None of That.

ALEXANDER goes stamping ul
and down the state charging that
Republicans have been wasteful anc
extravagant He demands the aboli
ton of the state game department
that does not cost the taxpayer cent
and the destruction of the cabinet form
of state government. Formerly he as
sailed the state constabulary. But
this thunder has been removed be-
cause every one of the three political
parties in Idaho has pledged the dis
continuance of this arm of state gov
eminent And, it is said, Alexander is
now convert to the wisdom of main
tanning a state police. Investigation
and conference with w. H. Hyatt,
head of the constabulary, convinced
Mr.. Alexander, according to report
that after all there is some good in a
state police.
But Mr. Alexander makes no tang
IDLE promises that the tax payer may
look to him for cutting state expenses.
There is nothing constructive in his
criticisms of the Republican admins
tration.
Perhaps Mr.. Alexander wants to re-
place the present individual heads OF
various state departments with boards,
going back to the old time stuff be-
fore state business was put on bust
ness basis Idaho is sick and tired
of paying travelling expenses for
state board members hither and yon
over the state on every little pretext
Idaho has no wish to go back to the
slow, cumbersome and inefficient way
of doing things that state boards make
inevitable.
As matter of fact, boards are more
expensive than individuals. In addi-
ton, they bring more sharply into
state business the blighting effect OF
politics. Mr.. Alexander hasn't said
that he proposes going back to the old
system, giving Idaho dozens of new
political machines that must greatly
exceed the number under his former
administrations to keep pace with the
greatly increased volume of state
business, But, inevitably, that must
be what he proposes to do. Idaho
wants none Of it.

THAT FARMER-LABOR
NCEl

Here's some comfort for employers
of strikers Whatever happens usually
helps them.
Henry Ford will close his factory
and discharge 10000 men. What will
those men do? Help the men on
strike? Not eactly. Many of them
will apply to the railroads for jobs
to help break the strike.
Thus the intelligence at the top is
able to manipulate the lack of it at
the bottom.
Recently Samuel Gompers predicted
that 100000 union men and 10000
900 farmers would unite to help each
other.
At present, for lack of coal and
transportation, caused by the strike,
canneries, cheese factories and cream
eries are closed down. FRUIT and vege-
tables are rotting on the ground and
transportation for grain threatens to
be inadequate. How many of the IA,
100000 farmers will sympathize with
coal miners and railroad workers on
strike? How many will do exactly the
other thing? If Mr.. Gompers thinks a
majority of the 100000 farmers will
sympathize with union labor, he does
mt know the 100000 farmers. Farm
ers are employers of labor,-Wash-
ington Times.

and then in its final gasp, passed
bill that is impossible. The most pre-
posterous thing that congress has done
is this attempt to wish off on the
country a big bill so farceful that il

Harding's message is clear cut. II
leaves no doubt but that the president
recognizes the claim of the former
service man, no doubt that executive
opposition to the bill is based on
economic grounds and faults in the
measure itself, rather than that the
president entertains any opposition tc
the general idea of adjusted compen-
sation.
Just as with strikes that have swept
the country this summer, it is true
of the World War veterans, the well
fare OF the nation comes first. And
with the nation clamoring for reduced
taxation and federal administration
doing its utmost to shave expenses, II
is hardly opportune to wish few
more billions in public debt on the
nation.
And yet it takes a courageous and
we think, unfair person who can argue
that service men are not entitled te
