EDITOR HERALD

In justice to myself and in de-
tense of our State Law relative
to Intoxicating liquor. | desire
to make a short statement. 1t
is rumoured IN some sections cf
the County that l have been in
sympathy with certain alleged
bootlegRing which has recently
come to light, and which the
ofhcers OF the law has been in
vestigating, as well as having
more or less liquor at my home.
l desire to brand such Statements
as false. and to say that the
same has been Circulated to
bring in disrepute not only myself
but also the law of which | was
the Author, and which | succeed
ed IN passing through the last
legislature: Before the last
election | made a campaign of
the county and discussed more
or less with the people the illicit
trafhc OF liquor going on in our
county, and pledged myself to
the people if elected | would do
all In my power to strenx then
our local option law, as we'll a.
to stop the sale of SO much Al
cohol which was causing so
much trouble in the dry Count
les. | was elected by a large
majority which demonstrated
that the people were in harmony
with me on this question, true
to my pledge and with the as
sistance of some of the best men
IN this state, the present law
was drafted and presented to
the legislature, and by a large
majority passed both houses
which is sufficient evidence that
majority of the people of Idaho
desied some such legislation.
The wholesale liquor people.
the old boozer and people who
oppose any and all kind of
liquor legislation are doing ali
IN their power to discredit the
law, and they say if the people
OF the County had another op-
portunity to express themselves
they would vote the County wet
but we don't find any of the
agitators circulating a petition
asking for an election. On the
other hand if l read the signs of
the times Alright the people are
gong to continue this fight un-
tiiiold king Alcohol is relegated
to the rear for all time, for there
is nothing in all the world so
Obstructive ofthe American home
and the human race as the use
OF liquor. and the people of this
State will not rest until a law
is placed upon our Statue books
giving us state wide prohibition,
and those who do not like our
laws can move to NOR eonpen.
ial climes:
In conclusion Mr. Editor be.
lieve 1T the duty of all good
citizens to uphold and sustain
our laws and see that they are
enforced and then if a law IS
written upon our statutes that is
not good the people of our S4ate /
by their representatives can have
it repealed, and thereby improve
our citizenship.
Respectfully,
H. C. HAIGHT.

Hay Stacker
Question.
FRICTION TO BE AVOIDED
TELEPHONE COMPANY OFFER
SOLUTION.

Boise, Idaho, July II. 1913.
Especial to the Herald).-The
annual argument between the
agriculturists and the public util-
ity companies which operate
wires IN the State of Idaho again
bobs up. Ever since the invent
ion OF the mechanical hay stack
er, its transportation along and
across the highways has been the
source of much controversy be.
tween the ranchmen and the wire
owning corporations. The for
mer has always maintained his
right to move his harvesting
apparatus as he saw fit, frequen-
tly with disastrous results in the
matter of broken wires and in
terrupted service.
The wire owning corporations
have relied, in the past. upon the
Idaho laws. which permit them
to recover heavy damage. and
have based their objections to
the ranchers' arbitrary action in
hauling stackers through the
lines on the grounds that many
innocent users of wires service
power, light and transmission
were caused seriousinterruptions
and inconvenience.
There seems to be a middle
ground in the controversy, how
ever, and this has been taken by
The Mountain States Telephone
and Telegraph Company, which,
through Division General Man.
ager DeNike at Salt Lake City,
today made tn following an
nouncement: "Nocharge will BE-
made to the ranchmen who Je-
sire to move hay stacke - 4oSS-2ugh
the lines of the telepA %ssnp-
any, provided Nampl~ dctice is
given to the telephone company
and transportation furnished to
lineman who will cut the nece-
ssary wires and repair the same.
This method insures the least
possible interruption to the tele-
phone service and should be very
acceptable to the ranchmen, in.
asmuch as it insures both them.
selves and their neighbors the
greatest amount of freedom from
delayed telephone service"
Mr.. DeNike qualified his state
ment as follows: "We feel that
we are partners with the ranch
men of Idaho in many ways. 1t
is to our interest quite as much
as to theirs, that crops be harry
ested rapidly and inexpensively
The moving of hay stackers is
essential to such harvesting, but
we are also partners with every
telephone user in the state. 1t is
our duty no furnish continuous
exchange and long distance ser.
vice, and this can be secured only
by co operation on the part of
the ranchmen.
"Section 2S25 of the Idaho Re-
vised Codes provides as follows:
Any person who wilfully or mall
iciously does any injury to any
telegraph or telephone property
mentioned IN the preceding sec
ton is hable to the corporation
for one hundred times the am.
cunt OF actual damages sustain
ed thereby, to be recovered in
any court OF competent jurIsdict-
lon.' 1t was without doubt that
this law was framed giving the
wire companies the right 20 re-
cover damages one hundred times
as great as the actual expense
involved. but we feel it will be
unnecessary for Us to rely upon
his statute. Since, however,
