tended by over three hundred voters, both men and women. All of the i'm pOrtant business men and leaders of the community were present, and list ened with interest to the speeches of the various candidates in the coming city election. The people sat or stood in the open park, which was beauti- fully lighted with Japanese lanterns.
 Mrs. Charles Fiske, president of the league and herself a candidate for re- election as alderman, presided and in- troduced the candidates, 25 out of the 2S being present. Each one gave a brief statement of his position, all favoring the school bonds, street inn prOvements, and progress along all civic lines. Several also mentioned the need for changing the sewerage system, and one or two stated that they were in favor of decreasing the salary of alder men, at present $25 a month.
 Although the meeting began later on account of the revival being held at Fairfield, the crowd stayed patiently un- til the very end, and seemed much pleased at the opportunity to hear from all the candidates at once.
 Prior to the mass meeting, short business meeting of the league was held, at which the following appoint ments were made: As secretary, Mrs, Fonderant, in place of Mrs. Daniels, who resigned; Chairman of Program Committee, Mrs. Margaret Davis, re- placing Mrs. l.. B. Bush; Nominating

 The wedding took place at noon at | the home of the brides parents on upper Third avenue. The lower floor of the home was thrown together and beautifully decorated in white and green. 'The doorways were yelled in ! southern smilax and graceful palms added their beauty everywhere. The chandeliers were entwined with dainty sprays of asparagus fern, while bas- ke and silver vases filled with white asters were placed in all available places.
 The ceremony was performed before an altar of palms and Easter lilies, they being simply but artistically ar ranged on white pedestals. Many white candles in handsome silver candelabra effectively placed at intervals com pleted the lovely scene.
 The bride and groom entered to- gether and, in the absence of Rev. R. M Stimson of the First Presby- terian church, were joined in marriage by Rev. J. k. Potts, assistant.
 The bride, who is a lovely young girl, wore a simple white rock of crepe Romaine trimmed in rose point lace. Her flowers were a shower bou, Quet of valley lilies.
 The brides table was beautiful, be ing laid in handsome filet lace cloth and centered with an effective arrange ment of white asters and asparagus fern. Silver candlesticks held white tap CTS and the other appointments wore also in silver.
 During the afternoon Lieutenant nd Mrs. Box. left for New York city from whence they will sail on Sept tember 1 for Panama Canal, where Lieutenant Box will be stationed. The brides travelling costume was of tar crepe with Irish crepe trimmings. Hel hat and other accessories were tan.

NEW CLUB GETS
WELL UNDER WAY
Officers Elected d and
Organization Perfected
Friday

Election OF officers. adoption OF a
constitution and by laws. several short
addresses on pertinani subjects and
somewhat lengthy diversion into the
field OF politics featured the. second
meeting OF the Caldwell Rod and Gun
Club last Friday evening.
J. II. Gibpson. temporary chairman.
was chosen presiden, OF the club with
Frank Holingsworih, temporary sec
retary, as permanent officer in that
capacity. A. l. Myers was elected vice
president. Frank Mumford. treasurer
and Frank Knapp, +. G. Pickett, Glen
Evans. Bert Conley and George Ro-
chester as additional members, OF the
board OF directors. Dues were fixed
at 81 per year with a junior member
ship. including boys and girls from
eight to 10 years OF age At so cents
per annum.
About 40 local sporismen were
present Friday evening at the formal
organization meeting. With this num-
Der as a nucleus, an intensive men,
bership campaign will be undertaken.
The local club embraces all territory
east OF the Weiser clubs territory to
Nampa and includes HomedaIe and
Parma.
Politics was injected into the meet
ing when DR.. F. NJ. Cole read a let
ter written recently by DR. L. \.
Weaver secretary OF the srate organiza
ton. to c. II. Duval. secretary OF the
Nampa club. This letter was a Wit
riolic attack upon the game depart
ment, charged politics as the basis for
its operation and called upon clubs
to organize fight against Governor
c. c. Moore.
In speaking of the letter. DR.. Cole
made a strong plea to the local club
to remain out OF politics. expressing
the belief that a sufficiently wide
field OF activities existed without en-
tangling the club in such work. Mr..
Gipson twice during the evening as
serted that the clubs policy would not
undertake to make or unmake any in
dividua from a political standpoint.
This discussion came as a result OF
the question as TO whether or not
the Caldwell club should affiliate with
the state organization. The matter
was finally referred to the board OF
directors with instructions TO inves
tigate and report at later meeting.
Brief talks were made earlier in
the evening by T. A. Walters. Alden
Hyde and c. ]. estcott.

CARAVAN WILL
TOUR HIGHWAY
North and South Trip
Is Proposed here
Friday

Southern Idaho motorists who have
never been over the north and south
highway or who are looking for an
opportunity to get into the great out
doors for a brief outing will have m
opportunity May lS when caravan
will start pilgrimage over the high
way from Weiser to Lewiston. Weis-
er, Payette, Parma, Caldwell and Nam
pa automobile and highway fans are
planning the trip. Walter Griiiiths
has charge OF local arrangements such
as getting a crowd together and out
lining plans for the trip.
Friday evening, representatives Of
Weiser, Payette, Parma and Nampa
civic organizations met in Caldwell
to discuss the feasibility OF selling
this highly scenic route to Idaho mot
orists by moans OF caravan. While
the Idaho Editorial association IS
planning a similar jaunt for early
July, it is felt that the May date will
find the route in condition for travel
and that the trip will be more pleasur-
able from a scenic standpoint.
Construction OF highway tapping
the Old Oregon trail below Parma
and cutting into the desert road at
Fruitland was also advocated by this
inter-ciiy highway committee. Eight
miles OF road, already partially i'm
proved. will give tourists an oppor-
tuniiy to see the best OF all southern
Idaho these road builders declare.
1t is understood iha, The eigh, miles
of construction is endorsed by the
state highway department Only a
short distance OF the proposed con-
struction is in Canyon county, the
remainder being in Payeitec.

JESTER TRIAL
ENDS SUDDENLY
Court Sustains Defense
Attorney on Demurrer
Argument

Trial OF J. Jester Jr, charged with
misappropriation OF funds OF the Pho
neer Irrigation district, came to sud-
den and somewhat dramatic halt last
Friday in the distric, court when a
demurrer, argued by Z. J. Frawley
OF Boise, one OF TESTERS attorneys
was sustained
Point made in the two hour argu-
ment was that the information filed
by Logan Hyslop. county attorney,
charging Jester with the crime he is
alleged TO have committed, failed to
specifically locate the Pioneer lrriga-
ton district in the state OF Idaho. Mr..
lester was treasurer of the Pioneer
district when the crime is alleged to
have been committed. The informa-
ton merely used the term the state.
According to court usage, this state
or "the state OF Idaho would have
sufficed
Ten days was given the prosecu-
ton to file new information. This
phrase of the courts ruling was strenu-
ously protested by the defense.
The end OF the trial came with
romatic suddcnness Friday. J. A. Dun
bar, county clerk. had been called to
the stand as the first witness follow
ing more than a day spent in obtain
ing a jury. Mr.. Dunbar was asked two
or three OF the customary prelimin-
airy questions when Mr.. Frawlcy arose
and in a two hour address outlined
the stand OF the defense OH A demur-
rcr argument.
One week had been set aside for the
lester trial. All criminal court pro-
cccdure came TO halt for the time
being as a result OF the Jester fiasco.
Time for the resumption OF the pro-
cecdurc in the Jester case will prob
ably be advanced several months.

WATER SUPPLY
CUT OFF FROM
MANY FARMERS
Drainage Delinquents
For 1922 Get No Water
This Season; in Canals
Now

Three or four hundred Boise pro
;ect settlers will get no water TIN:
summer until they pay their 1922 drain
age assessments.
This is the edict that WIS included
in formal notices for water delivery
ior the 1924 season issued about six
weeks ago by J. B. Bond, project
manager. And in accordance with
tha. notice, many Boise project farm
ers found themselves without water
. Tuesday OF last week within the preci-
ous fluid was turned into the canals
Number of farmers affected could
no, be definitely determined. In the
| Deer Flat division, by far the lrgesi
OF the four divisions of the project,
| 222 farmers Saturday were not being
supplied with water under terms OF
that order.
According to P. J. Foley cf Kuna,
member OF the board OF directors
| OF the Payette-Boise Water Users
association, a large number OF farm
ers in the Kuna territory are delin-
| quent in their 1922 special drainage
assessments and consequently are not
getting water this spring. This por-
ton OF the project has no drainage
problem and this fact is regarded To-
|cally as one reason for the high per-
|cen.ge OF delinquincies According
to Mr. Foley. such crops as head let
ruce already are suffering for water
and heavy losses are impending unless
producers are supplied.
Fred Harrington, chairman of the
board. said Saturday that while the
Situation was a serious one so far as
the settlers involved are concerned,
yet it is the policy to insist upon pay
nent that drainage work, so sorely
reeded. might be continued. In his
Estimation, drainage work was rela-
lively more important than lack OF
|water by 800 or 400 settlers.
In response to telegram sent last
Thursday by Mr.. Bond to the reclaim
Rtion bureau at Washington. he re-
feived information to the effect that
be had no authority to deliver water
b 1922 delinquents. At present and
fhis season. 1923 drainage delinquents
will be supplied, it is said.
Mr.. Folly is organizing a campaign
10 obtain relief for settlers without
Saier. Commercial organizations,
Poih here and in Nampa. have been
appealed to.
