The Examiner has long be-
lleved that Montpelier Is en-
titled to free express delivery
and there is no doubt but
what it could be secured If
the Commercial club would
take the matter up with prop
er officials of the express com
pany. We know one thing.
if there we're two railroads
running into Montpelier and
different express companies
were operating on the two
roads, we would have had free
delivery long ago. We know
this from experience in two
other towns in which we have
lived, neither of which vas
any larger than Montpelier.
In both of those towns the
express companies establish
ed free delivery of their own
accord, and we doubt if the
volume of business done by
both companies was as large
IN either town as that done
BY the Pacific express com
pany at this point. The ac.
commodation is worth trying
for and we would like to see
the Commercial club make an
effort to have free delivery
established here.

Judge Bulge was Busy
the Past Week

Judge Bulge returned Wednesday
from a trip to Salt Lake and Pocatel-
To-. While in the latter city he was
called upon to assist in settling the
differences between the water COM
pany and the city. The Judge had
previously issued an injunction prGs
hfbiting the manager of the water
company from diverting any water
from the company's mains. but az
there were still serious differences ex-
listing between the city and the com
pany, the former called upon the
court to assist in adjusting them.
After II lengthy conference an agree
ment was reached whereby a new
manager was named for the water
company who will work in eoniunc-
tion with a man selected to represent
the city. Other terms were agreed
upon, whereby 1t is believed that
there will no longer be a water famine,
such as had existed in Pocatello dur
ing the past month.
Before going to Salt Lake Judge
Bulge, in company with Vim. L.
Rich and Senator Pugmire, inspected
the work that has been done this
year on the Paris Franklin wagon
road. The Judge states that the dug
way down the west side of the divide
is in excellent condition and that an
ordinary team can easily pull a 1000
pound load up any portion Of the
grade. From the top of the divide an
excellent view can be obtained of
Cache, Mink and Marsh valleys.
There is some very pretty scenery all
along this road, which shortens the
drive just about one-half between this
valley and Logan. The drive can
now easily be made to Preston and
Franklin in from seven to eight
hours.
Judge Bulge will open the fall term
of court in Pocatello on Sept IL.

AS the new superintendent
bill, which passed congress,
gives Idaho an additional
congressman, we presume
that it will be necessary to
elect both of them from sat
large" next year. or until the
legislature apportions the
state into two congressional
districts. Naturally one con-
gresham should come from
the southern and the other
from the northern portion Of
the state, but under our di-
rect primary system of nom
mating candidates, it is pos
slble for two northern men or.
two southern men to be nom
mated.
InaC congressman French.
who halls from the north. will
be renomlnated. there isn't
any doubt. But who the
other nominee will be on the
republican ticket, is a matter
OF conjecture at this time.
We have heard the names of
Addison T. Smith, Gov-
ernor Brady and John L.
Morrison mentioned in con-
connection with the congress
slonal nomination. Should
no other candidate appear in
the north against French, we
anticipate that the contest
would be quite lively between
the three men mentioned
above. AS it is only eleven
short months from now until
the primary election, candi-
dates will soon begin to SHE
their castors into the political
ring.
