Farm progress during April was
slow, due to the backward spring.
Every effort was made to speed up
farm work and increase acreages due
to shortage of food and feed. Rapid
progress was made in shearing sheep
and in some localities lambing was
well advanced. All livestock is very
thin, owing to lack of hay and poor
pasture. AS streams are running
high there is good prospect for wild
hay where the valley meadows must
be flooded in the spring. Nevada farm
ers are trying to do their bit in aug
menting the worlds food supply by
planting every acre possible to spring
grains and garden vegetables. Prepa-
ration of the land for planting beets
for Fallon's rejuvenated sugar fac
tory has progressed nicely during
April. EDWARD c. PAXTON,
Field Agent for Nevada.

CASTLE THINKS GUARD
! WILL BE CALLED SOON

Although he left Washington before
the trouble over the Hawaiian Ma
tienal Guard came to head, w. r..
Castle, who with Mrs. Castle and Miss
Beatrice Castle, has returned from a
three months trip to the mainland, re-
ports that when he was at the nation
al capital he understood that the
guard was to be called into service to
take the place of the regulars which
would eventually be called away from
Hawaii.
Mr.. Castle says that all the depart
ments at Washington have more work
than they can attend to. The question
of expenditures is also causing con-
siderable comment and may result in
a congressional probe, he says. When
he visited the attorney general Mr..
Castle says Re closed up like clam,
the presumption being that he did not
wish to hear any criticism against any
of the local office holders.
While in Washington Mr.. Castle
visited his son, w. R. Castle, Jr., who
is in charge of the bureau of the Red
Cross for the listing of casualties
among the American soldiers in
Europe. He says the government has
taken over large amount of the Red
Cross work with the result that it is
behind.
At Pensacola, Florida, Mr.. Castle
saw Alan Lowrey and Stanley Ken
nedy, who are attached to the avia.
ton section. Both are getting alons

yanced to chief Of the entire student

Tells STORY OF
PAROLE.bREAKING
BY GERMAN HERE
Hindu Witness in San Francisco
Trial Says Officer Joined
Maverick at HiIo

That an officer from a German YES
sci interned at Honolulu broke parole
and went to Hilo to join the mystery
vessel Maverick was stated on the
witness stand in the San Francisco
India Case" trial by Hindu witness,
according to the San Francisco Bulle-
tin of December IS. The Bulletin 5
article states:
"Charred fragments Of revolution
airy literature, recovered from the
barren shores OF SoCorro Island of
the coast of Lower California, were
introduced this morning while
Harcharan Das, government witness,
recounted the eventful cruise OF the
steamer Maverick. The pamphlets
inciting Hindus to rebellion were
heaped in piles and burned when the
proximity of the United States war
ship alarmed the Mavericks crew, &C
cording to the witness.
Attorney Theodore Roche for the
defense, attacked statements OF the
Hindu during his cross-examination.
Das denied he had discussed testi-
mony with other government wit
nesses. He declared he bore the de-
PENDANTS no ill-will but wished to
tell his countrymen they were being
deceived by revolutionary leaders.
The adventures of the Hindus and
Germans on board the Maverick AMI
the voyage across the Pacific to Java
formed interesting portions Of Das'
testimony.
Failed to Meet Ship
Failure to meet the schooner Annie
Larsen at Sicorro Island, where the
transfer of arms and ammunition was
to have been made, according to the
prosecution, caused the plan of the
Hindu plotters to 60 astray.
After waiting more than one month
at the barren island for the arrival Of
the schooner the officers of the Nave
rick decided to put back into San Die
60, the witness explained. Upon ap-
preaching the Coronado Islands, he
said, the presence of warships occa'
stoned a change in the plans and a
new course was made for Hawaii.
"Hilo, an island in the Hawaiian
group, was the next spot touched at
by the steamer, Das said. Here fresh
supplies of meat were taken on board.
The Hindu also declared that an OF.
ficer from a German vessel interned
at Honolulu also became a member Of
the crew.
From Hilo the cruise stretched to
Johnson Island, where another stop
was made, and quantities of birds
eggs were collected for food.
The journey was then uninter-
rupted until Java was reached several
weeks later, landing being made on
the coast eighty miles from Batavia.
Das told the court that two Dutch gun
boats were on hand to greet them. He
said that the Maverick was boarded
by officials of the Dutch government
who had been informed Of the alleged
plot to incite rebellion in India by
British officials. Under surveillance
of the Dutch man-of-war, the Maverick
continued to Batavia, where 1t was
again SUI yected to thorough search. I"

CAPT. PEPIN TO
LEAVE ISLANDS

Capt. Louis D. Pepin, officer in
charge of militia affairs, who has also
had charge of arrangements for the
training camp to open soon at Scho'
field Barracks, has been ordered to
duty at Sandy Hook, New York. He
will sail early is January.
Capt. Pepin is one of the best
known officers in the Hawaiian de.
partment. He came here in January
of 1915 in the same boat that brought
Gen. Wiser first to the department,
and was stationed for six months al
Fort Kamehameba. In June of 1915
he was transferred to Fort De Russy,
where he has been ever since.
Prominent in athletic events among
the men of the posts, especially in pro
noting football and swimming, he has
cone in close touch with many men Of
the service and with many civilians
as well.
81 am very sorry to co. said Capt
Pepin today. AT any other time l
would make a request to stay, but I'M

not feel that l could do So"

Every soldier and every child at the
entertainment received present.
The latter received toys Of all sorts,
building blocks, canes, horses. auto
mobiles and dolls. From the children
Of officers to the children Of the post
servants, not single one was neg

After the gifts were distributed a
number OF Christmas carols were

twelve enlisted men. and the Holy
City" was sung by Corporal Wilson
of Company NJ, supported by the quar-
tet. These were followed by eight
reels Of movies, featuring Anita Stew

Then came one of the prettiest fea-
lures Of the whole evening. At 1G
o'clock Chaplain Winter loaded the
triple quartet into a big truck and a
round of the post for carol singing
was made. The whole post from the
1st Infantry to the 25th Infantry and
back again was covered.

ROTARY ARRIVES AND LINE OPEN
Service Is Again Resumed After a
Period of Eight Days.

After blockade lasting eight days,
the high line was finally opened late
last night and this morning the passen-
ger train left for Lewiston ON schedule
time. The last train in Grangeville was
week ago yesterday, the morning train
being unable to get out and while there
has been continuous fight against the
elements since, nothing could be accom-
plished that was worth while until the
arrival of the rotary yesterday. The
ordinary push plows have been in use
on this end of the line and also
number of showers, but the cuts were
drifted so full and the snow so compact
no Roadway could be made. The Rus
sell plow, the much-heralded wonder
which arrived direct from the east, did
not succeed in breaking through the
mass and it was then the company or
dered the rotary. The rotary bored
through the last drift Wednesday night
and arrived in time for the crew to take
supper in Grangeville.
Later in the evening the crew went
to work widening the cuts so that this
morning the regular was able to get out
on time and now service ID again resum-
ed and let us hope not to be interrupted

are leaving nothing undone to make all
of the patrons have the time of their
lives so it is up to citizens of Grange,
vile to plan on attending whether you
dance or not and show the boys that
you are behind them at all times. The

FAVOR PUMP GUN.

The new law that was proposed pro.
hibiting the use of the pump gun in
hunting migratory birds in Idaho has
caused quite protest on the part of
the sportsmen of North Idaho who are
of the opinion that it would be better
to use the pump gun on migratory birds
than on our native game birds for the
reason that very few migratory birds
are reared i'll this state and that it
would be of little or no protection for
them to prohibit the use of the pump
gun in one state and not in the other
states.
The sportsmen of this section feel
that it would afford more protection to
the feathered friends to cut the bag
it is enforced than to try and eliminate
the use of one style Of gun.
The sportsmen Of North Idaho have
proposed law that would be of great
advantage to the county and in a great
way eliminate politics from the game
department and their plan is as follows:
That the County Commissioners of each
county be empowered to appoint game
commission of three sportsmen from the
county and allow this commission to
select the game warden with their con
sent. That 80 per cent of the revenues
derived from the sale of resident
licenses go to the county and 90 per
cent of the amount derived from sale
of nonresident licenses go to the
county and the rest be turned over to
the state.
Idaho county license sales amount to
about $4,000 every two years and of this
amount $2400 would be turned over to
the county to be expended as this com
mittee desired.
The committee to be selected from
the various parts of the county by the
county commissioners and to serve with
out pay except actual travelling ex-
penses.-Contributed

WOULD CHANGE SEASON ON ELK.

An effort is being made by the sports.
men of this section to have the open
season ON elk changed from November
to September Goth to October Goth in
order that the sportsmen of this state
may be able to get into the Selway sec
tion at the same time that the Montan 4
sportsmen are hunting in that section
and in this manner hope to be able to
cause the sale of a large number of
non-resident licenses. The change
would also be of big benefit as the
meat would be in much better condi-
tion during the new season than it
is during the month of November.
Under the present close season there
are large numbers of elk killed each
season in Jne Selway section by non
resident hunters who come into that sec
tion from the Montana side and who
enjoy some of the best hunting in the
west and are able to do so without even
buying a resident license as it is diff
ficult matter to secure the arrest of
any parties in that section for the rea'
son that there are so few Idaho hun
ters in that section that it is not very
hard matter to keep track of them and
avoid them while in Idaho territory. 1t
is the hopes of the Idaho sportsmen to
put an end to the poaching of the hun,
ters of neighboring states and they are
willing to do almost anything to ac'
complish that end.
The Middlefork country is without
doubt one of the best game countries
in Idaho and since the elk have been
enjoying a close season there has been
very little hunting in that section by
parties for this state and consequently
the visiting sportsmen have found very
little opposition to their poaching.
