One of the notable visitors at the
Lewis and Clark exposition last week
was w. r. Shannon, of Fowler, Cal,
who is thu son of George Shannon, the
youngest member of the Lewis and
Clark exploring party of a hundred
years ago. George Shannon was known
as ''the boy Shannon" on account of
his youth. After the expedition he be-
came lawyer and was a distinguished
jurist in Missouri He remembers
hearing his father tell thrilling tales
about his exp riences on the long jour
ney from St. Louis to the mouth of
the Columbia, which the fair at Port
land is commemorating.
The lively little town of Jordan Val
ley, surrounded for many miles with
hay ranches, horse, cattle and sheep
raisers, almost everyone of whom has a
bank account and a check book from
some outside town, has come to the
conclusion that the place is important
enough to do its own banking business
and is organing banking institution
of its own, backed by some of its solid
men. J. r. Blackaby, president of the
Ontario bank, formerly a Jordan Val
ley merchant and still Interested in
one or the big stores there, and Fred ].
Palmer, manager of the j. V. Mercan-
tile Company, are in the proposed or
ganization, and it ii presumed num-

Silver City "enjoyed'' just little the
quietest Fourth of July it has been
our pleasure to see here. Tt seemed as
| if everyone who had the price of ride
got aboard one of Gardner Bros. hacks
and went to DeLamar, except a few
families who made up little picnic or
| fishing parties and struck out for some
grove or stream to spend the day, away
from the small boy and his firecracker.
During the day number of jolly min
ers came down town and had a good
time drinking Owyhee Brewery beer
(as good as ever was made), and got
jolly but never boisterous or quarrel
some. Si Maxon, the only conservator
of the peace left in the town, walked
about all day with never thing to do,
and the keys to the cooler we're never
turned. It was Glorious Fourth. The
most beautiful flag in all the world
futtered in the breeze from almost
every building in town, looking only
the more beautiful because of the
serene quietude.

There is some fighting still in the
outer suburbs, and cases of the
treacherous stabbing of soldiers are
growing more frequent. Hundreds OF
domicilary visits and arrests have
been made. All suspected persons
are stopped, searched and arrested If
found to be carrying weapons. Care

Denver, Colo, Jan. 31.-With the
testimony of Chairman Williams OF
the Republican city committee, given
before the legislative gubernatorial
contest committee, the attorneys for
Former Governor Peabody rested
their case tonight and tomorrow Gov
Isrnor Adams will begin offering EVIL
dence in his own behalf. From the
statement made by Chairman Wilt
ans while on the stand in response
to a question by Attorney Ward, who
has conducted the examination for
Peabody, it is gathered that the lat
ter will ask the committee to throw
out the entire vote in 100 Denver pre-
cincts, counting only the ballots cast
in the remaining 90 precincts. Ac-
cording to Williams statement this
would give Peabody a plurality OF O.,
| 40 in Denver. Deducting Adams
plurality of 1913 outside of Denver
Peabody would have 1877 more votes
than Adams.

will remain here for several days in

This means that the Frisco will
complete it's tracks from Memphis to
point opposite Baton Rouge and
will then transfer across the river
and use the Yazoo and Mississippi
Valley tracks INFO the city.
Mr.. Harahan said that the Frisco
had already begun construction work
| from Memphis and that it would not
| be more than a few months before
they would be able to run trains from
Memphis over their own or leased
tracks. This will not mean that tn,
Yazoo and Mississippi Valley roaC
will decreace their service. as all 10
cal traffic will continue to be haule'
by that line.
f may be possible thar az SOM
time in the future the Frisco vii
build its own tracks INFO the eity
but this statement by Mr. Harahal
would indicate that Il is some time il
the distant future.
