LOVE THAT FAILED.

For ten long but blissful years
they had walked along the path Of
love; but as yet the lovesick youth
had never mentioned about their
getting married. Courtship is very
charming, but when there does not
seem to be altar-rails at the end of
it girls naturally begin to lose inter
est in the game. Anyhow, Jane
thought it time that the marriage
day was fixed, so she threw out a
gentle hint to her lover by way of
encouraging him. That, she thought,
was all the dear fellow wanted.
Nathaniel" she whispered, coy
ly, "they're saying we're going to be
married soon."
"Are they, though" answered the
stolid swain. ''What a jolly sell it'll
be for them when they learn we
amt"

Isabel DoingS.

The Isabel cornet band met for
practice Monday night and judg-
ing from the melody that was
waited by the breeze the boys are
getting along famously.
Charles Schmadecke arrived from
Sedalia, Ind, Friday night to go
on his homestead i'll 2I-I7-I8.
Mr.. Schmadecke brought : a car
load of farm implements, some
horses and cattle and will go at
the farming business right.
D. A. Sorrels arrived in town
the last of the week and secured a
place in the offices of the Central
Lumber Co., where he will do har-
ness repair work and have charge
of their harness department. This
has long been needed in town and
there is no doubt but that he will
have a good business here.
c. A. Sparks received notice
from the state board of health that
the next examination for licensed
embalmers will be held at Pierre
June 9th and That school of in
struction would precede the meet
ing. Mr.. Sparks is licensed en-
balner in Iowa but as this state
does not recognize the work Of
other states it is necessary for
those practicing here to take this
examination no matter how well
qualified they may be. Mr..
Sparks practiced for eight years in
Iowa and will take the examina-
ton and take up the work here.
He is living on his homestead in
1922.
1t was fitting and proper that the
first wedding solemnized in Isabel
should be that of one of the first
settlers, E. F. O'Toole. The hap
py event occurred on Sunday,
April 80, at the home of VIM.
WEIGH. by Rev. Father Vogel, OF
Cheyenne Agency. The fortunate
lady was Miss Henrietta Kelly of
Emmetsburg, Iowa. Miss Kelly
has been here for some time and
has made host of friends by her
jolly good nature and pleasing
ways. She took a homestead adj
joining the town on the north and
the happy couple will make their
home on it in the cosy cottage
that she had erected there. Mr.,
O'Toole is one of the substantial
business men of town who has been
identified with it from the first
coming here in July of last year.

CEMENT WALKS
ARE BEING LAID

The construction of cement side
walks, recently ordered by the
council, is now well under way.
The property owners on Sonth
Ninth street we're the first to start
he good work and up to date some
hing like 1900 feet of cement walks
rave been put in on this street. By
he end Of next week new walks will
have been constructed on this street,
from Main street south to the city
limits. Walks are also being con-
structed on North Ninth and mater
ial is on the ground for the con-
struction of about $50 feet of walk
on Lincoln Avenue.
A few property owners have
signlfied their intentions of letting
the city construct the walks in front
of their property. As soon as the
time has lapsed for which property
owners were gwen to do this work,
the city will begin the construction
as walks and continue the work as
long as the weather will permit.
It will hardly be possible to get
down all of the walks ordered this
year, but a good atrart will have
been made and next year we will no
doubt see the construction of cement
walks throughout the entire resi-
dence portion of the city.

COUNTY FAIR POST
PONED UNTIL OCT,

At recent meeting of the direct
ors of the Bear Lake Fair Associa-
ton it was decided TO postpone the
fair at Paris from Sept. 26 to % to
Oct. Is to 30. The change was
made for two reasons. One is that
the September dates conflict with
the races at Logan and the directors
found that it would be impossible
to get any good entries for the
races. By changing the dates
number of the horses which will be
here next week will also be at Paris.
The directors also concluded that,
with good weather in October, there
would be larger attendance at the
fair as the farmers would mostly
have their fall work done.
Another exhibit building is being
erected just north of the grand stand,
two more we'll are being put down
and other improvements are being
made about the grounds.
Prof. Eddings, principal of the
practical school agriculture at Mos.
COW, has been chosen as judge OF
live stock. That Mr.. Eddings is q
capable man is evidenced by th'
fact that he has been selected tC
Judge the live stock at the Montana
state fair. Prof. Eddings has noti
fed the directors that the schoo
will have an exhibit at the fair.
The premium list for the fair will
be out in about two weeks and th'
people will then be better able Il
determine in which classes they will
want to make exhibits.

DRY FARMING
IS SUCCESSFUL

Idaho Falls, Aug. 21-That dry
farming methods when properly fol-
lowed, are successful has just been
demonstrated by Professors Briggs,
Kearney and Shantz, of the depart
ment of agriculture, who in behalf
OF the department., have completed
an investigation of the dry farms in
this valley. Professor Briggs, be-
fore leaving this city, stated that in
all of the travels of the committee
it has not seen either irrigated or
non-lrrigated farming which pro-
duced better results than were to be
found on the dry farms here, in the
face of the fact that the year has
been one of severe drought.
The Woodsmansee and Webster
Farm of 5000 acres is producing
24o6 acres of Turkey Red wheat,
that will average not less than 4C
bushels when threshed. This result
is obtained under ry-farming till
age methods, and the use of 81
pounds of seed to the acre.
Mr.. G. II. Woodemansee of Rex
burg, one of the owners of thu
ranch, has been invited to address
The Sixth International Dry-Farm
ing Congress to be held in Colorado
Springs, October Is to 20, explain
ing the methods, both of tillage ant
business, utilized on the great rancl
of this company. The compan,
will also make an exhibit at the ex
position held In connection with tn
Congress. Mr.. Woodsnansee

DEMOCRATIC

OF course it cannot be claimed
with any assurance of certainty that
all the increases in the Republican
column will be actual Republican
gains at the next election but there
will be a few instances where these
new districts go Democratic, or
where the additional congressman,
if elected at large, are Democrats.
The great bulk of these gains will
be actual Republican gains, thereby
making it more difficult for the
Democrats to carry the next house
than if the reapportionment bill had
been delayed.
In the foregoing, New Mexico
aud Arizona are not included, bul
wnen admitted, with one member
each, they will probably offset eacl
= her.

REPUBLICANS GAIN
BY The new LAW

Washington, Aug. l9-It is the
opinion of good constitutional law
yers in congress that representation
in the national congress next year
will be based upon the new congress
sional apportionment, and not upon
the present representation in con-
gress. In other words, states that
gain in membership In the next
house under the provisions of the
new law, will have greater repre-
sentatIon at the national convention
of 1912 than they had in the con-
vention of sos.
As each state sends two delegates
for each member of It's congression-
al delegation, each state which will
have an increased representation in
the next congress will have double
that increase in convention.
So far as the west is concerned,
California will be represented III
the coming conventions by 26 dele
gates instead of 90; Washington
will have 4 instead of 10; Oregon
10 instead of s; Idaho instead of
g.; Montana the same and Colorado
! will have l2 instead of 10.
This means that the west will be
bigger factor in the national con-
ventions of 1912 than in any pre-
vious conventions, and the west
probably will have 1t in its power,
if 1t unites, to name the preslden-
tial nominee for each party.
While all sorts of claims are be.
ing made, an analysis of the reap
portionment authorized by congress
shows conclusiVely that the gains
in representation in the house favor
the Republicans instead of the
Democrats, the majority of the in.
creases being made in states that are
normally Republican.
While it cannot be figured out in
advance how the new districts will
. go at the next election, 1t can bt
{ demonstrated that it will be more
. difficult for the Democrats to carry
the next house than it was to carry
, the last congressional election
The gains made under the reappor
tIonment bill are shown in the fol
lowing table, the first column con
/ tanning the names of the states nor
! mally Republican, the second state
normally Democratic:

IMPORTANT DECISION
BY JUDGE WALTERS

Judge Walters of the Fourth dis
trict, recently announced decision
in case of far.reaGhing Importance
and which is without parallel in the
history of litigation in this state.
The case concerned was entitled
Frank Marshall VIZ. the Niagara
Orchard company, and it appeared
that the Niagara Orchard company
were the owners of certain tract
of land on the Snake River. near
Buhl, upon which is situated huge
spring capable of developing sever
al thousand horse power. Marshall
had made application with the state
engineers office to secure said
spring as a power site and the de.
fendent company contested his
right in this regard on the ground
that inasmuch as the spring was 10
Gated within their land that thu
state engineer had no authority tt
grant permit and contended fur
ther that water appropriations coul,
only be made on the nnapproprlat
ed public domain and not upon pri
yAte lands.

EVERYTHING READY FOR
THE RACES NEXT WEEK
The Track is in Tip Top Condition and Good
String of Fast Horses Entered Will be Some
Exciting Contests--Races Start Aug. %

Leslie Strong informs us that
everything is in readiness for the
four-days race meet, beginning next
Monday. The track is in the pink
of condition and the horsemen, who
are here, declare it is the best half.
mile track in the inter.mountain
country. Practically all the horses
entered for the races are here and
the balance will be here in the morn
ing.
John McCabe, and old-time race
horse man from Illinois, ls here to
officiate as starter. Yesterday Mr..
Strong was not able to announce
who the judges would be, as he was
waiting to hear from an Idaho Falls
man, whom he had requested to act
as one of the judges.
All of the merchants of Montpe-
lier have announced their intentions
of closing their places of business
each afternoon during the races from
l until 4:aO O'Clock. This will give
everybody an opportunity to go out
and "bet their money on the win
ming hoss." The attendance from
the country and surrounding towns
promises to be good, and from the
string of horses that have been en-
tered there is no question but what
some of the best races ever seen In
Montpelier will be pulled off next
week.
College Maid, the guideless won
der, who was the star attraction two
years ago, will be driven in the free
for all event on the 29th.
