ihrBeu neld Tor Initiative, and at the
same time reduce many Of the great
wastes OF over-reckless competition In
production and distribution. Those
VINO either congratulate themselves or
those who fear that cooperation Is an
advance toward socialism need neither
rejoice or worry. Cooperation In It's
current economic sense represents the
Initiative Of self-interest blended with
sense Of service, for nobody belongs
10 a cooperative who Is not striving
10 sell his products or services for
more or striving to buy from others
Tor less or striving to make his income
more secure. Their members are fur
nishlng the capital for extension of
their activities just as effectively as If
.tney dld 1t In corporate form and they
are simply transferring the profit prin-
clple from joint return to Individual
return. Their only success lies where
they eliminate waste either In produc-
uon or distrlbutiOn-and they can do
neither If they destroy individual initi-
alive. Indeed this phase Of develop
ment Of our individualism promises to
become the dominant note Of its TWEEN
tieth century expansion. But it will
thrive only In so far as 1t can con-
struct leadership and a sense Of sery-
Ice and so long as it preserves the In
itiative and safeguards the individual
lty Of its members.
The economic system which Is the
result Of our individualism is not a
frozen organism. 1t moves rapidly In
Its form Of organization under the i'm
pulse Of initiative Of our citizens, Of
growing science, Of larger production,
and Of constantly cheapening distrlbu-
ton.
A great test of the soundness of a
social system must be its ability to
evolve within Itself those orderly shifts
In its administration that enable it to
apply the new tools Of social, economic,
and Intellectual progress, and to eliml-
nate the malign forces that may grow
in the application of these tools. When
we were almost wholly an agricultural
people our form Of organization and
administration, both In the govern
mental and economic fields, could be
simple. With the enormous shift In
growth to industry and commerce we
have erected organisms that each gene
ration has denounced as Franken-
stems, yet the succeeding generation
proves them to be controllable and
useful. The growth Of corporate or
CARNATIONS, of our banking systems, OF
our railways, Of our electrical power,
of our farm co-operatives, Of our trade
unions, of our trade associations, and
Of a hundred others indeed develops
both benefcent and malign forces. The
timid become frightened. But our
basic social ideas march through the
new things in the end. Our dema-
gogues, Of both radical and standpat
breed, thrive on demands for the de-
struction Of one or another Of these
organizations as the only solution for
their defects, yet progress requires
only a guardianship Of the vital princi-
pies Of our individualism with it's safe
guard of true equality Of opportunity
In them.

BOY ROBBERS
Young Burglars Landed in
Jail by Eller; Held to
Answer to District Court
Prosecutor Ready to Dis
miss Charges If They Be-
have Selves in Meantime

Burglarizing the home of Prescott
ing Atty. r. 10. Fogg, while the pros
ecutor was absent on an eastern trip
George Hawley, 10, and Keith Palmer,
10, Los Angeles boys, found them
selves behind the bars Of the Idaho
county prison, Saturday night.
The burglary was committed about
three weeks ago, and was not dis
covered until the prosecutor returned
to Grangeville, last Thursday.
Fogg Shows Leniency
Instead Of vigorously prosecuting
the youths, however, Mr.. Fogg is de-
termined to be lenient with them, and
on Tuesday afternoon they were re-
leased by Probate Judge w. L. Camp
bell, on their own recognizance, pend
ing the fall term of district court,
October 8. The lads were freed on
recommendation of Mr.. Fogg, who is
disposed to keep the boys out of the
penitentiary, If possible.
The youthful burglars are under in
structions to report every Saturday
to Sheriff Eller, up to the time court
convenes and If, i'm the meantime,
their behavior is good, the prosecutor
announced he will recommend that !
charges against the lads be dismissed |
Camped at Auto Park
The boys drove to Grangeville from
California In an automobile, and |
sought work in the harvest fields.
They camped at the tourist park in
Grangeville The park is near the
Fogg residence, and while in camp |
they burglarized the place. They Sc

Clue to identity of the burglars was
obtained by Sheriff Ener, following
their attempt to sell the gun in
Grangeville. The sheriff arrested them
Saturday at the ranch of M. ]. Nc

employed.

America nine billions of dollars in tho

FLAYS RESERVE SYSTEM
"As the federal reserve board now
exists, 1t is within the power of seven
men, sitting in the city of Washing.
ton, or in the city of New York. to
raise or lower the price of every piece
OF property in the United States. If
Is power which should not be given
to any human being or set of homan
beings connected with any private in
terest."
Here a round of applause greeted
the senator. BOrah then took up the
question of freight rates to the west.
and said that the Panama canal was
the best possible regulator of freight
charges. He insisted that American
operated vessels be permitted free use
of the canal.
1--WE sell from % to 25 percent of
the products of our farms abroad" re-
sumed Senator Borah. "The difference
between what we sell at home and
what we sell abroad is the difference
between bankruptcy and success to
the American farmer.
EUROPE LOCAL QUESTION
1.-THE foreign questions are not cues
tons which confront solely foreign
people. They affect us locally"
The senator declared there existitwo
great foreign problems, the first being !
between France and Germany as to
the amount of indemnity Germany
must pay, and the second is the Rus
sian problem.

the senator, "and both these |
problems affect every farmer on this

The senator told of his senate bill
for an economic conference
between France and Germany. He
pointed to certain nations in Europe
icing today armed camps, and refer
ed to the French invasion of the
tuhr as not promoting peace ON the
ointment. Speaking on the French
ebt to America and the unlikelihood
its ever being paid, Senator Borah
eclared that if peace could be re-

dience, that there is any such thing

question is settled " He said that

After asserting that the United |

'The recognition of government

act that there is a government that

With it."
The senator said that in order to
