Bootleggers
Dismissed.
NO CONVICTION AT THIS TERM
OF COURT

The special term of court held
in Albion the week previous to
this did not 60 on record for
bringing to justice the bootlegers
of the county that were up for
trial this session.
This no doubt will be true in
the future unless men who are
summoned to appear as jurymen
will stay on the list without be-
ing excused and thereby obviate
the necessity of the sheriff picking
up whomsoever he can find
around the court house to serve
in this position. II is a well
known fact that there is a cert
ain class who hang around such
places for that very purpose and
when they are in the majority
then the few solid men who do
act as jurymen are powerless to
carry into effect the thing they
know is the best for the country.
1t would seem a very good
thing if the presiding judge at the
different sessions of court would
refuse to excuse anyone unless
conditions absolutely warranted
it, which ought not to be for any
trivial cause whatever.
The people of this county have
spoken against the evil of drink
and when the majority so speaks
the minority should be willing to
abide by the law.
Many people are today dabbl-
ing in drink who otherwise would
prate about their loyalty to the
constitution and the American
Flag and the question naturally
arises whether or not they are
the LOYAL CITIZENS they picture
themselves to be when the law is
not upheld in regard to the drink
ing of liquor and the selling OF it.

Sugar Beet
Growing has
Doomed
Colorado.

The Sugar Trust Investigation
that is going on by the federal
authorities in Washington is
doing much to show the good
results of Beet raising.
Mr.. A. L. Gibson, a real estate
man and sugar beet landlord OF
Colorado was brought before the
committee recently and among
other information given in relat-
ion to the investigation going on
said that the sugar industry of
that state had increased their
population and had been the
cause of bringing more banks
into the country and had increas-
ed their deposits wonderfully.
1t had also brought much labor
into that territory and in many
instances men, who were once
hired laborers had, through the
means earned from cultivating
beets, accululated sufficient mon
ev to buy farms and that now
many OF them own farms and do
the hiring of labor themselves.
This should be a splendid guar
antee that other sections which
are Just as favorable, if not much
more so, should begin as soon as
the sunshine will permit to raise
beets 1t is the universal verdict
that where ever this industry has
been started people become alb
normally independent SO far as
finances are concerned. This is
true because they not only are
independent of the money variat-
ions but as they are producers of
products which they themselves
consume they are not dependent
on the man who raises it for his
living, because he has that too,
SO why should men who have
every qualification. unless it is
the confidence to go ahead, hold
back his signature from the con-
tract necessary to insure this
industry in this valley.

Oakley an Ideal
Residence
Town.
MOST FAVORED OF SOUTHERN
IDAHO TOWNS IN CLIMATE.

The recent winds and cold wea-
ther that has been prevalent over
the state of late and the difference
in temperature noted at this
place is another demonstration
of it's being a very derirable resid-
ence town and also most favor
able for fruit raising particularly
as we'll as all other vegetation.
When the last cold snap came
over the state causing the temper
ature to drop to Is below zero
at Twin Falls, at Miner and
Burley 10 to Ia and along the
river similar registrations were
rec&s-ded and even at fair Boise
it went to 7 below while the low
est point reached at Oakley was
only 9 below is of interest to the
man looking for a place that will
make his home pleasant and
agreeable.
AT these points named along
the river in this valley the snow
was drifted making roads and
even railroads quite impossible
for some time while here the wind
did not reach such velocity as tc
do drifting that was at all a
hinderance to travellers. The
frost at at present is out of the
ground and the moisture is going
into the soil in place of running
off which is the usual thing when
it is frozen,
1t is very noticeable that it is
warmer in winter and cooler In
summer than farther out from
the mountain.
These are things thatcommend
themselves to nearly all classes
and the people of this section are
pleased to call attention to it for
the benefit OF those who desire
such a place to live. Itis not ex-
celled by any in climate, both

Legislature in
Session.
REPUBLICANS DECIDE ON
COURSE.

AS soon as the members of the
legislature met Republicans and
Democrats each held several
caucauses and the Republicans
decided that they would proceed
to enact such laws as would bring
immediate reliefto the Taxpayers
under the cash value method and
let all other bills go over till the
regular session of the Legislature
one year from now.
Just how tar they will be able
to do this is uncertain but they
may probably succeed, although
Governor Hawley is popping the
lash over the Democrats and If
he can get them all in line he may
be successful in changing the laws
he desires.
1t is evident that if anything is
accomplished it will have to be
done soon as 20 DAYS will be
gone in short time.

Like a Bob-cat in night time
Fred T. Dubis is again on the
fence ready to make his usual
howl, if his cunning manuvers
count for anthing to an observ-
ing public. 1t is reported from
reliable sources and their actions
in no way disguise the statement
that MIR. Dubois and Frank I.
Cannon are playing a double
game IN the Democratic National
ranks OF the coming campaign.
Dubois is said to be the right
hand man Champ Clark in boost
ing the latter for the nomination
of President while his pal Frank
]. Cannon is in the same relative
position for Woodrow Wilson
who is also seeking the nominal
ion for President. This is smooth
work on the part of Dubois and
Cannon because in the event Of
either Wilson or Clark securing
the Nomination the other forces
will Join in their election and the
two pals will become the heads
Democracy in their respective
states, but as to the wisdom dis
played on the part of Clark and
Wilson we question the sound
ness of their judgement.
Had these gentlemen have made
trip out West and learned the
very favorable( ?)standing which
these two running mates have
they would see their doom de-
picted in no uncertain terms.
SO far as the West is concerned
they would very likely give Bryan
a boost If Wilson and Clark en-
ploy such leaders as noted above
with Harmon out of the race he
would have a better chance of
winning the nomination than
ever before.
No doubt he has dropped on to
the condition as he has become
very active lately, and he knows
the strength of these two men in
the west and has no fears of their
receiving any support from West
ern States in behalf of Wilson
and Clark he thinks the prospects
are very bright.
Go it Bryan we think that
Western Democracy as a whole
will return and give you their
undaunted support if the other
candidates for the Presidency
have thrown their chances to the
wind i'll such way.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Suggestion for Medical College

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
In your issue of this date l read with
interest of the proposed reorganization OF
the Birmingham Medical college. And
the suggestions which here offer think
timely and worthy of consideration by
those directly concerned with the pro-
posed reorganization. Reared in Birming-
ham. took my first course of lectures
at the Birmingham Medical college, and
later graduated at another school. then
entered the practice of medicine here;
that was more than 10 years ago. But
as the science of medicine and surgery Is
of late years so intensely progressive,
I, like a multitude Of other southern doc.
tors. have found 1t expedient from time
to time to go away to other cities to
avail myself of needful instruction in the
higher art and progressive science In
those postgraduate schools maintained
for the especial benefit of doctors who
are ever seeking after higher IDEALS bet
ter methods and latest discoveries in
their chosen field of labor. In my sew
eral visits to such institutions I found
in every instance many doctors from the
south.

believe, the only post-graduate school
in the southern states, and while 1t Is
recognized as one of the best any

the location being so far south mill

ronage by those who are accustomed
to live in more northern and higher

templated reorganization. and the max
ing of the Birmingham Medical col

university and the undoing of the med
ical college at Mobile, which is now
an integral part of the state university
and which Is a school of Class A, whose
matriculates and graduates are recog-
nized by all other high-grade colleges.
l would here interpose my sincere OBJ
lection for these reasons. Mobile being
a seaport city of large and growing
population with an ever abundance of
material for clinic work, and having
fine winter climate together con-
spire to make Its retention most de-
sirable. Now. what l wish to suggest
is this: That the trustees of the Bir-

Medical college into high-class post
graduate school and have it adopted as
a part of state university.
With a competent faculty an abundance
of clinical material, fine hospital facilities,
central location, our splendid climate and
the eclat of university connection would
suffice to bring to Birmingham thousands
of doctors who would expend hundreds of
thousands of dollars In the city, in their
attendance upon lectures and demonstra-
lions in the school, but greater and
more noble reason is, that such school
would prove of inestimabe value to the
by increasing knowledge and ability add
to the greater usefulness of those upon
whom we must ever rely for medical and
surgical help in time of need. Such an
institution here in Alabama would within
few years so raise the standard of ex-
cellence In the profession as regards pro-
fessional ability and worthiness of the
confidence of their clients as would OBJ
viate any necessity for any of our citi-
zens going away from the south in search
of expert medical treatment. 1 would

do strenuousy oppose any measure or

Medical college. which was founded in
1853 and is one of the oldest and noblest
institutions of the state.
In 1897 it became the official medical
department of the State university, and
ADOPTED the curriculum. rules and regu-
lations prescribed by the highest class
medical colleges, and is, therefore, in
every essential a first class school of
medical training. Would it not then APP

calculated to initiate against its prog

effort to establish another medical col
lege with university connection, If sue
cessful, engender rivalry, increase ex.
pense by the state and possibly work out
the undoing of both schools? But a post
graduate school under the patronage of
the state. located here, would in no wise
affect the college at Mobile, since the
school here would be open only to those
who already have received the degree
4 W and who would come to ac-
quire that proficiency and experiences in
whatever special line of medical science
they may elect as their special branch
of practice. Such a school would not

an educational center and of greater
