TALK CREAMERY
Matter Brought up at Last
Meeting OF Commercial Club
HAzELW00O MAN PRESENT
Names of Honorary Members
Read-Other Business.

The Commercial Cub held its
regular meeting at the court house
Monday night and considerable
business was transacted. Some
slight amendments were made to
the constitution and bylaws and q
list Of honorary members given
the first reading. They will be
voted on after the expiration Of 30
days.
A Mr.. Blunt, representative Of
the Hazelwood Creamery Co.. q
Spokane institution, appeared be-
fore the club and made talk up
on the object Of his company aud
it's intentions Of coming into this
country and explained the bene-
fits to be derived from having q
market for butter fats. He asked
that the club assist in encourag-
ing the farmers to turn their hantl
to the dairy business and remarked
Of the many advantages to be de-
rived by the farmers as we'll as the
country at large where the dairy.
ing was an industry. He stated
this was an ideal country for dairy
ing and that, his company was
already receiving cream at Sites
and a number OF other towns in
this section.
From his talk we gathered that
in the near future, providing the
business would warrant it, the
company would open q cream cry
here. But it seemed the object for
the present, and probably for some
time was to ship the cream.
An invitation was prepared and
forwarded by the club to the secre-
tary OF the company inviting him
to visit this section and look the
field over and also q resolution
was passed pledging the clubs
hearty support to the company in
the enterprise.

During the past six months there

al fight in the party of this state
and, as was anticipated, the pro-
ceedings were not lacking in in
terest and the meeting was a live
one. There has been a movement,
headed by coterie of attorney s
with headquarters at Boise, to de-
! liver the democratic party of Idaho
over to theMormon church. This
movement gained considerable
headway and no doubt some of it4
supporters were sincere but circum- :
stances confirm the suspicion
that the leaders Of the movement
were not actuated by desire to
benefit the party. Since the con-
vention things have come to light
which confirm the suspicion and
when the scheme is laid bare some
Of it's past supporters will be as.
tonished at the duplicity of the
Mormon church.
Two names were suggested for
temporary chairman, Mckinley of
Twin Falls and Perky Of Boise.
The vote resulted in 1872 for the
Boise attorney and 149 for the
Twin Falls man. Charles E. Clark

porary organization was made
permanent. The credential, resolu.
ton and order of business com,
mittees were selected and the con
vention adjourned to meet at 7:3(

reports of the various committee.
were read after which delegates
and alternates as named above
were elected. The conventior
adopted the following resolution.
by the unanimous vote of the 2lE

HORSEBACK ACCIDENT
TO JARED G. SMITH

Yesterday Jared G.. Smith had an
ugly fall with his horse on the Expert
ment Station reserve, on the slopes of
Tantalus. He has usually ridden the
horse over a given route, but when he
reached the forks of the road coming
down, he tried to turn one way and
the horse another. In the mix-up the
animal fell, carrying Mr.. Smith down
with a thump and leaving him uncon-
scious in the road. He was senseless
for a good while and when he came
to, could not remember what had hap
pened. There were no fractures or
breaks. however, and when evening
came he felt much better and went to
sleep.
