can have his way. He has written to
the Minister of the Interior demanding
that all such properties be taken over
by the government and equipped at

lightful winter climate of the riviera.
it is pointed out, would be q most i'm
portant factor in the convalescence OF
the wounded. AS a goodly portion of
the hotel industry on the riviera is iii
estimated that the seizure of the hotels
alone would afford all of the hospitals
accommodations that could possibly be
needed.
France has just begun its first step
towards the rebuilding on the most
modern lines of the hundreds OF
French towns and villages destroyed Ill
the present war. AS many of these
were centuries old, even their historic
interest and Importance could not al
ways offset the disadvantage of un-
sanitary location and construction re-
sulting from the more or less prlma-
tive times in which they were built.
A commission composed of M. Brissac,
director of public hygiene, Drs. Juion,
Rensult, Pottevin, and Liable, technlcal
sanitary experts; NJ Martel the famous
geologist and NJ Pelissier, one of the
greatest modern authorities on agrl-'
cultural improvement has just been ap--
pointed to inspect the provinces IN

of preparing sites and plans for the
of the towns and VII

elements in the rebuilding of the
towns will be appointed later as the
work is carried on step by step.

TSDAY'S OLDEST STORY

KNIGHTS FERRY, ORE, April
Blacksmith Sam Baugh has had
little Wall street experience, but
nevertheless has learned to eschew
the bulls and bears. He went to
Postmaster Collins corral to look
at the new Collins bull, forgetting
to doff his red shirt. When the
bull charged at his shirt, Baugh
tucked into cave on the river bank
only to scramble out again. The
bull charged again, and he dived
back into the grotto, and then back
and forth on several round trips.
"Stay in" yelled Collins, from a
tree.
Wont; there's bear inside"
Finally watching his chance,
Baugh grabbed the bull by the tail
and threw him. Later, the men in
vaded the cave with guns and got
a mother bear and two cubs.

mittee Recommendation for Cut in Salary

That the resignation Of DR.. M. A.

Idaho, has been in the hands Of the
state board Of education since the mid

man j. R0ssi Of Wallace, secretary of
the state board, but the matter had laid
dormant until the recent meeting Of
the university executive committee
here. At that time both Evan Evans
of Grangeyille and Mr.. ROssi declined
to act on the resignation or to recon-
mend it's acceptance to the state board
when it meets at Boise Wednesday,.
CONSIDERING OTHER POSTS
Rumors have been current here late
ly to the effect that DR.. Brannon is con-
sidefing proposals from the Washing
ton State College at Pullman and from
Whitman College at Walla Walla. Dr..
Brannon is known to have been in
censed with the action of the joint con-
ference committee of the legislature
which addressed a letter to the state
board at the time the educational
budget was being considered, in which
- \
of the commissioner of education and
the president of the university be re-
duced from $4,000 annually to not to
exceed $5000 Dr. Brannon had been
engaged by the board at a salary Of
$4,000 for three-year term and in his
letter of resignation he states that he
wishes the board to be unhampered in
their action with relation to the cut.
Board Meeting Wednesday
The state board of education will
meet at Boise next Wednesday and It
is expected the session will be warm
one owing to the fact that matters will
arise affecting the entire educational
system of the state. 1t is forecasted
that the resignation of DR.. Brannon
will not be accepted. The governor is
yet to make one appointment to succeed
D. L. Evans of Malad, and whether he
will reappoint Mr.. Evans or another
has not been disclosed.
BrannOn Gone to Boise
DR.. Bfannon left for Boise yester-
day, the heads of all state institutions
having been called to meet with the
board during it's session. Over the long
distance telephone today, Herman ].
Rossi, declared that it was not the
desire of the executive committee Of
the board in charge Of university af-
fairs, that Dr. Brannon resign and he
had been requested to withdraw his
resignation. At the executive meeting
here DIR. Brannon insisted that the
other board members be advised of his
action

Willard, the Kansas cowboy, brought
back to the white race this afternoon.
the worlds heavyweight pugiIistic
championship. Thirty-eight year old
Jack johnson went down before one
of the cowboys lawmakers in the 26tll
round. Up to that time Willard had
bested the negro in IL rounds. john
son had the best of the fight in only
three rounds. while the hOnOrs were
even in II rounds.
White Hero Was Born
In the twenty-siXth round Willard
rushed from his corner with the feroc-
ity of tiger. He landed a stiff right
to the body. Johnson tried to counter
but fell short and they went into g
clinch. Johnson hung on SO determin-
edly that Referee Welsh had to force
him to break. In fact from the be-
ginning of the round Johnson showed
an inclination to avoid punishment.
Then Willard nearly dropped the negro
with terrible left to the jaw. The
negro turned ashen and his head
dropped pathetically. He was nearly
gone. Willard was right On top OF
him.
The Haymaker Smash
Finally Willard with one supreme
effort landed q smash that knocked the
champion cold. A hush fell over the
arena. In a few seconds the truth
dawned on the spectators and mighty
cheer rent the air. Johnson weighted
in at 225 and Willard at 29S. Willard
chose the southwest corner with the
sun to his back Johnson took the op-
posite corner without argument. Rel
cree Welsh ordered the hostilities to
begin. Willard was given an ovation.
The start of the bout was delayed quite
awhile due to the failure of the prin-
cipals to appear.

Having taken the oath of office as gov

for the purpose of passing such laws
as they deemed wise and necessary

either having been signed or vetoed,
desire to give to the people of the
work performed by the Thirteenth ses-
sion of the legislature as we'll as the
work done by the governor of the
state, with a view of laying before
them the actual conditions that they
may be able to judge whether their
servants have acted in accordance with
their demands and with the pledges OF
the platforms upon which both parties
elected their candidates. Whether the
legislation approved is wise, the fu-
ture alone can determine; whether the
pledges of both parties for economy
and the abolition of useless offices,
boards and commissions have been
lived up to can now be judged with
a certainty.
Was No Consolidation
The legislature failed to consolidate
a single office in the state govern
ment, completely disregarding the rec
of the governor as con
tanned in his message and violating
their party platform pledges, The
abolition of useless offices, boards, and
resulted in the abolition
Of the tax commission, which operated
at an expense of 100000 for the bien-
mum. This is the only reduction OF
an unnecessary office that the legisla-
ture saw fit to make.
Farm Market Bureau
In the place of this commission
there was created new department,
to be known as the farm market dl-
rector, which is to be maintained at a
cost of $4,000 less for the biennial
period than was the cost of the tax
commission, making the entire sa-
wing in the abolition of all the various
