MEETS DEATH TRYING
TO SAVE BROTHER
Jay Fitch, Nine Year Old Son of 3.
r. Fitch Drowned While Trying to
Save His Brother Neil from Similar
Fate.

Jay Fitch, the nine year old son OF
B. r. Fitch was drowned last Satur-
day just before noon in an arm of
the Payette river about one mile
west of the city where the Payetts
river empties into the Snake river.
The body was recovered an hour af-
ter the accident by Nova Lathrop. in
about six feet Of water and very
near the spot where the lad sank.
The two Fitch boys in company
with three other little companions
we're fishing and swimming at a
place where the young boys of the
neighborhood had erected a spring
board and where in most places the
water was not deep or dangerous.
Neil Fitch the older brother of Jay
got too far out in the river and sud
denly waded off a sand bar and
sank out of sight. On coming up
he called for help and Jay the lit
tie nine year old lad manfully struck
out to assist his brother who was
struggling and calling for help. Neil
managed to get out but Jay was
caught in a swift eddy and drowned.
The father of the two boys was
in Weiser at the time of the acci-
dent and arrived home just as the
body of his son was brought home.
The drowning is one of the sad
lest that has occurred in Payette for
4 long time as the little fellow
was well known as a bright manly
BOY, a member of the Baptist Sun
lay School and has many frineds
who were horror stricken to learn OF
ais death The funeral occurred
rom the residence Sunday afternoon
being in charge OF Rev. Kyles, o

ed in Riverside cemetery.

NAMPA MAKES HARD
FIGHT ON BRIDGE BONDS

The election held Tuesday to vote
ponds for two bridges across the
oayette river, one at the Carnaflx
.rossing and one near New Plymouth
brought out a bigger vote than was
hought would be given. Caldwell,
2ayette. New Plymouth. Middleton.
Parma and Emmett all came to the
ront as progressive communities and
ave the bonds support. Nampa,
however with organized effort and
.nder the slogan of no more taxes
:or us resolutely went to work to
kill the bonds and the day Of cleo
ion circulated hand bills calling on
he people OF that city to kill the
ponds By their votes. The argument
1ut forth on the bill was that
Nampa never got anything handed
hem but lemons from this end of
he county and was Il not time
Nampa people refused voting taxes
IN themselves for the benefit of
hat end OF the county that always
repays such favors with lemons. Get
busy and kill the proposition. Ev-
cry person over p years old is en-
titled to vote" BY circulating those
aand bills and an organized effort on
he part Of her leading citizens Nam
"a defeated the bonds. This in face
Il the fact that she has always
claimed deep friendship for Pay
stte. Indeed our citizens viii sppre-
siate such friendship as that It's
most touching and the probabilities
are that we never shall forget that
favor.
New Plymouth people have been
claiming that their bridge is safe
by a majority OF perhaps ten votes
but the results are very doubtful and
-he general opinion is that both
bridges are lost by between 25 and
30 votes.

APPLE WILL Be KING.
A BOOST FOR NATIONAL APPLE
SHOW.
Apple Caused Downfall of Eve but
Has Since Redeemed Itself in the
Northwest.

Some fine day there will probab'
ly be horticultural book of peerage,
and then the question will be set
tied" says the Spokesman-Review in
leading editorial, headed king Ap-
pie and the Apple Show" adding,
But just now there is King Cotton,
King Wheat, His Gold Majesty the
Corn and our Royal Highness the Ap-
Pile. The reigning monarch depends
largely upon what district a grower
of crops happens to inhabit. But
when that book is written it is dol
lars To doughnuts that in this part
of the country eternal fealty will be
pledged 10 the apple.
For while the apple spelled the
downfall of Eve, it has spelled the
ascendency of the northwest and the
inland empire. In fact, by industry
and thrift and enlightened methods
the northwest has made an apple all
its own. And the National Apple
show which has now come to be an
established Spokane institution, with
out a counterpart in the expositions
Of the world, is the visible expression
of this fact.
From November II to 19 it will
be held this year, over $4,000 in
prizes will be awarded and a new
and significant feature will be the
display of the prize-winning apples
in Chicago, where one might say
the exploitation of apple products of
the northwest will be made over a
district inhabited by 20,000,000 OF
people.
''It is a pleasure to note the growth
and continued success of an Organiza
ton of this sort, which in its charact-
er and aims represents so we'll the
spirit of Spokane and the Inland EN-
pire. 1t is but TO obey a natural and
instructive impulse TO wish the capa-
BILE managers of the apple show ev-
cry possible success and to King
Apple speed coronation and long
and prosperous reign
