.COMMENDS WORK FOR
PUBLICITY CAMPAIGNS
VISITOR AND BUYER OF KAN
SAS LAUDS PARALLEL THAT
is FOUND IN MOSCOW.

In a letter to the editor Of this
newspaper, Harrison Veale, Kansas
City, cattle buyer and an old friend
says his trip into the Latah valley
was a revelation as regards the wheat
fields, and the fact that hillside cul-
tivation was practised was something
new. He was also impressed with the
fact that moisture was so prevalent
in the valley and that the farmers he
met impressed him with their remark
that rain or no rain" they were
bound to have crop.
Kansas, he says, emerged from
bloody bleeding Kansas" to state
of mixed farming. The old horn and
the one crop, corn, has given way to
Holsteins, Jerseys, Guernseys, Short
horns, and mixed farming. The state
does not depend on the one crop and
one cattle idea any more. Drawing
the parallel, Mr.. Veale, who is an
agricultural writer as well as cat
tie and sheep man, says that Idaho
is bound to come to mixed farming
sooner or later. In this statement he
is backed by by N. Williamson who is
pioneering the way here for more
dairy farms.
Moscow I see is waking up," he
concludes. ''The chamber of COM
merce is doing now what Kansas did
years ago, taking up the publicity
plans for placing the city, the county,
and the state on the map. I am mighty
glad to see this going on all over
Idaho. DR. Fisher, who is going over
the state addressing the different
commercial bodies, is one of those
men who can see as we did in Kansas
years ago the advantages of not only
showing its resources but also the
beautiful highways and farm scenes
on the routes north and south"
Mr.. Veale begs to be remembered
to all old friends and to Mr. and Mrs.
T. M. Wright of the Moscow hotel.
He is going on a trip thru Colorado
shortly to inspect the cattle on the
national forest ranges.

OvERHAULS SYSTEM
AND EXPLAINS DETAILS

Manager C. J. Langdon was over
hauling the plant of he Moscow Tele-
phone and Telegraph company Tues
day. Repair work is his hobby and
he is as good at the tools as he is
with a social gathering. A Star
Mirror man learned that while this
plant was looked on as small town
board and plant yet its pro rata was
on a par with cities of larger size
and population, and no exception is
taken even to Spokane.
The switch board, it was learned,
was such that an operator could do
as good work as in cities of the size
stated The Moscow plant has the
multiple switch board just as in large
cities. Mr. Langdon said further that
the service was accelerated by con-
nections with the phone systems OF
Latah county, and of course the long
distance service is quite a speciality
This is in great request by the mer-
camille and industrial public The
telegraph office being near was also
an advantage.
There are 500 phones in active op-

will see more of it when the Univer-

EX-GOVERNOR SHOWS
WORK OF STATESMAN
LAUDS DISARMAMENT MOVE
FOR NATIONS AS BIG TRI-
UMPH FOR THE SENATOR.

Ex-Governor W. J. Mcconnell said
Tuesday to the Star-Mirror that few
public men achieve a distinction like
| Borah. BOrah was man and a
statesman that would not stand for
crookedness even in a republican al
! though a strong man of the party
| himself. His character and capacity
has been evidenced in fighting and
working out the problems of today.
He has on more tina none occasion
like Causar crossed the Rubicon. He
has never played to politics.
Borah, he added, has been in the
senate since 1907. He took decided
stand on the income tax. His plain
speaking was remarkable. He follow
ed up the supreme court decision on
the unconstitutionality of the income
taxes, and was successful inputting
thru an amendment to the constltu-
ton on this subject. He won out,
said the ex-governor, and he then
went to work for a department of
labor and to establish a Children's
bureau. He was statesman-like in
providing for these.
Much has been said about Borah's
fight against the League of Nations.
He did not want any "entangling al
liances." He was for his country and
nothing else But his greatest effort
was when he went to work and in
vited President Harding to call in
the nations of Europe, especially
Great Britain and Japan, for dis
armament conference. He was again
st expenditures that meant ruin to
the nations. He could see with proph-
etic vision the catastrophes that
would follow the building up of great
navies and excessive armies. His bill
went so to 0 in the senate.
In his conclusion Ex-Governor Nc
Connell summed up the Borah naval
resolution as an amend
ment to the naval bill and its endorse
ment by both branches Of congress as
a remarkable example of the tenacity
and persistence of statesman And
that is why he said in the beginning
that Borah stands alone as man
and senator.

.REPORTTL|TTLE DAMAGE
FROM STORM IN COUNTY

INQUIRY at the office of the North
ern Pacific railroad Tuesday morning
showed that as a result of the wind
and rain storm in the JulIaetta secnon
yesterday afternoon about three
o'clock the tracks in that section near
Juliaetta had been covered up with
debris, and hat Train No. 313 was de-
layed. The tracks however were clear
ed and traffic was resumed.
At Genesee the rain and dust storm
struck that section at about the same
hour, but it was remarkable that SO
little rain fell. What rain there was
appeared of an intermittant charac-
ter. In some sections hail was re-
ported. The Ed Steltz place, south
east of Genesee, where shocks of
wheat had been left standing for
combining felt the severity of the
hail, and losses are reported from
the scattering of the grain. This was
the only report of losses.
So far as Latah county is concerned
the damages are not thought to have
been large, the storm beginning at the
same time in the Genesee and Julia
etta sections. It assumed the pro-
portions of a gale when it struck the
Lewiston section damaging the or
chards, the grain fields, covering a
strip estimated by the Tribune at a
mile in width, and causing damages
estimated at $4,000. Water collected
in the Evans gulch and caused
flooding of several blocks on Twenty
two and Twenty-fourth streets in that
