HUGHES GIVES SOUND ADVICE

men who had successfully qualified

the eve of their departure for their
posts in various parts of the world

them any specific instructions re-

underlying principles that should

Borah is the Unofficial Leader in Senate
Baltimore sun. July 27)

1t is a fact of the highest import
that though a majority of nearly T.
100000 votes was apparently cast
against a peace measure-the league
of natiOns-last fall disarmament
should now be the foremost thought
in the mind of the world; that it
should be becoming the issue by
which all other issues are being test
ed, to a greater or less extent And
it is equally suggestive of the power
behind this issue that one of the most
uncompromising of the republican
group of irreconcilables to the Wilson
peace plan should now Harding
Mr.. Harding as the leading advocate
of pulling the teeth and claws of war.
The ability of Senator Borah has
been recognized for years. but he has
never occupied such a commanding
position as he does today And the
reason is that he has never before
associated himself with such a cause
as disarmament. He has walked to
find himself internationally famous
because he has put into words the
great hope which has been flaming
up ardently in the heart of mankind
ever since the most cruel and fatal of
wars came to a close. If there was
one lesson taught by that outburst
of insanity it was the peril as well as
the burden of immense ornaments !
If that lesson is ignored, the millions /
who persisted or were crippled on the /
battle fields the wreck of nations and 4
of individual lives have all been a
vain and ruinous sacrifice. Suddenly
Borah, like Saul on his way to Da-
mascus, has seen a great light, has
read the war lesson Alright has be-
come the evangelist of great and a
practical gospel BY force of the cry
which he uttered, of the role which
he has assumed, he has made himself
not only the commanding figure in the
senate, but in many ways the DOM
inant figure in the republican party
At time when there is a dearth of
real leadership in both parties, Borah
BY silent plebiscite has been ac-
as the only man in either {

NO INSURANCE AGAINST AUTO
MOBILE COLLISIONS.

Idaho seems to have earned an IN
onyiable position on account of laxity
i'm enforcement of road laws, for it
was announced this week that insur-
ance companies writing automobile
insurance have decided they will not
assume risks in this state for accidents
due to collision. So many accidents
of this kind have occurred in the
state in recent months that insurance
companies claim they can no longer
afford to include this class of risk in
their policies, at least until the au-
thorities show more determination in
the enforcement Of the laws of the
road. Thus careful and w-respect-
ing drivers of automobiles are to be
deprived of insurance protection be-
cause few reckless and irresponsi-
bic drivers go tearing along the
highways without the slightest regard
for the law or the rights of other
drivers No one can blame the in
surance companies. for so long as
these speed maniacs are allowed to
drive at viii through the streets and
over the highways without restraint,
it is not to be expected that insurance
companies will assume any liability
against collision. Referring to this |
county it was "a good move when the |
county Mullan, Wallace and Kellogg
joined in the employment of motor |
cycle officers to enforce the road laws,
but it appears that some regular Off !
GERS seem to be under the impression
that this action relieved them Of Civ
ing any attention at all to the en-
iorcement of those laws. 1t is time
that their minds should be disabused
md that they be given to understand
NAT their tenure of Office may de-
bend upon their attitude toward the
enforcement Of these laws. The peo-
DE pay for this protection, and now
hat the violation Of the law has be-
ome so fragrant that insurance COM
anies Will no longer take the risk,
he city and county peace officers
hould be required to give special at
sntion to its enforcement and mag
'rates should impose penalties in
eeping with the ofense.

SHAFT SINKING.

Some high records in shaft sinking
have been made in the Occur d'AIene
district, and the attempt that is now
being made in Utah to establish a
new world record will be watched
with interest. According to a news
paragraph an effort to break the
worlds record in shaft sinking. now
held by the Crown Mines in South
Africa, was started on July Is at
Eureka, Utah, by the Walter Fitch.
Jr7 Co.. which began the work of
deepening the Water Lily shaft of the
Chief Consolidated Mining company.
The start was made at 500 o'clock in
the morning, at which time the meas
lrement from collar to bottom made
by certified engineers, was 115.5 feet.

voice crying aloud in the dull wilder
ness of the senate with prophetic
Iearnestness and inspiration that gave
life and motion to a seemingly MORT
bund proposition. in selecting Am
erican representatives to the interna-
tional conference on disarmament
and Pacific problems the president
will make a mistake if he ignores Mr..
Borah. He is intellectually far better
equipped for such service than Mr..
Lodge, and her epresents a popular
following that embraces millions of
men and women in both parties. The
people of the United States feel in
this matter a strong confidence in
Senator Borah which they do not en-
terrain for the Massachusetts senator
Mr.. Borah is one of the logical dele
gates to that conference, and if Mr..
Harding fails to appoint him he may
suffer from the same sort of criticism
which he directed against Mr.. VIII
sons selections for the Paris confer
ence.
These reflections acquire additional
force from the continuous lombard
ment of common sense which Mr.
Borah maintains upon this subject
With disturbing directness he fred
right at the financial heart of the
whole question in his speech in the
senate Monday, in which he opposed
the refunding of the allied debt until
the question of disarmament has been
thrashed out If the foreign govern
ments invited to the conference are
unable to agree to disarmament, he
said the American people will be
justified in insisting that they
promptly meet their debts and inter
est Also In other words, if they can
afford the expensive luxury of big
armies and navies they can afford to
pay us what they owe. IT, on the
other hand, they do not force us to
continue an expensive military pro-
gram, we, on our part may be able to
De generous.
Mr. Borah, doubtless, is a thorn in
he side of the Harding administra-
ion, as he was in that of Mr. Wilson.
But it would be a serious mistake to
reat him as an enemy or a political
gitator He is leading the massed
eminent of this country and of 9TH
r countries, and the sooner that is
called by government officials in all
f them the better it will be for Off
ials and for peoples. The hideous in
irrational crime of 1914-1S must
ever be repeated.

THE GOODBYE KISS.
(Boise Statesman)

(Boise Statesman)
Reading a recent issue of the New
York Times Book Review and Maya
zine section. one may come upon 6
reprint of a poem by Andrew Lang
which contains this sterling verse:
A goodbye kiss is a little thing,
With your hand on the door to
go;
But it takes the venom out of the
sting
OF a thoughtless word or a cruel
fling
That you made an hour ago.
A little thing" indeed In a mil

infinitely more momentous than was

and its preservation-the preservation
