MINER MEETS
WITH ACCIDENT
e. G. Hall Brought to Kelsey Hos
pital Last Friday With
= Broken Leg

The Comstock Bros. Bert, Charles
and Leon, made the trip to K. G..
Halls cabin in Timber gulch yester-
day, returning about dark. They
found Mr.. Hall sitting in his cabin,
nursing his broken right leg, which
was crushed between the knee and
ankle ON the 18th of the present
month by a cavern in the mine
which he has been developing. Mr..
Hall set and dressed the leg the
best he could, and he has been in
his cabin for the past eight days
waiting for assistance.
The boys improvised a toboggan
out of snowshoes and brought Mr.
Hall to their home at Gimlet. He
has been getting along as we'll as
could be expected under the circum
stances. He will leave today on the
train for Mountainhome where a
brother resides.
The boys had hard trip, the snow
at the cabin being five feet deep
They passed over thirteen snoWslides
in the canyon, having made the TRIP
all the way ON snowshoes. HALEY
News Miner.
Mr.. Hall LIS a brother of Adm Hall
of this city and was brought Friday
to the Kelsey hospital here, where
he is improving satisfactorily un
der the care of Doctor Frazier.

ed to make such political duplicity
impossible.
Restrictions are also to be placed
on the nomination by petition In an
other way. The name of candidate
nominated by petition may be placed
in but one column on the official
ballot, and no party designation will
be authorized for candidates nomin-
ated by petition.
Clearly the intent Of the new bill
is to encourage regularity in poll
tics and discourage guerilla politics
as far as possible. The matter has
been in the hands of lawyers with
experience In matters pertaining to
legislation, and for that reason 1t Ia
expected to stir up lively discussions
in both houses and senate.
But the most important provision
of all, in the opinion OF many, is
that under which the candidate re-
ceiving upward Of so per cent OF the
first choice votes in the primary ID
thereby declared elected to the Of
flee to which he is candidate, and
will not be required to run the gaunt-
let again at the fall election. 1t is
argued that this provision will have
beneficial effect in two ways--it
will call out a much larger vote at
the primaries and 1t will induce men
and women to vote their own party
ticket in the interest of their own
party candidates.
No provision Ia made for q man
datory second choice. This provision
Of the present law ia left unchanged.

FIRE DEPARTMENT
HOLD MEETING
New Officers Elected-1enefit and
General Fund Shown to bo
In Very Good Shape

Chris e. Hendricks, chief; w. H.
Hronek, asst. chief; G. H. Stewart.
sec.-treas.
The above are the newly elected
officers OF the local Voluntary Fire
Department, elected at their meet
ing Wednesday evening. when
great deal of business was trans
acted, and every detail Of the work
was found satisfactory In every way.
The matter Of q fire alarm was
taken up and 1t was decided that .
siren whistle would be used for
alarm instead OF an automatic bell
as the latter had been found un-
satisfactory In some cities.
The treasurer's report shows q
healthy balance In the Benefit and
General Fund OF $4,000 The depart
ment was enriched during the year
by a donation of 5000: interest.
$1,000 and $500 from the Thanks
giving Ball.
With the new equipment In good
shape and membership OF IS, the
boys are In readiness for emergen-
cies, which they. Of course, hope do
not arise.
The past year was a record break
er in that only nine alarms were
turned In, three OF which occurred at
night and the buildings too far gone
to be controlled. In all other calls
the department proved itself capable
of checking serious conflagrations and
in one instance the flames were con-
trolled when three buildings on Can
yon Street were ON fire at one time.
Added apparatus, additional re-
cruits and list of officers at the
helm OF the department combine to
assure the people OF Mountain Home
of continued efficiency for another
year which, 1t is hoped will be an
easy one for the boys.

THAT MOOTED
CONTEMPT CASE
Holds That the Supreme Court Took
The Proper Action to Main-
sf tain its Dignity

lue sucCIblOu VI tlo SupA cAuC Soui
in the contempt proceeding and con-
clusions against Messrs. Sheridan,
Broken and Cruzen of the Capital
News, has attracted attention In all
parts of the state. Candor compells
the admission that at first the people
were inclined to look upon the pro-
ceedings of the court with grave con-
cern and not little criticism has
been made manifest. The second,
sober thought of the people inclines
them to the conviction that the court
could not we'll have taken ony other
course than the one it did. Having
taken cognizance of the editorials,
articles and comment OF the Capital
News during the late campaign there
was nothing to do but mete out the
punishment prescribed by law. To
do otherwise would have brought
the court into disrepute to degree
greater than the above mentioned
articles even aimed at. To maintain
the respect of the people, as we'll as
its own authority, court must ex-
ercise its perogative in contempt
cases only on the greatest provoca-
ton. However, when contempt pro-
ceedings are instituted the punish
ment, if guilt be shown, must cores
pond with the seriousness of the Of
fence. To maintain it's dignity and
respect in the eyes of the public the
court cannot countenance nominal
fines, as adequate punishment for the
crime committed. For this reason
the people of this state are becom-
ing convinced that the supreme
court is to be commended rather
than criticised for the action taken.
It has not come to our attention
that any reasonable person has ques-
toned the authority of law of the
courts in this or any similar case. No
sensible person has even suggested
that courts be derived of the au-
thority to maintain the dignity and
respect due them. There are persons,
better known for the vehemence of
their expression than for any great
profundity of thought, who would de-
prive courts of all authority. They
have that quality of mind which leads
them to assume holier than thou
attitude on all public questions. They
may, and undoubtedly do, deceive
themselves for the moment, but they
will not long deceive the public as
q whole. Col. Roosevelt and other
members of the Progressive party
patriotic men and women but they
have no monopoly on civic righten-
ous They must abide by the law
the same as other people. If they
see fit to disagree with courts, they
can so express themselves without
questioning the honesty and integ-
rity of the court. If not, they must
take the consequences, even as you
or we. The freedom of the press
does not give license to libel the
individual, neither is it carte
blanche to show contempt or disre-
spect to the courts of the state
