that the council take favorable
action on opening street be
tween the properties of the M. e.
Church parsonage on the east and
Gage property on the west, run
ming north and south from Hunter
street to the grave yard alley.
The opening of this street would
provide thirty desirable building
lots, and all will bs dedicated to
the village except the parts of
NJ. K. Church property and Gage
property. This, Colonel Weldy
representing property holders, ask
he council to buy or condemn.
The matter was referred to the
street committee, however, several
councilmen expressing themselves
that they will not favor spending
dollar on opening streets, as the
demand for such has been coming
SO strong that they could not
hope to have sufficient money to
meet them.
Mr.. Louie Kleinsmith was pres
ent and asked that grade be
given him for side walk. 1t was
so ordered.
Mr. J. b Dollison, as Secretary

the public square between the

ready to put in the cement and
fountain, and asked the council to
take immediate steps toward put
ting in sewer and water for
fountain. The extensions were
referred to public property COM
mittee with power to act. Council
objected to the obstructing of the
public square and the conference
resulted in the agreement that
mounds would be at least Z or 8
feet from the trees, to afford
drive way through the street,
around the mounds.

NOT FOR ME.

There is some speculation to the
effect that Governor Gooding aspires
to succeed Hepburn in the United
States Senate in 1909, but we hear
the voice of the voter saying, 'Not
for me-"
If Governor Gooding wants to go
to the Senate from Idaho, he will
simply and Enthusiastically fail in rea-
liking his wishes. The next senator
from Idaho will be nominated in
state convention, and Mr.. Gooding
will not be the man. More than that,
the gentleman found pushing such a
job will also be able TO make ar
rangements to remain in private life
for time Senator Hepburn is the
logical man for the place, but unless
he becomes sufficiently econliled to
nomination by convention, to accent
it that way, he may fail to get the
needed support.

is THE TIMES A NEWSPAPER

Two weeks ago The Idaho Falls
Times raised question as to wheth-
er The Republican was a newspaper.
because Blackfoot man had gone
to Salt Lake and did not come back
the day he was expected, nor for
several days following, and we had
said nothing about 1t.
Last Friday evening an Idaho Falls
lady tried to kill another with gun,
the whole town has been in an up
roar about it, one woman has left the
state to save her life, and the other
is not In jail. The editorial desk of
The Times is within rod Of where
the refugee sat as book-keeper be-
fore she fedfrnHa the state, and yet
The Times comes fo~aNr desk this
WeeK without word of~NsWs about
The thing that is the talk of tho town.
If The Times has a grievanceNor
snap, we do not object to him KEEP
ing still about it, but look at the lp-
consistency of the cuss.

NEWSPAPERS GET IN LINE.

Last week committee represent
ing $4,000 weekly newspapers, ha(
long conference with the third as
sistant post master general at Wash
these $1,000 newspapers will obey
the law In regard to having annual
settlements with their subscribers
The patron of paper may pay in
advance as much as he wishes, but
be In arrears more than a year he
cannot. The newspaper men went
over the matter carefully and finally
decided to yield obedience to the new
law.
Another thing they are getting in
to line on, is in the matter of passes
over railroads If they do printing
or advertising for the railroad COM
pany, they must collect it in money.
II they ride over the road, they must
pay in cash at the same rate that
others pay.
The result is that Is 900 newspap-
ers belonging to the National Edi-
torial Association, are getting very
busy making settlements with delin-
quent friends and neighbors, and
The Republican Is not the only coun-
try sheet that has man at the desk
making out statements and another
on the road hunting up the people
who might want to make settlements
at home
The first of March is the time fix
ed by most of them, to strike from
the mailing list, all who are not paid
up, and many newspaper will find
its subscription list "all shot to
pieces.

PECK WILL INVESTIGATE.

Editor Walter Peck of the South
ern Idaho Mail has concluded there
is something wrong, at The Idaho
asylum, and gives as his reason, the
fact that a number of "the organs
in this part Of the state have pub
lished articles praising the manage
ment of the institution.
Mr.. Peck says this is a pretty good
indication that there Is an Ethiopian
in the woodpile, weak spot to be
bolstered up, and that he will un-
dertake to find 1t.
If he does, of course all the credit
will belong to Editor Peck, and q
good service will have been perform
ed for the state. True it is his turn
to do something, not having turned
trick for couple of years, but
it will take something besides
smudge to get the niger to come
out. Logs have to be rolled, chunks
must be heaved, and courage kept
UP to grab the niger when he pops
out.
While Mr. Peck Is doing this job
who the duce is going to shift the
scenes to screen the nondescript city
council that is making Pocatello the
laughing stock of the country?

Ravenel McBeth " governor. says
the Challis MessenSer. and it adds
that he would make&a different at
mosphere about then state house
from that which now pAevades it.
Mr.. McBeth belongs ITO the silk
hat aristocracy, and would beat the
record riding on special trains and
doing social stunts AS member
of the legislature the past three
terms, he has been noted for criti-
cising other mems work, but not for
original ideas nor any of the build
ing up process. He plays the same
part as did Lee in defending Rich
mond-he always waited for, the 9TH
er side to make move, and then he
fired at the biggest opening he cp6ld
see. That is McBeth, and That is
Democracy.

Last Friday night, at the hour Of
two o'clock some straggler quietly
came up onto the front porch of o

without saying a word. Failing tC

door and gave similar trial, but as
they were both bolted and locked he
failed to gain entrance. Now the
worst part of this lays in the ia It
that Mrs. o. M. and J. w. Hess were
the only ones at home, as their hus-
bands were working in the vicinity

came over these two ladies can better
be imagined than explained Such
"hoodoos' as these deserve a bullet

ously.

kindly furnished by Mr.. and Mrs w.

hands of Mr.. A. A. Bradley built and
