They're at it Again.

the people are wise they will let
these sharks strictly alone. A little
figuring will show the farmer that
when he counts in the freight paid
on his shipment he is paying as much
or more for his groceries than he
could get them for from his home
merchant. We know of several per-
sons who ordered groceries last year
from one of these statesmen and after
getting their goods found some artl-
cles so badly spoiled that they had
to be thrown away. When you
deal with your home merchant you
deal with one who pays taxes to
support your county and whose
purse is always open to assist local
enterprises and care for the needy.

To Feed the E1ks.

The announcement that the gov,
eminent intends this spring to SOW a
large acreage in the Yellowstone
park to alfalfa for the feeding of
elk and other animals during the
winter is being received with much
satisfaction by the ranchmcn in the
northwestern part of the state.
There are thousands of elk and deer
in the park and III the Jackson's
Hole country, which have been in
the habit during past winters of
coming down oat of the mountains
IN the winter and causing great an
noyance and loss to ranchmen byI
breaking into their pastures and
even haystacks. Cattle and ELK
feeding together is a familiar sight
onnearly all of the ranches in that
district during the winter months.

How Gooding Was Floored.


1gnOminious defeat,
There had been no contest here for
the position of delegate to the national
convention from this district. Several
names had been mentioned, but it was
rather understood that Joseph Perrault
should have the honor. Mr. Borah was
not candidate. He had told Mr.. Per
rault it would be entirely satisfactory
to him for him [Perraultl to be chosen
and that he would not permit the use
OF his name in connection with the
place.
This was the way matters stood at
the primaries, so far as any but few
plotters knew. and nothing different
was known until Yesterday morning.
While some persons had mentioned the
name of former Senator Shoup, it was
not supposed ne had any desire to be
chosen and the use of his name was
regarded merely as idle suggestion.
But the name OF Mr. Borah had also
been mentioned in the same manner
and it seems that Mr.. Gooding and his
lieutenants here believed he would seek
to get the place or dictate the selection,
and they arranged to spring the name
of Senator Shoup on the convention.
Messrs. Gooding and Eastman got in
to communication with the senator.
after consultation, and induced him
to permit them to use his name. X
Yesterday the fact got out that it had
been planned to introduce resolution
eulogizing Shoup and instructing the
delegation TO support him for national
delegate. It also got out, from state
ments made by one or more Of those en-
gagged in the scheme, that the purpose
be construed as defeat for Borah
Mr.. Borah would not have offered
any opposition to Senator Shoup had
the latter ever intimated to him that he
desired to be chosen or il he had any
reason to believe that his candidacy was
a matter of his own choosing. On the
contrary, ue WOul1t HbNO oloO'A IceIu W
aid him had he been advised that the
senator himself wished to be selected as
q delegate. But under the circum-
stances, when 1t was made plain that
Senator Shoup was being used to pull
Goodings chestnuts out of the fire, it
became necessary for Mr.. Borah to take
action promptly in his own defense.
Gong to MIR. Perrault, Mr.. Borah
stated the case to him. Mr.. Perrault
at once declared he could not be a can
didate against Senator Shoup but would
support him Gorah) for the place.
Some quick work was done before the
assembling of the convention that re-
suited in the complete overturning of
the carefully laid plan.
The men engaged in the plot had
Surveyor General Eagleson, delegate
TO the convention, take charge of their
case on the floor. The main feature OF
it was eugolistic resolution carrying
clause instructing for the former sena-
tor. They reasoned that delegates would
not wish to vote against the adoption OF
such an eulogy. but their calculations
were knocked on the head by a motion
TO strike out the concluding paragraph. =
AS amended the resolution was adopted,
and another was passed pledglng the
delegates to support Mr.. Borah ffor
