Auto Tags are Ordered.

Machinery for licensing the more
than so thousand automobiles in the
state for 1922 has been set up and
applications for license will be re-
ceiyed at the Offices of the Al coun-
ty recorders on and after December
90 1t was announced Saturday by
Robert 0. Jones, secretary of state.
Plates will be sent out on and after
this date but MIR, Jones cautions all
automobilists against using the 1922
plates before January /. To do so
is Illegal, he says.
Applicants for licenses are ad
vised that under an act of the 1921
legislature application blanks prop
erly filled out together with the re
ceipt furnished by the county re
corder. may be used in lieu of Ii
eense plates until the plates arrive.
The application and the receipt
must be pasted on windshield where
LHby Can ne seen.
Many violations of the automobile
registration law, Mr.. Jones believes
are due to unfamiliarity with the
provisions of the law and for this
reason he has had printed on the
back of the application blanks for
1922 a short synopsis of certain
features of the Idaho law. Regist-
rants are advised by the secretary tc
thoroughly familiarize themselves
with the law because ignorance Is
no excuse
The color scheme of the 1922
plates is orange figure on a black
ground.
Registration for 1921 reached ST.
81 Saturday and approximate re-
ceipts for all licenses sold are $780,
G2t.45. The registration in 1920
was 50,S61 but the receipts were
greater than for 1921. Mr.. Jones
believes this Is due to the fact that
a large number OF cars this year
took the reduced rate because Of age,
In other words, he says, there were
not so many new cars bought in
1921.
He estimates that If 1922 main
tains the normal increase which took
place from year to year from 1914
to 1920, the receipts from this reg
istration should approximate one
million dollars. Fees collected by
the several counties of the state for
the operation of automobiles is di-
yided rs per cent to the counties
and 25 per cent to the state.
Enforcement Of the registration
law during 1921, although only
partially complete, shows 109 ar
rests and fines collected to the
amount of $1104.1O. This is an
increase over 1872 when the total
amount OF fines collected was $i47.-
85.
Early in 1922 about 100 men will
be appointed honorary inspectors by
the state to add in the administra-
ton of the registration law and to
assist the state generally in en-
forcing motor laws. These men
will serve without pay and part Of
them will be selected from the per
sonnet of the department OF public
works. Others will be appointed
from state automobiles associations.

Weather Report.

Over north Idaho, the panhandle,
the week was cloudy and showery.
Moderate temperatures prevailed un-
til the last two days, when 1t turned
colder. The weather was quite fa-
vorable for outdoor work, and con-
siderable blowing was done in the
lower valleys. Fall sown wheat is
wintering well and looks fine. All
stock are doing we'll.
Over southern Idaho temperatures
were slightly above normal the first
half of the week, but the change to
colder about midweek brought the
coolest weather of the winter so far.
There was an abundance of sunshine
until the last two days, when it be-
come cloudy and light precipitation
occurred. Little, If any, field work
was possible, as the ground was
frozen hard much of the time Con-
ditions were very favorable for feed /
ing and all classes of livestock are
thriving.

JAPANESE ARE wARLIKE

In reference to the war threats of
Japan. the American people are, as
usual. quite uncOncerned and skeptlcal.
why should Japan attack the United
states? In answering this question the
average American Is very apt To use
the same language as was used In an
swering the threats Of Germans. But
Germany did attack the United States
and the time will come when Japan
will attack the United States. Perhaps
the rea SONS are insufficient and the
motive inadequate but Americans fail
10 internret the yellow mems minds
when they nut themselves In their
places.
II is not enough to have homes inten-
fions: II Is not enough to seer peace
and pursue Il. Good intentions. unfor-
tnnatelv. are very often misunderstood
or purposely taken advantage OF a.
weakness.
II is true that America has nothing
10 gain by war with Japan. Japan Is
n moor country hardly worth the con
nueSt II has no lands which Americans
would colonize. no resources Whlch
Americans covet. America Is wealthy
enough not to fear trade competition
There is no disposition even in Can

dents America. however, proposes 10

Grants and America doesn't want the
Japanese.
ON the other hand, japan feels that
america interferes with plans for the
expansion Of its interests In ASA
America has land which Japan H. now
engaged in colonizing; America has

A GOOD TINE TO GO TO WORK

why shouldn't Deming have "A live
chamber of commerceg The demand
for one is voiced every day hv those
who have the best interests Of the city
at heart. They are willing to join ana
contribute 70 the maintenance OF the
institution II Il viii show signs OF NE.
Right now enthusiasm Is going 10 waste
that could mrn the big wheels of pro
gress for this section.
n is true that business Is slack. hut
the city Is full Of people. and a resump-
tiou of trade ON a normal basis only re-
uuireS a more self-assertiye attitude
ou the mart of the business interests.
People must buy and they are only
waiting until the merchants have got,
ten over their scare long enough TO hid
for the trade.
Really no ore Is suffering, hut almost
everyone is absorbing losses. This Is
especially true Of the shonkeepers VINO
have ON hand large stocks Of merchan-
disc that was purchased at "A hlgh
trice. Taking up the loss Is palntul
lut inevitable and the sooner II is done
the sooner will the shelves be tilied
with better goods at lower prices on
which a profit can be made. The large
profits of year ago are thing OF
the past and crying over them Is about
rs sensible as weeping over the proven
hal spilled milk. The whole condition
Is caused by break in the cycle or
trade and commerce will never flow
freely until the circuit Is closed.
Deming is passing up opportunities
that should be- grasped. What's the
use attitude seems 10 prevail. l'em-
ing knows what Il has accomplished
before when all the elements Of the city
worked in harmony for the good OF all /;
those accomplishments can be more
than Duplicated through a cooperation
that only needs organization.

The war spirit Is abroad In Japan
the japanese people speak very plainly
n their hate toward all things Ameri-

the people win gladly follow them IN

Very wisely congress has refused To
cripple the naval establishment TO
please certain pacifists OF visionary
ideals. So long as the United States
maintains an adequate navy Japan
cannot set single transport afloat TO
threaten either the Pacific coast or the
the Pacific possessions.

PRUNE THE
SHIPPING
BOAR D

The pruning knife in the hand of
General Charles G. Dawes has been
working to purpose, with the result
that many millions of dollars will be
saved the taxpayers through a reor-
ganization of the department in
Washington and the elimination of
unnecessary appropriations.
In the past one of the greatest
ambitions of the bureaucratic has
been to secure larger appropriations
than were really necessary. Legiti-
mates needs were hardly considered.
1t was a case of get all you can and
spend more than you get, trusting to
congress to make up the deficit.
All of this has been changed by
Dawes, as director of the budget, and
wasteful officials are warned to trim

From Vesper State Center: George
Wood of the Rapids was here Friday
with a party who is about to write
up a history of Wood county. In
cidently, George mentioned that he
was promoting the idea of setting
out trees along the roadside He says
that it is a very easy and simple
matter to set out small trees setting
them Is feet apart between the
telephone poles. He says a small elm
the size of broom handle or a white
pine under "a inches in height will in
variably live without any special care
when set out in this soil Unfortun-
ately, the roadside in this section is
almost nude to trees and Mr.. Woods
suggestion as to how easy it is to
get trees started ought to be an in
centive to local people to undertake
the task of planting trees along their
farm.

with its richness, and from the day
of its creation it HIS been blossominc
under the hand Of God and man
There are millions Of Americans
who apparently do not realize that
many of the marvels of the earth are
within a day or two's ride of their
homes-marvels that have never
seen.
As an example, of the two and a
quarter million people of Chicago
there are probably not over twenty
per cent who have ever seen the stock
yards, and yet they are the greatest
in the world You can watch a steer
unloaded from stock car and watch
it step by step until its meat is in
refrigerator ready for shipfent. You
can trace the path of the hide, and
tallow, the horns and the hoofs, and
even down to the blood and the hair,
step by step until they are all turned
out and finished by-product ready for
the market. And yet but few Aneri-
cans ever think of visiting this
marvel of the age.
The stock yards are only one of
the sights to be seen in this country.
It would require years of travel to
see and comprehend them ALL
1t seems to be the custom for many
people who amass a competence to
rush right over to some foreign
country to "see the sights" all of
which could be seen at home on the
screen for few cents. They see
few things over there, and miss a lot
of things over here. Often they are
embarrassed to find that some
foreigner who has never been here
has better knowledge of this country
than they themselves.
Fellows who rush abroad without
first moving his own country reminds
us of the poor fool who passed by a
dull nugget of gold in order to pick
up a scintillating piece of glass.
We have many of them.

whichever way you look at it-had an
amazing development when Governor
Small indicted for embeZZlement Of
state funds, decided that he was I'M
mune to arrest during his term In Of

state troops TO protect himself. His
lawyers, appear ring before Judge Smith
of Springfield as "amfci curfae," adj
vised the court that the governor was
immune, ridiCilously basing their as
sertion OH the old maxim that "the
king can do no wrong" The Judge
humored their solemn dignity with a
long and erudlte opinion, In which he
completely riddled their position,
turned their authorities against them
selves and made 1t quite clear that
In his view these friends of the court
were offering decidedly unfriendly ad-
vice. He ruled that the governor, like
any other man. was not immune to ar
rest and prosecution for crime. and
ordered the sheriff to take him into
custody after giving him reasonable
time to surrender At this writing

with his political friends. presumably

General Dawes has accomplished a
wonderful piece of constructive work,
but viii it avail US if the government
is going to continue pouring billions
into that loose jointed maverick
known as the shipping board, which
is on a par with our recent aeroplane
orgy of official waste and squander-
ing?
Why not turn Dawes loose, on the
shipping board, with instructions to
prune to the limit?
Of course, the general might get
into one of his famous Hell and
Maria" moods and blow the thing uP
with a few tons of dynamite or tow
it out into the Atlantic and sink it.
But in either case we are inclined
to the belief that he would earn a
collective and vociferous ''amen" from
a hundred million Americans.

feeding them to an inanimate
