MRS. BARGHOORN
SEEKS A DIVORCE
ALLEGES INHUMAN TREATMENT
AGAINST FORMER MOSCOW
BANKER

Many Moscow people, especially
those who have been residents fol
some years, will be interested in the
Barghoorn divorce action, which has
been instituted in the Spokane county
courts by Mrs. Franc Barghoorn, who
seeks a divorce from Sikko Barghoorn
former Moscow capitalist, on the
ground of cruel and inhuman treat
ment, extending over a period of five
years.
Mr.. Barghoorn has Systematically
and continuously found fault with his
wife, Mrs. Barghoorn alleges in her
complaint; has called her abusive and
improper names, and has made un-
just accusations against her She al
leges that on account of her hus-
band devising and carrying out every
scheme possible to humiliate her and
that by his fault finding and quar-
relsome disposition, her health has
been effected until it is no longer
possible to continue the marriage re-
lations
She charges that Mr. Barghoorn,
to prevent her from obtaining her
share of the property in the event
of a divorce, has kept his business
affairs and the nature and location
of his property and investments Sc
cret from her. She asks for an ad-
equate division of the property and
for an order restraining Mr. Barg-
hoorn from disposing, secreting or
removing any of his property pending
tbs divorce action, and that Mr.. Barg-
hoorn be required to make an ac-
counting of all liabilities and assets.
Asks for Children
Mrs. Barghoorn also asks for the
custody of the three children, Sikko
Richard, Catherine Anna, and Will
lam Winston, all minors, who are now
with her, and for reasonable allow
ance for their support. She also
asks that reasonable amount be al
owed her for attorneys fees and suit
expenses.
The BarghOOrnS were married in
this city in 1902 and lived here for
number of years afterward, Mr. Barg-
hoorn being engaged in the banking
and timber business. He acquired a
fortune through his ac-
tivities in Moscow and then moved
to Spokane, where he was engaged
in the banking business, later TAX
ing on bank at North Yakima, which
proved his financial undoing, the bank
failing shortly after it was taken over
by Barghoorn. Barhoorn was charg-
ed with grand larceny in connection
with the failure of the bank, but there
was no evidence to sustain the charge
and the case was dismissed.
BarghOorn is now in Holland visit
in relatives and if is ranOrtad that
he will go from there to the Dutch
East Indies, in the hope of recouping
his fortunes.

BAR EXAMINATION
ENTIRE CLASS SUCCESSFUL L..
HUFF, MOSCOW, MAKES
HIGHEST GRADE

Seven members of the graduating
class of the law school of the Uni
versity of Idaho successfully passed
the state bar examination at Lewis
ton Friday, and were sworn in by
Chief Justice Rice of the Idaho su-
preme court.

tice in Idaho were: Lawrence, Huff,
Moscow; Joshua Evans, American
Falls; Michael Thometz Twin Falls:
Alfred Graft, Occur d'Alene; Herman
F. Beyers, Boise; e. j. Kaufman,
Boise; Eber Wilson, Placerville.
Huff Makes Highest Grade
Lawrence Huff, we'll known bust
ness man of Moscow, and a member
of this years graduating class of the
university, made the highest grade in
the bar examination, which was said
by Justice Rice to be the highest grade
received by anyone taking the exam
ination in several years.
Those taking the examination were
sworn in Friday morning in open
court at IL o'clock by Chief Justice
Rice, with Justices Lee and Bulge
sitting on the bench. Following the
legal ceremonies, Chief Justice Rice
little bit of helpful advice for their
coming careers as lawyers of Idaho.
Glass Passes High
He began by complimenting the
class on it's excellent showing made,
stating that the results of the exam
ination as a whole were far better
than the everage of past years, and
especially good were one or two of the
papers handed in.
Urges Serious Work
''Above all things" said Justice
Rice, "take your law seriously 1t
should be considered as one of the
fine arts, worthy of the best efforts
you can put into it."
He emphasized that at all times
they should strive to recognize GER
tain illegal ethics" which are too
often disregarded by young lawyers
going out into the world to begin their
practice. He pointed out that to gain
the confidence Of court, that they
should be conscientious in never in
presenting evidence or
stating facts to the court, which they
knew to be untrue.
''By observing strictly such recog-
1lZed eIHlcS OF lawyer you CAN gain
a reputation for integrity, honor and
ability in any court in the state Of

Inner in honor of their faculty at
he Majestic cafe. Dean Cockerill
ind Professor Gill were guests of the
lass Professor Evans was unable to

The fact that only one fifth of the
lew attorneys to pass the bar exam
nation the last two years were Idaho

# the Idaho students, as evidence that
here is still plenty of room for Ida

her MONEY MAN" IS
PLAY FOR EVERYONE

The choosing of a play for the vars
ity players is no small task. The first
consideration is always the audience
an actor may want one thing; the
producer another-but the final Judge
rmust7 be the audience. Although the
varsity players are group of college
students with indulgent friends in
many towns who will come to see
whatever they offer and consider the
result "good," there are still many
towns who are unfamiliar WITH their
work and wish only to see a good
show. The requirements of good
show are many. The play for this
season, "Her Money Man." is suppos-
ed to fill the bill. First, it can be
played in two hours. No audience
likes to sit in a theater in summer
much longer than the two hour limit
fixed by the movies. Then the play
develops without change of scene,
thus obviating long waits between
acts-another concession to tbe NOV
les. The play itself is simple in plot
speech There are several eccentric
for those who like the car
toon type of comedy.
MOSt OF the characters are young
people, falling gaily in and out of love
at a seashore resort with the usual
complicating misunderstanding and
final happy ending characteristic of
the lighter comedies. Many and var
led beautiful costumes are displayed |
to feed the eye.
The varsity players are featuring
this year Miss Pickrell in some orig
lnal and eccentric dances, and furn-
Ishing bright and gay music between
acts. In fact, the successful summer
show for everyone has been figured
)ut almost mathematically
"Her Money Man" will be given in
Moscow at the university auditorium
next Wednesday evening June H.

Lloyd George Calls Meeting of
British Cabinet.
New Concessions Planned for
Land of PharaOhS.

London, Jan. ia. cabinet meet
ing has been called by Premier Lloyd
George for tomorrow to consider an
outline of new concessions to the
Egyptian nationalists prepared by
British officials in Egypt.
This outline contains tentative pro-
posals which have been discussed with
Saraat Pasha, the new leader of the
Egyptian moderates. The cabinet will
go over the proposals in detail in an
endeavor to settle definitely the Egyp-
tian crisis.
The principal difficulty in the way
OF settlement, the International News
Service learns is due to the demands
made by the British colonies for safe
guarding of the trade lines which pass
thru the Suez canal region. The CO.
lonial office is, therefore, opposed to
the withdrawing of British GARRISON
in that territory.
This section of the present scheme
has aroused the wrath of the Egyption
extremists and was made the rallying
cry by the agitators in the recent
riots.

AWFULLY SORRY

In the account of the Sir Harry
Lauder talk before the Rotary club
Monday noon The State Journal spoke
of the famous Scotchman's ''trite ex-
pressions" before his audience.
Now We all know that a man who
has won such fame as a comedian
never could be accused of inflicting
''trite' remarks upon his listeners.
AS a matter of fact the reporter
meant ''terse," but the rush of last
minute copy in the late afternoon edi-
tions threw him into a careless man
ner and he accepted ''trite" as it is
commonly misused. The copyreader
slid over it and in it went.
Sir Harry has not complained-pos-
sibly he accepts "trite" as it is Oft
times used. At any rate, we hope he
has. But to the purists who occa-
s.onally consult Noah we apologize
for the error.

A ROW OVER RATES
Topeka School Funds May Lose
Big Interest Sum.
State Bank Commissioner May
Make a Ruling.

The Topeka board of education has
held three. meetings recently in an
effort to choose the bank or banks for
the deposit of s1OO.Oo0 of its funds.
Bids have been made exceeding in
interest rate any offer ever made to
the school board.
Despite these bids the board has
dallied along until now, it is reported
in banking circles today, the bids will
be lowered to a ruling of the state
bank commissioner allowing only 3
per cent.
In fact, it is understood that the
bank commissioner has called all To-
poke bankers together and has prac-
tically forced them to bid not more
than per cent on the school funds.
The school board now receives 3 Y
and Is per cent for its funds. Bids
as high as 3.75 and 4 per cent have
been made for the schools $10O,0O0
funds, but delays in letting the con-
tract have brought about a condition
that might reduce the highest bid to
3 per cent.
The 100000 in funds comes from
the public. 1.-The public is entitled to
every cent of interest provided. of
course, it is safeguarded," F. G. Dren-
ming of the school board said today.
Three and one-half or three and
tilree-quarters per cent is not too high
for banks to pay for these funds and
the state bank commissioner is. stand
ing in the way of public benefits and
public economy when he forces the
city's banking institutions to lower
their rates to the board of education,
it is pointed out.
The school board meets again
Wednesday noon to settle the plan for
disposing of the funds.
Conference This Afternoon.
State Bank Commissioner Foster
this afternoon stated he would take
no arbitrary action to force Topeka
state banks not to pay more than three
per cent for the school fund. He
stated emphatically, tho, that he
might make suggestions at a confer
ence called for late this afternoon
He did not plan. he said, to fix q
hard, fast rule or to make his plar
binding.
Foster did not show tendency OF
desire to discuss conferences with ma
tional bankers. He denied he had
made an agreement with them. He
admitted, tho, that he had talked with
several national bankers and made
known his views to the effect thai
three per cent for public funds was a
sufficient interest rate.
Last fall the state bank commits
sioner notified state banks that in his
opinion four per cent should be a
maximum rate for payment on private
funds and three per cent on public
funds. This rate applies on daily bal
ances
Foster stated the conference this
afternoon would be behind closed
doors. He denied that it had been
called for the specific purpose of dis
cussing the school fund matter. altho
he expected to bring the matter up
during the meeting. He was asked
fatty if an agreement regarding in
terest rates had been made with ma
tionaI bankers.

position" he said
But is the statement correct?"
"I haven't gone into any agreement
in the matter"
