Says Whiskey Did Il.

We take the following letter writ
ten by Harry Clark. recently sent to
the penitentiary, from the Davis
News, written. in the Jail at this
place.
Will you please allow me space in
your paper to warn the young men OF
Davis, so many of whom was raised
with?
While the church bells were ring
ing this morning, looked out of this
window near where am sitting now,
l saw 80 many respectable young men
going to and from church. l thought
of my good home and how my parents
had coaxed me to stop drinking and
live an honorable life. But no. l
thought a saloon was the only place
for a good time. Boys, you see
where l am! 1t was whiskey that
brought me here! had nothing
against Harry McMann and had l been
sober there would have been no
trouble. did not get justice. l
have always been told that first
degree murder was q cold blooded act,
done with malice. He had knocked
me down and was coming at me again
when cut him. But l did not mean
to kill him, and am very sorry that l
did. Boys, my condition ought to be
lesson to you. My advice to you is,
keep out of saloons and all low dives.
l never had any desire to do wrong
when ! was sober, and never did l get
into any trouble unless was full of
whiskey. l will soon leave for the
penitentiary, but remember l 60
there with nothing in my heart
against any one, and if that jury
think they gave me justice l will
leave them in the hands of the Lord.
Boys, be honorable, sober and up
right and if l never see you again on
this earth will always think of you
and wish you we'll.

an article in the Weippe Mud-Guyser

Is made to prove that Mr.. Becker re-
ceived $l53. Al for services which the
county attorney should have per-
formed. The same claim has been
advanced in the Orofino Tribune on
several occasions. The facts are
that the services were clerical and
were all performed under the direc-
ton of the county attorney. For
similar work in the foreclosure of the
tax liens in Nez Perez county. $3.50. 25
was paid, SCOOPS to Mr.. Wyatt for

sioners, by minute made Jan. 3Oth.,
1915, authorized Mr.. Smith, our
county attorney, to procure such cler-
ical assistance in the preparation Of
these lien cases as he might require.
These cases were required to be filed
by the 9th of April, and there was
large amount of work necessary to
ascertain what cases should be filed,
what the chain of title and who were
necessary parties defendant in order
to give good title to the prospective
purchaser.
AS the law under which the fore
closures are made was to 20 into
operation for the first time, and as
there was much uncertainty as to the
construction of some Of it's provisions,
a convention consisting of the Attor-
ney General and the County Attor-
neys of the different counties was
held to confer and decide upon gen.
eral plan of procedure. BY the time
the proceedings of this convention
were available little time was left
for preparationsof the cases. The
County Attorney is not required or
expected to be stenographer or even
typewritist. He has, however,
done all the typewriting required in
his office except in cases where there
was too large an amount for him tt
handle and keep up the other work ct
the office.
The law authorizes the Commits
sionlers to employ stenographer a
salary of $1,000 per year, but there
is so little necessity for such expend
iture that the officers have gottel
along without it and less than $lO'
per year has been expended for thi
work.
The reason the work of typewritinl

was done in Mr.. Becker's Office wa
that his stenographer was the onl
one in town available at that time
so far as the county attorney ha
knowledge, and the work done by Mr.
Becker in looking up the titles, etc.
was worth many times the money pal

the county attorney is entitled to
considerable credit for saving the
county money.
The principal reason Taylor Blake
West offers as an excuse for people
voting for him is that he has been a
legal failure so far, but needs the
money. He wants to get little law
experience at county expense. He
wants to go to school. SO to speak. at
the expense of the taxpayers OF this
county. Elect him and then, when
the county needs lawyer. it can hire
George Tannahill, Dwight Hodge, or
some other of the Blake Elder bunch.
Hodge was paid $500 for accompanying
Blair Hoar to Boise and appearing
before the state board of equalization.
That was the year they cut Clearwater
county timber 20 per cent. Hinckley
went alone this year, got cut only 5
per cent, and it cost the county $50.
Jim Blake is the democratic or
ganization in the county today. Clint
Perkins made that possible. Blake
is crook, and the election of Blake
ticket means two years more Of booze
graft. and inefficiency. That is what
Blake rule has always meant.
1t has taken a republican county
board and republican county Officials
two years hard work to undo the dirty
work of the their democratic prede-
cessors. Now the same old gang
wants another two years.
l. r. Crow has not yet made goot
his shortage when he went out al
probate judge. But what of that
Give him two more years and another
whack at the pie counter.
Vote for T. Rooze West and saw
money. He will let the governo
enforce the law. Holsclaw did that
and you know how it worked.
Elect any of the Jim Blake bunc
and you will have fellows like Leepe
and Hilton on the county payrolls a

therefor. II Mr.. Becker had pre-
pared all these cases for trial and
charged the usual legal fees therefor.
his bill would have been not less than
1925, instead of $65. Mr.. West, By
ing an attorney (D. should know that
much. If he doesn't know this then
his experience as lawyer must have
been very limited.
Instead of being criticised FOR this
expenditure, it would seem to us that
the county attorney is entitled to
considerable credit for saving the
county money.
