ARMS DENIED TO
BORDER RESIDENTS
WAR DEPARTMENT REFUSES THE
REQUEST MADE BY THE Gov

Secretary Believes Arms Should Not

Washington-Sena Ashurst wal
Informed by the war department on
Monday that it could not under the
law furnish citizens of Arizona 5000
rifles requested by the governor for
purposes Of self-protection against
raids from Mexico.
Senator Ashurst made public tele-
gram from Secretary Baker to Gov
ernor Hunt explaining the depart
ment's refusal.
There is no authority of law for
this issue of arms" read the telegram.
I'm the present apparent panicky
state of mind of citizens along the
border, l do not think that arms
should be placed in the hands of any
body of men except those who are un-
der the severest discipline. The pres
ence in border towns of armed bodies
of citizens is liable to result in some
unfortunate incident which might pre-
cipitate the very trouble that all wish
to avoid. l cannot recommend the in
discriminate arming of the civilian
population. Consular reports indicate
that there are few Mexican troops

aware of the conditions and is believ-
ed to he taking such steps for pro-
lection of citizens as it should demand

LET'S CLEAN UP?

Fellow Citizens: Let us get to-
gether and make this town of ours
the most healthful and most inviting
in the State. To do this we must or
ganize our forces, map out our plans
and get to work. Other cities and
towns throughout the United States
are finding the efforts along these
lines are bringing excellent results.
If we would have healthful town
we must clear our atticss cellars,
stables, Sheds yards, streets, alleys
and vacant lots of trash dirt, junk,
filth, garbage, rags, cans, bottles and
weeds We must empty toilets. cover
manure heaps, drain barn lots, open
cutters, fill up mudholes and Shiny,
ill-smelling ponds, repair streets and
burn rubbish
Then we must use soap and scrub
brushes, brooms, rakes and shovels.
We must throw lime freely about
toilets and stables. Why? Because
disease germs and germ carrying in
sects, especially flies and mosquitoes,
breed in filth and spread typhoid and
consumption when they enter our liv-
ing rooms, alight on our food, or bite
us while we sleep.
After the dirt is gone we must re-
pair our buildings and fix our fences
and then lay on the paint! Paint
everything that needs it, inside and
out, for paint is the best known pre-
servative and it's Frightening influ-
ence will make the dullest town in
the world look spick and span.
OF course when we buy paint and
lime we put money into the paint
dealers and lime dealers pockets.
But il we get sick and die the doctor,
druggist, undertaken sexton and the
tombstone man take our coin. Most
folks would rather spend theirs on
paint and lime-take your choice.
Come on, now, folks. Let's call a
form a Clean Up and Paint
Up Club composed of men, women and
children, and get on the job! The
prize is worth it--health and happi-f

ent time there are no active cases
of hog cholera within Lincoln County
and since January 1, 1916, only one
infected herd has been treated The
location of this last infected herd was
two miles south of Jerome in Lincoln

tinued cooperation in lending every
effort to prevent hog cholera reach

fencing, feed troughs and floors should
be thoroly sprayed with per cent
solution of Cresol Compound, after
which a liberal application of white
wash should be applied with brushes

houses. Locate your hog lots away
from public highways and see that
drainage from same does not in any
way contaminate irrigation streams.

given with view of aiding all those

IDAHO IRRIGATION
COMPANY WINS SUIT
Judge Boutwell, Grants Motion for
Non-suit Against Mrs. Zeigler

The case of the Idaho Irrigation com
pany VS.. Mrs. Anna M. Zeigler, fore
closure Of mortgage on water contract
came to a sudden end at Mountain
Home Monday afternoon when Judge
Boutwell, granted motion for non-suit
against the defendant, who had set uI
a counter claim for damages against
the company on account of lack OF
water during the season 1915.
The case which was regarded as ar
extremely important one, both by the
settlers on irrigated lands, and by the
Carey act companies, has attracted a
good deal of attention during the past
week. The irrigation company was
represented by Oppenbeim & Hodgin
of Boise and Longley & Walters of
Twin Falls, while the defendant had as
her attorney Guy Bissell of Gooding.
NO PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS
The trial of the case, which had twice
been postponed, began there on Thurs
day last, when a jury was secured, and
the first witnesses were examined
From the evidence submitted it devel-
oped that Mrs Zeigler, and her hus-
band, w. 0. Zeigler, had bought land
on the North Shoshone tract, and
about seven miles north of that place
in the spring of 1910, and had lived on
the place since that time, improving it
generally. 1t was claimed by the com
pany and admitted by the defendant
that no payments had been made on
the water right, nor any payment of
except the initial payment.
Mrs Zeigler had paid her yearly
and operation charge for
all the years except 1910, until the
water was shut off.
FILED COUNTER CLAIM
Suit for foreclosure of mortgage was

begun by the company on January Is,
1915. and the company on the 1st of
April of that year refused to deliver
water from it's canals for this land
On August Is, 1915, the defendant filed
counter claim for damages on account
of such refusal, claiming damages in
the amount of S8700 An effort was
made by defendant to show that the
delivery of water during the 1910 sea-
son was so irregular that under the
contract interest on the unpaid balance
of the water right purchase price did
not commence to run until April a, 1911
nor was any deferred payments due un-
til year later.
ATTACKED CONTRACT
The other contention of the defen-
dant was that the provision of the
water contract under which the com
pany refused delivery of water in 1915,
was invalid as being opposed to public
policy. These were the two points

and about which the trial conferred
TEST CASE
The irrigation company has regarded
the case as crucial test of the validity
of its contracts, claiming that unless
that provision of the contract permit
ting the company to refuse delivery of
water to those delinquent was sustained
as in accord with public policy, the
would find itself unable to en-
force the collection of it's dues. No
announcement has been made of
an appeal from the decision of
the court will be taken to the supreme
court.

gage was granted by Judge Boutwell,.

Senators Broussard and Ransdell
