The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1907-11-29

Paris Post-The meeting of the
Club at Blackfoot last Sunday and
Monday was one of the best If not
THE best, which has been held by
the Pencil Pushers." The attendance
was large and the members enthus-
'iastic The arrangements were COM
plete in every detail. Mr.. and Mrs
Trego are surely adopts at planning
and arranging for good time. From
the time that the members arrived
in Blackfoot. until the time of leav-
ing, not moment was lost, and with
the exception of the .time taken up
with the business meetings the whole
time was one solid round of pleasure
and socialibilty, DR.. and Mrs. Hoover
proved themselves to be the most
charming entertainers. The Club was
shown through the Asylum and
grounds, and to say that the Idaho
Insane Asylum in first class condi-
ton but very poorly illustrates its
true condition.
We also visited the Blackfoot Su-
gar Factory and were much interest
ed in this mammoth institution. 1t is
marvel of industry and blessing
to the people and we only wish that
we had such an institution in Bear
Lake County.
The citizens Of Blackfoot are a
kind and hospitable people and they
have city with great future before
1t. Byrd Trego and his estimble and
accomplished wife deserve he hearty
thanks Of every member of the club
and every citizen Of Blackfoot for the
very successful meeting and enter
tainment of the Press Club at Its
meet.
Editor Jones of The Rigby Star in
a personal letter says:
Friend Trego.
take this occasion to compliment
you on the good work you done in
connection with the issuance Of the
Press Club supplement. 1t was GER
tainly all that could have been desir-
ed and was more than we should have
expected for the money. For myself
1t gave the best satisfaction and re-
ceived many compliments from my
readers as to its production.
That New England dinner of which
the members of the Eastern Idaho
Press club, their wives and invited
uests partook so GENEROUSLY at Black
foot last Sunday evening. was
all that Bro. Trego promised it would
be, and more too. 1t had never be-,
fore been the pleasure of the club to
partake of such feast, and the beau
ty Of 1t was that with two or three
exceptions every one of the good
things to eat were grown in Black
foot or vicinity. 1t was a feast that
will long be remembered by all who
were present.
No wines were served at Press club
banquet in Blackfoot last Sunday and
no intoxicating liquors of any form
will be served at any future banquets
to be given by or in honor of the
club, a resolution to that effect hav-

for their production Of "Monte Girls.

straightforward, spontaneous and
remarkably free from cheap stage
mannerisms which spoil good scenes.
The costuming was in good taste and
the scenic effects excellent. AS one
whose calling gives him the privilege
Of speaking on public and moral
questions, am glad to congratulate
the management. The production is
remarkably free from al objection

vicious plays.

REPAIRS

That the trouble with the heating
plants in the public schools is due en-
tirely to defective methods Of oper-
ating them and that they can easily
be placed in good repair without ex-
pense to the board, was the opinion ex
pressed by H. R. Cook, representative
Of Lewis & Kitchen, manufacturers
Of the plants, who was in the city
yesterday investigating the matter.
In company with Supt. Stewart Mr.
Cook visited all the buildings and he
made careful examination Of the
heaters and the methods used in op.
Grating them. 'sThe janitors have
not given proper attention to the ma
chinery, and consequently it has suf-

WILL KEEP HANDS OFF.
Retail Merchants Won't Interfere in
Telephone Strike.

At a meeting of the Retail Merchants
association held on Thursday evening the
merchants decided to keep their hands off
the controversy between the. striking cleo
trical workers and the Rocky Mountain
Bell Telephone company. Some time ago
the lnemen appealed to the merchants to
take out the Bell telephones. to aid in
forcing the telephone company to grant
their demands. Since that time the mat
ter has been hanging fire but it received
it's quietus at the meeting referred to.
Closely following the attempt to get the
merchants to pull out their Bell phones
an effort was made to get them to in
tercede on behalf of the men to bring
about an adjustment of the trouble Now
that the merchants have decided to keep
their hands off. however, there will likely
be no further action with regard to this
effort. For some time the men strike
have been passing out hand bills con-
tanning the names of firms that either had
the Bell phone taken out or who did not
use il at all. and calling upon the union
men and their friends to give them their
trace. 1t is understood. however that the
retail merchants, according to their deciS-
ion on Thursday evening. have decided to
remain firm with regard to the matter
and one and all refuse to be made party
to the movement to remove the phones
from their places of business, which, they
hold. would severely damage their trade.
At the same time the business people do
not care to have their position in the mat
ter misunderstood. They assert that they
are favorable to settlement of the ex-
listing trouble. but feel that it is some
thing in which they cannot afford to mix

new arrangement takes effect.
1t is also reported that E. N. BOtsfOrd.
at present assistant superintendent for the
Oregon Short Line in this city, has been
named as assistant to Mr.. Whitney, which
is taken to mean that virtually all of the

tanned. In addition to this Mr.. Whitney
will establish a large force here This Is
Indicated by the fact that preparations
are now under way to give the Union Pa

The signal department which formerly
occupied several of the rooms which will

commissary building yesterday. where it
will remain until the new building south
of the depot grounds is completed.
It is difficult at this time to figure out
path of the new order of things. 1t is
certain, however, that the force of EN-
ployes in ogden will be enlarged and that
Ogden will grow in Importance as a rail-
road center. In view of the statement
made by General Superintendent w. l..
