\. c. DICKINSON is
MAKING GOOD IMPRESSION

\. c. Dickinson of Tekoa. demo
cratic candidate for sheriff. was in
Pullman this week and made very
favorable impression by his quiet de-
termined manner and clear cut
pledges. He is the son of J. w.
Dickinson, a pioneer of Whitman
county and a brother of Grant Dick
Inson, who made such a fine record
as deputy sheriff under Brooks Mac
Kay and later was killed while brave
" discharging his duty as city mar
shall of Tekoa.
Mr. Dickinson Is a veteran of the
Spanish-American war, having enlist
ed and served three years in the
Fifth infantry regiment of the regu-
lar army. He took part in two years
OF fighting in the Philippines. For
the past five years he has been city
marshal of Tckoa, in which position
he has made splendid record. He
says that he wants to win on his
merits, if he wins, and is discourag-
ing any mud singing at his oppon-
ent. lie promises, il elected, to hold
down the expenses of the sheriff's
Office TO minimum and to enforce
the law without fear or favor and al
so states he will insist that his depu-
ties devote all their time and atten-
tton to county york, instead of de-
voting part of it to running political
campaigns.

|. Soon after taking office took
up with the express companies of the
state the question of delivering liquor
on assigned permits and was able to
have them discontinue the practice,
the same thing was later done in
other counties of the state.
2 | gave an opinion in June,
1917, that held county auditors could
issue no more liquor permits under
the. Reed law. This county and one
other county of the state were the
only ones that did not open their
doors again for permits during
short period in July, 1917, when the
liquor law was being debated.
3. have given several other opn-
ions along the same line, which have
helped to keep down to a minimum
the use of intoxicating liquor.
4. In 1917, | brought 80 cases in
justice courts for violating our pro-
hibiton law and obtained &c convic-
tons | have no record to date of
cases in justice courts for 1918. but
there are many. In 1917 | brought
six cases in the superior court for
liquor law violations and all were
convicted, and to date, in 1918,
have brought in the superior court
Il cases and have obtained 10 con-
victions and one case still pending.
s. The justice cases for liquor law
violations for 1917 brought into the
treasurer $735; and superior court
cases for 1917. $3.50; and superior
court cases for 1918, to date, $725;
making a total of fines of $2410.
In conclusion | will say that from
my observation of the workings of
the prohibition law it has been a sue
cess and that it will be a greater sue
cess when our state bone dry law is
carried by the people at the poles on
November 5, and ! intend to do what
can TO see that it is fayorably acted
upon at that time

Teach Army BacterioIoqy.

The president OF Idaho university

lishment of the s. A. T. c. the war
department proposes to provide not

fessional school students. but for the
intellectual training as well.
In order that third and fourth year
students may prepare to enter the
army in either the medical or sani-
tary corps, the division of medicine
of the national research council has
prepared notifications of courses in
bacteriology which may be offered
These notifications have been in
dorsed by the office of the surgeon
general of the army. The modified
courses, as submitted to the depart.
ment of bacteriology of the Univer-
sity of Idaho, place special emphasis
on the thorough drilling of the stu
dents in the fundamental technical
procedure, leading up to more spe-
cialized work as the principles of
seriology as used in diagnosis, prac-
teal experience in the simpler reac-
tons, such as typhoid agglutination
tests. and standard archaeological
examination of water and milk.
Dr.. John j. Putnam, professor of
bacteriology at the University OF
Idaho, has outlined and is prepared
to give to all students who offer the
proped credentials a strong course
that comedies in every particular

the national research council, special
emphasis being placed on laboratory
work in order that the student may
become well versed in the fundamen
tai practices of the science.

Scrub Bulls Must Disappear.

Benewah County Agricultural Agent
Rockwell says that the farmers of his
county are organizing bull associa-
tons. The Idaho registered bull law
is now in effect. He says:
''All scrub bulls must be taken off
the public range. and all who have
cows running at large must own or
have an interest in a purebred regis
tered bull. This is the essence of the
new Idaho law, which took effect on
September Z.
This law is highly welcomed by
progressive Idaho farmers, since ii
affords them an opportunity to i'm
prove their stock without interference
from scrub bulls running at large
Better stock means higher prices and
more profits. Hence in a few years
the law will prove very beneficial to
al lconcerned. Indians as well as
whites are amenable to the new law
and, of course, will benefit likewise
THE Benewah county farm bureau
in cooperation with the extension ser
vice of the University of Idaho, is ia
king advantage of this opportunity tC
organize the farmers into purebreC
bull associations for the purpose Of
buying and owning community bulls.

Pigeons Trained as MESSENGERS.

Pigeon training has become an inter
esting as we'll as valuable activity in
the new army of the United States
Pigeon lofts are maintained at many of
the army camps and aviation fields
throughout the country. Each loft is
numbered just as every air squadron
and every regiment of infantry, cav
airy and artillery is numbered. The
birds are given a course of training
just as are human recruits in the regu-
lar establishment. When the training
of these young pigeons is completed
they go overseas, the same as the sol
diers. A white flag is the signal most
commonly used for training these mes
senger birds. To help the pigeons rec
ognize their cotes the latter are paint
ed in yellow and white stripes. No
matter where a pigeon is taken from
or in what direction, it will not alight
on any building except its own loft,
which means of course that wherever
the pigeons are moved, the loft from
which they we're trained goes with
them. 1t is only recently that the use
of pigeons as messengers has ben at
tempted from aeroplanes. The birds
when used for this purpose are carried
in baskets in the fuselage and great
care must be exercised in releasing
them.

NAVY WILL GET 1900 MONTHLY
Plan for Securing Recruits Is Outlined
BY Secretary Daniels.

Washington, ID. C.-The program
under which the MY and the marine
corps will secure men hereafter need
ed was announced this week by Sec
rotary Daniels after confeences with
representatives of his department, the
marine corps and the provost marshal
generals office. The navy is to have
an average of $4,000 men monthly,
while the marine corps will get 5000
monthly for four months and 1900
each month thereafter.
OF the navy's allotment of $4,000 it
may enlist or enroll men who have
special qualifications for certain navy
work, but the remainder will come
from the run of the draft" navy Of
ficials cutting out skilled men to meet
as far as possible the special needs
of the service
Men who now hold or may hereaf-
ter be given deferred classification
on account of dependency will be per-
mitted to enlist in the navy. as the
higher pay given is expected to do
away with the possibility of hardships
to the dependents. Those who have
had previous service in the navy also
will be permitted to reenlist. In no
case, however, not even from the
draft, will the navy accept men who
can not read, write and speak the
English language, nor will it accept
men not citizens of the United States
or conscientious directors.
Almost the same system will be
followed in enlisting men both in the
navy and marine corps.
