State Fair Finallya Success-O'Neil
Fights Extradition at Vancouver
gorah For La Toilette.
Bannock county at its election held
rder the provisions of the state local
o,;on law voted dry again. This cleo
ION was held on the 18th day of Sep
.mber-one week after the Canyon
onnty election. During the campaign
that county it was freely charged
hat the local option law was being
reely violated at Pocatello and other
Aoints. There seems to have been
ome grounds for the charges as the
bounty commissioners have authorized
he sheriff of the county to expend
lao between now and January lst in
n effort to enforce the local option
aw This action on the part of the
bounty commissioners is very COM
nendable. The people of Bannock
bounty voted dry by over 300 majority.
The desire so strongly expressed at
he late eelction should be granted
hem. The officers of Bannock county
roinise to do everything in their pow
to suppress the illicit traffic in Ii
uor.
Ii is said that the petitions for ano-
her election are being generally sign
d in Ada county. 1t is predicted by
many that in case the election is held
hat the county will vote dry at this
lection. The drys claim that those
gho promised decent and even model
aloons have utterly failed to carry out
heir promises. On the other hand
he vets claim that the traffic is well
egulated in Ada county. They claim
urther that. the business interests of
be county demand that the saloon be
Maintained. There has been some talk
L another election in Washington
ounty. However the results in Can
on county dampened the ardor Of the
Washington county vets. Lemhi IS
PREPARING for an election. Two years
go she too went dry.
The state fair and rainmakers festi-
al held at Boise finally turned out a
reat success. The early part of last
Eeek looked bad for the fair. The
ainmakers had got too busy, Mr.. T.
(. Little charging them with working
lights. By the middle of the week
hey had got their breaks set and the
geather cleared up. By running the
air and carnival three days into this
Veek the association pulled out and
be people of the state were not dis
ppointed. The exhibits at the fair
we're great, II counties were repre-
ented. Canyon county was the BAN
Ter premium winning county. The
ther counties also did very well max
ng most excellent showing for the
tate generally. One bad feature Of
Tying to hold state fair is that the
ransportation facilities are so poor
hat it is impossible to get good ex'
ibit from north Idaho. The carnival
eature of the week was very good
came up to expectations and up &c
he promises made.
Robert N. Bell, state mining inspect
r. passed through Pocatello Saturday
i last week. While in the Gate City
e stated to the Tribune of that city
hat southeastern Idaho possesses on
y the best developed and highes
Erade phosphate deposits in the Unite'
states This, he says, is the Waterloo
pine near Montpelier, Bear LAX
bounty, which is owned by the Sal
francisco Chemical company III

esource of 100000 tons OF higI
trade calcium phosphate. In TN
anne neighborhood, in Bear Lax
ounty, says Mr.. Bell, the Utah Fer

ompany has a proven resource o
Ugh grade phosphate rock 20 per cen
