Quite an interesting trial took place at
Justice Hawes' court yesterday in which
Jack Stoddard was the plaintiff and Shea
Bros. were the defendants. The plaint-
iff was suing to get possession of GER
tain horse which was being held by the
defendants for pasturage bill, ETC., and
after lengthy discussion on both sides,
the case was left to the jury to decide and
the following verdict was rendered: We,
the jury, are unanimously of the opinion
that the horse in controversy is the prop
erty of the plaintiff and recommend that
the same be held by the defendants until
the sum Of seventy-two dollars be paid
for pasturage, etc.

CANDID ADVERTISING

Time was when even reputable mer-
chants lacked full candor in their adver-
tising. It was argued-by people with
ridiculous ideas Of the aims and purposes
Of adyertising-that the people would
only believes small part Of what an adj
vertiser claimed, anyhow; hence it be-
hooved him to exaggerate accordingly, SO
that after the readers deduction for ex-
aggerations had been literally made, a
basis of truth would remain.
As this was always a false argument, it
has been exploded to stay exploded
self-respecting, thinking people are the
people who read ads nowadays. And to
deliberately mis-state fact in advertising
now is simply a species of attempted bust
ness suicide.
A store which would thus forfeit the
confidence or respecto of all honest people
would soon find out that there were not
enough dishonest people-or of people
who could condone dishonest advertising
lin this town to support the smallest
store in it.
You may read the ads nowadays with
the satisfying knowledge that advertisers
realize that falsehood is business suicide
-unfailinglyl
Candid advertising is necessary nova
days. -Nampa Leader-Herald.

hardship on the taxpayers Of all sections,
we therefore pledge our legislative candi-
dates to vote against any measure that
may come before the legislative body for
consideration, having for its object the
changing of the present boundary lines
of 0wyhee county.
Experience of the past few years has
fully demonstrated that the present sys-
tenn of working the county roads under
road supervisors is great deal more ex-
pensiye than the system of working roads
by contract, and that the advantages de-
rived and the improvements made in the
condition of the roads and highways is
not commensurate with the vast difference
in the cost of maintenance, we believe it
would be to the best interests of the tax
payers of the county to return to the
contract system of maintaining and keep
ing in repair the public roads and high
ways.
In the event of success at the polls, we
pledge our candidates to thorough busi-
ness-like administration of county affairs,
in which economy will at all times be in
evidence; keeping in view the fact that
our county is rapidly advancing, and en-
deavoring to keep abreast of such ad-
vancement.

shipment the chances are that other ore
measures will disclosed, from which a
two-carload shipment can be made; the
production constantly increasing as work
progresses, until in due time, the mine
owner will discover the fact that he, quite
unexpectedly, is in possession Of regular
producer-a dividend payer. And, the
more he works, the more he ships, the
greater his mine becomes.
If you have ore, don't wait until you
have opened big body Of pay-rock be-
fore you begin to realize on your enter
prise. Send in carload. The way it
will be grabbed up by the smelters will
surprise you; the net returns will encour-
age you; and you will surprised how soon
people will begin talking about your
property; how soon they will want to join
with you in what, to them, looks like
sure winner.
Do not lose sight Of the fact that you
are mining for ore and not for amuse-
ment, nor for the purpose of passing
away the time. This being the case, ship
that lot of ore you have piled up on your
dump, and then keep on digging for
more. In this way you can continue the
development of your mine, your prospect,
without being obliged to call for help
from the outside. Now is the chance for
the little mine If accepted, the mine
may soon be big one Mining Review

THE BANNER.

Another rich strike has been made on
this property within the past week. This
time the miners struck the ledge in the
200 and it proves to be the same as that
struck in the 100 and fully as rich as that
encountered in the workings above. The
outlook of this property is now more en-
couraging than ever and the signs point
to its being the best property in the camp.
There is an old saying that ''gold is where
you find it, /" and it is with great pride
that we make such favorable reports on
this property when taken into considera-
ton the time and money spent in open
ing up and developing this mine, and
then to be able to report that they have
finally struck it rich. If there ever was
company which has spent its money le-
ultimately, honestly and economically, it
surely has been the Banner Mining &
Milling company, and we are only too
glad to note that the day is not very far
distant when this company's holdings
will be added to Owyhee's list Of produc-
ers.

Democratic Platform of Owy-
hee County, State of Idaho

We, the duly elected and constituted
County Central Com;.sittee Of the Demo-
cratic party Of Owyhee County, State of
Idaho, having met in pursuance Of the
provisions of an act passed by the Tenth
Session Of the Legislature of the State Of
Idaho, entitled An Act relating to and
providing for the nomination of Congress,
State, District and County Officers ETC.,
approved March 9th, 1909, for the pur-
pose Of preparing party principles, here
by adopt the following party platform
and principles:
We hereby endorse the platform
adopted by The Democratic candidates for
state offices Of the State of Idaho at the
meeting Of said candidates held in Boise.
Idaho, September goth, 1910.
Believing in the fundamental principle
of Direct Primary Election Law, that
the people, and not the politicians, shall
have the power Of deciding who shall be
their candidates, we affirm our allegiance
to the Primary Election Law now in force
in this State, and pledge our legislative
candidates to exert their every effort
toward the amendment of said law, to
the end that the will of the people will
not be thwarted, and particularly will
their efforts be directed towards the re-
peal Of the requirements therein as to
second choice voting, and to so amend
said law that plurality of first choice
votes shall decide a nomination
Believing that individual depositors in
banks are and should be entitled to the
same security that is given municipal,
county and state depositors, and believ-
ing that the best interests of all the peo-
pie would be the better safeguarded by
the enactment of law that would insure
and guarantee the deposits of all patrons
of banks, and realizing that what is COM
monty known as the Oklahoma Bank
Guaranty Law, which has been in force
and effect in the State of Oklahoma for
number Of years, has proven TO be prac-
tical, successful and satisfactory, we here
by pledge our legislative candidates to
exert their efforts and to vote for the
passage of law similar to the above
mentioned Oklahoma law.
Realizing that owyhee county contains
vast areas that will in time prove to be
the best agricultural lands to be found in
the entire State of Idaho, and which,
with proper and adequate irrigation, will
become of great value, and that in com

ficiently advanced, both in population
and assessable property, to support two
county governments, but believing that
at the present time a division of the
county would tend TO work an unjust
