For A Centralized School

II A Ward, A. Y. Satterfield, and
L. A. Nugent, representative citizens
of Stirling, were in conference with
the county commissioners Monday,
relative to a centralized school to- be
located in the embryo city named.
There was a well signed petition pre-
scented, and there was also many com
1ounications from residents of other
parts of the same territory, object
Ing to the schools being located at
Stirling. Miss Beach, county superin
tendent of schools entered several
objections of one kind and another.
There seems to be desire down in
that territory for centralized school
but the participants in the affair
seem inclined to want it in their res
pective yards. Stirling is centrally To-
Gated, there seems to be number
of the residents of that community,
who have purchased lots in the town
on the strength of the school being
built there, and from a general point
of view Of the subject it seems the
logical point for centralized school
building.

New Cash Grocery Changes Hands

A deal was consummated last week
whereby Roy DeKay, brother of F.
e. DeKay, and John Davis, gained
the proprietorship of the New Cash
Grocery on North Main street, open
ed about six months ago by Fred
T. Hines. The stock was invoiced
Sunday and the new proprietors took
possession on Monday morning. Both
are young men, and have been in the
Model grocery as clerks for some
time. They hardly need an intro
duction to the grocery buying people
of Blackfoot as their courteous treat
ment and ability to mix has won for
them a. large circle of aquaintances
whose trade they will control. They
will enlarge the stock carried by Mr..
Hines, adding many articles to the
assortment. Mr.. Hines has land
west of town, to which he will devot
his time for a few months. 1t is a
pleasure to see the young men ST
Elackfoot engaging in business and
we wish them every success in their
rev location.

No Election Held Monday Night.

The election of officers of the
Commercial club, called for last Mon
day evening was not held owing to
a lack of attendance on the part of
the members of the organization. In
terest in the club has not been as
great as the residents of Blackfoot
might desire. There is a feeling a.
mong some that the club has been
operated from the start, too much
for the advantage of certain few
and this feeling evidently exists at
the present time, judging from the
lack of interest in the proposed ell
ection. This is deplorable state of
affairs for the city, as commercial
club is it's back bone, mouth piece
and life. President Thomas has
signified his intention of making a
personal canvass among the memb-
ers in an effort to increase inter-
est, and as attendance grows, the
present officers will tender their
designations and the vacancies fill
ed by appointment.

former had been confirmed by the

four years. The Endorsement of the
Eastern Idaho Press club, with but
few exceptions, one of which was tha
of the Idaho Republican, cut quite
a figure in the re-appointment of
Mr. Keifer. Mr.. Keifer has used the
members of the press in most hon
orable manner during his term of Of
flee and all, from President James
II Wallis, down, have shown their ap-
probation of his unbiased distribu-
ton of patronage, by giving him a

An effort was made by a few per-
sons to secure a successor to Mr..
Keifer but it had no weight.

HAMMOCK INDIANS WAR
DANCE SONGS "CANNED'

Washington, Jan. 9.-Three graph
ophone records of rare value have
been received by First Assistant
Commissioner Abbott of the bureau
OF Indian affairs. These records
contain genuine reproductions of the
war dance songs Of the Bannock In
dians of Idaho, and were made by
Ralph W. Dixie, an Indian rancher
of the Fort Hall reservation.
Dixie said Commissioner Alb
bott, went to one of the dances
and made the records unbeknown to
the participants. Indians as a rule
are somewhat superstitious about
such matters, and it would have beer
almost impossible o. get them to
carry ON their dances for canning
purposes"

occupy the house recently vacated
by Charles L. Hart on South Shilling

Eldro, a young man of three months.
While in the city Mrs. Reed, had the
picture of her son taken inadress that
is forty years old and which hasfigur.

To the writer the story of the little

we have been intimately acquainted
with several of the persons wearing
it. and that at great distance from
where it was made. Mrs. n. A. Just
presented the dress to Mrs. Fred s..
Stevens, her girlhood friend, when
the latter's first baby was born. Fred
Stevens, now dead, wore the DRESS
when he was a little baby, and we
were given our first story of Idaho,
by Fred Stevens, when he and
other gentlemen, were in Findlay,
Ohio with al herd of horses twenty
years ago. The dress was worn by
Judge J. M. Stevens, on the Sixth
district bench today, and last by
young Eldro Reed, boy whose
advent into the world was met with
as much joy by all of the large circle
of friends of the Just family as che
coming of a young prince.
