STEWART SUED FOR $4,000

A suit for $50, 900 damages for
the death of her husband has
been commenced by Mrs. Emma
]. Stack against the Stewart
Mining company. The death of
Mr.. Stack took place in the
Stewart mine about one year
ago.
It is charged in the complaint
that Mr.. Stack was ordered by
the foreman to carry some pipes
into one Of the tunnels and that
while he-was engaged in doing
this he was struck and killed by
a loaded ore car. It is said that
the tunnel was so crooked and so
narrow that there was no posi-
bility of Mr.. Stacks avoiding
the car as it bore down on him.

BUTTE 8 c. D'A IS FINANCED

It is reported that upwards Of
$40, 900 has been raised for the
development of the Butte & Occur
d'Alene Mining company's prop
erty at Mullan. Of this amount
over $1,000 is said to have been
raised in Mullan and the balance
in Spokane. A considerable
amount Of stock is also being
sold in the east but the exact re-
turns from this have not yet
been learned.
It is the intention to resume
development as soon as power
connections to the mine have
been completed. This matter
has been considerably delayed
owing to right of way difficult
ties but it is understood that
this has now been practically ar
ranged.

1t has been said. and many times
fulfilled, that the first crop on an irri-
gated Idaho farm will pay for the seed
ing, cultivation and improvements. and
the second will pay for the land. One
crop has been known to pay for both.
Results, however, depend upon the in
dustry and intelligence Of the individ-
ual, and can not be accurately pre-
dicted. Reasonable industry and rea-
sonable intelligence will make these
lands yield handsome profits, and based
upon the yields, would be good invest
ment at price very much greater,
acre for acre, than would acquire the
best farm in Iowa. Idaho is filed with
so desirable as to be un-
believable to the ordinary eastern man,
and among the best of them the Press
can commend Mr.. Sweetser's holdings
at Yale.

IMPORTANT MEETING.
One of States Most Prominent Men to
Be Here Wednesday.

T. NJ. Heigho. one of the most force
full, interesting and entertaining men of
Idaho, will deliver an address at the
Auditorium next Wednesday evening.
His topic will be the advertising of the
resources Of Idaho. What ne will say,
however, and how ne will say it, no one
can tell. Heigho cannot be forecasted.
except that he is progressive, energy
personifed, and always sincere. His
mind is like the Hastings of lightning.
Illuminating and impressive No mat
ter what his subject, he is interesting.
because his manner of expression is
original and forceful. Idaho has no
more interesting character, no more
devoted champion. and few more able
than he. RefreshingIy original, vital
izingly earnest and strikingly clear IS
HeighO, and all who fail TO hear him
will do themselves an injustice. The
lecture viii be free, and its purpose is
TO have American Falls advertised along
with other towns, by stereoptieon pic
lures and literature at the Alaska-U Ukon
Pacific exposition. Following the ad-
dress dance will be given.

AN OPPORTUNITY In IRRIGATED LANDS
Lieutenant Governor Sweetser Places His Fine Ranch
at I ale on the Market in Small Lots at Reasonable
Prices and Liberal Terms-An Evidence of Fertility

Lieutenant Governor L. H. Sweetser
has placed his l,2OO acre ranch, at
Yale, on the market. 1t is located
on Raft river, twenty-six miles from
American Falls, in one of the choicest
and most fertile spots in Idaho, and has
arecord of ll9 bushels of oats per acre.
The land will be sold in small tracts to
suit purchasers, at reasonable prices
and on easy terms, and presents an op-
portunity that can scarcely be excelled.
The entire tract is irrigated from a
private ditch owned by Mr. Sweetser.
and proportionate interest in the wa
ter right will go with each parcel of
land. Adjoining the tract is noun
tain summer range for stock, which is
an advantage not to be lightly consid-
cred, and across Snake river about
eight miles distant, is the main line of
the Oregon Short Line railway.

MANY BUILDINGS
BEING ERECTED
Building Record Greatest in
History Of the Town.
Structures Range From Fifty Rooa
Hotel to Modest Dwelling Five
Hundred New Homes in Sur
rounding Country.

There has never been SO much build
ing in American Falls as at the pres
ent time. Heading the list, and in the
order of their Importance is fifty
room hotel, brick business block of
Charles Schmidt, SO, 900 pavilion by
Power City Pavilion Company, COnsoEi-
dated Wagon and Machine Company's
building, building for the Studebaker
company, Independent Telephone Com
pany building, Office building for j. F.
kosanke by L. L. Evans, Office build
ing by Duncan & Tanuer, and a large
number Of residences. OF the latter
those Of F. E. Winter and J. W. Da-
vies will rank with the best here.
Of greater consequence, however,
are the great number Of new homes be-
ing erected in the country tributary to
American FsIls. Judging by the num-
Der of land entries made here there
must be so such, either just completed
or under way. March showed 125 fill
ings, but few filing in the spring viii
locate and begin residence before
fall. Most Of these country homes are
very unpretentious and inexpensive,
but they are forerunners Of better
ones and indicate a development that
has few counterparts in the west.

Franchise for Rocky Mountain Bell.

Tuesday evening the trustees met,
suspended the rules and passed fran
chise giving the Rocky Mountain Bell
Telephone company the use of the
streets and alleys for fifty years. The
company began making improvements
nearly year ago looking to extending
and improving its service, but work
was stopped by the chairman of the
board of trustees because the company
had no franchise. The trustees later
granted franchise but it contained
clause prescribing location for the
central office which the company would
not accept, and the village has prac-
tically been without local service since
The company will at once begin max
ing improvements and extensions.

SALOON LICENSES REFUSED.
Commissioners Deny Applications From
American Falls.

The county commissioners, Thursday
forenoon, denied the applications of J.
F. Gish and W. A. West for licenses to
conduct saloons in American Falls.
The licenses of the saloons expired the
first of April, but bonds were furnished
and the license fee rendered and apph-
cations for renewal made. Official no
tiee that the licenses have been denied
will probably be received this morning,
which will end the existence Of saloons
in American Falls for two years and
probably for all time.
The fight TO close the saloons was be-
gun a year ago in March, when q peti-
ton was presented 70 the trustees
which contained more names than there
were voters at the preceding election.
yet the petition was denied for the sta
ted reason that it was not representa-
tive. Following this in July an cleo
tion was held at which the dry's won
by a substantial majority. but this was
also claimed to be not representative,
and but for the action of the commits
sioners the saloons would not have been
closed until December.

Two FRANCHISES
FOR TELEPHONE
Independent Will Build Line
to Aberdeen.
Rocky Mountain Bell Will Install New
Equipment and Extend Its Service
in Village Independent Put
ting Up Building.

The village trustees met, Monday ev-
ening, suspended the rules and passed
an ordinance granting telephone
franchise to d. W. Davis, president of
the first National Bank. Mr.. Davis is
the representative of eastern parties
who will not only install system in
American Falls, but extend it through
the Carey tract as far as Aberdeen as
soon as construction work can be DONE
but beyond that point if conditions
warrant the expenditure necessary to
do so. The people who will install the
system are experienced and able to
finance it, and to have it in operation
within very short time. A represen-
tative of the company will arrive with
in few days and make plans for the
beginning of construction.
Within twenty-four hours of the
granting of the franchise Mr.. Davis Sc
cured signers for more than seventy
telephones in American Falls, and 9TH
ers remain to be seen. The loyalty of
the people to home instition was pro-
nounced and will insure it good pat
ronage.
That the company means business is
shown by the fact that plans have been
prepared for building for the COM
pany and rush contract awarded to
Anderson & Company. 1t will be
a one-story brick, pressed brick front,
25x40 feet, adjoining the First National
Bank building, and will be rushed to
completion.
Mr.. Davis became interested in the
building of line to Aberdeen about
year ago, when an attempt was made
to organize farmers cooperative
company. Mr.. Davis was member of
the committee appointed to investigate
and report upon such system, and for
a time the outlook was promising. An
investigation disclosed such wide diff
ference between the estimate of cost
furnished by those promoting the line,
and the cost of material necessary to
construct it as furnished by supply
houses as to discourage the venture
and it was dropped. Mr.. Davis then
turned his attention toward interesting
foreign capital in putting .in first
class system and has finally succeeded I

ciated by the people of the village and

Two weeks ago Uriah L. Hawkins,

cause a fortune was not poured into my
