THE COST OF PUBLIC
APATHY

Though the people of America are
one hundred per cent opposed to any
more taxation and are heartily sick
of the burdens that make their feel
ings known with sufficient vigor to
cause their representatives in Con-
gress TO take notice.
Every man lodges the issue by say
ing TO himself,"W What's the use of my
saying anything" As Mark Twain
said of the weather: Everybody
growls but nobody does anything"
Best authorities agree that addi-
tional federal taxation this year is
unacceptable. National receipts will
be less than figured on and expendit-
ures more. President Harding has
announced an unbridged span of
$697 100000, and if Great Britain
fails to pay the interest on money
lent her here during the war the de-
felt will be S900,000,000.
Against this may be deducted 1912,
000, 900 of the balance in the Treasury
at the close Of the fiscal year, and this
spells additional taxation.
The farming interests shrek at the
thought Of screwing up the corpora
ton taxes, which undoubtedly would
prove final blow TO a business reviv-
al. There remains then the income
tax, now outrageously high, but stand
ing out as "the best bet Of the poll
tians."
If the public remains apathetic, as
is its custom, then there will be no
justification for complaint when the
new burden Is added
II is questionable if any country in
the world is as unscientific in its tax
alton as the United States. This is be-
cause the people refuse to take an in
terest in what is being done in their
name,

GIDDY TEACHER DEALT SWAT

Greenfield, lnd.-Hancock county,
former home of James Whitcomb Ri
ley, the famous "Hoosier poet" has
dealt a death blow to the flapper ped
pgogue.
The county board of education at a
recent meeting went farther, and went
on record as opposed to ultra-stylish
dress and the use of rouge by women
teachers, and of tobacco by men,"
The edict of the board was contain
ed in the following resolutions: RE
solved that we do not look with favor
en- the wearing Of ultra-stylish dresses
in the schoolroom by our teachers, and
ask that they be rather conservative
in their dress, use of rouge, ETC.; be it
further
Resolved: That we are absolutely
opposed to the attendance at public
dances by the teachers of Hancock
county, and require that teachers alb
stain from such attendance, and other
questionable social practices; be it
further
Resolved: That we are opposed to
the appearance in the schoolroom of
women teachers with bobbed hair, and
require that, if any have been, so un-
fortunate as to have their hair bobbed.
they shall devise some scheme to do
their hair up with nets, or otherwise.
While IN the schoolroom."

ISN'T 1T TINE TO
CALL A HALT?

In all conscience how can any con-
gresham who supported Frank Good
ing's land grab as embodied in House
Bill "a expect to get by In the coming
election? George Waters, who IL OPP
posing CONGRESSMAN French, Is using
this inquiry in his campaign and the
indications are that he is making tell
ing use of it too, for Mr.. French voted
for and supported the obnoxious mea-
cure until storm of protest compell-
ed the president TO veto it,
As MIR. Waters shows by the sworn
statement of Harry Ia Moyne House
Bill "a was framed after certain con-
tracing parties had schemed to get
control of large areas of grazing land
in Idaho.
The sworn statement AS read by Mr..
Waters tended to show that the cir
cumstances leading up to the passage
of this measure were those controlled
by special interests.
One of these men, according to the
speaker, was J.E.Clinton, who, in an
address before an assemblage in Boise
declared that 'every card in the deck
was laid on the table face up before
Congressman French and Smith
there was no information held back,
no contracts or the information cover
ing them held back"
The affidavit sets forth that Le-
Moyne, sheepmanin the Wood River
and Hagerman Valley country, was as
ISOLATED with James T.. Clinton in
1917 when the question of range be
came very important and pressing
one; that in the summer of 1920
Messers. Homer Fem. former district
forester, Clinton and LeMoyne dis
cussed the ACCESSIBILITY of securing the
passage of a bill through congress by
which certain lands near the northern
Idaho forests could be conveyed to the
government and in return the owners
of the land could acquire the right to
take up range lands in southern
Idaho; that Fem thought he could Sc
cure passage of the bill as forest re-
serve measure. II was agreed, states
the affidavit, that IeMoyne should To-
cate the range lands and that Fem
would take charge Of the proposed bill.
IeMoyne claimed in the affidavit that
Fem reported later the bill was pro-
crossing satisfactorily and that its
passage meant large blocks of lands
would be acquired in southern Idaho.
We have right TO expect better
thinga of our congressman than that
they should stand in with this Gooding
enterprise, which was intended to
take away from the public domain it's
most valuable acreage by townships
and place II in the hands of monopol-
lists, whose stock would range thereon
TO the exclusion of the cattle and sheep
of everybody else. Under the provis-
ions of this bill II carried out, there
there might not AZ this day be sin
gle sheep allowed on the open range of
Lemhi county except those of Gooding
and his associates in this monopolistic
scheme. Congressman French was all
set for carrying il out.

AN UNREST TONIC
NEEDED

What the country needs most today
is genuine guaranteed tonic that
will pull our people up and out of this
general situation of unrest hat has
fastened upon them with such tena-
cious hold that its power is having
a most ruinous effect upon the reason
ing faculties of an otherwise satisfied
and progressive people.
Much talk was made about the "un-
rest" in the country Just at the close
of the war and much was accomplished
To aid in overcoming il. But the UNI
rest ut that time can be compared as
only 81 drop in the ocean, To the
unsettled condition of peoples minds
today.
Assured abundant crops throughout
the agricultural regions has always
heretofore brought rejoicing, peace of
mind and satisfaction To our people,
but those REQUISITES so beautifully in
evidence today do not carry the usual
soothing lotion.
Such is the unrest among our agri-
cultural element that prevents them
from seeing even the least bright ray
of hone in the future. They are faced
by 80 many present real dark clouds
on the horizon detrimental to their in
terest and advancement il il but
natural that fanciful bad omens are
coniured up until they combine into
dark and massive stone wall that
they cannot see way around, under
or over il.
In the face of a little "plunging,"
little over buying and over borrow
ing, and perhaps little over indul-
gencc in Injuries during the high
priced period of several wears ago,
the farmer has y real cause for unrest
when he faces those obligations now
and tries to dispose of them through
the marketing of his products at prices
that often will not meet the high
taxes. interest and other necessary
expenses.
The Spectator who took a chance
and invested heavily during the inflat-
ed period has no one but himself and
his own Judgment to blame, but the
actual farmer that tills the soil from
year To year and provides food for
the nstion, is entitled to a reliable
tonic that will relieve him from his
present dilemma.
He should Mt least have the as
surance that his products bring sufii-
Gent returns TO meet the cost of pro-
duction. and not he forced to deliver
his products into the hands of the
price jugglers who look after self in
terests first and the producer the last
one to be considered and reluctantly
takes what is left.
our government regulates the
freight rate the farmer shall paw on
his products Ia market. why can't il
regulate the price on what the farmer
produces! II the farmer was assured
he would receive 10 cents pound for
his pork. he would use his best endeav-
ors 10 produce IL for as much under
that figure - possible in order to
make profit. and likewise with all
his other products. But there is no
inducemcnt for him to raise pork cost
ing him 10 cents n pound with no as
surance that il will even bring back
the returns of half that amount.
