FRENCH HAS MADE FINE REC
ORD IN CONGRESS.

This evening the people of Wallace
will have an opportunity to hear an
address by Hon. Burton L. French,
of Moscow representative from the
first congressional district Mr..
French is what might be called an
Idaho product, for he came to the then
territory in 1882 at the tender age of
7, attended the public schools and
graduated from the state university
at Moscow in 1901. He entered the
practice of law and in 1904 he was
elected to congress and has been reg
ularly reelected every two years since
that date with the exception of the
election of 1914, when he was a can
didate for United States senator. He
is now a candidate for reelection in
November and his return to congress
is a foregone conclusion, for he is one
man whom the people of Idaho de-
light to honor. In fact the people of
this district could not afford to dis
pense with his services in the ma
tional capital, for his long experience
in legislative procedure familiarity
with departmental affairs and wide
acquaintance with public men are
that come only with long
md faithful service, and can not be |
Implicated in a new member Mr.. |
french is an interesting speaker and |
should be greeted this evening by a
crowded house.

advantage Of Gooding. Two years ago
with the nonpartisan league making a
bitter fight against him and many
republicans not voting, Gooding came
within less than a thousand votes of
being elected This year the condi-
tons are much more favorable to the
republican candidate. While the non
partisan league is very strong in GER
tain localities, taking the state as
whole the membership of the organi-
zation is reported much less than it
was two years ago. Those democrats
who refused to support Nugent two
years ago on account of his ahiliation
with the league will either refrain
from voting for senator or will vote
for Gooding. Besides these advan-
tages through the weakness of his
opponent Gooding can safely count
on the full republican vote. Republi-
cans realize that control of the SEN
ate is at stake in the election and are
not going to permit personal disaf-
lection to stand in the way of doing |
their duty toward the party and the |

FAILED IN THE FIRST TEST OF
CITIZENSHIP.

Among She large number of aliens
who appeared before Judge r. n
Dunn for admission to citizenship last
week was one who. having taken out
his first papers declaring his inten-
tion to become citizen, had set up
the claim to exemption from the draft
during the war on the ground that he
was not a citizen and had thereby
escaped military service. For that
reason Judge Dunn denied his appl-
cation for citizenship with prejudice
against a renewal of his application
in the future In doing so the court
pointed out to him that having failed
in the first essential Of citizenship
while his application was pending, it
was evident that he did not possess
that spirit of loyalty and devotion to
this country and its institutions ne
cessary to make him a desirable citi-
zen. While millions of young men
were responding to the call of their
country and Offering their lives in it's
defense, he took advantage of his alien
allegiance to escape that service al
though having renounced that allie
glance and professed fealty to the
American flag 1t is evident that this
man in applying for citizenship had
no higher motive than to receive the
benefits and protection of this gov
eminent without assuming any of it's
responsibilities. and in refusing to
admit him Judge Dunn gave an i'm
pressive object lesson in sound Amer
canism which it is hoped is being
by all other courts in pass
ng upon applications of aliens for

TWO GROUPS.

(New York Sun and Herald)
In his speech in San Francisco on
Friday Candidate Cox denounced the
nomination of Senator Harding as
having been made by "a small group
of men" He named them: Lodge
Wadsworth. Watson Mccormick Har-
ding, SmoOt Brandegee, Harvey.
If the charge were true the group
would still be infinitely more accept
able to the taste of the American
voter than the smaller group which
after a frameup conference at French
Lick Springs put Jimmy over" at San
Francisco: Murphy. Taggart Nugent,
Brennan
Seven of the men in the upper
group are men who sit in the United
States senate, the choice of the people
Of great states. But the members of
the little group of four that nominal
ed Cox are not senators. They are
business men and their business is
politics, Cox politics.

STRAW BALLOTS SHOW HAIR
DING STRONG FAVORiTE.

The most significant straw vote that
has been taken as an indication of
public sentiment in the presidential
campaign is reported from two large
moving picture theaters, one in New
York and the other in Brooklyn. which
are conducted by the Associated
First National Pictures Inc. which
has theaters all over the country. It
is doubtful if any more representa-
tive assemblage could be found than
that at the average moving picture
show, for it embraces men and women
from every station and reflects every
phase of political thought Especial
ly is this vote in New York. which is
usually democratic and which our
bourbon friends have regarded as
bulwark of strength to the Cox can
didacy. But let the figures from these
two large New York and Brooklyn

NOTABLE ANNIVERSARY IN
HISTORY OF IDAHO.

Twenty-one years ago last Satur-
day September 25. the First Idaho
Volunteer infantry was mustered out
of the service at The Preside. San
Francisco We wonder how many OF
the boys of that splendid organiza-
ton. now scattered throughout our
country and in foreign lands recalled
the memorable event and in silent
reverie renewed the comradship that
has ever bound together men under
arms in the service of their country?
The magnitude OF the world war has
in great measure overshadowed the
Spanish war, and yet the conflict with
Spain was epoch making in Ameri-
can history and in the progress Of the
world. 1t forced recognition of the
United States as a world power ban
ished the tyranical rule of Spain from
the western hemisphere, released mil

our country in dealing with the for

pride felt by veterans of the Spanish |
war in having helped to accomplish /
these noble and unselfsh ends, and /
" hich added new glory and increas-

played in these splendid achieve

spanish war veterans are most proud
rather it is the fact that the war with
spain was waged and won by vOlun-

from the senatorial race on the non
partisan league ticket in order to
transfer his following to the support
of the democratic candidate for SEN

democratic state convention. the pur-
pose being, it is believed. to force the
democrats to nominate two of the
nonpartisan candidates. Whitaker and

having done so, Whitaker and Bates

IDAHO CHICKEN FEED.
Cayuses of No Commercial Value, But
Chickens Are.

OblCNcHS ARE
Cayuses are being shipped out OF
the Indian reservations of Idaho to
feed California chickens, according to
George Bisbee, livestock agent for the
Union Pacific system, who was in
Butte recently.
THE Indian cayuses are of no COM
mercial value. The California chick
ems are" said Mr.. Bisbee. "A few
days ago the first shipment of these
ponies, 500 in a bunch, were sent out
.of POcatello for California. There are
about 5000 such cayuses on the Fort
Hall Indian reservation alone which
will be shipped this fall.
This is a part of the policy of the
government to save the range. These
horses eat more grass than they are
worth and they are of more value as
chicken feed in California than on the
Idaho hills. They will be killed.
ground up for meal and then fed to
the chickens"
Mr. Bisbee said that he was of the
opinion that the same breed of worth
less cayuses in Montana would be
rounded up and shipped out The In
dams on the reservations are paid a
Fee for running in the ponies.

crossed eyes or a bad breath or ig-
norant spelling or the eating of raw
pork Any one of these would have
plenty of votaries in our so-called
society, if a smart-set movement were
to set the pace for them. The differ
ence is that jazz music can smite the
ear and jar the nerves, in an Offend
ing way. of almost any man or wo-
man who has common sense plus an
average appreciation of harmony in
tone.
For a little while. Paris was ram
PANTY for jazz orchestral rubbish;
that was during the war-stress period
and directly thereafter when, ac-
cording to all accounts. Paris was
hysterical in manners and morals and
habits. The most recent stories are
that the French people are sick and
tired of the stuff. And it is also in
the current talk that it will be no
more fashionable in this country for
the cafe pianist to pound the keys
with his heels or for the fiddler to as
sumo that he is driving an oil we'll
drill or for the man with flute to
assume that he is filing a saw.
Jazz is as vulgar a thing as ever
afflicted an American community 1t
is a cheap imitation of the kind of
music they probably have in Hades.
and it is devoutly to be hoped that the
day is not distant when in Montana
the only audience to applaud jazz or
confess to a relish for it will be found
in the lunatic ward at Warm Springs.

COUNTRY BOYS DEFECTS AND
THE REMEDY.

S This the day of the uplift The
t morals of mankind are no longer the
subject of individual regulation. Those
who dwell in the higher realms OF
2 personal purity have set about to raise
the unfortunates who have succumb-
, ed to evil habits or degrading influ-
; ences first by moral suasion and fin
ally by the force of laws designed to
keep them within the straight and
narrow path Nor is this uplifting
movement limited to the moral field of
effort, for the physical wellbeing of
the masses has also become a matter
of grave concern to those active in al
truistic effort. It is not in a spirit OF
opposition that we refer to these eff
forts, but rather for the purpose Of
directing attention to the impractical
bility of some of them in the hope
that the energy now wasted may be
directed to the accomplishment of
tangible results. 1t now appears that
the country boy, the raw material
from which has been made most Of
the presidents, cabinet officers, sena-
tors, captains of industry, mining
magnates merchant princes and
whatnot is the subject of grave con-
Germ on the part of the National Coun-
try Life conference. The committee
on recreation and rural health, APP
pointed by this organization, has made
the discovery that the farm boy is de-
ficient in "neuromuscular coordina-
ton" and proposes to rescue him from
the disadvantage to which he has /
long been subjected through this |
heavy handicap If we get the COM |
nlittee correctly. the country boy has /
no difficulty in using the major mus
cles but through failure of the nerve |
centers the subordinate muscles are
not sufficiently responsive. As a re-
suit the rural youth is slow at play,
and his whole body is less plant and
active than that of his city cousin
To remedy this ruinous effect, the
committee recommends games that
bring the entire body into action and
which require the expression of the
rhythmic instinct" further suggesting
that group games, organized athlet- l
les and folk dancing" as remedies. To
these apparently serious suggestions,
the New York Sun and Herald re-
spends with these pertinent though ,
facetious questions: /
But who is going to accomplish J
this reform? When the young I
farmland has wound up a days
work in the hay field by milking
eight cows and making things
tidy for the night, who shall lure =
him or compel him to join in o
Swedish gymnastics to timber his C
accessory muscles? Who shall
say, as the boy limps in to bed, {
that jolly spree of folk dancing c
would make a new man of him? l.
Who is to hold him up on the p
way from the barn to the house II
and ask him why he is letting his V
rhythmic instinct go to seed? k
Maybe there is a lot in this dis 90

OTTO HAERING HAS UNIQUE
BAROMETER WHICH SERVES
HIM WELL ON RAINY DAYS

Weather Bureaus and scientific
barometers are great things in their
way and serve a very useful purpose,
thinks Otto Haering, President of
the Alaska Beverage Company, but
hanging up in the engine room of
the bottling works is an ingenious
barometer which he says has never
failed him as weather prophet.
1t is nothing more or less than an
iron ammonia receiver, perhaps two
feet long and six inches in diameter.
Il have always noticed said
Mr. Haering this morning, that
when the moisture starts to form
on the outside of this receiver | can
always count on rain. And when
the surface begins to show white
look for freezing weather 1t is the
most reliable barometer | know, and
