to worry.
Lcprosy Under Control-AccordinS
to Dr.. Trotter, president of the board

patients sent to the MOlokai settle

cases yield to the treatment and are
later discharged or paroled as appar-
emily free from any evidence OF the

BAPTIST CHURCH.

At the close of the service last
Sunday morning which had been
marked by unusual spiritual power
the church by a rising vote, voted to
adopt the program of our Lord Jesus
Christ, which involved the raising
of $l7S.83 in the five year program
of the New World movement. 1t is
needless to say that the church was
nearly appalled, when this large sum
was first announced, but with de-
termined purpose. and with an en-
thusiasm which is contagious through
out the constituency of the church,
the leaders have given themselves to
the raising of the entire amount

his work we'll organized. His team

WILL DRAFT PLANS
FOR new BUILDING
CITY COUNCIL EMPOWERS 10.
CAL ARCHITECT TO PRO-
CEED WITH WORK.

At an adjourned meeting OF the
city council held Monday evening, a
resolution was passed empowering a
special committee of councilmen to
employ an architect to draft plans for
the American Legion Memorial build
ing. This, it was pointed out by Wal
ter Griffiths. city attorney. was essen
tial. before bond election could be
called to vote on the proposition.
In accordance with that motion, r.
E. Field. local architect, as author
lied Tuesday morning to proceed with
the work he had already undertaken
and present plans and specifications
at the next regular meeting of the
council which will be held May g.
Only minor changes to meet new re-
quirements and to fit the plans for a
general community building will be
drafted in the plans as already draft
ed.
Instead of a single story front, the
plans will be altered to include gen
eral assembly hall on the second floor
which it is proposed to use for all
ordinary meetings of the Commercial
club, Forward club, local Legion post
and other organization whose men,
bership for ordinary meetings will no,
require the larger auditorium.
According to the estimates com.
piled by special legion committee
in response to the request of city
councilmen. probable gross revenues
for the building were placed at al.
most $4,000 per annum. This. it is
felt, is a conservative estimate, and
will be greatly exceeded as the city
increases in population and the uses
to which it is put also magnify.
An ordinance creating sewer dis
trict No. 8 was read for the third time
at the council meeting and the city
clerk authorized to proceed with the
necessary publications relative to its
organization.

POLITICAL TIDE
Occur d'AIene Convention Ex.
pected to UntangIe Knotty
Problems

Political interest in Caldwell cen
tiers largely in the state Republican
convention which is to be held in
Couer d'Alenc next week, beginning
April %. Local delegates will leave
here Monday evening on the special
train. Caldwell has two representa-
tives, r. B. Scatterday and M. II.
Gibbons with ]. II. Gipson and D. d.
Harger as alternates.
Senator William f Borah will be
present at the convention and accord
ing to recent dispatches from Wash
ington, d. c., will be a candidate to
the Republican national convention
which meets in Chicago this summer.
1t is understood that Mr.. Borah will
use his influence to place the Idaho
delegation in the column with those
supporting Hiram Johnson of Cali
fornia. With a we'll organized cam.
paign for Leonard Wood in the field.
it is considered likely that whether the
Idaho senior senator is to dictate the
stand Of the Idaho delegation to the
national convention or will loom large
at Couer d'Alene.
Troubled Waters.
Mltterings of discomfort as ainst the
cabinet form of state government
among Republicans of idaho is likely
to take up more than good portion
OF the time of the convention which
is to be devoted to state problems
Whether Republicans are to insist
that the d. w. Davis creation is to be
given entire party support and is TO
be injected into the state campaign
as an issue this fall will probably be
determined next week at Couer d
Alcnc.
Opposition to John Hart as nation
al committeeman will likely come to
a climax at Couer d'Alene, sponsored
by those who look with disfavor up
on his war record. Among those who
will attend the convention are num-
Der of Legion men who may lead the
fight. At the recent state convention
of the American Legion, the subject
of John Harris participation in Idaho
politics, while it never came before
the organization because Of its polit-
ical nature, was rather thoroughly
hashed out
Undoubtedly. after the convention
has passed into history, it will be
fairly easy to determine who of the
several candidates to the U. S. SEN
ate is to be looked upon with favor by
leading Republicans. At present, Col.
L. v. Patch, A. H. Corners, Frank
Gooding and E. G. Davis has an
nounced themselves as receptive can
didates. While no action can be TAX
en- by the Couer d'Alene convention,
it is considered likely that some fairly
definite conclusions may be drawn af-
ter that meeting as to their compare
tive strength.

CALDWELL CITIZEN
ANSWERS SUMMONS
LOU BURNS WILL BE BURIED
HERE; SERVICES 1880
TODAY.

Funeral services for Lou Burns will
be held at the Presbyterian church
Friday morning at 1890 o'clock. The
body will be brought here from Boise
Friday morning. Members of the
Christian Science church will have
charge of the services at the Presby-
terrain church, while the burial rites
at the grave will be conducted by
Masons.
Mr.. Burns. who has wide circle
of friends in Caldwell, was found dead
at the Idanha hotel in Boise last Mon
day morning. Physicians who exam
ined the body asserted that he had
been dead for at least "a hours before
it was discovered. Reports that he
died at the home of John Look are
without basis, the fact that Mr.. Burns
had been eating at the Look residence
having in some way given rise to the
story that he died there.
Mr.. Burns was for many years en-
gagged in the real estate business here.
For some time, he has made his home
at Arco, Idaho, although he has been
frequent visitor in Boise and Cald-
well. The fact that he had told the
hotel clerk at the Idanha that he ex-
pected to leave Boise for few days
visit in Caldwell permitted the body
to lie in the room for some time be-
fore it was discovered, the hotel clerk
assuming that he was out of town for
several days. 1t was only when Mr..
Look went to the room and could get
no response to repeated knocks that
an investigation was conducted and
the body found.
Last Friday, Mr.. Burns suffered
from a slight attack of ptomain pois-
oning. Saturday he was apparently
we'll on the way to recovery but the
poisoning attack, combined with a
weak heart that had caused him con-
siderable trouble, are believed to have
caused his death.
Mr.. Burns was a Scottish Rite Ma
son and member of the Boise Shrine
He is survived by his wife, who lives
at Arco, and son. Ollie. at Corv-
allis. Ore.

COUNTY CAUCUS
Faithful Few Select Delegates
to State Convention at

Monday afternoon, about 80 OF the
Canyon Democrats, answering call
from the county executive committee,
assembled at the city hall here. In
the absence of the county chairman
who is seriously i'll in California. J. J.
Walling of Nampa was selected to act
as chairman of the meeting Ross
Madden acted as secretary.
Anti-Nugent and anti-Nonpartisan
forces were materially in the major
ity as the selection of representatives
to the state convention which meets
at Lewiston clearly attests. A COM
mittee of five, appointed by the chair
man, selected the delegates to the
state convention subject to the ap-
proval of those attending the county
caucus.
Those Selected.
Members of that committee were
P. E. Smith. ]. B. Newport, c. Fl.
Samson, F. F. Meek and J. M. Cason.
Delegates selected by this committee
to go to the Lewiston convention are
Caldwell-P. E Smith, D. G.. Ruby,

Vacancies will be filled by appoint
ment and those who attend the Lew
iston convention are authorized to
ballot for the entire delegation in. the
event some of them do not make the
trip Canyon county is entitled to 81
representatives at the Lewiston con-
vention. Election to the state gath.
ering was almost assured by attend
ing the county caucus since not a
great deal of interest was displayed
by Canyon Democrats.
For some reason, no resolutions
were passed. This is not in conform
ity with the action of county conven.
tons in other parts of the state where
the Wilson regime has been highly
Iauded and the cabinet form of stat,
government as highly censored.

vented his promotion to the rank oil
major. In France, he served with the
now famous Battery B Of the l4o F
A. and later with the 10th Engin-
jcers.
