Reasons Why You Should Carry an
Account With a Bank.

Because your money is safer in bank
than elsewhere.
Because a bank account helps and en-
courages you TO save.
Because paying bills by cheek is the
simplest..and most convenient, ard the
check becomes a receipt.
Because a check book is safer to
carry around than wallet with money

lost nothing; with the purse its different.
Because bank account gives You a

ALoss to Meridian.

~ k-~S~t - Hs~e S~~sss~ss
Personally the appointment by
the Nampa- Meridian directors of
aG. A. Remington as secretary will
be approved but it is regretted
that the treasurer's office will
be moved from Meridian to
Nampa. The appointmentof of Mr..
Remington as secretary to take the
place of the Nampa man is not
compensation for the reason that
headquarters will still remain at
Nampa, and the secretary will be
there several days each week.
Under the old arrangement the
secretary was supposed to spend
half of his time in Meridian, but
he was found to be at the other end
of the line most of the time,e for
one reason or another.
Now the taxes can more. con-
, veniently be paid in Meridian.and
there is more acreage under the
Meridian district than around
Nampa. but now 1t will be neces-
sary to 60 there to settle and the
change will be an inconveniencetto
hundreds of farmers. Trading the
secretaryship to Meridian for the
dreasuryship has been proposed
several times before by the Nampa
people and the Meridian members
have as often refused, but Mr..
Dewey has at last secured the
plum for a Nampa bank, and Me-
rfdian, to use slang term, 'gets
it in the neck"
The report Of the proceedings is
as follows:
At the regular meeting Of the
Board of Directors of Nampa &
Meridian Irrigation district, held
at Nampa on Tuesday, officers for
the ensuing year were elected as
follows: President, e. H. Dewey,
of Nampa; secretary, Guy Rem
ington, of Meridian; treasurer, J.
A. Givens, of Nampa; managing
director, Danial M. Barker, of Me-
ridian; superintendent, Chris Har-
ton, of Boise; attorney, H. E.
McElroy, of Boise. Director
elect, H. B. Carpenter. of Merid-
ian was present and qualified as
successor to A. r. Stalker.
After transacting the usual
routine business, the following
resolution was unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, the extensive plans of
the u. s, Reclamation Service for
Boise Valley we're made possible
by the organization of this dis
trict anh the purchase of the Ri
denbaugh canal system, and Mr..
A. r. Stalker, the retiring member
Il onr board. was most active and
sfuential in accomplishing said
result and has faithfully served
the public as director of the dis
trict from its organization;
1t therefore gives us pleasure to
express our appreciation of the
public spirited service rendered
by Mr.. Stalker and the secretary
lis directed to spread this resolu-
tion on the minutes of the board.

The new Wisconsin industrial COM
mission has undertaken campaign
of education among the manufacturers
of the state in the matter of safety
devices and will shortly furnish ex-
hibits, stereopticon lectures and bull
letins with the aim of decreasing the
number of accidents in industry.
The plans of the commission in this
regard were explained by John r..
Commons, a member of the body, in
a discussion of the industrial COM
mission law before the South Side
Community club in the University
settlement. One of the proposed ex-
hibits will be in Milwaukee, he said,
another in Madison and third will
travel through the state.

commission was investigating safety

;tion as framed. He said he could
hardly do so and it was reframed in
practically the same shape.
II would not think him guilty any
quicker because he was a union man
than because he was not" was the
reply. The answer was disappoint-
ment and Davis began anew.
Davis framed a score of questions,
trying to have the witness admit. he
would rather believe the Times was
blown up by members of organized
labor than by non-members, should
it finally be proven that the struc-
fture was actually destroyed by dyna-
mite, but in each instance the state
objected and was sustained.
He finally framed one question that
got by, asking:
''Would you, if it was disclosed at
this trial that the Times was illegally
destroyed by dynamite, attach any
evidence of crimina1ity to this defen-
dant merely because he is a member
Of organized labor?"
ct certainly would not. That fact
could not influence me- ::
DAVIS then went back. to Robinson's
statement of Wednesday that he had
given his version of the destruction
of the Times and asked him for
these views.
The state strenuously objected, but
the question was allowed and Robin
son said:
II told some people that there was
grave doubt as to how this building
had discussed the explosion with his
son, who Is q member of the Elec-
trical' Workers union. When Davis
asked why. he had denied <Wednes-
day any such discussion, the witness
explained he had not thought it ne
cessary to do SO. His son, he said,
had told him that if members Of

case. Later, however, it was admit
ted there was no connection between
this subpoena and the alleged prin..

AS matter of fact it was learned
Thursday that there are nineteen
names in the original indictment

PRIVATE SLEUTH IS
DENOUNCED BY JUDGE
Connecticut Court Charges Pri-
vate Detective With Attempt
At Frame Up.
Innocent Man Arrested and Later
swears Out Warrant Against
Man Hunter.

MIDDLETOWN, Conn.,, Oct. &c.
Private detectives are getting into dis
repute and their attempts to fasten
crime on innocent people for profit
will soon become an abomination.
Even the courts are beginning to real
lie the nefarious nature of the work,
are discharging the innocent victims
while the sleuths are incarcerated
In MiddletOwn, Private Detective
Harnett suffered scathing rebuke
at the hands of Police Judge Pearne,
four men had been made the victims
of a frame up at his hands. The
court discharged the men and later
one of them took out body writ for
John Harnett of Boston, the private
detective who had caused their arrest.
While enjoying all the comforts of
a hotel the detective was arrested
and failing to secure bondsmen will
find himself the inmate of cell
similar to that occupied by his VIC
Tins for a month. It is believed,
however, that the New Haven, Hart
ford & New York railroad will come
to his rescue and that he will be
spared the indignities that were
heaped upon the innocent men whom
he caused to be arrested, because of
his desire to become the possessor of
a $4,000 reward offered by the rail-
road for the conviction of parties who
it was believed had wrecked the New
Haven express train at Maromas on
Aug. 81, causing the death Of one pas
senger.
AS usual stool pigeon, in the per-
son of Albino Alessio was used by the
detective. A plausible tale told by
him aided the detective to secure the
arrest of the innocent men. Their
counsel has secured body writ fol-
him and it is believed important reve-
lations will be forthcoming at his tria
and that of the detective.
The crime with which te acquitted
men were carged was a serious one
and long terms of imprisonment
| would have been meted out to them i.
| they had been convicted. Had the de.
tective proved successful in carryins
out his frame up four innocent mer
| would have suffered untold torture,
| while he and his stool pigeon would
have revelled on the $4,000 blooG
| money.
