can prove it wasn't.
There was little echo of the re-
cent county division primary fight,
in Tuesdays election. While all the
'egislative candidates suffered loss
f few votes in the localities that
made the hottest fight at the pIimar-
iss, it was not enough to change the
General result. Zug, republican can
didate for sheriff, probably suffered
most from that fight, tOhrugh some
charges of partisanship that really
had no foundation. The vote at
Gooding came near swamping him.
Anderson too, suffered there, as did
Burnside and Disney and Fred Good
ing---indeed, every candidate from
Shoshone, on whatever ticket. They
seem to be mighty good haters, at
Gooding.
Nationally, it was a harvest for
the democrats. They will have a
majority of 30 in the lower house
of congress, and will secure some
much coveted seats in the senate,
notably that of Beveridge of Indiana
They have elected governors and con
gressmen in the New England and
the Ohio valley states, almost too
many to count. The 'old guard of
the republicans helped them elect a
governor of New York,
as 'rebuke" to Roosevelt. 1t is
sure year of surprising things in
American politics.
But there is still a market for all
the hay and hogs and eggs and tur-
keys and things one has TO seii'

1t is rather noticeable fact that
the vote in Richfield precinct is an
exact Indication of what it was for
every candidate voted for throughou
the whole. county whether on state
or county ticket. Brady carried the
precinct, by small majority, as he
did the county; all the rest of the
state ticket won out everywhere by
the same propOrtionate majorities as
they got here; and the precinct went
for the winners in every office on
the county ticket, including the two
democrats who won out, Boutwell,
and Meade.

il is still possible that Brady might
be elected. There are number Of
small, isolatedprecincts yet to he-r
from, which might possibly change
the above announced result. The
republican state central committee
has not yet conceded Hawley's cleo
ton, though the democratic statis-
ticians claim that he has won by a
plurality of about 500. 1t is remar-
lably close, whichever finally wins.
All the republican state officers,
good majorities---almost the biggest
in the history of the party, for some
of them. French is estimated to be
5000 votes to the good, which, if
true, will be the biggest majority
ever polled by any candidate in the
state, who had an opponent named
against him.
The republican judicial ticket was
not so successful. Judge Wood was
defeated in Ada county, and Judge
Bryan, the democratic incumbent in
Canyon county, was reelected over
his republican opponent.
Fremont was the only one of the
so-called Mormon countless in the
southeast to go strongly for Haw-
ley. While Bannock and Bingham
hotI, cact a conSidera hIa Mormon,
vote, their majorities for Hawley are
precarious. Bear Lake and Oneida,
the strongest, gave big Brady major
ities---though Bear Lake elected a
democratic senator. 1t had been
gossiped that the Mormon vote was
to be delivered to Hawley, in return
for a pledge to kill a railroad COM
bill. The gossip was with
out a shadow of foundation; nor is
the reverse condition true, that the
solid Mormon vote was to be deliv-
cred to Brady for any reason what
ever. They voted as they pleased,
as the result shows, and it was 9TH

that brought about the results.
1t may be wondered what effect
the railroad commission plank had
on the result. Some of the friends
of a commission have insisted that
a square, hard fight with that as an
avowed issue would have been sue
cessfuI. 1t is possible; though il
is still an open question whether thel
railroad facilities of the state are
ample enough to warrant a commits
sion. But since Governor Brady was
defeated and the issue was not put
up to defend itself, there will be
few who can insist that that was
what defeated Brady---and no one

Wood River Passengers, Westbound,
Made Glad BY New Order.

Made Glad BY New Order.
More than one traveller from the
Wood River country has said wild
and perhaps even wicked words on
divers times when going down from
here to Shoshone, westward bound,
he heard the whistle and saw the
smoke of the departing No. 13 as
the branch train sauntered into the
upper end of the yards. There is
nominally a little more than half an
hour to wait at Shoshone; but as thu
branch train waits in the morning
for the heavy mail from the east,
and that train is usually so late as
to delay the branch enough that 1t
can not make is round trip to Ket-
chum and return on schedule time,
it is very common for the branch to
fail to connect with No. 3 in the
evening. The Recorder, after sew
eral sch waits, ucalled the attention
of the railroad authorities to the
luCOuN NCulcuCe " thC PSOPAc ~ 49,
section, and orders have been given
for No. 3 to wait for the branch.
AS No. 13, the Salt Lake-Boise local.
makes no connections, SO that lit
tie wait would not seriously incon-
venience any of hheir passengers,
the company will hereafter accom-
modate the people of this section,
and west-bounders need not tarry in
Shoshone longer than to step from
one train to the other.
You don't have to crawl in on
your hands and knees, or kow-tow
like a heather Chinee, or beg like a
hungry babe for reasonable favor
from the Short Line. If you have
a real grievance 1T ism like pulling 8

thing doing The thanks OF thous

AFTER MORE PRIZES.
Company Sends Notable Fruit xhibit
to Spokane Apple Congress.

j. u. Mcpherson started this week
for Spokane, with the Idaho Irriga-
tion Company's exhibit for the APP
pie fair, to show the arrogant Wash
ingtcn and Oregon fruit kings that
there is something better on earth
than the best of their famous wares.
Now it isn't true that the fruit
of those much advertised sections is
inferior or TO be condemned--far be
it from any one to ever believe that.
Why, the apples of Hesperides and
the table fruit of the Olympian gods
and the apples that Paris scattered
on the race course for the tabled go
desses to scrap over, were worm
eaten, inferior stuff compared with
the red-cheeked beauties tat grow
in almost any of te northwestern val
leys Had the apple pies of our
good mothers been made of such
fruit as the northwest can grow in
almost any sheltered valley. there
is scarcely a man who would not
have ruined his digestion in callow
boyhood, from over-eating. The
rosy cheeks OF maidens, the sunset
red, thegold Of the morning. all
find their rival in the apples of the
great Northwest. But--while some
of the widely known fruit sections
are doing these things, there are
other sections where there is just as
great opportunity of soil and sun
shine and culture as the very best
of these. One of which is this i'm
mediate locality.
1t is of course true that there are
no bearing orchards on the new part
of this tract. But the old ranches,
most of them, where settlement has
been made long enough to allow of
growing orchards that bear, are in
with the new; the same
water supply, the same soil, same eli
They are scattered all through the
Idaho Irrigation company holdings.
They are the products of this pro-
ject; and what is done on any one
Of these old farms can be done on
any one of the new. If there were
any choice, it would almost invari-
ably lie with the uplands instead
Of with the river bottoms, where the
first farms were established. Yet
.hese old farms---not so desperately
Did either--have been producing as
we'll as the orchards of the much
leralded fruit sections. Mr.. &c
Pherson, who takes the present ex-
libit to Spokane, in the heart of the
most famous apple country in the
world, believes that he can win not
1 few prizes in open competition wit
he best they can produce. He has
gone prepared to meet hard compe-
ition, and in sch a contest there is
nch honor.

WILD MEAT FOR ALL.
Successful Hunters Remember All
Their Friends With Venison.

The Recorder, as well as number
of other Richfield residents, was the
recipient last week of real treat,
in the form of supply of venison
brought in by the Crothers-Lemmon-
Kinsey hunting party. The boys had
a month in the mountains, and they
brought back more game than any
similar party reported for several
years past. They had deer, noun
tain goat, mountain sheep, and all
the fish and feathered game they
could use. The larger game was di-
vided with very unusual liberality,
among theri many friends, and more
than one of the recipients had there
from his first taste of the wild game
that is so fast passing beyond the
memory of living man.

Cove, Ark, Feb. 17.-There is greater activity in the real estate business in this town at the pres- ent time than ever before in its history and land sales are made nearly every day. Two deals were closed today and, if one farmer had not raised the price on his place, the sales would have been three instead of two.

DOES TdlS VIOLATE
 PURE FOOD LAW?
Iexarkana Man Has the Government Seize Carload of Oats Claiming It Is Adulteratsd Because It Con-
 tains Chaff and Dirt.

One ot the most unusual cases in the history of the federal court of this district was brought to light Tuesday, when District Al. torney Worthington issued an or. der to D. s. Marshal Waves to serge car load ef oats at Texar- kama on the grounds that the con. siguor had violated the pure food laws. Sometime ago a resident of Texarkaua purchased a car load of oats from a dealer out of the state. The shipment arrived in due course of time, but the con- slguee refused to accept tue oats on the grounds that the shipment consisted of oats, chaff, grass seeds and other foreign sub stances. The cousignor refused to take back the shipment and in order to prevent himself from be- ing compelled to pay for the shipment, the consignee made a complaint to the federal authori- tres. He charged that but eighty per cent of the shipment was oats and twenty per cent foreign mat ter. The order to seize the car was sent to Texlrkana Tuesday and the shipment was taken into custody oi the federal authori- ties.
 II the charges are sustained the shipment will be confiscated by the government on the grounds that the oats are adulterated.
 This is the first tune iu this section that it has become known that the pure food law covered matters of this character and 1t is tue first time since the law went into effect that the statute has been enforced.

VALUE OF COUNTY
 FAIRS RECOGNIZED
oni'ed States Department of AgricuI- turs Proposes to Have Repre-. sentative at Each Seeks
 Information.

Little Rock, Feb. l6.-The of.
 nee ot farm mAnag ement of the
 United States Department of Az. ficuiture IS seeking information regarding the needs of the aver. age county fair iu every state of 'ne union, and proposes to have a representative at every fair held In each county this fall.
 Commissioner Guy B. Tucker yesterday received a communica. ton from D. H. Doone, assistant agriculturlst of the Department of Agriculture, requesting rnfor- nation concerning the county Ialrs to be held in Arkansas.
 ne important needs and prob lems before the average county ialr and the remedies are the questions asked of the heads of the agricultural department of tue state.
 Com missioner Tucker promptly replied to the inquiry of the de- partment ot agriculture, his ar- swer being as follows:
 "l advise that the principal need of our county fairs Is simply the natural development of these institutions that can come, 10 any great extent. only from expert. ence in each county.
 With one or two exceptions, all the fairs iu this state are of recent organization. During the last five years there has been steady development along thls line. Five years ago there were but two or three fairs of any sort iu the state. This fall there will be probably 25 or 30.
 "The greatest stimulus for county fairs, and the best object lesson in favor of competitive ex. bibitious of products, was the Boys Corn Clubs, organized for the first time in Arkasas last year. This organization was timely, following as it has the work of the United States farm demonstration agents and the a wakening 10 the advantages of systematic, if not scientific, farm ing among our adult farmers.
 The one need of our many new county farms, hor- ticultural aud agricultural shows that are springing up all over the state, is a general state organiz- ation, or at least cooperation, of executive officers in arranging dates in circuits and adopting a standard of exhibit requirements, clas assificatiou and rules.

IT WAS COLD FRIDAY NIGHT.
Government Thermometer Showed 3
 Degrees Below at Dallas.


 Bennett Jackson, who spent Friday night at the home of D. H Hopkins, who was laid 10 rest Thursday, states that the govern ment instruments there showed that at one time that night the temperature reached 3 degrees be- low zero, while at 6 o'clock this morning it had risen to l degree below.
 These and other instruments have for many years been in the care of MT. Hopkins, whose pride ia the accuracy of his reports made to the government, was we'll known. It has not as yet been decided as to who will keep the records hereafter.
 The Mena thermometers seem. from reports. to be an uncertain lot, as individual citizens of un- doubted veracity are telling how low the temperature went. and their reports vary from 4 above 10 0 below.
