ADMINISTRATION
BILL CONSIDERED
GOVERNOR DAVIS RECOMMEND
ATIONS FOR CONSOLIDATION
MEETS OPPOSITION

| BOISE.-Passag of the admins
tration bill asking for centraliza-
ton of departments is the big thing
that republican legislators now have
to wrestle with This week will prob
ably tell the tale of the passage of
the measure
With Governor Davis urging the
principle of the bill as necessary
change in the government of the state
the political aspect of the measure
has not been lost sight of by the re-
publicans in the two houses.
They must, they feel, do what the
head of their organization feels is
the best thing to do. Some of them,
however, are more or less disturbed
They do not like radical changes in
the fact of what the party must do
in the legislature. But nevertheless
they all seem to agree that change
in the conduct of the state depart
ments is necessary whether now or
two years from now.
1T took courage for Governor
Davis to insist on passing this bill"
said a leader in the senate. "He knows
we must face hard financial situa-
ton; must change the primary law
and that the party is on trial. Still
he asks US to tackle this big thing.
| am going to give him my earnest
support and rise or fall with the
record that is made by my party and
its leader"
1t is believed here that the bill will
face considerable opposition but that
it will finally pass.

help to diminish any unemployment
that may temporarily result from de-
mobilization and the shifting of war
workers.
Not only will your necessary public
works employ workers in your local
ity, but they will help to steady the
employment of workers now engaged
in producing the materials required,
and they will also enable the indus
tries producing such materials to en-
ploy additional workers from among
returning soldiers and munition
workers. Consequently the benefits of
any necessary public works done by
your coounty during period of I'M

GRADUATE NURSES
FOR IDAHO SCHOOLS
BILL INTRODUCED IN LEGISLA-
TURE PROVIDES PROTECTION
FOR CHILDREN

BOISE-The following is the copy
of an act introduced in the Idaho leg
islature known as house bill No. Il
by Representative Tyer of Ada coun-
| ty seeking to give better care tc
children in the schools:
''Be. it enacted by the Legislature
of the state of Idaho:
"Section 1. The board of county
commissioners of any county is au-
thorized and empowered to employ a
graduate trained nurse or nurses
whose duties shall be as follows. To
act as consulting expert on hygiene
for all schools not already having
medical inspection either by physician
or visiting nurse; to assist in the
care of the poor in the county who
are in need of such services; to give
instruction to tuberculosis patients
and others relative to hygiene meas
ures to be observed in preventing the
spread of tuberculosis; to aid in max
ing report of existing cases of tub
erculosis; to act as visiting nurse
throughout the county; to hold clinics;
in cooperation with the juvenile court
to look after child welfare work in
the county and to perform such other
duties as nurse and hygienic expert
as may be assigned by the county
board. Every such visiting nurse
shall at the end of each month make
a report in writing to the county
commissioners, which report shall
show the visits made during the
month then ending, clinics held, as
sistance rendered and the requests
made for such services and such other
information as the county board may
from time to time require.
ssSec. 2. The salary of any such
nurse or nurses shall be fixed by said
board of county commissioners, who
may make appropriation for the same
out of the general tax fund of the
county or out of other available funds
not otherwise appropriated.

BOOTHS BILL IS
OPPOSED AT BOISE
WOULD ASSESS ELECTRIC POW
Err PLANTS ON ELECTRICITY
THEY PRODUCE

BOISE.-Not only the Legislators
who have commented on the measure
but among the farmers and business
men of this part of the state almost
instant opposition was created on the
bill Of Senator Booth which made its
appearance in the upper house Friday.
The bill provides that taxation Of
electric plants should be determined
by the amount of power which the
plant is capable of generating and
shall assess the same on the basis of
the value of the power developed, gen
Grated and used or capable of develop
ment and use."
"The source of the measure instant
ly recognized. 1t is aimed at the
electric power companies of the state
and is a reflection of the fight that
certain organization is making
against these companies. But that is
not what makes the difference with
me-" said one of the progressive leg
islators.
at is the principal involved in the
measure. Even assuming that the
law would not stand the test. What
the makers of the bill wish to do is
one of the signs of the time, they
would rule or ruin
eff such bill should become a law,
then class prejudice will receive
great boost. If impractical legislation
such as this even gets minor support
it tends to stir up feeling that we
cannot afford to have at this time.
"The main opposition which comes
from the farming element, hinges on
yet another feature of the bill. They
point out that if taxation of unused
resources is allowed that every farmer
who does not farm his piece of land to
the full limit of its capabilities is
liable to have his taxes raised. Mines
that are not developed would have
to pay taxes and there would be no
end to the things that might be
brought in under the law"
1t is recognized by business men
hat lack of capital in business en-
,erprises often handicaps the develop
nent of unused resources andfitsis a
principle of business and business JUS
ice to give owners an opportunity to
levelop property when they can, with
,ut confiscating it with taxes, is the
rev taken by another legislator.

Mr.. Moore REPLIES.

Editor Star-Mirror: From a letter
published in your paper of the 25tt
inst. | conclude that our prosecuting
attorney Cor at least the party who
wrote the letter. is some what ex-
ercised over, 'Who is Mary H. John
ston 2"
The suggestion that l have been
writing under that name is very far
afield, and could originate only in the
fertile imagination of great detec-
tive.
1 am interested only in explaining
to her and to the public that had
nothing to do with the disposition of
the case, of which she complained.
And l did feel that she as citizen had
reason for complaint.
Our prosecuting attorney Cor who
ever wrote his letter. does not treat
Mary H. Johnston fairly. He charges
her, with keeping in the dark, when
she had information in her possession
which would have strengthened the
States case against Culbertson. AS
I remember it, she only stated the con-
clusion she arrived at from the testi-
mony taken in the preliminary ex-
animation in the Probate Court, and
upon which Judge Nelson bound
Culbertson over for trial in the Dis
trict Court
Our prosecuting attorney Cor who
ever wrote his letter. says that, with
the evidence as I left it he deemed it
best to close the case as he did.
The evidence of Nora Tanghe, the
girl assaulted by Cu1bertson, cor
roborated by the testimony of her
mother was sufficient to bind gilbert
son over and I had filed an informa-
ton in the District Court and had in
dorsed thereon the names of four 9TH
er witnesses who would corroborate
Nora Tanghe in every particular ex-
cept as to what took place when she,
Nora, and Culbertson were alone in
his house.
Because of the epidemic of influ-
enza, Judge Steele was not able to
convene the regular fall term of the
District Court for 1918 and all Of the
attorney that am and that he knows
have tried of necessity went over in

HEAD HUNTER IN
AMERICAN ARMY
Moro Entertains Hospital Pa
tents With Wild Songs and
Curious Chants.
HAS five BAY0NET WOUNDS
Astonlsf1es Doctors by Rapid Recovery
From Injuries Received While
Fighting in Ranks Of Yankees
Has Remarkable Record.

PariS.-The most remarkable pa
tient in Base Hospital No. 35 is q
Moro Head-Hunter, who turned up In
France six months ago with a com
pany of American soldiers who had
just come from the Philippine Islands
His name is recorded as PhilipO Mo
reno, and his home as the Philippine
Islands. No one suspected him of hav-
ing remarkable record until his story
came out one day after chance meet
ing with the colonel In charge of the
base hospital to which he was taken
from the front. And this is how 1t
happened:
A Red Cross searcher hearing of q
man suffering from five bayonet
wounds who had just been brought
into Base Hospital No. 35, hurried to
his bedside with fruit and an offer
to send home any messages he might
wish delivered. The man, unusually
big and dark, accepted the fruit CRATE
fully, but assured her that he would
be well enough himself to write soon
to his sister, his only living relative.
Sings Weird Songs.
And he kept his word in spite OF
the five bayonet wounds which healed
so rapidly that all the doctors Of the
hospital marveled at the remarkable
constitution of the dark-skinned man.
The patient was soon c0nvafescent,
and the first place he visited was the
Red Cross recreation hut. Some one
was playing the piano, as usual, and
during the afternoon one OF the MEM
bers of the sanitary corps sang one OF
Burley's negro songs, deep River"
Philipo offered to sing the song In the
original and astounded his audience
with a weird version full Of minor
notes and harmonies that made shiv-
ers run up and down susceptible
backs.
And thereafter the Filipino insisted
on entertaining gatherings In the rec
reation hut each afternoon with wild
songs and curious chants and recita-
lions. Some of these were very spicy
tales indeed Of the underworld and its
lenizens, and finally the Moro waxed
and began telling tales
IF the wilds Of the Philippine Islands
and the days when he had hunted
heads.

The colonel Of the hospital, attract

dropped in one afternoon to listen.

Just then the Filipino came up and
