Ends Long Agitation.


Almost from the time the mayor took
charge of the police department, little
over year ago, complaints have been
made to him that the laws regarding
prostitution in Boise were not being
enforced by the department. The COM
plants were first made by members of
the Inter church council and as it was
claimed conditions were growing worse
instead of better, an organization
known as the Law Enforcement league
was formed and money was contrib
Uted by private citizens to hire special
detectives to investigate conditions
with the result that a number of bawdy
house proprietors were arrested and
convicted in tho municipal court and
several convictions secured in the dis
trict court when appeals were taken.
Not only did the special detectives Sc
cure evidence Of bawdy houses existing,
but also OF the illegal sale Of liquor in
such places and a number of convic-
tions were secured on those charges.
Councilman Eichelberger also got
active when numerous complaints were
made and personally hired two anna
teur detectives, who secured evidence
of the illegal sale of liquors and
llIOuBu LuelT WOIk bOfn6 Six COnVlC-
tions were secured. In the face of all
the convictions, which were considered
as positive proof that the police depart
ment was not doing It's duty in per-
mitting such places to exist. no re-
movals were made by Mayor Hodges,
who gave it out that he felt the depart
ment was doing all within it's power to
keep down vice In the city.
Charges Were Filed.
The affair finally eliminated in a
dozen or more business men waiting
in body on the city council and
bringing the matter directly before the
members, asking that some action be
taken to stop the open violations of the
law. Through their spokesman, Harry

Submarine Considered
Most Important Weapon
of Present Day Warfare
Bv dsSocinted Prcts

London, Sept. %, 1910 a. m.-The
destruction in twenty minutes of the
three cruisers, the Aboukir, Hogue
and Cressy, by an attack of five Ger
man submarines in the North Sea
was the severest loss that the British
Navy had sustained during the war.
The Germany policy of keeping tho
German battle fleet in harbor and at
tempting to pick off British ships one
by one thus far has resulted in the
loss of three 12.000-ton cruisers, the
Pathfinder, of 5000 tons, and two
small craft destroyed by mines. Ad-
miral Percy Scott's recent declaration
portant weapon in modern naval war
fare, which caused much controversy,
seems likely to be vindicated.
German submarine recently
made a accommodating cruise to the
Scottish coast, according to a letter
written by a German sailor and pub
lished in the German newspapers. She
was ten days abesent from her base
and went all along the English coast,
at times under water, and passed un-
der a British squadron.
1T was the prettiest picture / ever
saw" the sailor wrote. "Up there,
like a lot of peaceful lambs, lay the
English squadron, without a care and

declares that the Underwood Simmons

There is no need to put new taxes
on the people at this time" Mr.. Mann

falling off in customs receipts during
