COMPLAINT MADE
OF IMPURE MILK
CITY AUTHORITIES NOTIFIED
THAT MILK AND CREAM DIS
PENSED IS DILUTED.
No Names Mentioned But City Council
Will Receive Data on Complaints
From the City Attorney.

! Allegations have been made to city
authorities that diluted milk and
cream are being dispensed in Mos
COW and steps have been taken to
make an investigation into the COM
plants and bring the guilty parties to
account, provided the charges are
true. 1t was known that complaints
had been made to the office of James
H. Wallis, state pure food commission
er, at Boise, and similar complaints
to city authorities has caused some
stir in officialdom.
Complaints have been made that
milk and cream sold in Moscow is di-
luted. Just who are guilty of this
practice has not yet been determined,
however, I shall bring the matter to
the attention of the council at the
next meeting in the hopes that the
necessary action will be taken toward
wiping out any such violation of the
law A state law exists covering this
form of violation and we have ordin-
ances covering almost every feature
of sanitary aspect but no regulation
or penalty on diluted milk" said
City Attorney G. G. Pickett today.
Il shall recommend to the city
that a milk tester be purchased and
that the city health board be empow-
cred to make tests and that violations
be prosecuted. This matter is of
great Importance to the people of Mos
COW and if milk or cream is being
sold in the city that does not contain |
the proper amount of butter fat re-
quired by law, it should be remedied"

traordinary motion for new trial for
Leo NJ Frank, former pencil factory
superintendent, sentenced to die to-
morrow for the murder of Mary
Phagan, a factory employee, will be

judge may be mandamused by Franks
attorneys and the case thereby carried
for the second time to the supreme
court of Georgia.
Chicago detectives have been work
ing on the case for the past month,

SUPREME COURT
CUTS JUDGMENT
TRUST COMPANY AT LEWISTON
LOSSES $4,000 In THE HIGH
Err TRIBUNAL.
Case Up From Nez Perez County il
Which Brick Company Was
Involved.

BOISE, Apr. Especial by a
decision just handed down in the su-
preme court the case of the Com
mercial Trust company against the
Idaho Brick company, L. L. Haynes
and Abbie r. Haynes is remanded to
the trial court with directions to en-
ter modified judgment reducing the
original judgment in the sum of $10,-
900. The original judgment was for
34,536.2S.
Suit was instituted to foreclose a
mortgage given to secure money ad-
vanced to the brick company by the
trust company. The mortgage also
covered the property of Mr.. and Mrs.
Haynes. The supreme court decis1o..
of Monday was rendered on a rehear-
ing of the case. The amount of the
judgment was reduced $4,000 for the
reason that the trust company held
that deficiency judgment would be
of no value to it and that the poper-
ty in sight would not satisfy the orig
inal judgment.
Both the court and the attorneys
seem to have drawn ON the Bible for
inspiration in reaching their conclu-
sions in this case The supreme court
decision is written by Chief Justice
and concurred in by Justice
Sullivan. Part of the decision follows:
Counsel for appellants cites
much ecclesiastic law pronounc-
ing Woe unto scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites' (23 Matth-
ew 1928; II Luke So; Is Matth-
ew 10 and 20, and Matthew
1920, and seems to think these
citations peculiarly applicable to
his adversaries. The authority
from which the foregoing cita-
tions are made commands the
highest respect in this court,
which ever endeavors to be guild
ed by the spirit of its precepts in
a human endeavor to administer
justice under the laws of this
state. The foregoing citations,
when brought to bear on the facts
and circumstances of this case
remind us forcibly of that other
even more imperative command
of ecclesiastical equity that
Whatsoever ye would that men
should do to you, do ye even so to
them G. Matthew 12), the OBJ
servance of which would doubt
less have saved both litigants' and
courts time and perplexity in this
case"

Had Been Despondent.

1t develops that the girl had been
despondent every since the tragic end
ing of her husband who after killing
a woman in a mine tunnel near Har-
ward, shot himself, later passing away
in a Moscow hospital. According to a
statement made by Mrs. Gust Weber,
mother of the girl, the latter was
dissatisfied with her life on the farm
though her two uncles, William and
Mace Mccoy, woodsmen of that dis
trict, had tried to do everything that
was possible for the girl. They are
hard working people, so neighbors de-
clared ,and were not unmindful of the
suffering of the young girl. 1t was
learned that recently she expressed a
desire to join her father who resides
in central Oregon. Only few days
before the tragedy she had figured up
the amount necessary to make the
trip and the uncles declared they
would get as much as possible but
indicated it would take long time
to raise the sum, 500. 1t was learned
that they had begun hauling wood in
order to raise the funds. The girl

COXEY ARMY
ON THE MARCH
THE AGED GENERAL HAS AL
READY NOTIFIED THE PRESI-
DENT OF INTENDED VISIT.
Belief Express That a Million In
employed VIII Reach the National
Capital in May.

MASSILLON, O., Apr. 16.-If plans
don't miscarry, General Jacob Cox
ey, who years ago led an army of un-
employed from this city to Washing
ton, will leave here today with his new
rag -tag-and- -bobtail band, much larger
than the first, bound for the same des-
tination.
| Coxey wrote to and informed the
president some time ago of the intend
ed march, and stated they expect to
arrive in Washington May 81 to petit
ton the president and congress for
measures which will give work to the
unemployed.
If even a third of all the unemployed
now in the United States, according to
the figures submitted by the general
issimo of the whole outfit, manages to
reach Washington, it will mean that
the capital city will be swamped with
about one million idle and penniless
men.
Gen. Coxey believes the country
will finance the undertaking, just as it
did in 1894 and the people in the
towns and villages through which the
various divisions will pass are being
counted upon to show their patriotism
by providing food, and shelter when
needed to the marchers.
This is General Coxey's sixtieth
birthday and his "On to Washington"
is to be made his birthday gift to the
nation.
C0xey's "SecOnd Invasion"
CLEVELAND, Apr. 16.-"General"
Jacob S. Coxey, who was sixty years
old today, was expected sometime this
afternoon to begin his long heralded
march of unemployed on Washington,
from some point in Ohio.
The general of the unemployed"
promised to start with at least sew
eral hundred followers, who, he be-
lieves, will be increased along the line
of march by many thousands more by
the time the national capital is reach
ed.
Other 'divisions" were expected to
start from different points at various
lines, to form a conjunction with the
main army" at WaShingtOn
The march is scheduled to be con-
lucted like the famous one led by Cox
" when Cleveland was in the White
House. At that time CoXey got nothing
1ut twenty days in the workhouse on
he technical charge of walking on
he grass in the capitol grounds.
