pany to help the man on the land.
The officials are conducting a cam
paign of helpfulness to the farmer,
the dairyman and the stockman, as
well as the Individual who follows
any vocation on the land.
The time has come for the farmers
of the Pacific Northwest to take a
hand In the production of meat, for
which there Is so great a demand, and

The question of feed arises. More
alfalfa and more corn are necessary.
The wisdom of growing alfalfa has

years. A campaign for more corn was
begun several months ago. This com

WOULD BE GLAD
TO HAVE BOARD
SELL TEXT BOOKS
That he would be glad to have the
city school board take over the text
book business and would like to male:
such a change tomorrow if possible
Is the declaration of L. G. Frazler,
proprietor of the local book store
handling the text books In use here.
'I ordered CO per cent more books
this fall than were requested by the
city superintendent," says Mr. .Frailer.
'However, there was considerable de
mand for the books from country dis
tricts and from other towns, so thai
cut our supply down somewhat.
"The chief trouble arises from the
fact we cannot get the books as we
need them from the J. K. Gill Co., the
stale depository. The change was
made so late that In many cases there
has not been time in which to publish
the books by the time they are needed."
According to Mr. Frazler the profit
in text books Is practically nil and
the handling of the books Is a thank
less Job. It Is possible to return the
regularly authorized books ,If too
many should be secured. However,
the supplementary books used In the
schools must be ordered specially and
tannot be had on consignment. -
As to the policy of requiring cash
for the school books this year. Mr
Frazler says he had no option in the
matter as the company from whom
the books were received Insisted upon
cash at once.

BAKER, Ore., Sept. 19. A few
days ago one of the Oxbow crew be
came obsessed with a desire to do
something different. In preparation
for the stunt he had decided on pull
ing off he made sundry visits to a
tnirst emporium. As a result of these
visits he became highly enthusiastic
regarding his ability to do big things
for the admiration of his fellow work
men, and In the supreme height of his
newly acquired optimism he trudged
a couple of miles up the river where
he knew some ranchers were fishing.
The ranchers had caught several stur
geon and among them one of great
size which they had Just taken from
the water The enthusiastic Oxbow
worker Immediately bought this big
fish. He then constructed a sort of
three-cornered raft by means of three
rails which he securely tied together
In the shape of a huge copltal A. The
Oxbow optimist now tied the big stur
geon through the gills to the apex of
his raft and clinging to the cross
piece he compelled the fish to haul
him the two miles down stream to
camp where he landed himself and
the fish team amid the shouts of his
companions. A part of the fish was
served at the camp dinner.
The truth of this story is vouched
for by Albert Owens, formerly of r?a
ker but now in Halfway, who writes
that he saw the fish-propelled boat
and Its rider going down the stream.

th supreme court affirmed the Judg
ment of the district court for Koote
nai county. The opinion is written by

O'Neil was convicted of the charge
of making false reports to the state

ALBANY. Sept. 19. The fitness of
Senators Frawley and Wagner to sit
a members of the Impeachment court
to try Governor Sulier, was challeng
ed by the defense today when court
cenvened at noon.
"As presiding Judge," Justic Cullen
ruled, "it is my opinion the court
cannot entertain the challenges. As
senators, I believe the person chal
lenged are entitled to sit and I do not
think the members of this court could
be excused If It was desired. How
ever, a record of the vote w in be taken
on the point."
The court upheld the ruling. Judge
Cullen added that he did not believe
there was the slightest basis for the
defense claim that Frawley and Wag
ner were unfit to participate in the
trial. He expressed himself with much
emphasis.
There Is no question, however, but
that the ruling of the Judge Is u dis
tinct blow to Governor Sulxer.
As soon as the two challenges were
overruled, the articles of impeachment
were read.
" The defense replied by calling "ud the
question of the regularity of the pro
ceedings and moved that they be drop-
pea on the ground that the assembly
aciea illegally.
Attorney Marshall for the defense
then begun arguments in support of
this motion, but a recess was declared.
The following paragraph In the im
peachment brief will be quoted to sup
port the defense claim that malice ac
tuated the impeachment proceedings:
"The world hates a liar but It is not
for lying that Sulzer's conviction has
been asked. He is charged with fil
ing a false certificate of contributions
In his campaign and. by so dolnirf with
having committed a crime. It is con
templated In the constitution that a
criminal holding office should first be
Impeached thereby stripping him of
official influence and power to acquit
himself by removing the district at
torney who prosecuted him and the
Judge who sentenced him and finally
by pardoning himself."
An attempt will be made to get the .
release of James Garrison, a newspa
per correspondent, who was sent to
Jail by the assembly for refusing to
answer questions concerning charges
he is said to have made that efforts
were being made to bribe legislators to
vote for Sulzer's impeachment. It Is
considered doubtful If the court will
nave the power to act In such a case
as this.
ALBANY. Sept. 19 After an af
ternoon session of an hour, the Sulser
Impeachment court adjourned until 3
o'clock Monday.
ALBANY. Sept. 19. That Governor
Sulzer has recognized Glynn'j claim
of official authority Is asserted from
letters received at the governor's of
fice. It Is declared that the quea.
ticn arose in connection with the ex
tradition to New York of a fugitive '
arrested in Chile. According to See
ictary Tierney. Sulxer write Glynn
