GIFT TO THE STATE
HISTORICAL EXHIBIT

The state historical exhibit has been
enriched recently by a gift from the
Society islands, that of piece of the
ridge pole in the kings house on the
island of Tubuai. The pole is made
from an intensely hard wood called by
the natives iron wood. 1t is carved
with a conventional design of rosettes
entirely over the surface, the carving
being done with stone axes and shells.
When these islands were taken by the
French this pole was used by the
French as a flag pole and the marks
where the lower two feet set in the
ground are distinct.
The relic is a gift OF Mrs. w. A.
Connolly of Emmett. to whom II was
presented by an uncle, who was sea
farng man. Mrs. Connolly in remoN-

CONTAGIOUS ABORTION
COSTS STATE $25o,0oo

A recent report of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture estimates that
contagious abortion costs the cattle
industry of the United Stetes 100000,
900 a year. 1t is probably that on this
basis the dairymen of Colorado are
losing approximately s25O,OO0 an
nually from this disease. While much
investigation work has been done,
it can hardly be said that even now
there is any adequate means of con-
troll of this serious malady.
The Colorado Experiment Station
is just now taking up project; first,
to determine the prevalence of the
disease within the state, and finally,
with the view of trying out various
methods of handling it. Such a study
will probably not be finished short of
many years, but it is hoped that some
thing may be done in order to alleviate
the enormous loss which now comes
from this condition. E Newson,

Law. But Not Justice
Crawford Chronicle)

Last Thursday Will Fluke towed a
car to Delta for repairs, and having
| left the car at the garage. started
for home, but had occasion to stop
on the street for a minute, so pulled
his car to one sisde and stopped.
their hair Drained marshal proceeded
| to arrest viii and took him before the
police magistrate who, trying to imi-
tate all dignity and formality of his
high (?) office, pronounced fine of
$3.50 which VIII paid under protest.
This was law all right, and is a very
good city ordinance-but it showed
/ ignorance on the part OF the marshal
in making the arrest. inasmuch as
a marshal with a thimbleful of brains
would have realized that the man was
ignorant of such law and politely
asked him to turn his car around, ex-
planned the law and by so doing made
friend and have done his duty by
seeing that the intention of the law
was carried out Passing the marshal
up for an ignoramus that knew no
better. the high magistrate on inves-
tigation OF the case might have rep
rimanded the prisoner gently for his
mistake through ignorance of the law,
and remitted the fine. But since
both their salaries depend largely on
fines. they showed their greedy dis
honesty by using law for usury."
While the wording OF the above is
pretty much heated, and some of it
misunderstood, the gist is worthy of
comment.
The right and left" ordinances
which are being so stringently enforc-
ed. were intended more as educational
measures than otherwise. and it isn't
a wise thing to make arrests on them
unless in an aggravated case of a
son. for 1t may happen unintentionaily
by anyone. either without thinking or
without knowledge of the ordinance.
and extravagant authority always

On the other hand, the article is
wrong in saying that the officers of
Delta are dependent upon fines. They
are elected as commissioners and paid
stated salary OF 800 per month
each, and fines collected go into the
city treasury.
In the case mentioned Mr.. Fluke
happened to get into a roundup by
the marshal. of violators of the ordi.
nance in question. in which there were
eight or ten cases, among them some
of the best known citizens and
business men of Delta. The outsider
who comes in to do a little business
in town and drops accidentally into
an attempt to enforce these more or
less silly ordinances. has right to
feel that he has been imposed upon
and goes away with n CLINT in his eye
and feeling in his heart that it is
the last cent that town will get of
his money, II he can help it.
There are some other things which
might as properly occupy the atten-
tion of our police department, one of
which is the large amount of petty
thieving going on all over town. un-
til 1t has become unsafe to leave any
article OF value exposed In the auto

and motorcycles, should como first
