Necessity For Free Libraries.
Rathdrum, Ida, Mar. 6, 1916

"If 1t is the duty of the state to
give each future citizen an opp0r-
tunitY to learn to read 1t is equally
its duty to give each citizen an OPP
portunlty to use that power wisely
for himself and the state. Whole
some literature can be furnished TO
all theTeaders in community AT d
fraction Of the cost necessary to teach
them to read, and the power to read
may then become a means TO a life
long education. A library Is an
essential part Of a broad system OF
education and community should
think it as discredtable to be with
out a well conducted free public
library as 10 be without good
school,"

DISARNS DEPUTY

The four coIored gentlemen
whose trial came off before
Judge Hansen in the town hall
last Saturday brought out some
very interesting facts. 1t seems
as if these gentlemen were en-
gagged in their usual thirty-cent
game and that a decoy was used
by the sheiff's Office in trapping
them. However, two of them
plead guilty and were fined $100I
each by Judge Hansen which
was afterward RENTED to $50;
one of the others proved to have
had nothing to do with the affair
and the charges against the
fourth, who was presumably a
stool pidgeon of the sherif's s, was
dismissed.
After the trial this decoy was
armed with a revolver, possibly
by the sheriff or some of his dep
uties, which necessitated Mar
shall Dunham disarming him lat
er.
It appears the whole affair was
brought about to gain notriety,
but such action as was taken ap-
parently does not appeal to the
people of WinsloW, as the peace
officers, or those responsible for
their arrest, seem to be only
trouble makers.
An interesting incident trans
pired when Deputy Sheriff Vol
mer accusted one of the above
mentioned aforesaid gentlmen
out near the round house, accord
ing to reports, and requested
him to consider himself under
arrest, which was to the effect
that the deputy was disarmed.
From the same reliable source it
was reported later that the gen
tleman in question absolutIy den
led having disarmed the deputy
and said he must have been
scared and dropped his gun.

BREAKS
At ST. JOHNS
Eight Lives Known TO Have Been Lost Damage Estmat-
cd at $4OOOOOOO. Water Splashes Badge at
Hobrook

The. reservoir at ST. Johns
broke shortly before midnight
Wednesday night without warn
ing, and $1,000 acre feet Of wat
er bushed down carrying death
and destruction before it. Eight
lives are known TO have been
lost and many other people who
were in the path of the flood are
missing. A party of tourists com
prised of two men, two women
and a Japanee, were picked up
Thursday. 1t is not known from
what part of the country they
hailed. Three American child
ren were drowned and five. Mex
ican children are missing, and it
is thought that without a doubt
thep are lost. A great many are
missing from a settlement Of a.
bout fifty Mexicans that lay just
below the reservoir.
The waters in their rush broke
the reservoir at Hunts Bridge
which is estimated to have con-
tanned another 5000 acre feet Of
water. Owing to the spread of
water as it crossed comparative
ly level country, and owing to
the fact that it had to force it's
way through narrow canyon
before reaching Holbrook, but
little damage was done in the
Cotnty seat.
This is the second time this
reservoir has broken in the last
ten years, and it is estimated
that $4,000 acres of land in the
southern part Of the county will
be without water this year. An
other reservoir viii probably be
constructed Of concrete but can
not be put in in time to save this
years crops.
The Hunt bridge was washed
away.
