President Wilson's Message.
The telegram from the President to
Governor Ammons reads as follows:
Am disturbed to hear the probability
OF the adjournment of your Legisla-
ture and feel bound to remind you that
my constitutional obligations with re-
gard to the maintenance of order in
Colorado are not to be Indefinitely con-
tinued by the inaction of the State
Legislature. The federal forces are
there only until the State of Colorado
has time and opportunity to resume
the matter. l cannot conceive that the
state is willing to forego her sovsr-
eighty or to throw herself entirely on
the Government OF the United States,
and am quite clear that she has no
constitutional right to do SO when It is
take effective action.

After adjournment of the Legisla-
ture, the minority senators sent the
following telegram to the President:
The undersigned members of the
Senate of the Nineteenth General AS
ssmbly IN special session convened by
represent: That the special objects
mentioned in the message of the gov
ernor to be legislated upon by the spe-
cift,.es clai session n did not appear to us to be
occasion wherein we were called to
act; that we have in every vote cast
endeavored to indicate such insuffi-
cheney; that we have strenuously
urged and voted to widen the scope Of
the objects that might be considered
TO cover the entire situation. We be-
lieved and believe that the measures
passed by the Legislature at this ses-
sion are Inadequate to meet the situa-
esrs ei1n n dssIr this state We protest our sin
IN this state. We deplore the neces-
mons and the condition that makes
necessary a reminder to the governor
Of Colorado by the chief executive Of
the nation that the state Is derelict
In Its duty in the premises.
Washington.-President Wilson ex-
pressed satisfaction with the situation
after he had received Governor Am
mons reply. 1t was said by officials
in close touch with the President that
Wilson was greatly pleased with what
had been done after he had been in
formed by Governor Ammons of the
work of the Colorado Legislature, and
that he hoped the state would assume
control of the situation in the near fu-
ture so the federal troops might be
withdrawn.
Washington.-President Wilson Sat
urday made 1t clear that Colorado
must quickly solve its own difficulties
growing out Of the strike situation, and
that the federal troops now on duty
there would be withdrawn as soon as
possible.
He telegraphed Governor Ammons
telling him the state Legislature
should not adjourn without taking
steps to control the situation, and re-
ceived reply from the governor say
ing everything possible was being
done.
At the White House It was stated by
officials close to the President, that he
does not plan to withdraw the federal
troops II anarchy Is to break out again
but he feels there is no excuse for the
Legislature adjourning and leaving
the problem to the federal govern
ment.
Members Of the Colorado delegation
in Congress were alarmed by the
Presidents telegram to Governor Am
mons. and said anarchy would reign
again II the troops were taken away
before the strike was settled. They as
serted that although orders for the
disarming Of the contending factions
had been issued, only small proper
tion Of the arms have been turned In,
and that practically an armed truce ex.
lists at present.
The President will be reasonable
about the question. 1t was said at the
White House, but believes that under
the constitution he has no right to
use the federal troops in Colorado
when the Legislature has a chance to
act. 1t was recalled that when he
sent the troops to Colorado he made 1t
clear the act was only temporary.

The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1914-07-24

All new counties created in Idaho

several counties irrespective of whe-
ther the territory of the new county

are in reality wet. This is in brief
the effect of very important rul-

state handed down in an opinion last
night in which Justices Sullivan and
fAilshie agree in this point and Judge
Davis disagrees in the case of the
village of American Falls versus w.
a. West in which Judge Alfred Bulge
of the Fifth Judicial district is re-
versed. West is victorious in the
suit.
American Falls went into the dis
trict court praying for an injunc-
tion to prevent the running of a sa-
loon by West outside the limits of
that town on the ground that the sa-
Eloon is within what should be dry
territory, and although licensed, it
had no legal right to exist and that
it results in public nuisance, injur-
iously affecting the decency, good
name and reputation of the inhabi-
tants of American Falls. Judge
Bulge found for American Falls and
issued an injunction from which
judgment West appeals.

May Sue the
Commissioners

When The Idaho Republican came
out last week with the record of what
had been done by the county commits
sioners in spending money, a promin-
ent tax payer employed lawyer to
draw up papers testing their right
to pay some of the bills listed. The
full list of bills allowed for interest
on the macadam road notes, amount
ing to some $3.50, and a number of
other bills thought to have been al
lowed in violation of law, were in
,corporated in the complaint, and it
was reported that the action would
be in the nature of impeachment of
the commissioners.
When it was noised about that the
papers were being drawn, and that
the prospective dragnet would place
some of the county officials under
accusation sufficient to put them out
'of office and deprive them of the
right to hold office in the future,
and that upwards of two dozen other
prominent citizens would be affected
financially, strong pressure was ap-
piled to the militant citizen to try
to induce him to drop the matter and
not file suit. If the charges are
pressed and sustained it will invali-
date so many official acts and be of
such far-reaching effect, it is doubt
full if it will be carried through.
Thoughtful men who have looked in
to the matter to see where it will
end, are advising that it be dropped,
while others who feel exasperated
with the extremes to which matters
have been carried, insist that drastic
action will be necessary to bring high
handed business to halt in this
county.

AN ERROR CORRECTED

We wish to correct a statement we
made last week that was not right.
The heading of the report of the
commissioners proceedings indicated
that the amount expended on the
roads the last quarter was the larg-
est in the history of the county, but
on looking it up in the allowance
book where it was segregated from
other expenditures we found it was
largest in July, 1913. Following is a
list of the totals for roads and bridges

MIR. Stevens
His Ability

1t is amusing to note the efforts of
Their Paper" to print Mr.. Stevens
into creditable race for the nomina-
ton for governor. In a recent issue
of the Courier there appeared a
strained effort at showing that Mr..
Stevens is offering something new in
his platform, an array of suggestions
which the two old parties have been
operating more or less as supply and
demand would allow them, and talked
glibly of the great areas of matured
timber in Texas, of the economic his
tory of Argentina, Australia and
New leland, and the policy, (not
explained) of economists in various
sections of our own country, as be-
ing quite sufficient to silence all ad-
verse opinions to the candidacy Of
Mr.. Stevens.
If Their Paper" would kindly tell
the public all about the vast timbered
areas of Texas, and how it affects
Idaho and it's resources, and then
explain just how governor with
power to approve or veto Is going
to revolutionize things and speed up
the demand for timber and the price
at which it can be disposed of, peo-
pie will probably be interested if it
goes farther than past efforts have
already done. At to Austria. the con-
ditions are rather difficult to COM
pare; Argentina is too near the south
pole and New Zealand is too far from
Boise; besides, the economic theories
of that tax-burdened country have
been pretty we'll tried out and con-
demned, and the populace are look
ing for means of Kidding themselves
of granted non-producing theorists
who have fastened an impractical
system upon them by workless labor.
Their Paper says that Mr..
Stevens, If elected, will follow the
example of the wise men of the
nation in finding means of convert
ing the fallen or down timber and
stumpage, as well as the standing
timber, to use for wood. 1nmbeE and
posts, and thus turn great revenues
into the treasury by this statesman
like and businesslike policy. They
also say upon the authority of Wood
Parker, of st. Anthony, that many
people will have soft spot in their
hearts for Jim" Stevens at the polls,
and also quoteMilton Dillingham;, Of
The Leadore Standard, who says the
next governor of Idaho will be Jim
and that his surname will be Stevens.
Since these two deep thinkers
have spoken with such marked force
and logic, the people feel pretty we'll
convinced by it that Mr. Stevens is a
statesman and that his stump theories
will pull us out of the tax muddle
by curing all the defects of county
and school management, and that
whatever it was that was done in
New Zealand will be good enough
here.
This ought to convince people that
they owe at least passing con-
sideration to the wishes of our fell
low townsman and his ability as a
statesman and business manager OF
things great and near-great. Sc
much has been said by Their Paper
and the 100000 pamphlets which
they are spreading over the
state, regarding Mr.. Stevens ability

ALUMNI GAME To Be
THURSDAY AFTERNOON

The date for the annual Alumni
high school basket ball game has been
changed from Friday night to Thurs
day afternoon at $3.50. Owing TO Fri
day being Christmas il was not deem
ed advisable 10 play at that time. The
Alumni feel that they are about 70
break the spell and win the first game
that a graduate team has ever taken
from the local high school. The high
boys are fully as confident that such
will not be the case, although the old
boys have had greater advantage than
heretofore by playing a game in the
local gym.
The Alumni will probably use Cart
ner. Moon and Huston of Purdue,
Russ. Culp, Edwards, Giel and Goe-
thals OF Wabash, and probably Engle-
wright OF this place. The locals line
up has not been announced, but will
undoubtedly be picked from Capt
Bussert, Branstretter, PeltOn, Kohler.
Burnett, Lowell. Seifert and Nc
Knight. Pelton has almost recovered
from his injury and KOhlers thumb
has about healed so that the high
team will be able to present its
strongest lineup. This is one OF the
regular scheduled games and the sea-
son tickets will be used, contrary to
what was published in the papers
earlier in the week.
