MORE HOUSES NEEDED
Lack of Houses In American Falls,
CompeIls People TO Buy and
Build or Sleep In the Streets

That American Falls is a rich
"eld for the investor is probably
no. a fact as well known as it
should be, and 1t Is up to the
citizens of this little city to in
form the monied men from the
outside Of the opportunities offered
here for the increasing of capital.
For instance. one thing that strikes
the is the lack of dwell
ings. and in spite of the fact the
several new houses are being rapid
ly completed. there is still room for
many more. III some one would
erect a number of four and five
room cottages for the sole purpose
of renting them, IL seems as though
a good return upon the investment
could be realized. Many ranchers
have expressed a desire to move
into town for the winter to take adj
vantage of the schools for their
families but lack of houses pro-
hibits the idea.

Harry Orchard, who had been in
the city for some time, was suspect.
ed, arrested and confessed. In his
confession he implicated Charles
IL. Meyer. president; William d.
Haywood. secretary; and George A
%Pettibone, ex-member of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners. These men were
arrested and brought to Idaho for
trial. Application was made by
hem for a change of venue when
Their cases came up for trial. The
change Of venue was finally granted
for all except Orchard. Orchard
WAS tried In this county, plead
guilty and was sentenced to be
hung. The other three defendants
were tried in Ada county and
acquitted. The trials attracted wide
Il ention owing to the Nervousness
of the crime and the prominence Of
all the parties concerned. The
cases were defended by such law
yers as barrow Of Chicago, Richard
son Of Denver and Wilson and
Nugent Of Boise. They were prose-
Cuted by Van Duyn and Stone OF
Caldwell and Hawley and Borah of
Boise. While the Western Fedora
ton officials we're acquitted one af-
ter another public opinion is still
convinced that they were the in
stigators of the crime and should
have been convicted. Orchards
testimony in the trials was the evil
dence upon which II vas expected
to convict. This confession was not
strongly c~orroborated in the minds
of the jurors.
Frank S%teunenberg was murdered,
so II was alleged, in order TO
revenge the Western Federation OF
Miners for the action he took dur
ing the riots in the Occur d'Alenes
during his administration as COVER
O The miners struck, destroyed
property and inaugurated a reign
of terror. Governor Steunenberg
restored orderr and peace and fear
lessly prosecuted the leaders Of the
5utrages. For his stand at this
time he was murdered several years
later.

p 'ple who will think that Harry
orchard should be pardoned.-Cald-

ATTACK ON LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Former Premier of France Makes
Strong Denunciation of FormId-
able Enemy of Social Peace.

Georges Clemenceau. former pre-
mier of France, who was one of the
candidates for the presidency. has sur
prised Paris by strong denunciation
of the liquor traffic as a peril to the
\nation. He has written the freface
of a pamphlet devoted to a general
economic study Of alcohol. which has
Just been laid before the Paris Acad-
envy of Medicine. He deplores the fact
that the state seems powerless
against this most formidable enemy
of social peace and general welfare"
His words are thus translated:
To-day 1t is beginning to be under
stood that the right to poison people
cannot properly be regarded as one
of the achievements of the French
revolution. Universal suffrage would
really put itself out OF court II 1t had
succeeded in emancipating itself from
the yoke Of a single tyrant. only to
fall under the sway of league Of

When a movement or reform pro

stage. the dictates of reason as well
as the record of history fairly inform
us that that movement or reform will
come to a successful issue. When a

persecution and projects itself from
year to year with a persistent and In.

How much better 1t would have
been to have carefully driven these
fowls back into the yard and at once
repaired the fence.
Verify the contrairiness of the hen
T. not in it with the contrairiness and
stupidity of some of the attendants.
A common cruelty is to overcrowd
the flock, especially in close badly
ventilated houses. Allowing the sup
ply of drinking water to run out and
placing the drinking vessels in the
sun are also cruelties practiced by
shiftless. lazy people
Many acts of cruelty can be named
in the methods employed in breaking
up broodiness in hens. For instance.
dousing them In water, tying them by
one leg to stake or throwing them
into yard of young cockrels to be
knocked about right and left are all
practices that should be stopped.
Broodiness is a provision of nature
for rest and certainly the Industrious
hen deserves it. But, II 1t is wanted
to have her change her ideas or con-
dition. the only humane way is to
place such in separate house where
there are no nests or male birds and
allow them to have the fever gradually
pass of.
For some years back 1t was the
custom to sell the little newly

and also at large biru stores around
Easter time.
