Much Waterpower.

Much Waterpower.
On the Kootenai below town there
is a site capable of developing $1,000
horsepower of hydro-electric energy
On the Yak river there are two pos
sible projects capable of developing
about 5000 hip. and any number OF
sites capable of developing from 40 to
5000 hip. Similar possibilities can be
found on many other streams in the
county, meaning cheap power for de-
veloping industries throughout the
county.
From the standpoint of recreation
and pleasant place in which to live,
Mr.. Billings said this district is hard
to surpass. He spoke in glowing terms
of the beauties of the mountains, the
lakes and streams, called attention to
the marvellous beauties of such lakes
as Granite and Cedar lakes, Thompson
lakes, Bull lake and Spar lake and
many others nesting in the tops of
these rugged mountains. There is a
district at the head Of Libby creek
where in the springtime the melting
snow sends countless streams cascad-
ing down the mountain sides. The
scenery there cannot be surpassed by
that of the Swiss Alps said Mr.. Bill
mgs, and / have seen some Of that,
Also
Mr. Billings is very enthusiastic re-
garding the future of this entire dis
trict and said that eventually we could
not keep people from moving in, and
settling and developing this district
even if we wanted to, and of course no
one wants to do that.

DON'T QUOTE ME
(By the United Prcss)

Washington, Feb 5-UP)--Thc activities of the United States navy in connection with the Shanghai imbroglio will be easier to under stand If one remembers that navy traditions contain number of loodlcss diplomatic victories along with conquests through force of arms.
 There has been great dusting off, in recent days, of the navy's books on international law. Un- doubtedly Rear Admiral Montgom- rey Meigs Taylor was hard at wolk on them as his Asiatic fleet steamed from Manila to Shanghai.
 And the wardrooms of the de- stroyers. usually places of gayety and relaxation among the younger officers, probably became class rooms in diplomacy for the short cruise northward.
 The navy has had some splendid diplomats whose exploits live side by side with the more glamorous adventures of Jones, Lawrence and Dewey. Rear Admiral Mark l.. Bristol, chairman of the general board who Is scheduled for retire. ment this year. Is one of them.
 Bristol acted as high commis- sioner in Turkey for more than eight years. during the disturbing incidents between the THrks and the Greeks. During his regime American naval officers evacuated about 270.000 men, women and children from smyrna and other places on the coast.
 In 1927 Bristol negotiated an exchange of notes providing for resumption of diplomatic relations after a delicate situation with Tur- key had arisen as result of sen- ate refusal to ratify treaty When Bristol resigned a short time later to assume command of the Asiatic fleet, President Coolidge extolled him as "an ambassador in all but name and an ambassador, more- over, charged with duties of un- usual difficulty and delicacy."
 Bristol's success, MT Coolidge said, "has been notable in the an- nals of American diplomacy"
 Also, navy men like to recall the remark made by Secretary of State John Hay to President Roosevelt in 1902, when there was some rev. olutionary trouble in the Carib- bean.
 The situation. Hay told the pres- ident, "has been handled by navy officers without single mis- take"
 That remark of Hays is framed and hangs on the wall of the gen. cral board office. Nearby Is an- other framed document, part of q speech made in 1898 by Lord Sal isbury, British prime minister and secretary of state for foreign af- fairs.
 "I have sometimes thought" :" said the prime minister, that 1T the cabinets were All dismissed and an admiral installed in place of each. Europe would get along better than she does now

LAWYER MARRIES COUPLE, AIDS IN DIVORCE
Judge Chides Mascolo Because
 "It Didn't Take"
First One That Did Not" Barrister Answers as Rose Sirrero Costa Secures Freedom From Husband Who Deserted Her

Atotrney Edward Mascolo has the distinction perhaps of being the only person in the history of the local courts who married a couple and then was present to act as a character witness for the plaintiff in securing her divorce. This happened to-day. in the case of Rose Sirrero Costa against Jer- orne Costa.
 Rose was not getting far in her divorce action which was being heard by Judge Frederick NJ. Peas ley, She had testified she mar ried the defendant on August IS. 1928 after only knowing him for four months. She said he left the following October after draw ing his pay from the Scovill Man ufacturing company and that she had not seen him since. She had not inquired about him or his family before the ceremony was performed, she told the court. Her sister did not know much about the defendant and neither did a girl friend. Judge Peasley was dubious and thought it peculiar that she manfred him on such short acquaintance without know ing anything about him.
 "Who married you?" inquired the court.
 Edward Mascoio," came the reply.
 Attorney Edward was seated in tue court room taking 1t all in.
 "You didn't do a very good job, Eddie" smiled the judge.
 "Jt's the first one that did not hold, your honor" answered Ed die.
 Attorney Mnscolo then informed the court that the defendant was

Dispensations To Marry Frightened By
 Orders From Rome

in d circular to bishops and par ish priests throughout the world.
 The order provides that dispen- sations shall not be granted for the marriage of Catholics to non-Cath- olics or non-Christians unless the prospective spouses comply with the condition that execution of the pledges under which the dispensa- ton is granted shall not be inn pcded by anybody for any reason in their present or future resi- dences.
 The pledges consist of promises to raise any offspring in the Cath olic religion and not attempting to induce the Catholic party to the marriage to renounce his religion.
 The congregations order was prompted by the fact that execu- ton of the pledges is hindered or prohibited in some countries by civil laws or by Protestant pastors. The congregation ruled that the dispensation must be considered invalid if the conditions are not compiled with.

Norristown, Pa, Feb 5-(UP)- Eddie Aliens two point defense maintaining that he killed Francis A. Donaldson, 3rd, his sisters lov- CT, to vindicate her honor and to protect himself and his feeble father from violence, got under way to-day after the state had rested it's case against him.
 His counsel, William T. Connor, emotionally summoned up his de- fense, sparing neither the reputa- : ton of the beautiful 19 year old debutante, Rose Allen. nor the memory of her suitor. He brought many members of the jury to tears. Rose sat quietly, serene as Con nors sonorous voice rolled on. To all appearances, she did not hear him. Eddie sat at the counsel table, holding his hands together in his lap, squirming and twisting. Horace Allen, the father, was slumped over, obviously tortured by the recitation. He was pre- pared to add to Roses shame in order to defend Eddie. He await cd a call to describe the alleged dishonoring of his daughter by Donaldson that preceded the slay- ing. ,,
 Connor told of Eddie pleading with his sister after he learned that the elder Allen found Don aldson in her bedroom late al night. She had slapped her fath- er's face, and according to Con, nor's story, Donaldson had pushed the father into his own bedroom and showed him over bed. Edd'e told Rose 1t would have to stop.
 "Who do you think you are, God AlmIghty?" Connor quoted Rose.
