: An explanation of the contrast
between Henry Ford's popularity
and the fate that has made it i'm
possible for Mr.. Rockefeller to as
pire to the humblest office is Of
s.fered by a political writer. Mr..
Ford "makes machines" whereas
sMr. Rockefeller only I'm a X e
money" Traditionally the Amer.
lean people have understood and
liked mechanics and distrusted
Hmoneybags. And there you are! But
this overlooks one vital element.
There was once a widespread be.
lief that Mr.. R~ockefeller's millions
ARE tainted" There has never beer
any question that they were &C.
.quired largely at the expense o1
weaker competitors. It is otherwise
with Mr.. Ford. He has ruined no.
body except unskillful m%anufactur
ters of more expensive ears. To al
sworkmen he is endeared by the
wages he pays. To the moderately
sweIl-to-do he has given the privilege
sof easy and cheap locomotion
among the literators of mankind he
is by no means the humblest.
Yet history, which Mr.. Ford de.
tspises, may conceivably show a Ger
tain preference for Mr.. Rockefeller
Born in an age of small business
Astounding in waste. he conceived {
new era, an era of greater wealth
for all achieved through large com
tbinations. AS truly as our forefath
ers who struck boldly into the west
fern Wilderness, he was a pioneer
and an empire builder. And whereaI

notable for liberaiity and wisdom
The Rockefeller Institute and tn,
Rockefeller Foundation bid fair t,
mark an era in philanthropy
Whether as a mechanic or as
Human being, MI. Ford is by far tn,
more sympathetic to the genera
run Of voters. But this fact lend
spoint to Lord Bryce's disillusione,
comment that, when choosing il
rulers, democracy shows small re
gard to originality in intellect.

APPLE HARVEST
NEARING CLOSE

This week will see practically all
the apples in this locality under
cover or rolling to market. 1t is
estimated that considerable more
than one-half of the crop is placed
in storage, some to be moved during
this month and next, and man.
carloads to be held with the hope oi
obtaining better prices later. So
far about 600 cars have been shipped
from Payette, Fuitland, New Pyl-I
mouth, Woods Spur and Crystal.
Practically no loss has been sus-
tanned for lack of cars, and but very
few have been shipped in box cars.
1t is really remarkable with the
heavy production, the growers have
been able 0 obtain cars to care for
the crop without loss. Many more
storage houses WIFI be built andiI
ready for the crop of 1924, the grow
ers are coming to learn that since
storage is so cheaply
built it is the only safe production
against loss.

the greatest flash of unrestrained
Joy over the world that history
records; the physical termination of
the greatest conflict in the annals OF
the universe; the abrupt ending OF
years of slaughter of human lives,
of the reckless spending OF money
for agents of destruction, of the
Gripping, manning, disgacing Of in
nocent women and children and the
wantou destruction of homes, fac
tories, cities, farms, museums and
art galleries. By reason of the sig
nificance OF this terrific change in
the tide OF affairs, November 11th
has come to mean one Of the greatest
holidays and days of rejoicing of the
world:
Therefore, I, I. r. Woodward,
Mayor of the City of Payette, Idaho,

conflict.

A DEAR DEER

]. H. Connyers and Mr.. Biggerstaff
returned home at A. NJ. last Fri
ay morning from two weeks hunt
ing trip on the Salmon. They were
successful in bagging one fine buck
but left him with the contents of
their camping outfit scattered on the
highway about eight miles north of
Payette as result of the second ac-I
cident on the way home. Mr.. Conn
yers is also nursing broken rib and
other bad bruises but considers him
self lucky that he escaped without a
broken neck.
They were making the trip in Mr..
Biggerstaff's Dodge touring car re-
turning by way of Council and when
making the Midvale hill about five
o'clock in the afternoon encountered
a head-on collision with big car
going down. No one was injured but
were detained until late hour in
the night while a mechanic from
Weiser replaced a broken wheel and
other temporary repairs and brought
them to Weiser where their luggage
was transferred to truck and they
were again started on their last lap
of the homeward trip at 1870 in the
morning with Mr.. Biggerstaff at the
wheel who was undoubtedly bearing
down a little heavy on the gas, when
the machine took flip-flop landing
on its side in the middle of the high
way, 1t being at late hour no cars
were passing and they were compell-
ed to make their way with consider
able difficulty to the Lesh ranch and
were brought to Payette by Mr.. Lesh.
Dr. l. r. Woodward was sum-
moned and rendered medical aid to
Mr.. Connyers who is nicely recover

court and fined one dollar for dis
obeying instructions.
On entering the room one was re-,
minded that it was a Pheasant feed
all right, for the entrance was filled
with tumble weeds and brush and
the table decorations were sage
brush and leaves. A program of music
and singing followed the banquet, |
and the boys from Payette declare
the event to be the most unique
and best carried out of any enter
tainment they have witnessed this
