Hest chosen, Judge Woodson, of Missouri
never came to the territory at all. Justice
Parks is still living at Kansas City.
Some OF the territorial justices were
prominently identified with the people of the
young commonwealth and had distinguished
careers as ldahoans. Such men were Mil.

ter John T. Morgan James B. Hays, father
of our present mayor, James II. Beatty and

DISTRICT COURTS.
Referring once more to Justice Cummins'
rare first edition of Idaho reports, we find
among its preliminary pages schedule OF
Times and Places OF Holding the District
Courts 1t may be matter of antiquarian
interest to geographers OF the younger set to
know what centers of population in the year
of our Lord, 1867, were considered Of sui
ficient Importance to be dignified by sittings
OF the Idaho district courts. These places
were Lewiston, Leesburg, Idaho City.
Rocky Bar, Boise City, Silver City and
Malad City.
The territorial supreme court adjourned
sine die on March 5, 1890, Idaho being adj
mitted as state on the Sd OF July, 1890.
During the quarter century OF its existence
it handed down opinions in 283 cases, an
average of about II cases year. But it will
be borne in mind that these judges tried all
the cases in the district courts, as we'll as
those appealed to the supreme court, and
when we consider the great distances they
had to travel and the primitive means OF
communication in those days it is apparent
that their positions were not sinecures.
A serious defect of the territorial judicial
system was that the same persons served
both as district court judges and supreme
court Justices SO that the latter passed on
their own decisions as district judges when
appeals were taken therefrom. The state

constitution created supreme court with
the same number Of judges and receiving
the same salary as the territorial supreme
court, but the new justices were relieved
from their labors as district judges, and the
state was divided into five judicial districts
In the past two years alone the supreme
court OF this state has disposed OF just about
as many cases as were disposed of during
the whole period OF Idaho's territorial stat
us extending over q years. Yet the num-
Der of justices upon whom devolve the dr-
ties of this court is the same today as it was
when President Lincoln appointed its first
members, almost 81 years ago
On the other hand the number of judicial

APPOINTED BY LINCOLN.

President Lincoln appointed the members
of the first supreme court OF Idaho. They
were Sidney Edgerton, of Ohio, chief JUS
tice Aleck c. Smith, of Washington terri
tory, and Samuel c. Parks, of Illinois, as
sociate justices. But, although these APP
pointments were made on March 10, 1868,
the first record of the converting Of the JUS
tees as a supreme court is dated Aug. |,
1864, and it does not appear that any su-
preme court business except the appoint
mcnt of clerk was transacted until the
January term, 1866. Even then but one OF
the justices, Milton Kelly, was present at
the state capital which by that time had
been moved from Lewiston to Boise, 50
that the court was adjourned until the first
Monday Of the May following. 1t really
began business on May 81, 1866
The territorial judges were appointed by
the president for terms of four years. FROM
first to last nearly 80 of them were named,
as some served for only short periods. The
first chief justice, Sidney Edgerton, never
sat in Idaho in that capacity, as he was as
signed by the governor to the Third district,
which was soon after incorporated in the
territory Of Montana. Another OF the ear

CASES ARGUED AND ADJUDGED
THE SUPREME COURT
OF
THE TERRITORY OF IDAHO
JANUARY TERN, 1866
AND
JANUARY AND AUGUST TERMS, 1867
REPORTED BY
JOHN CUMMINS
Associate Justice OF the Supreme Court
Further examination shows that the vol
ume contains the first % opinions Of the ter
ritorial supreme court, and in addition SIX
decisions of the district courts.
The reporter, Justice Cummins, quantity
begins his preface to this volume in the fol-
lowing language
THE business of the supreme court not
accumulating with a great deal of rapiditv,
it is deemed best to give the profession in
this form the decisions of this court, the ma
terial parts OF the brief of attorneys, and
such other matter as properly pertains to
reports of law"
By the ninth section Of the organic act
of Idaho territory, approved March 3, 1865,
the territory was divided into three judicia,
districts, the judges of which were also TO
constitute territorial supreme court, which
required to hold at least one term eacn
year at the capital OF the territory 1t is
interesting to note from Justice Cummins'
preface that the Third district was original
ly composed Of counties which at the next
session of congress were erected into the
territory of Montana

BAD ROAD INSPIRES
GOOD POETIC EFFORT

Poets are born, not made, so
the story goes, but occasionally
events occur that bring out lat
ent talent that produces some-
thing really worth while from an
unexpected source, reports the
Newberg Graphic.
On Tuesday while Roy Ham
vile, mail carrier on route No 2
was coming down Parrott Mt. in
mud half hub deep, occasioned
by the continued rains, he was
wondering, he says, how peo-
pie were able to get up the grade
when he was having 1t hard
enough in getting down, when
on making a turn in the road he
came face to face with the fol-
lowing effusion which was post
ed on a tree:
This road is impassable-
Not even Jackassable;
II you want to travel il,
You must gravel it."

THE RIGHT SPIRIT

Albany, Oregon, May 20, 1917.
Editor Leader:
Toledo, Oregon.
Dear Sir:
| feel so impressed with nv
recent visit to Toledo and New
port, and the proposal to have
Lincoln county raise $400 900
to match 100000 of the Gov
ernment in the development of
Yaquina harbor, that | feel I
must express my appreciation
or such n fine spirit. The move
ment that has been proposed Is
one, in my judgment, of great
Importance. All the people that
live in Lincoln county ought to
esteem 1t privilege and a duty
to lend a helping hand to this
great movement. There Is no
way In which Toledo and New
port can put themselves on the
map so effectively as by carry
ing this movement thru to a tri-
umphant conclusion. The two
communities should work har-
moniously as a unit on the prom
osition. What affects one fay-
orably, affects the other to equal
advantage. There is no room
Tor distrust, or jealousy, or fear.
Each community will be bene-
fitted and the benefit of the va
quina region means such a large
benefit to Benton and Linn
counties, that each of these
counties really ought to be in
movement.
Let the slogan be, "Put the
Port in Newport" and Put the
Lead in Toledo" (or If you pre-
fer, Put the dough in Toledo.~
With sincere congratulations
to the people in Lincoln County
who have put thru this move
ment, and earnest hopes for the
successful fruition of the same
in the near future, remain,
Yours cordially.

President, Albany College.

MANY PAPERS
WILL BE AFFECTED

1t is feared that the new postal
rate, which the government con-
templates, will force many of
the weaker newspapers and per-
iodicals out of business. TIL,
new rate will be on a zone sys-
tenn, and affects the subscriber
as well as the publisher, as when
a paper suspends publication the
subscriber not only loses his pa
per but the money he paid for
same.

LARGE GAINS IN
HOG PRODUCTION

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Dec. 24.-Indi.
ana will 60 "over the top" in the 1918
hog production campaign, figures COM
piled today by the Extension Depart
ment of Purdue University as result
Of the recent campaign throughout
the state, show. The increase next
year will be 81 percent over 1917, &C
cording to conservative estimates
made from reports from the seventy
four leading hog producing counties in
the state. The promised increase is
one percent more than was asked by
the United State Department of Agri-
culture.
Practically 5000 Indiana farmers
promised at the production meetings
last month to keep one or more gifts
extra In their herds this winter. These
extra gifts are expected to bring about
the increased production next spring
Prof. j. w. Schwab, who has been in
charge, said the campaign would be
made permanent In the state.

Too Bad! Turkeys
Fail TO Arrive at

FRANCE. Monday Dec. 24.-The
great bulk of the American expedi-

Christmas dinner. The submarine at
tack which forced the ship which was
carrying cranberries to turn back, and
through some unknown circumstances
two ships which were carryin the sup
plies of turkey left the United States
so late that it was impossible for them
to arrive in France in time. The tur-
keys which already have arrived in
the army zone were left over from
Thanksgiving and will go an extremely
short way.
The quartermaster's corps is busy
trying to procure a substitute, but the
army is really disappointed, for turkey
at Christmas had been looked forward
to by virtually every member OF the
command. The quartermaster had
made careful preparations, but his
calculations went wrong
Now it appears that the principal
dish Of the day will be monkey tur-
key" which is ordinarily canned corn
ed beef.
