Commissioner Roberts
Building Good Roads

Inc question OF SOoo lodoS IS
agitating the people of every sec
ton of the United States now as
never before in the history of the
country. The almost universal
use of the automobile is having
largely to do with this. although
the factor of good roads in the
matter of cheap transportation of
farm products is playing an i'm
portant part in the work and the
demand. The farmer has gradu-
ally come to calculate hauling by
the ton and to include in its cost
the wear and tear on his wagons
and teams. and the more carefully
he does so the more thoroughly
he IS eonviced of the excessive
cost of hauling products to
market over bad roads.
For a number of years the
North Fork Valley has been as
badly handicapped in this respect
as the average farming commu-
nifty. but we are now forging to the
front with a good system Of
county roads. To be sure the
work must of necessity be done
slowly and year by year on ac-
count of the money limitations.
and the point upon which We can
congratulate ourselves is that we
are gradually acquiring a real
road system with practically the
same money which has formerly
been spent upon temporary. make
shift repairs.
Road Overseer Davis. uuder the
direction of County Commissioner
A. l.. Roberts. has been doing
splendid work all summer. Mr..
Roberts has had many of the more
important roads resurveyed and
straighteped. making fills and
cutting down the grades. and in
many places has widened the
roads on hills and at awkward
passing places. Where it was
necessary to put in a culvcrt or
build bridge. work of the most
enduring and permanent character
possible has been done. to the
end that a road once put in order
will last few years and give the
commis sioner an opportunity to
spend his road appropriation at
other points in the future rather
than spread a few dollars over
such a broad territory that the
work and money is practically
lost. Where seepage and waste
water from irrigating has done
damage to the roads in times past
the source of the damage has
been taken care of and the water
put where it will do no further
harm.
Everyone who has had much
driving to do has noticed the
great improvement on many
roads, and the work is being
pushed along with all possible
speed to the end that as much of
it as possible can be done before
the roads get bad this winter.
Art Roberts as county commits
sioner is building monument to
his efficiency as public official.
perhaps unconsciously, but it is
one which will remain and be an
honor to him and a source of
pride and profit to the entire
North Fork Valley, and will
eventually lead to one of the best
systems Of county roads in the
state. for he is laying the founda-
tions to that end.

Obituary

The sudden death OF q. E. Miller,

Mr.. Miller was of the genial friend

What The District Court
Records Show

While G. w. Suppiger was prose.
cutting attorney of Latah County, dur
ing the years 1909 and 1910. there
have been only two terms of Court at
which juries were called. Thirty one
criminal cases in all have been
brought by him before the District
Court for disposal.
Three cases are still pending:
State VS.. Tate, Grand Larceny.
State VS.. Spencer, Grand LaftEaN.
Statevs. Terry, Selling Intoxicat.
ing Liquors,
The first OF these resulted in a hung
jury on the first trial; in the second
the defendant forfeited his bail bond
and the money has been collected and
paid into the treasury and bench
warrant has been issued for the de-
PENDANT.
Three cases have been dismissed:
State vs.. Lang. Polyema.
State VS.. Bechtal, Bigamy.
State VS.. Schick, Libel.
In the case of State VS.. Stoecker no
information was filed, the prosecuting
attorney having filed his reasons for
not filing an information which were
concurred in by the court.
-Four trials resulted in acquittals:
State VS.. Hutton,
State VS.. Whi:eing.
State VS.. Vosburg.
State VS.. Lotus.
In the first aud last of them the
charge was felony and in the second
and third misdemeanors only were
charged.
The following twenty cases resulted
in convictions. either on trial or plea
of guilty:
State VS.. Blnnion, Burglary.
State VS. Sanderson. Burglary.
State VS. Leonard Case, Forgery.
State VS. Philips. Grand Larceny.
State VS. Thomas, Grand Larceny
State VS. Tlllson. ENLIGHTENMENT.
State VS. Boyle, Burglary.
State VS. Estees, Burglary,
State VS. Davenport, Arson.
State VS. Stout, Adultery.
State VS. Cameron. Appeal.
State VS. Ellis, Forgery.
State VS. Handley, Burglary.
State VS. Cameron. Assault with
Dangerous Weapon.
State VS. Terry, Appeal.
State VS. O'Riellv. Selling Liquor.
State VS. Dicus, Selling Liquor.
State VS. Thompson. Selling Near
Beer.
State VS. Rudninger, Arson.
State VS. McManus, Assault with
Deadly Weapon.
Over seventy cases have been dis
posed of in the Probate and Justice
Courts which resulted in fines being
paid into the County Treasury of over
6,U6O.O 90.
Prosecuting Attorney Suppiger was
the first prosecuting attorney Ill the
state to contend that the sale of Near
Beer was illegal and to prosecute per
sons tor selling Near Beer and his
contention has since been sustained
by the Supreme Court of Idaho.
He is the only prosecuting attorney
in the state that has prosecuted and
secured convictions under the Local
Option Law of 1909, before the law
had been voted on by the people.
Mr.. Suppiger's policy has been not
to prosecute any cases unless there
was fair chance of conviction. In
the cases of Juvenile offenders he has
exercised the greatest leniency, but in
cases of hardened offenders has always
charge the greatest crime the evil.
