Hughes, Jr., United States Senator
from Colorado, died at his home
here today after long illness. Death
was due to a general breakdown.

islands in an endeavor to regain his
health, but no improvement resulted.
Since his return to this city, two
months ago, the senator had been
confined to his bed most of the time.

POCATELLO COMMERCIAL CLUB

At a regular annual meeting of the
members of the Pocatello Commercial
club in the club rooms in the Y. M.
G. A. Building last night, the above
nominations for positions as members
of a new board of governors were
elected by unanimus vote. Retiring

and fill the vacancies and elect Off
GERS
President Young instructed the re-
tiring secretary last night to call the
new and old board together at 8
o'clock this evening.
Last nights meeting was brief. A
message from the Boise Commercial
club, inviting Pocatello to join in
sending an exhibit to the Western
Land Products Exposition at Omaha
on January Is to 2S, was read, and
laid on the table, it being the opinion
of the local club that it will be i'm
possible to gather creditable exhibit
in such short time at this season
of the year.
The auditing committee reported
that the books of secretary Molinelli
balanced, but recommended that a
new system of bookkeeping be
adopted.

Sunday, and the remains were inter-
red in the cemetery at Yuma.
Mr.. and Mrs. MCLEAN had been
married only about year and had
just recently moved into new house
they had built on their farm. This
untimely death comes as a great
blow to Mr.. MCLEAN, and he has the
sincere sympathy of a large circle
of friends.

JUDGE FACKRELL OPENS AN OF
FICE

X. S. Fackrell, who for the past
six years has filled the position of
judge of probate, will open an office
in the State Bank Building, at the
corner of Pacific and Main, and will
practice law.
Many of our readers will remem-
Der that he sought the judgeship in
the campaign of 1904 so that he
might have an opportunity to study
the law and be in touch with legal
work, and during his three terms in
that position he has studied and
been admitted to the bar. His
friends will be glad to observe that
he is following out the plans made
at that time, and he will appreciate
having their legal business.

"One could put up with the writer's
cold-blooded assumption that the Ida
no potato is the equal of the Colorado
potato. Colorado is used to having
other products claimed as "just as
good" substitutes. For years melon
growers in all parts Of the country
have been fooling the public with
cantaloupes "just as good" as the
Rocky Ford kind. California apple
growers have stopped to the subter-
fuge of shipping their inferior apples
in Colorado-marked boxes, and hav-
ing printed pictures of Colorado or
chards as their own. 1t is not sur
prising that the Idaho potato growers
should try to boost their inferior
spuds over the shoulders of the pre-
mier spuds Of Colorado, which long
ago established their claim as the
finest favored in the world-but to
add insult to injury by putting the
potato forward as a breakfast food is
more than any civilized community
can stand. 1t marks Idaho as an
abode of savagery-a frontier stop

THE DEMONSTRATION TRAIN

The Demonstration and Lecture
Train is due in Blackfoot on Satur-
day, January 14th, at 4.3O, and will
remain for one hour. 1t will come
In from the south, and people are ex-
pected to board the train and take
seats Immediately on its arrival at
the depot.
When the hour has been spent in
lectures and instruction, the train
will make quick run to Shelley,
where it will make a similar stop,
and then to Idaho Falls.
Owing to the necessity of accom-
modating their use of track to either
trains on the main line, it is possible
the train may arrive earlier or later
than the hour mentioned, and people
are requested to be on hand early
and have patience with delays If
there are any, as it is impossible to
carry out the schedule unless every
thing else is running on time.
On Sunday afternoon at 1855 the
train will return and go to Pingree
for half an hour, arriving there at
4.25. and reaching Aberdeen at $50
p. m. 1t will remain 80 minutes at
Aberdeen, and return to Blackfoot at
about Z, on their way to Buhl.

A MEETINGLESS MEET

Last Saturday was the day set
for the convention of the allied press
clubs of Idaho at Boise, and Gov
ernor Hawley was booked to address
the editors at the opening session
at ten o'clock in the morning.
At just ten o'clock Mr.. Hawley
walked into the room in company
with one editor, and found nobody
there but the janitor The Governor
laughed and went back to the state
house.
Later in the day the editors as
sembled and telephoned to ask If
they might return the Governors
call, he fixing the time. To this he
responded cheerfully, and when the
time came they filed into the execu-
tive Office, taking all the standing
room. He shook hands with each
one as he entered, and then looking
around at the pack he said: Have
seats, boys, we'll bring in some
chairs!"
They all declared they wanted to
stand, and the salesman said Gov
stand, and the spokesman said: Gov
ernor, we just wanted to greet you
and apologize for not keeping our
appointment with you this morning,
and to say also that although we are
not all Democrats, we are all good
loyal Idahoans, and no matter what
happens during your administration
we will all stand at your back
The Governor responded: well,
that's very nice of you boys. am
sure I appreciate this visit. AS to
your being absent from roll call this
morning, l have been told that Joel
Priest was in charge of the editorial
party last night, and since learned
that understood perfectly why there
was only one or two of the faithful
on hand this morning. However, if
you had been there had no particu-
lar message to present except to greet
you and tell you to take possession
of the town and anything you want,
but even that would be superfluous,
for anybody that knows the Idaho
editors knows they would do that
anyhow"

SEASON TICKETS FOR THE ROW.
DON RECITALS

Inasmuch as there seems to be
some misunderstanding concerning
the season tickets for the series of
recitals which begin in the Methodist
Church Monday night, January %,
Mr. Rowdon makes the following
statement.
These tickets, for the entire series
of five concerts, are on sale at Hayes
store, at the Pioneer drug store and
at the Modern pharmacy on Bridge
street, at one dollar each.
"The tickets are transferable and
may be used for each of the con-
certs, or for five people to attend
one concert, or in any way that seems
desirable so long as the ticket lasts"
The low price placed on these
tickets makes it possible for all to
attend each concert, and as Mr.. Row.
don has made SO many warm friends
by his efforts in behalf of music here,
it is expected that the concerts will
be very largely attended.
The season tickets will be on sale
up to the afternoon of the first con-
cert and at the Church on that night;
after that there will be no further
sale of the season tickets, but an
admission of SO cents will be charged
for tickets purchased for any of the
subsequent concerts.

TWIN FALLS POTATOES FOR
BREAKFAST
Pesident Taft and Forty Governors
Sit Down to Idaho Spuds
Christmas Morning

Twin Falls started something when
through the secretary of it's CONNER
cial club, 1t sent box of potatoes
grown upon the greatest irrigated
tract in the world to the President of
the United States, and to each of the
governors of the forty-seven states in
the Union, said spuds to be eaten for
breakfast, Christmas morning.
President Taft ate his, and in a
personal letter to Secretary R. w.
Spangler written in his own hand,
pronounced them in accordance with
specifications. Most of the governors
did the same, and responded to the
secretary's letter, thanking him for
his generous beneficence. A few re-
monstrated against the claim con-
tanned in the accompanying letter that
Idaho potatoes were the best in the
world-because there are certain Sec
tions intheir own territories which
are endeavoring to maintain repu-
tation for raising potatoes.
But 1t remained for the green-eyed
editorial writer of the Denver Repub-
lican to distinguish himself by a
shudder of asthetic revulsion against
the idea of eating potatoes for break
fast. He may have been inspired by
a jealous desire to protect the Colo
RADIO potato from encroachments of
the Idaho spud, but even in doing SO
he admitted by implication the def
cincies of the Colorado product as a
breakfast delicacy.
His protest is as follows.

Potatoes for Breakfast

Zone of the most hopeful signs of
the advancement of man has been the
gradual decline of the potato as a
breakfast food. The tuber has made
a stubborn fight, but civilization has
won steadily, and today the potato
at the breakfast table is about as
much out of place as man in even
ing dress at that meal.
"Out in Twin Falls, Idaho, how
ever, there Is an organization of saw
ages that masquerades under the
name of the Twin Falls Commercial
club. 1t is presided over by be-
nighted son of the wilderness named
Spangler, who has not only tried to
fitch the glory of the Colorado potato
as the finest in the world, but has
had the exceeding bad taste to send
boxes of Idaho spuds to the President
OF the United States and the governor
of Missouri-for breakfast, mind you,
for breakfast. Here Is the Windup or
this heathen's letter to Governor Had
ley of Missouri:
"A baked Idaho potato should be
carefully broken--not cut small
piece of butter and pepper and salt
put on the half and then, after the
first forkful is eaten, little cream
added. Use the potato skin as cup,
and eat from it. You will find the
Idaho potato trife sweet and 1t
has a flavor peculiarly its own.
with best wishes for a success
full Christmas breakfast, | beg to re-
main, your very truly,
Robert w. Spangler,
Secretary

MACADAMIZE SANDY ROAD
Engineers Submit Their Estimates

w. "A. Frank, of Idaho Falls, A. E.
Christensen, of Shelley, and O. E.
Peterson, of Blackfoot, civil and min
ing engineers, were requested by
Hon. P. G.. Johnston to make and
prepare an estimate on the cost of
preparing a good road through the
sand belt between Blackfoot and Ross
Fork, for which bill will be present
ed at the next session of the legis-
lature.
After carefully going over the
ground and studying the nature of
the difficulties to be surmounted in
making a good road, the engineers
submitted the following estimate:
"We, the undersigned engineers of
Bingham county, hereby beg leave
to submit the report that we have
made thorough examination and
investigation in regard to the present
condition of the main wagon road
across the heavy sands between
Blackfoot and Ross Fork with view
to estimating the cost of perman-
ent improvement in the condition of
the same, said road at the present
time being in an almost impossible
condition. In our opinion a substan-
tial macadamized highway for dis
tance of five miles is the only per-
manent and feasible solution of the
difficulty, necessitating little, If any,
repairs for many years to come. For
such a road eight feet wide, with
turnouts every quarter of mile, we
estimate the cost of construction at
5 cents per linear foot, $1,000 per
mile, $14.520 for the entire piece
of roadway.
Said road would have an under
filling of rock or stone covered with
clay, the whole roadbed to be about
one foot thick at the center, tapering
down to eight inches at the outer
edges. We think such a roadway to
be the only kind which would insure
permanent satisfaction.
Very respectfully submitted,
"W. A. FRANK,

An estimate was also made on a
roadway eighteen feet wide which
would cost in the neighborhood of
81 per linear foot, or about $26,040
for the five mi1oe

FROM SCHOOL TO COURT

Two boys were fighting on the
school grounds when the father of

one of them, not his boy, down with
his fist. The parents of the boy
lodged complaint against him for
assault, and the case was being heard
