Louis Becker and William Roberts,

Mr.. Meyer said he often has cautioned
Clemenson about his work, but had no
idea the man had taken his position
so seriously.
Clemenson, who is thirty-three years

children. He told the police that Mr..
Meyer had harassed him and his
family for months, and for that reason
he decided to kill him.

SAYS TAFT DOES
NOT DEPEND UPON
CONTESTS TO WIN
Hilles Declares All President
Asks Of Committee Is
Square Deal.

Secretary Hilles issued an emphatic
statement today in reply to a claim
made by Senator Dixon that a majority
OF the Republican national committee is
with Colonel Roosevelt.
The statement reads as follows:
"The members of the national COM
mlttee, in overwhelming majority, are
supporting the candidacy of President
Taft. This is demonstrated by let
ters, kilograms, interviews, and public
statements, in which the members have
made their positions perfectly clear.
We are confident that the committee
will decide all contests fairly and on
their merits. All we ask Is that we
shall be given a real square deal.
But President Taft's renomina ton
will not depend upon the decision of
majority of uncbntested delegates.

Then they put Cooper through the
third degree and they say he admit

sisted, however. that he had not done
so to play an April Fool joke on the
police, but because he was worried over
losing $500 which had dropped from his
pocket, and wished to account for the

OBJECTION MADE
70 THE PAYMENT
Of WATER BILL
City Councilman Claims Too
Much Is Charged The
Public Dance Hall Ordi-
nance Is Passed.

bill Of $1S for water supplied to the
Carnegie library by the Boise Artesian
Hot and Cold Water company was q
bone Of contention at the council meet
ing yesterday afternoon, Councilman
Eichelberger having raised an objection
to the payment of the bill for the rea-
son that the former library board haS
turned 1t down and for the further rea.
son that he did not believe that so
much water was used at the libarary
as the bill indicated and therefore he
moved that the bill be held up until the
next meeting and in the meantime that
. test be made of the meter. His mo-
ton was seconded by Councilman
Woodcock and carried. although Coun-
Gilman Finegan and Harrington refused
to vote.
The squabble over the payment of
the bill came toward the end of tho
meeting when the bills for the month
came up for payment. Mr.. Harrington
moved that the bills be paid when tho
eagle eye of Mr.. Eichelberger caught
in the list which he was scanning the
library water bill, which he had previ-
ously opposed, and he again opposed
payment, although the company had cut
the bill in half. Harrington argued that
the bill should be paid, stating that for
years the library board had been pay
ing but the flat rate, while each month
the bill had gone over the minimum
which had been charged up until the
amount grew to $40 and as the company
had cut the bill in half, he felt it should
be paid and did not think it was too
high. After the vote on postponeINent
OF the bill until next meeting, Finegan
suggested that test of the meter be
