ORIENTAL CHERRY TREES
A BIT OF OLD JAPAN

The famous Japanese cherry trees
around the tidal basin are in full
bloom and sparkling from the fresh
drenchings which the old Roman god
Jupiter Pluvius poured upon them.
Gardeners at the propagating gard
ems were anxious as to the possible
fate of their beautiful charges, declar-
ing that the rains would not hurt the
trees, but that brisk winds would dam
age them considerably.
The japanese cherry trees stole a
march on the gardeners this season
and came into blossom two weeks
ahead of time. The trees will be a
show place for at least week more
it was stated. provided the weather
does not interfere. Washington Star

PLAN AMERICAN
LEGION SMOKER

At recent meeting of the American
Legion the matter of arranging for
an athletic smoker was discussed with
a great deal of interest and enthus-
iasm and a committee was appointed
to look after the matter.
II is the plan to hold one smoker
here and one at Standpoint, both under
the auspices of the American Legion.
At least four boxing bouts will be
staged OF from four to six rounds each
and it is probable that there will be
wrestling match.
1t is planned to match men from the
Bonners Ferry American Legion with
men of the Standpoint Legion. The
entertainment will be clean sport and
there will be no chance of any frame
ups"
Standpoint has several crack men
with the gloves, it is said and will be
Bonners Ferry will return the COM
pliment They have a heavyweight,
a good welter-weight and several good
lightweight boxers.
One of the men who will represent
Bonners Ferry in these smokers is
Tom Gillard who was a good man with
the gloves before he went into the
army and who had some valuable ex-
perience and training there. Another
is Fred thinner, who, it is said is a
"go-getter" and a hardhitting man al
though not much on science. Where
the Bonners Ferry Legion is weakest
is in light-weights.
George Harvey and e. E. Saunders
are quite interested in seeing these
proposed smokers arranged and they
are anxious to get in touch with any
ex-soldier of the county who would be
willing to represent the local post of
the American Legion against a Sand
point opponent. The men who rep
resent the local post will be paid for
their work, if il is desired and there
is assurance that the exhibitions will
be well patronized.
No definite plans have yet been laid
in regard to the home talent minstrel
show which the American Legion is
planning to give in the near future.

Decision By Attorney General

In computing the size of county del
egations to state party conventions, Of
ficials elected upon nomination by
more than one party should be counted
as having been elected by both parties,
and the total vote should be credited
to both parties in making the compu-
tiOn.
This was the holding of Attorney
General Roy L. Black in an opinion is
sued recently at request of Secretary
of State Robert o. Jones, who was in
doubt as to whether Miss Ethel E. Red
field, state superintendent, who re-
ceived both the republican and the
democratic nominations in the last
campaign, should be counted as a re-
publican or a democrat.
Delegates to state party conventions
are apportioned on the basis OF the
total number of congressional and
state offices divided into the total
vote, each unit Of 400 Of the quotieni
emitting the county to one delegate.
The attorney generals holding viii
result in the conventions of both par
ties being the same size.

PLAN BUDGET
OF THE YEAR

The board of county commissioners
was in session most of last week and
will hold several meetings this week
in preparation for the work of the en-
suing year. On Friday of this week
the board will meet in conference with
District County Agent Kjossness, of
Moscow, in reference to the county
agent work in this county for the next
year and on Saturday the commits
sioners will examine bids for the con-
struction of the new Porthill ferry.
On Wednesday of this week the COM
missioners prepared the jury list for
the year selecting about $50 names
of persons qualified for this service.
Thursday they made appointments
of road overseers. This work is not
yet completed but very few changes
from the overseers of last year will
be made. Osmond Plato has been
named road overseer for District No.
10 and II. Cooper has been appointed
overseer for the Curley Creek dis
trict.
The county funds are now in such
shape that the commissioners are able
to determine just how much money
may be spent for various projects and
the financial condition of the county
is in far better shape than it was a
year ago. There are no outstanding
warrants and there are no accounts
against the county coming due. The
commissioners are now at work on the
budget for road and bridge improve
ment and the taxpayers may look for
more real road work this year than
has ever been accomplished before.
The board of commissioners do not
plan, however, to create any more in
debtedness and do not propose to in
cur any Indebtedness which they do
not have the money in sight to pay for
The past year the commissioners
have handled the business of the coun-
ty in an economical manner and have
paid for all new equipment purchased
and done even more than the usual
amount of road work of past years, in
spite of the fact that labor and ma
terial has advanced greatly.

MAY ORGANIZE
N. G. |. UNITS
ADJUTANT GENERAL PATCH IN
TERESTED IN HAVING IDAHO
GET GUARD UNITS
PAY FOR MEN AND OFFICERS
Excellent Equipment win Be Provided
for Units To Be Organized

The war department of the United
States has authorized Col. L. V. Patch,
the Adjutant General of the State of
Idaho, to organize in the state, units
of cavalry, heavy artillery, machine
gun or infantry, and in the very near
future a strenuous campaign will be
made to locate these units in towns
that desire them. The government is
very liberal in providing for these
national guard organizations. For
instance, in the organization of a
troop of cavalry the government fur
nishes all horses and feed for the
same, pays the hire of men to take
care of these horses, furnishes all the
saddles, uniforms and complete equip
ment and pays the men and officers
for every drill period experienced
officers will be sent to instruct the
men in modern equitation. The Off
GERS and men in the cavalry as well as
in all national guard organizations,
will draw one-fourth of the regular
army pay, which to enlisted men
amounts to about $1.70 per drill. The
State of Idaho furnishes $500 per year
for armory rent.
In the event of the organization of
artillery units, the 155 nm guns will
be supplied which is the same calibre
gun used by the 146tb Field Artillery
in France, or in event of a community
wanting to organize an infantry or ma
chine gun unit, the most modern
equipment will be furnished to the or
ganization. Millions of dollars worth
of ammunition is available for the
national guard of the various states,
to be used in target practice, which
will be made a special feature by Col.
Ned M. Green, who is an officer of the
United States regular army, assigned
as inspector instructor to Idaho and
who has a national reputation as a
marksman, having held the worlds
record in certain phases of rifle and
pistol firing.
Adjutant General Patch was at the
head of the Idaho national guard at
the time Bonners Ferry was given it's
first organization-Com r. He
writes the Herald this week that il is
his intention, accompanied by Col.
Green, to visit the larger towns of the
state where sufficient number of men
are available for the organization of
these units and endeavor to place
those units which have been allotted
to Idaho. Towns especially inter
ested in securing one of these organi-
cations will communicate with the Ad-
jutant General at Boise, Idaho.
