PROHIBITION In RUSSIA

For the first time in the history
of the world real prohibition of in
toxicating liqours is in operation
over an extended territory. We have
had no end of prohibition laws in
this county, but none of them has
been enforced. With half of our ma
tional area nominally dry" we have
almost doubled the consumption of
liquor. This is natural in a free
country. In Russia, however, the
case is different. Not a drop of liq-
uor can be had in that vast land ex-
cept the limited quantity which in
dividusls happened to have on hand
when the decree went into effect last
month. The government owns all
the distilleries and breweries, and it
is impossible to make importations.
1t will be interesting to note the eff
feet. Thus far all the accounts have
agreed We are told that crime has
diminished and that the people look
more healthful. Formerly the aver
age Russian laborer did not work
more than three or four days a week
spending the rest of the time in alb.
sorbing vodka. Now he works siz
days. It has been argued by aristo.
cratic Russians that habitual drunk.
enness avs a safeguard against join
ing the Nihilists and that 1t wal
therefore to the interest Of the gov
|ernment to promote the sale of vod
ka. There ere various sides to great
questions, and the reports thus fal
received are obviously biased. There
the many great writer's in Russia ant
we may be sure that later on w
shall get from some of them sucf
accurate statements o fthe effects o
prohibition as will furnish us mucf
instruction.

OLD RESIDENT RETURNS

John Montgomery returned recent
" from British Columbia where he
was engaged in the electrical bust
ness, and may spend the winter in
Blackfoot. Mr.. Montgomery is the
older brother of w. H. Montgomery
who owns considerable real estate
here.
John left Blackfoot about the year
1890, and has since lived at Salt
Lake and other places. He says the
firm he was with in British Column
bia was furnishing electrical emery,
and that with the opening of the
European war their bushes fell on
rapidly, as did nearly all other lines,
SO that failures are the rule rather
than the exception. He says the re-
markable feature is the loyalty OF
the people to England in her troubles
and that the whole population seems
to have resolved itself into knitting
party, making socks for the soldiers.

TWO JUDGES APPOINTED

Governor Haines. has appointed
Judge Alfred Bulge, of Pocatello, to
fill the unexpired of four years Of
Judge George H. Stewart, and John
]. Guheen will fill the position for
which Judge Bulge was elected in
the fourth district.
1t was thought that the position
made vacant by the death of Stewart
might be subject to filling by election
under the circumstances, coming as 1t
did on the eve of election, but the
supreme court holds that the COVER
nor's proclamation had already been
issued directing attention to the
places to be filled by election, and
that this was not one of them, and
it was not in order to have an cleo
ton upon a subject not brough to
the attention of the voters generally.
That the fact that some people had
their attention called to it and that
they wrote in names or placed stick
ers indicating their choice, is not q
proper way to test the choice Of the
whole people. For these reasons
chiefly, the persons who sought to be
elected by securing small vote SUR
,reptitiously or in any way not gen.
orally understood by all, could not
he said to be fairly elected.

Mr.. Jones showed the others into
the basement where the prisoners
were just finishing their meal of
bread, coffee, beefsteak and fried po-
tatoes. There was some food left,
and they were informed that a couple
of men had not yet gotten up. They
said they usually had enough food,
sometimes they were little short,
but sometimes they had more than
enough. They seemed very we'll sat-
listed, made no complaint about stale
food said nothing of old fish or any
thing of the kind, and after looking
around for few minutes, the visit
ors left. They said they knew SO
little about prison management, they
did not feel qualified to pass upon
general conditions, but that so far
as the food was concerned, it looked
good.
In all of our publications about the
prison management we have never
criticised the quality nor the quantity
of the food furnished. We have OBJ
sected to the graft, and we have OBJ
jected to the uncleanliness of the
prison and to the uncleanliness of
he whole court house under Mr..
Jones administration. So far. as we
know he has always been entitled to
defense against the charges of fur
nishing decaying food or stale food
left over from the plates of custom
ers at the restaurant. Last Saturday
was the second time we asked per-
mission to visit the prison at meal
time in the two years, and we can
not speak with much assurance based
upon such meager observations. Our
contention about the lack of cleanli-
ness was more than Sustained by the
state sanitary commissioner, as shown
by his report on file in the clerks
office.

THANKSGIVING
AT PINCREE

A good old fashioned Thanksgiving
in the spirit of Puritan days and
Colonial way, was observed by nearly
a hundred people of the Pingree
Union Sunday school, in big dinner
and program at the Pingree hotel,
Thursday, from to II o'clock p. M.
A novel feature of the dinner put
the young folks and children into a
state of myrth and great fun. When
the youngsters all sat down at the
table, and were served with a good
dinner provided by the parents. The
young people were delighted in be-
coming victors and champions in the
Sunday school contest, waged against
the Bible class, for largest average
attendance at the regular sessions of
the school for the summer, was
amply manifested by the fun, jokes
and rollicking laughter over the
Thanksgiving banquet so justly won
l
from their seniors.
After dinner the following splendid
program was successfully carried out
to the delightful entertainment of
nearly hundred people in the par
lors of the Pingree hotel.
