There was an extra session of the legislature last fall to ? puH down the high prices, but instead of pulling them down it pushed them up. , Just now ther,e are a great many people in this state in both parties who are wondering who the! delegates to the national political conventions will be. Incidentally there are many indi-viduals who would like to act as such representatives. , The big thing now in the political game is to grab nomina-tions, but in a short while the game'will be that of grabbing voters, and those who fail to get the nomination will be expected to get in and work. . Bingham is making steady progress in the library matter and it should not be iong before anyone who. wishes to read good literature will be able to find a splendid public place in which to satisfy this desire. As a rule winter has its say. If it does not get in its work during the winter months it makes up; for lost time later on. That is the case this year. January and February were warm months and so was the best portion of March, but nowHt's real winter and the prevailing weather may continue for days to come, but those who are well supplied with coal should be happy. It's a little top early in the game to start in to pick the winners, but already there are those who claim to see the hand-writing on the walL But the election is still many months off and new lights are liable to swing into sight before the contest is decided. Already there are fellows wanting to make bets on the com-ing election and they can hardly wait or takers, but those who have money to put up will find plenty of time to wager on the man of their choice. " ' Those who were simply wild about the league of nations a few months ago are mighty quiet on the subject now. The sol-dier boys are nearly all against the league because they know it is only a joke and they do not fall for such stuff.

Accord-ing to Report. Residences Needed Badly. Although not yet six months old, Soldier Summit had grown from an obscure way station to a thriving and rapidly populated industrial center. From east to west and from the foot-hills on the south to White River on the north, home builders, prospectors and speculators continue the buying of lots. It is not a mad scramble, such as one might witness at a new mining or oil camp. On the contrary, it is carried on with a decorum and celerity that augurs well tor the fu-ture of this railroad center, which bears no earmarks of a mushroom community. This idea of making Soldier Summit one of the most important terminals along the entire system had been in the minds of Denver & Rio Grande officials for years, and as a result the railroad company; now possesses at Soldier Summit splendid terminals and extensive classification yards. Dally Trafflo Heavy. A daily average of approximately 1,400 cars, both loaded and empty, were handled in the yards during the month of December. For December there was a dally average of eleven west bound coal trains, each train averaging sixty-fiv- e carB. The east bound empty car trains numbered nine, with an average of seventy-si- x cars per train. The number of en-gines turned dally at Soldier Summit was sixty-five- . This Included forty-nin- e engines of the 220 class, four of the 185 class, and twelve Mallets. The above record is for December, 1919. For January, 1920, the normal dally west bound movement was 398 loaded cars, and the average daily east bound movement was 500 empties, but on January 28, for the twenty-tour-hou- r period ending at 6 p. m., there were handled out of Soldier Summit 764 west bound loads and an almost equal number of east bound empties. The new washout system is in full operation at the summit With this system engines can be washed and turned in five hours time. This in-cludes blowing the engine down, washing it out, necessary boiler work, and getting up maximum steam pres-sure. The new-cin-der conveyor is of no less interest than the washout system. Fires are cleaned on the ashpit, and all cinders are imme-diately blown through six or eight-inc- h pipes under the tracks and into a gulch. When warm weather comes it is the intention of the railroad com-pany to load these cinders into cars with this conveyor and make use of them on the tracks. The new reser-voir Just north of the city is now com-pleted, and holds one; and one-hal- f mil-Jio- tt gallons of water, enough-t- o Sup-ply 10,000 r.o n urotl u ill TBll- - road needs. it Residences Needed Badly, But the crying need from the begin-ning has been' for more residences. Soldier Summit has been handicapped in that particular1 respect. Two hun-dred rental cottages is a conservative estimate of present urgent need. Work will soon begin on the concrete subway connecting the south . and north sides. ..A new $50,000 Y. M. C. A. building is to be erected at the earliest possible date, the location being just east of the hotel. The yard-master- 's new office building is now completed, and that will relieve con-gestion in the depot waiting room, which has been used temporarily as his. office, In addition to these, new residences and two store buildings are in course of erection. Two mo-tion picture theaters ares contem-plated, and a church and new school building will be late additions for the year 1920. The population, which Is 800, has more than doubled since J December. ' FEDERAL FARM LOAN TROUBLES. There is in this country an institution known as the Federal Farm Loan bank promulgated for the purpose of giving long-ter- m loans to the farmers at small interest for the purpose of improving the farms and increasing the farm productions of the country. The idea is a good one and if it becomes unquestion-ably effective will mean much to the American fanner. It is just what the farmers need and it is a recognition to which they are justly entitled, but there are those in this great country who do not wish that the fanners should receive such benefits. Not because they dislike the farmers or that they wish them any hard luck, but for the simple reason that this benefit to the farmers prevents some other interests from getting big returns on their loans. . : , , There is a class of bankers that for years have been reap-ing rich harvests from making loans to the farmers, and if the farmers can secure their loans on long terms and at low interest rates from the government these fellows will lose their en .... gains along this line, and therefore they are fighting it Thcj have not only been talking against it and using all kinds of propa-ganda against it, but they have taken it into court to contest the constitutionality of the law. The case is now before the supreme court of the United States and there are a great many fanners right now who are waiting for a favorable decision in order that their loans might be granted. The banks are bitterly opposed to the federal farm loan and if they can destroy it they will do so. The case will most likely be decided favorable to the farmers, but if it is not a similar institution will be established because its use and practicability are already recognized and the various fanning organizations of the country will not be idle until they secure their unquestioned rights along this line. The federal farm loan bank is a benefit . to the farmer and the public and should receive universal ap-proval from all interests that favor the general improvement of country. , ' . . . .. t ' v- How Diphtheria Is Contracted. One often hears the'expresslon, "My child caught a severe cold which de-veloped into diphtheria," when the truth was that the cold had simply left the little one particularly sus-ceptible to the wandering diphtheria germ'. If your child has a cold when diphtheria is prevalent you should take him out of school and keep him off the street until fully recovered, as there is a hundred times more danger of his taking diphtheria when he has a cold. When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy' is given it quickly cures the cold and lessens the danger of diph-theria or any other germ disease being contracted. ' WHY HE LEFT THE FARM Why did you leave the farm, my lad? Why did you bolt and leave your dad? Why did you beat it off to town And turn your poor old father down? Thinkers of platform, pulpit and press Are wallowing in deep distress; They seek to know the hidden cause Why farmer boys desert their pas. Well, stranger, since you've been so frank, I'll roll aside the hazy bank. I left my dad, his farm, his plow, Because my calf became his cow. I left my dad, 'twas wrong, of course, Because my colt became his horse. I left my dad to sow and reap Because my lamb became his sheep. I dropped the hoe and stuck the fork Because my pig became 1i is pork.. The garden truck that I made grow Was his to sell but mine to hot. It's not the smoke in the atmosphere, Nor the taste for life that brought me here. j Please tell the platform, pulpit, press, Nt fear of toil nor love of dress: Is driving off the armer lads; It's just the method of their dads I Author not known. i Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The great benefit derived from the use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has been gratefully acknowledged by many. Mrs. Benjamin P. Blackeney, Decatur, 111., writes, "Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is by far the best medi-cine for colds and coughs we have ever used in our family. I gave it to my children when small for croup and have taken it myself."

Just as a Portland (Me.) lawyer was about to begin a wedding cere-mony the lights In his office went out. The bridegroom asked to b excused a few minutes, and ran down into the street where he saw a ntern which was used to warn vehle8 of a hole In the ground. He bo: cowed It long enough to become a benedict and neither he nor his bride regarded the red light as an evil omen. A War Child.
