FARMER WOULD PAY
French Warns Against Govern
meDt Ownership.

eve had better get out Of bhsi-
ness as government rather than
get further into it," Representa-
tive Burton L. French recommend
ed to an audience at the Strand
theatre at Nampa, Oct. 9. Mr..
French, speaking under auspices
OF the Republican central commit
tee. took as his topic"Government
Ownership of Railroads"
The argument is being made to
win the votes OF railroad employees,
Mr.. French said, that government
ownership will mean higher
wages. This situation, he contend
ed can arise only if those who pay
the freight aud transportation
charges, in most cases farmess.
will meet the increase through
paying higher freight tariffs. fn-
evitably, he continued, government
ownership will mean higher freight
aud passenger rates, and the pro-
ducer is the one who will pay them.
People will pay more for their
tickets, and will travel less, ithe
speaker went on; merchants will
pay more freight on their goods,
and will add j, to the cost to tfe
purchaser.
1.-The farmer is the man wEo
will pay" Representative French
declared. "Look at the cost Of
blow or an automobile in Chicago
or Detroit and compare it with the
cost to you here in Idaho. tn
shows who pays the freight. Look
at the price you are getting fer
grain and fruit, and note the pfice
it is sold for in New York or
Chicago"
In service Of six years on a {
oou,e appropriations committee,
Mr.. French said, lie has found the
cost OF government management OF
enterprises more expensive thsn
private management.
AS proof that the present nation
al administration is economical
and is trying TO reduce the cost OF
government, the speaker cited tie
results of the budget system as
applied TO national expenditures.
Co-operatisn of the adminislra-
ton and congress, he asserted, re-
suited in reduction OF government
tai costs from So, 500, 900, 900 ior
the fiscal year ending June &c,
1920, to 50. 100, 900, 900 for the

FOREIGN BORN KEMPTON
MINERS CAUGHT IN RAID
Agents Asher, HopwOod and
Bittinger Arrested Six Alleged
BOotleggers Thursday Last

The following story of the arrest
of alleged moonshiners at Kempton
this county, on last Thursday, is taken
from the Friday mornings issue of
the Cumberlnd News:
Six foreign-born residents of Kemp
ton, small mining village on the
Western Maryland Railroad, who took
the phrase, "The Land of the Free"
too literally and felt free to manu-
facture the stuff that used to cheer
and now poisons, are the unwelcome
guests Of the city.
Prohibition Agent J. L. Asher. Jr.,
of Washington, D. c., and Deputies
Luther Hopwood and Bittinger left
this city at midnight Wednesday in
high-powered car and descended on
the mining town about Z o'clock yes
terday morning. From that time IN
til l o'clock in the afternoon the
officers visited IS homes and cap
tured six alleged moonshiners. MANY
others, thought to have been tipped
off, are said. to have poured out their
mash and hidden their stills away.
Great excitement prevailed during
visit of the raiders. Hopwood says
that he counted nine different lang
uages used by the natives, who are
for the most part foreign-born min
ers.
A number of the men captured
were in the mines at work when their
homes were raided and were appre-
hended when they came out at noon
for dinner. The officers first visited
the home of William NJ. Poveish,
where they found a 10 gallon still,
20 gallon still, 40 quarts of home
brew and half-gallon of alleged
moonshine. The home of Nick Cook
was entered next and a so gallon still
was in operation there. Three bar
rels of mash and IS gallons of alleged
liquor were also found at Cooks
home.
The three officers worked independ-
emily after leaving Cooks home in
order to cover more territory and
prevent other moonshiners from des-
troying evidence before the arrival
Of the officers. Deputy Hopwood en-
tered the home of Bike Rosovich,
where he found the mans wife and
son in the act of pouring out mash.
He found 30 gallons of wine mash
and so gallons of other mash in the
kitchen.
The officers found a beer-keg full
of wine mash in a bed room Of the
home of Mike Guley and three bar
rels of mash at the home of Tony
Dominic. Ten gallons of mash were
found at the home of Nick Tholoa.
The officers arrived in Cumberland
at five o'clock yesterday afternoon
and placed Cook, Guley, Tholoa and
Poveish in jail pending hearing be-
fore United States Commissioner
Themes J. Anderson. Dominic and
Rosovich were released on their own
recognizance and will appear for a
hearing with the other men.
Kempton lies partly in Garrett
county and partly in Grant county,
West Va, and is about rs miles South
of Oakland.

OPINION. TEAM
ISN'T WORRYING
BY JOHN }. McGRAW
manager of the New York Giants)
(Copyright, 1924, by United Press)

NEW YORK, Sept. 19-While [
do nci. care to make rash state
ment or predictions, can voice my
opinion about the National League
pennant race by saying that the
Giants are letting the other fell
lows do the worrying. / have had
confidence in the team since the
season started and there is no real
reason to waver on.
ball club. They have been through
places just as tight in the past three
years and they survived becaus
they were able to recover after ev-
,ry slump.
It is something for ball club
to keep its head up and its feet
steady in a slump when rival team
is charging through the league like
the Brooklyn club was. But the
Giants did that and they played
their gamest ball when the situa-
ton was the most serious
: The Giants have more of, a real
punch, harder punch in crisis
than the Robins or Pirates and it
is largely due to the ability of
one or two players to deliver III a
pinch that we have been able to
keep going.
The Giants pitchers are working
better now and they should i'm
prove in the final two weeks Of the
! pennant race. 1t is natural that
PLAYERS should be under such sus-
pension when they turn into the
final drive in such a close pe.lnant
race. Experience counted more
then than it did this year with the
Giants. The Giants have been IL
slumps but they have never been
in panic or danger of blowing
i up. They have all been confident
and of course, that made me conf
dent in them.

ROBINS-PIRA.TES
BEGIN A FINAL
TRIO OF BATTLES
Pirates Position is -Criti-
cal, Only Two Games
Behind Robins
BY HENRY L. FARRELL,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Sept. 49, Starting
the most important series of the
year in the National League, the
Brooklyn Robins and the Pittsburgh
Pirates battle across the bridge
this afternoon in the first of three
games that can make or break eth
er of the eentenders.
Half game behind the leading
Giants, the Robins have the oppor
tunity not only of overtaking the
champions, but of clinching Il less
desired second place by Knocking
the Pirates out o. the running.
The Pirates position is critical.
They are two games behind the
Robins and two and a half games
behind the champs.
The three games against Brooklyn
are only starter, however, as they
have to play three more games
against the Giants.
Unless they do as good as break
even in the six games, the Pirates
may find themselves, in the same
boat with the Detroit Tigers who
passed out of the American League
pnnnant race yesterday after the
Philadelphia Athletics had swept
the whole series away from them.
