Fresh In the public memory still is the opening

TWO CRUISERS OFF
VIRGINIA CAPES

Newport News, Va, Feb. s.-British
shipmasters in a statement yesterday
reported that two allied cruisers-one
British and the other French, are pa
trolling the coast off the Virginia
capes. Since there Is no probability
that the German prize Appam will put
to sea in the near future, marine men
take the presence of the warships to
mean that the allied governments ex-
pect other prizes captured by the mys
terious German raider to be brought
to hampton Roads.
Collector Hamilton said Monday
night he had received no word from
Washington concerning the status OF
the Appam or of the 10 Germans for
merly civil prisoners of England who
requested that they be allowed to land
from the Appam.
The Appam Monday was allowed tc
land geo tons of coal for port use.

CITY COUNCIL WILL
HAVE MANACfMfNTOF
LIBRARY IN future

Owing TO the fact that the Black law
takes away the powers Of the Carnegie
library board, which has had charge of
the library for number of years, the
members Of the board, John f. Nu-
gent, Frank T. Wyman, Mrs. Sarah
Bowers, Mrs. c. C. Anderson and Mrs.
K l. Perky, will tender their resigna-
lions to the city as soon as Mrs. An
derson returns from the east, when a
session of the board will be held and
IL will go out of existence, turning the
management of the library over to the
city council.
The library board and the council
have had no difficulties until recently
when the board engaged Miss Nc
Pherson as librarian at a salary of 800
per month, which amount is above the
salary specified by the Black law as
pay for a librarian. The law fixes the
salary at $S5 and requires any officer
employed to sign up to accept such sal
airy before taking the position. Miss
Mcpherson did not sign up and has
looked to the library board for her
pay and refused to accept a salary less
than the amount upon which she agreed
when taking the position.
The cost of operating the library is
at present $4,000 per year, but the
council believes it can cut the operat-
ing cost $1,000 annually when the Ii
brary is handled directly under its
supervision.

MARSTERS CASE
Will Be ARGUED
Important Question to Be
Decided by the Court of
Appeals.

The right of an agent of the state OF
Idaho as watermaster to cut the locks
in the gates of a government canal and
divert water to alleged priority water
users below the diversion work, to the
detriment of the government project
waterusers and the power house of the
project, will be argued on appeal in the
United States circuit court at San
Francisco Feb. 20. The appeal is from
the findings of the United States dis
trict court for the Idaho jurisdiction
against Elias Marsters and his deputy
Lakin, defendants in an action insti-
tuted by the United States for and on
behalf of the reclamation service.
Attorney General ]. II. Peterson will
appear on behalf of the state before
the circuit court. The government will
be represented by United States Dis
trict Attorney McClear. On Feb. rs,
District Attorney McClear will appear
before that tribunal In the appealed
action known as the ''six-hour case,
involving the Oregon Short Line Rail-
way company.
Case One Of Interest
The Marsters case Is one that at
tracted unusual interest at the time 1t
came into prominence. There was a
water shortage at the time he took the
action that involved him as repre-
sentative of the state in the litigation.
He was watermaster for the Boise dis
trict and as such an official saw to the
distribution of water from the Boise
river. Many of the alleged priority
water right holders in the valley in
sisted on the right to water that was
being diverted into the government
canal Acting under instructions
from the attorney general the water
master visited the point of diversion OF
the water from the river to the recla-
nation projects canal. broke the locks
and diverted the amount of water al
legged due the priority water right
holders into their canal. Litigation i'm
mediately followed. Marsters was made
defendant in the case which is looked
upon as a test one and the findings OF
the lower court were adverse to him
From. these findings the state appealed
and the argument on the appeal and
its submission Is to take place on the
date announced above.

that some of the cooperative interests

have deliberately planned to bring
hard times in order to discredit the
present administration and fool and
starve the working people into sub.

with a small and fluctuating payroll.

terprise, Boise grew very rapidly, and
now that these enterprises are COM
peted and payrolls from those sources
cease, we naturally feel it and note the
difference.
Have Spirit That Wins.
| 1t is sheer folly to expect Boise to
maintain permanent prosperity with

would seem, then, the logical thing to
do is for our citizsns to get together

waste our energies.
