the president and his wife at dinner at
the White House the tongue of gossip
started wagging over the possibility of
a Republican ticket being made up

Governor Fort has been hailed as a
reformer Of conservative type In
his inaugural addrsiss he advocated the
passage by the New Jersey Legislature
Of a public utilities law s'that will meet
all the demands of the most advanced
thought upon governmental regulation
of public utility corporations" In dis
cussing the subject he said: 1.-The time
has come for the strict supervision of
these great corporations and the llmita-

under some proper public official. It
will make for conservatism and
strengthen the companies doing legit-
innate business and eliminate those

Governor Fort belongs to family
which claims as its ancestors some OF
the earlier settlers of New Jersey. 1t

Pierce to Build to
HorshOe Bend
Information Given Out That Boise
and Interurban VIII Reach Coal
Fields in Near Future.

That the Boise and Interurban electric
railway, of which W. F Pierce Of Boise
is the principal owner, will build their
road from Eagle to Horseshoe Bend is
now the main topic of conversation be-
tween property owners and interested
parties in that part Of the state. Al
though the statement is not given out
by authority, it is considered an ALSO
lutte fact, and men who are taking this
expected movement into consideration
in .he iurthering OF their interests. The
Boise and Interurban has large pile OF
poles at Star, which. it is said are to be
used for that extension.
The Horseshoe Bend country is rich
with coal deposits, and although no
great excitement has been caused by the
discovery, experts who have thoroughly
Investigated the field, express great con-
iidence in it as producer. That the
coal is useful for commercial purposes
has been demonstrated by the fact that
it is being used just as il comes from the
deposits, for operating the steam hoists
for the gold mines in that district and
also for their blacksmithing purposes.
The coal is OF a bituminous nature
and contains no sulphur, and in many
respects resembles the coal OF Colorado
Unless the deposits "pinch out" at a
short distance beneath the surface there
is ample coal to warrant the building ol
road TO tap the field, as the surface
showings alone cover from three to four
hundred acres. Among those interested
in the developing oil the region are d.

County Division

A well organized and well financed
scheme is en- foot to divide Canyon
county into three parts, making Pay
ette county out of the north end, Nam
pa county out of the south end, and
leaving Boise valley for Canyon county.
The movement has been financed from
Nampa and Payette, and it is said that
three of Canyons four representatives
are pledged to put the measure through
the legislature. If this be true, the di-
vision viii probably result. County To-
cal option is responsible for portion of
this movement, and pure cussedness for
the rest. Naturally, the Herald is op-
posed to this damphoolishness. 1t is
the poorest kind of business anyway you
look at it, Still, the Herald is not GO
ing to break its back trying to convince
a set OF men with whom it has no infiu.
ence that they ought to exhibit little
business sense, when the good Lord did
not endow them with any. In
a spasm of e-ticket-straight'
idiocy the republicans put into the hands
of Nampa and Payette the power to di.
