accompanied him from Salisbury, was
with him when he died. His wife ar
rived a few minutes afterward.

ing was dismissed and the audience
fIled out quietly and waited outside for
word from the stricken man. When
his death was announced the crowd
dispersed in silence.
The physicians could not at once de-
termine the cause of death. DR..
Knight came from Salisbury on late
train and had to hurry to get to the
hall on time for the opening. He had

evening might have brought on sud-
den attack Of heart failure.

CHIEF Of STAFF FOR
STATE NATIONAL GUARD
Adjutant General Verbeck Gre
ates Position at Command
of Governor Dix.
GEN. O'RYAN SURPRISED
Order Was Not Prompted by
Reported Differences Be-
tween Officers, Says the
Adjutant General.

Albany, Oct. 4.-By command OF Gov
ernor Dix, Adjutant General Verbeck
to-day issued an order creating the po-
sition Of chief Of staff Of the military
forces Of the state. The order says his
duties shall be analogous to those Of
chief OF staff of the United States
army, which duties shall be discharged
by the adjutant general Of the state u"
General Verbeck said that the order
was not prompted in any way by poll
tics or due to the reported differences
said to exist between himself and
Major General John F. Organ, COM
mander Of the national guard. He
stated that the order "is In conformity
to the policy he has adopted since he
has been in office and conforms to the
usage of the United States army"
He further said that In the perform
ance OF his duies he VIII under the
authority of the Governor, call for In
formation. make Investigations issue
instructions and exercise all other
functions necessary to secure proper
harmony and efficiency Of action upon
the part Of those under his supervision.
The supervisory power vested In the
chief Of staff covers primarily duties
pertaining to the command, discipline.

ments, military education and instruc-
tion ard kindred matters
Assemblyman Cuvillier. ex-chairman
OF the Assembly Committee on Mill
tary Affairs. in statement to-day, ar-
proved the Governors order. The state
ment says:
The position OF major general is that
of the highest ranking officer OF the line,
whose sole duty is that OF the com
mander OF the troops. as prescribed ny
the military law; but has nothing what.
ever to do with the administration or
the affairs OF the national guard.
In my opinion there should he gen
eral stan to replace the military counolI;
which IL useless body. The general
stafT, composed OF the brigadier generals
OF the various brigades. would formulate
the policy OF the national guard and
recommend such laws TO the Legislature
for the improvement OF the guard.
General verbeck also announced that
At bis urgent request Lieutenant Colo
mel c. A. Simmons had withdrawn his
resignation as an assistant adJutant
general and would remain In the adju-
tant generals Office. Colonel Simmons
recently accepted n position as adjutant
general on the staff OF General Organ.
General Verbeck said he desired Colo

Nobody could have been more surprised
over the order issued by Adjutant Cen

WHATS that? A chief OF staff7 Why.
we don't have any such position In this

night.
"Our law on the subject II quite clear.
A military council Is provided Tor by
Section IS, and this body exercises the
duties OF a chief OF STAFF. The adjutsnt

Efforts for Peace.
Supreme importance now attaches 10

The question now under considera-

The danger of delay is shown by the
fact that Bulgarian troops have al
ready crossed the Turkish frontier.
The position as between the contend

changed and may be described as fol-
lows:
The Balkan league, comprising Bul-
ssr,a Servia. Greece and Montenegro,
demand that existing conditions IN
Macedonia, the yilayet Of Adrianople

THREE CORNfR[D FIGHT
As Seen by the Editor of One of the
North Side Papers.

Over at Twin Falls there is raging
a three-cornered fight that is pretty
one. 1t is between the local poultry
association, the local merchants asso-
citation, and an out-of-the-state mail
order house. Representatives of the
poultry association accepted Cor were
about to accept some advertising for
the mail order house. The merchants
association learned of it and voted to
withhold any patronage from the poul-
try show premium list When the
mail order house heard of the matter
it promptly waded into the scrap. All
this has resulted in the mail order
house getting more free advertising
than it could have got in any other
manner by paying cash for it, The
officers of the poultry association
claim the merchants are over sensi-
tive about sending out of town, county
or state for goods. 1t points out that
the local banks get their bank checks,
deposit slips, and nearly all other sta
tionery printed outside; that many of
the merchants get their order books.
counter bills, ETC., printed in the east.
and some of these outside printers,
the News will say, furnish a cheap
letterhead gratis with orders of large
amounts for other printing which
catches some of the local merchants.
Many of the local business people
never give the local printer an order

of the belief that Bull ranchers can

March 1S-19-20, if only they will get

Company will be prepared to make a
stock shipment at that time and ranch

BRUNEAU STATE PROJECT.
G. A. Baird Declares Preparations Are
Being Made For Big Dam.

Salt Lake City, Feb. 21.-On his way
from American Falls, Ida, to Chicago
G. A. Baird, one of the firm engaged
on the Brueau reclamation project
said today:
We are not ready to say just when
work may begin on the dam at Ameri-
can Falls. We are continuing prep
arations for it,
There were some deals which had
to be settled by law, such as the pur-
chase of lands within the district tc
be inundated, and we have been busy
on them. Work may begin this fall
but no great progress would be made
for about a year"
On being asked if the enterprise had
been financed, Mr.. Baird declined to
talk on that phase of the subject
Plans for the project call for dam
more than mile long and so feet
high, the submerging of the whole
townsite of American Falls, and the re-
clamation of 600,UOO acres of land
Two hundred thousand dollars has
been expended in preliminary work on
the project.
The foregoing dispatch, taken from
the Boise Statesman, contains all the
information, and more, that can be
gathered here. The people of Ameri-
can Falls know absolutely nothing
OF the progress that is being made non
