Uncle Sam owns about two thirds
of the mules in the lane which are
used in army work. As the mule
does not reproduce its kind, the
supply is restricted, hence the con-
tinued and growing demand.

westward wends its way, so sure will
the west produce mules. They are
needed in farming, mining, railroad
ing, packing and other work in
which they are unrivaled. No sec-

to the meeting house in sleds about
II o'clock, where everything was
arranged to make them comfortable.
A short program was rendered after
which big dinner was seryed..
Among those from other parts Of
the. valley who were present were
the presidency of the stake and their
wives. Jas. Pugmire, who has been
confined to his room with rheuma-
tlsm for long time, was also
present.
After dinner, which was said 10
be the best ever served at gather
ing in St. Charles, an interesting
program was rendered. At G p. m.
supper was served, after which
games and dancing was indulged
until all were satisfied.
Three of the pioneers of 1s4;
were present and seemed almost al
young as they used to be. On ac.
count of their infirmities a numbe
of the aged were unable to be pres
ent, but they were all remembered
by having their dinner sent to them
All the old folks were remember
ed with appropriate gifts, whicl
gladdened their hearts and will lont
be priced by each one.
Great praise is due the committe
that had the affair in charge, as /
was pronounced the best old folks
party ever held in ST. Charles.

Death Of Sarah Mckenzie.

A particularly sad death occurred
at Bennington Monday morning,
Feb. Sd, being that of Sarah A.
Mckenzie. The deceased was a
native of Michigan, where all of
her relatives reside. She came here
last August and obtained the posi-
ton of principal of the Bennington
school, making her home with Mr..
and Mrs. J. G. Merrill.
She was an excellent teacher, de-
voting her entire time to her school
work and won the love of all her
pupils, who deeply mourn her death
On January II she complained ol
haylng cold and for a week suf
fered with the grippe, which term
mated in nervous prostration. Al
though given good medical attention
and care, her vitality gradually
ebbed away and Monday morning
her spirit took it's flight to its maker

deceased, arrived Sunday evening

receive $l2 per month; So years, $15
per month; 70 years, $40 per month.
A bill providing for an increase
of pension from SO to $l2 per month
to widows of soldiers and sailors of
the civil war has been reported to
the house by the committee on In
valid Pensions. The only limita-
tions are that the pensioners must
be widows of soldiers or sailors who
served 90 days or more in the civil
war and were honorably discharged
therefrom. The bill also provides
that the widow shall be paid 80 per
month for each child under l8 years
OF age.
Senator Hey burns bill, granting
leave of absence to settlers on
reclamation projects, passed the
senate last week. The bill provides
that those who have made substan-
tial improvements on their claims
as evidence of their intention of
making it their home are to be ex
cused from residing on the land un.
til water is available for irrigation
purposes. The homestead laws re-
qurlng actual residence was enact.
ed before the irrigated lands of the
west were occupied and before the
reclamation projects were ever
thought of and the hardships of
earning living on ard farms were
not taken into consideration. The
bill, if 1t passes the house, will bring
relief to many settlers on the Mini
doka project who have been waiting
patiently for two years for the gov
ernment to fulfill its part of the
contract by providing water for ir-
rlgation. Most of these settlers
have spent all their savings in their
efforts to obtain homesteads and as
it will be two or three years more
before water is available, to require
them to remain on the land that
much longer under penalty of losing
it, would certainly be nhuman.
The bill will likely pass The house,
although there is some opposition
to it in that body.

should materialize it is safe to say
that he will not be allied with the
present governor now or at any
time in the future. An out and>out
Gooding candidate for governor
could not be elected.
Regarding the nomination for
governor a recent dispatch from
Lewiston saws:
t'The feeling is strong here that a
northern man should be selected.
G. w. Thompson has many friends
here who would be glad to see him
make the race, but he declares that
he will not be candidate for any
office.
eff the governorship is given to
north Idaho 1T is probable that south
Idaho will select the congressional
candidate. Burton L. French is ex-
pected to line up with south Idaho
gubernatorial candidate, but north
ern politicians predict that French
has the fight of his life ahead of
him.
$50 far as Shoshone county is
concerned, just one name has been
mentioned in connection with the
nomination for governor and that is
the name of B. F. O'Neill. How
ever, Mr.. O'Neill has not committed
himself on the question.

Bank Cashier Arrested.

Horace E. Neal, former cashier
of the Capital State Bank of Boise,
was arrested last Friday night on the
charge of forgery. The specific
charge upon which he was arrested
was the alleged forgery of the name
of J. L. Sewell to promissory note
for the sum of $500, which note
was discounted by the Chase Nation
al bank of New York City. 1t is
claimed by the receiver of the bank
that he has in his possession of other
notes upon which alleged forgeries
were made that will foot up to over
$40, 900. The warrant of arrest
was served upon Mr.. Neal while i'll
in bed at his home. Monday Mr..
Neal waived examination and was
bound over to the district court, his
bond being fixed at $40, 900, which
was furnished. Tuesday his condI.
tion became so much worse that he
was removed to st. Luke's hospital.

Judge Steele has very promptly

The Mule.

Following is an extract from an
article on ''The Mule as read by
j. w. Craven II the Farmers IDsti
tute held in Twin Falls last week:
'In no department Of livestock or
agriculture has there been of late
such an upheaval In prices, such
lack of supply or such growing de-
mand as IN the mule market. In |
former years the mule was esteemed
largely because II was useful in cul-
tivatlng the cotton fields, the sugar
cane plantations and IN farming gen
orally. The mule was also exten-
sively used in railway construction.
Today il has grown in importance
until now 1t Is uniformed and mus
tered into the service of Uncle Sam
an1 also in the armies of the world
Hence the demand for mules from
almost every nation on earth. The
American mule is the best on earth.
On that point there can be no differ
ence of opinion. America has no
successful rival in mule breeding.
Our fertile soil which produces the
best of forage, sustains the mule at
It's best Good feed is essential TO
the building of bone and muscle,
style and finish and the general con-
formation of the mule. No country
equals America for stock growing.
1.-The mule was first found in
America IN the year of 1887 in Con-
necticut when mules were shipped
from the United States to India
where they were valued for their
endurance and their ability to stand
the tropical climate. History tells
us that the king of SPAN presented
George Washington with very fine
Spanish jack and this jack sired the
first mules bred in America. This
led to mule breeding in the south
where 1t was quickly discovered that
mules stood farm work better than
horses. To President WashIngton's
, Spanish jack may be traced the
, American mule Of today. Since the
: colonial days the breeders in the
southern states have imported the
very best jacks obtalnable in Europe
t The strains have been carefully bred
up until today America leads the
world in mules.

n any other kind of stock. They dc

MONEY.
Large Deposit Of Coin Of the
Realm Sent To DanviIIe To
Defray Expenses.
BIG THING FOR DANvIlLE.

The Danville, Scottsville and Co.
lumbia railroad is certainty. During
past months there seems to have ex-
listed some doubt about the building of
a railroad from Danville to Scots
vile, but that doubt has been dispelled
among the people of this city who are
on the inside of what is actually trans
piring, Max Levy, the noted Cincin-
natl attorney, representing syndicate
of Eastern capitalist, this week sent to
Mr.. M. ]. Farris large sum of money
to be deposited here and to be used in
purchasing the rest of the right-of-way
and defraying the regular expenses.
Mr.. Farris says there is no doubt
about the road being built, and that
the slight delay was caused by the mon
ey scare which has now entirely disap-
peared from among the moneyed men
of the east. They are now willing to
turn their coin loose and the road will
be built as soon as things are gotten
into proper condition. President J. F.
Allen and his private secretary are now
in Danville and Chief Engineer Sullivan
was a guest at the head Offices yester-
day. A number of expert engineers
are working under Mr.. Sullivan. Mr..
Levy telephoned Mr.. Farris last night
that he would be in Danville within the
course of few days for the purpose of
futher perfecting matters relative to
the building of the road. He assured
Mr.. Farris that the road would now be
built and that all the money nee
was easily to be had Danville
