GOSSIP OF A STREET.
A Real shock.

There was a nervous market In Rub
her all day. After a brisk squirt at the
opening, when the price touched 53%
on hurried covering OF shorts, the stock
nuctuated between 81 and so. Stock
was supplied rather freely when timid
shorts bid the price up and the main
short interest apparently awaited the
dividend announcement confidently. In
other words. there vas nothing to show
that the main speculative position In the
stock was greatly changed. The bor-
rowing demand at the close last night
was etill large, the rate being | per
cent, unchanged from the day before.
A great many persons waited down
until $3.50 for the news and there
was a good deal of genuine surprise at
the result. For one thing. the level at
which the stock had been selling dur
ing the past few days scarcely prepared
the financial district for n passing Of
the dividend. The tape looked like a
reduction to 4 per cent. or perhaps 2
per cent, and the tape Is all that the
street had TO 70 on. After the news
came out the stock was offered at 49t,
in New street. Calls on the stock at
30 were also offered freely.

The news of the passing OF the Rub

the other hand IL is difficult to imagine
any buying for the long account until
the market has adjusted itself TO the
new conditions. Rubber stock has never

Annual Meeting
In Lewiston
Interesting and Instructive
Program for Members of
School Board

The school trustees of Nez Perez
county will convene in Lewiston
next Monday afternoon and the
sessions will not be concluded until
Tuesday noon. This is the regular
annual meeting of the trustees and
and letters have been sent out by
President w. Berkstresser, of Look
out, asking that each district be
represented by one or more men,
bers of the board of directors. Un-
der the state law, each district is
required to pay the board attending
the annual meeting.
The reports received at the Office
of County School Superintendent
Miss Redfield indicate the meeting
will be largely attended. There are
70 school districts in the county and
and there are ZIG trustees. The
progrom arranged is Of unusual
interest and value because the sub
ject to be handled deal especially
with the questions which confront
the members of the school boards
each year.

Livestock Show
Most Successful Exhibition
Ever Pulled Off

The Northwest Livestock show
that was held in Lewiston last week
was one of the best shows ever pull
ed off in the west. The stock shown
were of the highest type of animals
and when the sale day came the
prices paid were higher than ever
before. There is no use talking the
stock that was shown are far SUPER
ior to anything on the market today.
The management did we'll and every
thing moved off nicely. Only one
thing that is to be objected to. is
the fact that the management did
not take their rooming houses into
bay and COMPEL them to charge
regular rates for rooms. In other
cities the Fair committees always
look after this, but in Lewiston the
hotel people raise the rates of their
cheap rooms to the highest possible
prices, then when a fellow wants a
room they shut their eyes and turn
their back to get the key, and while
their back is to tle customer, they
yell out the hold-up-price, which
you pay or sleep in the street.

At 1t gain
Republican Convention Held
In Lewiston Last Week

A delegation of prominent Re-
publicans met in Lewiston last Fri
day to investigate the conditions of
the political situation Of the north
ern part of the state. The ones
present were earnest about the mat
ters that came I'D and the trend of
the meeting showed that the Re-
publicans of the northern part of
the state had to get together and
stand pat if they expected to ac-
complish any motives in the coming
campaign. The Northern part of
the state has heretofore been split
ting up and allowing the south to
step in and take off everything they
wanted. The conditions are the
same at this time if they don't come
in close communion and stand
shoulder to shoulder. The Norman
element of the south has started to
get in their work and it is time for
the other people of the state was
waking up to the fact that if they
don't want the kind of legislation
the south will want they will have
to fight it. Get together you
Republicans and show your hand.

Protecting the
Meat Markets
Heavy Fine Imposed On
Meat Peddlers With
out License

The slaughtering and selling of
meat without a license is becoming
common practise in all sections of
Idaho, but it must discontinue for j. .
K. White, state pure food commits
sioner, in statement issued serves
notice on those engaged in the meat
business unlawfully that he will in
force the law to the letter.
The notice of the commissioner
is as follows:
Section 27, chapter 1874, session
laws 9911, as amended in 1918,
reads as follows:
ANY person or corporation who
shall sell or offer for sale or expose
for sale at public or private sale,
any meat or food products which
have not been prepared for human
consumption in the places mention
ed in the preceding section. or who
shall operate said places without
first obtaining from the said inspec-
tor the certificate or permit ment-
iuned in said section shall be guilty
of a misdemeanor, and shall be pun
ished as provided in the following
section: Provided that nothing in
this act shall be construed to pro-
hibit any farmer from slaughtering
any animal raised by him and dis
posing of the meat of such animal;
Provided, that said meat was pre-
pared in a sanitary and wholesome
manner and under proper sanitary
conditions, not surrounded by or in
proximity to contaminating condi-
tions of any kind, and protected at
all times up to delivery to the pur-
chaser from dust, dirt, flies and
other contaminations.
" In prosecuting under this Sec
tion, it shall not be necessary to al
lege or prove that the defendant
did not have the certificate or per-
init mentioned in the preceding ST c.
tion at the time the act was alleged
to have been committed, but the
burden shall be on the defendant to
show that he had such certificate or
permit at such time"
ION investigation we find this
law is being violated in all sections
and this notice is to advise those
who are interested that prosecution
will be made in every instance,
where we find violations of this law.
''The penalty provided in this act
is as follows: Any person or per-

1t is matter of fact that not
