AN OUTSIDERS VIEWPOINT.
Resident Of Neighboring Town of Sho-
shone Gives Boost.

AS tending to show the substantial
nature OF the prosperity attending the
building up OF a county seat town in
the midst of irrigation project the
following items of fellow townsman
may be Of interest. J. P. Rollins re-
turned Monday eve, from FIVE days
visit to the enterprising city of Twin
Falls and In conversation with the
writer gave his impression OF the won
derful transformation going on in that
bustling, thriving city since he first saw
1t only few years ago. The irst that
most impressed him was the number of
buildings in process of construction, the
Official record showing 17S, giving EN-.
ployment to four hundred carpenters
besides an army of other laborers. The
next thing that impressed him most
wildly was the activity of the real es-
tate market. Twenty-four real estate
firms were busily employed in handling
the rush of business by the Turing and
certain prospect of raising values In
both city and farm property. Farm
lands some distance from town were
selling readily from fifty to one hun
dred and fifty dollars per acre. The
streets OF the city were often so crowd
ed with people that his progress was
seriously impeded in passing from street
to street. AS to the future the optim:
ism OF the citizens has not yet reached
the limit and city OF twenty thousand
population is prediction made by
many OF them. But whether their pre-
diction are beyond the probabilities or
not matters little. The bare facts are
sufficient to show to the most casual
observer that most anything is possible

And movin' picture show.

When the wind begins to blow.
But the wind is what will make,
That garden spot hummer,

With water at your command,

and in every way the institution
should induce the largest attendance
at all times.
In consideration of these facts par
ents who contemplate sending their
children to other institutions, whether
in the state or elsewhere, should
pause and consider the beneficial adj
vantages to be gained at home in
stead of listening to allurements from
abroad, no matter how favorable
these in themselves may be.
And besides these considerations
it should be borne in mind that the
schools superintendent is DR.. f. l..

terial progress.

hope that a sharp slump in the

the indications are that such a

will resent having all their labor

naught. The fact is they have
anticipated an effort to boom the
Republican campaign by des-
troying confidence and they are
talking rather freely in opposi-

Trying to Work up a Sc are.
New Orleans States,


that the business men of the
country have no idea uihateyer
of getting scared over the result
of the election, for the reason
that they are convinced that
business will, not tbe disturbed
whether Bryan or Taft be elect
ed and therefore are generally
Indifferent as TO the result of
the national campaign.
A special dispatch from Chi
cago to the indianapolis News
says one of the features of the
campaign is the lack of interest
business men are taking in it.
In spite of the fact that meetings
of manufactures, lumbermen,
the credit mems association and
glass makers have been held in
hotels where the Democrats and
Republicans have their national
headquarters, the representa-.
tives of these commercial organi-
cations did not call at the rooms
of either of the political com
mittees. because business ques.
tions interested them and thew
devoted all their time to dis
cussing such matters. In this
connection the correspondent of
the Indianapolis News says: j,
Certain it is that this cam
paign is having less effect on
business than past campaigns
have had The suggestion has
been made that possibly this
may be caused by the refusal
of business men to get excited
over the campaign. Men who
have looked into this subject say
it is a fine thing for the country
that affairs make progress in
the work of getting business
back to it's normal channels
during a national campaign
year without worrying lest all
they are doing may be upset by
the result of tl1e election. In
looking about for an explanation
for so much apathy some of the
politicians have reached the de.
cision that the attitude of
business men toward the
presidential contest is respon-
sible for it,"
We can all remember that six
weeks before the election in 1896
and again in 1900 things were
very different. Then the bust.
ness men we're greatly aroused
and frightened and they talked
OF little except the outcome of
the election. Today with the
same man running on the Demo
cratic ticket business men from
all sections of the country meet
in the same hotel that shelters
a national political committee
and do not even talk politics
among themselves. This is a
great disappointment to Mr..
Taft and his managers for they
counted confidently on business
men getting excited the mo
ment the Democratic campaign
showed signs of making head.
way, and the frantic efforts Mr..
Taft is making to drag the free
silver spook into the campaign,
and at the same time dodge the
issues which are of vital concern
to the people indicates the extent
OF the disappointment.
The fact is obvious that the
business men of the country
have q better appreciation of Mr..
Bryan scharacterand ability than
they had in his past campaigns
and feel now that his election
would be no menace to their in.
