In the introductory paragraphs of kis highly interesting message, Gov ernor Davis strikes a new and pro foundly significant note. He points out that the great struggle has taught all mankind the necessity of viewing events with an enlarged vision, of casting aside all personal and even national self-interest, and of realiz ing the responsibility of promoting the general welfare of the race. "The end of the great war," he says, "has brought to the state, as to the nation, many problems calling for the exercise of wise discretion and right motives. The solution of these problems is not to be found in the query as to whether proposed re forms will benefit one class or one Industry. The only test which your constituency asks you to apply to leg islation proposed before you is wheth er or not it promotes the general wel fare. I feel sure that you will not miss your great opportunity in the consideration of trivial and self-seek ing proposals." These are wise words. They are a valuable caution and suggestion to men about to be engaged in making laws that will determine the develop ment or retarding of the state of Idaho, and her people. Too often the whole legislative session has been taken up by factional fights in which one section of the state was violently pitted against another section. If har mony could be introduced into the state legislature, if the motives that actuated the people's representatives were concerned entirely highest good to the greatest number, if fighting for the petty commercial advantage of one part of the state were not permitted to embarrass and injure the well-being of another, the citizens would feel that the millenium was not entirely of the stuff that dreams are made of. with the It is to be hoped that the governor's broad and generous minded view of the duties of the legislators coincides with that held by the legislators them selves. Ra te sa Any one who had even the slightest (connection with the administartion of the affairs of the S. A. T. C. will appreciate this rich story which is vouched for by a victim of conflicting and contradictory war department or ders. The tale goes something like this. A telegram at eight in the morn ing; "Buy blankets for the boys." At ten, "Do not buy blankets for the boys." At two, "Borrow blankets for the boys." At four, "Do not borrow blankets for the boys.' At seven, "See that the boys are comfortable.' PS Rs « That the drive for funds for the Armenians and Syrians has the great est backing in the world is indicated by a telegram received from the Red Cross. The Red Cross, which is the most honored welfare organization in the world today, has expressed in no uncertain terms its full confidence in the Armenian Relief committee and in the imperative demand for such relief. Pa Pr P» The regular annual announcement has been received that all the citrus fruits in California have been entirely destroyed by frost. Now we can go ahead as usual and expect a full mar ket,—at advanced prices. •:-A SUCCESSFUL MEETING IS HELD Methodist Minister Discusses Vast Program for Reconstruction work That the district meeting of the ministers and laymen of the Metho dist church held at Lewiston yester day and today was a distinct success, is the statement of the Rev. Mr. H. O. Perry, who returned on this after noon's train. Mr. Perry stated that the chief mat ter before the meeting was the con sideration of the Methodist church ad vance program for reconstruction. Their world program involves the of the sum of $100,000,000 raising which will be expended not only in religious work but in philanthropic and relief work of various kinds in the war region and at home. I GREATER POWER I ORDINANCE PROVIDES FOR PR0 W FLOATING, ISSUING, AND EN FORCING QUA RANTIN' YET FREE FROM "FLU" Number of New Cases Developed Among Students—Graduate ivurse ttmpiojea. flu" situation in Potlatch is now worse than it has been at any time during the epidemic there being about twenty-five cases reported.

The Red Cross is maintaining Mrs. Viola Nel son, a graduate nurse of St. Luke's hospital to act as a visiting nursery along the lines of educational work and home care of the sick.

Great Care Necessary to Prevent Further Outbreak. The appalling ravages of Spanish best realized by the statement recent ly made, that more deaths have re suited in little more than a month from this disease dhan through our whole eighteen months participation in the battles of the European War. Our greatest ranger now, declare authorities, is the great American ten dency to forget easily and to believe the peril is over. Competent authori ties claim the coming of cold weather is very apt to bring a return of this disease and there should be no let-up throughout the winter months of the following easily observed precautions, remembering that Influenza is far easier to prevent than cure. Influenza is a crowd disease. In fluenza germs spread when ignorant or careless persons sneeze or cough without using a handkerchief. Cover up each cough or sneeze. Do not spit on the floor t sidewalk, in street cars or public places. Avoid the use of common drinking cups and roller towels in public places. Breathe some reliable germicidal and antiseptic air to destroy the germs that do find lodgement in your nose and throat. Remember, no safer precaution against Influenza could be employed in this manner than to get Jfrom the nearest drug store a complete Hyomei Outfit consisting of a bottle of the Pure Oil of Hyomei and a little vest pocket hard rubber inhaling device, into which a few drops of the oil are noured. You should carry this In ïïaler about with you during the day and each half hour or so put it your mouth and draw deep breaths its pure, healing ^germ killing air into the nassages of your nose, throat and lungs. By destroying germs before they actually begin work in your blood, you may make yourself practically immune to infection. All these suggestions about Spanish Influenza are equally true in the pre vention of colds, catarrh of nose and throat, bronchitis and even pneumonia. Don't become careless. Do your part. Keep the germs away. You may save yourself a serious illness and the loss of several weeks work. For sale by R.
