row at 2:30 o'clock. The contestants
Will be Percy Murdock. champion. and
Carl Gardner, challenger.
Champion Murdock is picked by a
majority to win. but Gardner is con-
ceded a chance by one and all. He
played fine tennis in the Hnals against
Schmidt. and Murdock will have to

WARRANTS TO BE SWORN

District Attorney Says Use OF Harm

Violation of the Inv.

Health Officer Ragan had a confer
ence yesterday with District Attorney
Byington relative to swearing out war
rants for the arrest of the butchers
who adulterated their meats to give
them a fresh color. Byington is of the
opinion that 1t will not be necessary
to prove that the coloring matter used
is deIeterious to health in order to se-
cure a conviction. He says 1t will only
be necessary to show that the adulter-
ants were used. 1t was decided to
swear out warrants for some sixty-five
of the alleged offenders next Monday
iByington takes no stock in the claim
made that the use of harmless adulter-
ants is not a violation of the law.

HIGHLY ENCOURAGED.
Copper King People Feeling Good
Over Their Property--The Claire
Still Showing up Flee.

The directors of the Copper King
Mining Co. met Wednesday night
in the Bear Lake Realty Co., office.
The assessment recently levied
against the stock, was found to have
all been paid except about $40, and
part of this will be paid before the
stock is sold.
The affairs of the company are in
fine shape, financially and otherwise.
There is money enough on hand to
pay all Indebtedness and to also pay
for all the work now under contract,
and will still leave nice balance in
the hands of the treasurer.
All the treasury stock was with
drawn from the market until such
time as the directors direct.
Manager Fuller reported work as
progressing well in the drift, at the
bottom of the SHAFT, and it is expec-
ted that the lead will be encountered
within few days.
AS the Copper King claims adjoin
the Claire group on the north, and
as both companies are developing
the same lead, it is expected that
the former will be in as fine ore, as
the latter company is now, within x
few days.
The directors feel highly encour
aged at the splendid outlook of their
property, and the faith the stock
holders have shown by paying their
assessments SO promptly.
J. A. Rostan, J. L. Underwood
and Ed French visited the Claire
property yesterday and they report
that prospects are growing brighter
all the time. As the incline goes
down the ore continues to show up
little better, and the Indications
lead them to believe that they will
soon strike a big body of ore.
Mr.. Aikens, a mining expert from
California, in company with Art
Young, visited the Cooper belt"
yesterday. While he had nothing
IN particular to say for publication
at this time, yet from the few re-
marks that he made, it was quite
evident that Mr.. Aikens was most
favorably impressed with the claims
he in spected. We will no doubt
hear more from him later on.

LET'S DO SOMETHING.
It is Time Something was Being
Done if We Except to Have
Water Works ShiS Year


this year toward securing system
OF water works? If anything Is to
be done, il is time some action was
being taken. The first step to be
taken should be the holding of
mass meeting Tor the purpose of dis
cnssing the question thoroughly
from every standpoint. We believe
that some data has been gathered
by the Commercial club as to the
approximate cost of water system.
This could be stated at the meeting,
and the great benefits to be derived
could be plainly set forth.
Of course there Is only one prop
osition to be considered, and that is
to bond the city for sufficient sum
to put in system that would supply
water enough for the railroad COM
pany, for fire protection and for
culinary purposes. But before the
city council goes to the expense OF
calling an election to vote on issuing
bonds, we ought to be reasonably
sure that the proposition would
carry. Lf the matter was put to our
citizens in the proper light, we firm
ly believe that they would vote for
bonds by a big majority.
There is one thing certain, and
that is if the city doesn't act and act
soon on this question, the railroad
company will proceed to put in a
system of its own, and when 1t does
the main source of revenue that the
city would derive from it's water
works, will be forever lost. The
railroad is anxious that the city
should do something In this matter,
and they would pay a water rental
of at least $1,000 year, which
amount would about pay the inter
est on the bonds. The railroad
company has already made prelim.
mary survey from the city to Joe's
Gap, with the view of putting in its
own system, and If the city should
defer action this year or should the
people vote against the proposition
there is no doubt but the company
would have its own water system i'll
operation here before the end of the
year.
AS we have before stated Mont
pelier is probably the only town o.
its size in the state that is without
water works, and in view OF the
fact that a system, which woult
furnish an abundance of the pures
water, can be put in here at very
moderate cost, we do not under
stand why a single citizen OF tn
town should be opposed to 1t.
They say all good things come t
,hose who wait, but it is certain W

Fun at Oakley's Hall.


The indoor ball game last Satur-
day night between the two teams
composed of young ladies, was ex-
citing and afforded no end of amuse-
ment to the spectators. The teams
were under the captainship of
Connie Mcintosh and Esther u nder
wood. There were some good
players in both teams, in fact some
of them played ball all the same as
professional league players. The
score was 81 to 81 in favor of Miss
McIntosh's team.
Tomorrow night there will be a
game of ball between picked nine
from the '.big" girls and juvenile
team under the captalnship OF June
Hull. There will also be skating
races and other amusements. Don't
miss the fun, admission only l0cts.
Last Saturday the supreme court
rendered a decision IN which it
holds to be unconstitutional the
Boise ordinance which made it un-
lawful "for any person maintaining
saloon, bar room or drinking
shop, or any apartment thereto at
tached, to permit females to enter
their place of business. The court
holds that the city is empowered to
prohibit females from entering
places where intoxicating liquors are
sold for immoral purposes, but the
ordinance in question is declared too
sweeping that it constitutes an
abridgment of constitutional rights.
