Took Close Match in Golf
From Richard Dayie
SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
Large Gallery Followed Players About
Barre Golf Club Links and Were
Rewarded by Witnessing Some
Fine Work

f. d. Field OF Montpelier on Satur-
day afternoon won the championship
Of the Barre Golf Club after the finest
match play ever seen on the local links.
He captured the title only after a hard
match with Richard Davie OF this city,
the runner-up. Both these players put
up remarkably even game in the semi
finals as well as in the finals. At the
finish the Montpelier man was up,
and one to play.
In the semi-finals Davie was matched
against c. A. Dodge, taking the match
easily, z up, and six to play, after
twelve holes Dodge did not play in
his usual form, his score for the first
nine holes being 40, while Davie skipped
around in a AZ. Fields match against
L. J. Bailey was trife closer, fifteen
holes being necessary to decide the win
ner. Field was 5 up, and 3 to play,
at the finish of the 18th hole.
After brief rest the two contestants
for the championship cup started out,
followed by a big gallery who were

match. They halved with a 4 on the

The Coming Town

A lady who has spent several
weeks investigating commercial
affairs and resources in eastern
Idaho, after getting busy for sew
era days in each of the towns
from Mackay to St. Anthony, and
from Beaver to Oxford, summed
it all up this week in these words:
II am convinced that Blackfoot
is gong to be the town. 1t really
can't help it," Now, wouldn't
that start a business mems associa-
tion of itself! 'Some towns have
greatness thrust upon them," and
some have to get up and hustle
for it. Why can't we do both!

Ought to Get Robbed

The Idaho Falls Register, in
commenting on the shortage in the
accounts of Manager Grim of the
telephone exchange of that place,
says that a company that will ask
a man of Mr.. Grim's ability to ill
such position for $S5 month
ought to get robbed every month
in the year. That may be good
policy but it is bad ethics. Stat
ing it conversely, company that
gets robbed out of a couple of
thousand dollars a year by the
local manager, ought to be let off
with a moderate salary. Reports
do not show that Mr.. Grim has
asked for a raise or that he has
expressed dissatisfaction with the
salary.

Back from the East

John Clark, of Mackay, has
been out in Colorado for a week
or two, and there met j. d. Mil
ler and J. G. Leggett, of Indiana,
both young men looking for
fields to conquer, and of course
John got busy and convinced them
that Idaho, and Lost river valley
in particular, was the proper place
so they came to see. They went
out on the Mackay branch Mon
day, and John was showing them
the country right. If each man
in Custer county would 60 out and
get two men to locate and invest
in the county, the taxes would be
cut in two, and the development
of the country would be quickened
about half during the yeer. Next
year the new men would be bring
ing in their share of new settlers
and there would be a young boom.

Current Event Club

The general meeting of the
Current Club met at the home of
Mrs. Simmons, last Saturday af-
noon, March 25. A large num-
Der of ladies' were out although the
day was very disagreeable.
The meeting was in charge of
the history department of the club
and the following program was
rendered:
Mrs. Clara Hol.brook gave cur
rent events; Mrs. DeKay read an
interesting paper on Richard III,
also several selections from
Shakespeare's Richard III. Miss
Wright and Miss Maurine Chal
mers favored the ladies with a
piano duet, by Rubenstein, which
was greatly enjoyed. Mrs. Civ
ems read an excellent paper on
English Literature, beginning with
the very infancy of English writ
ing and outlining it through the
"War of Roses.'
The ladies were much disap-
pointed at not hearing the other
two musical numbers which were
on the program.
A short business meeting fol
lowed the program.

PERIOD OF STOCKS AND BONDS.

PERIOD OF STOCKS AND BONDS.
Now the h1stlers got together
in the market place and said:
"Verily, be damned"' And they
got their crowbars.
And it came to pass that when
ever they turned something over
the knockers got out their ham
mers and made noise.
And the hustlers counseled to-
gether and said: "We will have
a fair and Olympian sports, and
of everything that is raised in the
land we will have some on ex-
hibit." Carrots and pumpkins,
tubers and fruits, cattle and sheep,
both male and female, some of
every kind, even unto boys and
girls, with a bachelor superlntend-
ent of bables;;'' and by shrewd
talk all the people in the market
place, even unto the money
changers, were induced to take
stock. But after the fair every
body went back and lay down,
not knowing that the city had be-
come the second place in the EN-
pire, Boise being the first.
Now it came to pass that the
people fell asleep, but the hustlers
rose up and girded up their loins
and got their crowbars.
And they said: ''We will have
a sugar factory, and those who
can must buy stock and those who
cannot must raise beets, and those
who will do neither must take
their medicine, for we will give
them none of the trade of the
sugar factory, nor any employ
ment arising from it," and it was
so, and those who refused to DC
! that which the hustlers demanded
} of them in reason, awoke to fnc
, the wall turned to their faces.
Selah!
Now it came to pass that many
stock companies were formed ane

form and void, and sagebrush and
cactus were upon the face of the
town, and the body of Lewis
strobe about among the bushes.
And cowboys and freightegs
came and went and "stopped'

and with Stevens, and with War

was at the bridge which spanned

And Gould said: "Let there be

And Gould said: "Let there
be a warehouse, that goods may
be transferred to the wagons of
the treighters who shall haul them
to the north and west;;" ana there
was a warehouse.
And Bergman and Bunting and
Lyman aud Wallace said: "Let
there be bridge built over the
Snake river at the ferry, that
Blackfoot may become a CONNER
cial center;;' and the bridge was
built.
Aod Gould said: '.Let the
railroad be extended to Montana,
that Mormon pumpkins may be
exchanged for miners gold, BY

up their quirts and said: "Lo, II
will be the end of us, for we mus
have freight to haul or we perish.

And it came to pass that the
town needed a great school build
ing. and the capitalists said to the
people: "Go to, and vote bond
and for every dollar in bonds that
that you issue we will give you a
dolMin gold, but with ont bonds
we vii furnish you no gold. y
And the people voted the bonds
by a majority of two score and
six.
Howheit, there were certain
pestilent fellows who went about
among the people and said:
"What is this thing that ye have
done? Do ye not know that ye
have placed a yoke on yourselves
and your issue even to the third
generation! This money must be
paid back with usury?'
But the capitalists went about
among the people and spake com
fortingly to them and SAID: "Do
We not know that the bonds
bring ye a school, and with a
school your children are educated
and with education they will be
able to make money to remove the
yoke! For without the usury we
would not loan the gold, but
would invest 1t in lots at Ogden,
which is booming
And the people, seeing that
they were into it, and that they
could not side step the wise men,
SAID: "For the love of our chill.
, dren we have done this thing, and
when they grow up poor, but
smart, they will bless the day we
did this" And it was so.
And it came to pass that the
people of the west side raised 8
great hue and cry against paying
their toll to get to town, and
the business men dared not joir
in the cry lest they lose theiI
trade and it 60 to Idaho Falls
and the commissioners were pres

) the commissioners bought tn
bridge for nine thousand pieces 0
gold and six hundred pieces o
