MERIDIAN EDITOR COMMENTS

'There is not one of the party of
about one hundred citizens from south
Idaho who are not Immensely pleased
with the cordially of the people of
Grangeville and it is a fitting climax
to a Series of popular receptions dur
ing the 200-mile journey along the
North and South highway" said John
f. Baird, of the Meridian Times. Mer-
idian is the home of the big purple
prune and in one of the best agricul-
tural districts in the state, and is I'M
der the Arrowrock dam.
Continuing Mr.. Baird said: "That
all south Idaho is interested is evil
denced by the fact that Mr.. and Mrs.
Byrd TregO drove their car 400 miles
to Boise to join the caravan, and
Cal White, IS years old and founder
of old Meadows, and Tom Rannihan,
veteran stage driyer, came along and
are enjoying every minute. We are
proud to have Governor Moore and
Congressman French with us. These
are only two of the numerous other
incidents of the occasion. There is
a hospitality of the people living a.
long this highway that is appreciated
by the stranger. We have only one
wish that the completion of this won
derful scenic highway will not only
be an advertisement to the world of
the finest Scenery in the United States,
but that it will be a material help to
Grangeville and and other communi-
ties, and that they will be prosperous
and happy. / thank you.

terance or any act of Mr.. Coolidge's.
dent Harding. No attempt to argue
that Fall, DENLY, Daugherty and
Forbes are fairly small matter. No
counter-attack upon the Democrats
for uncovering the facts. No scan
dalous effort to identify the Harding
Coolidge cabinet with America" But
instead, fortnight acknowledge
ment that under party government
is is the business of the opposition
to expose corruption and incompe-
tence. Instead of partisan abuse of
the Democrats, a patriots thanks for
n very great service done to the ma
ton. Instead of a desire to dodge
embarrassments by the use of pre-
texts, as in the case of DENLY and
Daugherty, the call for a reckoning.
Through constitutional and lawful
means, with due regard for orderly
methods under government of law,
but in searching and remorseless
fashion, let us make this hour of
reckoning n memorable one.
That may disqualify Senator Borah
as the keynote orator of the Cleve-
land convention. But it qualities him
highly as the keynote orator of that
great central mass of the American
people who, regardless of party, are
looking for somebody TO rise above
the tortuous pretext and lame opol-
ogy and express the anger of honest
men at the sordid betrayal Of ma.
tons interests.
That anger is no doubt distressing
to people who admire Mr.. Coolidge
for his many excellent qualities. But
it is an anger without which no re
public can long survive intact, fol
popular government depends at the
bottom upon the remorseless ano
swift punishment of those who sell
out their trusts. 1t is anger which
Mr.. Coolidge should have expressed
by facing the issue of corruption and
incompetence in his cabinet squarely
and directly. For political reasons
and for lack of resoluteness he fun
bled the issue, and today he finds
himself in the unhappy position o.
sponsor Cor Senator Pepper.
Mr.. Borah. then, as so often before
in this administration, stands alone
with God and the people.

that the first successful attempt at
the building of wagon road to con-
meet different sections of the state by
appropriations from the public treas
ury occurred in 1889 when the terri
torial legislature provided funds for
the construction of a wagon road
from Salmon Meadows in Washington
county to Mt. Idaho in Idaho county.
And it is worthy of note that the orr
ginal tentative draft of that wagon
road bill introduced and pushed to
passage by an Idaho county represent
alive, Hon. Cassius M. Day, was out
lined in the back room, the card room
if you please, of Charles B. Woods
saloon in this town of Grangeville.
1t is not long since there We're but
two wagon roads within the limits of
our present state. They followed
lines of least resistance, their beds be-
ing little changed from Natures lay
ing. One of them, to the south, fol-
lowed the Artemesian valley of the
Snake river and was the way by which
agricultural settlement was brought to
the Northwest. The second, in the
north, was born of military necessity
and threaded the. canyons and passes
of the Occur d'Alene range. The Ore
gon Trail and the Mullen road along
which travel toiled at ten or twelve
miles day were vital factors in the
conquest Of the wilderness Of the Co
lumbia Basin a short SO years ago
now they are hardly more than men,
cries. They have been replaced by
splendid highways on which autos
speed at twenty thirty, fifty miles an
hour, and their courses are paralleled
by transcontinental railways. Greater
yet, what the hardy and optimistic
pioneers of that early day deemed an
impossibility has been accomplished
and today witnesses the official open
ing of a magnificent thoroughfare, the
Idaho North and South road, which
connects the two primitive routes that
were used before Idaho was

THE VOICE OF BORAH
New York World.

Mr.. Coolidge's spokesman. Senator
Pepper, has had his answer He has
had it not from a Democrat but from
a Republican, from regular Republi-
can. from Republican who has never
bolted the party. He has had it from
Senator B0rah. He has had it in
words so straight and hard that even
the Times and the Herald-Tribune
should now be able to tell the differ
ence between mealy-mouthed inertia
about the Washington scandals and
a resolute patriotic will to purge the
government of the sinking, secret,
sordid enemy which has been at work
in our midst"
The World earnestly commends
Senator Borah's speech on Sunday to
the president, the managers of the
Republican party and to the journal
ism of pooh-pooh and tut-tut. They
will find in it a model for honest men
TO follow in time when confidence
in government is seriously shaken.
They will find in Senator Borah the
healthy Indignation of man who
thinks that the existence of corrup-
ton is a greater evil than the con-
fusion which results from exposing it.
They will find no support for the
theory that treachery and stupidity in
high places should be passed over
lightly because the investigators have
made mistakes. They will find no
support for the theory that corrup-
ton and incompetence are any the
less heinous because they have been
exposed by the opposition party; or
that scandal should be hushed up be-
cause it is bad for the stock market.
On the contrary, they will find in
Senator Borah just exactly that in
sistence upon the essential moral
truths of the whole business which
they have never yet found in any ut

DELAY IN ROAD WORK

Likewise as the construction of the
great national waterway was delayed
by many diverse and conflicting ma
tiOnal and international interests so
the building of the roadway to facili-
tate intercourse between the opposite
sections of the state was impeded.
The commercial rivalry of neighbour
ing states encouraged sentiments of
encouragement among our people
political expediency often fomented
domestic jealousies that were as use
less as they were unworthy of loyal
citizenry; competition between rail-
ways crossing the northern and South
er'n sections was also an element to
breed discord in the state; and re-
gretably, the press of the state con-
tributcd not little TO the feeling of
sectionalism, in the relations of
north and South Idaho, by fostering
pr0vincialism rather than state pride.
Each locality as respects its news
papers has almost ignored the other
except as a jibing paragraph might
sometimes be INDUCED in. 1t is but
right that the press of the state even
at this late day bring forth fruits
meet for repentance and through its
editorial association sponsor the event
that witnesses in Idaho the introduc-
ton of the Ezra of good feeling"

There are several reasons why this

S Can't Idaho for they have long been
socopnized as distinct, sometimes as
antagonistic sections, but central Ida
So which is practically co-extensive

central Idaho has been neutral ground
Oot much affected by the extremes of

snnropriate that at this time when
We seek to bring all sections OF the

be in such an environment.
WORK FOR BETTER IDAHO

Of a composite structure and it is
proper that our working plans should
be outlined here where the name in
all its fullness was first applied west
Of the Rocky Mountains. This coun-
ty, having, Grangeville as its official
seat was designated "Idaho" by act
of the Washington territorial legisla-
ture before Congress created Idaho
Territory. Right it is that the work
of making a perfect Idaho should be
initiated where. the Idaho germ was
first planted.

the ceremonies to occur today to say

was as different as the purposes for
which those ways were originally
viewed out. Agriculture with its at
tendant stock raising soon became
dominant in the sun kissed plains
bordering the Oregon Trail while
where the Mullen road cut its way
through the forests and mineralized
mountains the mining and timber In
dustries lead all others.
Guaged by their native resources
the northern and southern regions
supplement each other to make a per-
feet whole. The products of each
are essential to the welfare of the
other; together, they form an econo-
mic unit self sustaining and independ-
emit. But nature placed between these
interdependent regions what was long
thought to be an impossible barrier,
the rugged Salmon river mountains.
AS settlement and development pro-
crossed the tides of commerce flowed
freely east and west through northern
and southern channels, but, despite
their mutual attractions, confluence
OF the currents was prevented by the
mighty dyke of granite that separated
them. Far seeing men had visions. of
a physical connection of these com.
peting trade routes but as with the
dream of joining the waters of the
Atlantic and the Pacific there was a
weary waiting time ere realization
came. Just as the eastern and west
ern seaboards of the United States
are brought together now by the Pan
anna Canal, so the northern and south.
ern parts of this state are linked to
each other by the Idaho North and
South road. What the canal has been

and F terminals are wired to cor
responding contacts on the bases to
prevent reversed connections as the
transformers are moved from socket to
socket
The sockets consist Of pieces Of
formica or bakelite cut slightly larger
than the transformer bases. On each
of these are fastened four binding
posts and four "Rasco Societies"
(small size). If the "Sockettes" can
not be obtained, cord tip jacks which
will accommodate stop pins or the ar
rangement shown In Fig. 2 may be
used.
To avoid placing the transformers In
the sockets incorrectly, do not arrange
the contacts in a square or rectangular
formation, but place the primary con-
facts closer together than the sec
ondary contacts.
This idea is also useful in making
comparative tests between different
transformers. and also the best posi-
ton in the circuit for different radio
transformers.

found In no other loop performs the
unique duty Of controlling the potential

eliminating the usual potentiometer,

Other Kinds Of Loops.
Another type Of loop, Of the pancake
type, which will afford interesting food
for thought is shown in Figure 8. This
loop was experimental with by Fl. G..
Silbersdorff of Jersey City, N. j., and
has the added feature of being able to
not only rotate on its axis but can be
tipped to any desired angle as well.
Experiments with the use Of a reson-
ance wave coil led up to the loop in
its present form, and It was found to
have certain defined advantages over
the average loop. 1t seems to at least
partly solve the great summer question
of signal to static ratio. When tipped
at certain angles the static Is weaker
and the signal stronger. The theory
is as follows: II radio waves travel
parallel to the surface of the earth
and static disturbances travel In q
more or less perpendicular path to 1t
the adjustment Of the pickup coil can
be so arranged to pick up most radia
waves, which is at such an angle that
it will pick up a minimum Of static
waves.
The crossarms of the loop measure
IS inches each and the outer frame
work pieces measure 1874 inches each.
Thirteen turns are made, which are
spaced three-eighths Of an inch apart
C-shaped brass angle pieces are
fastened into the corners Of the outer
frame, which serve to support the inner
crossarms. The entire loop Is tuned
by means of .O01 variable condenser.
Still smother form of loop is shown
In Figure 8. This is known as the box
type and, while 1t requires more room
to set up, is claimed by many en-
gineers to be more efficient than the
ordinary spiral or fat pancake loop. A
good size to use for the broadcast
waves measures four feet on the arms,
the ends of which are provided with
bakelite or other insulating material
In the slots on which are wound 10
turns of loop wire, five on either side
of the lower upright support. Like the
other types, 1t Is tuned with variable
condenser and is recommended highly
for use with supersensitive receiving
instruments, owing to its large dimen-
