SHORT LINE HELPS
ALFALFA GROWERS

Ogden, April l.-Denied a re-
duction in transportation rates for
the shipment of their surplus hay,
the Alfalfa magnates of Twin Falls
and Burley, Idaho, who s'bulled''
the hay market this season with
disastrous results, have prevailed
upon the officials of the Oregon
Short Line railroad to advance
them their seed with the UNDER
standing that it will be paid for
when the crops are harvested.
With more than 100, 900 tons of
alfalfa stacked in their enclosures.

the sheep men of The surrounding
country would be compelled to de-
scend into the lowlands with their
fiocks and buy hay, the farmers
smilingly refused offers of 80 a
tom aud demanded at least $40.
Now they would welcome an offer
of SO ton.
With financial failure staring
them in the face, the farmers sent
delegates to Ogden and Salt Lake
to appeal to the railroad officials
for reduction of rates, that the
hay might be shipped to these
points for sale. This the Oregon
Short Line company refused to do,
partly on the grounds that it would
be an injustice to local hay men
Satisfied, however, that the newly
settled districts of Twin Falls anG
Burley would receive a severe set

.CHAS. ROBERTSON
COMMITS SUICIDE

Charles Robertson committed sui
eide IN Denver last Monday by
shooting himself. Mr.. Robertson
was until recently employed by the
Short Line as block signal main.
tainer and was stationed at Mo, I.
pelier for year or more. He v as
transferred to Pocatello about four
months ago, and shortly after going
there his friends here were surprls-
ed to learn that he had quit the SER
vice of the company and deserted
his wife. While living here he join
ed the Odd Fellows and was IN good
standing in the Montpelier lodge al
the time of his death.
That he was brooding over some
domestic or other troubles, is evid-
ent from letter he wrote the secre.
tary of the lodge about four weeks
ago. In this letter he intimated
that he intended taking his own life
as everything had gone against him
and the world was dark and dreary.
Shortly afterwards another letter
was received which stated that things
were looking better for him, and he
hoped to soon be able to repay the
money which he had borrowed be-
fore leaving Montpelier. That was
the last the lodge here heard from
him until the secretary received q
telegram from the Denver Odd Fell
lows Tuesday morning announcing
his death, and asking what disposi-
ton should be made of the body.
Mrs. Robertson was communicated
with at Pocatello and she suggested
that the body be shipped to Moab,
Utah, where he has relatives resid-
ing. The Denver Odd Fellows
were 80 advised.

BANK OF MONTPELIER
IN new QUARTERS

AS sturdy oaks from little acorns
grow. SO are large and conservative
financial institutions often built up
from small beginnings.
Such is the case with the Bank of
Montpelier, which opened it's doors
for business on a small scale in May,
1891 q. G. Gray, president of this
institution and owner of the banks
handsome new $4,000 home, was at
that time a young tenderfoot from
Iowa. Montpelier itself did not then
present very inviting appearance to
investors, bnt having come west to
grow up with the country" Mr..
Gray, after sizing up the situation,
decided to cast his lot here.
When the bank opened it's doors
for business on that bright May
morning in 1891, it was the only in
stitution of its kind with a radius of
100 miles. 70 have such vast field
for operation would have been ali in
centive for some young man to do

leave the country. Not SO with Mr..
Gray. Being young man Of con
servative disposition, he began by
being conservative in all business
transactions, believing that by fol
lowing such a policy he could best
gain the confidence of the people of
this section. By following this poll
cy throughout his 20 years of bust
ness, he has succeeded in placing the
Bank of Montpelier right at the
head of the list of Idaho's solid final
cial institutions.
Finding that the business was out
growing the little quarters in which
he began operations, two years ago
Mr.. Gray set about to erect new
and suitable home for the bank, and
the structure which now adorns the
corner of Main and Ninth streets will
stand for ages as a monument to his
business ability and enterprise. The
building was planned largely by Mr..
Gray, who personally selected the
material and fixtures. While the
building as whole is not fire proof,
the vault is absolutely fire proof, and
is SO plainly exposed to view from
the street as to make its attack from
safe crackers at night entirely out OF
the question.
The fixtures are of rich mahog-
any design, the floor of the lobby ii
constructed from Italian Marble
clippings mixed with concrete and
polished, making 1t both attractiv,
and durable. The building is wei
lighted and is heated with moderr
hot water plant.
The second floor is divided int,
eight office rooms, the furnishing
of which are modern. In fact tht
building throughout is modern In al
of it's appointments and Mr.. Ora.

The two men thus fonnd themselves
in bad predicament, with water OF
of unknown depth on all sides of them.
They were in quandary for some time
as to what to do, but finally decided to
make an effort to wade to a hay stack
about quarter of mile away. t.
reached the stack, which lie about two
miles from the Paris-Dingle road, with
much trouble. Just before dusk they
signaled to couple of men on horse
back. who were travelling on the road,
but the latter not knowing that the
signal came from those who were in
distress, paid no heed to 1t.
Davis and Riley then realized that
they we're booked to remain there all
night. They warmed themselves as
best they could by getting under the
hay. 1t was long, dreary night for
them, and to add TO their discomfort
they had nothing with them to eat.
At daybreak Sunday morning they
made small raft out of some polei
which happened to be around the stack
AS the night had been so cold that ict

on the raft was very slow, and it wa

Although there was only one
ticket in the. field Tuesday, some
little excitement was created by q
report which was circulated abou,
noon to the effect that E. M. Stew.
art had been put in the, race fol
mayor and that heavy vote was
being cast for him in the Second
and Third wards. 1t was also re.
ported that an effort was being
made to defeat Douglas and Reese
for councilmen in the Second ward.
Mr.. Stewards name was used
against his wish, and while it was
not anticipated that the movement
would develop much strength, yet
the report aroused the friends of
Henry Hoff, the regular nominee
for mayor, and they got busy dur
ing the afternoon. The result was
that 4o6 votes were cast, which was
within 1875 as many as were polled
at the city election two years ago,
when there was lively contest on
party lines. The vote in the differ
ent wards Tuesday was as follows:
FIRST, 153; Second, 1874; Third 1879.
When the votes were counted in
the Second ward it was shown that
no fight had been made against
Reese and Douglas, as they received
l13 and ia votes respectively out
Of the 124 cast. However, the
count of the votes showed that

respectable race for edark horse, .
