MOSCOW NEEDS MODERN
COLD STORAGE PLANT

"The greatest need of this commun-
ity today" said prominent merchant
to the Star-Mirror editor, sis modern
cold storage plant For twenty years
that have been in business in Moscow
there has never been year when dur
ing December and January eggs were
not worth So case. Yet during
greater part of the year fresh eggs
can be bought here for from $3.50 to
$6 per case. But without a modern
cold storage plant it is impossible to
keep eggs any length of time, and the
result is that all the surplus is ship
ped out of the community and sold to
Spokane dealers VINO hold them till
this time of the year and then ship
them back to Moscow, and take the
profits out of the community. I his
could be kept here in Moscow, and it
would tend to stimulate the egg market
all the year. 1t would be good thing
fol-. the local poultry owners, as well as
Moscow. 1t would give our city de.
sirable industry.

John I. Anderson of Kennedy Ford,
one of the earliest settlers in Latah
county, spent the day in Moscow. AT
ter paying his taxes he visited the
factory of the Idaho National, saying
he was we'll pleased with the success
the Idaho National is making. He be-
lieves it has a great future. Il am go
ing to have one of these" said Mr..
Anderson. This year l harvested
about hundred and fifty acres, pay
ing for the threshing alone $500 in
cash, and this is making no allowance
for the waste. 1t took a lot of my
crop to feed the horses with the big
rig, and then there is lot of waste.
Besides I had to bind and shock, and
there is the twine bill, which amounts
to lot.

DEMAND VOTE
FOR PRESIDENT

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 13.-Without
a dissenting vote the California senate
today adopted a resolution calling up
on congress to submit constitutional
amendment providing for the election
of president and vice president by dl-
rect, popular and nationwide vote.
Defending the resolution it was ar
gued that the electoral college con-
centrates the power Of the presidential
choice within new pivotal states and
that it is useless for republican to
vote in the south as it is for a dem
ocrat to go to the polls in Pennsyl-
vania people Of 35 states," said Sen
ator Sanford, waste time when they

Contrary to expectations Prosecu-
tor Fredericks has actively resumed
the work of bringing the other men i'm
plicated in the Times dynamiting to
Justice. 1t is understood a well known
Californian labor leader will soon be
arrested 1t is alleged he specifically
directed James Mcnamara in dyna-
hitting the Times.
1t is said this official is under the
Joint surveillance of Burns and the Of
fetal agents.
Before the Investigations were re-
slmed today Mrs. Lena Ingersoll and
Mrs. Belle LAWN, both of San Fran
cisco, with whom j. B. Mcnamara
boarded, were closeted for some time

Throughout the morning a long
stream of witnesses appeared in the
United States district attorneys Of

be arrested as soon as the witnesses
have testified.

There is another feature of this
business that might be mentioned, and
profitable one. Moscow should be
supplied with manufactured ice. There
is demand for it, and as yet. 1t ia
not supplied. With a modern cold
storage plant would be an ice factory,
the need of which cannot be ques-
toned. Look at the success of the
plant at Pullman, and at Boise.
know the same business is paying
handsome dividends.
Il want cold storage plant in Mos
COW for still another reason. 1t would
benefit our fruit growers. For illus
tration, we could keep our pears till
this time of the year when they would
bring fancy price. Cold storage
would benefit the producers OF this Sec
tion, and it looks like fine business
opportunity
There seems to be lot OF valuable
food for thought in the above sugges-
tions, and Moscow enterprise might
find it worth while to investigate this
proposition.

SPEED SKATERS
ARRIVE IN CITY
Champions Who Will Compete at

The party OF speed skaters to race

Detroit at noon today, having come
from Cleveland on a special Pullman.
The party Is In charge OF Allan l.

Mr.. blanchard Ia enthusiastic over
the popularity that skating has enjoy
ed during the last year or two. He

to one of the leading pastimes for
winter.

Ice skating before the public In this
part of the country stronger than
anything else,' Mr.. Blanchard says.
"A few years ago we had TO depend

large Kinks in Boston, New York.
Cleveland, Chicago and Detroit, the
condition or the weather has nothing
to do with our meets.
I'm Canada and in the northwest, ice
racing has long been recognized as a
leading form of sport, but In this Sec
ton 1t has been a little more back
ward In obtaining foothold. Visits
like those OF the Canadian and Ameri-
can champions to the principal cities
OF the east and middle west will
probably help much to popularize
speed racing"
Mr.. Blanchard himself is one of
the best fancy skaters in the coun-
try and will give an exhibition be-
tween races at the Arena this eve
ming. The program for the race meet
includes four events which will be
run in ten heats. Racing commences
at 8 o'clock.
