CRIMINAL CASES
WERE DISMISSED
THREE ACTIONS LONG ON THf
CALENDAR STRICKEN FROM
DOCKET THIS MORNING.
Involves Several Cases of Interest
District Court Term Drawing
to Il Close.

| On motion of the prosecuting at
torney, Judge Steele today dismissed
several criminal actions that have
been on the calendar for several years.
One of the cases dismissed was that of
the state versus Walter Tate, the de.
fendant being charged with cattle
stealing. Two different juries in the
past two years failed to agree. Tate
who is a resident of the Potlatch sec
tion has been at liberty on a $500
bond.
An old case that has been hanging
fire, also dismissed, was that of the
state versus E. ]. Gemmel,' county as
SCISSOR, in which the defendant was
charged with having public printing
done outside of the state contrary to
law. The case went to the supreme
court on a writ of prohibition which
was refused but the action had never
been pushed in the district court by
the complaining witness, P. l.. Orcutt.
The case of the state against l..
Olive Jolly which first saw light in
justice court in North Troy precinct
in which the defendant was charged
with grand larceny of horse, the
having never reached the
district court after the defendant had
been bound over, was also dismiss
ed.
In the case of Fred Campbell versus
l.. Olive Christensen in suit to re-
plevin a horse which occupied the
time of the district court yesterday,
the court held for the plaintiff, the
horse in controversy being ordered
turned over to Campbell.

MUST ABATE THE
SMOKE NUISANCE
SCHOOL BOARD GETS PETITION
ASKING THAT EXCESSIVE
SMOKE BE ELIMINATED.
Heavy Volumes Emitted From High
School Building Chimneys Cause
Complaint.

The abatement of the smoke nuis
ance was one of the chief subjects un.
der discussion at the meeting of the
school board last night, petition
signed by w. NJ. Morgan, E. S. Barton
and others having been filed with the
ken to abate the nuisance of smoke
rising from the new high school build
ing chimneys, the petition alleging that
in effect it had tendency to destroy
property and household goods.
The board took immediate action in
the matter appointing committee
consisting of l.. F. Parsons and w. NJ
Morgareidge to act Immediately in in
vestigating the cause and to endeavor
to remedy the nuisance.
When interviewed this morning,
Mr., Parsons said that the committee
appointed to deal with the problem of
the smoke nuisance would take at once
the necessary steps to correct the
evil.
I'VE will endeavor to find out at
once what the experience of other
cities has been in this matter and
what solution they have found. 1t
may be necessary to consult an ex-
pert on heating plants to determine
the cause of the excessive smoke from
the new furnace. The problem may
be merely one of correct firing and
it may be on the other hand a more
lifficult one. The members of the |
BOARD are of course not conversant |
With these matters but will ait once |
zee to it that competent authorities |
AXE up the matter"
During the session Superintendent |
Randall submitted his regular month
y report of the condition of the Mos
ow schools showing the institutions
o be in healthy state. Those pres
mt were Messrs. Morley, Morgareidge,
Estes and Parsons. Absent, DR.. Clark
nd Mrs. Merwin. The board will meet

ence with the leaders. Mr.. Martin is
was the candidate of the party in Ida

third but that does not deter him
from again going before the people.
"The progressive party in Idaho
was never in better shape than it is
at the present time and sentiment is
growing strong in favor of the elm
ination of the other old line parties
in political power in this state" said
Mr.. Martin today.
I'VE must carry the fight for pro-
gressive principles into every county
of the state and there is not the least
doubt of success at the polls. / am
in favor of placing a full state ticket
in the field and a complete ticket in
every county of the state. The time
is now opportune for the progressive
party of Idaho to assert itself and the
followers of that organization will
rally in sufficient forces at the polls
at the next election to insure a sweep
ng victory for the party

VIII Arouse Farmers.

"These movable schools" stated
Professor Olin today, "are calculated
to arouse the farmers to the realiza-
ton that they have a specific work,
as important an influence and as dig
nified position as is any other call
ing in lafe and that they need only to
get together for the success and proper
solution of all problems connected
with their important business"
Following the movable schools and
institutes the university field men will
get into the field with the farmers
and make an effort to assist them in
putting into practical application the
principles which they have been
taught.
