LONDON, Oct. 21.-Confidence that
the kaisers attempt to break into
France along the line of the north
coast will be effectually blocked was
expressed by the war office today. 1t

OREGON GAME
NEXT SATURDAY
FIRST CONFERENCE BATTLE ON
LOCAL GRIDIRON WHEN IDAHO
MEETS THE VISITORS
Indications Point to the Game Being
One of the Biggest Events in Foot
ball in the Northwest

Coach "Pink" Griffith's Idaho eleven
will play one of the hardest games
ON its schedule when it tackles the fast
and heavy Oregon aggregation Satur-
day afternoon.
The Oregon team overwhelmed
Whitman in its first game OF the sea-
son and it trimmed w. S. G. last Sat
urday. The Webfooters have one of
the heaviest punches in the conference
and they will present an all-star line
up when they go against Idaho.
Oregon has been in possession of the
Idaho goat for the past few seasons
but "Pink's" trusted warriors expect
to shatter the jinx Saturday.
Brown, the husky, heady fullback,
may be able to get into the battle and
Ross, the speedy half, has almost en-
tirely recovered from the injuries that
have kept him out of the fray for the
past two weeks. None of the men suf-
fered any serious injuries in last Sat
urday's bruising scrap with Montana
and they will all be in good condition
for the Oregon game.
Coach Griffith has not given out his
lineup and it is possible that some Of
the new men may be given chance
to show their worth.
The game will be played on Idahos
new athletic field and it will probably
start at 2:30. 1t will be the first con-
terence game of the local season.

SERIOUS ASPECT
OF ALLEN CASE
THAT GOV. HAINES
HAD BEEN CALLED SUDDENLY
BACK TO BOISE
KumOrs AfIOat Alleging That Possibly
State Treasurer Might be Default
er of Public Funds

BOISE, Oct. Ex-Governor Haines
has abandoned his campaign on ac-
count of the developments in the office
|of State Treasurer Allen. Such was
the announcement made last night at
republican headquarters He had
what may be his last meeting of the
campaign at Blackfoot last night
The return of the governor was the
only development in connection with
| the treasurership matter. AS there
would be small occasion for his COM
ing back unless the experts working
on the treasurer's books have some
thing tangible to report to him, his re-
turn is interpreted in some quarters
to mean that something of moment has
been unearthed, but no verification
could be obtained to make it possible
to impart to that idea any more than
the weight of assumption.
In official quarters, however, there
was an air of expectancy that lent
lcolor to the rumor that developments
|of an energetic, possibly a startling
mature, were impending.
Coleman Also Involved
The governor had already given
assurance that he would act prompt
ly and with vigor so soon as anything
came to light to warrant it. If the
audit has proceeded far enough to
disclose any irregularities it is expect
ed there will be immediate proceed
ings against State Treasurer Allen and
also his former deputy, Fred M. Cole
man, as well as whatever action be
necessary in a legal way in relation
to the treasurer's bond.
The situation naturally gave rise to
a crop of rumors as to shortage, but |
it was impossible to obtain the slight
est official confirmation or to obtain |
any official statement to support them
in such manner as to make it possible
for anything even approximating a
positive statement to be made.
Ramstedt is Silent
Axel P Ramstedt, who is in charge
Of the office temporarily, refused to
make a statement concerning the work
Of the auditors. The state republic
an headquarters issued a statement
last night that reports from all parts
Of the state from candidates in the
field indicated that the Allen matter
would not be taken as a condemnation i
)f the whole state ticket nor the re-
publican organization.

Few Comparisons Shown
A few comparisons with similar fig
ures for other years are interesting
In 19O9-1910 or five years ago, the re-
ceipts by state apportionment were
$16,516.3S, in 19131914, $17,679.74,
practically no increase, yet the ex-
penditures increased from $68,245.25 to
$154,357.O3, due to the increase IN
teaching force and salaries, also the
erection of new buildings. During the
year 1912-1913 was probably spent the
largest sum ever spent in Latah coun-
ty for school purposes. The amount
was 8,656.97, $11S,1O6.4S OF which
was for new buildings, the high school
buildings at Moscow, Kendrick, and
Genesee being the most expensive.
