CAN CUT DOWN
ON PAVING COST,
OFFICIALS SAY

As the result of a visit to confer
with Newark officials yesterday,
Mayor Ferd Garretson, members of
the street committee and City Engi-
neer Samuel j. Mason believe that
numerous bids for furnishing block
for paving Front street will be re-
ceived February / to the advantage
of the city. One official of the street
department stated today that he ex-
pected the city would benefit three
fold by the trip. All of the officials
appear pleased with the propositions
which the City of Newark has to
offer They believe that much money
can be saved on paving material, and
that the action to thus pave Front
street might be the first step for
paving branch. 1t is believed by
local officials that an alleged paving
combine can be broken up by such
department.
Break Up Alleged Combine.
Mayor Garretson has stated re
peatedly that the best means of hav-
ing paving work done here, which
would probably be the best way of
breaking up an alleged combine,
would be to award separate contracts
for the foundation and top surfacing
But, he concluded, that under the
present law there appeared to be no
way of legally splitting the work up
in that manner By securing bids for
excavating, concreting and other
foundation work, all CONTRACTORS
l. .Lxa-l-~.--ss@~r---~--s.---- -
an equal chance. The executive
would then advertise for the best
propositions for top-surfacing, in a
similar way TO which fire apparatus
is advertised for, and the city could
select the proposition 1t deemed best
for the money involved.
The Board of Aldermen will re-
ceive bids at $3.50 o'clock Monday
night, February /. for furnishing
$4,000 granite blocks. The bidders
must state the size of block and the
time of delivery. The officials who
went to Newark yesterday feel con-
fident that they will receive some
good bids from Newark, probably
from contractors there as well as the
city.
They conferred with members of
the Newark Board of Works, which
was in session yesterday afternoon.
Contractors there raised objection to
having Newark bid on material and
paving work. There are about six
stone yards in and about Newark,
for which reason local officials ex-
pect numerous bids for the stone.
They believe that some of them Will
be for block F. o. B. Perth Amboy.
The visiting officials also went to
engine house No. 23 In Newark and
there viewed motor-drawn fire appa-
ratus, with which they appeared
pleased.

Millions Of acres OF raw sagebrush
land have by the beneficial applica-
ton of irrigation, been converted into
productive fields and veritable gard
ems, and there are yet millions of
acres of virgin soil to which water will
eventually be applied and made to
support many times our present pop
ulation. The placing under irrigation
Of these large areas of land have ne
cessariiy caused constant tapping of
our lakes and streams, thus gradually
reducing the available water supply,
which in time may provoke much I'M
necessary litigation, unless. the laws
relating to the application and use of
water are made more clear. One of
the duties devolving on the commits

to me to read because 1t was, he SAID,
an authority with all German officers
in tactical matters and was really part
of their military education
Il was not especially interested, not
being much of soldier, but when
saw the book my interest very ma
terially increased, for it was a copy of
'Drei Jahre I'm Sattel' by Heros Won
Borke, the representative of Germany
with Gen. Jeb Stuart's cavalry in our
Civil war the English title being
Three Years in the Saddle Won
Borke had not only been with the Con-
federate general for three years, but
he was in the thick of it and had
written story that was intensely in
teresting for its daring adventure and
was of such technical and tactical
value as to warrant the unusual posi-
ton accorded it by German military
authorities
THE fact that l was Yankee did
not lessen my pride the least in Gen.
eral Stuart's work, for we were all
good Americans by that time and l
was proud to know that we were
teaching Germany one style of fight
Ing anyhow. The book was in Ger

That the mine fire which has ragged

ISIS THEATRE NEXT WEEK
"Mr. Butties" Three Reel Farce.t ON
edy for Monday and Tuesda..

"Mr. Buttles" is subtle and pleas
ing three-reel farce comedy with its
setting at the country seat of an Eng
lish lord. 1t is veritable comedy 6l
errors, with amazing situations con
stantly arising to be untangled by the
ever competent Mr.. Buttles, who has
the combined qualifications of a gen.
eral, a financier, and shrewd poll
tician. This part is ably carried out
by Harry Dunkinson.
Richard Travers, who plays the dual
roles of the English nobleman and a
London newspaper man, his double
with great cleverness, and Miss Edna
Mayo as the leading woman, make the
play and exceptionally strong one. II
is full of puzzling situations with sur
prises at every turn.
Mr.. Buttles is Machiavellian but
Ter at Everdun Towers, the estate of
the Earl of Everdun. He forms cor
poration of the servants to work for
tips from guests and persuades the
impecunious Earl to lend his name as
drawing card at a salary of $500
pounds for the Season.
The Earl by persuasion and quick
action, gets Higgins, his chauffeur,
who is his double in appearance, to
masquerade as His Lordship, while
he slips off to Paris. Higgins real
name is Hemingway, an author and
London newspaper man looking for To-
cal color Higgins falls in love with
Sallie Fighter, an American heiress
and guest at the Towers
Higgins tells Sallie who he really
is, but Buttles, fearing the end of his
money-making scheme, makes the girl
think he is bit balmy. Higgins is
led into compromising situation
through the visit of chorus girl, one
of the sweethearts of the Earl. Buttles
extricates him from his predicament
upon his promise not to reveal his true
identity.
Buttles engineers two proposed
elopements in such way that he
stops both and gets handsome tips for
his pains. The Earl, in the meantime
is informed of the love affair of his
double and Sallie Fighter. He re-
turns to stop the match and is assail-
ed by the girls father as reprobate
By skillful maneuvering Buttles per
suades the Earl to leave with Gwendo
Ign, for which Higgins agrees to act
out the part Of His Lordship to the enc
of the season, Miss Fighter alone
knowing the secret The syndicate
reaps a rich reward. Adapted from

PRESIDENT BRANNON RESIGNS
Head Of State University Quits His
Position.

Boise, April 5-To relieve the
state board of education from embar-
assment it is confronted with in con-
nection with his salary, President NJ
A. Brannon of the University of Ida
no has placed his resignation in the
hands of the board, which will meet
here this week Wednesday to take ac-
ton. President Brannon's resignation
is brief and to the point 1t is as fol-
lows:
ITO the state board of education:
In order to release from any embar-
assment in connection with the con-
tract made with myself year ago,
l beg to hand you herewith my resig-
nation as professor of botany and
president of the university, the same
to take effect July 1, 1915"
The facts behind the resignation are
substantially as follows: When the
educational budget was being made
up by the last legislature and SILL
900 was cut out Of it by the senate
finance committee, conference com
mittee of both houses was appointed
to agree on the amendments. The
salary of Edward O. Sisson, commits
sioner of education, was cut from
$4,000 to $4,000 per annum. The con-
ference committee made separate
report to the state board of educa-
ton recommending that President
BrannOn's salary be reduced from
$4,000 to $4,000 per annum. His con-
tract calls for $4,000 per annum. This
report never reached the journals of
either house. The legislature adjourn
cd March 8. President Brannon pre-
sented his resignation March is. 1t

EASTERN CATTLE GUARANTEED
Shipments. OF Hogs and Cattle Will be
Held Up Until June Both.

No matter how badly the Idaho
farmer may wish to import eastern
thoroughbred dairy or beef stock, he
cannot do so until after June 30, 1915.
Such is one of the effects of a proc
lamation issued Friday by the gov
ernor. 1t prohibits the importation of
cattle or hogs from any states except
Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Colo
RADIO, California, Utah, Montana, Wy
oming, Arizona, New Mexico and
Texas.
The governor declared the procla-
nation to be necessary for the protec-
ton of the live stock industry in Idaho
and to secure shipping privileges to
other states. He declared that the
state veterinarian had notified him
that the issuance OF such a proclama-
ton would be necessary to conform to
the rules adopted at meeting of the
sanitary conference of western states
held at San Francisco recently in con-
nection with the meeting of the Ma
tional Live Stock association.
When shipments are made to Idaho
from the states not coming under the
prohibition, the animals, if not des-
tined for immediate slaughter, must
be accompanied by certificate of in
,spection, and if they are shipped in
railroad stock cars, the cars must be
cleaned and disinfected prior to load
ing.
When shipments. are made of an
imals for immediate slaughter they
must be accompanied by signed
statement Of the shipper, showing the
purpose of shipment.
Horses and mules will be permitted
to enter the state only when accom-
panied by certificates of inspection
and after their mouths and tails have
been disinfected No poultry will be
permitted to be shipped in from states
where federal quarantine against foot
and mouth disease has been establish
ed.

WYOMING IMPOSES EMBARGO
Rigid Ruling of NeighbOring State
Makes Heavy Burden.

According to the embargo that has
been placed by Wyoming against cat
tie, sheep and hogs, the Short Line
Will be put to considerable expense
in the matter of disinfecting the To-
cal stockyards and freight cars. The
embargo is very drastic and provides
that no cattle, sheep or hogs will be
received into Wyoming either for To-
cal consignment or through shipment
until the provisions of the disinfec-
ton process have been carried out
and permission is secured from the
governor of that state The order
does not apply to horses, mules or
Jacks.
1t is figured at the local offices
that it will cost in the neighborhood
of $4,000 to Immediately carry out the
rule of the embargo, as that amount
Of money will nave to be expended
for disinfectants.
Not only does the order require
that no market stock can be loaded
or unloaded for shipment into Wyom-
ing, without first being disinfected,
but such process will have to be re-
peated with each shipment, which
makes rather rigid bar to shipping.
The stockyards and cars will have to
be disinfected after the last ship
ment before another consignment can
go through, and this being the case
il might have the result of the com
pany unwittingly violating the fed
eral regulation were a car, because Of
having broken down, to be set out in
that state.
The embargo is the result of the
regulation imposed by the federal au-
thorities against the foot and mouth
disease in cattle, and though very lit
tie of that disease has been encoun-
tered IN this state, good many cases
of it have been found in Montana, as
many shipments go through Pocatello,
disinfecting will have to be done here

pointed out the high motives which

The schoOlteacher noticed that one
boy did not pay attention to the in

asked him:
What motives took the Territorials

The boy was puzzled for moment,

Must Accompany Regiments.

It is not generally known that
clergy who have accepted British
army chaplaincies in time of peace
cannot refuse to accompany their
regiments when OF active service,
however strong the claims of their
parishes may be- The bishop OF Lon
don has been criticized for his readi-
ness to leave his diocese for six weeks
to accompany the London Rifle bri-
gade wherever they may be sent, but
he really has no choice in the matter,
having accepted the chaplaincy. II
he refused he would be liable to ar.
rest and trial by court-martial.
