THE NoN-PARTIsAN LEAGUE
HAD IT'S PURPOSE

The Times publishes an article from
the Caldwell Tribune relative to
what it terms The Death Knell" of
the Non-Partisan league. While the
main points of the article may be cor
rect, we hardly agree with the state
ment that the league has been of no
benefit to Idaho. 1t has emphasized
the injustice of marketing conditions
where the middleman has taken the
profit that has rightfuliy belonged to
the producer.
In the platform of principles of the
league were several radical ideas, but
we must remember that the Populist
party was charged with unsound and
wild ideas of government yet we
have lived to see several planks of
the populist platform adonted as the
constitutional law of the land.
A reform party does not secure the
votes of the masses for the reason
that there are dissensions from with
in, and it is possible that the pluto
Gratis did not have as much to do
with the destruction of the Non-part-
isan league, as did the leaguers them
selves. The people that voted out
the non-partisan league in North Da-
Rota were faction of the league it.
self, assisted by the kindly Offices of
''the enemy" In a reform party are
leaders of various conflicting ideas,
Their independence of thought is one
reason for their not being in one of
the old parties.
But it has been the history
of our nation that reforms orig
mate outside of the big party or
ganizations. While the republican
party has just accomplished the linn
itation of war armament, the Popu-
lists and later the Non-partisans have
always opposed the huge war ex-
penditures, for economic as we'll as
moral reasons.
But one mistake of the Non-parti-
sans was to oppose Through certain
leaders) an active participation in the
world war. Townley is an extremist
and he will now go back into the
Socialist party, where he belongs. He
contributed to the downfall of the
league by not standing four-square
for our country in time of danger,
and also by placing his personality
above that of the welfare of the
organization of which he was the
head.

THE PROBLEM WOULD BE
SIMPLE, WOULDN'T 1T

The treasury of the league of nat
ions is empty on account of the refus-
al of one-third of the members of the
league to pay their dues. One of the
little bills presented recently is one
OF a million francs annually to pay
the rent and board of the former Em-
peror Of Austria and his family, who
are now exiled by decree of the
league of nations supreme council. to
Madeira island. This land belongs TO
Portugal, and the latter wants the
rent paid If the u S. were member
of the league the problem would be
simple, wouldn't it?

CONFERENCE
WAS A GREAT SUCCESS

The closing of the arms conference
marked the end of meeting which,
as President Harding said in his clos
ing address, wrought a truly great
achievement No meeting of this kind
in the history of the world ever ac-
'eomplished so much real good in SO
short time. In less than three
months, the representatives of the
nine great countries of the world sat
together and agreed on matters
which have worried the world for a
long, long time. The two most impor-
tant matters settled by this meeting
and by signing of treaties were the
naval pact and the agreement reIat-
ing to China. j.

HAS BEEN ABUSED

j. L. Nungester, the inventor and
promoter. who secured a good sized
amount of money from Meridian
people, with the sale of incubator
stock, was first charged with vielat-
ing the blue sky law of Idaho, and
later confined in the Canyon county
Jail, but the suit was dismissed on
account of lack of evidence. He is
now out on bail, on second charge,
but has turned on his prosecutors and
the latest is a suit for damages
against Charles Verheyan, a Nampa
farmer.

A. r. ESTES SAYS SHEEP
ARE COMING RACK


A. r. Estes, who probably makes a
closer watch of the sheep market
than any man in Ada county, takes
an optimistic view of the sheep in
during the past two years. Before
leaving Meridian for HALEY, Tues
day, where he will load 1900 lambs
for T. B. Hood & Co. for the Omaha
market, he informed the Times that
fat lambs were worth $14.50 in
Chicago and good ewes from So to
$40 per hundred. Compared to
last year, when there was no demand
at any price, this looks decidedly bet
ter.
Mr. Estes says that ii it were not
for the fact that some sheep men
were put out of business entirely, the
industry would be getting on its
feet" again but those who are stay
ing in the business will make good
from now on. Wool of the 1920 and
1921 clip sold recently as high as zoe
while last year at this time there was
no market Another thing that will
contribute to the success of the sheep
man is that feed is cheap, and will
he, and labor to care for the sheep is
also cheaper, compared with last
year.
The United States government is
already spending half billion a year
for soldier relief--and this amount
which will be spent during the year
1922, is greater than the entire ex-
pense of all departments OF govern
ment of the United States in any year
prior to 1897.

Promoters Hard Up
for Proper Go to
Spring on Public
BY HENRY FARRELL.

NEW YORK, May e.-Unless the very
apparent slump In baseball attendance
| means tightening OF the. string on the
| sport pocketbook the public ought to be
ready for million dollar shake down on
some kind of fight this summer. ro-
| motors who know how to do the shaking
| SO far have been unable to md any kind
| OF shaker.
So many barriers are in the way Of
Dempsey Wills match that real heavy.
weight attraction seems out OF the Dues
| ton. The champion couldn't find work
in this country and, according to reports,
Europe.
Jack Kearns finally has admitted thas
the British are cool to another Dempsey
Carpenter comedy and Europe isn't keen
about donating half million or so to the
dependents of Dempsey and Wills.
Benny Leonard and Lew Tender for
the light weight championship~looks like
the next best shaker to big heavy
| weight encounter. The two leading box
ers have so many ideas that the bout
looks almost impossible. Tender Is be-
ing criticized because he turned down
an offer Of So, 500 to meet Leonard, an
unheard Of sum for challenger among
the little fellows.
If a fighter is allowed to have any
business ideas at all Tender Is not such
grabber. He figures that bout in
draw a gate Of $500 900 and that &c ought
t. get at least % per cent OF It Neither
Leonard nor Tender has any desires to
put promoter on easy street.
Some OF the smaller fry are looking
to a featherweight title bout to all In
the blank spaces in the calendar.
Pepper Martin, who has just reached
the peak Of the greatest built up" OF
recent time. figures that he deserves Q
crack at the venerable J. Kilbane. Ono
Of his several managers says that he 10
going to Cleveland to rub $4,000 under
the nose Of the champion and dare him to
fight.
1t seems too bad that Martins handlers
have to spend good carfare. Kilbane was
here recently and waited around several
days for various offers, but failed to hear
a word about real proposition.
The middleweight class is just about
dead since Johnny Wilson has brought
every one down on him. The bantam
weight division under the regime Of
Johnny Buff has slumped almost into
the discard and old Jack Britton hasn't
any prospects unless the much talked.
