MORTON REGAINS RIGHTS
Presidents Pardon Enables
Him to Resume Practice.

Washington, Dec. 16.-Dr. William D.
Morton, who served a term in the At
lanta penitentiary with Julian Haw-
thorne for completely in mining stock SELL
ing frauds. has been pardoned by Presi-
dent Wilson, to restore his civil rights, as
of December 10.
DR.. Mortons pardon was asked by
many citizens of New York and several
prominent physicians. who pointed out
that under the state laws there he would
be debarred from earning his living In the
profession OF medicine unless his civil
rights were restored. President Wilson's
action was taken on those grounds ON
Gals here explained. and no such action
was taken as to Hawthorne because the
necessity was not acute.
DR.. Morton lives at No. 224 Riverside
Drive. When a Tribune reporter called
on him last evening he was in very
happy mood

During the last few years Mr.. Coz

building up his stock and adding new
varieties OF the choicest, pure bred
birds until this week, when he opened
his farm to the trade with thirteen
varieties of pure bred poultry.
Mr.. Cobbley is the first in the coun-

this important industry and it is to be
hoped his efforts will be crowned with
success.
Birds raised at home should be
healthier than those shipped in, there

LEGAL NOTICE

To The Honorable Board of County
Commissioners of Bingham County,
Idaho.
Gentlemen:
AS per your request for an opinion
regarding your authority to reduce the
amount of taxes levied on all property
in Bingham County in the year 1912,
will say that this is the duty of said
Board while setting as a Board OF
Equalization on the first Monday of
July in each year, this was done by
the Board during July, 1912, with re-
spect to the 1912 tax, and as the &C.
ton of the Board of Equalization in
this regard is final, with the excep-
ton of errors such as double assess
ments, property erroniously assessed
or which by reason of any bona fide
error of the assessor, should not be
collected, therefore with the above
mentioned exceptions, it is my opin
ion that the present Board of County
Commissioners of Bingham County
Idaho, have no authority to reduce OF
in any manner change the amount Of
taxes levied in 1912. as they appear
on the tax roll, in the office of the
Assessor of Bingham County. Idaho.
Respectfully submitted,
j. E. GOOD,

demonstration farms, and the National
Corn Exposition AS head of the ex.
tension department of Iowa State Col
lege of Agriculture he did work
which, Senator Cummins says, up to
the present time has increased the
wealth of Iowa $30,O0O,OOO.
The object of the H Service Blu.
reau is the promotion of agricultural
education, and a cooperation which
will tend to raise the whole tone of
commercial, industrial and farm life.
Since agriculture is the basis of pros
perity and progress, naturally farm
problems claim first attention. The aim
is higher efficiency, both on and off
the farm.
To do big work a big organization
Is necessary. Not only the bigness,
but the perfection of the International
organization as well appealed to Pro.
fessor Holden. The big general agen-
cies. scattered all over the United
States and Canada; the statesmen,
travellers and expert machine men:
the 10000 dealers-every one, so far
as possible, is to be made an apostle
of better farming.
For years the International Har.
vester Company has realized the i'm.
portance of service. 1t has spent mil.
lions of dollars in the perfection of la
bor-saving machines, and now the
company is going in for direct service
direct to the farmers. and direct to
the farmers children, that the meT
and women of tomorrow may be more
capable and so more prosperous thar
the men and women of today
1t is no longer a theory that II we
are to get the most out of life We
must raise more per acre. "Inten
sive farming" is in the air. It is thu
battle cry of peace and plenty. Blu
raising more is the result of mind
not muscle. We must know. Ant
not only that, we must Know w
know, and know why we know. W.
; must know good seed from bad, RICH
cultivation from wrong, and the why

LECTURE ON VITOSOPHY.
High Priest of New Thought Draws
Covd to Theater.

Lemons" peaches" and other fruits
and vegetables were picked out of the
audience last night at the New National
Theater that gathered to listen to the
lecture on "Matrimony' by DIR. William
Windsor, teacher of vitosophy, the doc
trine that holds that every man and
woman is represented by some object
in the animal. vegetable and mineral
kingdom. DR.. Windsor is the man who
diagnosed President Taft as being a buff
falo and a strawberry. and said that
President-elect Wilson was a lemon and a
member of the equine genus.
DIR. Windsor did not confine himself to a
discussion OF matrimony, admitting in his
Introductory remarks that he had merely
used that title for the purpose of drawing
a crowd. The talk dealt with character
reading and for the furtherence of this
purpose seven young women and seven
men were drafted from the audience for
examination.
The advice treated OF the proper vocs-
ton. environment. and climate for each
Of the subjects and of the sort Of life
partner they should choose. The first
three volunteers to take the stage for
examination at the hands OF DR.. Windsor
gave their names as Erin s. Loeb, ID. w.
Smith, and S. H. Slaught.

Hibernians Hear Views Of Represent.
atives on New lmmisra-
tion Laws.

Representative James NJ. Curley OF
Massachusetts, who said the Boston tea
party was really beer party. said yes
terday that illiteraoy should not exclude
applicants from admission TO this coun-
try as long as they are white of color
and are of sound mind and body. The
statement was made at the meeting OF
Division No. ] of the Ancient Order of
HIbernians at Potomac Bank Hall.
Georgetown, yesterday afternoon. p. T.
Moran, presiding.
Representative Curlcy said that II
would be a great mistake TO bar immi-
grants from this country who were not
up in letters. but who were physically
and mentally sound and who were
neither criminals nor paupers.
This country" said Mr.. Curley. "Owes
a great deal to men and women who, al
though ignorant OF the written word,
contributed much TO the material wealth
no welfare of this country. It Is these
men and women who built our railroads
and cultivated the desert until 1t bloomed
and brought forth the necesssries OF life
without which this country could not ex-
ist."
The speaker paid n glowing tribute to
the thrift and enterprise of the Irish,
the Germans. the Italians, the Jews, and
other foreign immigrants who now con-
stitute the most desirable class of citi'
zens and form the backbone of the ma
ton.
Representatives kinkeah OF New Jer-
sey, Donohue of Philadelphia. and Tag
CART OF Kansas spoke in the same Vein.
A resolution was passed that the mem
bers of Division No. / participate in the
inaugural parade and TO request all local
divisions to join.
The newly elected officers of the divi-
sion were installed by Joseph ID. Sulli-
van. district president of the order. The
officers are Joseph a. Daily, president;

HARMONY IS PROGRAM

Real .harmony, of the kind that the
Democratic menfolks are said never to
be able to have, is to be the keynote
of the convention OF the Woman's Ma
tionaI Democratic League at the New
day OF this week, officials of the League
said last night.
Cooperation of the District section Of
the Southern Wilson and Marshall
League and the District members OF the
Woman's National Democratic League is
pointed to sign of the promised con-
cord. Representatives of the two or
ganizations have been working assiduous-
ly together to make the convention sue
cess, and the belief that the elections
of officers and the settlement of pro-
posed amendments TO the constitution
will take place without considerable con-
ficts adds to the confidence that the
convention will be a peaceful one.
! The interest manifested by both Presi-
dent-elect Wilson and Mrs. Wilson in the
league and its policies is expected to
make the convention one of notable i'm
portance. The leagues plans to con-
duct a practically permanent campaign
of political education are said now to
command the attention of the President
elect and Mrs. Wilson. On that account
to keep the proceedings free of any dis
comforting incidents.
Many Nominations.
Mrs. John Sherwin Crosby. of New
York, President of the league, IL she is
a candidate for reelection, is to be
opposed by Mrs. Steven b. Ayres, wife
of the Representative from New York
District members of the League predict
tory IL she is nominated. As nominations
are to be made from the floor. it
is believed probable that numerous can
didates will be presented to the con-
vention.
The following committees were an
nounced last night:
