SALUTATORY.

In presenting THE LONG VALLEY
ADVOCATE to the people of the
northern part of Boise county,
we do so with a determination to
give them a representative news
paper, and we have no misgivings
as to the results of our labors. 1t
shall be our special mission to work
increasingly for our beautiful val
ley, to advocate it's interests, and
make it thoroughly known at it's
true value to the outside world. 1t
is true that from a business view
point the field for newspaper ven
ture is limited, but the people show
a strong desire to cooperate with
us, and with such a feeling, shown
in so many kind ways, we have no
fear of the result.
So far as the policy of THE LONG
VALLEY ADVOCATE is concerned, it
will be a newspaper of the people,
for the people, and will endeavor
at all times to be non-partisan.
Our politics are Republican, but in
Difference to the wishes of a major
ity of the people who subscribed
during our canvass of the valley
we shall keep politics as much as
possible out of our columns, aiming
to be just and impartial to all.
We trust orr labors may be
found worthy of encouragement
and support, and that the people
will work with us for the advance
ment of our lovely valley.

iveness to the tourist, those in
search of healthful summer re-
sort, the weakly looking for a
health-restoring climate, the home
seeker with means to build up a
good home, men with capital to de-
velop our resources and start new
industries, ETC., etc. This accounts

A class of settlers that are doing
much for the development of Long
Valley is the Finlanders. They
have in many instances taken up
what was considered the poorest
land and are making fertile ranches
of it. They are an industrious,
thrifty and honest people, with
lots of enterprise. Another thing
in their favor is the fact that they
believe in having large families,
and act up to their belief. They
are the right kind of settlers, and
are welcome addition to the val
ley's population.

JOHN r. WALLIS.

The LONG VALLEY ADVOCATE
does not believe in "booming," as
that word is generally understood.
We have here one of the grandest
valleys on the face of the earth,
with resources that are almost un-
developed, but we have a few
drawbacks too. 1t is our intention
to show things as they really are.
If we have three feet of snow on
the level we shall say so, and not
give it out as two feet. No ultim-
ate good is accomplished by mis-
representing facts, and if people
coming here find everything as
represented they are more apt to
be satisfied than they would be il
they had been misled. We ask
our correspondents to second us in
this, as we believe it the best and
only true course.

Quite a number of residents of
this valley have photographs of
their homes, showing the beauty of
the surrounding country. If any
of them would like to have such
photograph reproduced in this pa
per, with short printed account
of it's location and owner, to send
to their friends, they may have it
done by furnishing the editor par
ticulars and paying cost of the half
tone cut. This offer is to all paid
subscribers who have homes in the
valley or vicinity.

will be made next year Such an
extension will be of vast benefit to
this rich valley.
There is good prospects ahead
for this favored section of country.
Pin your faith to it, settlersl Work
for it, give it a deservedly good
name, pull together for it's good,
and you will reap benefits far
greater than your labors.

A small bonus was raised to as
sist in purchasing THE LONG VAL
LEY ADVOCATE plant To those
who contributed for that purpose,
(their names appear elsewhere in
this issue), and to all others who
have helped by kind words of en-
couragement, and in other ways to
make a success of the venture we
extend our heartfelt thanks, assur-
ing them of our full appreciation.
Long Valley advocate. (Lardo, Idaho) 1904-1907, 1904-10-27

We have been delayed in getting
out the first issue of THE ADVOCATE
owing to a wrong size set of rollers
being sent with the press from
Chicago. The fault was entirely
with the people from whom we or
dered the printing plant, and has
caused us inconvenience and loss.
We trust this explanation will be
satisfactory to our subscribers.

SAD END OF AFRO TAKSO
Drowned Last Spring, Remains
Only Now Recovered.

The dismembered remains of
man were discovered on the 18th
inst. by James Darkwood and John
Parnell while they were hunting
below the falls in the Tamarac
swamp, about Is miles down the
river. A thigh bone was first seen
on a sandbar in the river, and fur
Their search led to the finding of
the skull and other portions of the
frame. All flesh was gone, but
parts of the clothing remained, and
in the shirt pocket, under the jun
per, was found pocket book con-
tanning two $500 bills, $3.50 in
silver, and some papers which even
tually led to Identification. The
remains proved to be those of Arc
Takso, a young Finlander who dis
appeared about the middle of May.
1t is known that Takso was
searching for a horse that he had
recently purchased, and it is be-
lieved that in attempting to cross
the river he was overpOwered by
the strong current or was seized
with cramps and succumbed. The
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the body would
likely occur in the falls, or coyotes
may have been responsible.
His relatives Ca sister and two
brothers-in-law) and friends could
not account for his disappearance,
but supposed he had gone to work
on the Thunder Mountain road,
and had not the faintest idea> that
any i'll had befallen him.
Thomas Mccall and George l..
Newman left here on the 10Th inst.
to form jury and hold an inquest,
but on arrival they concurred with
the relatives that an inquest was
unnecessary, and the remains were
turned over to the sister, Mrs.
Jacob Mahla, of Roseberry, for in
terment.

Before making our canvass of
the valley, we had decided to name
this paper The Payette Lakes Adj
vocate, but we found the sentiment
almost general that the name
should be THE LONG VALLEY ADvo-
CATE. We therefore changed our
decision, believing the wishes of
the majority should rule in mat
ter of this description.

Alpha has general store and tele-

Center and Manning. All have

Mining has been carried on in
the valley for a number of years,
but not on very extensive scale.
A large part of the surplus hay,
grain, vegetables, ETC., finds ready
market in Thunder Mountain,
Warrens, and other mining camps.
The new wagon road to Thunder
Mountain comes up the valley to
Thunder City, whence it turns east
and follows Big creek and on to
the famous gold camp. Another
road to Thunder Mountain is pro-
posed via Warrens, to which place
a state wagon road runs, passing
Lardo on the west. This road
really starts at Weiser, the junction
of the O. S. L. and the P. & I. N.
railroads, the latter line extending
to Council, where connection is made
by freight teams, which pass
through Meadows, on to the Payette
Lake and thence to Warrens. There
are two or three trails to Thunder
Mountain on the east side of the
valley, as we'll as the wagon road.
At the head of Long Valley lies
a body of water, named Big Payette
Lake, which for beauty and the
grandeur of it's surroundings is I'M
surpassed. 1t is impossible to per-
fectly describe it in all it's lovliness
and varying moods, the pen has
not yet been made that can do it.
We shall from time to time publish
articles descriptive of it, and also
views, which speak palmer and
with more effect than words can,
whether printed or spoken. Lardo
is situated on the south shore of
this lake. A number of people
visit it each summer in quest of
rest and recreation, to fish and
hunt, and to enjoy the grand seen
cry and cool, invigorating atmos-
phere, full of ozone, conveying
health to the sick, rest to the weary,
cheerfulness to the respondent, and
making those who are troubled with
none of these ills feel better for
having seen nature in her most
glorious garb and smelt her sweet
est breath.
Long Valley has no railroad at
present, the nearest railroad being
the Pacific & Idaho Northern at

When he knew he was cinched for fair, he
said "You get $500 for this. Call It OF and

WICHITA ALLEGES DISCRIMINATION
Complaint Filed ON Freight Rates on
sugar from New Orleans.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 23-Acting imme-
diately on complaint from shippers of
Wichita, Kan, alleging that a number of
large railroads threaten TO advance the
rates on sugar from New Orleans and that
these az wed as the published tariff con-
stitute serious discriminat ton against
Wichita In favor of Kansas City, ST To-
seph, Omaha and Sioux City, the Interstate
Commerce commission today set a hearing
to be held at Chicago on December 20 to
investigate the subject. The complaint was
iled with the commission by the Lehman
Higginson Grocery company, the Wichita
wholesale Grocery company, the Ayles-
bury Mercantile company and W. s. Jett
ana Frank c. Wood against the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe. the Chicago, Rock I.
land & Pacific, the St. Louis and San Fran
cisco, the Missouri Pacific. the Illinois Cen
tral and the Texas & Pacific railroads 1t
Is set out that although the distance from
New Orleans to Wichita is shorter than the
St Joseph, Omaha and Sioux City dis
tances, and although shipments from New
Orleans TO ST. Joseph and Omaha pass
through Wichita the published railroad rate
per hundred pounds for the Transportation
or sugar In carload lots from New Orleans
TO wichita is % cents, and an advance to
u cents is threatened, whereas to Kansas
CITY, St Joseph. Omaha and Sioux CITY
the rate In each case is 20 cents and an
advance to 30 cents is threatened. The
complainants allege that the rates charged
and threatened to be charged are unjust
and discriminative in favor Of the Missouri
river points. and that the railroads violate
the long and short haul clause Of the I'm.
terstate commerce law as well as the or
ders OF the commission. The complainants
ask that the commission request the At
torney General to direct the United States
attorney for the district OF Kansas 10 in
sutute necessary proceedings for the en-
foreement Of the law against the defendant
railroads. This step would not be taken
by the commission except after a hearing
OF the case. Representatives of all the
ROADS named have been summoned to an
pear at the Chicago hearing.
