INTERNATIONAL
 EGG CONTEST

In the fiftieth week of the egg lay ing contest at Storrs two records which have been held during the pre- ceding contests have been broken. In the first place the "Oregons" from the Oregon Agricultural College at Corvallis have now passed the yearly pen record of 2265 eggs held by Obe c. Knights pen and have total oE 2278 eggs. Not only this, but the "Oregons" have two more weeks in which to increase this number. In the second place the 195 bird owned by Obed G. Knight of Bridgeton, R. l., has laid 297 eggs to date. This is II eggs more than any hen has ever produced in the past contests. A the rate that this bird is laying it year should be considerably over 300 eggs.
 The total production for the week was 1897 eggs or 2S.5 per cent. Of this per cent. the heavy breeds laid 17.5 per cent, the light breeds laying only II per cent. Putting this in an other way we might say that of the 1897 eggs, 61.4 per cent. of these were laid by the heavy breeds and 3S.6 per cent. of them were laid by the light breeds.
 Pen entered by Richard Allen won the honors for the week with 51 eggs. Pen 53. the "Oregons," won second place with 4S eggs. Pen St owned by J. Frank Dubois was third with Al eggs. Pen 20 owned by Obed G. Knight and pen 25 owned by Woodland Poultry Yards were tied for 4th place with a production of SC eggs. During the fiftieth week Of the contest 5O3 birds failed to pro duct an egg. Of the 1000 birds in the contest only five had perfect scores during the week.

|. v. v. RECORDS
FOUND IN CABIN
STRONG EVIDENCE SECURED
AGAINST KOPP, SECRETARY
AT ST. MARIES

Records of the ST. Maries |. w. w.
local, hidden in the ceiling of a cabin
six miles from town, were found by
a detail of Idaho national guardsmeIl
last week after George Kopp, secre-
tary, had denied their existence.
Kopp was arrested by men under
Captain H. H. Taylor. He had been
acting as secretary of the ST. Maries
I. w. w. since the arrest of Nelson,
convicted of criminal syndicalism in
Coeur d'Alene last week. When ques
toned he denied he had the organi
zation records, but a detail of men
under Sergeant Charles Spoor found
a quantity of receipts, reports and
other records after search of Kopp's
cabin at Blackwell landing.
Among the correspondence found
were letters from George Wander
veere, attorney for the I. w. W. on
trial in Chicago, making inquiries in
regard to evidence against the or
ganization and the whereabouts of
witnesses.
Kept in Jail
Kopp and Is other wobblies are
held in Jail in st. Maries. 1t was
decided to take photographs and
finger prints of the men and when
ordered out of the Jail five of them
refused and had to be carried out
of the building by force. They pro
tested vehemently against appearing
before a camera.
"Some of the men we have in GUS
tody are organizers of the worst
stripe," said Captain Taylor, who was
in Spokane today on his way to St.
Maries. "Some of them have already
been bound over on syndicalism
charges and others are to be ar
raigned the coming week.
"Only 16 of the guardsmen are left
in ST. Maries. They will be held
there indefinitely. Adjutant General
Moody is in Wallace and is under
orders from Governor Alexander to
make his headquarters there until the
governor returns from Washington,
D. c., where he is at present"

IDAHO j WINS
FROM WHITMAN
DEBATE TEAM
IN DUAL DEBATE WITH WHIT
MAN COLLEGE UNIVERSITY
WINS AND LOSES
LOSES At WALLA WAL[A
EVEN BREAK ON LAST NIGHTS
CONTEST, EACH SCHOOL
WINNING AT HOME

Idaho and Whitman divided last
nights dual debate on the question
of the adoption after the war of the
program of the American League to
Enforce Peace, home teams defend
ing the affirmative winning both in
the university auditorium and at
Walla Walla.
The debate held on the university
campus was characterized by the
clarity with which each issue was
presented and met and was perhaps
featured by the vigorous effective
ness of Miss Dorothy Forch of the
varsity team.
Alvin Denman, who gave the open
ing Idaho address, outlined the sew
eral advantageous proposals of the
leagues PLAN and demonstrated the
means, both economic and military,
by which recalcitrant nations might
be brought back to paths of justice
and sanity.
Orvill Douglas, Whitman's first
ions of the plan marked no improve
ment over machinery already in use
by the Hague tribunal and posted
that mere moral suasion would not
suffice to make the nation members
of the league act in concert.
Miss Dorothy Forch, who closed the
alternatives constructive case, stat
ed that the leagues plan was not an
end in itself but only a highly de-
sirable step in the direction Of in
evitable internationalism. She also
stressed what she characterized the
leagues tendency in the direction of
stabilizing Of democracy.
Whitman's closing speaker, Marion
Dickie, a freshman possessing a
pleasingly direct delivery, challenged
the definiteness of certain state
ments made by world figures anent
the leagues program, asserting that
President Wilson in particular had
never specifically endorsed the plan.
He pointed to several dangers which
he said the adoption of the plan would
involve, among them increased arma-
ments and the vitation of the right of
a great power to support weaker
nation.
The short rebuttal speeches were
marked by re-itemization and recon
clusion of arguments already adj
vanced. Miss Forch scored with an
insistence that the negative case was
signally weak in that it failed to
proffer a substitute remedy.
The decision of the three judges |
was unanimously in favor Of Idaho.

BARRE K. OF c. MUST PAY
For Being Defeated by Their Montpelier
Brothers in Tournament.

| For the first time in the three annual
! tournaments which have been waged by
the Knights of Columbus councils of
Barre and Montpelier, the local knights
are on the losing end at the close of play.
The final match was staged in Mont
pelier last evening, and when the scoring
was done il was disclosed that the Mont
pelier council led in the seasons totals
by two points. Eight meetings, the first
taking place in November, have been
held, the two councils alternating be-
tween Barre and Montpelier each week
except for an interval of two weeks
around the holidays. This year the play
ing has been marked by a slump on the
part of the Barre crihbage players, and
corresponding bracing-up among the
Montpelier card players. On the other
hand, the pool playing of the local
knights has improved considerably. and a
margin of only two points = the two
points that spelled victory for the
knights at the capital - separated the
councils Last night Montpelier won four
of the six cribbage matches, and Barre
took two out of three pool matches
"A forfeit in the form of supper is to
be paid by the members of the Barre
council teams, and it is expected that the |
will take place in this city /
