ANOTHER ATTACK
ON COMMISSION
MADE IN court
Arguments Are Presented
Involving the Constitu-
tionality Of the Idaho Pub
lie Utilities Act.

The second case involving the oon-
stitutionality of the public utilities
commission act, or the application for
writ of review made by the Idaho
Power & Light company to review the
findings Of the commission in oaruing
that company from the Buhl field in
Twin Falls county. was argued before

the city of Twin Falls, that company
started 30 erect its pole line towards
and into the town of Bull which Is
served by the Great Shoshone oom-
pany. The latter company filed q com
plant before the commission alleging
the Idaho Power & Light company had
no right to enter the Bull field, having
failed to secure certificate of public
convenience and necessity, as required
by the act creating the commission,
and also setting forth that the Great
Shoshone company was in control Of
the field and able to furnish all the
electrical energy required by consum
ers: that to permit the Idaho Power a.
Light company to enter the field would
only result in duplication of electric
power systems and wasteful competi-
ton.

JOYS OF CHRISTMAS
RULE OFFICIAL RANKS
Cabinet Members Give Express
sion to Thoughts of Holiday
Spirit.

Cppermost in the holiday spirit of this
nation is the devastation of Europe S
war, as indicated by Christmas greet
ings given By prominent officials.
THE great need and sorrow Of the
world increased this Christmas time
because 50 many children i'm Europe
have been orphaned by the war. has en-
banced tie Joy OF giving far above
the hope Of receiving, and 1 am glad
OF that said Secretary Daniels.
Thousands Of children In American
homes-cottaEes as well as well as
brown stone mansions-have made real
sacrifices TO send material aid and
comfort in this time of stress to the
little folks of Europe, and 10 make them
feel that the spirit of Christmas love
for them is aglOW in our hearts"
Secretary of war Garrison contributed
his message of Christmas cheer to the
American people when asked what they
could do b restore peace and good Will
among men as follows: "All I can
suggest is that each citizen should do
his duty in that sphere Of life TO which
he has been called and trust that in
Gods own good time the wisdom of
Providence will be made manifest"
Secretary Of Labor Wilson's Christmas
greetings were: IF the true spirit of
Christianity could be implanted into the
minds Of all men, wars between nations
would be impossible and industrial strife
would end. Poverty would no longer
exist. because all would be rich in ma
terial comfort and in spiritual happi-
ness. May each recurring Christmas
give US additional light 10 lead US 10
the achievement Of Christian ideals
Speaker Champ Clarks yuletide
bought was: Christmas was originally
a strictly Christian celebration. While
il is still Il Christian celebration, il has
broadened into an almost universal
festival. 1t is the season for loosening
of purse strings and heart strings. The
naked are clothed, the hungry fed, and
the sick ministered unto. II is a festival
of reunited families. often gathered to-
gether from the farthest confines Of the
republic. At Christmas time. the par
able OF the Good Samaritan and St
Paurs rhapsody on charity, p the thir-
teenth chapter OF the First Corinthians,
work In the hearts Of men. Good deeds
and kind words are the order OF the
day. Children are made happy. The
elders enter into their happiness and
the beautiful story Of the birth OF Jesus
In a manger IS all pervading God re
praised for Christmas"

BOTH CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS.

Neither Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg nor General Ludenforff, his chief
OF staff. have any illusions as to what
is before the German army in Poland.
Thew both declared there would be
much hard fighting in the campaign
against Warsaw, bur they have the
utmost confidence In final success.
Throughout the advance of the Ger
man army through Poland, Field Mar
shall Won Hindenburg's forces have been
opposed by a vastly superior number
OF Russians. In telling of the fighting
which has resulted in the retirement of
the Russians before Warsaw. the Ger
man commander said:
Several factors in the success of
nv armies against the numerical SUI
perioTity of the Russians. are the rail-
ways which make possible such quick
movements of the Germans. But my
troops have shown the utmost courage
and endurance in battle and during the
long marches which have been made.
With such troops l must succeed.
Praise For the Russians.
The Russians hav- great numbers
OF men. Considering their defective
railways they have often made very
quick movements of troops"
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg Is an
extraordinary type of man. Rugged
and vigorous. he has so manipulated
his numerically weaker forces over the
railroads so as 10 check the Russian
advance upon German territory through
Poland, and finally to hurl them back
upon their own defenseS.
The Washington times., 1914-12-24

The Germans are constantly shifting
their forces To deliver new blows. They
forced the Slavs to give way for thirty
five miles on a l~c running from
Lowicz and LODI to Cracow. The new
Russian position is but twenty miles
from Warsaw.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg said
there were between thirty and forty
RUSSIAN SImy corps Approximately
100000 or 100000 mem opposed to the
German and Austrian lines. which
stretch over a front of go miles.
Since November 13 the Germans have
captured 10000 Russians.
Suffered Enormous Losses.
The Russians have suffered enor-
nous losses in killed, wounded, and
men taken prisoners" the field marshal
said. The heavy casualties which they
suffered in three battles during the last
four weeks resulted In the breaking of
the Russian offensive and resistance
along the entire line.
The Germans are now on the often
sive throughout the front. The Rus
slams today made two counter-attacks,
but were repulsed."
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg is
now receiving attentions which come
only to a popular hero. He receives
daily 800 or 400 letters from admirers of
his military prowess. Many OF these
como from America. but many more are
from Germans, expressing their graft
tude for the Punishment of the danger
OF n Russian invasion OF the Father
land. Presents of every description are
also being showered upon the field mar
shall and the men Of his army. Only
last week 5000 bottles of beer were
sent TO the army headquarters as 4
gift"
