THAT DAIRY CONVENTION.
VIII Twin Falls Get the Dairy Con-

This is a question that should be
taken up at once by those interested
in dairying in the Twin Falls country.

some interest and desire to have it,
The report of the convention last year

Fransdon, who was head of the de-
partment last year, but is now chief of
dairy husbandry in Nebraska, he says:
Il hope that Twin Falls will again Sc
cure the state convention for, in my
opinion, no other city more deserves
the meeting than your city if the way
the last years meeting was appreciat-

Times, Twin Falls, Idaho.
My Dear Mr.. Hill: Have had the
good fortune to be in attendance a

ing held at Madison Square Garden,

and record-breaking crowds in at

tain states and Pacific states, together
with all eastern states, was very re-
markable. Utah, Wyoming, Washing

hibits, furnished by the state together
from the same states were more ex-
haustive exhibits displayed by the
western railroads. The displays ex-
hibited by the Great Northern, North

Paul, Burlington and Santa Fe, were
the limit. No expense spared. But the
poor Oregon Short Line r. R. and the
Union Pacific system of the Hartman
Line, had nothing to show for the
States they traversed. 1t seems to me
at this time, that it might be we'll

was sadly neglected, and that the very
best and most wonderful opportunity
was missed by our good state not be-

ENGINE TURNED OVER.
Frozen Mud on Crossing Causes HOl.
lister Engine to Leave Track.

Saturday afternoon about o'clock
when the train for Hollister was just
out of the yard limits, engine GAL left
the track, causing a tie up on that
branch until Monday
AS near as can be learned the turn
over was caused by frozen mud and
ice on the wagon road crossing, the
engine not being able to keep the
rails. The tender and coaches re-
mained on the track and no serious
damage was done. The engineer and
fireman escaped without being hurt
The wrecker was brought out from
Pocatello and worked the most of Sun
day before the disabled engine, could
be gotten back ON the track and will
be taken to Pocatello for repairs

WATER USERS TO MEET.
Delegates to be Present From all Gov
ernment Projects.

Chicago, Nov. 16.-From reports al
ready received by Fulton Fl. Sears, of
Fallon, New, practically every gov
ernment irrigation project in the west
will be represened at the meeting of
the National Water Users association.
which will be held in Chicago on De-
cember 1. Although water users asso-
Citations have not been organized on all
the government projects, settlers on
each of them have similar problems,
every homesteader under a govern
ment ditch is anxious to see made
these reforms, which the national as
sociation proposes to seek at the Chi
cago meeting.
Ihere are many important topics to
come before this meeting. The set
tiers will demand that when a unit in
project is completed, and the settlers
in this unit have paid back to the gov
ernment one-half of it's cost, control of
the unit shall be turned over to the
homesteaders. This, the water users
declare, is in accordance with the law,
but Secretary of Interior Fisher re-
fuses to recognize it.
The water users also want to have
the right to aid in deciding how money
shall be spent on their projects. They
declare this is proper because they
best know conditions in their locali-
ties, and with their own interests at
heart, they naturally will prevent
waste or the expenditure of money on
extravagant schemes.
The elimination of the vast amount
OF red tape with which the government
irrigation settler must now cope will
also be demanded
Many other needed reforms are also
to be sought.

SENTENCED AND PARDON[D
Lewiston Bank LOOter Receives Mercy
from President Taft.

MOSCOW, Ida, Nov. 13.-There was a
sensational surprise in the federal
court at noon today when Clarence
Robnett of the north Idaho land fraud
cases and the Lewiston National bank
fame, appeared in court, accompanied
by his attorney, Miles S. Johnson of
Lewiston, formerly deputy United
States attorney, and formally pleaded
guilty to all indictments, five in num-
Der, returned two years ago against
him in connection with the theft of
$137 900 of the banks funds and falsi-
fication of the records of the bank.
Deputy United States Attorney Gen
eral Peyton Gordon appeared for the
government and asked that sentence
be imposed. Two indictments were for
false entries, two charging abstraction
Of funds and one charging conspiracy
to defraud the United States. Judge
Dietrich sentenced Robnett, to 10 years
for looting the bank of much of it's
capital stock and about one-third it's
surplus, six months on charge of con-
spiracy and five years on each indct-
ment for conspiracy, all, however, to
run concurrently with the 10-year
sentence in the federal prison at
Leavenworth, Kan.-Statesman
Washington, Nov. 14.-President
Taft today pardoned Clarence w.
Robinett, former bookkeeper and clerk
in the Lewiston National bank of
Lewiston, Idaho, convicted of en-
bezzling the banks funds and SEN
fenced to 10 years Imprisonment. He
has not served any of the sentence.
Through Robinett's voluntary confess
sion the government was enabled, it is
said, to convict William F. Kettenbach,
former president, and George II. Kes-
ter, former cashier, of the bank. The
prosecuting attorney recommended
Robinett's pardon.

United States senators may talk sol

they cannot fool certain Washington

subject. This woman occupies prom

in which senators are SO common that
they do not cut any more figure than
debutantes. She was visiting the sen:
ate wing OF the capitol. in company
with some friends. 1t was about one
o'clock in the afternoon and, as she
happened to glance into the chamber.
she noticed that 1t was vacant.
HAS the senate adjourned Already"
she asked, in surprise.
"Oh, no." a man In the party said
you know 1t meets at twos o'clock
now. in order to give the senators
more time for committee work.
'Ah. yes" she said. Il remember
nov; and 1t really Is very good idea.
