Village Election

Orofino is to have a village cleo
tion Tuesday, April q, and two tic
kets are now in the field. The Non
Partisan Ticket offers the following
A. E. Holmberg, E. w. Horswill,
Fred D. Hammond. Frank A. Jones,
Samson Snyder. The second ticket
filed with the village clerk has Frank
Zelenka, c. G. Curtis, and William
Noble. Originally this ticket had
Mr.. Holmberg and w. B. Kinne, both
originally on the Non-Partisan ticket,
and since the law will not permit a
candidate to run on more than one
ticket, Mr.. Kline withdrew from both
tickets and Mr.. Holmberg elected to
run on the first ticket, leaving the
Citizens ticket with only three candi-
dates.
The Nom Partisan ticket is the out
come of an effort to get the citizens
together, it is reported, and was the
result of conference between leading
republicans and democrats who hoped
to eliminate politics and put up q
clean, representative ticket. The
second ticket was named later, but
the Republican has no information
ON the subj and since the gentle
men are prominent take it for granted
that it was put up because the aver
age American citizen likes to exercise
his rights, and it is always alright tt
have variety when the voters walk uE
to the polls to enjoy the privilege oi
being American citizens. The new
trustees will elect all village officers
including the clerk and marshal, ant
this is perhaps one reason for tn,
second ticket. The Clearwater Re
publican can see no reason for an,
bitterness over the contest. 1t is tt
be hoped none will develop, w

open an up-to-date auto hospital,
something badly needed in Orofno,
and the Republican predicts a flourish
ing business from the start. There is
now a goodly number of cars in Oro-
fino, and more coming, with no place
to store, or no regular repair shop,
something that has become a necessity
at this day of horseless carriages.

HOar Criminal Libel Case Vim
dicateS Clearwater Republican

told Mr.. Tannahill that he would new
er hear another of these libel cases
against Orcutt; that it was imposing
on the taxpayers, and that the court
would dismiss the criminal cases
against Orcutt whenever the county
attorney made such motion.
The Hoar case was the strongest
case of the three libel actions, al
though the cost of prosecuting either
of the other cases will be greatly in
excess of that in the Hoar case. This
is true from the fact that either of the
other cases involve a lot of matters,
while the Hear case related only to
depositing and handling county funds.
There is still pending against P.
L. Orcutt two civil damage suits,
each for $25, 900, in which the Blakes
are the plaintiffs, but the county at
torney has nothing to do with these,
both being civil damage cases in which
the Blakes, if they lose, must pay the
costs.
Judge Steele, when told that Orcutt
was under 81, 900 bonds; that with the
disposal of the Hoar case Orcutt was
still under 81, 900 bonds, said he did
not know this, ard ordered the clerk
of the court to release all bondsmen,
and that tie defendant, Orcutt,
should go on his own recognizance.
Attorneys for Orcutt urged the state
to either at once prosecute or dismiss
the criminal cases against Orcutt,
these remaining cases having been
started last Fourth of July, having
been pending now almost a year.

May Examinations. Special

The new cretification law provides
for examinations in July and Novem-
ber. In order, however, to pre-
vent serious inconvenience to appli-
cants for State and State Life certifi-
Gates by endorsement, it seems advis-
able to offer the special subjects re-
quired for these certificates in May.
Hence, examinations may be taken
on May 20, 1915, in
l. Idaho Civil Government, in
cluding School law.

The Republican has no desire to
discuss the recent libel suit, but SO
many inquiries are coming in as to
the status of the numerous cases
against the editor of the Clearwater
Republican that we will briefly refer
to the matter.
The case decided last week was that
in which Blair Hoar charged us with
criminal libel. The evidence sus-
tanned every charge made by the Clear
water Republican. The Clearwater
Republican was sustained and vindi-
Gated in every particular. The Re-
publican, when the case was started,
told the people that the case was a
farce; that there was no ground for
criminal action, and it has always
seemed an injustice to the taxpayers
of the county to force upon them a
groundless action that has cost the
people in the neighborhood of $500.
The case was started during the
term of County Attorney Holsclaw,
but j. l.. Fitzgerald, for some reason,
appeared and represented the state,
over the protest of the writer, who
inquired at the time why the county
attorney himself did not appear.
At the conclusion of the trial, a
jury, out but few minutes, brought
in unanimous verdict of acquittal.
County Attorney Smith told Judge
Steele that he felt, in the interest of
the taxpayers, the cases should be dis
missed, but did not feel like being
arbitrary in view of the position TAX
en- by Mr.. Tannahill. Judge Steele

Mrs. Brigham was the last witness

Mrs. Bigham was the last witness
called. Her testimony related to the
happenings at the Bigham home i'm
mediately preceding the time when
the money was missed. The defendant,
she said, complained that someone had
taken money from his pocket book.
She said that Walter Bigham was at
that time away from home and that
some money which he had left in his
pockets was also missed On his re-
turn home Walter went to the safe
and found that the money which he
had left there had disappeared.
At the close of Mrs. Bigham's testi-
mony Attorney A. l.. Morgan for the
defense moved for dismissal of the
action on the ground that the evidence
by the state was not suf-
fcient to support the charge against
the defendant. The motion was over
ruled and the defendant was bound
over to the district court on $500
bonds.

DECISION AGAINST SOUTHERN
PACIFIC

BY the United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-The South
ern Pacific railroad must dispose of
it's holdings in the Pacific Mail Steam
ship company, unless the operation of
vessels of the steamship company
through the Panama canal is stopped
within sixty days. This was the de-
cision today Of the interstate COM
merce commission. The commission
holds that the operation of vessels
through it's Pacific holdings in that
line is illegal under the law. Under
the canal act steam-carrier cannot
lawfully hold stock in steamship line
operating through the canal, which
may be a possible competitor of the
steam carrier The commission ruled
that there were potential possibilities
Of competition between the Pacific
Mail and the Southern Pacific, par
ticularly from San Francisco.
