Allen was adjudged guilty of misap-

that time he has been given every con-

bestow upon state prisoner.
Of recent years, Allen has enjoyed
almost entire liberty. He may be
frequently seen on the STREETS of Nam

any ordinary citizen. Whatever may

Allen has taxed Idaho patience con-

MAYOR EAGLEsoNs ADDRESS

Mayor Eagleson apparently ex-
ploded mob Labor Day at Boise
when he denounced the power cor
poration and other public utilities, at
tackled several individuals and howled
against the general injustice of things.
1t surely smells like politics. Nothing
is finer as stepping stone to the
higher political shrines than a well
voiced attack on public utilities. just
at present the power company is a
goat in Idaho. So are the lumber cor
porations. Usually the poor down
trodden public applauds the brave pub
lie servant who has the courage to
attack them.
But it seems Mayor Eagleson didn't
strike the right chord. Some of the
things he said were undoubtedly true.
But he was somewhat like the Irish
man who almost annihilated the bar
keep and then issued a challenge to
the world; he took in too much ter
ritory. His purpose was too evident.
And the chords which he struck re-
call the fact that he was elected
mayor of Boise by the Nonpartisan
controlled factions of that city on
some sort of political deal which
has not been revealed as yet. He
had been considered probably a poor
third The voting public was not
aware. until Nonpartisans crowed
after the election that Boise was a
League governed city that they had
been duped by beautifully executed
political coup.
Not that Mayor Eagleson is not a
good city official and he might make
a good state governor. Some criti-
cism has been heaped upon the family
because they are notorious office
holders. But no one has seriously
made charge that they are not good
office holders. But Ern Eagleson
seems to have gotten off on the wrong
foot on Labor Day. Something went
wrong, radically wrong. The Boise
mayor didn't help his political future
much, if we are to judge by the wave
of popular disapproval sweeping south
ern Idaho.

ARSON.

Several hundred tons of hay have
been destroyed in this section already
this fall by fire. Some of the blazes
which resulted in the destruction OF
several thousand dollars worth OF
property have all the earmarks of in
cendiary origin. So far, no clues have
been obtained as to the perpetrators
of the crimes but l. w. WIS in sew
eral instances are regarded to be at
the bottom of the trouble.
Every effort should be made to
bring those responsible before the
courts of justice. OF all the. crimes,
none is more despicable than arson
Ordinarily an arsonist's motive is per-
sonal revenge or some other depraved
attitude regarding The property OF
others. And Of all the criminals, none
is more difficult to convict. Sympathy
sometimes rules jury, but ordinarily
it is almost impossible to obtain direct
evidence of guilt. Frequently, juries
by arch and false argument are con-
WINGED that the insurance companies
and not the general public must pay
for those fire losses and they are
inclined to be lenient because of that
fact.
If there is a group of criminals who
should property be hailed before the
courts and to whom full penalty
should be melted out it is those per
sons who wantonly destroy property
and frequently lives, through fire
Stockmen have other acute problems
to face this year without having to be
worried by the prospect of having
thousands of dollars lost to them
through the action of individuals who
should be behind the bars.

SPECULATION IN OIL.

Three oil corporations are under
stood to be offering stock and lease
shares to the people of Caldwell at the
present time. Of course, it is useless
to warn against investing in such Sc
curities. Never was time more pro-
pitious for foisting such investments
onto. the public. Money is plentiful
and comparatively valueless. New oil
fields are being opened up frequently
to spur on those who are selling stock
and captivate those whose fortitude
will not permit them from eternally
recalling tales of big killings" made
by oil company investors. Apparently
human nature will not permit abstin-
ance from the practice of purchasing
pretty paper.
Oil share statesmen have a glib line
They absolutely guarantee money
back if the investment does not yield
returns, the. company has fully COM
piled with the Idaho "Blue Sky Law
and their company has the best site
in Texas for well. You simply can't
lose. Oh, no.
Certainly fortunes have been made
in oil wells. And ii is just as true
that many of those companies who are
selling stock are honest. But good
intentions pay no dividends. 1t may
be interesting to note that recent in
vestieators quote reputable oil au-
thorities who contend that the average
investor will realize on his investment
about once in 200 times.
1t is we'll to remember that pro
ducing well, gusher, will. within a
year, probably produce about u or Is
barrels of oil per day. Somehow, oil
stock statesmen forget 10 tell you that

SiLETZ CHALLENGES
EDDYWLlE TO TUG
OF-WAR AT FAIR

The County Fair Board is In receipt
of a communication, presumably COM
ing from Siletz, and IL we are net mis-
taken, one big man by the name of
Phil Elting issues challenge to the
big bugs of Eddyville to come forth
with long, strong rope at the County
Fair, as he believes there is more pep
I'M Siletz than there is in Eddyville,
and that the Siletz delegation at the
Fair believes they can drag Eddyville
around over the fair grounds. In other
words, 1T appears MS challenge from
Siletz to Eddyville to tug-of-war con-
test, scheduled ON tho afternoon Of
September 10Th, 1919. If there is any
body in Eddyville who believes Siletz
has the wrong hunch, the sports COM
mittee Of the Fair Board would sug-
gest that they get in communication
with w. e. Simpson, chairman OF the
sports committee, at once.
We might suggest. in closing, thar
IL there is any section OF The county
, who believes they can pick out five
men who can output the winners of
tr.e other contest, we might put ON
another event of this sort.
