FAIR and STOCK SHOW
BETTER THAN EVER
Big Crowds Come From All Parts Of
Northern Idaho and Marvel at Our
Live Stock and Other Exhibits.

The Nezperce Fair and Live Stock
Show for 1915 is thing of the past
but unlike many other things of the
the past, we delight to recall those
two days of extraordinary fine
wealher-the town filed with thrifty,
happy and healthy people, and their
children enjoying themselves riding
on the merry go-round and taking
survey of the dozen and one other
pleasantries that had been made
possible by the committees, or was
furnished at So much per by the con-
cessionis!s.
AS stated before, the weather was
fine genuine pic ic wealth II. The
parade took place the first forenoon
at about / ! o'clock and was indeed
a spectacle upon which the average
eye enjoyed feasting.
First came the Kamiah band,
dressed in their Indian garb; then
an automobile carrying Governor
Alexander and Hon. P w. Mitchell
then other automobiles then horses,
cattle, and number of floats, some
of which we're filled with beautiful
f5wers and young ladies'. There
was also float entered by the Nez-
perce contingency, attending the
University of Idaho, located at Mos
COW, prepared by the Booth boys and
hers. which was novel and very
appropriate.
After the parade couple Of tkous-
and people ASSEMBLED in the streets
just in front of the Union State Bank
and listened for an hour to a fine
business talk by the Governor, and
thereafter everybody scampared
away somewhere for dinner. Luck
lily, there were booths and other eat
ing places galore, and the delay that
is usually encountered at SO large a
celebration, was eliminated The ]
Nezperce hotel with its 140 capacity
was crowded to the limit all the time
as were all other home institutions.
After the dinner hour several hun q
dred lovers of the great American
g. me-base ball, went to the ball I
grounds and Witnessed the home
team administer drubbing to the
Reubens team. The game was 3
good one, and it was nobody's game
Until the end The score at the end
of the nine innings was II to S. The
day another game between
he Kamiah team and the home ag-
drew big crowd also, but F
he score was so one-sided after the
IS! three or tour lnaings, that most =
# the interest was lost. The out
me was-17 for Kamiah, and for =

The street sports were Witnessed A
y large crowds and everyone

.PENRO5E TO ASK
DUTY ON IMPORTS

Philadelphia, Aug 8. United States
Senator Boies Penrose, In speech at
dinner here last night, announced
that he would introduce at the next
session of congress a tariff bill that will
contain reductions of 15 to 20 per cent
on many of the duties in the Payne
Aldrich bill. The senator said:
For myself, intend to introduce at
the opening of the next congress tar
iff bill protective in it's nature, con-
tanning a horizontal run Of 10 or 15 per
cent on many Of the duties contained in
the Payne bill, but reinforcing some Of
the scheduled, like the chemical sched-
ule, to the extent that may be neces-
sary to secure these industries in our
country.
"This bill will protect us from the
collapse which will occur on the close
of the war in Europe and will furnish
us money to prepare for the national
defense, should any nation of Europe
in arms desire to invade or assault US"

WAR NUM- T|0Ns

Petrograd, Aug. 6.-Prince Shak-
novskowy, the Russian minister of
trade and commerce, today presented
q report which was approved by the
council of ministers suggesting the in
tensive utilization of such refugees as
are skilled laborers in the production

ed in the important centers east of the
evacuated zones, to distribute hands
where they are most needed.

spirited citizens are expected to assist
in the distribution Of the workmen
and to care for the women and chill
dren.
A large plot of ground near Moscow
has been assigned as sites for muni
ton factories. A military and indus

nicipal league will share with the gov
ernment the expenses of rebuilding
aud reopening the factories.

RESIGNATION OF
WARDEN ACCEPTED.
HEAD OF JOLIET PRISON QUITS
RATHER THAN LIVE IN
PENlTENTiARY WALLS.

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. s. Governor
Dunno accepted the telegraphed resig-
nation of Warden Edmund Allen Of the
Joliet penitentiary Immediately upon
reading it today. Tim he directed his
secretary, William Sullivan, to tele-
graph to deputy warden, Lawrence Ry-
an, civil service appointee, to assume
charge of the prison until Aliens sue
cessor was selected.
There is not thing back Of this
but the law" said the governor. the
law provides that the warden must
live inside the prison walls. That is
the proper place for a warden"
"Will the honor system continue?"
repeated the governor "The honor
system was instituted by me- he de-
clared, with rising infection. "Why
should it go? When appointed War
den Allen sent him to Tom lyman,
warden at the Canyon City peniten-
tiary in Colorado told him to find
out all about the honor system there;
how they work the men on the roads
without guards; everything. Then l
told him when he understood it to
come back and that was the system
wanted in Illinois. That's my honor
system at Joliet, not Warden Allen s."
The governor said he was not prepar-
ed to make any announcement con.
corning a successor to Warden Allen.

FRENCH GENERAL
IN EAST RECALLED
SEVERE WOUNDS SUSTAINED BY
COMMANDER RENDER HIM
UNFIT FOR SERVICE.

Paris, Aug. 6-The French oficial
statement today says:
"At the Dardanelles, since the be.
ginning of August, there has been no
striking development to report, activ.
ity being confined to intermittent artil-
lery duels and much movement on the
part Of aviators.
"The government has decided to re-
place General H. J. e. Gouraud, com.
mander of the French expeditionary
force at the Dardanelles, by General
Sarrail, who has been named com
mander in chief of the army Of the
orient"
General <Gouraud was appointed
commander of the French forces at the
Dardanelles in May of this year. A
dispatch from Paris on July said he
had been wounded in the fighting on
the Gallipoli peninsula, and that it had
been found necessary to amputate one
OF his arms. He was described as
suffering also from fractures Of the
right thigh and the left leg.
The report continues:
"ln the Artois district there were
during almost all last night, series
of engagements with hand grenades
around Souchez. In front of Neuville
Saint Vasst, a German attack was
easily and quickly checked
'In the Argonne, the fighting with
bombs and other explosives, supported
by artillery actions, took on greater in
tensity during the night, particularly
in the neighborhood of hill No. 213. In
the region of Fontaine-a Charmes
and in the direction of Saint Hubert,
to the west of hill No. 213, the Cor
mans endeavored to move out from
their trenches but they were at once
checked by our fire.
"On the heights of the Meuse, at
Bois Haut, the enemy delivered two
attacks, each of which was without
success. Our assailants were driven
back with hand grenades and by the
fire of our infantry.
"In Lorraine the Germans during
the night bombarded the village Of
Embermenil, as well as our positions
around Reiller. Two German aviators
have thrown down ten bombs on the
village of Fraize in the valley of the
river Meurthe, killing two women and
one soldier.
"In the Vosges, the night passed

NEW YORK PLANS
DETENTION HOME

New York, Aug. 6.-Plans which
have been filed with the building de-
partment for the new detention home
and court for women show that the
new structure will be Of sixteen
stories, combining court, Jail and
house of detention and will cost $685.
900. 1t will occupy the site of the old
Tenderloin police station in West
Thirtieth street.
All the cells for prisoners will be
above the ground floor and will be
large, light and airy. The court rooms
will occupy the second and third
floors. A kitchen, two spacious dining

suit, of the strategic situation as
whole. In the region of Ostrolenka and
the mouth of the Skwa the enemy
threatened to cut our rear communica-
tions and deprive us of the opportunity
of regrouping, while by their offensive
in the Lomza district, which is begin
ming to overshadow even the Vistula
front in strategic importance, the Ger
mans are attempting to effect deep
development of our forces on the
Vistula river Should this offensive be
further developed it possibly will be
directed against Bialystok and Brest-
Litovsk from the north. It is quite
likely Field Marshal Won Mackensen
will transfer his troops from the Chelm
district to cooperate in this attempt
Another factor was the auxiliary
operations on both sides over the

ILLINOIS AT R
BETTER BABIES
CONTEST FOR YOUNGSTERS
WILL BE HELD TO ENCOURAGE
CHILD DEVELOPMENT.

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. g. Conserva-
ton of child life and health in ILL
nols is to be encouraged this year by q
better babies contest to be held at
the Illinois state fair. The contest Is
planned to be the chief feature Of q
new educational department Of the
fair-a child welfare department, it
was announced today.
Prizes worth having are to be given
the winning babies, which will be
selected by corps Of ten skiliful baby
specialists. Children entered in the
contest will be judged upon physical
and mental development chiefly;
mere beauty does not count.
II have wondered for good many
years why contest Of this sort
shouldn't be considered as important
an adjunct Of the state fair as de-
partment for the selection Of prize
pigs and horses said B. NJ Davidson,
secretary of the state board of agri-
culture. $50 far as am concerned it
is more important. Without better
babies we haven't got much of a chance
to get better horses or corn or better
anything else.
Properly carried out this contest
should insure better race, because
it will teach parents how to improve
the physical condition of children al
ready born and to protect those yet
unborn"
Winning babies will be selected
from the country and city candidates
In the different divisions the city and
rural babies will be carefully divided
as though they represented quite dit.
ferant species.

Broken for Good

Amsterdam, Aug. 6. "a lasting
Russian offensive is no longer to
be expected in the near future"

view Of the situation in Poland.
"Henceforth as soon as our attack
begins the Russian defense must
crumbIe because 1t is no longer.

machine guns. We doubt the pos
sibiIity Of reorganizing the Russian
army during the present war"
