Results Came Slowly

1t was long time before he saw any
results. The first was a small appro-
priation-$125, 0OO-for the erection of a
government factory. This was after
wards increased to S165,OOO. This appro-
priation was for the factory for army
powder The government had for sever
al years been making powder IN half
hearted sort of way at Indian Head for
the use of the navy. and buying more
than It made. Once he got his appro-
priation, Mr.. Waddell started in to put
the trust out of business by process OF
law. The result of his fight has not
been learned. for ii is not ended.
Put several men in JAIL" was his re-
Spouse to my question as to what would
be done with people who had controlled
supply of powder. The government has
not taken any chances. Its counsel has
refused to allow any of the trust heads
to testify, and thus lay a claim for i'm
munity. The pen is at the end of the
road"
The taking of the testimony in New
York city has consumed several months.

NO BOYS IN POOL HALLS
Poratello Tribune

Pocatello Tribune
That the practice Of allowing min
ors to frequent pool halls in Pocatello
must stop is the order of Mayor D.
w Church to Chief Of Police George
w. Smith. The latter visited the pool
hall of Williams Brothers last Friday
evening and notified the proprietors
that the ordinance relating to this
subject would be vigorously enforced.
In the pool hall is displayed sign
to the effect that boys under 16 are
not allowed, but the difficulty expert
enced by the proprietors is to secure
an admission from the boys who FREE
auent the place that they are under
16.
Section 1853 of the Revised ordi-
nances of the city reads:
ut shall be unlawful for the own
er, keeper, proprietor or manager of
any billiard hall. pool room or bowl
ing alley within the corporate limits
of the city of Pocatello to allow any
person under the age of 16 years to
frequent, play or habitually hang
around or loiter in any such bowling
alley, pool room or billiard hall with
in the corporate limits of the city of
Pocatello.'
The penalty is fine of from SIS to
$25 for each and every offense.

NORTH AND SOUTH ROAD


Judge r. s. Lovett, successor to the
late X. H. Hartman, passed through
here Monday evening with party
of prominent o. S. L. officials. The
party was on its way west, and stop
ped here a few minutes while the
special train was being transferred
to the Boise branch that short visit
might be paid to the capital city.
When interviewed in Boise, Mr..
Lovett said:
II want the people in Idaho to real
lie that we are prepared to build
roads here and as many Of them as
the business demands. We only need
to be shown and we will do the rest.
] understand that the traffic IL very
heavy and 1t is not at all impossible
that we may soon double track the
main line. This will certainly have
to come.
Governor Brady enjoyed confer
ence with the offlcials. Regarding
the connecting OF the northern and
southern portions of the state BY a
railroad, the governor said.
Eve would like to develoD Idaho
with Idaho resources and II there
was railroad connecting these two
portions Of this great state its develop
ment would be rapid and wonderful.
What the northern part Jacks the
southern empire has in quantity and
vice versa. 1t is impossible to esti-
mate the amount of timber adjacent
to Lewiston and 1t could have a ready
market here If a road was built. be-
lieva that ~ the Oregon Short Line
would build the road from Lewiston
to Huntington IT would at once be-
come one Of the best paying branches
of the system. 7
The railroad officials seemed very
much interested in this feature Of the
states development and all were anx-
ious to know of the conditions and
the practicability Of the construction
of such line. "My visit to this state. Z
said Judge Loyett, as he boarded the
special train, .has convinced me that
much will have to be done by us in
the matter Of railroad construction.
/ 1t is without doubt one of the great
est commonwealth I have vet been in
and from the evidences Of activity on
every side 1t is obvious that the fut-
ure Of Idaho is indeed promising.

trip of inspection were: J Krutt-

SETTLER ALLOWED ANOTHER

The liberality OF the government
through the land department, when 1t
can be shown within the strict letter.
made by a settler, has come to light
In the Boise land Office recently
through letter received from the
commissioner allowing Frederick
Oedekoven to reinstate his Homestead
entry and amending it SO that he was
able to virtually jump from his filing
near the Deer Flat reservoir In the
Payette- Boise project. to Long Valley
and enter a 40-acre homestead.
On March IL, 1908, Oedekoyen
made filing through the advice of a
locator on the southeast quarter OF
section s, township 1 north, range
east. He had been upon the land,
as he supposed, and was entirely salts
fed with the selection. The locator
bungled in the description, however,
for when Oedekoven went back after
the fling to find his land he discov-
cred he was on lava bed, SO that
the entry was practically worthless.
Through some source he was inform
ed that he could make relinduish-
ment and another homestead filing at
the same time, thus securing piece
of land he wanted. In the meantime
the land under the Payette-Boise pro-
iect which he was after was filed on
by others. Oedekoven went into the
Long valley country and while there
found 40 acres that suited him. He
appeared at the local land Office and
filed a REIMBURSEMENT on the entry
in the Deer Flat country. This was
accepted and he then submitted a
filing for another homestead. The
officials refused this, as he had ex-
bausted his homestead entry This
placed Oedekoven in somewhat pc
culiar predicament.
Securing the services of LAWYER.
Oedekoven consulted the local land
officials to find out how the lost home
stead right could be recovered. Tt
was eventually decided to appeal to
1.-THE commissioner Of the general land
Office explaining the circumstances
and requesting that the homestead
entry be reinstated and amended. The
! department viewed the matter in a
broad way and realized that the en-
! tryman had been misled in locating
on the worthless land. The local land
officials recommended the amending
of the entry and this amendment was
adopted so that Oedekoven was al
y lowed to relocate his recovered en-
try on the northeast quarter of the
southwest quarter, section 30, town
ship IA north. range east in the
! Long Valley country. .

The leading lawyers Of the senate
judiciary committee say that these
amendments to the penal code of the
United States ought to make effective
the prohibition laws of the several
states, and that while there are pend
ing in the judiciary committee sever
al bills, the object of which is to place
all liquors shipped into prohibition
state under the police powers of such
state, in their judgment the enforce
ment of the penal code will make adj
ditional legislation unnecessary. 1t
was said today that copy Of this
section of the penal code will be
printed and forwarded to all railroads
and express companies Of the United
States, with notification that the law
officers of the government will see to
1t that the sections referred to are
strictly enforced. Leaders of the var
ious temperance associations and soci-
cites throughout the country, espec-
ally in states where prohibition pre-
walls. will keep careful watch on all
suspected persons. Law officers of the
government believe that after Janu-
airy, 1910, the practice which now
prevails Of express companies acting
as agents for those who violate the
prohibition law of their state will
cease, and no longer will whiskey and
other intoxicants be shipped into pro-
hibition states and communities un-
der the guise of Paradise Lost" and

THE sWITcHMEN's STRIKE

The strike Of switchmen schedul-
ed for last night. affecting all lines
from Lake Sunerior to the Pacific
coast. does not affect the Oregon
Short Line. Both the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific are heavily hit,

cerned relations between the company
and the switchmen are most amicable
and no trouble is anticipated.

the far reaching effect of the switch
mems strike should 1t be protracted
is shown in a dispatch from Butte,
Mont, where immense copper mines
and smelters are located. Thew Who'll
ly depend on the railroads directly
concerned in the strike. Inability to
ship coke to the smelters will cause
suspension of operations and fully
ten thousand men would become idle.
"A summary of the switchmen on

striking switchmen. The switchmen
declared IL the railroad attempted to
use non-union switchmen the locomo-
tive firemen might refuse to handle

WILL HELP PRoHIBTTIoNIsTs
New Penal Code Expected to Help
Enforce Prohibition Law

Washington, D. c., Nov. 20 Be-
ginning with January 1, 1910, the
act Of congress to codify, revise and
amend the penal laws Of the United
States, which was approved by the
president March A last, goes into eff
feet. This is one of the most Inn
portant laws enacted by the last con-
gress. The advocates Of prohibition
are greatly pleased, as sections $3.50
and 240 of chapter 8, covering Of
lenses against foreign and interstate
commerce, If enforced, will practical
~ make effective the prohibition laws
in the several states.
Senator Sutherland Of Utah, who
helped to frame the measure, says
the sections named were carefully
considered by the judiciary committee
of the senate and the unanimous opin-
ion of the committee was that the
aforesaid sections are strictly within
the constitution. In his opinion rail
road companies, express companies or
other common carriers, will go slow
in any attempt to evade the law. Sec
tion 23S imposes fine Of not more
than $4,000 or Imprisonment for not
more than two years, or both, upon
any officer, agent, or employe OF
any railroad company, express COM
pany, or other common carrier, who
shall knowingly deliver or cause to
be delivered to any person other than
the person to whom 1t has been con-
signed, unless upon the written order
in each instance of the bona fide con-
signee, or to any fictitious person or
to any person under a fictitious name,
