Cattle Die From
Forage Poisoning

After more than two months
of worry and the loss of nearly a
thousand dollars worth of fine
beef cattle, August Schroeder,
the big Hereford breeder, has at
last ascertained what caused the
death of his cattle and is no long
er puzzled over the strange IA
talities.
The first loss occurred early in
December when one of Mr..
Schroeder's sons discovered six
head of valuable steers dead in
their pasture on Salmon river,
the animals having died near
each other and all within "a
hours. DR.. Boyce, the local vet
erinarian, was called and made
an examination of the animals
and some of the blood was sent
to the state university at Moscow
for analysis. DR.. Boyce stated
the disease resembled anthrax
and the analysis from the uni
versity showed LESSONS of this
disease.
Later two more animals died,
the last being a fine registered
Hereford heifer which showed
every symptom of having hydro
phobia. This led Mr.. Schroeder
to believe his animals had been
bitten by mad coyotes and he
sent the brain of the heifer to
the university to determine if
this was the case.
The second analysis reached
the seat of the disease, which
has been declared to be a form of
cerebro-spinal meningitis, also
known under the more common
name of blind staggers. The
disease has different symptoms
in different animals and is caused
from the animals eating moldy
forage.
The cattle in question have
been grazing in a pasture which
Mr.. Schroeder saved for his Win
ter range, where the grass was
quite long, and it is believed the
dry summer and fall weather and
the open winter season and light
fall of snow has caused mold to
form under the grass as it lay
near the ground, thereby giving
rise to the disease which has
proven so difficult to determine.
1t is quite probable this disease
has killed many more cattle
whose death was believed to
have resulted from rabies and in
future stockmen can exercise
greater care in warding off losses
from this source.

Fuchs Family Moves to Farm

M. F. Fuchs and family left
the fore part of the week for
Culdesac where they will reside
until Mat can get house erected
on the farm he recently purchas-
ed near Slickpoo. The many
friends of Mr.. Fuchs and family
were sorry to see them leave
Cottonwood but hope they will
find life on the farm more pleas
ant and far less worrisome than
that of catering to a fault-find-
ing public. During his residence
in Cottonwood Mr.. Fuchs proved
himself to be a loyal, progressive
citizen always ready to further
the best interests of the tow
and assist any worthy enterprise
and his place among the loyal
boosters will be hard to fill. Ex-
tremely poor eyesight. however,
caused him to seek a more private
occupation, hence his return 10

lo,th and South Road En-
dorsed by House--More Ex-
travagance at State House
Coming to Light.

Coming to Light.
Boise, Jan. 25.-The constitu-
Gonal convention resolution is
doomed to defeat. This was de-
yeloped in the senate, where the
RESOLUTION originated, at this
Mornings session. That body,
ia committee of the whole, re-
fhsed to adopt a motion recon-
mending it's passage.
The north and south railroad
resolution m 1t the unanimous er -
dprsement of the lower house.
Aside from short address
strongly indorsing it by Senator
Hart, majority leader, and an ex-
planation that the bill will origi-
nate in the house making an ap-
propriation for the commission
10 carry on it's work, the resolu-
ion was not discussed.
Tomorrow MCGOWAN will offer
bill providing For an appropria-
ion of $1500~ to defray the ex-
penses of such a commission.
Under the terms of the resolu-
ZION Governor Alexander is en-
powered to appoint commission
Of three members to make an in
Vestigation of the feasibility of
the construction or a railroad
from the present terminal of the
Pacific & Idaho Northern to a
nol tn Idaho point, probably Lew
iston, and to confer with railroad
interests and ascertain whether
or not they would take up such a
matter or are themselves inter-
ested.
Two important administration
measures were introduced in the
house today by Anderson of Can
Won, and Clark, of Custer. the
minority leaders. Bills by Ander-
son would reduce the salaries of
all the state officials that can be
reached by legislative enactment,
rom governor to state chemist.
Ellis by Clark would consolidate
the Office of state insurance COM
missioner with that of state bank
commissioner, and reduce the
Term of Office of the latter official
from four to two years.
The chief executives salary is
TO be reduced from $4,000 to $4,-
DOO; secretary of state from $4,000
to $25O0; encouragement from
$4,000 to $4,000; state treasurer
from $4,000 to $4,000; the superin-
tendent of public instruction from
$240O to $500; state mine in
spector from $2400 to 1900; state
Engineer from $4,000 to $24O0,
though his expense allowance of
$1,000 is untouched; state cht mist
from $4,000 to $500; salary of
each of the three members of the
state public utilities commission
from $4,000 to $4,000.
Recommending thorough in
vestigation of the item of coal in
face of the somewhat startling
TACT that there was expended out
OF the public building mainte-
nance fund $5,983.82 more for
fuel in 1918 than there was in
1914 to heat the capitol building
and annex, or 2077 tons burned
in 1913 as against 997 tons in
1914, with little variation in the
price per ton during both years,
and pointing out that although
the last legislature appropriated
$50, 900 for capitol building main
tenance that sum was exhausted
fearly last summer and a deficien-
cy of $13, 1874. 95 was created, W.
d. Gleason, manager of the Audit
Company of Illinois, engaged in
auditing the books and funds of
the state, transmitted his second
report to Governor Alexander,

this time on the expenditures
from the public building mainte-
nance fund. The governor trans
mltted the report with a short
message to the legislature this
morning.
Mr.. Gleason in his report says:
The public building maintenance
fund is only a small item COM
pared with many of the 1877 funds
under scrutiny and if in admins
tering this fund the state has
lost $4,000 it is high time steps
should be taken to stop the leak.
The perfunctory duties of the
board of examiners defeats it's
purpose, the authority being
given after the harm is done.
The whole system is simply alb
surd, and officials and employees
sh )uld be pitied rather than CEN
sured.
The accounting methods of
the state need immediate revi-
sion, the greater part of which
can be accomplished without leg
islative enactment, and in view
of the enormous losses which are
being suffered currently we
think immediate action in this
direction quite as important as in
vestigating past performances"

TRY TO FORCE ANOTHER RUSH
ON MEXICAN SOIL

ON MEXICAN SOIL
Washington, March 8. = Extreme
pressure to force American armed in
tervention in Mexico has been re-
newed on the Wilson administration.
The pressure comes from three
sources. Leading are the European
diplomats in Mexico City who backed
Gen. Huerta and are naturally appre-
hensive for their safety. Then comes
the financial interests of the United
States, Great Britain and Germany,
whose investments are not returning
anything because Of the troubled con-
ditions in the country. The third class
comprises the advocates of dividing
Mexico into two states and those who
resent the abuse that has been
heaped on the priests and nuns of the
Mexican church by both sides.
To all who have brought the ques-
ton to their attention, President VIII
son and Secretary Bryan have de-
clared that the president was stand
ing firm on his utterances at Indian
.apolis, that the United States has no
right to intervene. Oonly one thing
will change this policy and that will
be a general massacre Of Americans
and other foreigners.
