region drained by the Bear River In
dictate that the snow supply IL abund-

of water in that stream seems good. In
the area drained by the Boise River

LIBRARY INVESTIGATION
WILL BEGIN TONIGHT
CITY COUNCIL TAKES FIRST STEP
IN MOVEMENT
subpoenas Are Issued for = Number Of
Witnesses, Including the Former
Librarian, Mayor and Attorneys.
Directors Depend Upon McAIeer

Tonight the first session in the in
vestiga ton of the library muddle will
be held by the city council. The ses-
sion begins at 1870 o'clock and sew
eral of the councilmen have declared
that on no preteXt will they permit
another pos,ponement.
The city Cterk yesterday issued sub
poenas for the following, who are wit
nesses for Miss Jones, the librarian
who was deposed by the library di-
rectors under fire: W. Is. Mathews,
city attorney: a. w. Fisher Enoch

j. Thomas, Ross T. HickoX, DR.. d.
W. Edelman, II. w. O'Melveney, Ferd
X. Rule, Miss Celia Gleason, Rev. c.
j. X. Jones, j. Ross Clark, Rev. S.
Hecht and w. S. Rodman.
Library Directors Trueworthy,
Marshutz, Dockweiler and Wright,
who are accused by Miss Mary Jones
Of removing her from her position
without cause, have asked for no wit
nesses to be subpoenaed by the city
clerk and it is believed they are de-
pending largely on the statements that
Mayor McAleer may be induced to
make for their acquittal.
The council is considering putting the
mayor on the witness stand at the
beginning of the session and showing
that nc is a party to the charge of
removing Miss Jones without cause.
This will be the defense of the library
directors. They claim that Miss Jones
was removed only after a consulta-
ton with the mayor and by his sug-
geStiOn.

He declared he wanted to be law
abiding and for that reason made APP
plication for a license, although the
district where he proposed to estab-
lish a legal business was infested with
places where liquor was sold in any
quantity and where license had not
even been applied for. His applica-
ton was refused because his place OF
business was outside the prescribed
zone.

JACOBY GETS HIS LICENSE
Lost Money Before and Commission
Grants Concession Because
of Past Sacrifices

Because he had previously lost con-
siderable money in the saloon bust
ness. the application of Harry Jacoby
for a license to conduct a wholesale
liquor store at 716 East Fifth street
appealed to Police Commissioners
Mason and Johnson and the applca-
ton was granted yesterday.
Chief Auble told the commission yes
terday that Jacoby had conducted a
saloon at Main and Court streets and
had rendered the police valuable SER
vice in cleaning out a gang of bad
actors" in the vicinity. AS the saloon
had derived its chief revenue from
this gang, Jacoby had been forced to
close up when it was dispersed and
had lost all he had invested in the
place.
Commissioners Johnson and Mason
do not like the saloon business and
have very little use for any one who
is engaged in it. When a man loses
money in the business they shake
hands with themselves and declare it
serves him right.
Although neither said so in so many
words they allowed Jacoby TO have
his wholesale liquor license in the
hope that he would lose some more
money and give it up entirely.
Experience is a costly school, but
some persons learn valuable lessons
in it." said Commissioner Mason.
