His pockets were all bulging with yell

He bought the street car system and

And while attending meeting he would

Surely if Robnett was so gully are not
the other officials who are under SEN
tence for participating in the same
steal just as guilty. The president and
cashier of this bank were tried and
found guilty, and just because they had
money, have been able to keep out of
the penitentiary. Robnett was only
tool
But to come to the subject that Gov
ernor Hawley has so bitterly attacked,
it is at once seen that ne is on the
right side, as he is attacking the policy
of the government in sending special
prosecutors to the state for the sole
purpose of convicting some one, and
making a reputation for themselves.
AS he says:
"Some good may result from this
miserable affair. The people of the
whole state will become thoroughly
aroused by this failure of justice. Their
wrath will be directed against these
special agents aud these special pros
ecutors, who for four long and weary
years have been responsible for the
lamentable conditions surrounding the
government cases in the United States
courts.
"And it is to be hoped that the pro-
tests of the people of Idaho will be so
loud that the authorities in Washington
cannot disregard them, but will as a
consequence rid this state forever of
the offensive presence of these special
agent and special prosecutors, who
have been responsible for this outrage
GUS failure of justice and will thus per-
nit the regularly constituted officers of
the court to manage, as is their duty
and province, the United States busl-
ness before that tribunal"
1t is understood that the governor
will take the matter up with the con-
gressional delegation, and request an
investigation. In supplemented
statement the governor said:
"In commenting upon the Robnett
pardon / do not wish to be understood
as rejecting upon President Taft.
l believe the president is an honest and
high-minded man who desires to do his
full and entire duty. He has in my
judgment been imposed upon by the
department of justice in this matter.
1t is but natural that the president
should depend upon his attorney-gen-
eral is responsible, 1 believe for this
outrage. 1t is through him the special
prosecutors have been appointed anc
can continue to usurp the functions OF
the United States attorney and his
assistants. 1t is to be presumed thai
he was acquainted with the methods
about to be adopted, that he was ad
vised in regard to the procedure in the
Lewiston bank case and assented to the
arrangements eliminating in the pardon
of Robnett."

Teachers to Be Examined in Library
Science.

Mrs. T. R. Brewitt, librarian at the
at the Lewiston Normal, in recent
interview said: 1.-The law now requires
candidates for second grade certificates
in Idaho to pass an examination in cat
alleging and use of school libraries. AS
most teachers are not familiar with
library science, 1 have prepared a
phamphlet as an aid to those who will
take the examinations as well as for
thse who wish to inform themselves in
school library management. Upon re-
quest this will be sent without charge
to any one who wish it. The PAM
phlet outlines such subjects as: CLASH
fication of books, their selection and
ordering, card cataloging, reference
books, picture collections, current per-
iodicals and special reading lists. This
is the only bulletin on library science
issued by and state institution in Idaho
and should be in the hands of every
teacher in the state.

Work Tells the Story.

Not every prospect will develop into
a producing and paying mine, but there
are great many prospects which, if
opened up, would prove to be bonanzas,
but which are never given the chance
to prove their value. A prospect, be it
aver so valuable, ever so promising, is
worth no more than just so much desert
land if money and muscle are not ex-
pended in It's development. AS mat
tar of fact, it might as well be owner
less; or, better still, open for location,
so that it might be taken up by some
one who believes that the acquisition of
a prospect means that the sole object
and purpose of mining is to engage in
mine development and exploratory
work.
In the mining industry it is work that
tells the story; and it is only by persis~
tent effort that success eventually
crowns an undertaking of this char

abandon everything, can never bring
into existence great mine; but cases
have been recorded where the owners
of a prospect, although lacking in
finances, have been able to develop it
into dividendpayer, after period of
several years, although work was
carried on only at intervals. In such
cases the owners would work for wages
in some neighboring mine or district,
returning to their camp when able to
buy provisions and supplies. Such a
condition would necessarily mean slow
progress; but, at last, the objective
point was reached, and the ore uncover

L. II. Bailey.-The attributes OF
n good farmer are these: The abil-
ity to make good and comfortable
living on the land. To rear a fam
ily carefully and well. To be of good
service to the community. To leave
the farm more productive than wnen
taken. To be a good farmer in
this sense will be much more to
ones credit than merely to be a
millionaire. We need great many
good farmers much more than we
need multiplicity of millionaires.
It is worth any mans time to leave
a piece of land more productive
than when he found 1t. as con-
tribution to the. WELFARE of society

HELD FOR OPIUM SMUGGLING.
chinaman Among Whose Papers Was
Found Reference to Segel Murder.

New York, Feb. l.-Charles Boston.
or Boston Charlie, whose real name is
Ii Quong Jung, the Chinaman who was
arrested by federal officers on Monday
night in connection with the recent
opium smuggling raids, and in whose
seized papers was found reference to
the murder Of Elsie Segel, came into
court yesterday nattily dressed, with
fingers sparkling with diamond rings,
and smiling gave $500 bail for his sp-
pearance when wanted The federal
agents say they have reason to believe
that Boston Charlie is the real head OF
the gang of opium smugglers whose
operations they are seeking to uncover.
The specific complaint in the case made
by Isaac Harris, an acting deputy sur
veyor, charges on information and be-
lief that on Jan. 20 Charlie Boston "un-
lawfully, knowingly and wilfully re-
eeived and concealed a can containing
prepared smoking opium which had been
imported into the United States con-
trary to law" Acting Deputy Harris
in the complaint explains that the
grounds for his belief are based upon
an official investigation and converse
tions with persons whose names. he SAYS,
ut would impede the course Of Justice
to disclose at this time, but who will
be produced at any hearing upon the
complaint" When the bail bond was
accepted, the Chinaman shook hands
with Marshal Henkel and left the fed
eral building with friends. The ex-
animation was set for Feb 10,
