rem of school age residing in any
school district in any township in
corporated town or borough, shall
not be transported to a high school
or manual training school unless the
Boards of Education of such munich
pality wherein such children reside
shall, by resolution regularly made
and adopted, consent thereto, from
year to year, which consent shall
set forth that such school district
consents and agrees to transport
such children to a high school or
manual training school. This gives
the local boards authority in the
matter of transportation of pupils.
2. An act to permit male persons
above the age of fourteen years,
residents of this state to fish with
out licenses. The present law re-
quires residents of the state to take
out licenses.
3. An act permitting the owner
of land, whether actually occupied
by him or not, to hunt and fish on
his own land without license. Also
giving the same privilege to the i'm
mediate members of his family. The
present law compels man to secure
license on his own land.
4. An act giving residents of this
State the privilege of taking suckers,
catfish, carp and eels at any time, in
any manner, except by net, without
license. The present law profits
the taking of fish in fresh waters
except by angling. And requires a
license.
5. An act making the office of

SEASON MAY BRING
A BIG SURPRISE
Great test Grid Teams NotsinI
the East This
Year.
BY BROWN H.oLM,Es.,.

The 1915 football season, with more
npsets and surprises than any sea.
son in long time, may also bring
out that the greatest teams in the
country are not to be found In the
cast, but in the northwest. "a
The northwest had already created
a sensation. The Oregon Aggies
jumped half 5wayl across the continent
and walloped the Michigan Aggie, 20
to o. The Michigan Aggies had de.
teated Yost's Michigan uniyersity
eleven, "a too. i59a7lIs
( And yet the Oregon Aggie eleven
is not the best in the northwest.
Washington State, coached by Dietz,
who won fame under the neme Of
Lonestar when he was with the Car.
Isle Indians, wallopeds the Oregon
Aggie, 20 to o.
q On comparative scores the Oregon
Aggies are miles ahead OF Michigan
university and by the same token
Washington State is away ahead Of
the Oregon Aggies. Perhaps, then,
Washington is the equal of Princeton,
Harvard and Yale.
Football men of the northwest have
always claimed their teams have been
heating elevens as good as the big
teams OF the east. They have also
claimed that the best raw gridiron ma.
terial in the country is to be found
in the northwest, where there are
dozens OF big, strong, willing, clean.
living youths, ranging from It's to
200 pounds.
The best material In the northwest,
on. account OF the large enrolment
OF students, is to be found at Oregon
university and Oregon Agricultural
college. Yet, Gilmour Dobie, Wash.
ington university coach, with fewer
men to work with, has turned out
teams that the big elevens OF the
northwest have not beaten In seven
years. And Dobie, with his great
team, is charged with being afraid
to meet Washington State this year.
Perhaps, some OF the best coaches
In the country, are to be found in
the northwest, tooS
Great football has been played on
the coast for years, but Northwestern
players are never recognized in All.
American selections made by eastern.
ers and the teams are seldom given
a great deal OF credit. The Oregon.
Michigan battle gave the northwest
its first chance to break into eastern
lime.light. ys,z'
a better chance is still to come.
The Syracuse eleven, the heaviest in
the country, will play. the Oregon Ag-
gies Dec. !, while on trip to the
coast. The score Of Syracuse against
Oregon. compared with the scores OF
Syracuse against the good teams OF
the east, should throw a bright light
on the situation.
The game probably will serve to
give football IN the northwest the
greatest boost 1t has ever had and
may open the eyes Of folk who think
that only! in the east is the pinnacle
of gridiron efficiency reached.

FROM OCEAN TO OCEAN
Conversation Carried on Over Tele.
phone 3,4O0 Miles.

Perhaps the highest achievement in
the scientific world was reached Mon
day afternoon when telephone CONVEX
sations were carried on between Wash
ington, New York. Boston and San
Francisco, with as much ease as
though those conversing were only a
few miles apart This remarkable
achievement was enjoyed by President
Wilson of the United States, Professor
Alexander Graham Bell the inventor
of the telephone; Thomas A. Watson
the first man to whom Mr.. Bell ever
talked to over the telephone; President
Moore of the Panama Pacific EXPOSE
tion and many Others 1t was the in
auguaration of the transcontinental
commercial telephone system and it
required over 3400 miles Of wire to
connect the eastern with the western
coast. 1t was as though the Atlantic
had reached over in it's mighty SPLEEN
dor and shaken hands with the peace
full Pacific. The conversations occur
red about o'clock eastern time and
i O'Clock western time
President Wilson was the first per-
son not connected with the telephone
company to enjoy the privilege of
hearing a human voice over 3,4OO
miles of wire. He stepped to the tele-
phone and, placing the receiver to

his ear, said in very clear impress
siye tone to President Moore, of the
Panama and Pacific exposition: 1T
appeals to the imagination to speak
across the continent. 1t is fine omen
for the exposition that the first thing
it has done is to send its voice from
sea to sea- | congratulate you on the
fine prospects for a successful expo
sition. | am confidently hoping to take
part in it after the adjournment of
congress. May / not send my greet
ings to the management and all those
whose work has made it possible and
has made it the great event it prom
ises to be, and to convey my personal
congratulations to you?"
AS the president finished, President
Moore of the great exposition re-
sponded: I'VE are looking forward to
your coming here. / think you will be
well pleased with what we have done.
| assure you, Mr.. President, that you
will never receive a welcome that will
be more cordial or more enthusiastic"
Thirty-four years ago, when Alex
ander Graham Bell invented the tele-
phone, his first conversation was with
Mr.. Thomas A. Watson. They talked
over a line two miles long. At the
close of President Wilson's talk with
President Moore, Mr.. Bell, who was
in New York came in on the line, and
Mr.. Watson, who was in San Francisco
was also connected and the three held
a short conversation, congratulating
each other on the scientific achieve
ment. The President said: Il consider
it an honor to be able to express my
for the achievement and
scientific knowledge that has made
this possible, and my pride that this
vital cord should have been stretched

The mystery of Engineer Fox's anXi-
ETY. concerning the bridge matters in
this county may be solved in the minds
OF good many, when the fact
is considered that he has drawn
$3,176.45 since July, 1913, or a
much better salary than is paid
any other county official Perhaps
Mr.. Fox's percentage on the proposed
bridges may account for his anxiety
for some plans now in the air At any
rate Twin Falls county cannot afford
to pay more than five hundred dollars
per year for the work done, and since
that Is set by law, should govern the
county commissioners in hiring any
one for the job. Probably Commits
sioner Carlson as the only remaining
commissioner of the old board can
explain to the taxpayers why the
above big sum was paid out for the
salary of Mr.. Fox and why the job
was not given to some Twin Falls
county man instead of an outsider. No
doubt all the taxpayers will desire to
know why such an ardent advocate of
economy as Mr.. Carlson has seen fit
in this case to break over his prescrib-
ed rule for the rest of the county Of
ficials.
