In West Virginia armed moos represent
ing the mine workers and the coal operators
have been fighting for the control Of the coal
fields while the State Government has stood
apart, ignored and helpless.
1t isn't hard TO find reactionary minded
employers on one hand and radical labor
leaders on the other sternly determined to
establish and maintain rule of their own
above that Of the common law.
The typical agitator and the typical
propagandist is, in nine cases out Of ten, out
to supplement the mechanism of government
with some selfish scheme of his own.
The passion for organization under indie
pendent leadership which afficts all sorts
and conditions Of people usually reflects
half formed desire to extend a new and
informal sort of personal government over
large or small areas Of the country.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1921-09-22

Now. after typical local election, it is
interesting to consider the significance OF all
this.
Government and law ought to be every
where adequate and everywhere beyond
question. Neither should require the help
Of self appointed guides and censors.
When government is wisely organized Its
authority will not be questioned by any one
not obviously unbalanced or vicious.
But government in country like ours
is truly representative. 1t is so representa-
tive that it must always continue to reflect
the faults as we'll as the virtues of the
average voter. If 1t seems imperfect or
haphazard, 1t is because the voters Ideals
are imperfect and his reasoning haphazard.
Government in the United States, so long
as It is a government of parties. will always
reflect the spirit OF one party or another,
and since every recognized party has its
foundations In the cities and small commu-
nities-in the wards, as q matter of fact
the administrative processes at Washington
must inevitably be colored and directed in
ways indicated by the average voter at the
polls.

IL is not surprising, therefore, that IN
the campaign period preceding Tuesday,
election few. II any, of the candidates gave
a moment Of rational discussion to the reali-
ties Of the life about them.
Questions Of taxes were dismissed with
platitudes.
Questions of unemployment, of prices, Of
labor conditions. of strikes and loCkouts,
Of trolley fares, Of social and industrial con-
ditions generally we're not introduced into the
campaign.
These questions were left to settle them
selves.
The candidates didn't know what to sug-
gest.
Men who might have known what to
suggest for the later guidance Of their party
at Harrisburg and in Washington couldn't
have been elected.
Former Provost Smith, Of the University
Of Peunsylvania-we mention him merely
as a scholar and an idealist and n man of
great capacity for unselRsh service to his
community-wouldn' have had a ghost of
a chance against Magistrate Campbell.
Yesterdays voting revealed cross sec
tion Of American life.
Until the everyday voter acquires better
and truer sense Of his responsibility he will
be harried by the amateur tyrants whose
rise to influence he has been making possible.
It will be useless for him to talk about
the errors Of his Government.
He himself has an opportunity to better
governmental processes every time he goes
to the polls.

reforms he is crying for,
And, as a rule. he seldom even tries.

In an election such as that which has just
closed these voters are not asked to think.

JOINT MEETING IS A
BOOST FOR HIGHWAYS
COMMERCIAL BODIES WANT A
STRAIGHT IDAHO ROUTE
FOR RIGHT ROADS.

Gainford Mix in rousing address
at the meeting of the Moscow and
Lewiston commercial bodies with the
Genesee Chamber of Commerce at
Genesee last night, gave rQusing
address on the north and south high
ways. He did not care much about
going thru Washington route as this
section had the largest farms and the
largest average fields of wheat. He
praised the spirit of the Lewiston
people.
President Hagan of the Moscow
chamber spoke of maintenance as the
ruling factor in keeping the highway
in good condition for the tourist and
commercial travellers. He favored the
location in Idaho as outlined by Engi-
neer Van Arsdol of the u. S. highway
bureau. The highways could be built
entirely within the state and give
Idaho the right kind of status. He
invited the two chambers to meet with
the Moscow chamber Wednesday eve
ming, August "a.
President Morscheck of the Genesee
commerce body, told of his conference
with Engineer Van Arsdol and how
the latter declared the highways

There would be saving of mile be-
tween Lewiston and Genesee to CO.

He told of the discouraging expert
ences encountered. in working for the
state rights.
Other speakers were Carl Harris
and C. R. Adams who appealed for the
lewiston Charleston fair Mr.. Par
sons said the University of Idaho
would be represented by exhibits.
Frank Thompson, Lewiston highway
commission; R. P. Bevis, President,
Lewiston commercial club, and T. A.
Feeney, secretary, Lewiston CONNER

comprising Gainford Mix. Moscow;

Interest centered in an announce
ment Thursday in movie picture cir
cles at Los Angeles Of the visit of
Miss Cleo Joselin to her parents, Mr..

MUNICIPALITY CANNOT ACT
ON SWIMMING POOL TAX

Tom Mix, the Fox daredevil of the
screen, is coming to the Liberty
Theatre tonight and Friday in "A
Rim Romeo" In this picture Tom
does some new stunts that Manager
Coates declares will make you laugh
while they give you a thrill. Tom
wrote the play himself, so you can
realize that he has to put into it all
the things he likes to do; and besides,
Tom would just naturally write into
a story more daredeviltry than an
ordinary writer might imagine he
could do. You see, Tom has done prob
ably bigger thrillers on the range
when he was cowboy and when no
one was watching him than he ever
has put on the screen. ft
He has written himself into all
kinds of mischievous trouble in "A
Ridin' Romeo" Everybody but his
sweetheart is crying him down, until
they find he hasn't done half the
things charged against him, and moth
ing really criminal Then, crowd
like, everybody turns out to cheer for
him.

There Is quite round up going or

is to make tour of several counties

The demonstrators are taking ad-
vantage between dates until the uni
versity opens for the fall semester.
r. T. Parkhurst, poultry department
of the university, has been explaining
culling methods on hens and poor
layers in Power county this week. He
has a number of counties on his itin-
erary. Prem Moore, of the same de-
partment, has been giving poultry and
culling demonstrations in Fayette
county and at Bear Lake county he
will hold series of meetings. These
are known as group meetings and are
usually well attended by poultry fan
ciers, especially the wives Of the far
mers and their daughters
Miss Wilhemina Jacobson is giving
demonstrations on clothing to the
home ladies of Franklin county. 1t
may be said right here that home
economics, home management, and
household work are factors with this
department of educating for commu-
nifty gatherings. The uplifting OF
community, the easing of burdens on
the wife, and the economical methods
to be pursued go with this depart
ment.
Miss Anna E. Prang, specialist in
costume designing, is also doing a
good work among the wives and
daughters of the various communities
embraced in her itinerary. Both OF
these ladies are attached to the state

VIOLA ADvENT|STS'
CHURCH HEADS APPEAL
ADOPTS PETITION AGAINST
PROPOSED BLUE LAWS
FOR SIGNERS.

The following was received from
Viola Thursday on the petitions pro-
testing against the two compulsory
Sunday observance bills that have been
introduced into Congress for the Dis
trict of Columbia bearing the sigma
lures of merchants, physicians, law
yers and men and women in other
walks of ife in this vicinity, and
which are now being forwarded to our
representatives in the National law
making body at Washington, D. C.
These bills are known as HR 1888,
introduced by Congressman Zihlman
of Maryland and S 194S introduced by
Senator Myers of Montana.
Members of the Seventh Day Ad-
ventist Church are engineering the
gathering of signatures against the
bills. The Adventists say they see
danger of a national Sunday law,
should Congress enact such measures
for the District of Columbia, and that
is why they have been so active in
arousing sentiment against these two
measures. Not only are petitions be-
ing sent to our national representa-
tives, protesting against such legisla-
ton, but at a mass meeting held by
the Adventists, the following resolu-
ton protesting against the enactment
of these bills was passed:
Whereas there is nationwide eff
fort being put forth by certain rei-
gious organizations to Puritanize
America, and to revive the Sunday
blue-laws of Colonial times when the
church and state were united, there
fore be it
"Resolved, that we, the members of
assembled at the church of Viola,
Idaho on August 9Th do hereby petit
ton the United States Congress not
sorry Sunday observance bills, known
as 1948 and HR 1888.
We are opposed to the Sunday blue
laws because they are religious in
character and contrary to the genius
of the American system of govern
ment, in violation of the American
system of government, in violation
of the American principles of the
separation of the church and state,
and above all, they are manifestly un-
un-C Christian, unconstitu-
tional partial, and a piece of pure
class legislation, favoring certain
sects and discounting others under
duress of civil law. Religious legisla-
tion, unchecked, knows no limitations
and no mercy. The last step in that
direction is the Inquisition with all the !
horrors that bigots can invent. 1t is |
therefore, necessary that We take alarm
and raise our voices in protest against |
the first step heading US in that di-
rection and the first encroachments /
upon liberties. God made the con-
conscience free in the realm of relig- |
on and no men have a right to en- /
slave it."

ANNOUNCE STAFF OF
TEACHERS IN SCHOOLS
SUPERINTENDENT URGES A
LIST OF HOUSES-NEW
LAW OBTAINS.

September 9Th was fixed by the
Moscow school board as the date for
opening all the city schools. All va
cancies in the teaching corps have
been filled by teachers whose creden-
tials show high efficiency. Fulton
Gale, a Whitman graduate, who has
spent the last three years with the
Lewis and Clark High School of Spo-
kane, will be Principal of the high
school Miss Hilda Hanson, of the
ST. Cloud Normal and with five years
of experience, will have charge of the
Whitworth building. The Irving
building will cnntinue under the eff
cient supervision of Miss Ellen Peter
son. j. Rea Butler, of Seattle will
take charge of athletic coaching and
a snappy year of clean sports is as
sured. Vocational education will be in
charge of Miss Florence Sly of Col
umbia University, n. Y. who, with
her assistant Miss Stewart of Port
land, Oregon, will handle the Home
Economics work and Mr.. Ernest Ku-
rath, an experienced young Manual
Training director from Milwaukee

Under the provisions of the new
law passed at the last legislature
high school tuition for all those who
are not bona-fide residents of the
Moscow district will be based on the
actual cost to the district during the
preceding year. In accordance with
this provision the school board will
require of all non-residents high
school pupils tuition fee sufficient
to pay for actual per capita cost OF
such schooling. In the case of stu
dents coming from other parts of
Idaho this tuition fee will be paid by
students home district provided that
such home district does not offer high
school work. No change will be made
in the tuition charges for non-resl-
dent pupils in thegrades below the
high school.
In order to avoid the rush attend
ant upon the opening days, registra-
ton Of high school pupils will occur
some days prior to September 9th.
These dates will be announced upon
arrival of Principal-elect Mr.. Gale.
Supt Phi. Soulen is still desirous of
