 Paul came to Mesa about a year ago and later took charge of the shop which was at that time being run by Ernest Walpole. Joe Robertson of the Parlor saloon furnished the money for the transaction and took a mort gage on the shop as a safeguard, and at present has the books left by Paul. He states that his loss will be but a few dollars. Sam Passey has an ac- count against Paul for room and board amounting to about s1O. but before the man made his departure he went to the restaurant and gave an order on some cooking utensils.

 A suit was to have been brought against Paul yesterday in the justice court by O. s. Stapley. one of the heaviest loosers. but in all probability the whole amount charged up to the experience account which generally costs more or less anyway.

MESA
IMPROVEMENTS AT MILL.
Extensive, up-to-pate Machinery Places it On Equal With Like
 Concerns in Valley.

The Mesa Hay, Grain and Milling company in a short time will have plant with which a flour can be made that will meet the requirements or those who will have nothing but the best. and by so doing the boundry lines of Maricopa empire will be raised just little higher. and make the patronising of home industries pleas ure and a profit instead of a duty.
 For some time the company has felt me growing need of an up-to-date plant. one that would be able to meet the demands of an increasing trade and growing population. and the new Improvements are the result. The capacity of the mill will be raised from a 25-barrel concern to one with so barrels per day capacity. This will place the Mesa mill on a par with like concerns in the valley as to capa- city, and in advance of any in the val ley when the modern machinery is to be taken into consideration.
 Mill manufacturing representatives are here figuring with the local men on the plant and ft has been settled that either the Nordick, Mormon or the Barnhard & Lee machinery will be in- stalled.
 While it is impossible to make a high grade of flour out of low grade of wheat with any kind of machinery. has been inculcated into the farmers and year by year they are selecting their seed with a view of producing the best milling purposes. The Bark, Kings. Early and Kansas Hard are varieties of hard wheat which have passed the experimental stage and have proven their worth as a producer and also meeting all the requirements of good flour making variety. Ore- gon Blue Stem is looked upon as be- ing a good producer, but being a soft wheat is not considered Al for mili- ing purposes.
 Right here 1t might be well to add that 1t is a mistaken idea to suppose that seed must be shipped in each year in order to get the best results, for such is not the case. It has been proven beyond doubt within the past three years that hard wheat. the best that grows, will reproduce itself in the Salt river valley

Stetson's Uncle Toms Cabin" is the mammoth double production of "Un- cle Toms Cabin" which will appear on Monday night, Nov. 3. at the Mesa opera house. The rendition of Uncle Toms Cabin by this well known and we'll liked company will never grow old. This management evidently be- lieves in the maxim: What's worth doing is worth doing we'll" Thepe runs through this grand story pathos peculiarly touching and sweet. It speaks the universal language of the heart. It is more than a play-it Is a moral classic. It argues for two of the greatest themes that can engage the mind-human liberty and the i'm mortality of the soul. Nothwithstand- ing the frequent production of this play. it is never produced in the sumptuous manner by other companies as it is in Stetson's. It is like meet ing an old friend after a years absence. In his theatrical offering.

SENATOR GEORGE A. DAY
HI viii be Supported by the
People on the Tract.

There is no reason why Senator
George A. Day, Republican
candidate for state senator from
this county, should not receive
the vote of every Republican or
the Twin Falls tract. 1t is being
urged that because Senator Day
is a member of the Mormon
church he would oppose the crea
ton of a gentle county. This is
idle talk and grossly unfair tic
the senator. The citizens of the
east end of the county are strong
" in favor of county division.
They realize that two years
hence they will be in the minor
ity and furthermore they are
sincere in their desire to favor
the people of Twin Falls. Since
the tract was first settled they
have shown a friendly d1sposi-
ton toward the west end and
many times have they gone out
Of their way to accommodate us.
They cannot be blamed for hesi-
tating to spend county money
on roads and bridges because
they have always looked for
ward to county division and it
is natural that they should leave
that work for the new county.
In every respect they have been
absolutely fair and upright in
dealing with their new western
ne1ghbors. Senator Day has
lived in this county many years.
He has twice represented the
county i'll the state legislature
and proved himself a tireless,
conscientious and effective work
er. Mr.. Day has always stood
for county division and he is cap
able of welding more influence
to that end than any candidate
who could have been selected.
He is man OF integrity and
ability and his religious belief
should not initiate against him.
The true Republicans of Twin
Falls will not be SO narrow
minded as to oppose him because
of his creed. The entire county
ticket is clean and Republicans
should vote it from top to bot
tom.-Twin Falls News.

must be no glaring contrasts in
colors, that complexion, hair and
hat must harmonic; so she had
exhausted her art until the rapt
youth by her side had become
color blind. That is only rain
bows were swinging before his
eyes, and when he timidly took
her arm to help her from the
street to the curb of the side
walk. his face said plainly
enough: "The chances are a

seven minutes great white wings
will spring from her shoulders
and she will disappear in the

sclous consciousness, the pose OF
her head; the determined step;
the semi-careless air; the deter
mination not to be outshone, the
roses that came and melted on
her checks continually; the re-
strained look as though, if she
was prettier than any one of the
dragged out city girls, she must
not try to show it; the know
ledge of the new dignity that
should attach to wifehood, and
then every few minutes tIfe
thought that she and the radi-
ent and rapt temporary idiot by
her side must not give away the
fact that their souls were on roll

hear was the chanting of the

that ever one who saw them
knew at glance what the mat
ter was and rejoiced with them.
On the corner they absent mind
edly ran into a baby carriage.
Both blushed and the young
man did not speak tor half a
block. And when they started
for home they cuddled close to
each other in the car and whis-
pered to each other: "Did we
not fool them good? Not soul
guessed the truth" Then they
