SCANDAL AT BOISE

A sensational trial is in progress
in the federal court at Boise, charg-
ing the sheriff, the deputy sheriff,
the chief of police and an officer or
two, and two or three roOming house
operators, with conspiracy to defeat
the liquor laws, with making and
selling intoxicants, with hiring peo-
pie and property to carry on illegal
activities, and with using their Of
fetal positions as city and county Of
ficers to cover up and protect these
illegal proceedings.
1t is chraged that they used a
doctors office for council room in
which to plan and give and receive
orders, and that one or more persons
who are witnesses against them,
looked on and listened thru a large
crack in a door between the council
room and an adjoining room, saw
and identified the persons talking
and heard what was said. Thru in
formation secured in this way the
federal authorities were kept in
formed from day to day of the plans,
so that they not only know what was
being done, but knew in advance so
they could put witnesses at the right
places to see. If it was done.
The federal grand jury filed an in
dictment in the case and now the
trial jury is listening to the evidence
being presented, and Boise is stewing
with excitement and wondering
whether the other is the conspiracy.

the trick was rather easily turned
The price of the paper was changed
to semi-weekly at SO year and
spuds dropped so that it took four
sacks to pay a years subscription
Seeking to get down to safe basis,
the price of the paper was changed
to weekly at 50 year and now it
takes eight sacks of potatoes to pay
a years subscription.
The editor doesn't think it discreet
to cut the price any lower and in
vite further disaster. 1t would seem
cruel to send duns to subscribers
asking them to pay up, unless he
could arrange to board it out on a
ration of Idaho potatoes.
With the price of print paper
rising, the publishers hope lies in
the steady subscriber who pays in
advance when he has it. The Re-
publican office did not send out its
customary grist of duns this winter,
but relied upon the subscriber here
and there who had a dollar, to APP
ply some of it on his newspaper ac-
count and enable the office to
carry" those who have the dollar
to get-which is most of us.
We are very grateful to all the
thoughtful folks who have applied
something on the annual dues" and
made the hired help happy on pay
days. 1t might be better for editors
not to have any more dreams or am
billions unless they shift the gear.
