THE NON-PARTrsAN LEAGUE
LOSES ITS IDENTITY

The NOnpartisan league Is dead in
Idaho, says the Caldwell Tribune. and
in a lengthy editorial says" Its death
knell was sounded at Nampa last
Tuesday when an affiliation was af-
fected with the s.Committee of s8"
and a new Progressive" party in
Idaho was born, Thus passeth an
other OF the inumerable fanciful i'd
eas humans fall heir to in trying ont
political experiments. The league
could not succeed because its basic
idea was wrong. 1t hoped to devote
all the agencies OF state government
TO the help of one class, the farmer.
Government serves all the people,
hence the notion itself lacked the
solid foundation of common sense.
To-day farmers are trying to do
for themselves what they hoped the
Non-partisan league would do for
them. Through the farm bureau CO.
operative marketing and co-opera-
tive financing are ushered in new
era for the agricultural industry in
the United States. Here the farmer
is applying the only economic means
of getting what justly belongs to him.
Legislation is not the way. Pooling
of interests in a business manner can
accomplish far more. And it won't
bankrupt the state either.
Whatever the Progressive party
may do in Idaho this fall. the league
is gone. 1t brought Idaho nothing
and cost Idaho farmers many thous-
ands of dollars not a few of which
helped to fatten Towney's fortunes.
Perhaps adversely has again
brought to the surface the great Am
eriean attribute of sober, common
sense
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1922-02-17

The first calls for the reducing of
naval armament and is the first step
toward practical peace that has ever
been attempted. The occupation of
Shantung by the japanese has been
IA sore srot which might at any time
have turned into a war in the Far
East, dragging in other countries, the
United States included. Today we
knew that Japan has agreed to turn
this territory back to China, and
Great Britain has also turned back a
piece of land to China.
The naval treaty actually calls for
scrapping battIeships. 1t gets down
to brass tacks and has the support of
all countries represented.
The grand results of this conference
Fcannot be estimated now, 1t will take
many years for the world to know
how great it really was.

COMMANDER BOOTH SAYS
PROHIBITION is A SUCCESS

Commander Evangeline Booth, who
was in Boise last week, represents
the great Salvation Army, an organi-
cation that gets closer to the poor
and the down and outs of the country
than any other. She knows the effects
of the liquor traffic.
Evangeline Booth says the populat-
ion of penal institutions has been re-
|duced; that many jails are converted
into dwelling apartments. and prisons
turned into schools and social cen
ters. She states that prohibition has
improved health and reduced mortal
ity in the country. She says that in
Boston, deaths by accident dropped
|one-third, from suicide one-fifth, and
and from alcoholism 79 per cent. She
says the homes in the slums are inn
mensely improved; and that in place
of bread lines, the men now support
their families, and increase their
bank accounts.
Commander Booth says the one out
standing result is the increase of the
privileges and opportunities of life
for the boys and girls of the poorer
classes OF our country. 1t means. I"
she says. in the future we shall have
less to do with the grave and more to
do with the cradle; less binding up
of life's broken plants and more
training of life's untrammeled vines;
that more of our energy will be
thrown into the work of prevention,
which In the final analysis must be
so much more valuable to the home.

than even the most worthy work of
