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

"He's some better," replied Jane

"Well," answered Jane, "he could

Truthful.
In Boston they tell of a Dr. Reed
who, in his time, was one of the
prominent physicians of that city.
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:

son for selling is that the owner is
obliged to leave Boston." Philadel
