AROUND THE COURT HOUSE

C. E. Bushnell of Idaho Falls was
fined IS and costs Monday for driv-
ing an automobile here without a
license.
Edwin Rust, the confessed abduc-
tor of Judge Andersen's car, was
taken in irons, almost, to the state
penitentiary Tuesday. His sentence
was indeterminate, one to fourteen
years. Rust preferred the peniten-
tiary to the reform school. He is
about seventeen years old. They
hobbled the boy with an ancient
Oregon boot so he would not kill
the sub-warden and run away.
Divorces Asked

from Mike Belch on grounds of
cruelty.

A Friend of Idaho

James H. Wallis, president of the
Utah Press association will come ur
from his home at Vernal, Utah. Mr.
Wallis is the man who put Idaho or
the map, by making it one Of the
first states in the union in matters
/ OF sanitation. BY his activities he
established sanitation in Idaho as il
AFFECTS hotels, slaughter houses, meat
markets, stores, printing houses
sources of public water supplies
drainage, sewerage etc. In the few
years during which he was commits
sioner of the state health department
in Idaho, he advanced the interests
OF this state from condition of
chaos to well regulated state. Mr..
! Wallis was the author of para
graph in the hotel regulations call
ing for seven-foot sheet on every
bed supplied to guest for money in
a public house. The sport which
grew out of the various write-ups of
the seven-fOOt sheet, furnished
enough merriment to derive place
or to be staged among the movies.
Irrigation Worker Interested
H. G. Knight, business manager
of the Irrigation World, that new
magazine published by j. Robb
Brady, of Pocatello, devoted to ir-
rigation and the retaining of the
arid lands of the west, will be in at
tendance at Blackfoot both days. He
is just now gathering matter for the
next edition of that magazine, to be
printed in June land he will attend
the monster picnic on the Dubois
project. He has just distributed
10000 copies of the Irrigation
World among people east of the Mis-
sissippi river, and is still pushing the
work of distribution. If Mr.. knight
will put few paragraphs about the
unusual picnic at the Mayohi into
the Irrigation World, he will have
conveyed great favor on the peo-
pie of the Snake river valley, by
bringing it to the attention of the
readers of that magazine.
An Expert to Demonstrate
H. G. H. Buckner of 722-17th
street, Oakland, CAL, writes that he
will be here early and will remain
until the events are all over. Mr.,
Buckner is the Pacific coast repre-
sentative of the Ludlow Typograph
company, who are the manufacturers
Of the new machine we are install
ing. The Chicago office thinks
enough of the Blackfoot convention
and the demonstration to be made
in The Republican office on May "a,
to arrange for Mr.. Buckner to make
the trip. They have selfish inter-
est and . laudable business interest
in sending an expert to demonstrate
their new machine and to get in
close touch with the publishers of
the intermountain region. Wages
are high and the Ludlow typograph
is designed to speed up the work of
casting type forms and saving a
printing house part of it's labor bills.
Where Prosperity Abounds
The publishers of the intermount-
ain region are prosperous set, and
have more ready cash to spend for
modern inventions than the people
in almost any other section Of the
United States, outside of the large
cities. For these reasons the Lud-
low Typograph company feels a,

A Distinguished Visitor Coming

A Distinguished Visitor Coming
]. E. Jones, the manager of the
Salt Lake branch of the Western
; Newspaper union, will be in at
tendance. Mr.. Jones represents a
firm that has branch houses in
practically all the states in the union
and they publish a newspaper called
the Publishers Auxillery, which has
a circulation among $4,000 news
paper men in the United States and
Canada. 1t is Mr.. Jones wish to be-
come better acquainted with Idaho,
it's resources and it's people and to
get report of the convention and
the monster picnic in their news
paper published at Chicago, and cir
culated as We have stated, among the
publishers of America. Should Mr..
Jones give some space in his publica-
ton to matters in the Snake river
valley, the people of this section Of
the country will be indebted to him,
and any hospitality they can extend
to him, his firm and his fellow pub
fishers will not be misplaced, and
nothing will be too good. Mr.. Jones
represents the firm that bought the
American Press. association, two
years ago, when the German propa-
gandists were trying to buy it with
their chest of gold, supplied from
Germany. They were going to use
1t for propaganda as long as they
could, but the prompt action of the
Western Newspaper union shut them
out. This gives monopoly on what
is known as plate service or ready
print service in the United States, to
the Western Newspaper union, and
insteadS of raising their prices, as
might be expected, they give a bet
ter service at the old price, in the
face of the higher prices for all ma
terials and labor due to war condi-
tons. The people~ef Bingham county
have reason to be glad to see J. E.

Mastered a Difficult Undertaking
Another guest from Salt Lake City
will be K. T. Porte secretary of the
Utah Press association, and author
of the Porte price list for publishers.
This work was compiled by Mr.. Porte
to save the trouble of estimating all
the different kinds, of commercial
printing that are offered to the print
ers when the customer wants price
before placing the order. Many men
and many firms have attempted to
compile price lists so simple and so
comprehensive that they would be
kept on the office desk, and any
kind of printed product could be
ordered and price named promptly,
by referring to the book. Many ex-
pensive failures have resulted from
such compilations, but R. T. Porte,
of Salt Lake City, has compiled one
that was success and it is used ex-
tensively in America, and there is a

Credit to Firemen

In the case of the first fire, the
only dangerous one, delay on the
fire departments part of a few mo-
ments would have possibly meant the
loss of the whole building. Manager
Daniels believes that only the prompt
arrival of the fire fighters saved the
hotel.
The local fire department is now
under the charge of Fred Simons, a
veteran fireman, who was member
of the fire department in San Fran
cisco for eleven years and afterwards
served in the same work in Boise as
organizing instructor. He made an
efficient fire fighting team out of the
Boise boys.
Therefor it is not strange that
good results come thus quickly upon
the heels of Mr.. Simons' appointment
as chief of the Blackfoot fire de-
partment.
1t was noticed at Monday nights
fire that the department got there
promptly, wasted no time in prelim-
inaries, and found the. fire with their
axes in time to prevent it's making
any Roadway beyond good healthy
smudge.

UNDERTOOK that communicated with

Incendiary Fire
The second fire left no doubt Of
it's origin. 1t started in bed in q
vacant room. It touched nothing
else, but consumed the mattress and
bedding and scorched a commode.
The firemen came again and put it
out, this time having to go thru the
main hallway upstairs with a hose
and spilling water on the carpet to
it's damage.
On the other side of the house,
shortly afterwards towel was found
on fire. And near that latter room,
a window was broken that led out on
the roof.
These fires, it seemed to Manager
Daniels and the guests Of the hotel,
could scarcely have begun by acct
dent. If they did, then the fates
lied their hardest to burn up the
Cottage hotel that night.

Hard on Type Founders

A letter from Manager Carr of the
American Type Founders company of
Portland, Ore, does not indicate
that this firm will send a representa-
tive to the Blackfoot meeting. The
introduction of the Mergenthaler
linotype, the Miller saw and the Lud-
low typograph sounded the death
knell of a large portion Of the type
founders business in the world.
The inventions bring about such
sweeping changes that type is used
less as the new machines are intro
duced, and the introduction Of the
typograph, when successfully oper-
ated, means the wpiing out of d
large per centage Of the business Of
the type founders in this country.
For these reasons 1t is not to be
wondered at that the Type Founders
company of Portland, or any other
place should not care to send re-
preventative to witness the demon
stration Of the new invention.

what calomel is. It's mercury; quick

When you feel bilious, sluggish, con-
stipated and all knocked out and be-
lieve you need a dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your drug
gist sells for a few cents a large bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is
entirely vegetable and pleasant to take
and is perfect substitute for calomel.
1t is guaranteed TO start your liver
without stirring you up inside, and

Don't take calomel! 1t can not be

GALLUP LEGION DIDN'T
VOLUNTEER SERVICES TO
STATE DURING STRIKE

The Journal carried a report n
few days ago to the effect that the
Gallup post of the America Legion
had volunteered to aid the state gov
eminent in preserving order during
the coal strike, in case disturbances
occurred. A message received from
]. A, Brentari, post commander, says
the report is untrue. His message
follows;
Palmer Ketner, Jr.. post of Gal

the state that the post did not desire
to volunteer for service as strike
breakers; that the post stood for the
preservation of law and order but
that no unlawfulness or violence was
expected here. also that the local au-
thorities could handle any situation
arising. No meeting of the post has
been held for the discussion of any
armed organization whatever. No
trouble anticipated in the Gallup
fieldSn

Ration Range: The Ration Rotary
club directed the printing of a pla-
card for general display about the city
which reads as follows
THIS is AMERICA.
We believe in one country-one
loyalty-one flag.
Don't denounce our country, our
form of government, our institutions.
You can not follow the red and
black flags of anarchy and Bolshevism

Stripes.
We have room here only for one
hundred percent Americans.
If you love any other flag, are
against our institutions, are against
our form of government and law and
order, you are not an American.
If you are not American-GET
OUT.
These placards are being placed in
every patriotic American store win
dow and in the office Of every loyal
American professional man in Ration

be well for every unpatriotic Ameri-
can and every alien resident to accept
them as they are meant

MOTOR TRANSPORT
SYSTEM USED To
DISTRIBUTE FOOD
British Resort to Use of Power
Propelled Trucks to Handle
Food During Strike of Work
erS on Railroads,

London, NoT. Cby the Associated
Press) When the railroad mems
strike tied up the transportation sys-
TEN of England the ministry of food
put into operation a scheme of motor
car transport planned in detail during
the war for use in case Of German
invasion 1t worked so successfully
that there was no suffering and Vir-
tually no inconvenience from lack of
food. In the case of London it was
a much bigger task than could face
any American city because London
lives a hand to-mouth existence in
absence of adequate storage facilities
Rationing System Used
When the decision to strike was
announced the food ministry put into
effect a system of rationing as rigor-
Gus as during the war; marshalled the
governments 5000 automobile trucks
and closed Hyde park, the wage earn
ers' favorite place for protest meet
ings. The great park became a
dumping ground for food brought
from all over the country From
there it was distributed to whole
salers of London. The operation
moved so smoothly that on the sec
ond day rationing was eased a little
and within a week supplies were
plentiful. On the sixth day three
fourths of London's normal supplies
of 10000 gallons of milk daily was
being brought in and distributed.
After a few days Hyde park pre-
sented a scene somewhat like an
army camp and eventually akin to a
circus ground at a one day stand
Everything moved rapidly but there
was little confusion. Long lines Of
trucks, driven by army -trained men
at the direction, in many instances,
of army officers. deposited food at
several centers or loaded it for dis
tribution.
Women Render Valuable Aid.
Scores of women members of war
auxiliary services. many of them still
in khaki, assisted the men volunteer
workers in driving the motor cars and
handling lighter articles, The women
also did an immense amount of
clerical work. Army discipline did
much toward the success of the I'M
dertaking The government had
plenty of cars and more than enough
willing hands for every job. The
ministry of food still had a firm grip
on wholesalers and retailers as far as
allotting food was concerned. This
was a power conferred during the
war and had never been relinquished
Several newspapers stated that the
railway workers did not appreciate
the governments resources. one
labor leader said the day the strike
was declared that England would
face starvation within a week and
the government would be forced to
surrender. On the seventh day of the
strike a high railroad official told
the Associated Press that food was
not considered a compelling factor in
the strike.
