislative committee of
the legion are to secure a $50 bon
us for each month of service per-
formed during the war
In talking with ex-service men
working for the railroad, the great
er majority of these favor the bonus
system over all other proposed ben
eficial legislation. They state that
in comparison with the favorable
legislation passed by ex-service men
by Canada, Australia and other of
the Allied countries, the proposed
$50 month bonus is far from ex-
cessive. Considering the fact that
the men who served in the war must
in most cases figure that the time
spent in the service was a loss, that
is from financial point of view,
and that in reality they are practic-
ally two years behind the men who
were not in the service, the bonus
proposition is an excellent one and
would be of material aid In speak
ing with the citizens generally the
majority are highly in favor of the
proposition. They feel that the men
are highly entitled to the consider
alton, both from the standpoint. of
giving them a better chance to get
on their feet and also as slight ap-
probation for the fine work they ac-
complished.-Pocatello Tribune. =

Chronic Constipation

There are people who never have a
movement of the bowls unless it is
produced by a cathartic. Most of
them have brought that condition up
on themselves by the use of mineral
waters and strong cathiartcs lat
take too much water out of the sys-
tenn and aggravate the disease they
are meant to relieve. A mild laxa-
tive tonic like Chamberlain's Tablets

their use is not so likely to be fol-
lowed by constipation.
