than American citizens, in the opin-
ion of the board of directors of

met here Saturday afternoon, This
organization, which embraces all south
ern Idaho, went on record unanm-
iously at the Saturday meeting as
opposing foreigners becoming men,
bers of the Union. Sentiment was ex-
pressed that steps should be taken to
prevent aliens, not entitled to citizen
ship, taking over Idaho farm lands
Every member of the board of direct
ors pledged himself to take up the
matter in his own district with a view
of obtaining legislation on the sub
ject by the next Idaho Legislature.

REFUSE PETITION

The city council Wednesday even

HARMONY RULES.

MEET|NC.H { RE
Convention Passes With
out Ripple; Primary
Never Bobs it's Head; IL
Delegates Named.

Harmony, utterly complete, reigned
in Republican circles Tuesday at the
Canyon county convention. Not one
rifle arose to stimulate interest and
SO quiet were proceedings that ad-
journment found many delegates al
ready enroute home, satisfied that no
excitement would quicken their inter
est in things political that afternoon.
The direct primary never bobbed its
head except in the Nampa commits
sioners district where, at district
caucus, George Van de Steeg, leader
of the direct primary fight in the low
err legislative house two years ago,
found himself shy support to attend
the state convention The action of
the Nampa caucus was upheld on the
floor by convention vote.
From the primary standpoint, the
Canyon county delegation of II, four
from each of the three commission
er's districts, to the state convention,
is neither strictly an anti-nrimary
delegation, nor. are those who ap-
prove the primary in majority. I'm
instructed upon any question, the
delegation goes open handed with but
one restriction, that of the unit rule
which was passed by the county con-
vention delegates without opposition.
Resolutions were passed approving
the candidacy of Dan Banks, state
treasurer, and of H. c. Baldridge of
Parma who seeks the nomination for
lieutenant governor. Delegates to the
state convention. are loyal to these
Canyon county men.
: Resolutions drafted by COMMITTEES
headed by J. H. GIBSON of Caldwell
were brief on questions Of public poll
teal interest. No mention was made
of state and county affairs, the one
clause simply approving the Idaho
/ Republican congressional represent
atives as follows:
We call attention to the splendid
: work of our delegation in con-
} gress. In Senator William E.
I Borah we have a great and pa
!, triotic national leader, in Senator
Il Frank r. Gooding, an earnest and
af able worker for the public good.
81 We feel that the Republicans of
Idaho can be proud of these men.

REPORT REVEALS
DEPRESSION IN
AUTO INDUSTRY
General Motors Net Sales
Last Year, S225,621,-
ITO, Against S370.288,-
235 in 1920.

New York, March 5.-The seri-
GUS effects of the depression OF
1921 on the automobile industry
were stri.ingly Illustrated in the
annual report of the General Mo-
tors corporation, issued today.
Net sales for the last year
amounted to $225,261,110 against
$370,2S8,235 in 1920 and the cor
poration's total business for 1921
fell to s304,4S7,243 as compared
with $567,320,603 in the previous
year.
Commenting on the report,
President Pierre S. Dupont said:
1.-The automobile industry. in
common with many other impor-
tant industries, has passed through
a year of unprecedented difficult
ties and hardships, 1921 having
marked a period of drastic defla-
ton from the extraordinary expan-
sion which began in 1919 and ex-
tended through the first half of
1920.
During the period of this ex-
pansion, tho corporation extended
its manufacturing facilities and
provided for production on an en-
larged scale to meet the demands
which 1t was expected would con-
tinue.
"The plans and policies which
have guided the management have
met in the entire abandonment of
certain of the corporations former
products and the change in design
and improvement in quality of 9TH
er lines. which have involved
heavy losses in the liquidation of
stock and obsolete materials"

COWBOYS REUNION AT
MEADOW CITY MAY BE
CALLED OFF THIS YEAR

(SrcclJl Correspondence 10 The journal
Las Vegas. March 5,-The New
Mexico Cowboys reunion, the most
picturesque western exhibition of
forsemanship and roping held IN
this part of the southwest. may be
called off this year. The 1922 re-
union would have been the eighth,
the rodeO having boon founded in
1915 and having been held every
year since on dates centering about
tho Fourth of July. A question
naire sent by the Chamber of
Commerce to its members reveals
the fact that business and profess
sional men do not favor the con-
tinuance of the reunion, possibly
because the annual raising OF
$4,000 in prize money has become
irksome. Business men have de-
clared always, however. that the
reunion business brings them back
more in trade than they put out
in subscriptions. The show an
nually brings into the city from
1000 to 1000 people.
The returned missionaries
show a strong sentiment for a
soldiers bonus measure, to be
passed by congress. and the devo-
ton by the Chamber of Commerce
of considerable energy toward de.
veloping the agricultural resource
es. To the surprise of many. the
membership Of the chamber seems
opposed to devoting much time
and money to the advertising Of
the climate and scenery toward
bringing in tourists The senti-
ment seems to be to build up Las
Vegas prestige as a fine school
and residence city. and to develop
the lands hereabouts into pr oduc-
tive dry and irrigated farms

Campaign Is Opened in
Dublin, Urging Acceptance
of the AngIo-IriSh Treaty;
Big Crowds Out.
lr, rhr Assoclntcd Press.l

Dublin, March (by the Asso-
ciated Press. 1.-The crowds when
gathered today for the opening OF
the campaign in favor of accept
ance of the Anglo-Irish treaty Were
notable not only because OF their
vast proportions, but also because
Of the high degree of enthusiasm
evinced.
The orators. In addition to Mi
chael Collins and Arthur Griftlth'
included Joseph McGrath, MINIS
ter of labor; William CosgroVe,.
minister for home affairs, and
other leaders in the provisional
government. Two platforms were
constantly employed by the speak
ers.
With the exception of n minor
flag incident, when girls and wom-
en- tore down a free state t'i-col,,
or, perfect order was maintained
by the republican police.
Mr.. Collins, in a long speech. de-
Tended the treaty. He asserted that
once the free state was establish
ed, the union of northeast Ulster
with the remainder OF ireland was
certain. He expressed determine
tion to proceed with the estab-
lishment Of a police force, despite
tho warnings Of Eamon de Va
lera. 1t would not be a political
force to protect any special sec
tion, but would be for the protec.
tion of every citizen In Ireland
Mr.. Griffith's address was brief
Both he and Mr.. Collins pointed
TO British troops leaving Ireland
as proof that Ireland had not been
betrayed
The position in the northeast,
Mr.. Collins said, was not ideal, but
there were only two alternative Is
sues-coorcion or Cancellation
Whichever alternative was adopted
must be adopted Fundamentally.
All were agreed against coercion.
but the treaty contained forces for
persuasion which would bring tho
northeast into bankruptcy IL it
stayed out of the free state.
The speaker asked why British
agents were being attacked and
their arms taken away from then.
when there was no war in progre 8,
unless it was intended TO turn
those arms against the people.

BAND Of MASKED
MEN TERR0RIzES
TAFT CITIZENRY

Taft. Calf, March 5.-The mys-
teriouo persons CARRIED in pillow
eases and sheets who have been
terrorizing the citi2enry here for
the past week or ten days, gave
nervous citizens chance to calm
themselves today,
The tension continued high,
however, and citizens who dis
cussed the situation did so only
after pledges that they would not
he named or quoted. They usually
took the inquirer into a back room
and locked the door before ventur-
ing upon a conversation on the
subject.
1t appears well established that
there have been five instances OF
violence, after each of which the
person attacked has left the COM
munity.
But there are rumors Of scores
of cards and letters received from
the "Ku Klux Khan" warning the
recipients against various nrac-
tees. and sometimes merely telling
them to get out of the community.
without giving reasons. ...
Persons who have seen these
warnings are inclined to believe
some rganized body is sending a
few Of them; and that this same
organized body is responsible for
the PRINCIPAL attacks mentioned,
but that the bulk of the other
warnings have been written by in
dividuals or small groups who are
travelling on the reputation for
terrorism caused by the acts of the
original group.
This view apparently is support
cd by the fact that in Mt least one
instarce the warning was repud.-
ated in q later communication
signed "Ku KluX Khan"
District Attorney Jesse r, Dor
sey. seen at Bakersfield today,
said the situation so far had been
such that 1t was almost impossible
for county authorities to take
any intelligent action,
Dorsey said those who had been
actively attacked by masked men
had departed without pausing to
complain to the authorities. He
said he believed the outbreak
purely sporadic and unaffiliated
with any general movement, but
he was taking all possible steps
to prevent its growth.
The position expressed by Sher-
If Newell. was much the same.
