Twin Falls, April 21.-Thomas Dow
cry, editor of the Twin Falls Chronicle,
was arrested, charged with criminal
libel by Mayor E. M. Sweeley, as u
result of two editorials attacking the
policy of the mayor relative to the
water works bonds. The Chronicle
Wednesday night, said: THE appar-
ent anxiety of the mayor to fix up
100000 package for his special engf-
neer has caused much, wonder and
speculation. The Job was so neatly
and effectively done that it behooves
every taxpayer to go to the polls next
Tuesday and vote against the water
works bond issue in their present
FORMS"
In another editorial, entitled swat
the Ethiopian the Chronicle, further
commented on the bond election and
the report Of Engineer Kelsey. While
the paper was on the press the city
council, at the request of Mayor
Sweeley, called off the bond election.

THE CAPTURE OF JERUSALEM.

The paramountcY of the practical in
these days will obscure in a measure
the sentimental interest attaching to
the capture of Jerusalem by the British
forces under Gen. Allenby, thrugh in
this instance sentiment is no mean ally
of military and political practically.
Losing Jerusalem after having held it
for practically 1900 years, fanatlcal
Turks may well question whether they
have not been deserted by the powers
above, and despair. Taking Jerusalem,
Christians may discern an omen of
Divine approval of the cause they
represent, and be encouraged. But
considering this success merely as a
military achievement it is of Importance
as establishing the supremacy of the
British over the German. Turkish COM
bination, presaglng the collapse of the
Turks and adding another lnsurmount-
able obstacle to the accomplishment of
pan-German territorial scheme.
Turning again to the sentimental
side, we find in the persistence of the
British movement in Palestine earnest
ness Of purpose to fulfil the pledge to
Zionism to restore that country to the
Jews. With the capture of Jerusalem
realiZati ton of that hope which has sus
tanned the great and growing body OF
Zionists seems much nearer. Increasing
enthusiasm over the prospect cannot
fail to stimulate support of the whole
Ally cause. The success of the pan
German scheme would sound the doom
of the Zionist enterprise. The success
of the Allies will make possible realiza,
ton of lions hopes and result in due
course in the creation of Jewish state
in Palestine destined to become of the
notable examples of democracy in a
world of popular governments.

URGE TO THE FARMERS.

For this year, 1917, now drawing to
a close, the farmers of the United
States topped every previous record;
beat the five year, the ten year and the
hundred averages. In the matter of
grain products alone beat the 1916
record by more than a round billion of
bushels. But the report of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture stresses hard on the
suggestion that for next year the
farmers must top the record of 1917.
The appeal is not only to patriotic
sentiment, but to thrift instincts. No
matter along what lines farming enter
prise may be pushed next year there
will be money in the farm business.
One of the recent suggestions com
ing from the Agricultural Department
is that there should be a specialization
next year on pigs. The demand for
hog products has boosted the price of
everything from lard to breakfast
bacon to figures that-surely should in
duce the farmers to transmute every
thing into pig that can be changed to
pig. The pig will assist in the trans
formation if given anything like fair
chance, and he can use anything from
sour milk to corn on the cob. Outside
the feather tribes, there is no farm
animal that increases so rapidly or
grows so fast as the pig.
Contrary to general belief there has
been very considerable increase IN
milk cows and beef cattle during the
past five years. According to the de-
partment estimated there are over q
million moresmilk cows at the close of
this year than thereS were a year ago
and the increase in beef cattle during
the same time has been about two and
half millions. Ihere,has been very
much larger increase in cattle stocks
during the past four years. There has
been a decline of two million head in
sheep stocks during the year and de-
crease of four millionssin the number of
hogs.

the arrival of B. & 0. train No. 40

former home being at Grantsville.

by nations, which established that in

LISH WAS FOUND
GUILTY BY COURT
Other Proceedings of the Crimi-
nal Branch-Grand Jury Report.

! The December Grand Jury made it's
report on last Friday morning after
having found indictments in forty-elght
cases and after submitting its report to
| Judge Henderson, was discharged, the
report being as follows;
To the honorable, the Judges of the
Circuit Court for Garrett County:
The grand jury for the December
Term Of the Circuit Court for Garrett
county begs leave to report that we
| have row finished our work, and have
to the best of our ability performed the
duties devolvlng upon us as members of
this body, and we now desire to report
our proceedings and receive our dis
charge.
We have had before US and examined
80 witnesses and have found AZ pre-
sentiments in all cases in which we be-
lieve the evidence satisfies, and have
ignored trivial cases and those cases in
which the evidence did not appear to
warrant presentments.
We have examined the several county
| buildings in accordance with your Hon.
or's instructions. We find that the re-
Communications for the repairing of the
court house, Jail and grounds, as re-
commended by the grand jury at the
June Term Of Court have not been
complied with in any way; and we
| further recommend that mans toilet
| sign be placed on the first floor and coat
hangers be placed in the toilet and also
directory of the occupancy of the
Court House be placed in a conspicuous
place.
In the sheriff residence there is no
way of getting furniture into the
deputy sheriff's room, except over the
porch roof and through the window, and
recommend that door be placed lead
ing from the deputy room to the sheriff 5
residence
We especially call the attention of the
county school officers and teachers to
the law relative to vaccination, also to
practicing physicians in the county and
to those in adjoining counties prac-
ticing in Garrett county, that it is
their duty to report all contagious
diseases to the county health officer.
We recommend that the State
Attorney draft bill to be presented
to the next session Of the Legislature
of Maryland in reference to bastardy
cases.
As stated above, we find that all for
mer recommendations made by former
Grand Juries for number of years
have been ignored in every respect,
and especially is this true with reference
to the repairs to buildings. We feel
that it is waste of time to make these
recommendation if they are to be Ig-
nored from time to time.
We desire to acknowledge the many
courtesies shown US by His Honor,
Judge Henderson.
We wish to commend the several
court officers who have the records of
the county in charge for the neat and
business-like manner in which they are
kept. and also extend to them our ap-
probation for courtesies shown US
while in session.
We cannot close this report without
