We think Mr.. Hapgood must be
playing to the galleries again His
letter may "take" with some people,
particularly with those who like to
see the same old thing done in the
same old way; but we doubt if it is
taken very seriously in this vicinity
where the gentleman is we'll known.
If he "frmly believes that the auto
has no common law rights to the
highway, he takes a peculiar way
of showing it by occasionally riding
about in one. We should think he
would raise his hands in horror when
asked to ride in the awful things.
The season has been open for sew
eral weeks now, and automobiles
have been passing up and down the
roads every day; but we have yet to
hear of any accident in this vicinity
due to these ''terrifying machines. :"
Wat excuse is there for a cam
paign against them?

Shakespeare sarcastically asked
"What is in name ?" Business
men are. inclined to believe there is
much. Business concerns, for sew
eral generations after the founders
of the business have passed away Oft
en- keep the name of the original firm
which built reputation for square
dealing or for the excellence of it's
manufactures. Farmers are realiz-
ing that it is an advantage to have
a name for their places, and the GUS
tom is growing yearly. But will
the names hold out so there may be
only one Breezy Hill' OF "Mount-
ain View" in county Probably
it will not be many years before a
law will be demanded making it
necessary to get license for the
sole right in that county to GER
tain name for place. Not a bad
idea either.
We are in receipt of the following
copy of letter;
Hon. Joseph Battell,
Middlebury, VT
My Dear Sir:-The longer [ live
the more convinced | am of the
soundness of the position you have
taken in regard to the automobile
With the ordinary horse, the ordi-
nary driver, upon the ordinary coun-
try road, there is no assurance of
safety,-and never will be, so long
as the automobiles are at large.
[ firmly believe that the auto has
no common law rights to the high
way, any more than a railway steam
engine would have. The town au-
thorities have right, as I under
stand, to exclude Objectionable
horses even, for whose use the high
ways were made; much more have
they the right to exclude these ter
rifying machines for whose use not
a rod of our highways was ever
made.
believe, if carried up, the Su-
preme Court, left unbiased, would
uphold the selectmen Of any town
in closing their highways to the use
of what they deemed Objectionable
self propelling machines.
At any rate there is, and can be,
no reason why it should not be ar
ranged so that certain roads can be
closed with the approval of the
state or county road commissioner.
A campaign upon this basis
should be begun, begun early, and
begun with vim.
Although I am well aware that
the auto people have the "under
hold" so far as infuerce with the
would be powers is concerned, yet
she common people, if they will be
alive to their advantages, can ar
range this matter about to their lik-
ing.

DIR. HARRNGTON'S ADDRESS

On Sunday morning at II o'clock,
DR.. w. L. Harrington occupied the
pulpit at The Baptist Church and
spoke on the education of the boy.
Speaking broadly, and including
both sexes, he delivered a SCHOLARLY
address that held the attention of
the audience to the last word. His
theme was taken from Platos Re-
public-''In the bowels of the earth
where the Gods make men," applied
to society there are gold boys and
silver boys and clay boys. He said
in part, by society do not mean
those giddy-gady people who aspire

ARMORY HALL, OCT. Sth.
"Eclkhardts IDEALS" the Old Favor
ties to Return for One-night
Engagement.

Oliver J. Eckhardt's excellent COM
pany, "Eckhardt's IDEALS" are again
| to; visit Blackfoot, but for one night
only, Tuesday, October Sth, present
ing Lillian Mortimer's greatest sue
cess, IA Mans Broken Promise. !"
The company IS well known to the
public, and will no doubt receive
their usual hearty welcome. The
company has been reported to be
larger and stronger than ever. High
class vaudeville will be introduced
between the acts, including new IL
Illustrated songs and moving pictures.
Following is newspaper criticism
which speaks very highly of "A
Mans Broken Promise:"
The Eckhardt Ideals presented "a
Mans Broken erS; ;.whcin. .aordaad
Mans Broken Promise" at the opera
house last night to full house. The
people who attended the first night
were all boosting for the show as the
people in the company are the best
ever seen here.
"a Mans Broken Promise is one
in which the best that is in the actor
may be brought out. 1t affords each
any every one the opportunity of dis
playing their ability to interpret the
authors thoughts. Mr.. Eckhardt
seem sto have thoroughly understood
not only the play, but the people,
when he made his selections. He has
a company which will rank with the
best on the circuit, and we predict
that before the end of the season, the
"Eckhardt Ideals" will have made
more friends throughout the country
than many of the companies that are
travelling on the reputation of days
gone by.
Walter Reynolds as Ned" the
cripple, won the hearts of all in his
readings. Mr.. Reynolds was "A Col
lege Man" the first evening and the
two characters, while not alike, prove
that he can get the full contents out
of his parts The ladies of the COM
pany are all fine. In fact, the entire
company deserves more than passing
notice, but the welcome they receive
when they appear on the stage speaks
more for them than anything elese.

Must Have Been Murdered.

Saturday the remains Of man
were discovered in shack west of
The Mission, about six miles below
Blackfoot, on the east side of the
track. Investigation showed that the
body had been there for some time,
and it is thot that the man was at
Blackfoot during the fair A steel
bar left in the shack was evidently
used to kill the man by striking him
on the head. Papers found on him
indicated that his name was j. f.
Smith, but there is nothing certain
about this yet. A coroner's inquest
was held by Judge ]. c. Fisher on
Sunday morning. In one pocket was
found tax receipt issued at Wells,
Nevada, and he had some mining To-
cation notices in his clothes.

FORTY HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS
AMONG THE PRINTING PRESS
ES.
Learning How the Thing is Done.
Are Doing the Editorial Work
Themselves Now, and are Making
Ii Pay.

Last Friday afternoon DR.. Harring-
ton brot a class of forty pupils in
from the High School to spend an
hour in The Republican Office study
ing the newspaper business. They
came by invitation at O'Clock, and
won our esteem by coming in on time,
a thing that is not always observed
by our business men when a meeting
is set for certain hour. Our Office
is pretty well filled with desks tables
and machinery, and when we got the
young folks slowed away in the aisles
and corners we had a full house.
While Mr. Collins, the Linotype ex-
pert, showed some of them about the
new machine, other members of the
Republican force showed them about
the details of gathering and classify
ing news, keeping track of substrip-
tions, renewals, addresses etc, and
another> one explained the mode of
operating the mailing machine, the
folder and the cylinder press The
outfit received it's share
OF attention, and they all manifested
the keenest interest in every process.
Each one was given a souvenir metal
slug that had the letters of his or her
name cast on one edge of It, and they
were Informed that If each of them
would write little story of their
visit, the one writing the best article
would receive The Republican free
'or year, and the second best should
have 1t for half year.
When their hour had expired, each
ook leave OF the editor and expressed
appreciation Of favors, just as nicely
rs If they were leaving a reception
1t some private house, and we know
hey had received some good training
1t home or at school or both. They
said they had enjoyed their visit, and

country, we have an hour for them

We can not tell you so much about
the party, but we want to say that
the guest of honor Is one of the
worthy girls who has grown up here.
and each inhabitant of the place is
indebted to her for favors freely be-
slowed in some form, especially. in
responding to requests to furnish
music for entertainments or funerals
or conventions and the hundred other
matters that young ladies who are
qualified and willing are called upon
to do.

HALEY Roy WINS.
Emil Snider, Freshman of the
HALEY High School, Wins the
Republican Map Prize.

Again the HALEY High School has
reason to rejoice One of their num-
Der has made the best map of the
ten eastern counties OF Idaho, in a
contest that was open to the stu
dents of all public schools and aca-
denies of eastern Idaho. Care was
taken to bring the matter to the at
tention of all the schools, and the
honor falls to Emil Snider, one of
thespupils under Prof. A. E. Melton,
formerly, of the Blackfoot school.
Mr.. Melton assures us that it is en-
tirely the boys own work, and our
readers will agree that it Is good
when we print the map. 1t will be
released to all the members of the
Press Club for November 22nd, and
we shall not use it until that day.
The prize is twd years subscrip-
ton to The Idaho Republican, and
the matter required in the map is
county lines, railroads, telephone
lines and exchanges, principal towns,

souvenir, gave to each pupil, his or
her name set up in type.
Our attention was now called to
the massive cylinder press; some
papers were printed in order that we
might have the benefit of seeing the
machinery at work. Mr.. Trego ex-
planned the process to us, dwelling
especially on that part by means of
which the ink is evenly distributed.
After this he showed us how the
pictures in his paper are made.
Having seen the most important
things, the members of the party
dispersed themselves about the
room-some watching a young man
print cards lthese were the sopho-
more girls) six others (freshmen)
went to see some type-lice, which,
by the way, are curious little fell
lows. Did YOU ever see any?
Mr.. Trego made a little speech
presented each with copy of the
Idaho Republican-just from the
press. Our time was up and we took
leave; we had had a good time, and
we felt that our time had been we'll
spent.

Superintendent Harrington entered
the room and announced that Mr..
Byrd Trego had kindly invited us to
visit his Office and take look at his
new type-setter, which he recently
installed, at no little cost. Now this
prospect was some brighter than that
of a sewing lesson.
Mr.. Trego met us at the door with
beaming face, and shook hands
with us all very cordially-or. at
least, as near all as possible, for
there are good many students in
the Blackfoot High School.

method of taking news items, taking
notes, entering names upon the sub
scription list, writing up material,
proof-reading, etc.
Next we were shown. by a young
man, how the papers are mailed.
Then we came to the type-setter,
which is such complicated mass of
machinery, that it would require
someone intimately acquainted with
all of it's parts. to describe it. The
man operating the type-setter show
