MOTION FILMS
MADE ROBBERS

The Manoa valley highway robbery
stunt pulled off by a number of the
young hopefuls. of that district can
be traced directly to the influence Of
the moving pictures shown in the
local theaters. At least that is what
the father of Uichi, the Japanese boy
arrested with the others, says.
MY boy see that thing at moving
pictures" said the father this morn
ing. "Then he come back and tell
me, then he go and do all the same. -
Joe Silva, Henry Kea, Ella Long,
Dude Maikai and Uichi were ar
rested yesterday for holding up a
Chinaman in the valley on Saturday
night at the point of a mans size Colt
revolver and relieving him of his
purse, which contained a dollar.
The gun was located later on and
was loaded when found.
The case will come in the juvenile
court tomorrow, but will probably lie
referred to the city and county attor-
ney, as the charge is one of felony.
The youths in question have been
making themselves a nuisance to res,
idents of the valley for some time
past.

LOOKING
OVER QUARTERS

Judges Cooper and Whitney, of the
circuit court, spent some time this
morning, in company with Superin-
tendent of Public Works Marston
Campbell, in looking over the old Y.
NJ. c. A. building, the proposed tenn
pOrary location of the various terri
torial courts, during the time the judi
ciary building is undergoing repairs.
Tentative location was made of the
various court rooms and chambers
which will be needed. 1t will not be
earlier than the first of January be-
fore the proposed change is made.
According to the present plans, it
will be necessary to find some place
outside the old Y NJ. c. A. building,
now owned by the local Elks lodge,
for filing records. The supreme court
will be given the main auditorium on
the second floor, part of which room
will be used for chambers.
Judge Robinson, who will handle
criminal work next term, will prob
ably have the old library and games
room on first floor. Judge Cooper,
with civil jury cases, will have the
rooms on the second floor back of
those occupied by the supreme court
Judge Whitney will have the front
rooms on the first floor.

A PLEA TO THE
MOTHERS OF
IDAHO COUNTY

Dear Women: The Idaho County
Reform League, an organization
banded together for the purpose Of
elevating the morals of Idaho county,
present and future, desire to appeal
to you for that genuine, loyal support
which good women can give to a good
cause. Be it understood now and
always, that excesses Of all kinds are
deplorable, and that stimulants are
harmful when indulged in too freely.
money is the root Of all evil" says
the Bible. A bad woman can destroy
many otherwise noble lives. Stimu-
lants, money and women are not of
themselves bad. They may be abused
by frivolous man. The elevation Of
society, the morality of the community
and home life, is the end which this
organization desires to attain, and it
must be understood now and ever,
that if this county reverses its judg-
ment as to local option prohibition,
this organization will maintain its
entity for the accomplishment Of the
ends and purposes pledged in its
initial statement.
The dear women of Idaho county
should forget the dire predictions Of
the extremist and the intolerant i'll
dividual, that the morality of their
children will 60 to the very bow-wows
if there is saloon" in the com.
munity. What a lame excuse it is
for father or mother to accept the
foolish suggestion that the saloon is
or can be made more attractive to
children than the home, and that the
association of the bartender is pre-
ferable to the boy than the love, the
devotion and the friendship of the
father. The good women Of Idaho
county know that there is no tenn.
perance in Idaho county today; they
know that prohibition does not pro
hibit under local option prohibition
they know that licensed, restricted
drinking place, conducted according
to the high grade pledge of ninety-fve
business men who have signed it, will

Liquor Traffic When Properly
Regulated.
PRACTICAL PROOF GIVEN
Idaho County Reform LeagueAsls
for Like Conditiouss

Conditions in eastern Oregon,
Pendleton and LeGrande for Instance,
furnish striking examples q the in
tentions of the Idaho Reform League,
if this county votes for the licensed
drinking place instead Of the '.blind
pigs, the "boot-legging joints" and
the ''speak easies.'
Pendleton and LeGrande city coun-
ellis have passed ordinances prohibit
ing chairs in drinking places; no
screens or frosting are allowed to
obstruct the vision Of the passerby,
even to the farther end of the build
ing where bar is located. No dice
is allowed in place where strong
drink is sold or consumed. Such
place must close at IL o'clock in the
evening except Saturday nights, when
they are privileged to run until IL
o'clock. They may open s a m.
every morning except Sunday, when
they are closed all day. A bond of
81, 1000, is required for each recipient
of q license and if any one files
complaint in court that drink is sold
to a minor, or to an intoxicated per-
son, a premium is paid such informant,
equal to half of the bond, which is
forfeited, and half Of the fine imposed
by the court, which ranges from $50
to $500, and carries with it a cancel
lation of his license to do business in
the Incorporation ever thereafter.
In Pendleton before these strin-
gent laws were passed, there was 20
saloons Under the regulation which
they have now, there are II. In
LeGrande there was previously Is
saloons; under the modern plan
adopted, there are s.
In Pendleton the license has been
raised to $1,000 per annum, and in
LeGrande it has been placed at $1250
per annum. The recipients of these
licenses are the better grade of men
and they and the public are we'll
pleased with the new Innovation.
1t augers therefor better state Of
morals; it brings revenue to the
schools, the municipalities and the
highways; it places the sale and con-
sumption Of intoxicants Immediately
under police suryeilence, and it re-
moves the possibility of drinking
adulterated intoxicants, or encourag-
ing perjury on the part Of either
those engage din the business or their
friends.
Soberly, sincerely and patriotically
the Idaho County Reform League
asks the voters of this county to join
them in making this change, not for
the saloon men, not for the encourage
Of intemperance. but for the elevation
Of society in all its many phases. in
which the voters and the tax payers
Of this county should be deeply in
terested.

County Dads Visit Elk.

Last week the county commits
sioners and the prosecuting attorney
were in Elk adjusting some road mat
ters and succeeded in settling the
Litchfield- Maxwell road fued in a
manner satisfactory to the contending
parties The trip out was one filled
with exciting experiences and one apt
to be remembered by the COM
missioners for some time. Leaving
Elk shortly after noon Saturday, a
heavy snow storm was encountered
and bitter winds blowing from the
north. Shortly after leaving the
Mountain House wheel on the con-
veyance broke down, very nearly
precipitating the county dads to the
bottom Of a canyon. A pole was
substituted for the broken wheel and
the journey continued to Clearwater
where the commissioners took the
stage to Sites and left the county
attorney to enjoy the remainder Of the
trip alone. Atty. Griffith states the
reduction plant is about ready fol
operation and when the roaster ar.
rives, which is on the way, operations
will begin. A quantity of ore is or
the dump and enough promised t.
keep the plant running through the
winter.
