COUNTY ATTORNEY
AFTER GAMBLERS
Prosecutor Adair Says
He Will Use All
Means to Stop
Gambling

Every available means in the
hands of the county attorney will be
used in an effort to combat gambl-
ing and other vices now Furnishing
in Blackfoot according to a state
ment made last night by county
prosecutor, Ralph Adair. This pro-
miscious gambling must STOP" said
Mr.. Adair, land intend to use every
effort and all the power of my office
to end it,
There has been three homicides
in this county of late years that were
directly attributed to gambling and
it is my intention to do every thing
within my power to put stop to it.
If any rooming house or hotel or
place of like nature is found tolerat-
ing such games or bootlegging or
social vices, the county officers will
close them Immediately. l shall in
stitute suit Immediately to abate the
Club rooming house now in charge of
Mrs. w. c. Salck on the grounds of
it's being a disorderly house and a
public nuisance.
1.-THE prosecution of the men who
participated in the particular game
Saturday night in the Club rooming
house and which ended so unfortun-
ately is under adyisement. Whether
public justice demands their prosecu-
ton is questionable as the evidence
given at the inquest showed very
clearly that this was not a profess
sional gambling game in the sense
that it was conducted by someone for
profit.
There are several men in the city
who are said to be professional gam
blers and if the evidence warrants
such action they will be summary
dealt WITH"
A number of so called professional
gamblers are said to have left town
yesterday. z

COUNCIL ACCEPTS
PALMER CONTRACT
Legal Proceedings for
Municipal Water
Handled by Salt
Lakers

In adjourned session Monday night
city council voted to accept the bid of
Palmer Bond & Mortgage Co. of Salt
Lake City for the legal proceedings
in connection with the proposed
100000 issue of municipal water
system bonds. With the acceptance
of this bid the proposition of NUM-
cipal ownership of a water system
will probably be placed before the
electors of the city some time in
April.
The contract accepted by the city
calls for the payment of $1,000 in
case the bond issue is carried at the
election with proviso that the OBJ
legation be cancelled in the event the
bonds were sold to the Palmer COM
pany. The contract further provides
that in case the election is lost the
city will pay the sum of 500 for the
cost of the proceedings.
John G. Thompson of New York
City was named in the contract as
the bond attorney whose approval
must be secured
Nine bids were submitted to coun-
Gil from various companies thruout
the northwest.

which have been conducted at va
rious times have had tendency to
confirm your opinions in my mind.
My dear Mr.. Trego, it seems to me
that while it is necessary to have
some head to such an institution, yet
it seems that it would be only fair
to those confined there, If they might
avail themselves of any aid which
might be of service to them; yes,
give them anything that will make
healthful citizens and make them an
asset rather than liability to the
state. y,
Yes you no doubt have heard that
old and worn-out slogan about a
clean administration, and the north
and south railroad, yet must disap-
point you on the railroad program, II
you should expect me to build 1t;
yet in my opinion it is a necessity
and the one thing that wi1Ndo the
state great amount ofeood by
bringing the two sections closer to-
gether, commercially, at least. From
your letter it would seem that you
have not been in the times past ia
vored with candidates who are will
ing to say to the people that II am
a candidate and these are the things
believe in" Well 4 am willing to
discuss the things which I believe
would help develop our state and
will be glad to write you upon any
matter that you might feel needed
further explanation. and I trust that
you will give my reply the same con-
sideration that you have given the
inquiry and want to assure you that
I appreciate your interest in my can
didacy.
Respectfully,
M. A. KIGER.

CALL MEETING OF
COUNTY FARMERS
Beet and Grain Growers
Will Convene F riday
to Discuss Various
Problems

A mass meeting of the farmers Of
the county has been called for Friday
afternoon at the Isis theater by
Arthur Manwaring, president of the
Bingham County Beet Growers as
ISOLATION. The meeting will begin
promptly at / O'Clock.
The meeting has been called for
the purpose of discussing farming
problems in general and also to en-
able the beet growers and refinery
representatives to get together if pos
sible. Several factory men are ex-
pected to be present and it is thought
that the presentation of both sides
of the sugar beet contract question
will do much to bring about a settle
ment of the difficulty.
Like meetings have been held in
Colorado and Utah with excellent
results.

rnent gets good man in the de-
partment is should be seen to. it that
he is kept there. AS to the Idaho
Game Breeders association, beg to
advise you that | am not as familiar
with this association as you are per-
haps, but from what | have observed
1t looks like an association for the
development of everything but fish
and game, but in so far as the breed
ing of fur bearing animals is con-
cerned it would appear that it should
be commended; but when it comes
to the taking, breeding, selling or
propagating the wild fowl protected
under the federal law | would hest
tate about giving permits for the in
discriminate sale of any wild fowl
thus protected. Any plan that would
stock our streams and protect the
game and remove the department
from the curse Of politics in my opin-
ion would meet with general appro-
val.
Natural Resources. The state
owns in the north land upon which
there is but very little merchantable
timber, but upon which there is quite
growth of young timber, and it
would be very easy to hold this for
a reasonable length of time in order
that the same might be of some val
ue, and again the mineral resources
in the state should be taken care of
and especially is this true of the
phosphate beds.
The state might with proper hand
ling reforest quite bit of waste
land which within few years would
pay for any cost incurred, and then
if the timber which the state now
owns could be protected from fires
it would be we'll worth all it costs
to properly protect the same.
Clearing Lands. In using the
term lat COST naturally understood
you would know the meaning of
that, but for more definite under
standing | would say that whatever
the cost would be for manufacturing
plus transportation to place of use
would cover this item.
Would furnish this to farmers for
the simple reason that in other lines
of business those engaged have an
opportunity to cover this item in ad-
ding this to the cost of production
but not so with the rancher who
must sell at whatever price he can
get the commodities which he raises
on his farm, and at the present price
of powder he simply cannot pay the
price and develop his land. Let the
legislature set aside fund for this
which could be replaced from the
sale of explosives, by adding a small
margin above cost until this has
been done, and which has been done
in times past by the legislature in
other lines. In connection with this
l would say that some plan along
this line should be worked out as the
conditions warrant some action being
taken or the development of the state
will be retarded many years and
believe the Republican party should
be progressive enough to meet and
solve such conditions as they arise.
| am glad to know that you are
interested in the state institution 10
Gated in your city, especially in those
unfortunates confined there, but as
to the specific management Of such
an institution am of the opinion
that your opinions might bear great
er weight than mine, as my opinions
have all been formed while a men,

MUST PAY BY MARCH Is.

Bulletins have been sent out
by the secretary of state stating
that March 5 has been estab-
lished as a dead line" for the
payment of the automobile Ii
censes. The bulletin says: Here
tofore one assessor has set a cer-
tain date, another a date later,
and there has been general con-
fusion. / therefore request that
March Is be given as the dead
line for this year. Of course the
license fees are due on January
/ and registrations will occur in
January and February as usual,
but the deadline date March Is
sets the limit OF patience and en-
ables peace officers to begin con-
certed and uniform drives to en-
force the law. BY delay in the
collection of these fees the coun-
ties and state lose a large
amount of revenue in interest
which belongs to them.
Assessors, sheriffs, members
of the state constabulary and
other peace officers will develop
a strict enforcement of this law

f. PFENNEBECKER DEAD.

Elmer Pfennebecker died at
the Hotel de France from pneu-
monia following influenza. He
was'first stricken with influenza
about a week ago and pneumonia
developed few days later. He
had been a sufferer from heart
trouble for the greater part of
the winter.
Mr.. Pfennebecker was about
% years of age and is survived
by parents in Iowa, his father
now being en- route to Lewiston
to take charge of the remains,
An uncle and cousins reside in
the Greencreek section. He was
employed in the timber during
the summer and fall and had
been about Lewiston much of the
time during the winter. He
was a young man of pleasing
personality and had made many
friends about the hotel.-Lew'

The remains of the young
man were shipped to his ole
home in Iowa for burial.

PRAISE WINDOW DISPLAY.

Everyone who was fortunate
enough TO see the window dis
play, at the Hoene Hardware
some few weeks ago will heartily
agree with the Hardware World,
a monthly magazine published in
the interest of hardware indus
try, which commented of the
display, from a photograph, as
follows:
'The Hardware World is privi-
legged to present herewith the
almistice day window of John
Hoene, dealer in hardware, farm
operating equipment and auto
mobiles at Cottonwood, Idaho.
The main feature of the window
was battleship made entirely
of hardware, and it is reported
by Mr.. Hoene that it was a great
drawing card.
Resource and ingenuity were
used IN shaping tools from the
shelves into this appropriate
symbol of armistice day, as is
evident from the photo. The
window was trimmed by AL Her.
both, of the Hoene Hardware Co.,
and it is only typical of the re-
putation he mas attained as a
window trimmer.
"Mr. Hel'both set a statue of
the Goddess of Liberty in the
left background to show that
what had been a war-like scene
a year ago, was now best sym
bolized by the Figure of Peace
Some idea of the ingenuity used
in making the battleship is evi,
dent from the fact that vacuum
bottles were the tunnels, electric
lamp protectors the crowsnests
pipe fitting the broadside guns
screw eyes the port holes, and {
self-basting roaster the forward
turrett."

FEAR FOR HIS SAFETY.

The Nezperce Herald in its
last weeks issue said as follows:
The news appearing in Mon
days papers OF the capture by
Russian bolshevist forces of Am
erican soldiers and Red Cross
workers in Eastern Siberia gave
concern to the people of this
community for the welfare of
Chancey Wallace, one of our best
known citizens, who is a captain
in the Red Cross service and has
been stationed at an American
outpost, three days travel east
of Vladivostok, since last sum-
mer. No word has been receiv-
ed from him by friends here or
at any other point, so far as can
be ascertained for over three
months, and it had been his Gus
tom to keep in touch with affairs
at home by a fairly regular cor
responuence.
He went to Siberia last spring
with a party of 21 Red Cross
people, sailing from Seattle.
Mr.. Wallace is known in this
community, having some few
years ago held the position of
deputy state land appraiser for
northern Idaho. He is also a
pioneer of the Nezperce section
and at different intervals has
made numerous trips to Cotton
wood where he has a large cir
Gle of friends who are also deeply
concerned over his safety.
