The Text of the Message

With profound gratitude to the peo-
pie of the state of Idaho for the honor
conferred on me by my election as gov
ernor, and the deep sense of RESPONSE
bility hereunder assumed, l am here
today to meet you gentlemen, compos-
ing the thirteenth session of the Idaho
branches of the state government, and
the most important one; the one
charged with initiating all the legisla-
ton for the interests of the state.
In greeting you thus l am not here
to advise you of your duties, as they
are properly defined by the constitution
of our state and by the dictates of your
conscience. Neither is it my province
to instruct you what to do.
My presence here is to signify that
the executive department of the state,
which has been entrusted to my hands,
is here to pledge you it's cooperation
for the good of the people of the state
of Idaho; to join with you to accom-
plish all that it may be able to accom-
plish with the least friction and with
as much good for the people as possi-
ble While both branches are separate
and distinct, the unison of purpose and
the joint cooperation of duty between
the legislative and the executive is the
object to be obtained by this joint ses-
sion of ours.
Under article Nv, chapter 8 Of
the constitution of the state of Idaho,
the governor is charged to give the
legislature, at the commencement of
each session, information upon existing
conditions; to recommend such meas
ures as he deems expedient; and to
present to the legislature an estimate
of the amount Of money required to be
raised by taxation for all purposes of
the state This wise provision of the
constitution and my deductions there
from am about to lay before you
While the words spoken are my words,
the meaning of these words may be in {
terpreted as the voice of the people of !
the state of Idaho, conveyed to you by

ish positions, enormous quantities OF
munitions and great numbers of pris-
oners. The Cossacks are said to be
pursuing the fleeing Turks.

BOISE, JAM 5.-Asking for state

ment, to become effective January 1

joint session contents of the much talk
ed of Ramstedt report relative to the
Allen probe, which had not heretofore
been disclosed to the public, were two
surprises sprung by Governor Moses
to the legislature this afternoon.
Alexander asked for and received the
Allen report from Ramstedt yester-
day, but that he would make it part
of his message was unknown until he
presented it, Another surprise which
was not on the program and one
which had not been incorporated in
his original message, was his recon-
mendatiOn for statewide prohibition
by legislative enactment
Governor Alexander had expected to
deliver his message at 10:30 this morn
ing, but it was postponed until 2
o'clock. The house chamber where it
was read before the joint session, was
packed to overfowing. The governors
arrival was marked by an ovation.
The Ramstedt report went into de-
tails concerning the Allen and Cole
man peculations. The report show
ed the Allen shortage to be made up of
the following items charged to re-
spective parties: 0. V. Allen, $751;
344.68; H. F. Allen, his brother, $780,
10000; Attorney General ]. H. Peter
son, $660.00; State Auditor F. L. Hus-
ton, $4,000; ]. j. Long, banker Of
Nampa, $5,5000O
In addition, the report showed that
had been loaned by Allen to sub
ordinate state employees for which he
had I. 0. US against David Wark, Don
Robb, Mckinley and others, including |
Pure Food Commissioner Wallis The |
report showed that both Allen and |
Coleman had deceived the examiner in
their peculations.

high schools appearing on the list A
successor will also have to be elected

its history last Fall. plenty of good
material remains as a nucleus for
next season. Among the 'T" men
who remain are: Captain Miller, Nc
Kay, Phillippelli, Weir. Britsch and
Harris. The line will be strong with
the exception of the ends, where two
new men will have to be developed,

able work last season and who will be
eligible for the team are Mcfarland,

Rowland's Rules For
Running a Winning Team

Clarence Rowland, who first leaped
into fame by being promoted from
the minor leagues to manage the
White Sox, and who has put the Chi
cdgoans in the "pennant- possibilities"
class, gave these as his rules for a sue
cessful baseball manager:
"A player is as important as a
manager. Treat him So"
Never fine a ballplayer; show him
he is wrong"
See that your men are in bed by
11.30 p. M
"Be friend Of the newspaper boys
they can help you"
Pull your boys together-don't
spread them apart"
"Give the kids chance; don't rely
too much on old stars"
Encourage the fighting and ag-
gressive spirit-but don't tolerate
rowdyism."
Managing major and minor
league team is only a difference of
degree, that's ALL" The problems are
the same"
