Mr.. Moore's Pay Raised.

In the house the bill increasing the
Salary of the Rev. DR.. Frank Moore as
superintendent of the Railway reform
atory was introduced. When DIR. Moore
was chosen head of the institution the
salary was $4,000 per annum only, and
upon his declining to take the Office at
that pay he was given to understand
that he would be given $4,000 and his
maintenance. In order to do this it
was necessary to pass a bill, and such
a measure went through the senate,
but was defeated in the house. Mon
day night it was reconsidered in the
house and carried.
Mr.. Blauvelt held the center of the
assembly stage again a short time aft
erward when the bill repeating the
Hillery maximum tax law was under
consideration. He and Mark Sullivan
of Hudson, the Democratic leader of
the assembly, vigorously attacked the
Hillery measure, declaring that it was
passed solely for the purpose in con-
nection with the country tax boards to
enable the railroads to escape paying
their just share of taxation. Mr..
Pierce and others defended the Hillery
act, and the repeater was defeated.
Mr.. Blauyelt introduced in the house
Monday night a long resolution calling
for al expert valuation of corporate
power in the public streets for the in
formation of local taxing authorities.

man Pierce of Union. There is an
honest difference of opinion over these
bills among those who advocate the
enactment of a utilities law. while the
railroads and corporations which they
affect condemn them both. Mr.. Mar
tins measure is said to be ever more
drastic than the Hughes law of New
York, after which it is modelled. while
Mr.. Pierce's bill, based on the Robbins
bill of last year, is considered fair and
just to all interests concerned. 1t is
said that Governor Fort looks with IA.
vor upon the Pierce measure.
The senate paid a substantial tribute
to Adjutant General Breitnall, who re-
signed his Office Immediately upon the
bill retiring all militia officers upon
reaching the age of sixty-four years
becoming a law. The general had the
rank of brigadier general, and the gov
ernor at once nominated him a major
general by brevet. Tuesday the senate
confirmed the nomination in open ses-
sion.

man. He thanked God that there were
men in the assembly who were willing
to give five minutes to a plea for the

posed Mr.. Blauvelt's motion, but his
amendments were carried by a vote OF

BY a tie vote of 9 to 9 the senate
defeated a bill recommended by the
governor which provided that for cause
any state department may be probed
by a supreme court commission in

Propagating a New Grass.

Sam Winters says he will surprise
people next year with new grass, one
that grows in the saDdiest soils, is the
best of feed, and makes a luxuriant
growth. He discovered a bunch of it
last year. collected the seed, and has
quite little patch. With the seed
gathered this year he will seed quite a
plot, and believes next year, or the
year after, he can seed forty acres.
He has no theory of how the grass got
here, but says it is different from any
thing native to the country, and is
found only south of the railroad track
near Bonanza lake. Like luceern seed,
he says, it does not blow away, and
when dampened adheres firmly to the
soil. 1t sods sand over in short time,
and he believes will be of great use in
reclaiming sandy knolls. His expert
ments will be watched with interest.

More Products Wanted.

The Press would again urge upon
farmers the advantages to be gained
for their section by sending products to
be added to the permanent display that
is being arranged in United States Com
missioner Burrell's office. Up to the
present neither Rockland, Landing,
Neeley nor Arbon have single pro-
duct on display. Aberdeen has but two
contributors to the display, and Horse
Island but two. The Aberdeen country
should have not less than forty or fifty
samples of products, and Rockland
about the same. A gentleman came all
the way from Kansas, last week, to
see for himself whether the Press
was telling the truth about the grain
yields here. He saw the small exhibit
Mr. Burrell at that time had, made a
couple of trips into the country, and
was satisfied. Within short time il
will be impossible to go into the coun-
try and see a growing thing. Then an
exhibit will be more than ever neces-
sary, and the community which makes
none will suffer in comparison with
others that have been more thoughtful.
Every exhibit will bear tag giving the
growers name and place of residence,
the variety, and whether irrigated OF
grown without irrigation, so that the
| homeseeker may be able to choose for
himself. 1t is busy time TO bring II
such displays, but they should be sci
aside while harvest is in progress anC
be brought in as early as convenient.

FINE IRRIGATED PRODUCTS
Clover Eighteen Inches High, Seeded
on the Fifteenth of NAV.

Henry Fackler, of Bonita Ranch,
near Aberdeen, has produced the evil
dence in support of his claim that he is
first class farmer. Monday Henry
Hege, the mail contractor delivered to
the Press samples of oats, wheat, clover
and timothy that are hard to beat. His
oats are not so tall as some, but take
after their owner in the matter of long
headedness. Some of the heads are
eighteen inches long, some little short
er, and few are not foot or more in
length. One of the heads contained
324 grains, which furnishes some indi-
cation of the possible yield.
Accompanying the oats were few
heads of Turkey Red wheat which
looks like forty to fifty bushel grain.
The pride of his exhibit, however, is
red clover and timothy, seeded May
18th. The clover measures twenty
seven inches and the timothy thirty
seven, and finer specimens can not be
produced anywhere. After viewing
the samples we are forced to forget all
about Mr.. Fackler's stature. Big mer
do not always accomplish big achieve
ments. The products show what in
tellipent irrigation will do.

CHURCH ON WHEELS
Only One of Its Kind Will Be Here
Next Week.

Father A. w. Doran, in charge of
the Chapel Car ''St. Anthony" fur
nishes the following interesting infor-
nation regarding the car, and his plans
for next week:
On Saturday. August 14th, there will
roll into American Falls, the only Cath
olic Church on wueels" known as the
st. Anthony Chapel Car, which is the
property of the Catholic Church Exten-
sion Society whose headquarters are at
Chicago.
The car has been visiting the mission
field in Idaho this summer ministering
to the smaller congregations and scat
tered Catholics. 1t has made stops and
services have been held at Oxford,
McCammon, Pocatello, St. Anthony,
Idaho Falls and Blackfoot. After COM
ing to American Falls it viii visit Sho-
shone, Gooding and Mountain Home
before going to the Seattle exposition
to be placed on exhibition for month
or six weeks in the transportation de-
partment.
The coming of the car ought to mean
much to American Falls in its present
state of active devel, p nent. Many more
towns than can be visited have request
ed the benefit of its presence but the

ing the centre Of a thriving population
have lent to it being given the pre-
ference.
It IS to be hoped that the community
viii take an active interest as all the
other places have done in making the
stay Of the car a success. 1t is well
known fact that the Catholic church is
the largest Christian body numbering
fourteen million adhereats in the United
States. 1t IS further known that good
Catholics will not settle permanently
where there is no church building or
frequent uinistratious Of a priest. The
Catholic Church Extension Society
publishes a paper called Extension"
which has a wide circulation and the
Society IS interested in beneficial plans
Of colonization. 1t is hoped that the
visit Of the car will result in the build
ing Of church or the lots already do
mated and De a factor in the rapid
growth Of the town.
Everybody IS cordially invited to
visit and inspect the car during the
week Of its stay
The Rev. Alvah w. Doran, the chap
lain of the car will hold mission SER
vices for the Catholics every morning
at eight o'clock in the car, and will de-
liver a series Of free lectures every ev-
ening at $50 in the Auditorium on the
following subjects

PIONEER COMMITS SUICIDE.
Lem Shilling Ends Life in a Tragic
Manner.

Lem Shilling, for forty years a resi-
dent of Idaho. and well known to all
old timers, committed suicide at Ru-
pert Friday Of last week. and was
buried here Sunday He made some
gashes in MS throat with a butcher
knife, but failing to infict fatal
wound, tied weight to his feet and
jumped into well.
Mr. Shilling made his home here
much of the time. A year ago he sus-
tanned fractured leg, which was sew
eral months in healing. ard was at
tended by DR.. Moth Early last week
the doctor received a letter from Mr..
Shilling, asking if the doctor did not
want TO buy horse, stating that the
price would be right The animal
was Mr.. Shilling's favorite, and it is
believed that he was then contemplate
ing suicide and desired to place MS pet
where he thought it would receive good
care. Before the doctor got around to
reply to the letter he learned of the
finding of Mr.. Shilling's body
The deceased was brother of w. N.
Shilling of Rupert, one of the best
known and most highly respected citi-
zens of southern Idaho. on whom the
blow falls most heavily. For some
months past the mind of the deceased
has been failing, and he has had to be
watched to keep from doing bodily
harm to himself or others. Wher
here about a month ago he announced
his intention of killing both himself ane
his brother. His many friends here re,
gret his rash act, because in his normal
condition he was much of man.

A THOUGHTFUL FARMER
Being a Judge of Products, Awards
Himself Blue Ribbon.

The Press has taken occasion here
tofore to refer to w. S. Alvord, of
Aberdeen, as a benefaction to his
neighbors by reason of his knowledge in
special lines of agriculture and horti-
culture, and his readiness to instruct
others. His extreme thoughtfulness
was not fully appreciated, however,
until this week, when he sent to the
Press exhibits of grain decorated with
blue ribbon, his intention no doubt be-
ing to save the overworked agricul-
tural editor the trouble of grading it.
And he was not very far wrong in his
grading either. The oats measure five
and half feet, and are in the cham
pionship class. His wheat is enough
to make an eastern man doubt his eyes.
The only place he fell down was in fail
ing to state the varieties and how they
were irrigated.
Mr.. Alvord has the foundation laid
for one of the finest farms in Idaho,
and when all get to producing as his
this year is, the farmers will become
the real bankers of the land. We need
more exhibits like those from him and
Mr.. Fackler, which are the only irri-
gated products brought in this year te
tempt the homeseeker.

Shows the Possibilities.

Anyone who is skeptical about the
possibilities of dry farming should ask
to see samples of wheat, oats and
alfalfa grown by c. c. Robinson on his
Mace east of town, and on exhibition
at United States Commissioner Bur
reIl's office. The wheat is fine. but the
oats and alfalfa are revelation. lr-
r;gated alfalfa could not be better, and
the oats would be good crop in any
eastern state. Mr.. Robinson's place is
a typical dry farm. There is no sub
irrigation. His land is several miles
from any stream, and is ordinary up
land which few years ago was con,
sidered worthless for farming pur'
poses.
