Rights of Public and
Publishers
Defined

The damage suit tried in the dis
trict court last week against The
Idaho Republican has been given
very little publicity or explanation
to the public until now, because OF
the fact that it had not been tried
in court. This office has always
acted on the theory that when q
matter was placed on the docket 1t
was the duty of the public and the
press to let the courts pass upon II
before being aired by other means.
There have been times when this Of
flee has been placed at much disad-
vantage because other members OF
the press did not observe this rule,
but in recent years local publishers
have observed it more and respected
the courts more. We have received
many inquiries about the libel case
filed by DR.. Whistler during the past
nine months and In Difference to our
readers we now give the main facts
in the case and the law applying to
libel.
Briefly stated, libel is the publ
cation or circulation by printing,
writing, pictures or otherwise, OF
mater that tends to blacken the good
name of the dead or to humiliate
and embaarrass the living or hold
them up to public censure or
ridicule.
In May, 1919 we received consid-
cradle information from Mr.

about an arson case in which he was

BIG CATTLE ROUND
UP STARTS JUNE II
Indian Cattle Mems As
sociation to Build
Coralls

The annual spring roundup on
the reservation will begin on the
twenty-seventh of June under the
leadership of Ralph Dixey.
The Indians and white men join
forces in this work, there being
about 5000 cattle to be handled.
They will cover all the reservation
north of the pole line between Fort
Hall and the Blackfoot river dam.
The branding will start at the
coralls about mile above old Fort
Hall on Lincoln creek.
The largest number Of cattle on
the reservation are owned by the
Indian Cattle Mems association, who
are having coralls built at Fort Hall
Indian agency for the purpose OF
holding the September sales Of fat
steers and dry cows at that place
and for shipping by rail. For several
years they have been breeding up
their herd, using pure bred males OF
the Hereford stock and they are pro-
ducing a better type of cattle than
in former years.
The Indian Cattle Mems associa-
tion have realized the fact that they
were not selling to the best advant-
age by offering whole bands of cattle
for sale in bunch, there being so
few bidders who could handle that
many, that they did not receive sat
isfactory returns. They recognized
the fact that the white men on the
farms are anxious to get small
punches of cattle to feed on their
farms during the fall and winter
and that these white farmers were
also handicapped in securing cattle
for that purpose. They had to 90
out and hunt around for exactly
what the Indians had to sell and the
Indians were trying to get bidders
from a distance to come in and buy
their herds. The Indian cattlemen
are solving these two problems to.
gether by building system Of
coralls at Fort Hall agency that will
enable them to hold their cattle and
feed them during the progress Of
the sales and they will offer them
for sale in bunches to suit the
wishes of the farmers living in this
lOCdllLy. lid Wall CAoUAO SuO AoA ~
ers to secure what they want neal
home and will enable the Indians
to sell to people near home. 1t will
increase the number of bidders the
Indians will have bidding on their
stock. 1t will make it possible for
the farmers to bid on such numbers
as they can handle. Heretofore the
farmers have been handicapped
more or less by having to go and bid
in large herds and then arrange
among themselves for division Of
the herd or bunch purchased. There
will be two or three car loads Of
steers and cows to be sold at the end
of the June roundup and the sale
will be held at Fort Hall or at Ralph
Dixey's farm, a mile southwest o1
Blackfoot.
This roundup will start on june
27 at Old Fort Hall on Lincoln creek
and will last about week. White
men having cattle on the reserva
tion are requested to be present tt
do their share of the work and tt
look after their own cattle.

JUNIOR FARM BU-
REAU ORGANIZED
Boys Are To Receive
More Aid From
Experts

Junior farm bureau clubs have
been organized thruout the county
to keep the club workers in touch
with each other and enable the
leaders in the work to meet with all
of them at once and thus make their
work and advice more effective. One
of these clubs has been organized at
Riverside, Groveland, Moreland,
School District No. 12, Thomas,
Pingree, Springfield, Rockford and
Blackfoot.
Over $50 boys and girls are men,
bers of these clubs and each has his
own project to keep care of and none
of the members are over 18 years of
age. Each has his choice Of what
he shall do whether he rasies pigs,
sheep, poultry, potatoes, corn,
garden, beans, rabits or one or two
of many other things which he may
care to take. Mr., Murry, club
leader for southeastern Idaho and
Max Feldbaum, agriculture teacher
of the high school, organized the
clubs and they plan to meet approx
mately every two weeks.
During the summer the professor
of animal husbandry Of the Univer-
sity OF Idaho and Mr.. Kerr will come
and visit the clubs and look over
their work and improve it II possi-
BILE. Crop experts will also visit the
club members and give them prac-
tice in judging farm crops. All this
work is done under the supervision
of the county farm bureau in CO.
operation with the high school de-
partment of agriculture.
Parents are enthusiastic in theil
support of the work because it is
given to boys at the time of least
ambition and guides them thru the
dangerous part of their lives and
they learn to work and to study and
learn and take an interest in the
things of life which they cannot OBJ
tain by jobing from flrst one thing
to another as is done on the average
farm.

HOW TO POISON
CRASSHOPPERS
Kill Them Before They
\ Enter the
Fields

For the past week the county
agent has been holding grasshopper
poisoning demonstrations thruOut
the seed growing districts of Bing-
ham county. Altho this pest is
scattered quite generally thru the
county it is more abundant where
there are acres of uncultivated land,
high knolls or waste areas.
Grasshoppers lay their eggs in the
fall of the year in hard ground along
roads, ditch banks and waste places.
In the spring the eggs hatch and the
small wingless hoppers can be seen
abundantly in these regions. AS they
grow older they hop into the fields
and feed there. Later they grow
wings and travel more rapidly, TAX
ing vegetation as they go. At the
present time they can be controlled
by broadcasting poison bran mash
along ditch banks, roadsides and
waste places and along the edge of
infested fields. Later it may be
necessary to poison thruout the
fields. In one section the grasshop-
pers are stripping fields of grain and
would destroy the whole crop but
for the poison scattered in advance
of them.
The materials found to be cheap
est and most effective are as fol-
lows:
Bran 25 pounds, white arsenic l
pound, amyl acetate 3-4 ounc, cheap
mOlasses Q quarts. water ga gallons.
In mixing large lots 100 pounds
can be mixed at a time in tight
wagon box, on a cement floor or
canvas. Small lots can be mixed In
wash tub. Mix as follows:
Mix twenty-five pounds bran and
one arsenic dry. Pour two quarts
mollasses into l " gallons of water
and stir till dissolved. Add 3-4
ounce amyl acetate e large table.
spoonsful) to the liquid and pour
over bran and thoroly mix. Add
enough water so that when the mash
is squeezed in the hand moisture ap-
pears, but does not drip from it.
Spread broadcast over infected
areas.
In order to combat the pest sue
cessfully communities should order
the material collectively so as to
have it on hand when needed for 1t
takes time to get these materials.
Everyone in an infested territory
should be interested in this work as
it means dollars and cents to you.

Jury RETURNS VERDICT FOR RE-
PUBLICAN IN WHISTLER LIBEL SUIT

the defendant and in which he was
convicted mainly on the testimony
of girl who afterwards made affi-
davit that her testimony given in
court was false. He appealed the
case and as it was then pending de-
cision by the supreme court we did
not publish anything about it. In
December, 1919, the supreme court
decided by majority of one vote
that he must serve his sentence, and
when he was on his way to sur
render himself and enter the prison,
we interviewed Mr.. Whistler and re-
ceived his statment of the case down
to that date and published a state
ment that combined what he told
and what we already knew of his
troubles growing out of the prosecu-
tion.
In that statement was a mistake,
but we did, not know 1t until long
afterwards-we said that the fire
and prosecution happened at Rex
burg, when in fact it happened at
Weiser. The rest of the article was
practically, correct as published and
was strong statement to the effect
that Whistler was being wronged by
being sent to prison on the testi-
mony Of girl who was unworthy of
belief because Of her having denied
her own statements. The article
told a number of circumstances Of
which Whistler was the unfortunate
victim, such as the loss of the girls
affidavit before they could show it
to the governor and the pardon
board, the fact that the governor
went east just at critical time in
Whisler's affairs and the girls hav-
ing gone to Texas at time when
