MANUFACTURING LAWN SWINGS.
Hammock & Sons Establish = New
Industry.

j. Hammock & Sons are manu-
featuring lawn and porch swings
and will endeavor to introduce them
in every town in southern Idaho.
Orders have already been shipped
to Pocatello and Blackfoot and Mr..
Hammock will leave on a western
trip within few days for the pur-
pose CT introducing them.
The swings manufactured by this
firm are made of heavier lumber
than is employed in any other swing
and are reinforced where usage has
demonstrated weakness. The swings
as they leave their shop today. are
the result of fifteen years of exper-
ence. The swinging frame is sus-
pended from steel rod, the con-
nection being made by steel stirrup.
Bolts are literally used and with
inch and half lumber used instead
OF seven eights, steel rods instead
of wooden ones. the difference be-
tween this swing and others on the
market are readily apparent. Two
sizes. two and four passenger. are
made. The larger ones sell for
$1,000.

New Policy Results in Quite . Saw

An examination will be held in
the public school building in Am
eriean Falls Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of next week for the
teachers of northern Oneida county
and the corners of Blaine and Bin
CHAM contiguous thereto. The ex-
animation will be conducted by
Superintendent W. w. Thompson.
This plan was adopted last Feb
ruary by County Superintendent
Simpson in order to save Oneida
county teachers the expense of
going to Malad. AS the state board
grades the papers any teacher in
the state may take the examination
wherever it is most convenient. This
makes it possible for the teachers
in Bingham and Blaine, who can
come to American Falls whit less ex-
pense than would require to go to
either Blackfoot or HALEY. to take
the examination here.

UP TO COMMISSIONERS
SAYS AUDITOR TAYLOR
They Alone Can Protect the PeO-
pie Against Unjust an Unnec-
essefy Taxation


That as a consequence of Govern
or Hawiey's position since his return
from Washington that as the govern
or of the state he has the legal au-
thority to enforce the assessment
OF all property in the state al It's
cash valuation regardless of the
views or action of the other MEM
ers of the equalization board, the
assessment of property at cash val
uatton will probably proceed, and
the only and last resort of the peo-
pie will be an appeal to the county
com mfssioners is the opinion of the
State Auditor s. D. Taylor. Mr..
Taylor declares, however, that as a
matter of justice to the people the
county commissioners of the several
counties of the state should be
guided by a conception of common
sense, Justice, and the voice of the
people and so adjust their time tn at
they can hear the people and afford
them relief from i'll advised and un-
warranted action. In speaking of
the probable outcome of this much
agitated subject Mr.. Taylor said:
In answer to your inquiry as to
what is going to be the final out
come of the cash value assessment
plan as the consequence of the posi-
ton taken by Governor Hawley since
his return from Washington. | will
say that in all probability. assess

with the governor full value assess

advised is resulting in ridiculously

The people have only one
recourse now and that Is through
the county commissioners of the
different counties of the state. Fort
unately, the majority of these COM
missioners are men who have come
from the masses, who are of people,
who understand their condition and
are thoroughly in sympathy with
the farming class upon whom this
injudfcious policy falls the heaviest
have looked upon this radical
purpose of the governors not from
the view of the capitalistic class, for
they can stand it, but from the view
point of the ranchers, the farmers,
and the small property owners of
the state.
The imperative demand of our
country is for officials who will
prove true to the trust reposed in
them by the masses regardless of
circu instances My one ambition is
TO serve the people who elected
me in an efficient way, and to be
as Jealous to serve the fellow who
is laboring day by day for just
little more than enough to support
his family as in serving the man
