Too Many Convention

Two county conventions within 35
days OF one another to elect delegates
to Lewiston aud Pocatello conventions
are one too many. 1t will not be sur
prising and disappointing II they be
poorly attended.
The calls place the country precincts
at q disadvantage. First, the ranchers
are busy, and TO attend two primaries
and two conventions win take up too
much OF their time. Secondly, num-
ber OF the precincts are remote from
Blackfoot and to reach it II will entail
an expense and loss OF time that few
will submit to Mt this busy season. One
convention would serve every purpose
and be literally attended. II there be
an extra large number OF proxies ut the
dates fixed the matter can be easily ex-
planned. Ii will not be because OF a
lack OF interest by these party men but
because they could not afford the time
and expense.

not emphatic. Towards the end the

Corn opened off sharply with wheat,
and although the market recovered it's
initial decline, the close showed some
loss in wheat. Rains in the west, to-
gether with the wheat weakness, caused
selling at the start by commission
