WASHINGTON-Miss Alice Paul,
vice president of the National Wo-
mans Party has written to Senator
Capper concerning the position OF
her group OF women regarding the
Capper Uniform Divorce Bill: "My
attention has been called to state
ment in one OF the papers to the
effect that the National Woman's
Party will oppose Senator Capper's 5
uniform marriage and divorce law !
am writing at once to say that the
Woman's Party has not taken any
action on the divorce bill which you
have introduced and the matter has
not even been brought before our
national board. The only stand that;
the Woman's Party has taken on the
question OF divorce is contained in
its Declaration of Principles adopted
last November as follows; The hus-
band shall no longer obtain divorce
more easily than the wife. but the wife
shall have the right to obtain divorce
on the same grounds as the husband y

HARD SCHEDULE
FOR COYOTES
Football Team to Have
But Few Holidays
Next Fall

College OF Idaho football athletes
face another hard schedule next sea-
son. While all games have not been
negotiated as yet, there is every likeli-
hood that the Coyotes will play seven
and perhaps eight games next fall.
Thus far the schedule looks like
this:
October 6-Idaho at Moscow
October l3-Gooding at Caldwell.
October 20-Open.
October u - Pacific University.
This game is scheduled for Fore I
Grove but may be played here again
this year
November 3-Utah at Salt Lake.
November l6-Pocatello Tech at
Pocatello.
Thanksgiving. Open with assurance
that either Montana State or William
ette will play here on that date. This
game may be staged in Boise, negotia-
tons having been undertaken to that
end.
No game is sought for the week end
preceding the Idaho Tech contest at
Pocatello. Any one of number Of
teams may be selected fer the only
other remaining open date, October 20.
The game with Idaho will be the
first time these two institutions have
met on the gridiron. Efforts were
made to obtain two-year contract,
but Idaho could not make such an
agreement. However, in lieu Of this
fact, the guarantee for the game at
Moscow was increased from 5000 to
$1,000 by the north Idaho school.
Anse Cornell, peppy little coach,
will probably be in charge of football
at the college again next fall.

That meat peddlers have taken ad-
vantage of Caldwell sale days to bring
their stuff to town and have it auction

that regular retail dealers cannot touch
was the further declaration OF the
speaker who asked the association
fdr protective suggestions. 1t was
pointed out that no ordinance could
prevent anyone selling stuff OF his
own production. That, declared the
speaker. was not the object OF this
fight. Dealers had no objection to
the disposition of such produce but
they do object to men buying stuff.

business concerns should be protect

Business conditions in Caldwell dur.

Very mild weather has prevailed for
the month. with considerable rain and
some snow that rapidly melted. in

too mild and wet as a rule for the best

Hay-The supply OF hay is stead

ever. that practically all ewes will be
lambed in feeding yards it will re-
quire a great deal more hay TO las,

the prospect of an early spring and
an early range OF new grass. The re
quirements are also quite large for the
season OF spring work and other stock
on the farms before the time for the
new crop of hay.
Grain-The local grown crops
of corn. oats and barley are quite
well sold out. The supply OF wheat
yet remaining with the grower is not
large and is generally being held for
a higher price than OF the present

NPo4atoes-There arc but very
limited shipments being made and have
recently noted an estimate that there

MAJORITY RULE POLITICAL PARTIES

Either there is a Republican party, which stands for certain definite principles, policies and traditions or there isn't. Either this is a government by political parties, or it isn't Either this is a country of majority rule, or if isn't. The time has come for the restoration of majority rule in political parties and in the nation. This means the abolition of the fiji buster in the Senate and the restoration of the party caucus in both branches of Congress. No political party can meet responsibilities with out assuming authority, and there can be neither party responsibility nor authority when minorties insist upon controlling malortos bv threats of disoyalty unless the minority is permitted to control the organization and the program of the party. No man who has sought election to Congress at the hands of a political party by the process of majority decision, should be permitted to enter party caucus except on agreement to abide by ma poritlv decisions as to organization. On mat ters of principle no majority can bind the con science of the individual legislator, If the question involved be one of conscience rather than of mere policy. But where an individual member of Congress wishes to bolt the decision of the majority he should do so publicly and on his own responsibility and thresh the mat ter out with his own constituents. Party lr- regulars have in recent years been presumlng too much on the party loyalty of men who belong to parties from conviction rather than as factonaists or from desire to use poltl- cal parties for the promotion of personal fads or as mere means of obtaining personal power There must be some give and take in these matters or political parties will be unbale to withstand the effects of minority usage. Ma iority government and representative govern ment must be restored in political parties and in the country or there is likely to be no party and perhaps no country left within the next few years.

CLEAR THE SIDEWALKS

A group of representatives from the Cordova Chamber of Commerce and the Cordova Daily Times took walk to the dock few days ago. There's nothing particularly surprising in that, the walk to the dock being the favorite and salubrious course by which the denizens of the town are wont to take their daily con stitutionals. The surprise consists in the fact that they got back alive. Rather than being a saubrious and health h-conductive occupation. designed for the peaceful and rhythmic accel eration of the circulatory system, that walk to the dock is just now an undertaking perl lous to life and limb, not to mention disas- trous to the disposition. That property owners and the city have not long since been made defendants in damage suits for violent and sudden deaths and permanent nJures to otherwise placid tempers, is due to little less than miracle. and not to any precautions in the way of making progress along that route either safe or sane. The heap of snow from six to dozen inches deep. packed hard by path barely as wide as a single foot and besot with hummocks and hollows, which extends from the head of First Street to the railroad tracks, is a way negotiable by nothing less agile than goat. The Cordova Chamber o' Commerce and the the Cordova Daily Times don't relish being anvbodv's goats. Neither does any other citizen, yet every resident of the town is compelled to walk that goat-path every time he goes to the dock, or strike out into the road, along with the horses and f1ivvors. Nobody wants to be a horse or a flivver. Under the bamv weather conditions of the past few days few good blows with shovel would open up the way for the rays of Old Sol, and the pack would soon be melted away. In the interest of safety and sanity that sidewalk to the dock and on a few other hillsides of the town-should be cleared of its accumulation of snow.

"SNUS" IS THE WORD!

Every newcomer to Alaska has much to learn--and unlearn. His common experience is likely to be that the more he discovers about the country the less certain he is that he knows anything about it. His mistakes will probably be many, and his safest bet is to expect to make them and to stand ready humbly to be corrected. It appears that the newcomer on The Times few days ago made an error in spelling familiar Alaskan word. It isn't the first one we've made, and prob ably won't be the last But just to show that we're ready to stand corrected the oc- casion is taken advantage of to acknowledge the mistake In an article on the subject of the extensive use of snuff, that popular re- freshment was naively referred to as "snoose.' The word never having been heard before, it was taken for granted to be slang expression, and the spelling was guessed at accordingly. It is now discovered that the correct word is "snus' "a perfectly good Nor wegian term for snuff, and should have been spelled thusly. The Times chechacho stands corrected, at the same time keeping two fling CTS carefully crossed against the imminent danger of making far more serious errors than one of spelling
