An interesting little story comes
from down in Cassia county. Ac-
cording to report in some manner
Senator Haight got mixed up with
the local option law which he en-
deavored to bolster during the last
session of the legislature, when he
originated Senate Bill No. 20, which
is known as the drug store law"
The astute senator from Cassia
has been very rigid and iron-bound
in his advocacy of temperance, and
favors travelling the route that
leads to grapejuice, soda water and
aqua pure-or so we have always
been led to believe, according to his
political attitude and somewhat
sauve and oily declarations.
But 1t seems one cannot always
tell about those things. or at least
such would appear to be the case.
Now we hear that the oily father
OF the water-wagon trail and the
sponsor for the drug store joke, has
come under suspicion, and the hard
eye of the law he desired enforced
so severely is said to have frowned
upon his virtuous self.
AS the story. it appears that the
offida ais of Cassia county, or more
properly speaking, of Burley. where
the senator lives, suspicioned thai

While congress Is still lin session
he matter OF developing the har-
Dor facilities Of American Falls
might be taken up with Idaho's
delegation In Washington. as Il
appears from entirely competent
and substantial Judgment OF local
maritime experts that we have the
proper dope for developing a water
front. and the navigation and har-
bors body OF the national assembly
should not pass development OF the
American Falls harbor in the
pastime OF fooling away money
and time In such a trifhng affair
az the Panama canal. Some OF the
boys figure that It Is much easier
and faster 70 make the sea from
American Falls than Il 10 from
Lewiston, and that Doc Yandell
could get the British gunboats up
the Snake, by coming from the
northwest, and place them nea
or the firing limo OF the reservation
than he could by backing up the
Portneuf and endangering Kasiska's
basement. There r a great many
points OF merit to the scheme, and
in certain early parts OF the summer
additional Inducements could be
made to s%portslnen. the water
front affords abundant sport In the
line OF winged game OF long-billed
and gauzy-wInged variety. And
while a good many schooners are
lined up at the bar across the river
the facilities for f~ortiifcations on
the proposed harbor site cannot be
excelled.

FATHER OF DRUG

voking the aid of the search and

of that kind. 1t Is further reported
that the matter was suppressed, and
that the incident was charged up to

Be City Beautiful.

Canberra. n. S. W.-Americans will
take a keen interest in the construc-
ton of the federal capital city of the
commonwealth of Australia, because,
like the federal capital city of the
United States, it was completely plan
ned before the foundation stone OF the
first permanent building was laid, and
also because the architect whose de-
signs have been accepted, Walter Bur
ley Griffin, is an American, says the
Boston Transcript. The choice of the
Canberra district of New South
Wales. as the site OF the city, was
made by the commonwealth govern
ment in 1910. and the invitation to
architects embodying the conditions OF
completion was issued April 30, 1911.
To give an idea of the magnitude or
the task, it may be stated that the
requirements for the consideration or
the designers included the ALLEGATION
of appropriate areas embracing sites
not only for the house of parliament,
residence of the governor general and
the usual ministerial and administra-
tive offices. but places of public wor-
ship, mint, national art gallery and
library, state house, printing office,
government factories, university. tech
nical college, city hall, general post
office, museum, central railway sta
ton, railway marshaling yards, mill
tary barracks, criminal and police
courts, Jail, hospital, national thea
ter, central power station, gas works,
markets, stadium, parks and gardens,

model city, and Mr.. Griffin may we'll
be congratulated on his success in
winning the opportunity to give Wash
