Alfred Moberg, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Moberg, is in the White hospital
at Lewiston suffering from a diseased
condition of the leg bone below the
knee and is said to be in rather serious
condition. He first suffered siege of
boils and then bad attack of the
grip and later his limb became affected
He was taken to the hospital and oper-
ated on but is said to still be in bad
shape. The many friends of the family

We are in receipt of clipping from
the Boise Capital News sent us by Prof.
Virgil Smith, formerly of Ferdinand,
and which contained picture of Mrs.
Ernest L. Parker and the following
description: "Mrs. Ernest L. Parker,
wife of Idaho's lieutenant governor, is
one of the charming and interesting
women of the official set, and because
she is essentially womanly, is bound to

that Cottonwood has just right to feel
proud of her law makers now in Boise.

in one of the companies Just prior to

Precautionary Measure,

Major Martin takes the stand that he
| thought 1T was for the best interests of
| both the army and the national guard
that someone from the department pass
upon the regiment and barracks con
dltlons. This step was taken merely
! as a precautionary measure. Major
Martin informed the legislative com
mlttees it was without authority to
make formal inspection of the bar
| racks or regiment, which are under the
jurisdiction of the war department of
the federal government, but an informal
inspection could be made and all mat
ters looked into.
The committees accepted the invita-
ton and carefully investigated all mat
ters at the post, including the bids for
toodstuffs and supplies, together with
correspondence in relation to them, In
situations were made that these bids
needed security to determine lust what
they contained
Major Martin said that he had only
refused one man permission to look into
the bids and correspondence but the
press or anyone else, who made a re-
spectful request, could inspect them.
Says Nothing Wrong.
There is nothing wrong at all at the
barracks or in connection with the regi-
ment, or the bids, said Major Martin.
81 thought that in face of the charges
made it is for the best interests of the
army and the national guard that the
barracks be inspected and affairs of
the regiment looked into before demo
bilization. -
Praise for the Food Served.
The military authorities were exon.
Grated from any blame attached to the
transfer of the Second Idaho regiment
from Salt Lake to Boise for demobiliza-
ton, by the special committee of five
appointed by the state senate to inves-
tigate conditions surrounding the reg
iment, in its report filed with the SEN
ate. Senator w. S. Walker of Boun-
Diary county, Republican and minority
member of the committee, submitted
the report, this honor having been con-
ferred upon him because of his service
as soldier in the Civil war. 1t was
adopted without dissenting vote.
The report in full follows:
Why Transfer Was Made.
Report of special senate committee
on military and Indian affairs:
first-We your committee find that
Fort Douglas, Utah, is a regimental
post having ample accommodations for
1900 men while Boise barracks is

for 400 men.
Second-We find that Boise barracks
had not been occupied for some time

TWO BANKS CONSOLIDATE
New Proposed Institution Buys Into
German State Bank.

Cottonwood is not to have a third
banking institution
1t was announced last week through
these columns that the charter for the
Cottonwood State Bank had been filed
with the county auditor at Grangeville
and that the new institution would
open its doors in due course of time,
but this week E. M Ehrphardt, presi
dent of the Empire National Bank at
Lewiston, and the moving spirit behind
the proposed new institution, visited
our city and after conference with
the directors of the German State Bank
consolidation of the two institutions
was affected. This will naturally re-
suit in some change in the officers ami
directorate of the bank, which will
widen its scope of operation, while de-
tracing in no wav from its former use
fulness and stability.
It is still too soon to give any details
of the consolidation but we will be in
position next week to give full partic-
ulars and the list of officers and
directors of the institution in detail
