BINGHAM JAIL LOSES BOOZE
Three Hundred Dollars Worth OF LII.
quOr Stolen From Sheriff.

One of the most daring robberies
ever perpetuated in Bingham county
was pulled off last Saturday night
probably between the hours of 1913
and II O'Clock, when $500 worth OF
liquor was stolen from the sheriff's
quarters in the courthouse.
Sheriff Jones and his wife left the
courthouse last Saturday night about
1920 o'clock and about five minutes
after they were gone Deputy Fackrell
the only man who stays in the court
house all night, was called over in
town to serve summons upon g
man who lives in the country, but
who happened to be in town at this
time. The robbers were evidently ac-
quainted with this fact because sew
eral persons stated that they heard
noises around the courthouse at about
this time.
When Deputy Fackrell returned he
found that the vault in which the
confiscated liquor was kept, had been
broken into, a number of suitcases
of whiskey, some unbroken cases,
and ten-gallon key had been taken
away. The staple on the lock show
ed where it had been cut with pair
of pincers. The vault is located un-
der the solid concrete steps at the rear
entrance of the courthouse, and the
only access to it is through this one
door, which is about three feet
square. In their haste to be away
before someone returned they had
dropped two or three bottles on the
sidewalk.
Everything seemed to play into the
hands of the robbers, the arc light
which is located in the middle of the
tShilling' and Judicial streets, andl
which shines directly upon the back
door of the courthouse was not burn
ing, giving them the extra protection
of the cover of darkness.
The men who took the liquor were
very bold about their robbery, be-
cause they had several of the citizens
of Blackfoot in state of hilarity
before midnight, some of them had
to be taken to the Jail in order to
allow the peaceable residents to get
their nights rest.
The stolen liquor was part Of the
store of contraband whiskey siezed
by the sheriff and his officers in re-
cent raids and taken from alleged
bootleggers, some of whom will be
tried during the present term of the
court. Only a small portion of the
stock of liquor in the sheriffs cache
was carried away, the value of the
stuff left behind being estimated at
about $20000.-Blackfoot Courier

The affairs in Mexico are getting to
the boiling point very rapidly with
the recent killing of the British sub
ject, Benton. Great Britain is looking
to the United States for protection for
British subjects and British property
because of the stand taken by this ma
ton on the Monroe Doctrine Tension
seems to have reached the breaking
point and with the foreign powers egg
ing on President Wilson will probably
be forced to take more active mea-
sures and bring matters to a head.
Mexico as far as it's ability to sustain
permanent government is in no bet
ter condition than was the Philippines
at the time of American conquest.
The nation which will step in and
bring order out Of chaos in Mexico
may not be particularly popular with
the fire-eaters down there, but will
eventually have the respect of future
Mexico. European powers never fail
to interior when like situation
threatens the peace and welfare of the
continent. There is no reason why
turmoil and rioting in Mexico should
be allowed to continue until the well
fare of the other nations of the Ameri-
can continent are threatened by an
armed Intervention by foreign powers.
England has perfect right to demand
protection of her subjects in Mexico.
The only weak position is that of the
United States which upholds doc
trine but fails to assume a right thus
maintained for SO many years.

The meeting of the council Wednes-
day night with the citizens proved to
be interesting in a good many ways
and probably paved the way for more
aggressive action toward correcting
the legal contentious between the city
and the water company regarding the
paving. If the meeting did no more
than give the council the impression
that the people will back them in the
suit for damages now in court, it was
time well spent for both sides.
