SLAY
CIVILIANS
AS H0RDES.
TAKE CITY.
Polish Militia Driven Out of
Wilma by Russ and Mas
sacre Ensues; Lemberg
Still Held by Poles.
By Associated Press.

Warsaw, Jan. 9.-Vilna has fallen
into the hands of the bolshevik
army, several thousand strong,
which drove out the Polish militia.
A massacre of civilians began at
once, partly because the Poles had
offered resistance and had arrested
or shot the members of the local
bolshevik committees.
The Polish troops, who had no
cannon and only a few cartridges
per rifle and were under command
of General Veitko, retreated to
Lanovarova, where they were dis
armed by the Germans and sent
to Bialystok. There they were rob-
bed by the Germans and were start
ed off for Polish territory.
Lemberg, where the Poles are
defending themselves against the
Ruthenians, appears safe for the
time being.
Paderewski Appeals to Patriotism.
Z The political situation at Warsaw
is stationary. AS a result of inter-
views which Ignace Jan Paderewski
has had with General Pilsudski,
Paderewski has agreed to form a
new cabinet, provided the socialists
now holding places in the ministry
withdraw from their predominating
position. General Pilsudski ex-
pressed himself as not wishing to
use his authority to force the with
drawal of these socialists.
Paderewski is working hard and
making appeals to patriotism. He
declares that he is willing to sac
rifce every ambition if only cabi-
net can be formed which the allies
can recognize and extend aid to
with safety to themselves as they
fear that a certain sort of cabinet
would lead to headlong bolshevism.
General Pilsudski and other lead
ers are being told very plainly that
the allies will help only when Po-
land is internally united.
Prince Eustache Sapieha, who
led the recent attempt to overthrow
the government, is still in prison.
He was arrested by the personal
rcd guard of Minister of the Interior
Thugut, who himself had previously
been arrested.
People Starving in Petrograd.
Refugees from Petrograd say that
the streets are full of starving peo-
pie, many of whom have money,
but can get no food. There has been
an outbreak in Riga. The popula
ton there is composed of Let's and
Estfonians, who for the most part
are socialists and opposed to prop
erty-owning, and the aristocratic
classes, who are of German origin.
Messages from Kiev report that
city and district quiet, now that
there is no longer any thing left to
steal, or land owners left to rob or
kill.
Kiev seems to be joining with
Moscow.
Leon Trotzky, the bolshevik for
eign minister, and Nikolai Lenine
the bolshevik premier, are making
ovcrtures to the Ukranians, saying
that they have no wish to turn over
the Ukraine government to the op-
position.
Workmen congresses have beer
formed at Kiev, one Ukranian and
the other Russian. The Russian
congress is entitled the workmen
and soldiers deputies and is a tool
of the bolshevik. Both congresses
have declared that they do not wish
intellectuals among their members
Farmers committees have been
formed here to distribute public
lands and the lands stolen from
FORMER land owners.

The Turks have shown an un-
willingness to surrender in ac-
cordance with the armistice

cept that at Medina, which is the
largest in Arabia, laid down their

sion. Fakhri Pasha, commander
at Medina, offered one excuse
after another until the allies

1t. is doubtful if similar incident
has ever occurred in the history of
any state in the union where the
outgoing and the incoming COVER

The messages OF the two execu-

ceremonies were in progress the
events that transpired were made a
part of the pictured history of the
state by the operation of moving
picture machines. A feature was
that both men advocated dry laws

Harry G. Cranke, our auctioneer

from Grangeville where he was in
consultation with Seth Jones and
other prominent stockmen of Ida
no with a view to getting every
thing ready to commence floating
the stock and securing ground for
the new packing plant to be built
at Lewiston. This will be the big
gest asset Camas and Nezperce
prairies and the lower country
have ever had.
The stock will be sold to the
stockmen, farmers and business
men of this country and an expert
packer will be employed to man.
age the plant.
The main reason of this move
is that shipping live stock so far
and paying heavy freight rates,
standing the heavy shrinkage in
shipping and bruising will be
eliminated, and also that when
these state highways are in we
can take a truck load of hogs to
town and be back in half day.
Every one in this country is in
terested in the project and great
praise is due to Seth Jones and his
launching such an undertaking.

NEW STATE GOVERNMENT
TAKES OVER REINS.
End OF Mosesism Brings Sigh Of
Relief. Republicans Control
State Offices and Legis-
lature.

The Inauguration Of the fif-
teenth Idaho legislature and state
officials-elect took place Monday
at high noon with simple but I'M
pressive ceremony. 1t marks the
| passing of a democratic admins
| tration of two years and the ush-
ering in of a republican one.
The bourbons lose control of both
branches of the legislature and
the state government including
all governing boards. During the
next two years the republican,
party will be given an opportuni-
ty to demonstrate that it is able
to give to the state a government
that is satisfactory to the people
as a whole.
Republican power in the state
government and legislature was
first shaken for many years, four
years ago and Governor Alexand-
er, democrat was elected COVER
nor. The republicans still held
control however, but two years
later with President Wilson at
the head Of the ticket, the demo-
Gratis were swept into power car
rying with them both branches
of the legislature and sufficient
number of state officers to con-
troll the administration. The non-
partisan leaguers disrupted their
ticket at the primary at the last
election and the republicans over
whelmingly and disastrously de-
feated the leaguers at the gener-
al election in November, again
coming into power.
