NV 4 HEN we had disposed of the
W heavy mail letters, he started
III to dictate to me one of the
chapters of his book. 1 did not
know shorthand and so took his
dictation straight down on my little
typewriter.
He dictated quite slowly, walking
about the room as he did so. We got
along fairly well. The announce
ment that lunch was ready brought
this interesting morning to an end.

Fight Not Over

Fight for justice for the soldiers
has not ended. The bill passed over
President Coolidge's veto-the So
called tombstone bills not the
best we shall do to discharge that
debt. In the platform adopted by
the voters themselves in the Wis
consin State primary election in
April this year and promptly thrown
out by the Republican national con-
vention, was the following plank:
we favor adjusted compensation
for the veterans Of the late war. not
as charity. but as a matter Of right.
and We demand that the money
necessary to meet this obligation Of
the Government be raised by taxes
laid upon wealth in proportion to
ability to pay, and declare our oppo-
sitiOn 10 the sales tax or any other
device to shift this obligation onto
the backs of the poor in higher
prices and increased cost of living.
We do not regard the payment at
the end Of a long period of a small
insurance as provided by the law re-
Gently passed as in any just sense a
discharge Of the Nations obligations
to the veterans"
l have lived to see many a Wis
consin proposal thrown out Of Re
publican national convention and
later become the law of the land. I
expect to see legislation in line with
that plank enacted by the Congress
of the United States.

FORGET SOLDIERS
IN TWO YEARS
By ROBERT MIA TOILETTE

House by a vote of 31S to rs passed
the bill again over the veto. May
10 the Senate by a vote of SO to &c
did the same. Every effort magma
bic was made to have the Senate
sustain the President. Seven doubt
full Senators were entertained the
morning of the vote at breakfast by
the President, according to the news
papers, but of these only four voted
as he desired-Keyes, New Hanp-
shire; Mckinley, Illinois; Phipps, Col
orado; Sterling, South Dakota In
the Senate an attempt was made to
obtain delay in order that further
pressure might be brought. Tele-
grams from chambers of commerce,
banks, big industrial concerns and
similar interests poured in upon the
Senate by the thousands urging that
the veto be upheld. But the Senate
did its duty. or the pale shadow of
its duty as represented by the bill,
which finally passed.
This question Of compensation was
not entirely an after-the-war ques-
ton. 1t arose more than once dur
ing the war. In the summer of
1917 the Senate recessed one day in
order that the members might go
down to Pennsylvania avenue to see
the first contingent of America s
drafted men leaving for France.

ships inflicted in many cases on
those they left behind and the I'M
wisdom and unfairness of sending
them into battle with this worry on
their minds. l proposed that this ad-
ditional pay should be obtained by a
special tax on incomes exceeding
$4,000 a year.
For obvious reasons I doubted the
success Of such a measure bearing
my name. Therefore I submitted it
to Senator Hardwick OF Georgia, and
he. agreeing with me, accepted the
authorship. It took the form of an
amendment TO the war revenue bill
then before the Senate.
It received five votes. Senator
Hardwick and the other four Of us
were bitterly abused for attempting
TO spread dissatisfaction in the
Army"
And all we were attempting to do
was to make the pay OF our soldiers
approximate the pay of the Cana
dian soldiers.

Madame Ernestine Schumann- -Heink has a special place In her heart for the boy scouts. A promise made by her eighteen months ago to the scouts of Boise, Idaho, to go camping with them and sing for them around the campfire, Is still unfulflled. but that the great prima donna has forgotten friends is shown in the following let ter recently sent by her to the scouts of Boise.
 My Dearly Beloved Scout-Sons:
 Don't lose faith in me, please. If you knew how hard I work. after I was two and one-half months i'll, near dying: how had to make up all the postponed concerts and bank and house-oh, gee, all sorts of things to attend to, you would forgive my not coming or writing. You see, boys, l am, with all my many thousands of friends and own family, alone. There Is no loving husband. Since twenty
 me years l lost the fine. dear father of my children, and since l am to full fill the duties of father and mother. and sing besides. AS you know, my children now all are married. have their own children. 1 am free. 50 you think, to run around and around and enjoy life, but not I. My duties are just as great, and even harder, though love 1t and I am happy to be the most necessary fact in many QueS- tions.
 This years vacation I used to fix my new home, where I will live till the Great Caller comes whom we all have to follow peacefully. I am still singing, so hope, for four years more before I retire. Then I shall have been singing fifty years and close my career with my golden jubilee. To see you all once more, beloved chill dren O mine, and be with you round campfire and telling you some sto- ries and facts of my life, shall be one of my dearest duties to fulfill, and when you are men and come near my home in California. sooner or later, you will be very welcome there. every one of you.
 My best love and wishes are with you and yours and beautiful. great Idaho. and the Boise City people.

FIRE DESTROYS RESIDENCE
Petersburg Report )

A fire caused by an overloaded stove occurred early Wednesday forenoon which practicallydestroye the residence of Mr and Mrs. Wm. Stedman. The house was occupied by Miss Grissinger, teacher in the To- al school, who lost many of her elothes and personal belongings.
 The fire was caused by the heat ing stove in the front room and started in the partition back of the stove and quickly ate it's way through the ceiling and roof. The alarm was sounded by NJ. s. Perkins who discovered the flames shortly after they started. The fire depart nent was on the scene within a few minutes and after hard fight man. aged to save the structure from total loss. Pete Jorgensen and Art Young both suffered severe cuts to their hands from broken glass while fighting fire. Theodore Johnson suffered an injured toe, and is con- fined to his bed. The loss was par tially covered by insurance.

SCOUTS PLAN BIG GOOD TURN

The forces of the Boy Scouts of America are to be drawn up in a na- tion-wide civic good turn in the form of assistance in community rat-kill- ing campaigns. The executive board, Boy Scouts of America, has recently given official backing to scouts help in organized effort. to rid the land of the malignant rodent.
 That scouting's standards of fair play and humane ideals will in no wise be endangered by scouts participation in the extermination of the pests. Is cited by Dr. W. T. Hornaday, director of th. New York Geological park, known the world over for his high sportsman ship and sympathetic knowledge of an- inial life.
 T cannot conceive of a more laud- able use of the surplus energies of the boy scouts than in helping in the task of bringing about the total ex- tinction of the common rat, the rec ognized pest throughout the world" says Doctor Hornaday. The boy scouts should be commended and en- couraged in the ruthless killing of rats. If the loss of the millions of dollars to agriculture and the trade, caused by these animals, Is not suf- fcient to justify destruction. then con- sider the further menace as the car riers of many contagious diseases which they alone are the means of scattering broadcast. In my opinion there Is no danger of impairing the morals of boy scouts or encouraging ruthless slaughter of wild animals while engaged in the extermination of these loathsOme pests. If the Boy Scouts of America should be the means of killing of all domestic rats and rodents they would be entitled to a medal and a monument a mile high to show the appreciation of the world in general"

THIRD PARTY
LOSING GROUND

The third party has not been gain
ing ground for the past two weeks.
Although an attempt has been made
to use the term. Progressive" in de-
scribing it, the cause has failed to
enlist those who were foremost
among the followers of Theodore
Roosevelt. They say that LaFollette
has no right to that name. The larg-
est organized elements which have
come unhesitatingly and enthusiasts
tically to the support of the third
party are Socialists, Radicals, Com
munists, l. w. WIS and members of
other bodies who are essentially OPP
posed to the principles upon which
this government was founded.
These elements could never have
been attracted to, or held, unless
underlying the camouflage phrases
of the platform there were to be
found those principles to which they
the radicals, adhere and which
strike at the very heart of the coun-
try. Their plans, which they believe
can best be carried out through the
third party. would take away from
the small business man the opportun-
ity of making a living for himself
and his loved ones, and in the last
analysis would strike deep at the
moral structure of the nation. 1t
must not be forgotten for a moment
that to these elements of the third
party, Soviet Russia is the ideal
form of government. h Russian
form of government would take from
the wage-earner his chance to ad-
vance; it would deprive the children
of the nation their chance to ecure
an education; it would prevent their
occupying higher positions in the af-
fairs of the world than their par
ents have held-the latter would be
but mere cogs in a vast machine.
That would mean hat the children
would be in the same position as
are the little one of Russia today.

clans and published in magazines and

CAN'T STAND FOR DAVIS

Coal miners in the Union Pacific
country. at Sheridan and other points
in Wyoming where coal is mined and
organized labor is strong, have a
long think coming before they cast
their ballots in November. Some of
them, no doubt, are contemplating
voting for John w. Davis. While
are so contemplating let them
refer to the records of the federal
court at Parkersburg. West Virginia,
wherein was tried the cases against
the Union labor leaders of the Fair
mont and Clarksburg district coal
strike in 1902. And wherein John
w. Davis, now Democratic candidate
for president. was the leading at
torney for the coal companies, and
caused the failing of the strike lead
ers on an alleged charge of contempt
in order to break the strike and con-
tinue the employment of scab labor,
with the ultimate object of estab-
fishing ''open shop" in that mining
district.
John w. Davis was the leader then
of the move against organized labor.
At heart he has not changed, and
eve will. In all the years since
he has been the servant of this sort
of antagonistic capital.
This one instance could have been
orgotten and possibly forgiven on the
