CROPS WILL PAY.
idaho VIII Make Big Money Out
of Soil Products This Year.

Mr.. and Mrs. Orrin T. Curtis drove
up from Picabo Tuesday and returned
home Wednesday.
Mr.. Curtis is just returning from .
three-months trip through Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho, and he says
that Idaho seems much more prosper
Gus than either, although there may be
bigger business done in Oregon becaus e
of the new railroads building and new
regions opened.
Idaho beats both States for crops, as
we are to have big crops in both
orchard and field.
Mr.. Curtis says that those farmers
that hang on to their hay and grain
and potatoes are bound to make a big
profit. The potato crop is short ali
over the Middle West, and even in Col
orado, Kansas and Nebraska the crop
will not exceed one-half of normal be-
cause of the drought. In Oregon all
this spring and until the new CROP
came in potatoes sold at $1OO a ton.
In many localities they were not TO be
had at any price
The government reports the oats
crop about 36 per cent below normal,
and as there are none left over the
price next spring will infallibly go to
2 one-half-to cents.
Hay in the stack is now selling atsS5.
Before fall it will sell at Sc to $3.50,
and by next spring no one can foretell
how high it will be. Outside of Idaho
the crop is short, and there does not
seem to be one-eighth enough to sup
ply the demand. HALEY Times.

the only probable cause that can pre-
vent the completion of the road this
fall The truly marvellous wheat, oats
and hay crop on the Prairie, the best
of which is at the far end of the Prai-
rie, near or beyond the terminus of the
line, makes a fine business asset for
railroad, and it may be expected that
no effort will be spared to get clear
through in time to move this seasons
crop.
The immense stores of material now
in the Richfeld yards will soon be TAX
en- out for distribution, and tlen the
road will become a reality.
All the right of way options on the
Prairie have been paid up and deeds
taken therefor, and the same is to be
done on the Richfield tract within the
next few days.

Montana is certainly great state.
Helena is one of the most beautiful
cities in the west, and people should
not allow themselves to think that
the only thrngs that Butte possesses
are mines and smelters, for the city
has other resources and attractions that
make their mines and smelters pale in
to insignificance. 1t is great and
growing city, and there are many
beautiful homes being built there now,
with one of the best country clubs in
the west.

looks of town as much as plenty of
good shade trees and nice lawns, and
the citizens are taking great deal of
pride in these things in Richfeld and
where less than 18 months ago, there
was not shade tree growing inside of
the city limits. or a spear of tame
grass to be seen, there are now dozen
or more nice lawns and hundreds of
trees growing.
Another year there will be irrigation
bitches all over the town which will
enable our citizens to better take care
of trees and several of them have ord
ers now in for trees for fall delivery
and many others will order for fall de-
livery.
Let the good work go on and in a
few years we will have one of the most
beautiful spots in which to live, that
there is in all Idaho.

WENDELL, IDAHO, July 24th., 1911.
Mr.. T. B. Brush,
Richfield, Idaho.
Dear Sir: have been instructed by
the Board of Directors of the Lincoln
County Fair to ask you to become an
honorary member of the Board to
represent Richfield and tributary terri
tory. In case you will be able to aid
us in this way we will expect you to
encourage the sending of products for
display and urge the attendance of
people from your neighborhood and
answer any necessary correspondence.
Wendell is doing its best to make
this fair great success this year and
we cannot do this without the support
of everybody in the County and we ask
this support because we expect to aid
the Fair at some other pla,e next year.
Very truly yours,

of disqualifying him from becoming q
candidate for Governor, or any other
office, if he so desires; and, if elected,
he may resign his position as a Justice
of the Supreme Court before qualify
ing to the Office for which he was
elected.
Conditions have changed since l was
a candidate for Governor, in this re-
spect; At that time, had any compli-
cation arisen in any way involving my
candidacy, l would have been disquali-
fed to sit in judgment on questions
in any way affecting my candidacy;
and it would have left the settlement
of any such questions to my two as
sociates. Since that time, however,
the Legislature has wisely provided
that in case of the disability of any
Justice of the Supreme Court to act in
his official capacity, the other two
members of the Court may call in any
District Judge of the State; which
would leave full Bench to pass on all
questions coming before the Court,
thus avoiding the question that might
have arisen in any case, had a legal
question come before the Court involv-
ng my candidacy, as in that case one
Of the Justices might have taken one
view of the question and the other a
directly opposite view; hence there
could be no decision of the question.
Yours very truly,
C. O. STOCKSLAGER.

SHOSHONE, July 31.-Sherif Zug
made another big haul during the past
week in the capture of Oscar Mckinley
and Ed Greenstead, noted horse rust
lers who have been operating in Idaho,
Nevada and Colorado, during the past
few years. The sheriff Of Laramie
County, COL, arrived here today after
Mckinley and Greenstead, for whose
arrest he offered $3.50 reward. Sheriff
Zug, however, had turned Mckinley
over to the sheriff of Oneida county,
this state, where he is wanted for
horse stealing, so Greenstead alone
was sent back to Colorado.
After Sheriff Zug had learned that
band of rustlers were operating in the
country east of here, he went to
Rupert to investigate the matter and
there three or four men on several oc-
casions rode to an abandoned cabin
about two miles from Rupert and
spent the night. 1t was also noticed
that they always brought different
horses with them when they came.
Investigation satisfied the sheriff
and his deputies that two of these men
were the above nauled parties wanted
in Colorado. Plans were effected to
capture these mel at the cabin, but
upon arrival of the sheriff trace of on
ly one man, (ireenstead, could be
found. He had headed across Snake
river over into the mountains of Cassia
county with three horses

Horse Rustlers In the Tolls
Sheriff Zug Takes In Two Bad Men, Wanted In Other
States Well as In Idaho, for Wholesale Live
Stock Thefts--One Sent to Colorado

Sheriff Zug and three deputies fol-
lowed the trail, riding day and night,
and finally capturing Greenstead as he
rode away from a cabin belonging to
Sam CotrolI. Men riding the range in
this section told the sheriff that the
rustlers had their rendezvous in draw
on the side of a mountain in a asp
grove. The place was completely hid
den from view and afforded excellent
grazing ground besides abundance of
running water. 1t was learned that
they had as high as 80 and 40 head of
horses and mules here at times in hid
ing.
Upon arrival of the sheriff, however,
the place was abandoned and it is
thought the stock had been taken by
part of the gang over into Nevada.
While no horses had been reported
to Sheriff Zug as missing in Lincoln
county, he is satisfied that the gang
were planning to make cleanup in
the near future which the timely ar
rest of Mckinley and Greenstead
averted
The arrest of Mckinley was affected
at Rupert last Sunday, at which place
he went to hire livery team for
1rive to the Cotroll ranch, where
was captured. Mckinley
had been riding in another direction
and knew nothing of the arrest of
Ssreenstead at the time OF his arrest.

Judge C. o. Stockslager writes the
following letter to the Recorder, on a
very interesting subject. The argu-
ment is likely to have much weight in
the selection of governor next year.
Further reference to the letter is made
on page of this issue:
Editor The Recorder,
Richfeld, Idaho.
Your communication of July 26th
received. l note that you say with
reference to the qualification or,
rather, disqualification of Judge Ali
SHE to become candidate for Cover
nor at the next ensuing election. You
call nv attention to the constitutional
provision which provides that Justice
of the Supreme Court shall not hold
any other office during his term as such
Justice. You also call my attention
to the fact that four years ago, when
/ was Justice of the Supreme Court
of the State, | was candidate for
Governor on the Democratic ticket.
l did not think then, nor do think
now, that there was any disqualifi-
cation in the constitution or laws of
the State, or any reason whatever why
/ might not be candidate for Gov
ernor if so desired.
AS / construe the constitution, it
means that Justice of the Supreme
Court, while in active service, could
not hold any other Office within the
State; but it does not go to the extent

"THE FIRING LINE"

An announcement that will be receiv-
ed with pleasurable anticipation by
all theater-goers as we'll as book-lov-
ers, will be that of the presentation
here next Tuesday, of dramatized
version of Robert w. Chambers ia
nous novel, THE Firing Line"
There is no novelist of modern
times who enjoys the wide popular
ity of Nh Chambers. His celebrated
books, which also include The Fight
ing Chance" The Younger Set" and
THE Danger Mark" have been more
widely read than any other works of
fiction published in this country, and
are easily accorded by publishers the
highest rank among the best sell
ers." They have also reached, in Sc
rial form, millions of readers through
the columns of The Saturday Evening
Post
The dramatization Of The Firing
Line" is the work of Richard Walton
fully, co-author with David Belasco
of The Rose of the Rancho" and is
the first that has been accepted by
Mr. Chambers of any of his books,
though many versions have been sub
mitted to the author by well known
playwrights. but they have failed to
reach the standard demanded by him.
The many readers Of this absorb
ingly interesting novel will readily |
appreciate its dramatic possibilities. |
and, as a particularly high class pro |
duction will be presented. and a care
fully selected company of well known
metropolitan players is promised, the
event should prove to be one of nota-
bic Importance.
