Another Monster "Spud. :

Henry Forsmann, of Keuter-

morning and left on our desk a
four pound "spud" of the Pink
eye variety that beats anything
of its kind we have seen for

this is a very prolific yielding
potato and his crop this year was
as large as in other years in
spite of the dry weather. He
planted his potatoes last spring
in the center of a grain field and
says the potato bugs did not
trouble them at all, while in
other years the huge were quite
numerous in his patch.

LANSDON
COMES BACK
secretary of State Challenges the
dovernor to Prove His Cam
naign Charges Against Lansdon
.--Asks Some Questions.

A Boise dispatch dated October
81 saws: In a signed statement
riven out for publication. Robert
Iansdon, secretary of state and
member of the board of land
commissioners, accused by Gov
ernor James H. Brady of taking
advantage Of his Office for public
GAINS, enters emphatic denial of
any crooked work or Irregularities
in securing Carey act lands, and
botly retorts by inuendo and in
ferred charges that the governor
countenanced land grabs.
Lansdon's stand brings the
fight between himself and Gov
ernor Brady squarely into the
open. At first the breach was
created through bad political
feeling. Now it verges on the
bitter personal, and is the after
math of the airing of land board
matters.
While on his itinerary in north
ern Idaho, and during a political
meeting held at Troy, Governor
Brady charged that Lansdon had
exerted every possible effort to
grab public lands. When the
two met at a land board meeting
held Monday night, the secretary
demanded of the governor that
he make his charges a part of
the records of the board. This
Governor Brady declined to do.
Lansdon's statement is in the
form of a challenge to Governor
Brady to prove his charges. He
makes it personal, addressing
his remarks to the chief eXecu-
tive. Among other things that
he charges is that Attorney Gen
eral McDougall and other state
officials and employees not only
made Carey act entries, but are
heavy stockholders in Carey act
companies.
State Land Commissioner Day
is charged with carrying a check
book of Austin Brothers, land
SPECTATORS, and with purchasing
land for them after appraising
the lands as an agent for the
state. Lansdon's statement is
in part as follows:
Governor Brady, in his
speeches throughout the northern
part of the state, has taken par
ticular pains to point out to the
people that I, as a member of
the land board, was responsible
for the wrongdoings of that
body, and that l used my position
to acquire water rights and
lands. Does Governor Brady
know that Will Gibson, his cam
paign manager during the pri-
mary, as member of the land
board grabbed enough of the
land on the Emmett bench tc
make him rich?
Does he know that this land
Gibson grabbed was connected
with an irrigation project that
was handled by the land board,
OF which Gibson was a member!
The same Mr.. Gibson is now al
republican state headquarters
using his efforts to further the
political interests of Governor
Brady.
Does Mr.. Brady know thai
the Emmett bench grab was the
tankest act ever perpetrated?'
The secretary of state goes in
70 the Fremont county lease
wherein it is charged that Gov
ernor Brady gave over larg'
holdings to sheep men. Lansdor
declares that he would not be
party to the deal, and that th'
enlef executive attempted t.
make him one, and to agree to
compromise. 1t is here that h
charges Commissioner Day wit
sppralsing the land, and at tn
same time purchasing for specu

CULDESAC
met DEFEAT
Husky Cottonwood Lads Proved
Too Much For Lower Country
Team and Won the Game by
Score of II to o.

The first foot ball game of the
season to be played on the home
grounds was witnessed here Sat-
urday afternoon by a large num-
Der of spectators when the local
high school team defeated the
Culdesac team without half try
ing, score Al to 0. From the first
down it was seen that the visit
ors were outclassed and when
Deardorff skirted right end and
run 85 yards for a touchdown be-
fore the first five minutes of
play the crowd knew that it was
only a matter of how good a de-
fensive game the visitors could
put up to keep the score from
going out of sight.
While the local team had
the visitors bested in weight,
they also had them beaten in Of
fensive and defensive work, and
in fact, in all points of the game.
Deardorff was the star player
for Cottonwood and made three
touchdowns besides making great
gains through the line, working
fake plays and forward passes,
and breaking up the plays of the
visiting team repeatedly. But
he was not the whole team by
any means. All of the boys
played the game like veterans
and showed up strong for this
early in the season. They were
in the game to win all of the
time and not a one but what
pulled off plays worthy of special
mention.
Culdesac put up a stiff game
for being outclassed as they were
and showed a tenacious spirit in
not giving up until time was
called. Most of the time the
ball was in their territory and
the Cottonwood goal was not in
danger at any time. Atchisen
was the star player for the visit
ors.
Following is the lineup of the
