Not sven a Whimper

Our Nampa contemporary. The Free
Press seems to have forgotten all
about its assertion that the board of
county commissioners had not sold
bonds that have not even bee voted
as yet. The Free Press lost no time
IN climbing on the band wagon when
the subject was first mentioned. But
publication OF evidence that cannot be
evaded seems to have reduced the
Nampa paper to a state Of utter
speechlessness
SO far as The Tribune can find. that
contract makes no provision for non
delivery Of the bonds if the election
fails. One wonders just where the
commissioners can fulfill the contract
II Canyon county voters do not ap-
prove the bond issue. Perhaps The
Free Press. relying on its magma
ton can answer that question.

THE MODERN NOVEL

The modern novel is a modern men
ace to modern youth. The so-called
~literati are Directing to censorship OF
their novels and productions. They
must submit to censorship or to COM
plete extinction. The people are not
going to tolerate such infamous, in
sinuating, disgusting pifflc.
Men are writing who are evidently
under some other spell than that OF a
moral conscience or a sense of their
responsibility. They are writing sole
" for the dollars they receive.
No man of brains with a heart and
soul in him would attempt to turn
two or three books a year.
The novels that are being written
deserve harsh words-words that
would put them in a classification in
disgust could properly be ex-
pressed. They are unfit for the wo-
men and children OF today TO read.
They are doing more than any other
TO corrupt womanhood, to de-
siroy youth, and to lionize men who
ought TO be in the sulphuric regions

Immediately took up the question with
the Oregon Short Line and within "A

This extension will apply only to

When Trouble Stops

Thee are troubled times. Once in
a while you find a moral coward who
wants to get away from it all, who dis
likes to face the music, who isn't man
enough to realize that such times as
these bring out the moral fibre that
you may possess.
Easy times are decadent times.
Hardship builds races Human con-
tact becomes more sympathetic in
times like these because it is more
necessary. Forbearance is a blessing
that good times grovel into the dirt.
Golfers puts the same thing like
this:
Nobody in Gold Mountain. Col
orado. is kicking about the streets,
the public utility companies, the
city hall, the churches or boot
leggers. There rs nobody in Jail.
There are no persons needing
charity. The schools are fully Ca
pable OF handling all the pupils.
There is a surplus in the treasury.
And there are no politicians, no
quarrels between capital and la
Dor. Fine little city. you say? Not
at all. The reason for this peculiar
condition of affairs is that nobody
now lives in Gold Mountain. Just
the other day the last citizen
moved on, and the once thriving
community joined the other ghost
cities of the west.
When your town gets so there is
nothing to argue about you'll pro-
badly find that the folks have all
gone.
