Immune to Strychnine, Try Bullets
and Old Age Next.
Engineer Barnes says that if any
one on the tract finds a coyote that
looks, acts or in any way seems to
be like a drug store, it is his. He
had one coyote out near his camp
that used to make the night miser-
able by such peculiarly unearthly
noises that he thought the poor dear
must be deathly sick So he got one
of the best coyote remedies known
number of doses ready for a long
spci. of doctoring. The suffering
coyote took them all as fast as he
coulc put them cut, and since then
has been SO clipper and songfuI that
there's no doubt OF the remedy be-
ing good Mr.. Barnes trusts that no
Gle will modest this coyote, for he
believes he can train it to become
immune against even bullets, hunger
and old age, since it has gone thru
the strychnine ordeal SO easily.

SCHOOLS ARE POPULAR.
Harmony and Progress In Every De-
partment of RichfieId School.

1t is only well earned praise
to say that no school in the state
is more popular with both pupils
and patrons than the Richfield pub
lie schools Work In both rooms has
gone along with harmony that is
as near ideal as could be found or
dreamed Miss Dew in charge of
the lower grades has proved her
self teacher of unusual ability, and
with that a friend and companion Of
the pupils that brings out the very
best efforts. Prof. Lenker, who su-
pervises the upper grades, is an ex-
cellent teacher and executor, and the
way the pupils have extended them
selves to make good progress is a
fine tribute to his popularity.
While the attendance is not what
had been anticipated earlier in the
year, the exceptional quality of work
being done is enough to more than
please the school board and all the
patrons Of the school.

pInsive a line as this 210-mile CIT

win it be made part of the big
building program which the Short
Lin system is going to inaugurate?
Only the d,iinite dcision of the Off
cials and stockholders will be able
to say But one thing is certain
this line is highly favored by some
of the highest authorities of the
raod, they now have the money to
build il if it seems available; and it
is lot better chance to have them
wantni.; to build, and having the
money in their pocket to do it, than
to have them lacking one or both of
-hese vital qualifications.
The larger part of this item is
not news--merely a guess from the
onditions as they appear to one who
looks on from the cold outside---but
there is a beautiful possibility in
the few facts ofplenty of money and
a good disposition, and the Record
er considers that the situation has
frightened amazingly.
Even If the road were ordered at
once, it would not be possible to do
much if any construction work this
fall. But the surveys, according to
the best information at hand, are
far enough along that active con-
struction work could begin in the
early spring.
Here's hoping for big announce
ment in the very near future.

WILL RAISE HOGS
Far Seeing Farmer Says They VIII
Be a Banner Crop.

J. w. Poteet who came here and
made proof last year on his fine
farm west of town, started back for
his home in Colfax, Washinbton, this
week. He has done a lot of work on
his place during the month he was
here this time, and goes back with
better opinion than ever before Of
the farming possibilities here. He
expects to ship in lot of blooded
hogs next season believing that no
other stock will make so much for
the farmer. Mr. Poteet has large
property interests at olfax, and does
not anticipate an early removal to
this section but he will improve his
land and put it all into cultivation
as soon as it can be done.

the mountains have brought up the
volume of the river, until there is
an abundance for every purpose. The
settlers who had wondered what to
do about water for stock and house
use, now have plenty of it with no
effort on their part. 1t is under
stood that the company intends to
keep water in the canals as nearly
all the winter as possible, though
the possibility of having the canals
cloged with ice and snow makes
good reservoir or cistern an in
vestment well worth the making. A
few of the settlers have put in good
cisterns, rock walls cemented, with
a charcoal and brickh filter through
which they run the water direct
from the ditch, and not one of these
farmers would sell his cistern for
much less than the price of the en-
tire farm. Such an Improvement is
somewhat expensive, costing from
$3.50 to $500. But it is fine ad-
dition to any place, and it is
good investment at any time.
But from present indications, the
company will have plenty Of water
in the canals all whitewater to
drink, to farm with, to swim. in, to
skate on, to fish in, and water to
burn if any one wants it for that

Hard Competition at Boise, But the
Richfield Showing Is Good.
Word comes from Boise that the
Idaho Irrigation Company exhibit al
the Inter Mountain fair is just good
enough to be in line for a lot OF
premiums; the premiums have not
yet been awarded, so the announce
mentS can not yet be made. ut the
fact is very well attested, that the
exhibit sent from here is so good
as to rank with the best, and to be
it's own proof that this country, new
as it is has the producing possibil-
tiles that have made s50G and sl00t
an acre land elsewhere---why not
here as we'll?
The competition at the Boise fair
was keener than at the other fairs
to which the company has sent it's
exhibit---naturally it would be hard
er to beat Idaho in producing almost
any kind of stuff than it would to
beat common Webfooters or Puget
Sounders---but the boys who raised
and collected the stuff here are not
afraid to meet even the best of old
settled Idaho on even terms.

There is no direct news on tn,
railroad situation as it affects thi.
locality, but one item of vast inter
est because of the possibilities i
contains is announced from Sail
Lake under the date of October the
18th:
The Oregon Short Line railroad
has voted through its stockholders
to increase its capital stock from
500, 100000 to 500, 100000, the
additional capital, $77 100000, be-
ing for extensions and the better
ment of the road and the rolling
stock.
Some months ago, the Short Line
ordered large lot of rolling stock,
one of the heaviest orders in the
history of western railroading. 1t
covered a large number of locomo-
tives---for the allied Hartman lines
in this part of the west there was
train of new engines. more than 2
coaches, freight cars, wreckers, and
all kinds of equipment in quantities
that will take months to finish the
orders The whole system has been
loaded with about all the traffic it
could bear. Engines that years ago
ago were believed to have been dis
carded for good have been taken out
of the dead yards and put into serv-
ice. Tie single track road has been
crowded with trains. The conditions
called for mprovement---and more
trackage and more equipment was
the reason for this recent increase
in capital st ok.
The new main line through Ida
ho, the line from Ow M. through
Richfield, Camas Prairie, Boise and
on to the present main line at or
near Payette--is one of the most
important of the proposed new act

There are some men to whom
little else will appeal but the one
argument, "Will it pay?" And the
financial side is tn only side; there
is no friend like the dollar---or the
vote, or a promise of the most pow
er, or whatever material thing is at
stake. A warm human friendship
is no more to them than a dream,
to be forgotten in the light of the
cleaning dollar.
But thank the Lord they're not
all that way. There are men who
can balance friendship against votes,
or dollars or any other thing---and
choose rightly. Burton l.. French
is one When he heard that Rich
field precinct had given him prob
ably the best percentage vote in the
state---69 to9, or nearly 8 to l.
of any precinct in the state where
no personal considerations influenc-
ed the vote either way---when he
learned that this small precinct had
so strongly endorsed him as an hon
est, progressive candidate, he told
the state central committee to put
him down for speech here. There
were other places where he might
reach several times as many peo-
ple---but Richfield was his friend,
and he'd go there to visit his friends
whatever else happened. It's quite
an admirable trait; indeed, 1t is the
trait which has made and keeps him

wilds of crime-haunted New York,

Mr.. French. candidate for con-
gress and O. V. Allen, candidate
for state treasurer, visited Richfield
Wednesday night; the former with
only brief warning, and the lat
ter with no warning at all. But it
was a very welcome surprise, mad
a good crowd gathered to greet the
visitors Mr.. Allen spoke first tax
ing up state politics. In particular
he answered the charge made by ].
H. Hawley, democratic candidate for
governor of great extravaganza in
the conduct of state affairs. Mr..
Hawley had charged that it costs
now 200 per cent more to run the
state affairs than it did when the
democratic party was in power, up
to eight eyars ago. This Mr. Allen I
admitted---but he showed where the
state had grown so enormously that
the expenses had grown also, and
that the percentage cost of the var
ious departments had been greatly I
reduced---in one case it only costs
about / / per cent of the percentage
cost. of administering the same de-
partment during the Hunt admins
tration. He showed that, if there
be any truth in the charge of ex-
travagance on the part of the state,
it is chargeable to democrats as well
as to republicans for the legislature

plowing, leveling, and laying plans
