KEEP THE POLITICIAN OUT Notwithstanding the warm weather, that eternal mischief-make- r, the professional politician, is at work, cleverly wire pulling--. rlanning1 scheming. And the professional politician haa no more regard for the higher principles which today sway the great body of the Ameri-- t an people, than a Piute Indian has for the ways of the white man The professional politician would bring discord to the Ameri-- i an people at this particular time, when harmony is po essentia!, if disorganization and distrust would advance his calling. The professional politician believes in the "machine" an or-ganisation compactly formed, and in great part secretely operated, to force the g:mg into office. There is nothing held sacred by the machine. It would invade our schools, chuckle at national misfor-tune in the war, and restore the most vicious of old conditions, if EDITORIALS v (By C. D. McNeeley) The Methodist Church people of Bingham have launched a big campaign for a new church, The pastor has organized his forces and started the campaign by securing pledges for several thousand dollars for this good cause. The plan is to give Bingham 9 ten thousand dollar community church. A more worthy cause outside of the war work would be hard to find for a real benevol-nc- e for the camp. This paper wishes the pastor and his flock success, but that wish is not enough it is your duty and mine to help this great cause in a material sense. Good wishes are fine, 4 but they do not buy shingles and labor to do the work of construct ing a new church. , The Bingham State Bank is to be congratulated on their recent "move to make it a strictly home-tow- n bank. The stock is row all owned by Bingham people and the officers are residents of the camp. Much credit for the success of this splendid institu-tion is due to the new president who came here a little more than 'our years ago as cashier and brought this institution out of the Wnks and made it what it is today with the aid of a number of sturdy young fellows who are now associated with him in this new business. A bank is somewhat like a newspaper in that it rests a measure on the good will of the people ot that community, in this respect we feel that the Bingham State Bank stands well toward the forefront in the estimation of the people of this great mining camp. Bingham has again come to the front and pledged herself to secure $200,000 for the war savings drive which is now on in this state and which iomes to a close on June 28. This day has been proclaimed a legal holiday for the people of this state by our worthy governor. The people of Bingham have manifested their loyalty time and again in the past by their subscriptions which have always over reached their quota to the Liberty Loan drives, the Red Cross fund and the other requests for war work in the state and the nation. The people of the camp have given of their blood; they have given of their means, and, best of all, they are giving their love to the great cause of the war and its needs for ' ictory. Now that the drive is on for this great cause to help out a whole through the kaiser the people of this community will come forward and over-subscri- be again. This investment is better than fcn investment in Liberty Bonds we are told .by those in In authority. any event let's rally to the banner of Old Glory and stand by the boys who have offered their breasts to stop the Hun bullets ''MULTITUDES' QF SOLDIERS A recejit. telegram from an English correjondeiEt with the ; Australians, at the front says that the Americans,, wiih their en-thusiasm and. earnestness and their magnif iceot physique, have brought ao impression of the mighty, untappeda strength behind them which has caused the French and British armies to take a .fresh view of tha situation.

Living just as you lived two years ago, earn-ing as much, spending as much and putting the savings into Lib--' erty Bonds is a tepid sort of patriotism. Say a man's income was Jen thousand ; he spent seven, saved three and put it into railroad bonds. He now earns ten, spends seven, saves three and puts it nto Liberty Bonds. He is doing very little indeed to help win tb? war. He might put his money into railroad bonds and get six per ent or six and a half, instead of four and a quarter per cent on Liberty Bonds ; but that is a trifling contribution to the cause. He withholds three thousand a year from the railroads or from in-dustry, and hands it to the government ; but the government must directly hand a good part of it on to the railroads or to industry for necessary extensions and improvements. It has already taken .authority to lend billions to the railroads and to industry for such purposes. , What the nation needs of that individual is increased produc- tion and decreased consumption. If he goes on producing and con-suming just as before the war, a mere change in the direction of the investment of his surplus counts for only a little. When he puts his income up to eleven and cuts his expenditure down to six he is really getting into the trenches. Merely buying bonds, without producing more or consuming less, is only easy-cha- ir help bookkeeping help. That releases a ertain amount of credit for the government's use. But credit is I he least of the government's needs. It already has a vast stock of that commodity. Its vital needs are more labor, more food more fuel, more warlike goods; in short, greater production, less civilian consumption.
