Colonel Miller's Speech.

Colonel Allen Miller, the Commission.
er Of Immigration, Labor and Statistics,
is travelling with Governor Gooding and
talked for an hour after the governor
had left the hall. He is not very
fluent speaker, but he deals with facts,
and throws in some humor. In speak
ing Of the resources Of Idaho, he referr
ed to the fact that Idaho needs to be ad-
vertised SO the world will know what we
have. He says wealthy people in the
east are going to Europe every year in
search OF scenery and sons-in. law, not
knowing that we have plenty of good
material for both. He gave a lot of
figures to show how rapidly Idaho is
settling and developing and the neces-
slty Of keeping national administration
in power that does not tinker with the
tariff on lead, wool, sugar and other
'things on which our business interests
primarily depend.

Beet Grinding Begins

The sugar company began grinding
beets Monday morning and things are
moving off well. The beets are good
yield and Of good quality. The men who
are hauling and weighing observe that
they are much heavier than last year
and farmers are feeling very cheerful
over the prospects Of good returns per
acre.
Perhaps the most threatening feature
confronting the management is the coal
question and nobody hopes for a stag
nation Of business that would make
coal dull sale in Idaho. At present
the mines find it impossible to supply
the demand and we wish the same could
be said Of the product of the sugar
factory.

thing is wrong with the goods or they dc
not suit, they will not exchange them
for you. They pay no taxes into oul
city or county treasury, with which our
schools are maintained, roads, bridge and
sidewalks built. They do not contri-
butte to our churches, charitable institu
tions, nor to our poor. Then why should
you be so willing to patronize them?
You know that they must make large
profits and that their bargains are usu.
ally bargains Of repentance for the buy
er. Two Of the large mail order houses
Of Chicago are rated worth from ten to
twenty million dollars each, and they
have made these vast fortunes by selling
inferior goods at prices of superior arti-
cles. Still, farmers and others are con-
stantly sending their money to get mail
order bargains, and when they get bit
they say nothing, but bite on the next
tempting bait.-Ex.

Karl Payne's Speech

Karl Payne, young, lawyer from
Boise, and the Democratic nominee fol
Attorney General, spoke at the court
house on Saturday evening. He is good
speaker and spent his time with the
Mormon question, saying that the Nor
mon leaders had not quit the practice OF
polygamy and that they still taught the
people that their religious duty is con-
sidered of more Importance than their
fealty to country. He submitted proof
that in individual cases where the laws
Of the land conficted with the tenets
Of the church, that the laws of the land
were ignored. He said he was waging
this campaign to show the Mormons
that they we're wrong in this matter
and to show the Gentiles the danger Of
oath bound societies having anything to
to do with politics. He spoke Of the
necessity of having the proposed change
of venue law to enable the state to pros
ecute the Bulge Family of Bear Lake
County and other cases like them. He
said the polygamous children growing
up had always boen taught that they
were not illegitimate children, but were
the product of higher law that is not
generally appreciated by the people of
the earth, and that they, who are the
product of sin and crime, instead Of be-
ing humiliated by the consciousness of
it, hold themselves above those who
came into the world according to the ap-
proved customs Of society and that peo-
pie who profess to believe in polygamy,
accept the belief as religious duty and
not as principle of nature. He declar
ed that this is campaign for the eman-
cipation Of the Mormons from the tyran-
ny of the priesthood and not cam
paign to disfranchise them, for if they
do not belong to an order that teaches
polygamy they will not be interfered
with. He emphasized the idea that he
and Judge Stockslager had enunciated
this principle and that any Mormon will
say that neither the church nor any Of
its dignitaries ever influence his vote,
but that as matter of practice he no.
sooner learns what is the wish of Joseph
r. Smith than he prepares his mind to
make that his own wish and to vote ac-
cordlngly. Our comments on the mat
ter will be found on .he editorial page.

An Old Resident Lost

Robert Mackay well.to- do farmer OF
this locality has been missing since
Thursday evening September 9th.
When last seen he was going up the
railroad track afoot in the direction Of
his home.
On Sunday it was reported that he
was at Idaho Falls, but this was found
to be mistake, and on Tuesday search
ing parties Of both white men and In.
dians, went out to look for him, and have
continued the search without finding
any trace of him.
He is not very strong and it is feared
that he is lost and lies sufer,ng.in some

Growth of the Beet Industry

The beet sugar output Of Utah and
Idaho for this season is estimated at
30O,OOO,OOO pounds. This is more beet
sugar than was produced in the United
States prior to ten years ago. Loaded
into cars, it will require 25O trains of 30
cars each. That is remarkable
growth and it is noteworthy for 1T is less
than ten years since the Ogden factory
was constructed and all the plants north
of that point have been built since then.
Ten years ago the farmers of Utah and
: Idaho were strangers to the beet in
dustry. They knew nothing of beet
cultivation, except that VI Whici. they
had knowledge thru published reports
Of the crops grown around Lehi. Tho
inexperienced, they have displayed con-
siderable ability in the way Of adapta-
ton and now they are becoming expert.
The percentage Of saccharine and the
tonnage is larger than it was. But there
is still room for improvement. The
farmers have much to learn before they
become the careful cultivators Of the
soil that the Germans are known to be-.
In the beet districts Of Germany they
practice intensive cultivation and they
draw from Mother Earth all it IS cap
able Of yielding without impoverishment
And that is what Idaho farmers and the
tillers Of the soil everywhere thruout
this region must accomplish.
Sugar beet production is doing much
to give to US a farming class equipped to
scientifically cultivate the irrigated
acres Of these valleys and when Secre-
tary Jas. Wilson an the Department Of
Agriculture have developed the one
germ beet seed SO we can raise sugar
beets without the expense Of thinning
we shall have a much better business in
the sugar industry.

BIG FIRE AT MACkAY
Heavy Loss at Smelter- -Chas. Nelson
x Loses His Life and J. X. France
Badly Burned Operations

Badly Burned-OperationS
I Will Continue.
Fire broke out in the top Of the big
sampler at the Mackay Smelter at
o'clock Wednesday morning, and de-
stroyed the sampler, the ore bins, the
machine shops and the Shay engine.
The smelter was in operation and
three long whistles reused the citizens,
brought the fire equipment and all the
citizens into fighting line and saved the
big smelter. The loss is estimated at
100000. Work will not be interrupted
at the mine, but the smelter will be out
Of commission until another Shay engine
can be brought to haul the ore trains.
This may take some time, as the manu-
facturers have many orders ahead.
1t is not known how the fire started.
Charlie Nelson, Of Idaho Falls, and J. X.
France, Of Blackfoot, we're on duty in
the ore bins,ne the base of the sampler,
and the fire started so or 60 feet above
them.
They we're in separate bins and Mr..
France climbed up ladder to the main
stairway, where he was terribly burned
in making his way out. The men out
side opened the chute of the other bin,
hoping Nelson would come down the
chute, and he made the attempt but
stuck in the passage and was soon over
come by the heat.

VIII Expert the Accounts.

w. HI. Moore, an expert accountant
whose headquarters are at Salt Lake,
has been engaged to check up the &C.
counts of all the Bingham county Off
cials who have handled any of the peo-
ple's money since January l. 1891, when
the first officers we're inaugurated un,
der statehood.
Mr.. Moore makes a business OF this
kind of work and operates all over the
northwest. He has just finished such a
task in Ada County and will be here for
about two months on this job, perhaps
longer. He has one assistant and un-
less they find errors that require detail
ed Investigations of each item in [some
departments, the two will do all the
work. II this extra work has to be done,
he will put on more force to do it.
Mr.. Moore informed us that .@he has
been engaged in this work for 20 years
and has gone over the books Of about G5
counties, besides many corporations.
When the work is completed and ac-
cepted, the commissioners cause the re-
port to be published in one or more of
the local papers and issued in pham.
phlet form to be sent to all the taxpay-
ers, SO they may know just what theil
officers have done with the public mon-
ey. 1t will cost the county S1oO0 to
have this done, or an average Of S66
year for the fifteen years.

Bryan. They repudiated part Of the
platform of the Party in State Con-
vention at Couer d'Alene in August
1905, and pledged the nominees Of this
convention not to support Fred T. Du-
bois for the United States Senate, but to
oppose him in every honorable way.
A minority report was made, which
differed from the majority report only
on the Dubois question. They endorsed
the Couer dAlene platform and pledged
themselves to support Fred 7. Dubois
for the United States Senate. The ma
jority report was adopted by vote Of 16
to s and the Dubois men walked out,
followed by large number of specta-
tors The majority then took a recess
Of one hour to discuss the candidates
for county Offices and the Legislative
ticket.
The following ticket was inally plac-
cd in nomination:
State Senator, Sam j. Rich.
Representatives., Ed Holden, j. @.
Rushton and w. w. Adamson.

INTERESTING SUGAR BEET NEWS
A Beet Seed Containing Only One
Germ Is Being Pr0p0gated.

A Beet Seed Containing Only One
Germ Is Being Propogated.
As result of experiments on the old
Woodmansee ranch, now owned by Hav,
ermeyer, the sugar king, discovery has
been made which will revolutionize the
whole system Of beet planting. A dis
patch from Washington, D. G., dated
August 26, says:
"Professor w. w. Tracy of the De.
partment Of Agriculture has just return
ed from Idaho, Utah and Colorado,
where he has been looking after the ex-
pertinent with beet seed on which the
department has been working for years.
AS a result OF these operations it has
been announced by Charles F. Saylor,
special agent of this work, that a one
germ seed has been developed which
will solve the problem Of economic beet
culture in this country.
"This IL one of the most remarkable
processes in plant developement the de-
partment scientists have undertaken. A
beet seed in fact is not seed but a
cluster Of seeds in small husk planted.
each germ inside the husk starts little
plant. The small clusters thus crowd
each other and it it IS necessary to pull,
by hand, all but onsinoraef that it may
have room to develope beet hit for sugar
Abroad where labor is cheap, this is
done by hand; in this country nobody
will do such work. Farmers want to
cultivate their farms from spring seat
ed cultvator drawn by four horses. So
the beet sugar industry has grown slow
ly because there was nobody to pull the
superf1ous beets.
"Secretary Wilson set his scientists at
work to develop beet seed with
single germ in it. This Professor Tracy
soys, they have done. Last years seeds
contained 1913 per cent OF one germ
seeds. The experiments began four
years ago. In three years more OF evo-
luton, say scientists, they will have
seed with uniformly single germ.
Then it can be planted by machinery at
proper intervals, no pulling Of the extra
plants will be necessary, cnltivating- and
digging can be done by hand and Amer
,can beets will easily supply all the
country's sugar"

chew of tobacco and most Of them will
set their teeth right where some other
man gnawed out a chew. Offer him a
piece of pie at home from which his
wife or one of the children had taken a
bite and he would holler his head off.
At home he will net drink out of a glass
cup from which some one Of the family
had been drinking. Call him into the
back stall Of livery barn, pull out a
bottle, and he will stick the neck Of the
bottle half way down his throat in or
