Aid in Sight for Stock- men States Stanfield. Bankers' $50,000,000 Pool Now Functioning; Agricultural Relief Bill to Start Work in 30 Days Weiser, Idaho, Aug. 26 There is financial relief ahead for the live stock men as a result of the passage by congress of the agricultural relief bill, according to statement given out by United States Senator R. N. Stan field, who arrived in this city yester day from Chicago, where he had been in conference with officials of the war finance corporation, ious business interests, and then a few days of the month's recess tak en by congress looking after his var ious business interests here, and then will go on to Ontario, Or., where he has his headquarters. It is his plan to remain in this sec tion for several days, and then to meet his colleague, Senator McNary and together they will visit Portland and other western Oregon towns. Benefits Stockmen Senator Stanfield looks as though the life at Washington was agreeing with him, but shows that he has been .vorking extremely hard. "This government aid measure," said Senator Stanfield, "will add to the benefits of the $50,000,000 bank ers' pool formed in Chicago some months ago, but it does not contain a panacea for all the troubles of the livestock man. It will help him to withstand the present financial crisis and in many cases it will be the as sistance he needs to continue with his business. "In other instances it will keep the livestock man from marketing much of his young stock, so that he will have something left in the future to produce for him." The measure, according to the sen ator, should be in operation within thirty days. Ingenious, But Not Convincing (National Republican.) Certain very clever correspondents and news syndicates established themselves during the eight years of Wilson because of various inside av enues of information which were kindly afforded them by the national administration. Needless to say these correspondents and syndicates posing as non-partisan, were at all times pro-Wilson. Since the Republicans have come into power in Washington they have taken a new tack. They are still pro-Wilson but are compelled, be cause of circumstances, to try to be more subtle. Some of them have hit upon an ingenious, and, from their standpoint, an excellent scheme. They cannot criticize the present ad ministration without losing their mask of non-partisanship. So they have adopted the expedient of refer ring to every important action of President Harding and his cabinet as "adopting the principles of the Wil son administration." In this manner ' they are attempting to give the credit for the achievements of President Harding to the influence of their for- ; mer chief and patron. When Ambassador Harvey was di rected to sit informally in the meet- , ing of the great council they hailed this as the adopting of Wilson's pol icy of interference in European af- ' fairs, although in fact the foreign pol icies of this administration and the preceding one are as far apart as ! the poles. j Every act of Secretary Hughes is heralded by these political experts as a resumption of the policy of Mr. j Wilson and Mr. Colby, this in spite of the fact that in a great many of jour foreign problems the preceding administration had developed no pol icy whatever. Doubtless as time goes on, if President Harding attends the baseball games at Washington park with any regularity, this will be hailed too as a posthumous victory for the influence of Mr. Wilson. The latest pro-Wilson propaganda of this kind was released the other day just after invitations had gone out to the powers for the disarma ment conference here. President Harding and Mr. Hughes are for unpreparedness, was the startling announcement of these "non-partisan" experts and it was added that by this note to the powers Secretary Hughes had reverted to Woodrow Wilson's theory of disarm ament. This is the first that the general public knew that Woodrow Wilson had any tangible theory of disarm ament. It had been the general im pression that he was in favor of gen eral unpreparedness. That at least was the inference which could be fairly drawn upon the policy of Mr. Wilson from the breaking out of the war in Europe until the entrance of America into the conflict. For three years while the world was on fire he sat supinely in the White House, preaching neutrality, indecisive peace, and the doctrine of keeping out of war because we were too ; proud to fight. It was only when war was upon us that the administration commenced to iarm, and the waste and extravagance ' due in part to the unnecessary haste because of unpreparedness will not he forgotten in America by this gen eration. Of course President Harding and Secretary' Hughes are in favor of disarmament. So are the American people. But they propose a practical kind of disarmament by which all the powers will disarm together, not a blissful state of unpreparedness on the part of their own country. This is not reverting to Woodrow Wilson's theory of unpreparedness, nor is it a journey into the labyrinth of the league of nations. It is a sensible effort to carry out the wishes of the American people. The effort by these correspondents and news syndicates of the ultra modern "non-partisan" school to throw the mantle of Woodrow Wilson around President Harding are ingen ious but not convincing. All the Taxes Are Paid by All the People One of the most preposterous of all the demagogical claims about taxes is that some of them are "rich men's taxes" and others "poor men's taxes." All taxes are necessarily paid by all the people. Put a tax on a rich man's tenant house and the charge goes into the cost upon which the rental charge is based. Put a tax on the manufacturer and it enters into the cost of production which in urn determines sales cost paid hy the customer. The cost of govern ment under existing conditions is so THE AMERFCAN COW DOES MORE THAN JU OVER THE MOOM; SHE FEEDS A NATION. f) COPtPiS-'T IDE! PUB.

What the country needs is not merely a shifting of tax burdens, but a lifting of every unnecessary item of expense n the vast sum total of the cost of government. Merciless reJuction of public expenditures is the only genuine remedy for excess ive taxation. National Republican. SMILE AWHILE Business Methods. When the agent brought Mrs. Tar ley her fire insurance policy he re- maked that it would be well for her to make her first payment at once. "How much will it be?" she asked. "About $100. Wait a minute and I'll find the exact amount." "Oh, how tiresome!" she exclaim ed. "Tell the company to let it stand and deduct it from what they will owe me when the house burns down." American Legion Weekly. On a Small Scale. The baby had been through a siege of chicken pox, and when the min ister's wife met the baby's sister Jane she inquired as to his health. "He's some better," replied Jane noncommittally. "Very much better, I hope," said the minister's wife cheerfully. "Well," answered Jane, "he could n't be such an awful lot better. There isn't very much to him, you know." Gabriel's Trump. It happened during the early days of the war, but it's just as good now. A member of the local Council of Defense had hired an enthusiastic small boy to put up some posters he had received the day before. The youth was instructed to cover every vacant space he could find with a poster. All went well until noon, when an indignant old gentleman stamped in to the office and demanded to know what in thunderation that kid was trying to pull off, anyway, and insist ed that the council member accom pany him. There in the cemetery, on the side of the mausoleum which contained all the mortal remains of one of the city's fathers, was emblazoned the command: "Wake up! Your country needs you!" "I want to start annulment pro ceedings against my wife," growled a big red-faced man as he flung hisj bulk into a chair in a lawyers office. I "On what grounds?"

"I'm not a common tramp, your honor." said the tattered individual who was charged with vagrancy. "What are you, then.-' "I'm a tourist. I started out to see America."

His large practice included many pa tients outside the city limits and these he visited in his buggy. One day, it appears, Dr. Reed bought a new horse with which he was greatly pleased until he discov ered that the beast had an insur mountable objection to bridges of all kinds and could not be made to cross one. Now, inasmuch as at that period it was necessary to cross cer tain bridges in order to reach any one of the surrounding towns, the doctor decided to sell the horse. He did not think it at all necessary to mention the animal's peculiarity, but was much too honest to misrepresent him. Accordingly, after due cogitation, he inserted in a local paper the follow ing advertisement: "For sale A chestnut horse, war rant sound and kind. The only rea son for selling is that the owner is obliged to leave Boston." Philadel phia Ledger. FARM POINTERS. Lime favors nitrate production and averts nitrogen starvation especially with the legumes, such as clover and the vetches, which are very sensitive tc acidity and respond well to lime as a corrective.
