mentary evidence by which the state

the view that the trial would prob
ably take several weeks.

League Will Protest Against Higher
Rates for Water

The regular meeting of the Develop
ment League Thursday evening was
of unusual interest, for matter OF
almost vital importance to this COM
munity was UP for discussion.
Under the head OF new business, j..
W. Briggs brought up the question
of the application of M. E. Hughes,
trustee for the Elmore Irrigated
Farms Association, to the utilities
commission for permission to raise
the charges for delivering water un-
der decreed rights, and asked tor
an expression of sentiment from the
members present.
1t was brought out that Mr.. Hughes
has asked for permission TO raise the
charge for water service for decreed
rights from $3.50 to $3.50 per acre,
and for decreed rental rights from
$3.50 per acre to $l4.l0. He sets
forth that the system of the com-
pany has a value of Sl00,000.00 and
that only about a thousand acres
can be irrigated from this system.
Upon this valuation and upon figures
he gives as the cost OF maintenance,
taxes, etc., he bases the reason for
his request for the proposed raise. 1t
was the unanimous sentiment OF the
members of the league that the
charge is exhorbitant and that no one
can afford to pay such price, and
Q. K. Corker and j. A, Purtill were
named as a committee to make a
thorough investigation OF the whole
situation and to present to the Util-
ties Commission the formal protest
OF the League.
Other matters of interest to the or
ganizauon were taken up and dis
posed of, among them being new
plan for getting and keeping an ac
tive membership. The committee
placed in charge of this work is
made up of Messrs. Grebe, Rorrison
and Turvsr.

as are studying the sciences. The
other matter which he seemed to
greatly deplore in nearly all schools
to over7mark pupils. That is the
tendency to give the pupils higher
markings than they have earned. He
felt that it would be far better for
the children if they and their par
ents knew at all times what their
true standing was. To illustrate, he
stated that if his child earned eighty
in a study and was marked at eighty
five he would feel that he had just
cause for complaint, but IL the child
earned ightey-five and was marked
at only eighty he would feel alright
about 1T.
Our greatest investment is now,
and always has been, In humanity.
and if we fail TO give our children
the necessary and proper training to
enable them to exercise their full
earning capacity we fail to realize
to the fullest on that investment.
The child's opportunity is here today.
Tomorrow 1t is gone forever and no
earthly power can recall It.
There were a great many good
things in DR.. Sisson's talk that it Is
impossible to give here, but 1t would
be good for the people to hear them
for 1T would certainly give different
viewpoint as to the value OF our
schools, and also as to what is being
accomplished and what Ia being
striven for.

INTERESTING MEET FIGHTS EXTRADITION
California Man DON t Want to
Come to Idaho

Ten days ago Sheriff Stevens left
for Los Angeles armed with papers
for the extradition of Alvin A. Her
bert who is wanted in this county on
charge of child stealing, but, as will
be seen by the following press dis
patch taken from the Thursday morn
ing Statesman, Mr. Herbert is making
hard fight to keep from being
brought back.
Producing character affadavits from
supreme court judges, United States
senators, the attorney general OF Ida
ho and other prominent officials and
business men of her native state,
Mrs. Hermoine Bradley OF Mountain
home, Ida, wife of former State Sen
ator Bradley. denIg d Wednesday al
the allegations made in the superior
court by her former husband, Alvin
A. Herbert, who is accused by Mrs.
Bradley OF kidnapping her daughter,
Marian. The proceedings involve the
proposed eXtradition OF Mr.. Herbert
to Idaho on the charge of child
stealing.
1T is true that l secured divorce
from Mr.. Herbert on the grounds of
non-support and cruelty" said Mrs
Bradley. 1t is true that | married
Walter Christy alter securing a di-
vorce, and that in turn | secured a
divorce from him on good and suffic-
lent grounds, and it is true that
married third time, but unless it is
crime to wed two or three times, /
have done nothing wrong.
So far as Mr.. Herbert's charges
that | drank liquor with Mr.. Christy
and went on joy rides with him while
acting as state secretary of the young
Homens branch of the w. c. I. u,
are concerned, they are false. am
not a woman who cares for such a
lie, as all OF my acquaintances and
friends viii testify, and which is am
ply proven i'll the affidavits l have
with me-"
Ihe affidavits referred to include
nose signed by Alfred Budge, judge
Of the supreme court of Idaho; James
IL. Brady, United States senator from
Idaho and j. II. Peterson, attorney
general OF the state. All of the
ffadavits speak in the highest terms
y Mrs, Bradley and her husband. Ac
cording to Mrs. Bradleys statements,
the fight over Marian started last
July, after the courts in South Dakota
had awarded her the custody Of the
child.
Mr. and Mrs Bradley are very we'll
and favorably known here. Their
home is at Hammett where Mr.. Brad
ley has large real estate holdings and
naturally, sympathy is with Mrs. Brad
ley in her effort to regain her child.

FOUND GUILTYsoF BATTERY
:. E. Barrett Drew Hundred and
Fifty Dollars Fine

Wednesday E. e. Barrett, a far
mer whose place is about twenty
miles southeast OF town, was ar
raigned in the court of Justice A. +.
Downs on a charge of battery upon
complaint of Paul H. Walker.
The evidence established facts
about as follows: For some time
past Mr.. Barrett had been trying to
have closed a certain road which
passes through his place, and had
succeeded in getting assurance from
one member of the Board OF Commis-
sioners that such action would be
taken. He did not wait, however, for
the legal closing, but proceeded to
put up u sign at one Of his field, Civ
ing notice that the road was closed,
and was in the act of fencing the
road at the other end of the field
when the complaining witness, MIR.
Walker, and his brother drove along
in an automobile. They paid no at
tention to the sign and drove into
the field. Mr. Barrett started across
the field to meet them, coming
down the middle Of the road and as
he approached the car was slowed
down but did not stop. 1t seems
that Mr. Barrett was violently an
gered and threw his hammer at the
occupants of the car smashing the
wind shield.
The defense offered in behalf of Mr..
Barrett was that he was about to be
run down by the car and only threw
the hammer as a matter Of self pro-
lection.
The jury found the defendant guilty
and the justice imposed fine total
ling $4,000, just a little more than
5he costs in the case.
