Election Notice

for person whose name is not on the
ballot, he must write the name in the
blank space under the printed name of
the candidate for the office. The ballot
should not be marked in any other
manner. If the ballot be spoiled, it
| must be returned to the ballot clerk,
who must issue another in its stead
but no more than three to any one
voter. Five minutes time is allowed
in booth to mark ballot. Unofficial
ballot or memorandum to assist the
voter in marking his ballot can be
taken into the booth and RAY be used
to copy from. The ballot must not be
shown SO that any person can see how
it has been marked by the voter. Aft
er it is marked it should be folded so
that the inside cannot be seen, but SO
that the printed endorsement and sig
natures of the ballot clerks on the
outside may be seen. Then the voter
should pass out of the booth or COM
partment, give his name to the IN
spector in charge of the ballot box,
and pass out of the voting place. A
voter who declares to the presiding
officer that he is unable to read, or
that by any reason of any physical
disability he is unable to mark his
ballot, can have the assistance of one

same, to be chosen by the voter; and
if he declares that he is totally blind
he may be assisted by any person
chosen by him from among the legal
voters of the county. The presiding
officer may administer an oath in his
discretion, as to such persons disa-
bility. The following is facsimile

Our Weekly Letter
From Washington
BY James A. Frear. Nj. C.
written for last week.

The Agricultural bill passed the
House after several days discussion.
A few years ago the Agricultural
Department was given slight con-
sideration. When Uncle Jerry Rusk
Of Wisconsin took over the Depart
ment it was an experiment that was
without rtdder or sail but today the
entire country is centered on the ac-
tivities of a branch of Government
that represents the farm interests of
the land. The Army and Navy bills
due to war enlargement have each
been around the $400,000,000 mark
annually, although drastic cut is
due next year through the peace con-
ference. Less than ten per cent OF
the amount required for either the
Army or Navy is covered by the Ag-
ricultural bill but that ten per cent is
spent to help develop better farm
production and benefit the country
whereas large war expenditures in

value because of rapidly changing
methods of offense and defense.
Harry Slattery, former Secretary
of the Pinchot conservation move
ment spoke last Friday at the Ebbit
Hotel to large meeting of men and
women held by the National Popular
Government League. Slattery criti-
c;sed Secretary of the Interior Fall
for seeking to break down the con-
servation administration now being
carried out by Secretary of Agricul-
tUre Wallace. Probably no man is
better informed than Slattery of the
inside of the conservation movement
and he quoted Secretary Falls form
CT votes in the Senate and attitude
ir the Cabinet in opposing genuine
protection to government resources.

The writer was asked to fill the role

law of the land. His arrangement of
Secretary Fall was aided by Con-
gresham Woodruff of Michigan and
others present Bills to transfer the
bureau have been introduced in the
House and are supported by Secre-
tary Fall but opposed by Secretary
Wallace which indicates a split in the
Cabinet of rather large proportions.
President Harding, it is understood,
refuses to take sides.
The Muscle Shoals water power for
which Henry Ford and other parties
have offered bids is matter of daily
discussion at one or the other end of
the Capitol and Secretary of War
Weeks has made no report to Con-
gress as to the effect Of rival bids.
II has been urged that the plant will
be used to manufacture fertilizer and
will reduce the cost to the consumer
which is an end desired by all except
ing the fertilizer trust, as it is known
but no decision has yet been made
between bidders. The Government
put nearly s80,O00,O0O in the plant
during the war as / now remember
the figures for war purposes and now
it is trying to realize something out
Of the investment although the return
to the Treasury will be small, from
indications.

Florida for ten days rest and re.
creation. When in Washington he is
besieged with visitors and applicants
for positions and has to wrestle will

the unnecessary killing of dumb ami
anls.
At any rate, it is well to give some
thought to this matter, for, aside
from the destruction of animal life,
needless killing is demoralizing to
human character.
Whatever man does reacts upon
himself, His environment, his occu-
patton, his acts, all leave their inn
print upon him. 1t is for this reason
that he who persists in unnecessarily
taking life will dull the finer sensi-
bilities of his soul and will deaden
those qualities which elevate him
above the brute
Man is born with certain inherent
impulses of refinement and charac.
ter. These will develop if given OPP
portunity. They may also be des-
troyed by the aggression Of the
coarse and cruel. The lust to kill is
such an aggression.
1t is also breeder of crime. Care
less and unnecessary killing is the
forerunner of many tradegy, 1t
causes a general disregard for life
and makes its destruction less shock
ing. To the youth who is frequent
witness thereto there is no more con-
taminating example.
Then there is something to be said,
also, concerning the economic and
other losses sustained in needless
killing, especially with reference to
wild animals. When we exterminate
them we are unmindful of the rights
and happiness of others and of the
future generations. The destruction
of wild life is appalling, at the pres
emit rate it will soon be gone. Man
will have destroyed it. His ingenius

Then all ordinary laws of economic
cause and effect go out of office and
the soldier is the boy relied upon to
keep the home land functioning as it
ought to function normally. When ne
is needed for this economic rrpose
he is invaluable because withol. him
all values would go to pot.
If the German soldier had been able
to carry through the plans Of the
German military leaders the German
mark would not be a beggar on the
door step of financial solvency and if
ne had been able to do the super
human, which was required of him,
Uncle Andrew MELONS fortune might
be barely equal to square meal.
The difference between the value
of the dollar and the value Of the
mark is now the sacrifices made by
the American soldier. He created
that value. If he had not done SO it
would have no value. The only rea-
son these men of wealth have wealth
is because American soldiers deter
mined that deprecated currency
should be in Germany and not in the
United States.
To whom would Uncle Andrew like
to pay small percentage Of his
money? To the American soldier
who saved him from the German tax
collector or to the tax collector?

CITY Paving WORK
RESUMED FRIDAY
ROCK CRUSHER is REPAIRED AND
MACHINERY PUT IN MOTION
AGAIN

Work on the city paving projects
which has been held up since Mon
day morning because of a break III
the stone crusher at the south enc
of town was resumed Friday morn
ing and is going at full speed, accord
ing to announcements made by Off
cials of the city
Work was halted when a bearing
and an arm of the rock crusher broke
shortly after work had begun Monday
morning. The repairing of the ma
chinery necessitated a slight layoff OF
the men employed on the crusher and
in the paving work.
Some difficulty has been experienc-
ed in getting employees on the city
paving projects because of the in
ducements rail companies are offer
ing laborers in the railroad centers.
The situation looked serious, in the
city a few days but the crisis is over
and construction progressing nicely.
The advanced stage of the harvest
season is also proving very beneficial
on the paving construction in the city.
With the gradual release Of men from
the farm work there is larger supply
of labor accumulating for the other
enterprises of the community.
With the exception of the one strike
during the early summer, the paving
enterprise of the city has gone along
smoothly At that time a number of
from Spokane laid down
their tools under the leadership of a
worker from the outside
and held up operations for q short
space.
Since then the work has been al
most entirely by local labor and fric-
ton Of the nature of strike has
ceased to exist, although there has
been some difficulty of retaining work
ers because Of attraction offered in
other fields.
The paving work is rapidly near
ing completion. Most of the body
rock Of the pavements in the differ
snt sections has been laid and the
liner rock laying next to the macad-
sm is being put in as fast as it can
be supplied
1t is believed that all the construc
ton undertaken by the city for the
present summer will be completed
early this fall if no other serious diff
'iculties arise to block the progress
# the construction.

KU KLUX KLAN FACTOR
IN TEXAS PRIMARY

Dallas, Texas, CA. F. 1.-The Ku T<lu1
Klan, Federal Reserve Banking Sys
TEN, the Volstead act, transportation
problems and rates, and to a lesser
degree attitude toward labor and
farmers, clearly have become issues
in the Democatic campaign for the
nomination for United States senator
from Texas. The second primary to
finally name the party's nominee will
be held next Saturday, August &c.
James E. Ferguson, former COVER
nor has made known his friendlinoss
to legallizing light wines and beer
He also has declared opposition to
the Ku Klux Klan. Among his pleas
for support is that he is friend of
organized labor and the farmers. he
attacks his opponent Earle B. May
field, state railroad commissioner,
charging that Mr. Mayfield is a
Klansman, and has the support OF
members of that order. Mr.. Mayfield
maintains that the Klan is not an
issue.
Mr. Ferguson is antagOnistic to the
Federal reserve banking system, ard
frequently, in his addresses, l,lames
it for financial difficulties.

transportation problem and rates as
needing more attention from con-
gress than the federal reserve svs-
tenn. He declares the rates are too
high, and that the rate making powers
should be restored to the states.
Opening the campaign after the
July % primary, Mr.. Ferguson con-
fined his remarks concerning the Ku
Klux Klan almost entirely toward Mr..
Mayfield. Later in his campaign,
however, he asserted candidates seek
ing nomination for certain state Of
ffces had the support of the Klan,
and suggested that voters opposed to
the Klan should cast their ballots
against the men here named. Among
those thus attacked by Mr.. Fergu-
son was Ed. r. Bentley, candidate
for the nomination for superintend-
ent of public instruction. Anti-Klan
votes should go to S. M. N. Morris OF
Travis county, and against Mr.. Bent
ley, Ferguson asserted.
The August 26 primary, kn wn as
the run off, will finally decide the
nominees in those races in which no
candidate received majority of the
total vote July %.

SOUTH IDAHO EDITOR
VISITS NORTH IDAHO

L. B. Jeness, proprietor Of the
Weiser Americana stepped in the city
Friday on his way home from the re-
publican state convention at Wallace
this week. On his way home he is
visiting the different sections of the
north Idaho country
1T is my first trip to this end of
the state" said Mr.. Jeness, "and l
am surely getting better idea of what
the north half of the commonwealth
I is like. Although have been in the
newspaper game in the south state
country for years, have never before
had the privilege of visiting this Sec
tion,
"The trip has been revelation.
Many of us Of the south state country
know that considerable numbering and
mining is done up here but we have
no idea OF what it is like In fact
I have known about as much about
the section as do about South Africa.
IT am certainly pleased with the
country I knew that mining was
big industry at such places as Wall
ace and other points, but it took an
actual trip to the section to make the
situation real to me.
''For more than 40 years the mines
at Wallace have been in operation,
supply the state with money, provfd-
ing men with work and making for
the general upbuifding Of the coun-
try Just what that amounts to
new feel better able to comprehend
as result of my trip.
Prom Moscow I am going to the
Lewiston country and other points in
this section and then motor back to
Weiser by way of the Salmon river
highway. I expect to spend several
days at New Meadows, fishing and va
cationing."
While in the city Mr.. Jeness visited
the university and other points ct in
terest. He expressed himself as very
impressed with the territory
in the Inland Empire.
Mr.. Jeness is father of Randolph
E. Jeness who formerly attended the
University of Idaho. He stated that
Randolph would probably take a
in journalism at the college in
Des Moines, Iowa.
