IDAHO ‘OVER BY § $2, 000, - A grand total of $11,000,000, an over-subscription of $2,000,000 is the great showing made by Idaho in the second Liberty loan drive. Shoshone county heads the list, having subscribed $1,- 663,200, an over-subscription of $703,200. _Ada stands second with $1,597,000. D. W. Davis, state chairman of the loan campaign, informs us that telegraphic communications received show that the fund is swelling over the report made Saturday night. The $11,000,000 subscription he states is conserv- ative, as that figure makes a good allowance for the falling down of any of the counties which have not received full re- ports from precinct chairmen. Late reports have shown an in- crease in amounts subscribed in Idaho and Blaine counties. The former has a total subscription of $160,000 and Blaine county $145,- 000, an over subscription of $45,- 000. Adams, Butte and Power counties have made up the full amount of their allotments. These were reported somewhat short on Saturday night. The fund was greatly swelled Sunday by the employes of the Oregon Short Line, whose total subscription to the loan is figured at $100, We are in the market for FAT HOGS every Monday.

Ferdinand State Bank FERDINAND, IDAHO As evidence of the strong fi- nancial standing and patriotism of the Knights of Pythias order, the Supreme Chancellor, with headquarters at Indianapolis, has sent the following notice to the local lodge here—as well as to all K. of P. lodges throughout the country: ‘‘Our Board of Control purchased $100,000 second Liber- ty loan, making our total contri- pation in Liberty bonds $150,- The First National bank has just issued in neat pamphlet form a digest of the new war tax rev- enue law, covering the individual income tax, corporation income tax, excess profits tax, estate tax and miscellaneous war taxes.

Se Many newspapers have made the mistake recently in stating that after Nov. 2d the postage on drop letters in the home postof- fice would remain the same as before—one cent. The printed instructions to postmasters fix the rate for drop letters and post- al cards at 2c and for all other letters 3c, G. W. Phillips this week show- ed us a copy of the Register, pub- lished in his old home town of Wilbur, Wash., containing a list of those who subscribed for Lib- erty bonds. George feels rather proud of the patriotism shown there, as the little town of about 400 people subscribed for $125,- 000 worth of bonds.

At the old gold-exchange value of the mark the present loan would amount to $3,107,500,000. But the value of paper mark as established in the neutral ex- changes around Germany is now only about half of the old value, which makes’ this loan amount only to a trifle over $1,500,000,000 or the smallest sum subscribed to any German war loan since the first one in 1914. The present loan is thus of in- terest chiefly in revealing Ger- many on the full wave of an enormous paper-money inflation. It represents on a grand scale between government and people a swapping of irredeemable paper marks for labor and material and then a return swap of paper marks for paper in the form of a bond.—New York World. S. D. Taylor, at one ‘time pub- lisher of a newspaper at Bonners Ferry, is going about the state in an effort to organize republi- can clubs. A poor time to at- tempt anything like that. Just now the republicans are standing back of a democratic president, and they are going to until this war isover. The kind of clubs needed at this time are patriotic clubs, after the style of Roose- velt’s big stick.—Lewiston Ban- ner. —— CALL ON——— J.B.
