M. CLEMENCEAU
HAS "SILENCE
CURE" IN CASTLE

Paris, Sept. Shy Associated
Press Former Premier Clemenceau
took his recent silence cure" in a
medieval castle perched 1900 feet
above the blue waters of the Medi-
terranean at Olivese, on the island OF
Corsica.
Nicholas Pietri, the owner of the
castle, has been a lifelong friend
and newspaper associate of Clemen-
ceau. Pietri is as deaf as the pro-
verbal post.
Il have travelled a lot since the
armistice," the former Premier is re-
ported to have said, but in India
Egypt, the Soudan, everywhere
have been, have had to talk too
much. Now what l want is silence.
Am I sure to get that with Pietri.
He is so deaf that l won't be tempted
to volunteer any small talk to him
and he is very tactful in not asking
questions. realizing that the effort
required for me to answer him is toe
much for my old lungs"
Despite Clemenceaus plea of weak
ness and his age-81 years-he looks
as sturdy as the oaks surrounding
sthe castle.
| There are those who insist that the
Tiger intends to re-enter the politi
cal arena and that in the peace and
quietness of the little island which
gave birth to Napoleon, he has been
preparing for a re-entry into public
life that may be almost as startling
as that of the little Corporal.

Navy Department has received an Of
fetal communication from Com
mander q. a. Bisset. experimenting
Constructor L. s. y. Lake Torpedo
Boat Company, bridgeport. Conn,
suggesting the establishment OF q
corps of osteopathic physicians in tho
navy. This brings to an official
status the question which has been
brewing in both the army and the
navy ever since the beginning Of the
war.
Commander Bisset's communica-
ton says that the result of the estab-
lishment of a corps Of osteopaths
would be to increase the efficiency of
the navy by keeping those in the
service in better physical condition.
that is, in a better state of health.
"a healthy man is of much more use
to the service than a sick man even
if the sickness amounts to only a
slight indisposition," writes Com

lowered SIX feet the reclamation prob
lem Of river overflow lands Is accom-
plished.
But the Kootenai Narrows is in
Canada. II Is not possible to assess
Idaho land for work to be done in
Canada even il the Canadian laws
would permit The owners of overflow
land In Canada could not undertake
the expense of reclamation without the
assistance of their American friends
Hence the need of an international
commission delegated with powers
from their respective governments.
All efforts should now be concen-
trated towards impressing our Idaho
delegation at Washington with the
need of doing something for Boundary
county where some 10000 acres of the
richest land of the world is waiting to
be reclaimed. All we ask now is per-
mission, the legalizing, of coopera-
tive work with Canada. Later on we
may ask the expert assistance of our
drainage engineers and possibly the
assistance OF our national financiers in
regard to floating drainage district
bonds.
We must keep continually nagging
at our congressman and senators; we
must not let them forget for a moment
that we have proposition worthy of
their strict attention and that we ex-
pect them to get results. Just now we
want our government to appoint com
mission to confer and act with a SINH
lar commission from the Canadian gov
eminent on the Kootenai valley recla-
nation project. This does not seem a
huge task but it will be accomplished
all the sooner if all interested in this
drainage proposition will write Con-
gresham French and Senators Borah
and Gooding, urging them to get quick
action in the proper departments.
We are on the right track. Actual
drainage of the Kootenai Flats can be
accomplished within the next few
years. The progress of the last two
months is heartening and should spur
us to greater, more enthusiastic effort
and as success seems to crown our
efforts the doubters will forget their
misgivings and rally to give sincere
and wholehearted support to a project
that means more than any other other
in financial way to the extreme
northern part of Idaho.

SUCCESS is IN SIGHT

The work of men interested in the
drainage of the Kootenai valley is
bearing fruit as is evidenced by the
fact that the Canadian and American
government reclamation heads have
been in conference and have made
recommendations that should lead to
definite reclamation program
fathered by the two greatest govern
ments of the western hemisphere.
II has been long, tedious fight to
interest the proper officials of the Ca
madam and American governments in
the need of an international commits
sion empowered to handle the Kootenai
valley drainage project. 1t seems now
assured that hopes in this regard will
soon be realized. For years and years
the men most interested in the drain
age of Kootenai valley lands have
studied the problem from every angle
A great deal of money and time has
been expended and everyone is unani-
nous in the conclusion that the solu-
ton is the widening of the Kootenai
Narrows. The best engineering talent
of the United States has advised this
feasible and has given assurance that
the widening of the Kootenai Narrows
would result in the lowering of the
Kootenai river some six feet Any
time the level of the Kootenai river is

THE NEW STATE

Southern Idaho has prospect of be-
coming defendant in divorce pro-
ceedings and the indictment has been
published North Idaho tired of the
union, would set up housekeeping for
herself and promises if given her free
dom not to ask for alimony but prom
ises to become self supporting.
The latter statement is taking in a
lot of territory for North Idaho; the
panhandle of the state while rich in
territory is circumscribed In area
while south Idaho, broad in scope and
territory and which has the population
has been good husband, father and
provider for north Idaho; in other
words, we of the southern part OF the
state have the population and pay the
big part of the taxes while north Ida
no using sometimes better judgment
than we of the south show evidence of
gets the appropriations.
1t is just as we'll for north Idaho to
get the divorce if she can for the con-
ditions between the north and the
south are so different that there can
never be mutual understanding. The
shape of the state is odd and the north
is divided from the south by natural
barriers that are almost impossible to
overcome or at least not without great
expense. The conditions socially, DO
litically, commercially and geographic
ally are very different and the inter-
ests are not in common. North Idaho
knows little of agriculture and less of
irrigation and is not interested in our
problems while we of the south know
little of timber interests, the reclama-
ton of cutover lands and mining with
the result that each session of the leg
is lature there is a difficulty of under
standing the problems which are not
mutual. Idaho institutions in north
Idaho are too far away from the popu-
lous south Idaho to be of much prac-
teal benefit and for that reason it is
better to let the proceedings proceed
and divide the state so that each may
have the opportunity to solve their
own difficulties.
More than our consent is necessary
however, and 1t is doubtful if the east,
through congress, will consent to the
creation of the new state which would
give the west two additional represen-
tatives in the United States senate
The west, already strong in that body
has created jealous fear in the minds
of eastern states that the west might
probably come into its own with msre
representation, so that is the reason
that Idaho will probably not have
divorce proceeding Idaho Falls Times
