Auto Race Passes Through

The three racing cars in the Ocean
to Ocean race passed through the city
last Sunday and caused very little or
no interest There seems to be
little intereso in the race aside from the
starting and stopping points. The race
was boycotted by the licensed manu-
factures. consequently none of the
large standard cars were entered.
Only three of the five cars started
will finish
1t is reported in the morning dis
patches that the Ford No. was the
first to cross the tape at Seattle yester-
day at about noon. The car had been
out from New York % days and 55
minutes.
The car vas seriously delayed dur
ing the last 100 milse of the race by
the deep snow in the Snoqualmie pass
through the Cascade mountains.
Driver Scott said that in some places
the drifts W re FIVE feet deep at
the road through the pass was the
worst encountered 6uriag the entire
trip. He said the road through New
York was the best of the route
Because of a rumor that a protest
would be entered against Ford car No.
2, because it was reported to have
dropped a man and picked him up
afterwards, the award was not made
this afternoon.
The Shawmut car. which entered
the Cascade moun+airs eight hours
behind Ford car No 2. has not been
reported vet 1t is expected to finish
during the night, and claim the second
prize of $500.

A Good Reason

The Gate City News, of Poccatello,
instituted a contest in which reasons
were called for why people should
patronize home industries rather than
to ''send off, for goods to mail order
concerns A prize for S25 was
offered for the one who would give
the best reason and of the many
good one sent in, that given by Mrs
Burrus was chosen as best and the
prize was awarded to her. Here is
what she said:
BY patroniizng your Poatello mer-
chants you are building. up IDAHO
and building up Pocatello and helping
the man that lives, loves, labors and
sorrows with you. Your mail order
baron is perhaps in Europe trying to
marry his daughter to broken down
aristocrat and decrying Americanl in
stitutions.

Commercial Club Meeting

There will be a regular meeting of
the Comercial Club on Friday night
at the club rooms. A large atten-
dance is especially desired as inn
portant discussions will be brought
up concerning the present electric light
difficulties and the building of a tel
ephone line through to Grand View.
A telephone line should be built
though to Grand View and every en-
couragement given to the project by
the commercial interests of the city.
Grand View is undergoing a very
rapid stage of development and with
the new irrigation scheme shortly
to be started to water Applecove, a
new and extensive trade territory will
be orened to this city. This is the
nearest railroad point for the people
of Grand View and much of the bust
ness of that vicinity comes to this
city. Every effort should be made
to assist the people of that country
to get the much desired telephone
connections and give this city better
communication with the people there.

Strikes Flowing Water

Sylvester Barron, who has a claim
at Medbury, met with good fortune
that may do velop into very valuable
water supply while boring for water
on his place last week. He was
trying fol water with common
posthole augur. when at a depth of
about twenty three feet he struck
water that came to the surface and
flowed out of the top. How strong
this flow is or how much water the
basin contains is unknown, but it is
very probable that should he develop
the flow with a large casing he will
secure enough water to irrigate a
large tract of land. There are
springs on the ranch Of Jack Conner
ford that have developed enough
water to irrigate large acreage.
The flow was developed by digging
down to the basin and forcing large
pipe TO the water which from some
underground pressure, is forced out of
the top in sufficient quantities for
extensive irrigation purposes.

COUNTY BOARD
BUILDS ROADS
New Roads Built in Eastern and
Northern Part of the
County

The present board of county COM
missioners is one of 'fGood Roads
policy. Contracts have been let for
the construction of new roads in var
ious parts of the county and the keep
ing in good repair of the older roads.
Strict economy and honest prices
have been foremost in the consider
alton of the board on all contracts.
AS an example of this, a contract
was called for for the construction of
a certain piece of new road. The
bid seemed too high and trip of in
spection was taken over the proposed
road On returning a contract was
entered into for the construction of
the road at price nearly 5000 less
than the first bid, which means saw
ing of that sum to the county
A new road will be constructed from
Glenns Ferry to King Hill which will
eliminate the old river road which has
always been dangerous to travellers
The new road will take shorter route
and extend back from the river some
distance. A new road will be cor
structed from Reverse through Med
bury to Glenns Ferry, which will put
Medbury on a main travelled road to
points east or west. This
gives a shorter road from Mountain
Home to all points in the eastern part
of the state and assist in opening up
the valley of M edbury where so much
activity is expected within the next
year.
The mountain roads north of the
city will be greatly improved. The
cut and a new road made giving a
better grade through that section and
also Boiler Grade between Rocky
Bar and Atlanta. 1t is the intention
of the board to make the road to
Atlanta the best possible road of any
that goes in to the mining camp.
Auditor Smith stated that with the
above improvements much of the heavy
grade, in fact nearly all of the worst
grade, will be done away with, and
a fairly good road for travel opened
up. This, when completed, will
make a better road for the heavy
freighters than the Boise road The
Boise road at last account was in
very bad shape and and travel over it
nearly impossible. The Mountain
Home road when repaired by the
county board will keep all the br ST.
ness enjoyed by this city in past years.
safely intact.

POTATO KING

The state of Colorado is likely to
lose the upbuillding influence of
Eugene H. Grubb, the famous Mount
Sopris potato king, fine stock breeder,
expert agricul turist and leading mem
ber of the Colorado state board of
agriculture, for he is being lured to
southern Idaho by the promise of GER
tain wealth guaranteed by fertile soil,
unlimited water supply and the fav-
orable climatic conditions existing in
this section.
Boise financiers and promoters who
are interesed in land in the Hager-
NAM valley are aware of the fact
that the Colorado potato king is about
to move to this state. Just at pre-
sent MIR. Grubb is confining his efforts
to securing choice locations for him

and eastern friends.
Mr. Grubb had heard much of the
fertility of the Idaho soil and when
he received sample lot of his favor

the Snake river country and realized
that they outclass the best varieties
of Murphys ever raised in his be-
loved Mount Sopris district. he stared

now in Idaho to thoroughly look over
the country and investigate If he

A Birthday Surprise

A very pleasant surprise for Miss
La We're Bell was successfully
carried out last evening at her home.
During the day Mrs. Boyd told her
she had invited in a number of
friends to spend the evening in a
social way, giving no hint of the real
surprise which was to come later.
The friends of Mrs. Boyd dropped in
about eight o. clock and were enjoying
the evening at music and conversa-
tion. During a selection on the piano
by Miss LaVere about twenty of her
young lady friends entered through
the kitchen and took possession of the
parior. where she discovered them on
finishing the music on the piano.
The surprise was complete.
The pleasant and hospitable home
of the Boyds' was given up to song
and laughter and the evening wore
into the small hours of morning
before the guests were aware of the
fieeting time. An exquisite luncheon
delighted the guests after which all
left for home, wishing Miss LaVere
Bell many happy returns of the day.
