SOME CONSOLATION. =.

We don't know how the men,
women and children out on the
Government reclamation lands en-.
joyed themselves on Thanksgiving
day. We have not heard of their
making any unctuous offerings to
the reclamation service. We doubt
it they were overcome with thank
fulness for the blessings which ha1
poured down upon them during
the past year. President Roosevelt
and all the Governors cf all the
States, and probably all the Con-
gressmen and Senators and secreta-
ries and directors and engineers
| were thankful and as full of mex
pressible JOY as wine cask without
a bunghole. But the homesteaders
on the north bench and on Deer
Flat could not feel quite that way.
But we have something consolatory
to offer. There are companions in
sorrow and distress. Up at Mini
doka there is weeping and wailing
and gnashing of teeth. Read from
the Burley Bulletin:
THE citizen locators on the
south side of Snake River, in the
Minidoka reclamation project, Gas.
sia county, Idaho, are praying for
an answer to very civil question.
In the name of humanity, this is a
righteous one, and demands an an
swer, and soon:
when will the settlers on the
south side receive water? This
question is asked in a respectful and
courteous manner. If the reclama-
ton service does not answer, it is un-
fair and brutal treatment to 500
American citizens who, with their
wives and babies, are doing time
ON arid homesteads, hoping against
hope. Are they not entitled to an
answer to this question, which is
bread and butter to them? If some
of these Government officials who
are living on the fat of the land
had to spend a month on one of
these arid ranches, and be kept en-
the rack as to when water would
be given them, and when they
wanted drink of water had to go
miles for 1t, their howls would
make coyote ashamed of him
self. The Boise Payette project is
hanging fire. Condemnation pro-
ceedings are talked of. In the
writer's opinion this is bluff. The
reclamation department will be
chary of such procedure. If mat
ters are not shaped up right by the
time congress converes there will
be stunts doing. What is the mat
ter with returning to the Minidoka
project the $1,000, 900 diverted
from said project, and carrying out

BRILLIANT CHURCH WEDDING.
Nuptials of Mr. f. |. BoyCe and Miss Hal Phillips Celebrated Wednesday
 Evening at Methodist Church.

! lZoQ Tn one 0I the SWeeCoSC and prettiest church weddings ever witnessed in Newport, in the marriage0of MT. E. L. Boyce and Miss Hal Phillips, at the i Methodist church Wednesday evening at eight o'clock.
 The remodeled church is we'll arranged for lhe decorator and ] it could hardly have been made more attractive than upon this occasion, when the color scheme was pink and white.
 Tier after tier of palms and ferns rose from the altar, mass ing their beautiful effect in a mountain of greenery from which the soft rays from n.y. riad of candles liveaed a sombre background into the mirthful and joyous appearance that should clothe such happy events. From the choir loft thus hid- den, where Miss Blanche Evans, the eleven year old cousin of the bride, presided over the piano, ran ropes of southern smilax and English ivy far out over the aud- itorium proper and extending to the arched side windows. Over the altar hung an elabo- rately made wedding bell of brides roses touched with green and for clapper an electric light swung beneath the canopy to tell it's beauty. The color scheme was well followed every where and the decorations that received so much compliment were the work of Mesdames R. w. Randy and J. w. Stayton.
 To Mendlessohn's march, after "Changeless" had been sweetly sung by Mrs. c. A. Hillhouse, the bridal party entered by the rear door. First the two ushers, Messrs. F. P. Skipwith and c. E. Carroll singly via the center aisles, next the natron of honor, Mrs. H. E. Cobb, followed by the groonnsn1en and bridesmaids advancing by opposite aisles, Mir. B. E. Scott and Miss Jose phine Phillips; Mir. John w. Stayton and Miss Tillie Sprigg; MT. Joseph M. Stayton and Miss Dovie Erwin; MT. w. '. Dunn and Miss Nell Rhodes.
 The maid of honor, Miss Hes- ter Phillips, preceded the bride upon the arm of her father, Judge J. w. Phillips, the latter being met at the altar by the groom and his best man, Mir. :; Alcorn Ferguson, who had ent. cred from the side door.
 The Episcopal service was i'm pressively said by Rev. R. B. Willis. the ring ceremony being used. The performance of the rite was assisted in by Rev. M. B. Umsted.
 Mendlessohn's was again used for the recessional, the party leaving the church by the left center aisle.
 The bride is lovely young woman whose friends willincly pay tribute to her charms of mind and heart. Beloved by all, the graces of her character and i disposition will make happy the home of him who has won her. The groom is a popular young lawyer, and has made a most excellent administration of the offices of county clerk and judge. In him the people of Jackson have we'll felt a confidence that was unshaken, and few men ir public or business life have more friends.
 The Independent wishes then happy union through long anc useful lives, that shall redounc to their good name and bless them in their daily walk, a liv. ing exemplihcation of love and right conduct, walking hand ir

communication m your last weekly issue from a correspond ,ent at Tupelo that had more than passing interest for me. As the news items from and of Tu- pelo's growth looked good, and | had often wondered why the happenings in and about Tupel0 were not narrated in the county papers, for it has been made evident by the conmunica- tion spoken of that there was something doing at Tupelo, and if your euphonious correspondent had not tried to kill too many birds with one stone he could have brought to light many other items of news which tend to show that Tupelo is growing sure enough, but as l have been made party to another cause that he sets up, l am forced to deny myself the pleasure of rehears- ing the creditable achievements of Tupelo, and apply my words to my defense.
 I have heard Of your cor respondent N. o. Budweiser being in Tupelo several times, but he has no standing there. I know he does not enjoy the re- gard of near as many people as does l. M. Budweiser. l can re- call several occasions when the remark was made, IN. o. Bud weiser is in town today" but none seemed anxious to meet him. On the contrary, most of those who were glad to hang around I. M. Budweiser would take 'hop'' and skip home:
 MT. Editor, I want to put jocu- Iarity aside and speak in earn estness my views upon the doctrine advanced by N. o., whoever he may B.
 It seems that l have wrought ire in the mind oI this supporter of Jeff, who says he is bound to him. I'll venture the guess that the bonds are not holy.
 To think that any one should have 80 little perspection that they could not see and know that what l said about Bud Taylor authorizing the organization of the kangaroo court, and appoint ing a judge to try Jeff, etc., was nothing but a canard, a naade-up story, sure enough.
 And ] mean to say now that the penalty. it is said, l suggest ed was not far out of the way, when account is taken of the many assinine episodes that mark the checkered and fetid political career .of the would-be Jupiter of the politics of Arkan- sas, and the valiant defender of Jeff is entitled to all the hay that is left over.
 IN. O." need not trouble him. self to furnish affidavits to prove that foisted the story upon the fellow" at Newport, as ! ad' init the charge.
 But I deny the right of IN. O." to preclude me from my say on political issues in any county or state in this glorious Union. Evidently he would do so if he could, or he would not make the kick he does about my putting in in Jackson county politics, while living in Woodruff county. He says he could tell of a lot of things that I say about Jeff and Senator Berry. He may tell all I sav about either, but he will have to show more discernment than he has shown in his record ed kick as to the misrepresenta- tions I made anent the kangaroo court or he will subject himself to strong horse laugh.
 It is probable that IN. O.. " has been infused in part, like his acknowledged master, who be-

 The large reception hall was set apart for the collection ot ] wedding gifts, which came from a score of outside states, and presented one of the most daz- zling arrays of presents ever re- ceived by a bridal couple in this city, and was Q further evidence of the love and esteem with which MT.
