Fair Accounts in
Bad Condition; May
Be Audited Soon

The accounts of the Blackfoot
fair last summer and fall were not
kept well in hand and at the time of
the large volume of business pur-
chasing and building for the 1920
fair, there was not sufficient control
Of the purchasing and expenditure of
money. In study of the situation by
the board of county commissioners
the county clerk and the editor of
The Republican it spread consider
able CONSERVATION among them and
the commissioners are considering
employing an expert auditor to audit
the accounts and give report upon
1t. While the matter is yet fresh in
peoples minds and report any ir-
regularities if they exist.
The Republican central committee
of this county adopted the policy two
years ago Of having all the county
accounts audited as often as every
two years for the purpose of dis
covering and correcting mistakes.
OF making every officer save his
record If he misuses money and to
serve warning on every one who is
committed with public trust be re-
quired to face his record. AS we
said before the accounts of the fair
are in bad condition, but with the
prospects Of being audited by an ex-
pert accountant we withhold further
publicity and further comments.

pany; Markham Cheever, chief en-
gineer and v. Y. Davoud, valuation
engineer. The latter experts testi-
fed as to the methods pursued by the
company in taking its inventory and

ings, the one concerning the Idaho

gregate values and in determining of
polices for valuation and rate fixing,

shown by the assessment rolls in the
year 1920 is about $17,000,000,
made upon an assessment of about
80 per cent of the true values. If
the assessing were done on a 100 per
cent valuation, the total values of
property in the county would stand
at about $55,000,O0O The bonded
Indebtedness of Bingham county on
the first of January, 1921, was $780,
600, none of which will be due for
eight years and the warrant indebt-
edness was $46,523.37, thus making
the total Indebtedness of the county
at that time $646,523.37 which
equals only Az per cent of the as
sessed valuation Of the county or
about one and one-third per cent of
the actual valuation of the county.
Bingham county has 104 miles of
graded roads constructed chiefly
with the money received from the
sale of the 100000 worth of bonds
and it has five and a half miles of
bitulithic paving constructed from
the bond sale and is laying about
mile and half of other bitulithic
paving in the spring of 1921.

TRYING TO MAKE
BOTH ENDS MEET
Local Farmer Tells of
Problems Which He
is Studying

A good many farmers are III
against hard proposition this
spring and are at loss to know how
to conduct their farm operations fo1
the spring and summer without
money or with the money that is
available. A farmer living a few
miles out of Blackfoot, gave us the
following statement, the last of the
week, showing the problems on
which he was studying:
Last fall he, threshed his wheat
crop as early as ,he could and had
535 bushels which he marketed at
1926 hundred. This sale of wheat
he said, was the only smart or lucky
thing he had done in the whole
course of the year. He had 400
sacks of potatoes and they were so
unsaleable due to the low price and
lack of demand that he stored them
and finding that they had been
touched little with frost in the field,
he had to sort them all. BY the time
he got done he had added consider
able labor expense to the 400 sacks,
had to throw out lot of sappy po-
tatoes and had somewhat less than
the original 400 sacks. He had 200
tons of hay in addition to what he
expected to need for his own use, had
twenty-four hogs and some milk
cows and he got carload of COWS
and carload of steers, thinking to
feed this 200 tons of hay and some
beet pulp and corn and make some
money, thereby marketing his pro-
duce, turning the raw product into
the finished product as people say.
Accordingly he got the two car
loads of cattle on the farm, fed them
$500 worth of corn which he pur-
chased, sold what hay he could by
hauling load to town whenever he
could get an order, collected the
money for the hay and spent it buy
ing beet pulp which he hauled to the
farm to feed these same cattle. BY
the time the cattle were all as fat as

Diplomatic Question

WASHINGTON, April Extra
dition from Germany of Grover
Cleveland Bergdoll, draft evader, is
a diplomatic question and is in the
hands of the state department,
Secretary Weeks says in a letter to
Senator Capper Of Kansas, made pub
lie tonight. The secretary added,
however, that the war department
would "use every effort to have
Bergdoll returned to the custody of
the United States military authorit-
ies."
State department officers refused
to day to discuss reports that Canada
has been asked to extradite Bergdoll
for violation of Canadian passport
regulations when he departed from
there for Germany. Secretary Weeks
said such action would not surprise
him.
The war secretary in his letter dis
closed that as soon as it was ascer-
tanned Bergdoll was in Germany,
Brigadier General Allen, command
ing American forces on the Rhine, re-
quested the authorities of the Baden
government, where Bergdoll had
sought refuge, to return him to the
United States.
90 The Baden government" the let
ter continued, refused the request
on the ground Bergdofl was not in
the class of military offenders whose
extradition was provided for by the
armistice."

Sixty-Four Patients are
Released on Parole
From Hospital ~.

praise God from Whom all bless

Praise Him all creatures here be-
| low; e.o IS
"Praise Him above, ye heavenly
praise Father, Son and Holy
Ghost"
In simple grandeur the notes and
words of the old doxology arose from
half thousand throats; a stalwart,
white-headed Hawaiian senator and
pastor spoke solemn benediction,
and sixty-four men and women
oncelepers, filed between the lava
pillars to Kalihi's gates to freedom,
back to a world from which they
have been outcasts, back to home
which some at least had believed
they never would see again.
Science had won another great bat
tie with the scoufge Of the ages.
The sixty-four patients who were
released on parole the other day
from the Kalihi hospital after treat
constituted the third division so re-
turned to their homes. In all 142
cases have been paroled during the
past two years and not a single one
has been sent back owing to recur-
renee of the disease.
Call Place Mt. Happy
Officially the institution is known
as Kalihi hospital, but it's inmates
call it by another name, strange
name, unless one has seen the cheer
fulness born of hope that prevades
the air there. 1t is mount Happy"
On the day the sixty and four
were paroled, friends and relatives
gathered from far and near in the
island to greet those who came out
of the vale of shadow. Behind
hedge stood one group of smiling in
mates, behind a frail wire fence an
other happy group. One group was
to go back to the world, the other
was to remain for further treatment.
Still another group, and larger,
was gathered on the other side of
Iuc WlIc lClCc, LlCy WCIC LHO AlOCH-
ers, fathers, brothers, sisters, sons,
daughters and friends of the paroled
patients.
Clear Voice Starts Singing
The clear voice of Hawaiian
woman started singing the doxolOgy,
others swelled the volumn and to
the accompaniment of rustling palms
and the hum of a warm trade wind in
the trees the air of thankfulness and
praise carried thru to its last graLl
note.
Stephen Desha, minister of the
gospel and territorial senator, more
than six feet in height, stalwart and
pronounced the bene-
diction in the Hawaiian tongue.
The sixty-four turned to the right
and marched out between the lava
pillars of the big gate to the arms of
their waiting relatives and friends.
