Local Comment

Two weeks have now elapsed since
the owners Of the local gas plant were
reported to have offered to. submit their
books to an examination in behalf Of
the council. The city attorney has pre-
scented to them stipulation for such
an examination to be made at the ex
pense of the gas company and by a
chartered accountant to be selected by
the mayor and city council. AS yet
the gas men have failed to sign. The
council meets next Monday evening to
learn what the gas company intends
to do in the matter. The chances are
that some proposition with string
to it will come from the company and
all councilmen should beware of the
experts. If there is an accounting to
be done 1t should be done by experts
whom the city selects, and who shall
represent the city even If the city
has to pay the fee. If there should
ever be litigation the city could then
get it's own experts at work on the
books at the expense of the gas COM
pany if it loses, and there should be
no question in any mans mind as to
s1.10 gas being reasonable in Mar
SQdllLOWn. Inc COulptly, IlSelI, Ilcto
said that it would be reasonable in
1914.
1.-THE way Marshall county gives
medical aid to it's poor, is an outrage"
declared we'll known Marshalltown
physician, in speaking of the case of
the little Hittenmark child, for whom
it seemed it was impossible to secure
a physician to administer to its wants
when death was drawing near. The
physicians of Marshalltown, for many
years, have not been in sympathy with
the county's method Of caring for the
medical wants of it's poor, and the sub
ject has been often discussed in med
ical society meetings. The doctors are
of the opinion that the question OF
public health, as it affects the poor
should not be question subject to
competitive bidding, and let to any
physician who happens to. bid the low
est. If the county physician can not be
found at time when emergency may
demand the services Of a doctor, the
patient may actually suffer for want
of attention What the doctors, as a
class, would consider more advisable,
would be the employment of any ply
sician. in emergency cases at least. re-

Mass Meeting at Christian
Church Results in Organi-
zation of Mems League
BUILDING is THE FINAL OBJECT
When New Church is Erected It Will
Be as Fine, and in Some Respects
Finer, Than Any Church in the City
IF. Fl. Benedict Heads New Club
Postmaster Smith Vice President.

At mass meeting for men, held at
the Christian church Friday night, a
preliminary movement was launched
for the erection of new church in
this city. The meeting Friday night
was a very enthusiastic one, and the

Vice President-C. H. Smith.
Recording Secretary-F. r. Lentz.
Corresponding Secretary-Ray Welk-
Ier.
Treasurer-M. C. Hurlbut.
Press Reporter-W. L. Smith.
While the new league has as its final
aim assistance toward building a
new church home, its objects are not
confined solely to the one purpose. 1t
will promote seciability within the
church, and attempt to be of general
usefulness in the administration OF
church affairs. Committees were ap-
pointed to formulate a constitution and
bylaws, and to make other arrange
ments in connection with the organi-
cation.
Rev. C. H. Morris, when asked about
the new church today, said that the
plans were not far enough along as yet
to make very definite statement. He
thinks that a new church will be built,
and he says that if it is it will be as
fine as anything in Marshalltown at the
present time, and in some respects he
believes it will greatly excel any pres
ent church structure.

or not the district shall issue $4,000
worth Of building bonds, with which to
build new school house The petition
is being generally signed, and the cleo
ton will doubtless be called.
This and other matters pertaining to
the new building and the site were dis
cussed at the meeting. Where the
building is to be built will probably be
determined by the school board. but ii
is probable that the old building site
will be used.

TERRIBLY HURT BY HORSE.
j. r. Hubbard Has Close Call From
Death North of Town.

]. T. Hubbard, a farmer living three
miles north of the city. had a narrow
escape from death by being kicked with
a horse Mr.. Hubbard owns colt that
is inclined to show traits of bad dis
position at times, and when the animal
insisted on driving all the others away
from the watering trough, Hubbard at
tempted to discipline him. The result
was that the horse kicked out straight
with both feet, striking Hubbard
squarely in the face, across the bridge
of the nose and both cheeks. Forum
ately Hubbard was far enough from
the horses feet. that he did not re-
ceive the full force of the blow. Had
he been very little closer the chances
are he would have been instantly killed.

Game In the Morning.

Next Saturday the knights of the
gridirOn will meet in battle at the ball
park, when the Twin Falls high school
team will play its second game this
season with the Pocatello high school.
From the reports that have come
down the line, the Gate City lads think
they have a cinch and are prepared to
walk all over the PROSTATE frames OF
the boys here. Coach Pierce has a diff
ferent opinion and has been making
special effort since the Albion
game to strengthen the weak spots in
the team work and is pretty confident
that his protegies will play all around
the visitors. The boys have light
team compared with other high
schools, but they have in large de-
gree made up for this lack of weight
by the speed with which they get into
every play This fact together with
the more open plays of this year,
should go a long way toward making
them formidable opponents of any
team in the league. The game will be
called at $3.50 and every rooter in the
city should turn out and give the home
team good support There is nothing
that puts a team on it's mettle like
good backing from the rooters.
The basketball and football teams
are practising very industriously fol
their games with the Pocatello higf
school next Saturday. They expect {
desperate struggle and are preparing
for it with vim. The basketball team
has a reputation to sustain and the
football team is working as hard tt
establish one. The boys are somewha
riled over the fact that Pocatellt
youth was OH the field Monday evening
and procured their signals and mum
ber OF their pet plays before they wer'
aware of his presence.
In the morning the high school girl'
will play basket ball with the girl
from the Pocatello school at the bal
park at ten-thirty. The girls have th'
last years team for the most part, ant
have every intention Of winning from
their rivals by heavy score. Get ou
and cheer for them and also help t.
pay expenses by your two bits.
