LARGE PROFITS
TEMPT BooTLEoGERS

The profits TO be obtained from
bootlegging are so great that
many are taking the chance Of
arrest and punishment for the
large amount of money to be
made. 1t is said that the boot
leggers find no difficulty in dis
posing Of all they can bring in
at $3.50 a pint and a prospective
sentence Of SiOO fine and thirty
days in the county Jail does not
look very bad as compared with
the immense profits possible.
The police officers watch the
trains and seize all liquor they
can find but that large quantities
miss them is shown by the great
number Of drunken men to be
seen on the streets.
Wednesday the sheriff's Office
received information that liquor
could be found in certain rooms
in the Annex Hotel and that even
ing raided the place. The officers
were successful in securing two
suit cases filled with liquor which
they seized and took to the court
house but they made no arrests
When Chief Of Police Steele
saw the suit cases he recognized
them as being the same as two

Will Consider
Important Legislation
TO INCREASE STATE SCHOOL LEVY
Warm Fight Expected At State Teachers Meeting
Northern Counties Oppose Bill

Miss Ruth Gerhart, county su-
perintendent of schools, left for
Boise Thursday evening to attend
The meeting of the superintend-
ents of the state December 27
and % and the State Teachers
Association, which meets there
Dec. 20 and 80. Miss Gerhart
started a few days earlier in or
der to spend Christmas with her
mother, who resides in Boise.
City superintendent Lukens, who
will also attending the meeting,
will not leave until Monday.
These meetings are considered
very important as matters of pro-
posed legislation in regard to the
schools are to be discussed and
recommendations for or against
the proposed measures will be
made to the legislature.
One of the most important of
these measures is that suggested
by Dr. E. o. SissOn, commission
er of education, providing for in
creasing the amount of money to
be raised by the state for school
purposes. This money is to be
appOrtioned among the different
counties of the state according
to the number Of pupils.
1t is stated that a number Of
the suprintendents in the south
ern part of the state are favoring
the measure for the reason that
their counties would be benefit
ed by it by getting considerable
more money from the state than
they would have to pay in taxes.
On the other hand, the superin-
tendents from the northern coun-
ties are opposing the measure.
In the northern counties more
money would have to be raised
for the state school tax than the
counties would get back In
these counties, which are new
the need of school buildings is
| growing to such an extent that
the taxpayers find it difficult to
meet the ever-increasing de-
mands on them for the schools
To have this demand still further
increased and the money raised
used in other parts of the state
? seems manifestly unfair. Fol
this reason the superintendent
, of the northern counties will op-
pose the proposed change in The
I laws.
, There has been considerable
correspondence between the SUI
perintendents on the subject ant

a warm fight over the question is

C. Egbers of Kootenai county is
chairman of the committee on
School Revenue Legislation and
is leading the fight against the
measure. The members Of the
committee are supposed to be
evenly divided, the two southern
members favoring and the two
northern members opposing the
measure. Commissioner Sisson
is known to favor the plan while
Miss Ethel Redfeld, state super
intendent-elect, is supposed to be
opposed to it.

man the day before. His check
had been made out for him and he
expected to leave camp that noon.

FIRST GAME

The local high school basket
ball team won the first game of
the season by defeating the Elk
River high school team last Fri
day evening on the home floor by
the large score of SO to fl.
The game was a walk-away for
st. Maries, even though the sec
ond team was used, and the ex-
cellent exhibition OF teamwork
and basket-shooting deserved a
better attendance. Gallagher,
playing his first game for st.
Maries, proved himself a remark
able basket-tosser, making "A

minutes. Mulroney was a close
second, with ten goals in the first
half.
In the second half Lane was
substituted for Mulroney and
Putnam for Underwood, at the
forwards, Ennis for Martinson at
center, and Mashburn and Collar
for Gallagher and Reiman al
guards.
The score was so to at the
end of the first half, but the in
experienced visitors were still
unable to hold their own against
the boys who took the floor for
St. Maries in the second half.
Lane scored one field goal, Ennis
3, Martinson 3, Underwood s.,
Reiman 1, Collar 1, and Putnam 8.
One field goal in each half, by
Woodwork and Vevle, with 7
points on free throws by the lat
ter, completed the Elk River
score. Sixteen fouls were called
on st. Maries and two on the Wis
itors. The S. M. H. S. girls
played a preliminary and were

Barr refereed the game, giving
excellent satisfaction to both
teams and spectators.
