FOR SECRETARY OF INTERIOR

Secretary Falls of the interior de-
partment has filed his resignation
with the president and the post has
been offered to Herbert Hoover, who
is now head of the department OF
commerce. But he declined to
make any change, saying that he
had undertaken to reorganize his
department and had not finished the
job.
Former Governor Campbell of
Arizona is a candidate for the posi-
ton as are also former senator Mon
dell of Wyoming and former Cover
nor Davis of Idaho. Campbell and
Mondell were members of the high
commission that drafted the pro-
posed agreement to be made be-
tween the seven states along the
Colorado river and with the federal
government, now pending the ap-
prevail of those bodies, and it is
likely that the seven southwestern
states will concentrate their support
for either Campbell or Mondell, pre-
ferably Campbell on account of his
geographical position.

MOVIE HOUSE ANNOUNCES

In this issue will be found the an
nouncements of some films that are
to be shown soon at the Rialto, to
which attention is directed. The
management select their films care
fully, trying to provide good whole
some entertainment.
The task of keeping up good
shows thru the dead of winter is not
a light one, and show houses that
are kept warm and comfortable and
the chairs never allowed to get
chilled even in the coolest weather,
afford valuable protection that is
especially needed by people who
have colds, or who take cold easily.
The city ordinance prohibiting
the selling of tickets or the opening
of doors on Sunday evening until 7
o o'clock, the moment when the show
should begin, has been amended to
permit selling tickets and admitting
people to the building at any time
after four in the afternoon. People
who have had to stand out in the
wind waiting for the technical OBJ
servance of the ordinance will no
longer have that annoyance.

WE HATE TO MENTION IT

The Republican office usually
sends out subscription statements to
subscribers at about the close of the
year, but so many families are dead
broke this fall we dislike to say a
word to them about the accounts.
We don't know who is broke and
who is able to pay all and who is
able to pay part, and It costs us $40
or $50 to send out the full set OF
statements. We may delay sending
the statements till some time next
year, and in the meantime we ask
that those who can shall send in
such payments as they can spare us.
Two cent stamps are acceptable for
small amounts, and they all help.
Those who paid in advance be-
fore we changed to a weekly re-
ceive extensions to equalize the diff
ference in price between the tri-
weekly or the semi-weekly and the
weekly. IT,

COUNTY OFFICERS DANCE

On Monday evening a dance was
given at the American Legion Hal
in honor of the new and retiring
county officers. The house was well
filled and between dances there were
entertainment features by R. A
Robbins, Miss Lorraine Seeger, Mrs
D. P. Brill, the Ladies Glee Club
Joseph Adams, editor of the Shelley
Pioneer and Col. M. A. Fugate.
Col. Fugate called for Judge J. H
Andersen and former county clerk,
F. M. Fisher to come forward, and
said the management of the dance
had planned to serve lunch to all,
but the plans had miscarried and
now they had decided to serve only
the two most distinguished gentle
men and let that suffice for the
house. Thereupon he handed each
of them something wrapped in a
napkin, and it proved to be sand
witch and a bottle. On removing the
caps from the bottles they acted like
fire extinguishers, spouting vigor-
ously of something foamy. Mr..
Fisher dropped his bottle, while
Judge Anderson was game and got
his thumb over the nozzle and
worked to save what he could from
the wreck.
The Ladies' Glee Club repeated
some Of their campaign stunts, sing
ing to the tune of "Just Before the
Battle Mother" some verses COM
posed by Miss Lila Liljenqust for the
occasion, that ran as follows:
We all stood out in the rain
Wondering who would be elected
To the offices again.
Farewell, Simmons, we may meyer
Have you in our bunch again,
But we'll not forget you sheriff
Tho it gives us all a pain.
On the night of the returns
We were all surprised to learn
Of the many disappointments
Which we'll meet all in our turn.
Farewell Fisher, we may never
Have you in our bunch again,
But we'll not forget you auditor
Tho it gives us all a pain.
Even before this election
We all knew you'd not remain.
The peoples cry for lower taxes
Seemed to give you such a pain.
Farewell Malcolm, we may never
Have you In our bunch again,

CHICAGO, May 17.-Ralph Oben-

in Madalynne Obenchain, his former
wife.
The Evanston lawyer, who won the
characterization of "a man in a mil
lion" when he rushed across the
country to defend Madalynne at her
trial on a charge of killing J. Bolton
Kennedy, blushed when asked if he
will re-wed her.
II can't tell yet" he said. You
know Madalynne is suffering from up
sets and strain of her trials" He
