PAULINE

Being asked to furnish news for the
Press l must say, in the first place
that it will be near to impossible tc
report our news once a week, on ac-
count of our present mail system.
We, no doubt, have about the Door
est mail service in Idaho. Our pre-
cinct, and also Crystal, both of Power
County, are without an adequate mail
service. We have petitioner our post
master general until, l suppose his
eyes have got sore reading them. Also
our governor, and am inclined to be-
lieve our governor has tried to helm
us. But it don't seem to bring about
the desired results. Crystal is seven
miles from Pauline where they re-
ceive their mail, and Arbon six miles
from Pauline. At Pauline we are forty
miles from Malad, where both Crystal
and Pauline are supplied with mail.
1t is about twenty-seven miles from
American Falls to Pauline and about
the same distance to Pocatello. Why
can't we get our mail from American
Falls? We have also petitioned for
this route, but failed. The result is.
we have carried our mail three years
from Arbon to Pauline. And Crystal
has put up with this for five years. We
are all taxpayers and we feel that the
authorities at American Falls should
do all in their power to help us in
this matter.
David A. Daniels died in the hospi-
tai at Pocatello. He was taken to
Pocatello on January 18th and oper-
ated on for appendicitis and died on
January 18th. David A. was we'll
known, being the son of David NJ.
Daniels, the cattle man. He had been
afflicted with diabetes and under a
a Salt Lake doctors care most of the
summer and had recovered, when he
had the attack of appendicitis which
caused his death. The funeral was
held in Malad City, January goth. He
leaves a wife and five children to
mourn his loss.
A wrestling match was pulled off at
Crystal school house January 23rd.
John Davis from Malad and John Fam
min were matched. Fannin got the
first fall or Davis in ten minutes. Next
round both men showed more skill and
art, and worked for two hours and
twenty minutes and neither man could
accomplish the feat of Hopping the
other. Davis made the proposition
that they postpone the match until
February 18th, when they will try It
Over Both of these man ORC uaII
scienced and trained and they are
quite evenly matched so we look for
something extra on February 18th.
Harry Waylett, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Noel Waylett, has been operated on
for appendicitis at Pocatello. We hear
he is getting we'll and will be with us
again soon.

"HANG THE Laws;
1 WANT THE CANAL
Colonel GOethals Gives Some Inside
History on Construction OF Panama
Waterway.

Colonel Cocktails told members OF
the University club of Chicago at a
luncheon Saturday in his honor how
the Panama canal came TO be built
under what he called autocratic rule,
THE original commission was rul-
ing at the time of which | speak
said Colonel Cocktails, land there was
friction In its ranks. MIR. Taft then
secretary of war, came down and
explained the situation to him, He
said: Colonel. | think n mans value
as n public servant is determined by
the number of kicks he can take with
out %squealing.'
mot long afterward l went to
Washington and had a talk with
President Roosevelt. He said to me
Colonel, | think I'll abolish that COM
mission and concentrate all authority
In you. An executive order will do Il.
When mentioned this to Mr.. Taft
he said: Yes. that's the way It ought
to be done, but 1t isn't In accordance
with the law
When ! told Mr.. Roosevelt what
the secretary of war had said the
president said Enthusiastically: 4
don't care a hang for the law. I want
that canal built"
Colonel Goethals was presented with
a gold medal by the Chicago G~eograph-
ic society here Saturday night. It
makes his sixth medal In recognition
of his work on the Panama canal.

CHARGE LEGISLATORS WITH
ExTRAVAGANT JUNKETING
Pickings have been so easy in the
Illinois legislature that at the last ses-
sion the members ran wild and
mulcted the treasury for dollars in
wholesale fashion is the charge
brought by the Legislative Voters
league, which has made a careful in
vestigation of the way the solons
squandered the peoples money.
The league charges padding of
committee expense accounts, especi-
ally the expense accounts OF junket-
ing trips.

mittee, headed by Sen. Latham and
Rep. Hilton, spent $6,106.4S," says

as an example of what it says was
the way of nearly all committees. "Of

Included in the charitable institu-
ton committees expense account of
1926 is on item of $75 for special
train from Chicago to Dunning. Dun
ming is on Irving Park blvd within the
Chicago city limits.
The educational visiting commit
tee spent $720 day.
An attorney fee of 1000 was voted
Chas. E. Woodward. says the league,
for drawing up bill that was never
even seriously considered by the le-
gislature.
There was no system in keeping
any bill expense accounts. Any scrap
of paper with some figures on was
cashed in for expense money.

posite the numeral | on their memoran-
dum-pads. These, as Jane perceived,
were ruled, like her own, into four di-
visions, for copper, brass, German silver,
and steel. Immediately after making his
notation the superintendent ordered one
of the helpers to nail burlap over the first
barrel and to load it on truck.
The girl could see every act distinctly,
though she was too far away to read the
figures on Galland's and Kargowitzs lists.
She jotted down her own memorandum Of
the weight in the column headed "copper"
The procedure was similar with all the
barrels that followed the first on the scales.
In no case did Galland or Kargowitz mark
the figures on the staves. That was done
always by boy. Invariably the weight
was painted, just as the boy called it out
after reading the scale-bar. Jane realized
that every precaution was apparently
being taken to insure an honest check.
ALLAND had won the approval of the
president of the Ajax Electric Com
pany by his "driving" methods. He now
continually reminded his sweating helpers
that Kargowitz's car of junk must be
loaded on the side-track before eleven
o'clock, so that the switch engine could
pick it up for the noon train.
Now that the racket below her was in
cessant Jane ventured occasionally to
move little. She watched the pack
ers vigilantly; and the longer she watch

longed, the forewoman jotted down on
separate slip of paper she found on the
shipping-clerk' desk. She folded her own
list again and tucked it carefully inside
her waist. The new memorandum she
carried in her hand. Then Jane went out
to the yard.
The superintendent stood at one corner
of the factory, leaning against the wall
while he smoked cigar and watched the
ball game from aloof, as comported with
the dignity of his position. The fore
woman walked straight toward him. He
saw her, and Strengthened from his
lounging position, smiling genially.
"Hello, Jane!' he greeted. II thought
you was on the sick list to-day
@Im all right now" she answered short
ly. Il want to see you few minutes.

from the factory whistle ripped asunder
pleasant dream.
The screech of the siren startled Jane
so much that she sat up suddenly and
bumped her head. For half minute she
was dazed. Then she realized where she
was, and lay down again. She had twenty
minutes yet to wait. Some of the stock
keepers were accustomed to eat their
lunch in the store-room. When making
her plans for espionage she had timed the
men carefully, and had satisfied herself
that they would finish the contents Of
their dinner-pails within quarter Of an
hour, SO that they could watch the inter-
department ball game, which was played
every noon in the factory yard. She knew
too that the second floor should bedeserted

silent. From rear window she could see
the workmen in the yard, where the ball
game had started. The coast was clear.
JANE abandoned her stealthy manner
when she started down the flight Of steps.
She sauntered through the machine shop
and out to the packing-room. As she had
anticipated, it was deserted, too. In a
moment she had opened the big record
book and was comparing the shipping
clerks entries with her list. Every weight
the shipping-clerk had entered agreed with
her own notation. All the barrels, too,
were put down. But Jane smiled as her
pencil point descended the four columns
on her memorandum. She paused to
make dots opposite seven figures

The burly superintendent savagely
crunched his teeth He had detected a
pilferer himself only a week before, and
had taken ferocious satisfaction in making
an example Of the boy. Galland sprang
to James side now, and strobe along with
the forewoman toward the back door Of
the factory.
"Who is it?" he whispered.
@You can tell better than can,' she
evaded.
"Do you think it's girl or one Of the
men?'
"A man.

by twenty minutes
past twelve.
At last her watch
indicated that Jane
might venture
forth. She climbed
down noiselessly
from the'shelf. There
was not a sound in
the store-room. She
brushed the dust off
her dress and hands,
then tiptoed to the
back stairs and lis
tened. The machine
shop below was
