STATE FISH HATCHERY.
Governor and Game Warden Hunt.
ing for a Site.

Governor Gooding was in town this
week, after visit to Fremont county
in the interest of the proposed state fish
hatchery. At the great springs at the
head of the North fork of the Snake
river, there is what he considers a good
site for hatchery and state park. 1t
is still government land, but the state
could easily secure title. 1t is espec-
tally desir able in that the upper Snake
contains myriads of fish which go to the
headwaters of the river to spawn, and
the eggs could easily be secured in guam
titles. The governor and state game
warden are the commission to locate
the hatchery. They have heretofore
visited Indian Creek, in Blaine county,
and Clear Greek, in Idaho county, as
possible sites for the hatchery.
The governor favors the acquisition
of large tract of land like that in Fre-
mont county, with view to eventually
a great state park, where
buffalo, deer, elk and other noble game
may be preserved, and where game
birds like pheasants and quail can be
propagated along with the fish.

recommended and will doubtless prove
herself a valuable teacher.
Miss Orena Crabtree has charge of
the Fifth grade She was educated in
the public schools of Carthage, Mo-,
and has held her present position for
the past four years, which is sufficient
recommendation of her ability.
Miss Eva Barstow is in charge of the
second primary. Miss Barstow is a
graduate of the Haley high school and
of the Lewiston State Normal This is
her first experience since graduation,
but her sch, a record fully justifies the
confidence placed in her by the board.
Miss Blanche Gwin, of Shoshone, has
charge of the primary work in the
north side building Miss Gwin is a
Shoshone girl who has the entire con-
fidence of the patrons of the district.
The first primary room in the south
side building is presided over by Miss
Karoline F. Fuld Miss Fuld is also a
graduate of the Haley high school and
the Lewiston State Normal, which fact
establishes her standing in the COM
munity as teacher who is we'll pre-
pared for her work.
Altogether the faculty of the Sho-
shone schools is one of which the city
has reason to expect much during the
coming year.

Another Bonanza
Brilliant Prospects for a
Boom TOWnSite at
GoOding.

Things are moving here in Lincoln
county as rapidly as the film of a NOV
ing picture machine, and each turn OF
the wheel brings to view some new ano
good thing for Idaho and Lincoln
county.
Just last week the Idaho Irrigation
company announced the opening OF
70, 900 acres of their lands in the neigh
borhood of Gooding to be held Septem-
ber 24th. Now it is announced that
the Gooding townsite will be opened on
the same date with Messrs. Lisle &
Barber, of the Shoshone journal, as
chief boosters and sales agents.
The new townsite will be laid out on
the ranch of Governor Gooding, on the
south side of the track where the Good
ing station is now located. A substan-
tial school building is already on the
grounds and a number of residences,
besides a business house or two. Ar
rangements have been made to open a
bank and a large hotel in the near fu-
ture, and the outlook for the new town
is exceedingly bright. 1t will be plat
ted on or. und already set to alfalfa, so
there will be no sage brush to grub. 1t
is at present surrounded by some 5000
to 10, ,000'acres of very fine farms, with
groves of trees, orchards and all the
comforts of well settled community.
Recently the county commissioners
have at considerable expense opened a
fine wagon road to Soldier and allof the
rich Camas prairie country will be trib-
utary to the new town. A daily stage
line has been running there since along
last winter The lands of the Big Wood
river people entirely surround the town
and just to the south lies large tract
of land belonging to the land of the
North Side Twin Falls people which
will be opened for entry Oct. l. The
Twin Falls company is under contract
with the state to build the electric line
from Miner to Gooding, and this work
is being prosecuted as rapidly as possi-
BILE.
Gooding is 16 miles west of Shoshone
and is half way between Pocatello and
Boise. With all of its natural advan-
tages properly used it will soon become
one of the leading cities of the state.
Contracts have already been made
with eastern parties to erect beet
sugar factory at Gooding in the near
future

TOO MUCH BUSINESS.

1t is with pride that the Journal
points to its list of advertisers and to
the increased amount of business COM

issued the past three weeks in order to
get in all the news as we'll as the ads.
This week it concluded to run without
the extra pages, but before going to
press it was compelled to turn down an
advertiser who wanted larger space
than could be given. A supply of pa
per has been ordered and the necessary
material to run an all-home print paper,
which will be given to its customers as
soon as the material arrives. From a

A HOME OF THEIR OWN.
Well Known Young People Join
Hands at the Altar.

One of the pretty social events of the
year was the wedding Thursday night
at eight o'clock, of Miss Edith Eliza
beth Bowler and William D. Forbes,
both of Shoshone. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. Howard Bowler,
brother of the bride, at the Bowler
home here in town. Only the relatives
of the contracting parties were present,
it being a family wedding.
Mr.. Forbes has lived in Shoshone for
the past seven years coming here from
Canada. He has been in the employ of
R. ]. Mcmahon most of that time and
is young man of excellent worth.
The bride has lived here from girlhood,
and is known as musical and social
leader of rare ability. Both the young
folks have hosts of friends in and near
Shoshone. They will live i'm the Forbes
home, in the north part of town.

THEY TALK OF LITTLE ELSE.
Home Hunters AnxiOusIy Waiting
for the GOOding Opening.

Nothing short of a pestilence or a
great catastrophe that blotted that
section of Idaho off the map, or stopped
all communication with the outside
world, could ever prevent the land
opening of the Idaho Irrigation Com
pany at Gooding, September "a, from
being conspicuous success. Every
thing is right. The land is right, the
water is right, the climate is right, and
the location can't be beat anywhere in
the United States. The town is on a
main transcontinental line, the land is
on both sides and directly tributary to
it, and there is not a single element
lacking to make it success.
The company is making every effort
to meet the demand for homes by hav-
ing the land marked off with monu-
ments and stakes, which will show the
home-hunters just where the lines are.
1t will be easy for the prospective
settler to know Just what he is getting
and to be certain that the land he
wants will not be eventually claimed
by another through a confusion of
lines.
Literature, literally by the ton, has
been put out by the company, and
hustlers have been sent out to circulate
the good news where the land-hungry
public can get hold of it. From the
Mississippi to the Pacific, the Septem
ber opening is becoming household
word, and there will be crowds of
people here to take advantage of ''the
land with the perfect water right, as
the company publications have aptly
put it.
The construction work on the big
canal is going on steadily and rapidly,
under the supervision of the Slick
Brothers, contractors. There are no
greater hustlers in the west than these
men, and they are known as the most
daring builders in their line of work to
be found anywhere. When there is
any particularly hard or dangerous
work of this kind to be done, Slick
Brothers name is always brought up
as one of the best firms. The work on
the Idaho Irrigation company project
has not been peculiarly difficult and
not at all dangerous, though the con-
struction of the great reservoir dam,
nearly $50 feet from foundation to top,
and costing almost million dollars, is
somewhat of an undertaking.
Water is to be brought on to the
Alberta tract this fall or winter. Quite
an acreage is now being plowed near
Alberta, to get ready for crops. The
town is growing steadily. The bank
will open for business about the first of
October, the company will have its
elegant two-story brick hotel ready for
occupancy this winter, the brick bank
building will be ready for use not much
later, and altogether there is an air of
that promises great things. !

DR.. Southwell a we'll established

friday to stop a few days. Dr. South
well is well known to Shoshone people
as he has been here number of times

give him call at the McFall house
without delay, as his stay will be

wishes of everybody in Shoshone. They
go to a much larger church, with a
strong membership, but do so with re-
grets at leaving Shoshone where they
say they have been so royalty received.
County Superintendent Mrs Burnside
returned Saturday from Pocatello,
where she was engaged with the joint
teachers normal held there last week.
The attendance was about 300 of the
teachers from the seven southeastern
Idaho counties that joined for one big
normal instead of holding smaller ones
in each county. 1t is reported as the
most successful educational meeting
ever held in the state, and so well was
the idea received by the teachers that
it will become a permanent feature of
Idaho educational work. Mrs. Burnside
says that it was particularly pleasing
from the Lincoln county point of view,
as it brought out every teacher who
will have school in this county this
year-the first time in the history of
the county where every teacher so at
tended. There is a shortage of teachers
over the state, so serious that the state
has ordered special
examination for candidates, to be held
the first week in October, to give a
chance to fill the teaching ranks at
once without waiting for the next
regular examination. Mrs. Burnside
viii issue her official notice next week.
