Prompt Punishment, OF tIar.

Years ago the courthouse in San
Francisco fronted the old Plaza. A
trial was in progress, and counsel for
the defendant was cross-examining the
plaintiff. An earthquake shook the
chandeliers and dislodged some of the
ceiling. Judge. jurors. witnesses and
spectators rushed for the door. but.
finding that the seismic disturbance
was over, they returned.

Almighty at the lies this witness was

Sad Spectacle.

George Marie Grady, you are un'

NV of the well-known banker, to whom
these words were addressed, appeared
IN the uniform of the ordinary in

Two minutes later he was marched

in rags, his back bent, his head hang

that large crowd gathered near the
Porte des Lilas that morning soon
after breakfast, having heard the an
nouncement that the degradation was
for eight o'clock in the morning. r
Special detachments of all the serv-
Ices represented in the garrison of
Paris were on parade, and at eight
o'clock at trumpet call, they formed
q hollow square The colonel in COM
mand gave the order" Shoulder arms"
and then Grady was seen coming
from one of the buildings, marching
slowly but with some composure. and
with a guard of four infantrymen.
The guard accompanied him to the
middle of the square, presented arms
and then made three steps backward,
leaving Grady in shameful solitude.

The officers were drawn up on horse
back in front of him. The colonel
gave orders to the bugler, and once
more the high notes rang out.
Then a sergeant stepped up to
within a pace of Grady and read out
the judgment of the courtmartial con-
demning Grady to death and the pres
idential decree committing his SEN
tence.
The proclamation began: I'm the
name of the French people" and the
sergeant concluded by making the
usual announcement: This judgment
has been read aloud before the con-
demned man, and before the troops as
sembled under arms" At this Col.
Lejaille, who had dismounted, step
ped up and addressed Grady: Grady,
you are unworthy to bear arms;
in the name of the law we degrade

The adjutant then tore away the
buttons from the uniform, the strap
from the kept and all other decora-
tons, including the epaulettes. The
bugle was heard once more and the
same four privates who had led Grady
out of the barracks led him back
again.

PINCHOT-BALLIN BRIEFS
ARE FILED

Washington. June 13-Briefs were
filed today by attorneys for the pros
ecution and defense with the Balm
ger-Pinchot investigation committee
today. Attorney Brandeis and Attor-
ney Pepper for CLAWS and Pinchot
respectively contended that the evil
dence showed Ballinger to be unfit to
administer the affairs of the public
domain because of his obvious lean
ing against the policy of conserva-
ton. They charge him with causing
embarrassment to the president and
loss to the people. Attorney Yer
trees for Ballinger declares that none
of the accusations against him was
sustained by the facts presented and
that there was conspiracy to re-
move him from office because he did
not approve the so-called Garfield
policies.

A PLEA FOR BETTER, HAPPIER
HOME LIFE
An Appreciation of the Department of
Domestic Science of the ACad-
envy of Idaho

No thinking person can contem-
plate with indifference. the tendency
of the American people to abandon
homelife. We all agree in our minds
that the home is the cornerstone, not
only of the nation, but of Heaven as
we'll; but what have we done in our
selves to retain that which is the
nearest approach of the Kingdom of
Heaven upon earth; and avert the
danger arising from the herding to-
gether in community life of all sorts
and conditions of men and women,
having neither legal nor moral re-
strictions placed upon them.
We learn from Holy Writ that
"God selleth the solitary in families.
Since He so sets the appoval of In
finity upon the home it seems hardly
safe or right to abandon the tried
and happy road for dangerous, man
made highway whose grade Is down
hill all the way.
Why, we wonder, the tendency to
sink the identity of the family life
and choose a form of existence even
more patriarchiel than that of Abra-
hams time, for even then the head
of the family had authority, always
respected, which led the way to things
uplifting, always struggling after
good.
But the present head of the tribe
being worldly ambition-wedded to
sensual pleasure can hardly be de-
pended upon as wise counselor.
In our great cities the head of the
family is rarely more than mere
money-getting machine or possibly a
lay figure wound up for social
career.

PRESIDENT ELIMINATES LAND
FROM POCATELLO NATION.
AL FOREST, IDAHO

The president has signed procla-
nation eliminating approximately
22,326 acres of land from the Poca-
tello National Forest, Idaho. These
eliminations are the result of very
careful field examinations made by
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
during the summer of 1909. The
areas excluded from the forests are
mainly agricultural and grazing in
character, and have practically no
value for forest purposes or for wat
ershed protection.
Slightly over half of this elimi-
mated area is taken from the Portneuf
division, in narrow strips of bench
land along the east and west bound
aries. From the north end of the
Oxford division 3,S40 acres are elm
mated. The examination disclosed
that these areas are more valuable
for grazing and dry farming than for
National Forest purposes.
On the east boundary of the Elk
horn division, in T. II S., R. SO E.,
there is eliminated strip of land one
and one-half miles wide by six miles
long, embracing $3.50 acres of land.
This area is chiefly valuable for ag-
riculture and has practically no forest
cover. Six sections of land of the
same character are also released
along the northern boundary of the
Malad division, in T. IL S., R. 81 E,
The lands which are eliminated
will be restored to settlement and en-
try after having been duly advertised
in the local papers by the Secretary
of the Interior.

A NEW GOLD RUSH

Seattle, June 6-Are the boom days
of the Klondyke rush in 1928 go
ing to be repeated as the result of
gold discoveries in the Iditarod coun-
try, is the question which Seattle bus
mess men are discussing with inter-
est since the spring rush to Alaska
began. The sailing of the steamer
Jefferson for Skagway and the Vic
toria for Nome, each loaded to capac-
ity with passengers and freight bound
for the new camp by different routes,
and receipt of letters telling of gold
panning SIS to $50 pan along five
new creeks has stimulated the gold
fever as it has not been reused since
the Klondyke days. Now steamer
is loading to sail for Bethel, small
trading post at the head Of the ocean
on the Kushkokwin river,
whence the most direct route to the
Iditarod and Innoko districts Is found.
If the mouth of the Kuskokwin Is
found to be safe for navigation by
icean vessels this will probably be-
come the popular route to the new
camps. Steamship men say they will
handle fifteen thousand passengers
for Alaska this month. Local jobbing
houses are working day and night fill
ing orders for supplies. Mining men
estimate an OUTPUT Of a million in
gold from the Iditarod this year, and
ten million next year when transpor-
tation routes are better established
and more claims worked. The pros
peritv of the new camp will probably
effect the entire Northwest country,
increased markets for her
products, and Seattle will be the di-
rect benefactor

though he violently exercised his eyes
