O'NEIL MUST SERVE TERM
IN STATE PENITENTIARY.
Says He is Anxious to Commence HIS
Sentence and Have it Over, Now
That His Last Hope to Win Was
Defeated 2 to 10 Years.

Barney ONeil, former banker and
lumber magnate, and one time candi-
date for governor, must serve a SEN
tence in the Boise penetertiary, &C
cording to decision handed down by
the supreme court few days ago,
sustaining the judgment of the lower
court, wherein he was found guilty of
making false reports to the state bank
examiner. He was sentenced to from
two to ten years.
O'Neil fed to Canada when the af-
fairs at the bank were being investi-
gated, and made strenuous but un-
successful fight against extradition.
He was tried and convicted last Feb
ruary and has been in jail since being
unable to furnish the heavy bond re-
quired pending the hearing of his ap-
peal. 1t is expected that ne will be
taken to Boise shortly to begin his
sentence.

tees and reform organizations, the
country has been given wholly dis
torted view of social vice. 1t has been
led to confuse conditions totally diff
ferent, and made to believe that Am
erican cities are full of houses OF bon
dage in which women are imprisoned
and trafficked in and sold as II they
were chattels. Congress has been
moved to action and the long arm OF
the federal power employed to deal
with cases of immoral relations be-
longing to the police courts.
Unfortunately for the facts on
which to base this belief of female
slavery, the agitation has developed
nothing more important than the con-
yictions of negro pugilist and two
California citizens charged with entic-
ing young women to another state.
There has been no wholesale setting
free of women from bondage worse
than death, for the excellent reason
that very few women have been found
in that kind of bondage.
II is time for return to reason in
discriminating between prostitution
and white slavery" As the Spring
field Republican says, the latter term
is misleading in it's original sense and
as now popularity employed involves
"grotesque misuse of language" In
this connection the statement of
World correspondent is pertinent that
United States district attorneys who
have prosecuted white slave actions
will be compelled to admit that the
women in these cases are usually
hopeless courtesans."
There has been too much cheap
sensationalism about white slavery.

All the Potato Associations of the
state and many individuals have
their sacks on hand, or contracted
for; we are now right at the market
ing season, and we should, therefore,
in our judgment, not adopt, for this
seasons trade, hard and fast stand
ards which might embarrass compli-
ances with same. We should, how
ever, have some standard to protect
quality in initial shipments and pre-
pare for standard shipments for 1914
crops. Permit us to suggest for pres
emit discussion the following provi-
sional grades.
''B" Grade.
"B' Grade, (name to be given)
later by Executive Board.) One
variety, ripe, sound, smooth, clean,
bright. Graded over l 7-8 inch
screen for round, and l "a inch

well sewed, for 1918, but packed in

trade. The trade mark to be later
chosen by the sub-central board of
trustees. The quality and size of
same we recommend to be referred
to them to be determined later.
The grader in the field shall not
be overloaded, thus. preventing good
satisfactory grading work. Inspect
ors shall therefore give directions
for proper operation of said sorters
or graders. Printed cards with in
spector's rules for operating of the
tackled on every grader or sorter used
in each inspectors district by inspect
or in charge. This maintains grade,
and insures quality.
Irregular growths, resette tubers,
bruised, cut or cracked potatoes not
allowed in this grade. Uniform color
required, free from all disease.
"C' Grade.
&c" Grade, Name to be given
later by xecutive board.) This
grade shall include all marketable
potatoes not included in "A" and
"B" Grades that will pass over a

l "a inch screen for the long or

yer. Not more than 10 per cent
scabby or rough potatoes allowed in
this grade, and nc cut potatoes will
be permissible. Sacked the same as
the "B" Grade.
"A" Grade.

following grade Is offered to become
the highest grade of standard sales
in 1914.

DELAWARE VALLEY
 SLOWLY RECOVERING
CIOuAburst Breaks All Records, Wash. ing Away Railroads, Houses and
 Doing Lot of Damage.

Easton, Pa, Aug 2.-The upper Delaware Valley struggled today to- untangle itself from the mass of de- bris and wreckage caused by yester- days cloudburst.
 Roadbeds of the Delaware, Lacka- wanna and Western and the Pennsyl- vania Railroad were badly washed, but the Lackawanna succeeded during the night in removing hundreds of tons of debris form the tracks of the Lackawanna water gap and opening the road in that section. The damage at Manunka Chunk, N. J., the junction of the Pennsylvania and Lackawanna Railroad has not yet been repaired. Here the tracks were undermined, and the operators tower was carried away on the rising waters of the Dela- ware river.
 There is nothing in local history to compare with the storm in the neigh borhood of the water gap, and thous- ands of summer visitors to that re- sort probably will never forget their thrilling experience.
 Rain began falling at noon, and continued with cloudburst propor- ! tions for four hours without a mo- meptIs interruption. The water rush, ed dbwn the mountainsides5 in tor rents and wore gulleys eight ant ten feet deep.
 At the base of the mountain stands the Delaware House. Through thi.
