PIONEER BONDS
BRING PREMIUM
Refunding Issue Nets District
$500 Above Face Value
When Sold

Refunding bonds issued by the
Pioneer Irrigation district to the
amount OF $4,000 were sold at $500
premium last week to +. II. Plow-
head, representing the Commercial
bank The bonds draw interest at &
per cent. Only one other bid was
entered, that of an eastern concern.
Officials of the Pioneer Irrigation
district arc more than pleased with
the result of the sale. believeing that
the obtained for the issue warrants
the assumption that Pioneer lrriga-
ton distrist securities arc gilt edged
in the extreme. Some idea of the
value attached to them locally may
be gained from the fact that at least
one bank has been accepting them at
par for about two years. Another
source of satisfaction to officials Of
the district from the issue is the fact
that they found ready local market
with financial facilities here to han
die the issue.
Many eastern bopd purchasing
houscs who enquired regarding the
issue prior to thc sale and then did
not submit as bids have written In
asking results from the sale. They
are being told by return mail what
local opinion is regarding the merits
of these securities on the basis of the
sale.
No fears had been entertained, how
ever. by officials of the district re-
garding the market ability of the
bonds prior to the sale, however,
since frequent oral proposals had been
made to pay par for them before the
bids were opened.

VACATION TELLS
STRANGE STORY
Trouble Follows Trip to Homo
lulu, Caldwell Visitors

To be an ardent devotee of prohi-
bition and then, when away from
home where his sentiments were eth
er unknown or not appreciated, to fall
into the clutches of the law on a
charge of bootlegging. is the fate
which befell Ralph Cakes. according
to story that is going the rounds
here. John Cupples, who also became
familiar with the long arm of the law
at the same time, admits that the al
legations of an accusing populace are
correct. He and Mr.. Cakes did have
a little session with the police force
of Honolulu where they have been
spending the winter.
"Innocents Abroad" or what may
happen to man when he is away
from home, had nothing ON these
two travellers according to the story
which Mr.. Cupples, who recently re-
turned from his Hawaiian trip, rela-
ties.
1t seems that during the course OF
their activities, the police of Hon
olulu came upon Korean who was
all too obviously under the influence
of alcohol and who, in addition, was
just as evidently trying to make away
with boat to which he had no lega
title. He was Immediately taken into
custody
Evidence Is Conclusive.
And because his condition gave rise
to the superstition that must have
found fairly productive source of tn.
liquid which is as forbidden there a.
here, the police proceeded to question
Americans, who might be seen OF
the horizon in fishing boat, had pro
vided him with the alcoholic refresh
ments as a reward if he would stea
the boat 1t sounded not only posi-
bic but quite plausible to the dicta
tors of law and order in Honolulu.
The fishing must have been fine, o
very poor. At any rate it was mid
night before the wayfarers found thei
way to shore. And when they di
land, they landed directly in the hand
of the police who escorted them t.
the police station.
Mr.. Cakes couldn't see any joke i
the prospect of spending the remain
der of the night with the city. l
fact, he protested. That met the us
ual. cav, tell it to the Judge"
In the meantime, however, the Koi
can had sufficiently sobered up tina
/ he realized he must produce some
, thing more than general accusation
: And he vaguely intimated that onl
one of the Americans had been in
: plicated But he couldn't tell whic
, one. This fact convinced the polio
! that his entire story was fabricatio
and they promptly released both NJ
Cupples and Mr.. Cakes.

Bureau Ordered
Reorganized

Washington, Aug. 17.-Reorganiza-

been ordered by Assistant Secretary OF
Labor Post.
today because of conditions indicating
utter disorganization OF the bureau
First steps in the reorganization
were taken by Assistant Secretary Post
July 81, when cCCommissioner Gener-
al of Immigration Caminetti was shorn
of the authority he had exercised OF
making recommendation in appeal
and warrant cases. The department
contended that only the secretary of
labor and the assistant secretary were
empowered by law to exercise judg-
ment in such cases.
On August Ia a memorandum was
prepared by Secretary Post inquiring
into the causes of and remedies for the
disorganized conditions in the bureau
of immigration and it's consequent
inefficiency."
Certain Undesirable" coalitions pre-
vailing in the bureau were ordered
remedied Immediately. These included
besides the enforcement of the decis-
ion affecting the transfer of Judgment
over appeal and warrant cases to the
secretary or assistant secretary of la
Dor, ''the excessive freedom of access
to the immigration bureau during
working hours of persons not officially
connected with the bureau"
To insure the removed of those "un-
desirable" conditions an advisory COM
mittee was appointed to continue the
inquiry.
