A Wise Bill

One OF the insignificant bills. so far
as publicity is concerned, that seems
certain to be written into the Idaho
statutes. has all the carmarkS OF de-
sirable measure. II is the bill which
proposes that one registration shall
be sufficient for a resident in any pre-
cinct 10 entitlc him to vote at all cleo
lions. Registration transfers can be
obtained from precinct to precinct but
in the event one voter leaves one Ida
no county for another, registration
will again be required.
This is common sense. To-day we
have registration as one of the COM
plicating pieces Of election machinery.
We register for city elections, for gen.
eral elections. for bond elections, for
special elections. And every time the
taxpayer foots a healthy bill to obtain
a list OF voters that has been dupli-
Gated innumerable times before.
Registration has been something in
the nature of political sop. Twenty
hive cents goes with every name tina,
is obtained. We sign our name on the
dotted line, time after time. simply be-
cause we have the habit. There is no
other reason. And we foot a bill ev-
cry time that in the aggregate is stag
gering.
If the Seventeenth Legislature does
nothing else. this law, il the bill be-
comes law, will be justification suf-
hcient for the session.

well as an airplane. Ordinary mail
could not. on the whole, pay the pos
tage that would be required to make
air mail service self-supporting. But
as a result OF experience we shall de-
velop a mail service that will be OF
great value to communications where
speed is a prime consideration. The
air mail service has its chief value at
present not in the actual carrying OF
mail. but in the training of men in
the operation of airplanes, in the dis
covery OF better methods and the de-
velopment OF better mechanisms. The
men who are engaged in this work are
rendering a great service to the ma
ton and to the world.

Agitators Hate Work

Clamors for the freeing of "politi-
cal prisoners" appear to have borne
some fruit. though probably Tot in
the way the ardent advocates OF such
policy desired President Harding
act in committing the sentences OF
eight members of the /. w. w. to ex-
pire at once on the condition that they
leave the country and never return is
clemency with strong string attach
ed. Possibly those granted this free
dom may prefer it to remaining in
prison. but we imagine they are dis
appointed in that they are not per-
mitted to stay here and shine rs mar
tyrs in the cause of attempting to SUBJ
vert the government. "Wobblies"
thrive only where there is plenty and
they can live without working. When
they are deported they may find con-
ditions in some other lands not so ia
vorable for life OF ease with good /
food thrown in. And they NAV leave
prison here only to land in Jail some
where else. In shipping the unsavory
bunch out OF the country we shall
gain that much. though it may be at
he expense of other lands. Possibly
hey will join their prophet, big
Bill Haywood, in Russia, the most
tiing place for them-Pittsburg Ga

Abolish Tax Free Securities.

The farmer who desires relief from

the movement to restrict the exemp-
ton OF bonds from taxation. The
popularity OF tax free securities has
encouraged public works of an unex.

wealth into channels which cannot be
taxed. has in turn increased the bur-

Invisible Balances

The fact that hall the gold OF the
world is in the United States is OF
slight consequence IN considering the
ability OF the allied governments to
pay their debts to this country. The
flow OF wealth from the United States
to Europe Is greater than the stream
in the opposite direction. The bal
ance OF trade as measured by the
goods passing in and out OF our ports
is in our favor. bu, when we consider
the invisible exchanges between Eu-
rope and the United States and the
indirect exchanges represented by
American commerce with British,
Freoh. and other colonies, il Is found
that we are actually paying more
money abroad than is being paid 10
us That situation will very soon be
reflected in wider distribution OF |
gold. and long before the expiration
Of the debt paying period there will
be an ample gold supply in Europe
with which to meet the obligations.
There Is just one way to avoid
'truih-in-fabrio' legislation. Give MS
truth in fabrics. No one wants the
legislation; everyone wants a fair deal. |
Too many restrictions have already |
been written into our statutes. Blu, !
the better policy you'd be to so con
duet business THAI laws regulating it
are not necessary.
