M. at the west end packing plant The owners of the West End Orchards & Land Company have commissioned us to close out all their holdings, including personal property such as automobiles, mules, harness, sprayers, farm machinery and complete office equipment. The owners realize that conditions are are not ideal for this sale, but they are determined to close out everything they own in this district. The result will be some of the biggest land bargains ever offered in the Northwest. 200 Acres in Bearing Orchard; 100 Acres in Open Land-At Your Own Price Two-thirds of these tracts have splendid bearing orchards set to standard varie- ties of apples. The other one-third is in barley and fall wheat and will make ideal land for alfalfa and head lettuce that yield such handsome returns in Lewiston Or- chards. The annual returns from either of these crops should equal the price you can get these tracts for at this auction. Tracts are in various sizes, 5, 10,15, 20 and 25 acres. Several of them have small houses. All tracts are in the west end of beautiful Lewiston Orchards. With paved highway running through the district and fine schools and churches near at hand. They have all medern conveniences, such as electric lights, telephones, ete., and are but a few minutes from Lewiston’s main street. Very Easy Terms. Terms of payment extend over a period of years. If terms prescribed are not satisfactory we will be glad to submit any other reasonable set of terms to the own- ers for their approval. Write for folder giving map and full information The FRED B.

Senator Borah states in a let- | ter to the Pocatello, Idaho, post, | American legion, that if he voted | |for the soldiers’ bonus bill “it | | would be a simple matter of bar- | | ter, in which I use the people’s | ;money to buy somebody's vote.” | The letter was in response to a | | telegram received by the senator | |from the Pocatello post and was | | made public by him. | | “I observe in your telegram,” | | it says, “the threat which you! | impliedly make as to future po!- | itical punishment. It was wholly j unnecessary for you to make |this threat. It reflected no! ; credit upon you and it has had | ino effect whatever upon me. | When you come to that fight in | | which you propose to inflict pun- | jishment, you will doubtless be |able to say many things in the| | way of censure upon my public | | record. Won't Buy With Public Money “But one thing neither you nor any one else will be able to say | and that is that I ever sought to | purchase political power by | drafts upon the public treasury, | or that I chose to buy a continua- | tion in office by putting four | billions of dollars upon the bend- ed backs of American taxpayers. | “T haven't much respect for the man who buys office, even though he pays for it with his own money. But the most slimy creature which disgraces Ameri- can politics is the man who buys | office by paying for it with ap- propriations out of the public treasury and charges his venal political obligations to the tax- payers. . | Refusese to Barter Vote. “If I thought this measure a proper one, I could and would vote for it.

It is strange | indeed that so few of our states- men thought of the condition of the treasury until the introduc- | tion of the bonus bill.
