Progressive Party
To Continue

Boise, Idaho, Jan. f6.-The ell
ectors of the progressive party
will be kept intact and remain a
seperate unit in politics. In
concrete form this was the unan~
imous decision of the leaders in
conference here today. This
plan was enthusiastically indors-
ed by the 40 representatives pres
ent from ii counties.
The progressive leaders feel
that their party is largely re-
sponsible for bringing about the
exposures that have and are con-
tinuing to be made in connection
with the handling of state ar
fairs.
A resolution was adopted call
ing for a national nominating and
platform convention to be called
in May.
Call for the conference was is
sued by State Chairman Gipson
about two weeks ago. He ex-
pressed the belief at the time of
issuing the call that the party
would remain intact. He insists
that the party has done good
work for Idaho and nationally.
In a recent interview Chairman
GIBSON charged the republican
party with being reactionary and
pointed as proof of this declara-
ton to the return to power of
Joe Cannon and other leaders,
who temporarily were out of the
running. He also condemned
the G.. o. p. on the ground that
it was again dominated by such
men as Penrose and Boss

Submits Report

To the Board Of Trustees of
the ST. Maries Public Library.
Ladies and Gentlemen: I
herewith submit the second an
nual report of the present Ii
brarian Of ST. Maries public Ii
brary.
Building-Perhaps the most
notable feature of the year 1914
has been moving into the new
building which the board Of trus-
tees had decorated with paint and
paper on the interior and tung-
stems were installed giving us fine
lighting facilities and these i'm
provements give the library
more inviting atmosphere.
Accessions- Gifts-The most
important gifts were a set of 46
volumes of 1.-THE Worlds Best
Literature" Mr.. C. C. Proctor OF
Great Falls, Mont, being the do
nor, and ~ volumes of the works
of Voltaire, given by Mr.. J. E..
Jones of this city.
The library has received num-
erous books, papers and maya
zines and the list of donors is
so long as to make it impossible
to include it inthis report. This
opportunity is taken to make &C
acknowledgement to the many do
nors.
During the month of April we
received "A volumes from the
State Library Commission. These
were a valuable addition to our
little library and were much ap-
preciated.
City Press-The city press has
been one Of the most important
factors in increasing the use of
1.-The library. "The Record" and
1.-The Gazette" should be thank
ed for their courtesy in giving
of space to lists and library
items.
Board-It is but a small re-
turn TO acknowledge the indebt-
edness due TO The trustees by the
Taxpayers for their unequalled
labor and interest in the perform
ance Of their duties. Possibly
10 may be years before there is q
realization on the part of the
general public of the benefits ac-
cruing to the library through

about my looks. but l shut him up al
right by saying:
If you ever turn that face OF
yours to the sky when 1t rains you'll
drown to death unless you get some

just about us hot as Washington can

order to be comfortable yanked of
my coat and collar and after lounging
around awhile decided to start out and
see the city.
When left the elevator and breez-

met was Manager Fred Clarke. He
gave me one look, then drawing me
aside whispered:

. Boxing Notes,

Jack Michigan, the fight promoter
of Philadelphia, is no longer the man
ager of Leo Houck, the middleweight
of Lancaster, Pa. Jack has turned
Houck over to Lou Durlacher, who
officiated as referee and time.keeper
at the National A. c. of "Philly" over
a year ago. Durlachcr also has Jack
Reed, the Toledo heavyweight, under
his management.
Young Ahearn, who proved such a
sensation in his battles with Leo
Houck, Jack Dillon and Jimmy Clabby
that he is now regarded one of the
stars in the middlewight division Is as
good as matched to meet Eddie Nc
Goorty for 10 rounds at a show to be
held in New York.
Al Mccoy, Brooklyn middelweight,
was nearly beaten by one Of his own
seconds in New York Monday night.
When Mccoy returned to his corner,
after the third round of his bout with
Tommy Madden. a second handed him
a bottle OF ammonia. Mccoy, think
ing 1t was water, took mouthful. He
quickly spouted it out and began yell
ing for a doctor. One was at hand
and after a five minutes treatment
Mccoy was able to resume.
George Novick. a likely looking
middleweight from Pittston, Pa, Is in
New York City in search for bouts
with all the top-notchers of his class.
The best thing in his record is vic
tory over Mantell, the Pawtucket
lightweight. Novick has been boxing
two years and says he has learned
enough in that time to tackle the best
men OF his weight.
Unless Freddie Welsh and his man
ager, Harry Pollok. cut down the sum
they demand for Welsh to box in New
Orleans. the chances are that Freddie
will never fight there. Pollok only
wants $4,000 to be paid Welsh before
he enters the ring, with an option OF
fifty per cent, of the receipts, fifty
one per cent of the moving picture
rights, $500 training expenses and four
railroad tickets.
