dislike to question the motive that

Importance, but it is very difficult to
believe that a majority in either

then they should make the measure
applicable to every survivor of every
other war in which the nation has en-
gagged Why the soldiers of the
world war should be favored in this
respect as against those of all other
wars is a question that remains to
be answered All other veterans

BUDGET BILL AND GOVERNMENT

The one big question that over

which they are looking with conf

of relief from the burden of taxation

but it is clearly evident that the
question of enforcing government

the mere passage of the budget bill
accomplishes nothing unless congress

Editor of Mining Truth Makes Ex-
tended Tour of the State.
Sidney Norman, of Spokane. editor
of Northwest Mining Truth. reached
Wallace Tuesday morning upon his
return from an extended tour of the
mining and oil fields of Montana and
proceeded to his home In the after
noon. He stopped at Butte both go
ing and coming and his description Of
the conditions in the great copper
camp was anything but cheering. His
impressions of the Butte situation
and his observations in the oil fields
will doubtless find expression in his
publication. Mr. Norman travelled by
automobile, a fact that necessarily
caused him to give close attention to
the roads. After about three weeks
experience in Montana, he said it was
a joyous relief when he crossed the
divide into Idaho and struck the
roads of ShoshOne county, which he
said were like a paved boulevard
with those over which he
had just passed Mr.. Norman was
accompanied by George Bohannon.

THE NATIONS DEBT TO ITS DE-
TENDERS.

This nation has never failed tc
show its appreciation for the service
of those who in time of war have Of
fered their lives in it's defense. This
service is not of the kind that can be
measured in cash. 1t necessarily in
wolves personal sacrifice and loss Of
opportunity and exposure to dangers
that may result in physical disabil-
ity and loss or life. But this is the
price Of our political freedom. Tt was
freely and gloriously paid by our fore
fathers in &c. and in every war since
our freedom was won the same spirit
Of devotion and sacrifice has actuat-
ed the defenders of our country. And
herein lies the strength of the nation
1t was their willingness to fight and
if need be die for their country that
gives a halo to our national heroes. |
In appreciation for their services the
government has always made provi-
sion for their widows and dependents |

MOVEMENT STARTED TO AID
VERTlSE IDAHO.

Preliminary steps were taken at
Boise a few days ago to inaugmate a
gigantic campaign to advertise Idaho
covering a period of five years. the
eliminating point in these efforts to
be reached in 1925 when there viii
be great movement OF people from
the east to attend the Portland expo
sition The plan is q fine conception,
and if assurance is given that every
section Of the state win have equal
opportunity to share in its benefits.
the movement is one that should re-
oeive enthusiastic support. We make
this proviso advisedly, for experience
has shown that efforts at state ad-
vertising in the past have been de-
voted chiefly to attracting public at
tcntion TO the agricultural resources
and particularly 90 the reclamation
projects of south Idaho. The oppor-
tuniues offered homeseekers on the
land reclaimed by irrigation certainly
deserve the widest publicity. for there
is no state in the west that can COM
pare with Idaho in this respect and
the encouragement of emigrants to
occupy this land is matter OF direct
interest to every citizen of the state.
But this is equally true of other nat
ural resources and these should be
given a position their Importance de-
mands in any statewide advertising
campaign Idaho is "a great agricul-
tural state, but it ranks no higher in
that respect than in mining. And it
is a fact which the Miner has often
pointed ont, but which the agricul-
turists seem slow to grasp. that the
development of the mining resources |
directly benefits the farmer the
stockman and the fruit grower by
providing an all the year home mar
ket for their products. 1t does this /
by giving employment to labor and /
besides it distributes millions Of dol
lars through payrols and the pur- /
chase of material, machinery and .
supplies which finally reach to every .
channel of trade and traffic. When
one contemplates the vast benefits
derived by the state through the ex-
nloitotion of IFS mineral resources

EASTON AND THE STATE BOARD
OF EDUCATION.

The recent appointment of Stanl,
A. Easton, of Kellogg, general mana
ger of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
Mining q Concentrating company, a
la member of the state board of edu
cation. has been received with un
usual expressions of approval anC
commentator throughout the state
The appointment is equally crafty
ing to members of the mining profes
sions outside the state, ms indicated
10y the following editorial comment
from the Mining and Scientific Press
of san Franchises:
Politics is dirty business
most of the time and when it be-
comes injected into an education
al system it makes no end of
trouble as has been seen in the
recent history of the Colorado
school of mines. whose reputa-
ton has been saved. not by any
thing done by its trustees or by
the legislature. but by the excell-
ent records made by it's gradu-
ates We say this in order to
give emphasis to our pleasure in
announcing the acceptance by
Mr. Stanly A. Easton of an APP
pointment as a member of the
state board of education and the
board of regents of the University
of Idaho The dean of the school
of mines Mr. Francis A. Thorn
son, writes to MS to express his
delight with the appointment, and
we can well understand his feel
ings ON the subject. The mana
ger Of the Bunker Hill is exactly
the broad minded clear headed
man to be a sagacious trustee for
an educational establishment;
himself "a graduate from the Uni
versity OF California and re-
markably successful mining en-
gineer he has shown a wise hui
maniy i'm his management of
men and keen response to
everything that is progressive.
not only i'm technical matters but
i'm social Institutions. The gov
