Claim Western States Entitled
to Position Of Secretary Of
Interior-Favor Gem State
Man.

That the announcement that James
II. Hawley of Boise is being considered
for appointment as successor to Frank
lin X. Lane, secretary OF the interior,
has created widespread interest over
Idaho. Is evident from comment in the
press Of the state
In its current issue the Idaho Falls
Times says:
The good news from Washington
this week that former Governor James
H. Hawley stands a splendid chance of
terror to succeed Franklin X. Lane,
will be received with genuine enthu-
siasm all over the state Of Idaho and
the entire west.
Every farming interest. every busi-
ness interest and every other inter-
ested party should get behind the
movement to have Mr.. Hawley ap-
pointed to this position for they know
what he will do for the west. Partic-
ularly should this apply to the east.
south and west parts of the state. in
view of the big irrigation scheme to
develop this portion Of the state, which
Is now on foot.
II the big scheme is ever accom-
plished. the government will have to
put It across. The secretary of the in
terror will have much to do for or
against this development scheme. It is
essential to Idaho that an Idaho man
be named for this position. Jim Haw-
ley is the biggest man the west can
produce for the job. His active friends
will Of course become energetic at once
in his behalf. Let all help out, because
all will be benefited II through this
means q man can be placed in Wash
ington in a position to bring about the
development Of such a vast and rich
tract of irrigable land.
Similar conditions prevail in other
! states of the west. A western man I'M
derstands western conditions better
| than an eastern man. The west lie
| the undeveloped portion of the nation
and why not have a truly western man
| in this important cabinet position? The
possibilities seem favorable and the Op-
portunity should be taken advantage
OF.
Jim Hawley has grown up" with
Idaho. He was born under irrigation
developed under mining. and had the
| rough spots knocked off under 40 years
practice in the various courts.
When Governor Brady was called
| upon to name the most distinguished
citizen of Idaho to the Panama Pacific
exposition at San Francisco, he named
the Hon. James II. Hawley.
Jim Hawley, possibly more than any
other man who could be chosen. rep
resents the spirit and progress of the
west.

in part:
"On the day after Christmas most

1T is less trouble and less effort to

RECOMMEND FEDERAL
AID STATE NAVAL
ORGANIZATIONS

The secretary Of the navy today sent
10 congress recommendation that
funds be provided for rendering federal
aid to state naval militia organizations,
the local recruiting station was in
formed.
The naval militia lost its identity
during the war; first through the crea-
ton of the national naval volunteers,
and subsequently. through the transfer
OF the national naval volunteers to the
naval reserve force. The act providing
for this transfer had the effect of re-
pealing the permanent character Of the
appropriation provided in 1914 for sup
plying arms and equipment to naval
militia organizations. and therefore,
now that some Of the states are reviv-
Ing their naval militia organizations, a
step which congress encouraged in the
last naval bill, there IL no money avail

department to help feed the birds durA
ing the severe cold weather. under the
direction Of william Riggs, deputy
game warden for Washington and
Adams counties.
Instead Of subjecting himself to the
orders and direction of Mr.. Riggs,
ONeal assumed q position superior to
that Of Mr.. Riggs and for three weeks,
this assumption. To cap It of. O'Neal
led Mr.. Riggs to believe that he was
to receive a substantial promotion in
the state game department through
O'Neafs recommendation.
O'Neal visited the local moving pic

ton to the proprietor that he was in
the field visiting all the moving picture
representative of the Universal Film
company of California He even talked
to others here of his intention to buy
the Weiser moving picture show for
$4,000.
O'Neal applied for and secured a
position as electrician with a Weiser
firm. The first job he was put to was
the fixing of stove. He returned to
tfe shop and told his boss he didn't
fix the stove because he never had
seen stove like it before. His Job
ended right there with that firm.
MONEY BORROWING GENIUS.
He proved to be genius In borrow
ing money from men and women, and
in getting credit at the stores here.
This finally landed him in the clutches
and custody of Sheriff Walker.
In the criminal complaint filed in the
probate court against O'Neal, the
county prosecutor, III. McAdams, in
