TO ONE AND ALL
Sheriff Jones on
Long Journey

Yesterday afternoon Sheriff Jones
started on long and tedious jour
ney. Armed with extradition papers
he is bound for Austin, the capital of
the Lone Star state to prevail on
the governor to honor the request Of
Governor Haines. From Austin he
will go to Dallas or some other city
in search of commission man who
is charged with Fleeing number of
merchants in this county out of di-
vers sums, from $4OO to $1,000. One
of his dupes in Blackfoot is Mr. De-
Hart, who is $40O short by following
his advice to hold spuds for a bet
ter market
Last winter a firm of Texas COM
mission men known as McDuffey &
Dowrey sent circulars to a number
of our farmers and commission mer-
chants advising them to hold their
potatoes for a better price which they
would soon get by sending them to
their firm in Texas. 1t is alleged
that a number of our farmers and
merchants sent their spuds to these
Texas commission men who did not
wait for the 10 cent raise, but dis
posed of them at any old price and
forgot to remit to their Idaho dupes,
whose loss it is said aggregate sew
eral thousand dollars.

Sudden Death Of
Mrs. McIlveen

Yesterday afternoon another unex-
pected death occurred in Blackfoot,
and the unfortunate victim is Mrs
Arthur McIlveen A few days ago
!! she was a big, beautiful woman, ap-
parently in the best of health and
spirits and today she is corpse.
Tuesday she done her home washing
and in the evening attended the thea
tre with her husband. After the thea
tre was over she and her husband
went to the hospital. where she re-
tired in preparation to submit to an
operation tor ovarian trouble the next
day.
Mr.. Arthur McIlveen informs US
that his wife had long suffered from
this chronic female trouble but re-
fused to be operated on until two
assesses had formed in the pelvic
cavity and an operation was the only
hope Of saving her life. The opera
tion, Mr.. McIlveen informs us, was
successful. but death was caused by
a subsequent hemhorrage which could
not be subdued, although he says Doc
tors Mitchell and Simmons worked
hard to save her and did everything
known to medical skill for their pa
tient. !,
Deceased was "a years Of age and
a native of OratOnia Mimi, where
her parents. three brothers and two
sisters resided WHEN they were last
heard from, and they have been in
formed by wire Of her death. In ad-
dition to the above relatives deceased
leaves devoted husband who is al
most broken-hearted over the loss
of his beloved and faithful wife and
constant companion, who had despair
ed of life before going under the in-
fluence of the anaesthetic.
The funeral will take place next
Sunday afternoon at 2 .Sclock from
the deceaseds late residence on
Adams avenue, near Bridge street.

segregation is a better way to deal
with the insane than sterilization.
Sterilization could be used to better
purpose with the thousands of high
class feeble minded who are outside
of tho institution and who, in his
opinion, are the progenitors of the
feeble minded in large degree than
those who are segregated. If sterilt
zation should be used, he suggests
that it not be used as punitive me
thod as in his opinion, environment
has more to do with criminality than
heredity.
The institution has been able to
provide a large amount of amuse.
mcnt for the inmates during the past
year. A motion picture machine has
been purchased and the service has
been given free. Other methods
used are the weekly dances and tho
orchestra.
All debts of the institution have
been fully paid. There are 295 in

the use of drugs.
The report also contains a state.

pays flattering compliments to the
management of the institution and
the excellent manner in which it has
been handled.
A total of 13 male inebriates and
drug habitues were received at the
asylum. DR.. Hyde says that tho in
stitution has had excellent results in
alcoholics failing to return to their
former habits, but the same success
mas not been met with relative to
those who contract the drug habit, be-

harass and hound the patients to such
an extent after they are released

these patients in insane wards should
be removed by the next legislature

More Room at
Asylum Needed

The annual report Of the board OF
directors of the Idaho insane asylum
Of Blackfoot was filed with Governor
Haines Saturday afternoon. Accom-
panying the report was one from DR..
George e. Hyde, superintendent OF
the institution.
According to the report the insti-
tuition was overcrowded in 1913, re-
sultipg in the killing Of five patients
by one of the inmates. When DR..
Hyde took charge of the asylum he
partially remedicd the trouble by re-
building and remodeling the upper
floors of the old building but there
is need of an appropriation to build
more buildings.
= , There is q need Of library facilities
at the place. The board recommends
the changing of the name from the
Idaho Insane asylum to the Sout''
Idaho Sanitarium.
Praise DR.. Hyde
The work of DR.. Hyde. who took
charge Of the institution July l, 1913
was highly commended. New fir,
protection has been added under his
regime, the burial grounds have bee"
improved. while the bookkeeping sys
tenn has been put on sound basis.
Industrial work has been introduced
by the new superintendent and excel
lent returns have been secured from
1t. The death rate has been low dur
Ing the. past year.
The report of DR.. Hyde goes into
the details of tho running CT the in
stitution since he has taken charge
He recommends increased facilities
Tor the caring Of the patients of the
asylum. At the present time narcotic
and alcoholic cases are mixed with the
insane patients and DR.. Hyde asks for
more room to take care of these pa,
tients. A great deal of success has
been secured in caring for the drug
class of patients and the majority of
those released from the institution
are successful in their fight after
leaving.
Opposes Sterilization
DIR. Hyde discusses at considerable
length the question of sterilization.
He has come to the conclusion that

PREMATURE REPORTS

The reports in several newspapers /
Idaho regarding the capture of the
murderer of Lafe Hampton, the Shell
ley marshal, is very precocious and
unfounded, as there is as yet no
certainty as to the capture of the
right man. Sheriff Jones has three
Mexicans arrested in connection with
the crime, one as a witness and the
other two as suspects. The first
Mexican arrested in Salt Lake City
