SUPREME COURT OPENS.
Judges Arrive From Boise on Sunday
and Convene Court on Monday.

The supreme court for the central
idaho District convened at the supreme
court building last Monday. Word was
received from Chief Justice !. N
Sullivan to the effect that the court
would arrive in Lewiston on Sunday
evening.
Judge Sullivan states the court does
not expect to hear all the cases on
the calandar at Lewiston but that it
will hear only the criminal cases.
cases that are of public interest and
the private cases that are of pressing
necessity. The reason for this is be
cause the court is so far behind with
the calendar at Boise and has so many
cases that have been appealed for more
than year, the intention of the court
being to hear cases from all parts of
the state substantially in the order of
their appeal and requests that the at
torneys having cases on the calendar be
advised to chat effect.

waves measured during a northwest
gale there averaged Twenty-Five and

them, following one another with
beautiful regularity, were thirty-seven

Several members of the Melrose

Mr.. and Mrs. T. R. Barnes left Sun

New York state and settled on farm

FAlLOn To CELEBRATE FOURTH

fallon will celebrate the 1914

brated roundly and in a manner that

all kinds, rock drilling contest, in
which miners from Wonder, Fair
view and Rawhide will be pitted
against each other. and that a grand
ball will end up the natal day

An invitation is extended TO resi-
dents of all other state communi-
ties TO come and celebrate with US
Ii is a proper time that the widest
spread possible invitation should be
extended. The great Lahontan dam
dam will be nearly completed on
July Fourth. The imposing struc-
ture will alone prove a tremendous
attraction, which will induce many
from outside communities to come
this way. Evey business man and
every other resident for that matter
should lose no opportunity to help
the local Eagles make the next

1t is generally agreed that the pro-
posed schoolhouse should be erec-
ted in the easetrn part of town. The
impossibilty of making model
structure by adding to the present
schoolhouse in the western part of
town is conceded, and it now seems
certain that the board will unite in
selecting a location near the city
park, where on ideal site has been
offered for a nominal figure by City
Councilman Jonh Oats, the donor of
the city's ten-acre park. The board
1t Is understood, has made this solec-
ton, after needing the advice of a
large number of the patrons of the
district Though the plans have
not been drawn, it is we'll settled
that the new structure will be one
story with full basement and will
embody every late feature known in
sehoolhouse construction. To this
end, school directors, Dr. j. l.. Smith
and Joseph Howser left yesterday
and are inspecting Reno's model
schoolhouses today.

FIRST CENTRALIZED SCHOOL
First Project IS Given Definite
Shape At Meeting Held
Last Saturday Evening.

The first centralized school pro-
ject to be given serious considera-
involves districts No. ten, three and
eight, usually referred to as the
Smart, Wightman and Wildes dis
tricts. Saturday evening residents
of the three districts met at the
Smart schoolhouse and passed reso-
lutions favoring the plan to consoli-
date the three districts. The resolu-
tion also favored moving the school
structures of the three districts to a
central location to be used as a tenn
porary school plant until means are
at hand for building modern struc-
ture, each district to bear Its pro-
portionate share of the expense in
cident upon moving the buildings
This is said to be preliminary
step to consolidated school, legis-
lative authorization for which will
be asked during the next session of
the states lawmakers.
]. S. Gray, F. C. Sander and Fran
els Harrigan were appointed a COM
mittee at Saturday evenings meet
ing whose duty it will be to solicit
the residents of their districts and
secure signers to petition carrying
as its text that the Union school
shall be established and in time for
next years school.
There are something like 100
scholars in the districts involved in
this plan. The Smart district, the
largest in school population, has
two teachers, and will if continued,
require three teachers with another
year; the Wightman district has one
teacher this year, but will require
two next year, which together with
the one employed in the Wildes dis
trict, would make teaching force
of six. 1t is pointed out that by un-
ionizing the districts, force of
four teachers will suffice and all
grade work can be carried on with
far better results.

Is Shown Behind the Fight Wag-
ed Against The Administra-
ton For Free Tolls.

Secretary Redfield issued state
ment last week connecting the Ha-
waiian sugar growers with the Pan
ANA canal tolls fight. His state
ment followed recent trip to the
Pacific coast. and Investigations by
the bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce.
THE question as to who shall be
the largest shippers through the ca
naI," the secretary said. has per-
haps incidental interest In connec-
ton with the discussions concerning
Panama canal tolls. II II is as
sumed that the carriers will. as they
say, distribute the charges over the
freight tonnage carried, the ques-
ton as to which kind of freight
might have to assume the burden
has some interest. Possibly there
fore. the answers to certain ques-
tions may throw light upon the sit
uation.
"who are at present the largest
shippers over the isthmus of Te-
huantepec? The sugar growers of
Hawaii. To whom are their ship
ments made? To the sugar refin-
ers in and about New York and Phil
adelphia. Do these shipments
amount to great deal? In the
last fiscal year they were 2S,000.-
900 pounds. or 264,o00 net tons.
"In the present method of ship
ment over the isthmus OF Tehaunte-
pee are there two trans-shipments of
freight--one on the west coast of
Mexico, another on the east coast
and a railroad charge between?
There are. and the through rate
from Hawaii to New York must In
clude the cost OF such transference
and freight charge.
would not the opening of the ca
nal do away with the two transfers
and the railway charge? II would.
and doubtless the sugar growers
would be benefited thereby and
properly 30.
''In view of their serious COM
plants as to the effect OF the placing
OF sugar on the free list In the near
future. II is not normal that the sug-
ar growers should exert every means
in their power to reduce the cost of
transporting their product to the
market7 That would undoubtedly
be good business.

press reports, Mr.. Hopson statet
that there was no anti-administra

nor was there an attempt made or
the part of the Interior department
to pack the convention as alleged b,
Republican newspapers. The con
ference Mr.. Hopson stated. resulted
in inestimable benefit to western In
terests, particularly those related tt
irrigation.
The Newlands bill was considered
by the conference, he said. but wal
not endorsed. not because 1t was moi
held in general favor. but because
there was a disposition to refrain
from endorsing any pending legisla-
tive bills. The Newlands bill is fav-
ored, Mr.. Hopson said, by at least
nine-tenths of the delegates present.
This plans to create fund Of $780,

good to return with the Kent car
from New Pass and for Mr.. Crehore
to continue with the party. Neither
one did as arranged previously for
the reason that Mr.. Kent's Pierce
