JUDGE BEATTY
READY TO QUIT
Will Spend a Year or Two
Travelling Through
Europe

BOISE, Idaho, March 25.-Judge
Beatty. of the federal court, announces
that since the report of his successor
being appointed has come it will prob
ably mean that he will be able to re-
tire from the bench at the end of the
term here in Boise-possibly even be-
fore the close of the term.
He had handed in his resignation to
take effect the first of March, but on
the urgent solicitation OF the depart
ment of justice at Washington he con-
scented to stay a while longer, at least
until successor could be appointed.
The Pocatello term Of court is set for
the second Monday in April, on the
sth. 1t would in no case retain him
on the bench more than two weeks,
should he be asked to preside up to
the close Of the present term here in
Boise.
DIETRICH Preparing for Bench.
Judge Dietrich could qualify at once,
upon receiving his papers, and Judge
Beatty would be well pleased to be
released; but since the end of the term
is so near at hand, there is probability
of the change in the midst of the
term.
Judge Beatty is endeavoring to close
up all the cases he can during his in
cumbency, so as to leave a clean
docket for his successor. A number
of cases had to be postponed, however,
which will have to go over.

PAVEMENT FOR
MAIN STREET
Booster Club to Take Up
Matter as Soon as
Possible

The paving of Main street is to be
one of the first most important i'm
provements to be undertaken by the
booster club, according to President
H. w. Newton.
Nothing can be done in the matter,
of course, until the sewer has been
laid And that cannot be completed
until the state supreme court has
passed upon the validity of warrants
which have been issued and refused
cashing by the banks because of the
cloud that hangs over them.
Validity Legal Complication.
Their validity is a mere legal mat
ter; the proper Interpretation of the
statutes relative to the matter of mu
nicipal Indebtedness. If the form in
which the warrants were issued was
illegal then the work done will be a
total loss to the contractor, Mr.. Clark
of Spokane, and the warrants so far
cashed will be worthless. On the
other hand, If the modus operandi has
been legal, then the work will be push
ed with renewed vigor.
In case the warrants are illegal then
new start will have to be made, but
not, however, until an election can be
advertised, held and the bonds voted.
Pavement Badly Needed.
With the warrant matter settled, in
in which decision every city OF any
size in the state that has prosecuted

TRACKS WILL BE REMOVED
Rather Than Operate Cars On a Three
Cent Fare Basis.

Cleveland, O.-As a result of the
long-standing street railway war in
this city large percentage of the
population may have to walk or seeb
other means of transportation soon.
Some time ago the supreme court
decided that the Cleveland Electric
Railway Co. had no right to the lines
on Central and Quincy avenues, but
pending negotiations for a lease OF
the Cleveland Electric's property by
the new "three-cent fare company"
the old company continued to rnn cars
on these two lines at a straight three.
cent fare. A few days ago all peace
negotiations were called off. The first
move of the Cleveland Electric was tC
stop selling seven tickets for a quar-.
ter, and to-day sensation was caused
by the statement sent to the council
that within eight days the tracks on
the Central and Quincy lines would be
torn up, as the company could not
make money at three-cent fare.
Mayor Johnson is thus placed in
rather a tight hole, as it will be uI
to him to provide transportation for
the thousands who live along these
five miles of tracks.

NO VALID REASONS
PATRoNIzING MAIL ORDER
HOUSES is WITHOUT EXCUSE.
GOODS NOT EVEN CHEAPER
With Freight Charges Added and
Quality Considered the Home
Merchant Does
Best,

copyrighted, 1906, by Alfred c. Clark }
The reasons why people should
trade at home are numerous, but so
far as we are able to learn but one
reason is advanced for purchasing
goods of mail order houses. That one
reason-a saving of money-is often
no reason at all, for in many instances
the express charges or freight and
carriage will bring the cost of an arti-
Gle that as quoted in the price list
seemed a wonderful bargain, almost
or quite up to the price charged by
the local dealer. But even were one
able to save few cents on the pur-
chase price by buying away from
home, it appears to us that the loss
is Infinitely more than the gain, for
he who sends the money which he
earns in the home town out to swell
the Golfers of wealthy dealers in dis
tant cities cannot fail to forfeit in a
considerable degree the respect of
those around him, nor can he under
these conditions preserve his self
respect intact.

louses must have a sneaking feeling

then you are indebted to the home
merchant for many of the advantages
you enjoy The proprietors of a mail
order house would laugh you to scorn
were you to ask them to subscribe to-
ward the building of your new church,
the improvement of your school build
ing, or the expenses CT maintaining
your fire department. The home mer-
chant contributes literally to the sup
port of these institutions so essential
to the public comfort and well-being,
and you cannot afford to withhold
from him your patronage.
You know your local dealers. Per-
haps they have grown from childhood
to manhood in your home town: Won
were boys together, they have watched
by you in sickness, and comforted you
in sorrow, they take kindly interest
in your welfare. Do you not prefer
that your trade should increase their
small profits rather than add it's
quota to the millions of dollars annu-
ally sent to the mail order houses? If
the home merchants prosper the town
will be a better place in which to
live. Their prosperity will be mani
tested by improvements in the appear
ance of their own property, and by
their increased liberality in contribut-
ing toward public improvements, and
by helping them by your patronage,
you will also be helping yourself and
the entire community.
By doing your share toward adver-
tising the interests of the community,
you will make for yourself a place
that heretofore you have never held.
You will be looked up to and respect
ed, and your advice will be sought in
public affairs. Live and let live, and
life will hold for you far more of en-
Joyment and satisfaction than it ever
can If you live with the idea of get
ting all you can out of the town in
which you reside and the people
around you, and. holding fast to what
you get, regardless of your duty to
others. Be loyal to your town, to
your merchants, to the public welfare,
and your home town will be the best
place in the world in which to live.

IN public positions, and when ques-

nature that makes it impossible for
one to really taken an interest in a
