TWO CARS OF AUBURNs

Watson and Vogler receiver a car
load of Auburn cars few days ago
which are all sold and another car is
expected daily.
They are of the four-cylinder type,
and the motto of the manufacturers
is "The most for the money" The
men who use them say Most miles
least trouble" They can travel
cheaper than on the cars, and can go
where railroad trains do not go, and
at times when trains cannot be had.
1t is said that of the six hundred
owners of Auburn cars in California,
and forty in Idaho, not one is dissat-
isfied with his purchase, and when
such claims as this stand unchalleng-
ed for any machine 1t is pretty good
indication that the manufacturers
have come close to perfection in their
product.

TROWBRIDGE & NIVER EXCUR-
SION

IN excursion Of ninety Chicago
bankers is now on tour of the west
in special train of seven Pullmans,
and visited Lost River last Friday.
They went out in the morning, and
returned just after noon. They are
backing the Big Lost River projecs,
and are furnishing the millions to put
in the big system.
When they reached Blackfoot on
their return trip they all assembled
in one coach, and Mr.. McMannis
was giving a lecture, analyzing the
resources of the Lost River country
as they had seen it. He was speaking
through megaphone, and everybody
offered comments or asked questions
somewhat after the manner Of class
in school. They were quiet and order
ly, and were getting important facts
and weighing the prospects Of the
country based upon it's ability to pro-
duce something that commands a
market price.
When Mr.. McMannis finished he
introduced Mr.. Niver who began by
telling them something of Blackfoot,
and then of Idaho Falls and the Idaho
Irrigation district in which they have
$325,OO0 invested in the form Of
bonds.
The train just stopped here for a
few minutes for orders.

DID NOT sQUANDER THE FUNDS

The statements circulated by local
men that F. c. Bowman, secretary
of the Club of Commerce of Idaho
Falls; and ]. T. Carruth, secretary Of
the Blackfoot Commercial club, have
divided 100000 of the money appro-
priated to advertise Bingham county
at the A.-Y.-P. exposition and appro-
priated it to their own use, and quit
doing anything with an exhibit is not
true.
They expended $500 for the moving
picture demonstration that is maxi
ing such hit at Seattle. Then Mr..
Bowman deposited $1,000 with an
Idaho Falls bank, out which he has
been paying bills contracted in add
ing to the exhibit. Two members of
the committee, Jabus Nowlin and Joe
Taylor have checked up the accounts
and the balance of money and pro-
nounce them properly used thus far.
The other $1,000 was deposited by
Mr.. Carruth in the Standrod bank and
the Blackfoot State bank in the name
of the committee for the Seattle Fair,
and it is all there but $73.35 for
which vouchers show proper expendi-
lures in adding to the exhibit at Sc
attic.
M. S. Mccoy and wife of Idaho
Falls are employed to attend to our
exhibit at Seattle for 800 a month

that the sidewalks to be laid on the
east side of Stout avenue from Paci-

He recommended that on the south

east the walks be laid 26 IL feet
from the street center to the McDOn-
aid addition and six inches from the
property line through that addition.
Complaints having been made both
in and out of the council as to the
work of City Engineer Fred Kiefer,
the board at its last meeting enter
tanned a motion to dismiss him, but
it was laid over until the next meet

invited to speak in his own behalf. He

carried.
The side walk on the south side

An order was made authorizing the

The others inquired in what respect,
the answer was this in substance.
The exterior Is beautiful and In

We left Sitka and went back to-

There was not the danger or excite

The salmon were going up stream,
they would climb the different falls

NEW INDUSTRY FOR BLACKFooT
New Chemical Treatment Applied 20
Concentrates of Snake River
Flour Gold

There was a meeting at the Com
mercial club rooms Friday evening to
discuss the subject of extracting
Snake River gold by the chemical
process.
S, V. Clevenger, the president of
the Gold Point Extraction and Explo1
ration company, stated that series OF
about four hundred tests of the sand,
earth and gravel. taking 1t from the
surface down, on the Gold Point
bench, shows average values of $1.65
per cubic yard; that 1t can be treated
by the sluicing and chemical process
for ten cents per yard, and that from
95 to 80 per cent of the gold can be
extracted by this process. They are
erecting plant by which they can
treat 500 yards day, leaving a net
profit of about SITS per day.
The process Is to secure the black
sand, which bears the gold, by sluic-
ing, and then place it In tanks and
leach the gold out by exposing 1t to
cyanide, drawing the gold out of the
bottom of the tanks in solution. 1t is
then allowed to flow into tank filled
with zinc shavings, and the zinc takes
up or absorbs the gold. When the
zinc becomes loaded, 1t is retorted
and the gold left pure in the retort.
The plant they are erecting Is to
be such that it will carry out the
principle followed in the large ex-
perimental plant, and the estimated
cost is less than $10,000.00. A stock
company has been formed by local
men, and only enough stock will be
sold to secure money to put In the
plant. The projectors of the enter
prise hold half of the stock, and ex-
pect to get their profits from operat-
ing the plant. None of the stock has
been offered at less than par value,
and none of it is given away to secure
anybody's influence.
A Mr.. Smith of Logan spoke very
Interestingly on the subject. He had
been out at Gold Point and made in
vestigations, and was very much i'm
pressed with the apparent feasibility
Of the plan. He is miner OF long
experience, and said that II such
discovery as this one were reported
