WE ARE PROTECTING
CRIMINALS.

Failure to punish a crook for a
crime is actual protection, whether we
always call it that or not One right
don't correct a wrong. A man that is
caught is usually ready to do the right
thing to get out of trouble if it is pos
sible.
MacRea came to American Falls to
make some easy money. He made it.
He fortunately was caught in Poca-
tello and had his earnings still in his
pocket. He returned all but five dol
lars of the money to those whom he
defrauded out of it and wat released
on HIS own bond. In other words he
was told that he was free but that if
he left the county he would owe the
county 800. In other words he was
informed that the best thing for him
to do was to leave town.
The prosecuting attorney had a
clear m-isdemeanor charge against the
slicker. He could have earned $500
in fines for the county or if guilty the
check artist could have been given a
go or 80 day jail sentence as punish
ment. But instead he goes scot free
with encouragement to commit the
same crime some other place.
Technicalities can be ~interposed.
The statutes can be misinterpreted and
justice can be cheated. The public
pays the bills,

/ SURE SUPPORT.

Human hearts turn to God for sup
port, for s~ustenance, when a young
mother is chilled by death. Farley
Griswold was thirty nine, in the full
glory of womanhood and motherhood,
mistress Of a divinely happy home,
guardian of two most promising boys,
companion of a loving husband, and
the distinct pride of many brothers,
sisters, and relatives, when her life
was ended.
There is a mystery about death that
battles human thought. At such times
1t is well to seek refuge in Christ
whose inspired words have enlightened
and sustained civilization for 1922
years.
The eternal God is thy refuge, and
underneath are the everlasting arma.

KEEPING UP THE
CAMP.

The old saying that tits outside
money that keeps up the camp" is al
most as true today in Idaho as "in the
days of old, the days of gold" We
cannot eat our surplus. We cannot
eat off each other all the time. There
must be new investment and contin-
ued outlets and added population.
The American way is the growing
not the ~stand-still, way. Being sta
tionary in this country, and especially
in partially developed territory, means
slipping the clutch if not going into
reverse.
Recent gatherings in this state have
italicized the de~sirability and the pos
tive necessity of securing added in
vestments, which would mean more
population; and, in passing, it should
be recalled that added population does
spell lower taxation, the sage sayings
of theorists to the contrary notwith-
standing, for the reason that added
population produces more wealth.
One man owns 100 acres, assessed val
uation $50 per acre at 5 per cent taxes
equals $400, Put three more on that
tract, or 40 acres for each of the four,
and value it at $100 per acre or $4,000
for each, at 5 per cent equals $500 for
each. The $50 acre tract is worth
twice as much to the public as a mat
ter of tax value, each 40 produces pro-
portionately considerably more wealth,
there are four families to one before
and each doing better than the one
with the larger tract because of the
new capital that makes possible more
intensive and more diversified farm
ing. But investment first, for that
means more payrolls and more mar
kets.
Capital investment can be kept out
much easier than it al be brought in.
1t seeks the more desirable fields for
present and future profits and, as the
profits are projected into the future,
as in the cas- of anew territoy like
Idaho, with sparse population, so it is
more difficult to secure the capital.

GO GET OUR
MAYOR.

Every effort should be made to To-
cate Mayor Sprigg of American Falls.
He has left a dirty trail behind him
that affects the honor of a town, of a
city council, and a host of friends. A
score of creditors are paying his way
out of the country and hundreds of
taxpayers will pay his way back if he
is found.
The fact that he is mayor should not
effect the wheels of justice. Indeed
it should urge them to a faster gait.
If those in high places are exempted
from righting their wrongs, those in
the lower places may we'll sheer at the

Unfortunately, complaints are often
not filed until after the guilty mes

"cod Be with Ye."

As a matter Of fact we English
speaking folk have a word to say at
parting which means a lot. "Good-by"
Is a contraction of God be with ye,"
but not one person in a million thinks
of this when using it. While we may
not object to our butcher having divine
guidance, the wish is certainly not

Name Traced to Bullock.

Although there does not seem to be
any connection between the two words,
yet beef and Bosphorus are related.
The strait was so named according
to n story because a bullock (Latin
Dos, Greek bous) swan that body Of
water. Beef is derived through boeuf
from hos, the ~accusative case of which
is bowen or bouem.

Windows once raxsd

Just as bathtubs we're once legIs-
lated against and heavily taxed, so were
windows In Europe, in olden times,
classed as a luxury; each square
inch of a window being required to
pay a heavy tax to the state. Even
now there are many buildings in Bu-
rope which were built under these con-
ditions, where windows are chiefly con-
spicuous by their absence.

GOLF.

Golf is played mostly by men past
thirty, forty and fifty Younger men
and youths find it too slow. They also
find it too difficult to play. 1t re-
quires mental effort to enjoy golf. It
also requires concentration for long
periods of time. This ability comes
more with maturity.
Men past thirty, forty and fifty are
the ones that really want knowledge.
We force information of children when
they don't want it.; when they should
be playing out doors. And in aheir
old age, when men ought to be get
ting information we find them chasing
a little white ball around with a club
in their hands. The children should
be playing golf and the men should be
going to school.

RECORD GOLD SHIPMENT.
$35, 100000 in Precious Metal
Comes Here From Russia
via Sweden.

New York, June 14--Thc largest
single shipment OF gold bullion ever re-
ceived in the 'nitcd States arrived Mon
dav from Denmark. 1t amounts to be-
tween 81. O0O, 900 and s37 .o00, 900, and
was brought on the steamship frederlk
VIII. of the Scandinavian american Line.
The bulk of tho bullion was consigned
to the National Bank of Commerce,
which had made no previous announce
ment that such shipment was coming
TO this country.
The gold is part and the largest
part p vast flood of precious metal
which has filtered into tho depository
of the United States from the Scandi-
navian countries II comes from Den
mark, but prior 10 it's passage through
that country for the port of exit, Copen-
hagen, came from Sweden. The origin
of the gold, according to the ships Of
licers. is entirely unknown, but it prob
ably is safe TO say that il was Russian
or is Swedish gold taken from the minis
of that country in exchange for Russian
unmarked metal deposited therefor.
There is no doubt expressed by bank
ers in the financial district that large
amounts of Russian gold have thus
been received in the United States and
now reposc in the Subtreasury and
Assay Office vaults.
