LET THE O BE DEEP.

A grand jury has begun an investigation al Boise
which may inolve some state officials, both electiye and
appointive. Let the probe be both deep and thorough, to
the end that those guilty, if any, stand forth justly con-
demned, and all no tguilty be given a clearance that will be
respected by all men.
The betrayal of a trust should be made a serious
thing. But in order to punish the guilty no innocent man
should be made to suffer, nor a cloud of suspicion remain
concerning such when the investigation is ended.
During times of political excitement for several years
past, the political atmosphere has at times become satur-
ated by charges of improper conduct directed at officials
Of all political faiths, but the public has not taken them
seriously because it is well known that honesty and sim
cerity of purpose usually do not underlie campaign
charges. But now that two state officials have confessed
to populations, let all charges be investigated to the end
suspicion. Give every "whisperer" that wrong has been
done, every insinuator an opportunity to appear before
the grand jury and be forced to make good his charges
or be publicly discredited. Let no guilty man escape and
no innocent man suffer.

MESSAGE.

Governor Alexander's first message to the Idaho legis-
lature contains little that might be styled constructive.
In common with all his predecessors, he urges strict
economy in administration of public affairs. He insists
that it is possible to reduce the expenses of state govern
ment a million dollars during the ensuing biennial period.
That is true but there is a question whether it could be
done without interfering seriously with the public SER
vice and Gripping our public institutions.
1t is possible for the business to be neglected and to

MORE GROUND
FOR ADDITION
Negotiate for 100 Feet More
Space North of Garfield
Building on South Twelfth
Street.

Two more houses and lots to the
north OF the three lots already pur-
chased by the Richmond board of edu-
cation to permit of the proposed $780,.
900 addition to Garfield school on
South Twelfth street. will be bought
by the board in the near future, ac-
cordfng to Superintendent J. r. Giles
Negotiations are under way with
the owners Of the properties, Mrs.
w. N. Trueblood Of National road west,
who owns double house occupied by
Leroy Schattel and family and Mrs
Margaret Sharkitt and Mrs Griffith Of
Centerv1lle, who owns a single house
next to the Trueblood property.
The buying of the 100 additional
feet frontage will make a total OF 200
feet frontage, will give room for q
grass plot and lawn in front of the
new building.
The front of the new addition will
be on line with that Of Garfield
school. All the lots have a depth Of
165 feet.
Rough plans OF the new building
drawn up to permit the members Of
the board to gain some idea of the
approximate size of the bond issue
to be made to defray the expense Of
construction, proved that the building
to house the expected 1000 children
would have to be built on the edge of
the sidewalk unless additional space
was bought.
Whether the new building will be
wholly fireproof or semi-fireproof re-
mains to be decided by the board.
The former arrangement involves a
greater cost.

INTO TURMOIL
Canadian Government Com
mandeers Wheat in Eleva-
tors and Action Forces Up
. Prices Here.

CHICAGO, Nov 29.-Opening wheat
prices here wers 25i-eents higher thar
Saturdays close, on account OF the
action Of the Canadian government In
communicating all the wheat in ele-
vators between Fort Williams on Lake
Superior. and the Atlantic coast.
The sharp advance in wheat prices
caused a bulge in corn of y cents and
an advance of u to y cents in oats.
Pandemonium reigned in the wheat
pit as soon as the opening gong was
sounded. Traders wildly shouted their
bids and first trades were made at
a wide range Of prices. The pit was
in the worst sort of turmoil. Bids on
wheat for December delivery ranged
from $105 to $1.06 at the outset IN
a few seconds the price broke to
$1.O4M and then as quickly rallied
to $1.O5.
Wheat for May delivery which had
closed on Saturday at $1.06 sold at
the opening today at $1.0Sh down to
s1.O7.
The wide range of prices showed
that the traders were bidding blindly.
No one knew what effect the action Of
the Canadian government was going
to have. The whole pit was "up in
the air
Fifteen minutes after the opening,
prices for December wheat were close
to $1.O5A and for May $1.073s. The
early buying was mostly by dealers
who had been caught short. Many
local dealers, who believed the action
of the Canadian government was a
bearish factor, sold freely at the ad-
vance prices.

MEREDITH JUMPS IN RING
TO run AGAINST SHERIFF

ment was made by Steen he had not
solicited one man to support his can
didacy.
There are nine entries in the con.
test for the G. o. p. nomination for
sheriff and this fight promises to be
one Of the most spectacular and bit
terly contested witnessed in Wayne
county in many years.
Friends of Oscar Mashmeyer, who
has served as deputy under two sher-
iffs, Steen and Meredith, were today
denying the assertion credited to
Sheriff Steen, that Mashmeyer had
agreed with him not to seek the NOM
ination next year, when he was ap-
pointed deputy sheriff. They say that
there was absolutely no understand
ing between the two men, and that
Mashmeyer in entering this contest is
violating no pledge. They declared
that Steen was prompted to appoint
Mashmeyer as his deputy with the
hope that in so doing he would elimi-
nate him as a competitor when Steen
entered the race for third term.
