erican shipping men meeting here
adjourned their conference today
after coming to an agreement or

Making Friends

President Harding is making a rea
hit on his trip across the continent
Everywhere he is being met with enor-
nous crowds. demonstrations of real
American enthusiasm Idaho is no cx-
ception. AT Pocztello the crowd was
so great that two prostrations from
heat occurred in the jam. And that
is decidedly unusual for Idaho. Al
Idaho Falls the largest crowd that has
greeted the president to hear a train
talk was on hand.
And everywhere, President Hard
ing's words rang true. He is not on a
political transforming tour but is Wis
iting Americans where they live,
bringing to them the message of
what the government is doing. And
his addresses arc sound. solid Ameri-
canism. stories of big things we'll done.
Whether It is taxation, prohibition. the
budget or what not. President Hard
ing strikes the popular chord.
America is learning to know its
president And the better we know
him, the better we like him.

The Price of Ignorance


Nearly 1000 years ago. someon,
said:
They know not what they do"
And in the year OF our Lord 1923
Caldwell citizens certainly exercised
that human prerogative, the determin.
alton to learn only from experience
to refuse to see and do as those who
know would have them.
Those who believe in the infallibili,y
OF the majority certainly must have re-
ceived wallop last Friday night when
go Caldwell voters squarely indicated
that they believe discounted deficiency
warrants, interest and subsequent war
rant redemption levies are preferable
TO continuation OF the cash basis OF
conducting city business.
For the council faces this altcrna.
tive, either they must keep expense
within 10 mills, let grass grow in the
streets, abandon the parks. leave the
streets without lights, abolish the po-
lice force, and cut the fire department
to the bone or they must continue on
something approaching the present
basis, issue deficiency warrants and.
one year hence as directed by law,
make redemption levy to pay off in
CURED obligations.
There is but one choice. We cannot
go back. And last Friday Caldwell
citizens, instead OF voting to keep
down taxes as they presumably be-
Iieved they were voting, actually voted
to increase the cost of city govern
ment
And high taxes certainly come hard
