Investigate Misuse of Funds

Boise, Idaho, February 3-The in
vestigation of the use of the military
funds by ex-governor Alexander and
his adjutant general, G. S. Moody, has
developed nothing positive as yet ex-
cept as to a few items of illegal ex-
penditure of funds. With reference
to them Mr.. Alexander and General
Moody have already pleaded guilty by
reimbursing the state. They have de-
posted with the state over $4,000 to
cover these items. 1t is staid that a
larger amount will have to be paid in
to cover the total misuse of funds.
The use of the militia funds by the
former governor for travelling and
other expenses, that, it is claimed
should have been paid out of his own
allowance is attempted to be explained
on the ground that there was not suf-
ficient funds elsewhere to cover that
expense and that the militia appropria-
ton, being practically untouched, was
regarded being of legal availability.
The former adjutant general is di-
rectly accused of using militia funds
for personal ends. Nothing definite
can be stated at this time excepting
as to misuse of funds admitted by Cen
eral Moody in his payment of cash to
the state treasury since the inquiry
was started.

NO ROOM here
FOR ACITATORS

A labor organizer. named Harry
Call, arrived in Bonners Ferry Satur-
day and advertised a meeting in Kents
hall that evening, at which re claimed
he intended to organize a branch of
the timber workers union. The atti-
tude of the speaker caused some sus-
picion to arise that he might be an
4. w. w agitator, and Prosecuting
Attorney o. c. Wilson and Sheriff Dun
ming interviewed Call with reference
to his plans for the meeting.
Call admitted that his talk con-
sisted principally of criticism of the
l.. L. l.. L., it's foundation. organiza-
ton and the men connected with it,
and he was advised by the prosecuting
attorney and sheriff that. in such a
case, he had better abandon the plans
for his meeting, which advice he de-
cided to follow.
The L. l.. l.. L. are exceptionally
strong in this community and its mem
bers are naturally proud of the organ
ization and the wonderful work it
accomplished in aiding the govern
ment during the war. So the coun-
ty authorities do not intend to allow
any criticism of it to be made, as
trouble is certain to follow meetings
of the nature of the one planned for
Saturday night. Legitimate labor or
CARNATIONS will not be interfered
with, but 1. w. w. agitation will not
be permitted to start in this county

BEST STORAGE OF POTATOES
Growers Are Urged to Take Safe
guards to Prevent Loss Of ThIs
Important Crop.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
Proper storage Of potatoes would
prevent much of the annual loss In
this important food crop. Inexperi-
enced growers especially are urged to
take safeguards against spoilage.
Potatoes should be stored In a cool,
dark cellar or be buried In a pit in the
garden. They must not be allowed to
freeze. If they are buried In pits the
potatoes must be covered sufficiently
to keep out all frost. If exposed to
the light they will turn green.
A good method Of storing potatoes
Is to place them In barrels with a few
holes cut In the sides near the bottom
Tor ventilation. Cover the barrels
with old sacks and place them In a
cool, dark part of the cellar.

Don't Want Club Leader
Editor Bonhers Ferry Herald:

Editor Bonhers Ferry Herald:
The X. V. Times had quite an ar
ticle on January 31st-$1600 for our
county and the government would fur
nish $1,000 toward a county club
leader. This may sound good to
some people who do not pay the taxes,
but to taxpayer who looks at $1,000
of our money to get chance to spend
$1,000 of government money Just a
Dutch treat. And the taxpayer who
has lived and paid taxes for % or 80
years and has not got a foot of coun-
ty road in an entire road district, and
who has a few acres cleared, and to
import man at $3.50 per month to
help child work part of that land, it
has taken rs years to clear. This
board of commissioners was elected to
handle the county money to the best
advantage and give us some county
roads which will help settle up Bound
airy county and the only way we can
make a bigger and better Boundary
county. You can buy ten times as
much for the same money that Miss
Heberling spent last season as was
grown in Boundary county under her
supervision. So if Kootenai county
has $1,000 to spend, let her have it
and let us put our money to better ad-
building roads at home.
