County Division

CLAYTONIA.-A mass meeting
was held Monday evening at the COM
munity hall to discuss the changing
of the boundaries of Owyhcc county.
E, Q. Marsing and w. +. Maxwell,
secretary, and president of the COM
mcrcial club, presided at the meeting.
The citizens of the Gem district
expressed themselves as unanimously
against any change in the boundaries
of Owyhec county at this time.
Owyhee county, it is proposed, shall
annex the eastern end of Canyon
county and then establish the county
seat at Nampa. Owyhce couty has
long been troubled with a county seat
fight, Silver City. the present capital,
being inaccessible during portions Of
the year and removed from the most
populous districts of the county. From
present indications, this latest scheme
is not making much headway.

OPPOSES
!. NJ NARY RELIEF
Oregon Senator'S Bill
Dies at House Com
mittee Hearing

L. J. Magee. secretary of the Pay
ette-Boise Water Users Association
has been in Washington the past week
on reclamation matters. Monday he
appeared before the house committee
on irrigation where he opposed the
McNary relief measure that has al
ready passed the senate. This bill
provides two years postponement OF
reclamation charges in addition to re-
lief already granted but makes all pay
ments due at the expiration of that
time. Mr.. Magee argued that this was
not real relief. II is considered likely
the house committee will sidetrack the
senate measure for something that
promises more tangible relief
Opposition is rife, however, to the
Borah 40 year plan and Congressman
Addison T. Smith of Idaho, chairman
Of the committee, says that there is no
likelihood of such a measure being
given serious consideration. He rather
favors bill that would grant relief on
the basis OF the McNary measure and
then having the accumulated payments
spread over a number OF years.

ATTORNEYS To
FIGHT MEASURE
Opposition to Division of
Judicial District
Crystallizes

Caldwell attorneys are going tc
Boise in body to protest the passage
of a senate bill which proposes the
division of the seventh judicial dis
trict. leaving Gem and Canyon coun-
ties in the seventh district with but a
single judge.
Opposition to the proposed legisla-
ton is apparently unanimous in this
end of the district 1t is said, however,
that the measure has the approval oil
Washington and other western coan-
ties now included in the seventh dis
trict and from which it is proposed to
create another district.
Administration forces at the state
capital are said to be solidly opposed
to any division of counties or judicial
districts at this session of the legisla-
turc. However, local attorneys pro-
pose that the measure shall never get
to Governor Moore where il is consid-
cred likely that it will be vetoed I'M
less they cannot prevent it.
Thursday Alfred Stone appealed to
the Kiwanis Club for support OF the
dissenting opinion. The matter was
referred to the public affairs commit
tee and the board of directors with
power to act for the club. Other local
civic organizations will probably take
some action on the matter.

CANYON COUNTY
OFFICER SEEKS
To HELP GIRL
w. H. Schenck Among
Those Who Petition
Chicago Judge in Ef-
fort to Solve Problem.

w. H. Schenck. Canyon County s
new county surveyor. is among a
number )pf American citizens who
wrote Judge Joseph David of Chicago
offering assistance in extricating Miss
Lena Mord from a peculiar citizenship
tangle that had been ruled upon her
by the chief justice of the Cook Coun-
ty Supreme Court.
A clipping from the Chicago Daily
Herald Examiner in which appeared
the letter of Mr.. Schenck, and re-
ceiyed here last week, tells the story
as follows:
When Joseph B. David. chief justice
of the Superior Court of Cook Coun-
ty. ruled that Miss Lena Mord must
get married at once or lose her nat
uralization papers, he little thought
that he would convert his court into
a matrimonial agency. But since he
so ruled he has received hundreds of
letters from lonesome bachelors from
all over the United States, Canada and
Mexico, asking him to play John Al
den to their Miles Standish.
Yesterday Judge David pleaded with
reporters to do what they could to
stop his rush OF mail.
Flood of Letters
"You fellows got me into this by
printing this story and now you have
got to get me out. 1t takes me and
my secretary all morning just to open
these letters. Ny wife hardly speaks
TO me and our home is full of these
silly letters.
"Are there no other unmarried wo-
men in this country? Note what
some of these heart-sick swains have
to say:
Here's one from w. H.
Schsnck of Caldwell, Ida He
writes: Dear Judge-I am not
young ~ might be, only II, but
need someone to look after the
house. ! prefer a housekeeper
without marriage, but would
marry a woman of the right
turn. The name Lena rather
distresses me, but let me hear
from you"
Asks Abou. Money
Here is another from L. Ambrose
Zick, of Polo, ILL., He says: Dear
Judge-Has this Lena person any
money! Is it in her own manner Is she
healthy What would she expect
from a husband-I haven't much mon
ey to spend on woman, but / am
willing to be kind to her.
Perhaps you would like to hear
from Roland More of Gastonia, N. C.,
who says: I am a real he man and
am now willing to take chance. Send
me this woman's age and weight and
I'll be up after her at once
William Lawson OF Grand Rapids,
Mich, writes to say that amt much
for women but man has to come to
it sometime l guess. Better / picl.
out one like this one than get picked
later myself. Give her my picture
which l am sending by private mail
"And there are hundreds more like
these" says the Judge. "Now print
something to stop these fool things"
Mail will reach the Judge if ad-
dressed in the County Building.
