DEMURRERS IN SCHOOL
SUITS FILED MONDAY
Actions Raise Question of Legality of
Awards in Contract for Building

General demurrers were filed in the
district court Monday on behalf of all
the defendants by G. w. Lampson, at
torney for the Nampa school trustees
to the actions brought by Charles
Storey and R. E. Haggett to restrain
A. 5. Whiteway, contractor, from pro-
ceeding with the building of the new
NIampa High school, and to restrain
the trustees from paying any money
on account of the awarding of the
contract to Whiteway.
Both suits raise the question of the
legality of the award Of the contract
to Whiteway, but since no restraining
order was sought or made by the
court, the building of the school is be-
ing proceeded with.
On Saturday, A. S. Whiteway, a
party defendant in both actions
through his counsel demurred on his
own behalf, so that the legal question
whether the complaints state a cause
of action must first be disposed of be-
fore any of the defendants will be re-
CURED to answer
Hearings on the demurrers will 90
over until September. since Judge
Bryan declared recess of the district
court until September 9, before going
on his vacation. There was some talk
at the court house Monday indicating
that the demurres might be heard
by the Judge of some other district.

RICE NAMED SUCCESSOR
OF JUSTICE SULLIVAN
Caldwell Man Pays Visit to Blackfoot
and Makes Impression

John c. Rice, member of the law
firm of Rice and Thompson, and can
didate for justice of the supreme court
is making a canvass of the state in the
interests of his candidacy. Mr.. Rice
was at Blackfoot last week He made
very good impression upon the peo-
= of that city. He is designated the
success of Mr. Justice I. N Sullivan
by the Blackfoot Optimist The Opt
mist says:
Hon. John c. Rice of Caldwell, Ida,
very promising candidate for the ST.
preme bench to succeed Judge Sulli-
van, was in Blackfoot last Friday and
SATURDAY. visiting friends who seem to
be legion. Mr. Rice enjoys the distinc-
ton of being one of the most able and
honorable lawyers in this state. His
opponent is Judge Robert Dunn of
Occur d'Alene, but as Judge Morgan
of the supreme bench is also from the
north, Moscow, it would not be fair
or wise for the voters of the State to
have two north Idaho men on the SUI
preme bench. Judge Sullivan is also a
candidate to succeed himself, but as
he has been on the supreme bench for
the past quarter of a century, ever
since we became state, it is not likely
that he is at all sanguine of being re-
elected, and as he is getting along in
years and doubtless we'll fixed finan-
cially his retirement to private life

HIGH TRIBUTE TO
CATHERINE 7. Dryden

u lie lUdIO IOSt.J
There is rich reward even in the
holding of poorly paid public office
when it brings such beautiful trib-
utes as came to Catherine T. Dryden
Tuesday evening in this issue of The
Post.
Tributes such as came to this young
woman on this occasion from those
most intimate with her in official life,
in social and church activities and in
the field of education, Cher life work.
are won only by long and faithful
service, sterling integrity and I'M
usual ability. They are won by some
thing in the character that reaches
beyond all ordinary ties.
When it is remembered that the
millions of money loaned by the
state land board comes from the pub
lie school funds, and that the state
superintendent of public instruction
is one of the five members of the
state land board, it becomes appar-
ent that aggressive honesty, keen
business instinct and broad grasp
Of the affairs of the state This is
lutte essentials in this office. This is
what makes Miss Dryden so strong
a candidate. 1t would be we'll for
the best interests of the state if she
could be nominated and elected with
out opposition.
Since there is contest on for the
nomination, and likely to be one for
the election, it would be we'll for all
familiar with Miss Bryden's qualifi-
cations. and familiar with conditions
at the state capital to crowd her
candidacy now with all possible vigor

THERE WILL BE GOOD
RACES AT COMING FAIR
]. S. Harrington States That All Last
Years Horses are Coming

J. S. Harrington, who has charge
OF the speed program at the Idaho
State Fair, states that there will be
races and good races at the fair this
fall. He has been in communication
with the race horse men who are COM
ing back this year.
The races last year were as inter-
eSting as the races anywhere. Mr..
Harrington says: "Of course our races
last year were not as fast as some but
they were every bit as interesting to
watch. We shall have the same money
to spend this year. Purses of equal
size with those of a year ago will be
hung The horse men who were with
us last year will he here again.
You may rest assured that the
speed program at the Idaho State Fair
this fall will be fp to standard in every
way. We will thave the horses and
races. have been in communication
with men of the turf and am now ar
ranging the program. The program
will be made public in a short time"
Everybody at Work
All the committees of the Idaho
State Fair are at work. They all feel
highly encouraged over the outlook
for big successful fair this coming
year. The people of neighboring com
munities are showing their interest
and will be on hand with exhibits of
all kinds.
Owyhee county is the first county
to take action officially. Owyhee
county has made an appropriation for
an exhibit at the fair this fall and will
be here with a good country exhibit.
Other countries will follow suit.

McCRACKEN IS NIX

\Llk NlVtI OCIltlHelJ
Congressman R. M. McCracken, of
Boise, is again candidate to succeed
himself. Why in the name of all the
gods he should be returned is more
than any Idaho man can understand.
Poor little McCracken never did and
never will Intentionally harm the
state; he is honest enough and has the
best of intentions. There is nothing
the matter with him except that he is
a lightweight and never will be any
thing else.
The old ladies who compose the wo-
mems clubs speak of him as Charm
ing man." and support him strongly
tor anything he wants He can bal
ance cup of tea, macaroon and a
lettuce sandwich gracefully on one
knee from 4:30 to 5 p. m. without ever
spilling a drop of the bohea or AN idea
He has beautiful manners, a nice COM
plexion, good taste in haberdashery,
and small talk, high moral principles,
a nice little legal practice that makes
no undue drain on his mental re-
sources and is as much at home among
the ladies of the elder set as a Pekin-
csc in muff.
All these delightful qualities and ac-
complishments do not necessary make
a congressman who can Bring home
the bacon.
, Mr.. McCracken was once elected;
perhaps he will win again-but if he
does Idaho might as we'll purchase
beautifully painted wooden Indian and
ship. it to Washington The expense
would be less and the results the same.

THOMPSON LEFT TUESDAY
MORNING FOX EAST
Business Affairs and Illness of Father
Called Judge East

Judge J. M. Thompson left Tuesday
morning for New York, East Brady
Pa, and other points in the east Tues
day morning. Mr.. Thompson received
word Monday that his father was
very sick at his home at East Brady
Pa, and this decided him to go east
earlier than he expected to go.
Judge Thompson will attend to bus
mess matters at New York after visit
ing his father. We suspect, but would
not publicly state, that he will prob
ably visit Washington before return
ing home. Mr.. Thompson, as attor-
ney for numerous irrigation districts,
has business before the departments at
Washington. He expects to be away
a month or six weeks.

lishment of the first bank in St. An
thony. Six years ago he was a candi-
date for the gubernatorial nomination
against Governor Hawley on the
Democratic ticket He is described by
the people of his home town as being
prominent and eminent citizen.
AS the nominations for justices of
the supreme court have by law been
made non-partisan in nature, the ele-
ment of politics does not enter into
the campaign of Judge Rice. He with
others will have to go before the peo-
pie at the primary unsupported by a
political party, and purely upon their
own merits.

1t is not often a citizen of any
community receives finer compli-
ment than that paid Miss Catherine T.
Dryden in Moscow this week. Volun-
tarily few of those who know her
best gathered at the court hose Mon
day evening and started movement
for the organization of a non-parti-
san club to promote her candidacy
for superintendent of public instruc
ton.
Start Dryden Club
AS result of this initial meeting,
a crowd gathered in the district court
room Tuesday evening and perfected
the organization. No attention was
paid to party politics. Roy o. John
Mrs. J. N. Boland and Mrs c. J. Or
secretary, and B. T. Byrns. treasurer.
What Neighbors Think
The esteem in which Miss Dryden
is held in the community is indicated
by the following resolutions signed
by Frank L. Moore, NJ f. Lewis, A.
II. Oversmith, F. A. MCGOWAN and
William Hunter:
Whereas, Miss Catherine T. Bry-
den has announced herself as a can
didate for state superintendent of
public instructions:
"We the citizens of Moscow and
Latah county, her neighbors, associ-
ates and co-workers, independent of
party utilization, in mass-convention
assembled, knowing best her quail
hcations, worth and ability, and APP
preciating her valuable and devoted
services to the city. county and state
in her educational work, do hereby
Resolve, That we recommend Miss
Dryden to the voters of the state of
Idaho as lady of superior intellec-
tual and educational attainments,
having had long, varied and success
full experience in educational work,
possessed of rare executive ability;
original jealous and forceful in her
methods and in every way qualified
to discharge the duties ~ the high
office to which she aspires with
credit to herself and the state"
Spread the Tidings
The only fault found with these
resolutions in the meeting was that
they were not strong enough. Short
talks were made by number of those
present and ways and means were
uiSIuSSSu lOI advancing MISS Dry
den's cause. 1t was agreed that the
Dryden club in Latah county must
have at least 1000 members before
the end of the week, and it was pro-
posed to organize other similar clubs
in other counties.
All Friends Get Busy
Many volunteered to write to
friends in all parts OF the state, send
ing copies of the resolutions and
urging support of Miss Brvden at
the primary in September. 1t was
proposed also to take up the matter
through the commercial clubs, the
women's clubs and the newspapers.
There was great enthusiasm mani
tested and the candidate was given
every assurance that her campaign
would not lag through lack of willing
workers in her home community.
The meeting adjourned subject to
the call of the president of the club
when other means will be considered
for placing Miss Bryden's candidacy

After Trevino's soldiers, at Carran-
as orders, had shot up Captain Boyd's
men at Carrizal, Wilson sent "a
stern note" to ask Carranza what his
course was to be. And he demanded
tht the answer must be transmitted
by regular diplomatic channels and
not through subordinate military Of
icers. Evidently, a written communi-
cation by the hand of Senior Arren-
dondo means more to the administra-
ton at Washington than a leaden
messenger.
