OROFINO HIGH DEFEATS
FAST WEIPPE TEAM

One Of the most interesting basket
ball games of the season was pulled
of Saturday evening in Odd Fellows 5
hall when the locals defeated the fast
Weippe team in the close score of 18
to 10. The fur started from the first
whistle, and the contest was exciting
at every stage of the game. Each
team did clever teamwork and the
passing was fast and accurate. The
locals worked together, and ended the
initial half with the score II to in
their favor The second half found
Weippe on the fight, and determined
to win. And the final score shows
how near they came to succeeding. 1t
was fine display of grit, an example
of sportsmaushtp that is commendable.

success in life if they will apply the
same determination to business when
they reach manSood and enter their

In the second half the Weippe for
Wafus made every effort 10 turn the
game in their favor, and the guards
worked to hold orofno in the lead
1t was a tgsset every inch of the
game, and ar exhibition worth seeing.

Idaho Sanitarium Can't
Stand More Economy

1t is reported on good authority
that Governor elect Alexander pro-
poses to trim the Orofno asylum to a
frazzle; that he has served notice that
the institution must be run for less
money, and that he proposes to put in
manager who can do it. The peo-
pie Of Idaho are in favor of strict
economy in all public institutions,
but not at the expense of efficiency,
particularly in institutions for the
unfortunate. 1t may be possible to
run the Orofino institution for less
money and still keep it up to the
present state of efficiency, but we
doubt it.
AS a matter of fact DIR. Givens and
the board of directors have leaned too
far in the direction of economy for
the goood of the patients, and the
people of Idaho, if the truth is under
stood, will not stand for one moment
any effort at further retrenchment.
DR.. Givens has reduced the cost per
patient to a cents per meal for food.
That is the cost of raw material, and
needs better help than is possible un-
less present salaries are increased.
Think Of it! The state is paying
in the Orofino asylum from $50 to $6O
and board, with only one man at the
latter figure. Now compare this
wage scale with that for similar work
in private business, and see where the
state is getting off. The result is
that there is a continual shifting Of
help; it is practically transient. while
the sanitarium should be in the hands
of the most competent, trained help,

LATAH SENATOR
HAS GOOD IDEAS

State Senator elect j. j. Day of
Latah county spent Sunday night in
Orofino visiting the State Sanitarium.
He desired to have first hand informa-
tion about this institution, and took
time to make a careful inspection of
the buildings. He predicts short
session. saying he believes the people
needed few if any new laws, and that
the time of the Legislature should be
spent in revising and fixing up few
of the laws we have. He advocates
change in our system of making
laws. He would have the legis lature
meet and give few days to the intro
ducing of new bills. Then adjourn to
re-convene in six months to act on
them. This would give time for

IDAHO BOY HOLDS
POTATO RECORD

A Potatoe Club boy of jefferson
county, Idaho, raised 100 bushels of
potatoes on his s-acre plot, or the
equivalent to 800 bushels per acre.
This is worlds record for potato
growing, and Geo. Mason, Is wears
old, may justly claim the title of the
Young Potato Chief of the State of
Idaho. More than 5000 boys and
girls were engaged in the club work
last year. Courses of study included
potato and corn culture, cooking, sew
irg and canning, poultry and pig
clubs. This year other valuable and
practical courses will be added. The
club work of Idaho during the past
three years has been very successfully
conducted under the direction of the
State Superintendent of Public In

study and discussion of proposed laws,
and would enable the people to ac-
quaint themselves with proposed legis-
latipn. And we are inclined to agree
with Mr.. Day. Under existing con-
ditipns it is physically impossible for
the members of the Legislature to ac-
quaint themselves with even a small
proportion of the bills introduced, and
no member can vote intelligently
when he cannot have an opportunity
to r cad and study proposed bills. AS
it is the majority of the members of
the Legislature are compelled to vote
without knowing what they are voting
for. The result is rotten legislation
and the members are not entirely to
blame if they occasionally get their
wires crossed and vote wrong.
