At $50 a. m. Friday (yester-

opportunity to escape through
a window, when the man sprang
to follow him. AS the half
crazed fellow jumped to the

a dozen shots from the rescuers
who surrounded the house. He
died before he could be taken
to Caldwell. These are the es-

name as Ed. Hawthorne, died
last Sunday about midnight.
This individual was sworn on
the county about three weeks
ago. He was sick with typhoid
fever and seemed mildly de-

his real name, giving the name
of Ed. Hawthorne and Sacre-
mento as his residence. 1t is
thought that he was one of the

LAND DRAWING
A SUCCESS
Carey Act Opening at Medbury
Tuesday Attended by Good
Sized Crowds. First Five Choices
Go to Mountain Home People.
Especial Correspondence

NOpCCIdl OOl1CoPOiluOIISO)
November 18-At the OPEN
ing of the famous Medbury
tract Tuesday, November the
10th, thousands of people par
ticipated.
1t was a beautiful day and
every train was loaded with
people all bound for the land
where a living can be made from
five acres.
Mountain Home was here en-
mass and from all appearances
it was Mountain Home day.
In the drawings for the acreage
tracts the five first choices were
drawn by people from the neigh
boring city.
1t is plain to be seen that the
former residents from Noun
tain. Home and those from
Glenns Ferry will be the two
rival factions in settling the
new city of Medbury and in the
future it will be these two fac
tions that will be struggling for
the political control of the new
city.
One of the most interesting
incidents of the drawing is the
fact that out of the acreage
drawings there were fl 'ty-six
tracts drawn by people who
will make this valley their home
and will at once commence to
improve their property. 1t is
much better that this be made
their home than for the out
siders to come in and buy up
the land and hold it for specu-
lation purposes.
In the drawing for the Carey
Act lands Mr.. William Hard
wick of Jerome was the success
full drawer of number one but
owing to the quantity and the
quality of all the land drawing
number 46 was able to get his
first choice.
People are still coming tc
Medbury daily and are getting
choice picks from the acreage
tracts and town lots but when
one is familiar with the valley
this part of it can be very easily
explained for there is very
little land in this segregation
that is not the best iruit lanc
in the west.
Preference right land is sci.
ling fast but there are still a
few bargains to be had in this
line.

ing the future standard bearer
of the Republican party.
One paper in the Panhandle
says: "We want a man from
the north" Another one says
"Trot him out" There are sew
eral bore politicians "trotting"
about the state who haven't very
much to say in favor of the
present incumbent, but up to
date they do not seem to have
unearthed a candidate VIII o
doesn't shy.
In the meantime the good
people of the state who, under
the changed order of conditions
are going to have something to
say about who shall or shall not
be their candidate, seem to be
going ahead making Idaho the
best place in the world to live,
boosting for their own particu-
lar locality, eating three meals
a day and saying nothing.
We opine when they do say
anything it will be to register
their approval of man who
has had the courage to fill the
position to which he was elected.
1t is a pretty bitter pill for the
Democratic press to swallow
and we have not always been
able to say it in the past, but
the Republican party and their
governor in this state can pre-
sent to the citizenry of Idaho a
clean slate of platform promis-
es. There is not a single pledge
but has been backed up by the
governor, passed by the legis-
lature, and enacted into law,
with many other meritorious
laws thrown in for good meas
ure. The governor, so far, has
done just what he told the peo-
pie he was going to do-en-
deavor to see that the party
pledges were carried out and
give the people the best admin
istration of which he was cap
able, and from present appear
ances he is going to keep up
this performance.
All this calls to mind the re
cent laughable "band wagon
stunts of Democray's forelorr
hope in the last campaign
which leads us to believe tha'
the Democrats would prefel

FOUR COUNTIES
VOTED DRY
In Four Counties 1907 More Dry
Votes Were Cast than Wet
And all We're Triumphantly
Cast for Local Option.

Cast for Local Option.
In the four counties of Koot-
enai, Lincoln, Twin Falls and
Washington local option cleo
tions on Wednesday resulted in
victory for the drys in such
substantial majorities as shown
by the figures at the head of
the column. In the heavy score
of dry against wet the surprises
are to be found in such places
as Weiser, in Washington where
it was feared by the friends of
the drys they were in for a
threshing, and at best if any-
thing like an even break was
made it was all that could be
hoped. Weiser SHES her castor
into the arena and emerges from
the fray with 118 dry votes to
the good, the county precincts
swelling the total to Alt.
A most amazing vote was
that of Gooding, in Lincoln,
where out of a total of 416
votes 338 were dry-or 338 drys
to 78 wets-and the county
gives a total majority of $50
dry vot es, which makes it a pret-
ty safe place for strangers as
we'll as dwellers.
Those who thought Twin
Falls favored an open saloon
town are wiser now. For Twin
Falls city by giving Ala more
dry than wet votes told the
boose peddlers to get them
hence, while the balance o. that
thriving county swelled the
majority to 900 and emphasized
the admonition. Twin Falls
seems to be maintaining the
reputation of her sponsors--she
does things.
Koetenai's majority for right
and decency is lao. The prin-
cipal battle ground here was at
Occur d Alene City, where the
business" interests and brew
! cries worked hand in hand, as
J formerly was done in Mountain
Home, to retain saloons. This
town went wet by a majority of
303, but this was wiped out in
otherprecincts, notably at Rath-
drum which cast 254 more dry
than wet votes, giving a total dry
majority of 140.
The record to date for Idaho
reads:
Ten counties dry.
Two counties wet.
Elmore is wet; so is Ada.

AN ANSWER TO WATERHOLDER

AS the article in the last is
sue of the Maverick entitled
Mountain Home and Irriga-
The Republican. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1903-1909, 1909-11-20

swer through the columns of
The REPUBLICAN.
1t doesn't matter who "Wat-
erholder" is, it is enough to
know that his sympathies and
his support are now with the
Southern Idaho Reclamation
Company, and before the ad-
vent of that company he aided
and abetted the Great Western
Beet Sugar Company.
He asks several questions
which | shall answer. First,
he wishes to know if we have
become so demoralized that we
cannot reason. If by 1--WE" he
means those whom he supports
and sympathises with, | answer
yes! If he refers to the large
number of water right holders
who have been defrauded b
the Great Western Beet Sugar
Company, | answer that reason
and good judgment hav e
prompted all their actions dur
ling the past year. They made
mistakes when they dealt with
the Great Western Beet Sugar
Co., they profted by their mis-
take and do not proposed to BE-
trapped again.
Second, Waterholder wishes
to know if we were not assured
of owning this system within
the past year. No, you were
not assured of it. | gave it as
my opinion that the water right
owners were the rightful own
ers of the system. lam still of
that opinion, the decision of the
District Court is not final. If
the Supreme Court shall sus-
tain the District Dourt, | will
then be ready to admit | was
mistaken. If the District Court
were always right we would
have no use ..for the Supreme
Court. | am sorry you have
reasoned so little, or been so
demoralized in your reasoning
that you have taken the deci-
sion of Judge Walters as final.
Third, yes we did spend large
sums Of monev to acquire the
property, that money was
squandered, the company failed
to give us what we paid for;
perhaps the Supreme Court
will give it to us. Well see.
And while we are on this sub
ject. | ask you "Waterholder," ,"
do you know that last spring
when the Great Western Beet
Sugar Company filed a petition
to become a voluntary insolvent,
that the president of the com
pany by verified complaint
stated that the irrigation sys-
tenn was worth nothing as ar
asset to the company, and stat
ed as a reason therefor "that
said company has sold water
rights for a much greater quan.
tity of land than such reser-
voirs will furnish water RAND
that said water rights so solo
are upon an agreement that the
holders thereof shall receive
their water free of charge, 9th
er than each shall bear his
proportion of the cost of main
tanning said plant and cost OF
distribution of water, and that
therefore, there will be no in
come from said system and
that the same has no market
value" If you do know this,
"Waterholder" and you know
the company is insolvent, and

early settler of this city had been hav-
ing preaching at George Smiths two
miles west Of the town.
In the year 1923 Russell Bigelow
was appointed to the Whitewater cir
cult with a young man by the name
of George Catch for his colleague. 1t
was a large circuit embracing what is
now Franklin, Union Wayne and parts
Of Henry and Fayette counties. Mr..
Bigelow located his family at Center
vile, as it was the most central point
in his circuit. Mr.. Bigelow was about
medium in height. slender frame and
of feeble constitution. His head was
large for man of his stature, fore
head high and prominent. He wore
his hair long and permitted it to
hang over his face in an untidy man
ner. His face was smooth shaven, as
was the custom with all Methodist
preachers in those days. His eyes
were keen and penetrating, as they
looked out through the long locks that
found their way over his kindly face.
He died in Columbus. O., on July l,
1885 at the age of 43 years.
Owing to the hostility Of the In
dams in this vicinity in the pioneer
days many difficulties were encount-
cred. 1t was necessary to build forts
around the places of worship as pro-

Paris, Aug. 17.-All Paris is APP
plauding the novel capture of thief
by a we'll known dentist.
The thief, well dressed, apparently
prosperous young man, called on the
dentist and asked for consultation.
The dentist was finishing some work
with another patient and asked the
man to be seated in his office. In the
mirror the dentist saw the man rifling
his safe.
The patient in the chair was wom-
an. Fearing to grapple with the power
full man alone the dentist told the wo-
man to leave and send the first gen
darme she could find.
The dentist then called in the thief
who carried out the pretense and took
his place in the chair. Through the
clever use of an anesthetic the dentist
succeeded in putting the thief into an
unconscious condition. When revived
the thief found himself in the custody
of the police.
