MOSCOW IS
GOING AHEAD

F. M. Johnson returned yesterday
from Portland, Oregon, whore he spent
a few days. On the train home he met
a number of travelling men. When
they found that Mr.. Johnson was from
Moscow they said: well, we under
stand that Moscow is going to pave.
That is good thing. We are glad to
know that Moscow is waking up. Why,
we travelling men are tired of having
to roll up our pants when we visit
your town. We usually have to get
pole and pilot ourselves across the
streets to keep from getting in all
over during the fall, winter and spring.
Moscow ought to have something bet
ter"
The news that Moscow contemplates
paving is spreading all over the coun-
try, and people are saying good things
about our town. 1t is accepted by
people everywhere as evil
dence of the fact that Moscow is 60

to the Americans and other foreigners

Madero, the commissioners said, was
not called to the presidency by the
people, but was accepted by the revo-
lutionists because no one else came
forward.

LAW GRADUATES ALL
ADMITTED WITH HONOR

The first graduating class of the
law department of the university, is
the best prepared class of young men
that ever took the bar examination
before the Supreme Court of Idaho.
The seven members of the class were
all admitted to the bar, passing with
honor.
This was the verdict of that high
tribunal Saturday after looking over
the papers prepared by the seven SEN
iors of the u of /. law class of 1912.
1T is the best set of papers ever offer
ed this court" was the judges de-
cjsion. And the supreme court con-
graduated the faculty of the universe
ty upon the preparation The students
had been given.
Two hundred and fourteen questions
comprised the examination given the
young attorneys, and they answered
them with high percentage of cor
rectness. While the examination was
not altogether technical it covered the
ground of the law, and the Idaho
practice, and was the most rigid ever
given in the state.
The successful young attorneys are:
Harry Bond of Standpoint, c. H. Buff
ington of Glenwood, Iowa, who will
practice in this state, James Harris of
Weiser, w. H. Mason of Nampa w. j.

ENGLAND FACES WORST STRIKE OF
ALL HISTORY IN ALLIED TRADES

= LONDON, April S.-There is de.
cided movement on foot in trades
union circles today in favor of a gen.
eral strike which may make the coal
strike look like mere episode.
The movement was encouraged by
the threats Of the anti-IabOr members
in parliament to try to repeal the
trades disputes act of 1908, which per-
mits peaceful picketing ana introduce
in its place legislation providing for
compulsory arbitration of Industrial
troubles.
"Our organization is practically per-
fected," said W. A. Appleton, secre-
tary of the general federation of
trades unions.
You may rest assured that any at
tempt to deprive us of our right to
strike or even to restrict that right,
will be promptly met by an action t.4at
would put such a proposal out of court
for the next generation"
Besides the movement of general

William G. Niblack, president of the

dirty political trick and in line with
the campaign of lies and vilainous
vituperation being waged against
Governor Wilson, chiefly by several
newspapers. Detectives have good
description of the thieves. The pub
lication of any of the letters will also
