granted membership in the Associa-

MANY STUDENTS TO
STUDY AGRICULTURE
ENROLMENT FOR SCHOOL OF
PRACTICAL AGRICULTURE :
SECOND SEMESTER is BIG.

| Students representative of all parts
of the state, among them men from
Jerome, Moscow, Craigmont, South
wick, Genesee, Buhl Winchester,
Burlington, Wash, and Red Cloud,
Nebr., have enrolled in the University
of Idaho school of practical agricul-
] ture for the second semester, accord
ing to announcement made today by
Sherman Dickinson, pricipal of the
school, The enrolment is the largest
for second semester work since 1910,
when the short course school was
Opened.
More than so students are register
ed for the short course. Opening
courses are offered to new short
course men, while those who were
registered for the first semester work
are continuing with their advanced
work
"The greatest interest of the short
course men is the farm tractor and
motor operation courses" said Mr..
Dickinson today. Interest in the
federal livestock courses is also keen,
which shows a tendency of the
younger farmers of the state to
swing away from the old established
straight crop raising to varied agri-
pursuits.
Individual tendencies of this kind
are being encouraged. The interest
of the students in various lines Of
activity insures the future Of Idaho
as diversified farming state"

OREGON GOVERNOR
SEES JAP MENACE
CLAIMS JAPANESE QUESTION
ONE OF MOST MOMENTOUS
BEFORE LAW MAKERS

| SALEM, Oregon-(By A. P.)-
Governor Ben W. Olcott, in his mes
sage to the legislature which con
vened today in thirty-first biennia
session said that the question of hov
to meet the Japanese situation in thi.
state may be the "most momentous'
to come before the law makers.
'In my opinion" said the governor
''steps should be taken by means Of
proper legislation to curb the growth
of the Japanese colonies in Oregon;
to preserve our lands and our re-
sources for the people of our own
race and nationality. I believe the
ultimatum should be issued that it is
| the sense of the people of Oregon
speaking through their representa-
tives that this state is state with a
government of Americans, by Ameri-
canism is the predominant asset of
it's citizenry
Here in Oregon the pioneer blood
flows more purely and in a more
nearly undiluted stream than in any
other state of the union. AS preci-
Gus heritage, passd down to US from
those heroic fathers who braved the
perils and the trials and tribulations
of pioneer days, it should be pre-
served unsullied as they gave it to us.
"The Japanese are race high of
culture. They are a courteous peo-
pie, high-minded people; a people of
education and of progress. But they
are not our people We cannot as
simulate them and they cannot as
simulate US. Oil and water will not
mix. | would live in peace and amity
and accord with them but it would
be a peace and amity and accord
which extended the hand of friend
ship across the sea. So long as Jap
anese and Americans attempt to till
their acreage side by side so long
will here be enmity and distrust.
Centuries of history have shown US
that Mongul and Caucasian must each
work out his destiny alone.
'"There should be peace between the
two nations but conditions as they
now exist can serve no other purpose
than to eventually lead these two ma
tions to the brink of serious eventu-
alities. | believe the Japanese should
work out his destiny in Asia in the
continent which God allotted to him
and under God we should work out
our own destiny on the American
continent"
Governor Olcott recommended that
the legislature submit to the people
for approval a measure providing |
payment of at least $25 a month to I
soldiers sailors and marines of Ore
gon for each month Of actual service

He suggested law putting bond
houses under control of the bank

posed for other northwestern states.

MURDER OR SUICIDE
IN P0TLATCH STORE
JACK" CUMMERFORD, MAN
AGER OF SHOE DEPARTMENT
SHOT THROUGH HEART.

A mysterious death occurred at
Potlatch- early Monday morning. John
Cummerford, manager of the shoe
department of the Potlatch Mercan-
tile Company, was found shot
through the heart with 12-gauge
shotgun when the janitor opened the
doors at $50 am.
Cummerford, who had charge of
the shoe department of the big store
for Is years, arose early this morn
ing and went to the home of the
manager of the drug department and
secured the managers keys, saying
he wanted to get some medicine for
his little child who was sick with the
whooping cough. That was the last
seen of him alive.
When the janitor went to the build
ing at $3.50 he heard groans coming
from the hardware department and
going there found Cummerford
Writhing on the floor in pool of
blood. The janitor ran to the home
of George Cummerford, brother,
and accompanied by him returned to
the store. When they reached the
store, John, or "Jack" as he was
familiarly known, was dead.
The shot gun had been held against
his breast over the heart when dis
charged and the powder had burned
his clothing This led to the belief
that it was a case of suicide. But
relatives and friends who know Of no
reason for suicide believe Gunner
ford discovered burglar in the
store and the burglar shot him. One
of the new guns of the hardware de-
partment was used.
Coroner Grice was notified early |
Monday morning and left on the noon
train for Potlatch to hold an inquest. |
"Jack" Cummerford as he was ia
kown, had wide circle of
friends and acquaintance here. His |
father, Dr. Cummerford, veterin-
arian, was at one time represen-
tativesfn the legislature from Latah
county but is now resident of Can
ada. The young man, who was about
b years old, leaves widow and one
child, his parents, and several broth
ers and sisters.

Idaho Products TO Tennessee.

That Idaho alfalfa is being shipped
by the trainload to Tennessee for
distribution over the southern states,
and that Idaho potatoes are being
eaten by citizens of the south, is the
news brought to Moscow in letter
from the j. L. Nessly Company, com
missioner brokers of Memphis, writ
ten by J. L. Nessly, the president, to
his brother, ]. e. Nessly, of Moscow.
The latter says in part: eve expect
full trainload of alfalfa hay and
meal from Idaho this week. We are
getting this from about Twin Falls,
but perhaps it could work from Mos
cow, if you raise alfalfa in large
quantities there. We also handle
Idaho potatoes, for which there is
good market in the south"

New York, Dec, 2I.--Tcn majol
league baseball players, several d
them in that select coterie known al
stars were affiliated with new clubs
to-day as the result of two big deal-
consummated last night.
The most important trade WITS that

tain and shortstop of the Yankees, and
three Of his teammates, Rip Collins
Jack Quinn and Bill Percy, all pitch
ers, to the Boston Red Sox in exchange
for Everett Scott, shortstop- and pitch
err Joe Bush and Sam Jones. In the
other deal "Stuffy" McInnis, Red Sox
first bascman, was sent to Cleveland in
exchange for Elmer Smith, hard hit
ting right fielder; George Burns, first
baseman. and Joe Harris, another first
sacker. who is to be converted into an
outfielder.
Harris is under suspension for hav-
ing jumped his reserve clause to join
the Oil City, Pa, "0utlaws,'' and he
figures in the trade on condition that
he can win reinstatement. If he fails
to get back into the fold, 1t is under
stood that thesRed Sox will get Doc.

In announcing the Yankee-Red Sox
trade Colone. Jacob Rupert. president

WELLS RIVER
Woodsville Decisively Defeats Newport
at Basketball, IS to 20.


To say that Newport was surprised
at the outcome of the basketball game
on Thursday last would be putting il
mildly. Coming with a team heralded
as ore of the strongest in northern
Vermont they left with the fans won
dering where their reputation was OBJ
tanned. Without doubt Mahoney at Gen.
ter is one of the fastest men seer in
action on the local floor this season.
Playing a game all his own, he covers,
blocks and shoots well. While his bas-
kets in this game were not numerous
his guarding prevented Richardson
from scoring at many points of the
game. For the locals, Carl Carlson was
there with seven baskets while Tay-
lor, playing guard, was able to annex
five. In the first period Woodsville
played Newport off their feet running
up a total of is to 9 for their oppo-
nents. The second period was a little
slower as the pace set by the locals
was too fast to keep. In the third pc
Rod Woodsville shot the ball round
the hall several times with Newport
in full pursuit before an opening came
to cage 1t, Basketball of the nature
displayed in this gam should fil the
halls and the extreme good feeling that
prevailed between the players of both
teams was more than apparent to the
