POSTPONE trial
OF SMALL'S CASE
ILLINOIS GOVERNOR SEEKS 60
DAY P0STPONEMENT CON-
SPIRACY CHARGES.

Waukegan Ill-(A P.)-Governor
Small Monday asked a sixty day post
pOnement of his trial on charges of
conspiracy to embezzle state funds.
He stated that his presence was need
ed at the state capitol in connection
with letting road contracts.
Not since the impeachment and re-
moval of William Sulzer from the
governorship of New York in 1918
has the governor of any American
state faced charges so serious,
which have attracted the widespread
attention as those pending against
Len Small, twenty-eighth governor of
Illinois, and his fellow defendants,
Lieut.-Gov. Fred E. Sterling and
Vernon Curtis, a banker of Grant
Park, III.
In Illinois l04 years of statehood
only two other governors have ever
been indicted while in office, and in
each of the previous cases the court
dismissed the charges without trial
because of their trivial nature.
Others Charged Jointly
Although Governor Small and
Messrs. Sterling and Curtis are
charged jointly with conspiracy to
defraud the state through embezzle-
ment of funds from the state treasury
during the terms of Mr.. Small and
Mr.. Curtis as state treasurer, only the
governor will go on trial here Mon
day. Mr.. Curtis, whose case was
brought to Lake county from Sanga-
mon county with that of the govern
or, was granted a separate trial by
Judge Claire E. Edwards, presiding
in circuit court here Lieut. Governor
Sterling did not ask for change of
venue and his case is still pending
in the Sangamon county circuit court
at Springfield.
Originally there were four indict-
ments against Messrs.. Small, Sterling
and Curtis, three of which involved
the governor, but only one-the con-

SENATE STARTS ON
FOUR POWER PACTS
NEW OPENS DISCUSSIONS ON PA
CIFIC TREATIES Is
PROMINENT.

Washington-(A. P.)-There is nc
alliance" in the four-power Pacific
treaties nor are there any obligations
to use force, Senator New, Indiana
republican member of the foreign re-
lations committee, declared Monday
on behalf of the administration in
opening the senate discussion on the
treaties. New declared that the treat
les gave safeguards for peace to the
United States and that they will not
impair American sovereignty.
He made detailed comparison of
the treaties with the League of Ma
tions and asserted that the treaties
are "cooperative'' while the league is
drastic and compulsory and re-
quires submission of all questions to
a council.
Question President Harding
A resolution asking President
Harding what effect ratification of
the four-power Pacific treaty would
have on the Lansing-Ishii agreement
between the United States and apan
between the United States and Japan
was adopted by the senate
Senator Borah presented the reso-
luton. 1t was agreed to without roll
call after a short debate in which
Senator Underwood, Alabama, demo-
cratic leader and member of the arms
conference delegation declared that
in his opinion the word agreement"
would be entirely wiped out by the
series of conference treaties.

BUHL CARAVAN LEADER
Brings PEOPLE west

Spokane-(A. P.)-William D. Scott
who last September arrived at Buhl
Idaho from New York, with a caravan
of % families of homeseekers, is to
bring second party west this year
for settlement in the Spokane valley.
The new expedition will contain
more than SO families and number
over 200 persons The caravan will
leave New York late in July and reach
Spokane in September, as the jour
ney, like last years will be made by
automobile.
Mr.. Scott was an advertising man
in Brooklyn for many years. On a
trip west he was impressed with an
adea-that of coming to this region
ny motor caravan, as the pioneers
travelled in their prairie schoorers.
He discussed his idea with Governor
Davis of Idaho, and learned desirable
for farming was available near Buhl,
in the southern part of the state.
So many people, friends and friends
of friends of Mr.. Scott wanted to make
the trip, that Mr.. Scott was forced to
set up standard of eligibility
SO, 900 in cash and an automobile per
family. Even then hundreds of ap
plications were received. From the
selected to make the journey.
The trip was an entire success, so
much so that Mr. Scott looks forward
to this years caravan with consider
able confidence. The caravan left
New York July 23, and reached Buhl,
,093 miles away, in late September.

TO ELIMINATE SHEEP
FROM GAME PRESERVES

Boise-(A. P.)-Request that sheep
be eliminated from the game pre-
serves in Idaho, made to Henry c.
Wallace, secretary of agriculture by
Otto M. Jones, state game warden, has
provoked considerable discussion
here.
Mr.. Jones told secretary Wallace he
thought the time had some for making
the change, as sheepmen of the state
had indicated that there are great un-
aprlied-for grazing land areas out
side the game preserves, and because
the number of sheep in Idaho is less
by a million and half that it was
year ago.
R. H. Rutledge, district forester,
has conferred with Mr.. Jones regard
ing recommendation but the details of
their confidence have not been an
nouncd. 1t is understood that the for
estry service does not favor the pro-
posed transfer because of the loss
of revenue from grazing rentals. Mr.
Jones has declared his intention of
being present at the grazing lands al
lotment meeting at Ogden, March 16,
to oppose allotment of game pre-
serves.
Hugh Sproat, president of the Ida
ho Wool Growers association claims
Mr.. Jones recommendation is not be-
ing taken seriously by either the
sheep men or the forest service.

PLAN PURCHASE OF
GOOD DAIRY STOCK
FARMERS WOULD SHIP IN CAR
LOAD OF ANIMALS FOR
LATAH COUNTY.

A meeting of farmers interested in
purchasing good dairy stock has been
held at the Farmers store in Moscow.
This was the third meeting of this
nature held during the past six weeks.
County Agent Fletcher was elected
temporary chairman of the meeting
and asked to carry on correspondence
for the farmers. The meeting was ad-
dressed by Mr.. Gabby, dairy herds
man for the University of Idaho, and
Mr.. Fletcher.
Farmers present at the meeting
wanted a total of more than one car
load Of dairy COWS, but it was the conz
census of opinion that if dairy cattle
are to be shipped in from other states
the farmers should find out how many
cattle are wanted in the county as a
whole and then arrange to send re-
representatives. TO purchase the cattle.
The overhead expenses per animal
will decrease as the number of cattle.
purchased increases The meeting
elected a committeeman in each COM.
munity of the county to bring the pro-
posed purchase of dairy cattle to the
attention of the farmers of the COM
munity and get information in regard
to cattle wanted.
Name Committeeman
Committeeman listing dairy cattle
wanted in the territory tributary to
Moscow are: Moscow, F. M. Gustaf-
son, H. r. Abel, and Theo, Roster;
Flanagan Creek, H. Hugo; Little Pot
latch, John Randall, jr., Pine Grove,
L. e. Cay; and Viola, e. P. Palmer.
Those present at the meeting be-
lieved that Latah county farmers would
be apt to get the best grade of dairy
stock by purchasing good two year
old heifers, bred to calf late in the
spring or during the summer. Judge
ing by the experience of farmers of
southern Idaho who have shipped in
cattle during the past winter, such
animals should cost $50 to $95 laid
down in Moscow, with all overhead
charges figured in. 1t appears that
farmers needing financial assistance
to purchase cattle will be able to bor-
row all necessary funds from their
local banks, so no steps have been
taken to form any central loan asso-
citation.
There will be another meeting at
the Farmers store in Moscow on
at 1.3O D. m. All desiring
stock should attend that meeting as
definite arrangements for the ship
ment of cattle will be completed at
that meeting.

GAME OFFICIAL AFTER
deer KILLING CULPRITS

Thorough investigation of the kill
ing of three deer on Wednesday in
Wauncher gulch, near Kendrick, is
being made by l.. E. Brooks, deputy
state game warden, according to an
nouncement Monday. The case is
looked upon as one of the worst in
the history Of the county as the deer
are not fit for human consumption
at this time of the year.
Deputy Game Warden Brooks was
called Thursday to Investigate the
case and found that three deer had
been killed. One buck had been kill
ed-outright and a large doe had been
crippled SO badly that Mr.. Brooks was
forced to kill the animal The kill
ers had apparently killed another ami
NAL and had made away with it.
The big doe, wounded was found
by the roadside and killed by Mr..
Brooks and the buck was also found
close to the road, having run a short
distance before dropping dead.
II don't know as yet who the par
ties were but every effort is being
made to find out and prosecution will
follow said Mr.. Brooks. 1T is the
worst case l have ever known since
I have been game warden and l look
upon the matter as criminal. The
deer are not fit for human consump-
ton at this time of the year and the
approach of fawning time makes the
dffense doubly serious"
Mr.. Brooks reported that there
were many deer around Wauncher
gulch. The winter has driven them in
TO seek food on the sides of the can
yon where the snow has disappeared.

SOLDIERS BONUS BILL
INTRODUCED in HOUSE

Washington-(A. P.)-The soldiers
bonus bill was introduced in the house
late Monday afternoon and will be
formally reported on Tuesday, Chair
man Fordney announced Monday
noon after the executive session of
the majority of the members of the
house ways and means committee.
Fordney said that the committee
had reason to believe that President
Harding is not opposed to the certifi-
cate loan provision written into the
bill under which national and state
banks and trust companies can be
organized as loan holders of the GER
tificates. Under this plan the amount
loaned on the certificates will equal
fifty per cent of the adjusted service
