vesting attachment. Threshing was
done with an Idaho thrsereh, which
was found to do perfect work, without
breaking the peas. The crop was
strongly mixed with wild oats which
cut down the yield, but it produced
l2a bushels per acre, and sale was
made to the Seattle firm at cents
per pound. The yield was evident
not up to what it should be under
favorable condition, but the price was
probably above the average. The seed
was inoculated with culture from the
university, and this Mr.. O'Conner
deems necessary, for small plot not
SO treated failed to produce.
Mr.. O'Conner will next year put in
ITO acres of peas on his summer fal-
low. These he intends to drill in rows
and cultivate, by which method he
expects to receive a much larger yield
This years crop was of Alaska and
Blue Prussian, 800 sacks of the for.
mer, but the seed kept was all of the
latter, from which the next crop will
be sown.

Pigs Not Always Pigs, Says Court

The Supreme Court of Idaho refuses
to punish Blair Hoar. Extra compen-
sation is decared illegal, but in Hoar s
case, not fees in technical sense.
On October 30th the Supreme Court
handed down a decision in the Blair
E. Hoar custer suit, affirming the
judgment of the lower court. While
holding that county officials are not
entitled to extra compensation for
services rendered to the county in
their official capacity or otherwise.
and that the contract entered into be-
tween Blair E. Hoar and the County
Commissioners of Clearwater county
on February 2Srd, 1918, whereby Hoar
was to receive an extra $75 per month
for bringing land indexes down to
date, was illegal and void and that an
appeal from the action Of the Board of
County Commissioners might have
been successfully prosecuted at the
time, or an action maintained for the
recovery of the money so paid, the

Court nevertheless holds that the de-.
fendant may now keep the money and
that plaintiff must pay the costs.
In holding that Section 7459 of the
Penal Code does not apply the Su-
preme Court, by implication, reverses
its former ruling, or the strength Of
which this action was brought. in the
case OF Robinson V. Huffaker, involy-
ing county commissioner Of Bonne-
vile County, wherein it was held.
There can be no question but that the
section (7459) applies to claim or
charge made by public officer for
services, or under any contract with
the municipality of which such officer
is an official, where such officer makes
a claim against the municipality
whereby the officer seeks to receive
not provided or author

Orofino is the gateway.
The people of the upper Mississippi
valley are hungry for land where
they can not only raise wheat and
corn, but, fruit and such vegetables
as mature to perfection in the Clear
water valley. Thousands will come
to northern Idaho if this section will
only wake up and do some advertis-
ing.
The railroad company will furnish
car, and haul the exhibit over it's
line at the railroads expense. We
must furnish the exhibit ard send
somebody along to look after it.

"A Fool There Was" In Orofino

Miss Theba Bara, the Partisan
actress, who plays the vampire woman
in "A Fool There Was,'' William
Fox production extraordinary, admits
that one striking feature of her i'm
personation is due to the careful
schooling she underwent to adopt a
peculiar serpentine walk which she
uses with great effect in her playing
of the part. Miss Bara is a warm
friend of Isadora Duncan, the famous
classical dancer, and Miss Duncan in
structed her in the 1.-the, sinuous
movements characteristic of the vam-
pire-women of Porter Emerson
Brownies greatest success.
''My idea has always been,'' said
Miss Bara, ''that the gestures and
walk of person must be influenced
by their character. My idea of this
woman is that she is pantherish in her

Here Is A Good Business Opening

Chas. E. Arney, industrial agent
for the Northern Pacific railroad COM
pany, while in Orofino last spring,
expressed surprise that so valuable a
business as the Orotino lime plant was
not being operated. He said it was
one business for whose output there is
good and sufficient demand, and that
every pound of lime could be sold.
Inquiry discloses the fact that about
$6, 600 in money is needed to start this
plant, including, of course, a practi-
cal lime man to operate it. And
somewhere in this country is such
man looking for just such an oppor-

should Mr.. Buck not issue the invita-
tions?
The Clearwater Republican will put
that in the the form of a motion.
Few of the leaders of the party in
the north find it convenient to partici-
pate in the regular meetings at Boise,
and undoubtedly much general good
may be accomplished at local meet
ing at which representative republi-
cans may appear and express them
selves. The people of Lewiston,
Moscow and Grangeville are as segre-
gated from Wallace, Coeur d'Alene
and Standpoint as they are from Boise
and the south end, but without any
good reason.

How much our band added to the sue
cess of the recent fair. How much it
will be worth in the future. Let us
get behind it and boost. Let our
band have uniforms, and let the wom-
en- of Orofno see that this is realized.
The band is another of the things
everybody can support and boost.
The business men appreciate this.
Last week, when a subscription list
was circulated to raise a monthly al
lowance for the support of an instruc-
tor the people responded cheerfully
and loyalty. Almost $50 per month
has been pledged. That is fine. The
people are united for their band.

The starting of this manufacturing
industry would afford steady employ
ment for some half dozen men, and
market for much wood, also requiring

A good servant is one who Is careful
in the doing Of little things, the speak
er explained. We Christian servants
are often unwilling to do little things
for God. For instance, some mothers
think 1t unnecessary to teach their
children to say, Now I lay me down
to Sleep" when they are put to bed.
They think 1t unnecessary to ask some
unsaved one to come to church. These
little things are links Of great chain
which we must forge for God, If we
would receive life. We should not try
to do as little as we can for the Mas
servant in the world is mother. and it
is so because Of her love for her chill
dren.
Suppose in a home there are six
persons and five pieces of cake. Each
child gets a piece of cake and yet one
person goes without. That person Is
mother. She, too, likes cake, but has
sacrificed her desire out of love to the
little ones. Jesus Is like mother, only
more loving and thoughtful. He gave
his life for us.
Christians are like unto a vessel.
There are thousands Of men and wo-
men and children dying for lack of
the water Of life. God wants us to be
the vessels to convey that water Of
life to them.
Suppose, my friends, concluded DR..
Black, you decide to say, Take me,

you Of your hatred and malice, then
he would cleanse you and then he

Of Good Reputation.-Col.. A. B. Will
liams. editor Of the Richmond Journal,
has much familiarity with South Car
olina people and South Carolina con-
ditions. Copying the Observers arti-
Gle on the proposition to advance Rev.
Richard Carroll to the leadership of
the colored race in place Of Booker T.
Washington, he makes the statement
that Carroll is in many respects bet
ter man than was Washington. "In
the most trying and sometimes dan
gerous conditions in South Carolina"
says the Journal, "he has been work.
ing now more than 20 years for his
people. He has worked faithfully, dill
igently, ably, bravely, patiently and
unostentatiously and having very little
to work with-no millionaires behind
him. He has carried himself so tact
fully and skillfully as to win and hold
the confidence and good will of all the
white people; and he has produced
practical results for the good Of both
races in the state" Evidently, Mr.. j.
G. Butler, the steel manufacturer of
Ohio, who suggested Carroll as WASH

field as one with a knowledge Of peo-
pie and conditions, and that he has
brought forward a successor who
