BARBER OUSTED
FROM THE OFFICE
OF CAME WARDEN
Breach Between Governor
and One Of His Appointees
Comes to Climax. B.
GoWan Named.

The breach between Governor John
H Barber reached a climax late yes
terday when the governor ousted War
den Barber from office and appointed
j. B. Gowan of Caldwell to succeed
him. Last night Warden Gowan was
in possession of the game department.
The move by the governor was made
during the absence of Warden Barber,
who is in the southeastern part of the
state on business in connection with
the department and was expected to
be in Hay Spur, where a hatchery is
located, last night or today. He was
notified, or will be notified of his re-
moval, by telegram as soon as he can
be located. The governors action
came as surprise to the friends of
Mr.. Barber and they are indignant
over the summary dismissal of the
former warden.
Charge Political Activity.
The anti -Haines political activity Of
Mr.. Barber is behind the governors
move. This is and has been we'll
known fact for some time, although
Governor Haines last night refused to
comment on the change in the depart
ment head. The governor said any ex
PLANTATION could come from the ousted
official The close friends OF the gov
ernor assert that Mr. Barber was re-
moved from office because OF his pro-
nounced activity against the chief eX-
ecutive. They charge that Mr.. Barber
plainly showed his attitude as anti
Haines in urging d. w. Davis of
American Falls to make the race for
governor and later openly supporting
NJ. e. Lewis of Moscow, an announced
candidate. His political activity
against the man who appointed him,
the Haines people say, has cost him
the game warden's job.
The ousted official is said to have
been the Original" Haines man for
governor Prior to the time Governor
Haines announced his candidacy two
years ago it is a well known fact that
Warden Barber came out. strongly in
his behalf through the editorial col
umns of his American Falls paper and
personal effort. During the primary
campaign he accompanied the present
governor over the state. After Gov
ernor Haines' nomination Mr. Barber
was also active in his behalf for cleo
ton.
Barber Steps Aside.
It was understood by Mr.. Barber and
his friends, it is said, that he was to
be appointed a member of the public
utilities commission-that he had the
promise of the governor of this office
in the event the legislature passed an
act creating the commission. He was
not given the appointment. The gov
ernor was urged to appoint Mr. Barber
immigration commissioner. In ! 'er-
ence to the governors wish to al. oint
Major Reed to that office Mr.. Barber
is said to have stepped aside. 1t was
then understood that he was to be ap-
pointed private secretary 10 the gov
ernor but again ne is said to have
stepped aside for Captain E. @. Davis

 FROM MAIL TRAIN Lone Bandit Holds Up Mail Clerk Near Los Angeles and Gets Twen-

LOS ANGELES, April 22.-A ione bandit held up and robbed the mail train leaving this city last night.

LEASING PLAN
 DOES NOT WORK
Western Governors Protest Against Government Plans Which Caused
 Loss in Mining Output.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-Governor Spry of Utah, and Governor Am mons of Colorado, today appeared before the House committee on mines and opposed the leasing of government mineral land, claiming that the sys- tenn, which has been used in Colo rado and Utah for the past few years, has resulted in the reduction of the output of the mines and the failure to develop the resources of Colorado and Utah.
 Governor Ammons told the com mittee that the output from his state had decreased $2O,00O,0OO annually since the forestry department had been placed in charge of the public lands of the state, and that land with out timber, but rich in minerals, was being held up and could not be de- veloped.
 The leasing system prevented large expenditures of money, as the leases were short lived and revokable and no business man would think of talk ing a chance on claims that could be worked at little cost and therefore none of the deep deposits were be- ing utilized.

CAPTAIN BARRY
 LOSES LICENSE
Was in Command of the Nantucket When She Rammed the Monroe
 and 41 Lives Were Lost.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-Steam- boat Inspector General George c. Uhler, of the Department of Com merce, today revoked the license of Captain Barry, who commanded the steamer Nantucket on January 30 when she rammed the Old Dominion liner Monroe, sinking the boat and causing the loss of 41 lives. The The accident happened off the Vir- ginia coast during heavy fog.
 The first investigation made by the inspectors on March 16 resulted in a divided verdict, part of the board holding that Captain Johnson, who commanded the Monroe, had caused the collision because of his giving a wrong signal just prior to the collision. which had misled Captain Barry, and he was charged with incompetence and unskillful management of his vessel and failure to provide for his pas sengers after the accident.
 Inspector Howard, of the board, however, held that Captain Barry was guilty, as he had failed to slow down when he ran into the fog and was running at full speed when he struck the Monroe. -.-.
 The decision rendered today is final and Johnson will not be allowed to command any vessel hereafter.
 Suits for heavy damages have been filed against both companies by the relatives of those who lost their lives and each company has counter claim against one another.
