Most loud takers don't say much.
Times are never as hard as they
seem to be in July and August
No man ever had job that suited
him so well that he didn't abuse some

Some fools are saved from hurried
parting with their money by being

Nearly everyone thinks that if he

take him in partnership, and that he
wouldn't have as hard a time as other

VANCE OF LABOR DAY
ISSUED

In accordance with custom, Cover
nor Hawley has issued proclamation
designating Monday, September a,
1911. as Labor Day. Great prepare
tions are being made for the obser-
vance of the day by the different la
Dor organizations in the city, and 1T
is declared that the celebration will
eclipse any similar event which has
ever taken place in Boise. The gov
ernor's proclamation is as follows:
In compliance with the law of the
state of Idaho which designates the
first Monday in September as legal
holiday dedicated to labor, | request
that all our people join on Monday,
September 4, 1911, in appropriate OBJ
servance, showing the respect and
esteem in which those are held whose
toll is the basis of our civilization
and whose handiwork in every field of
human endeavor has conquered the
forces of nature and made the desert
bloom with farms and cities.
"The progress of the world may
be marked by the increasing homage
paid to labor and the realization Of
the fact that in times past it has been
denied it's proper share in the enjoy
ment of the comforts and even the ne
cessities of life. Today labor ques-
tions are foremost in the minds OF
statesmen of all countries and it is
meet and proper that one day in each
year be given over to proper recogni-
ton the services of those who toll
Sin witness whereof, l have here
unto set my hand and caused to be

Idaho, this 18th day of August, in
the year Of our Lord One thousand

A JOKE ON THE "WETs"

Last week Ada county had an IL
Mstration of one disadvantage of be-
ing wet" The Methodist confer
ence in annual session at Caldwell
was considering the question of where
to locate a Methodist university for
the intermountain country, and the
ministers from Boise presented an in
vitation to locate it in the suburbs of
the capital CITY, 1t meant an ex-
penditure of some 100000 to begin
with, and additions from, year to year.
until it became great institution.
Two sites were offered for them to
choose from, and a committee of 200
preachers went over to Boise to look
into the matter. They formulated
resolutions recommending the accept
ance of one of the sites, and outlining
the procedure by which the enter
prise should be launched right away.
But 10! A storm arose in the con-
vention. Some fellows with tongues
of fire set the conference ablaze with
speeches akin to those made in the
legislature last winter about appro-
priations for schools in wet territory
Territory where they license the
acknowledged enemy of youth-and
the resolution went down in defeat,
those having the greatest following
saying. There are other places
where we can locate our university,
and when we find county that re-
fuses to be a partner. in the saloon
business county whose Inhabitants
are right on this question and
who steadfastly refuse to be
wrong-a county and town with
natural advantages added to moral
worth, then We can lay the founda-
tions of the school which let us hope
shall witness the passing of this relic
of barbarism.'

DRIVE 10000 ELK ACROSS WYO-
MING
Herds i'm jackson Hole to be Moved
Over to the Big Horn Mount
ain Country

Sheridan, Wyo., August 19.-Ten
thousand head of elk trekking across
the state of Wyoming, guarded and
guided by United States cavalry and
many cowboys, ranchmen and sheep
herders, is the unique spectacle which
will be seen between now and winter
| If the plans of the state officials who
have the project in charge are car
lied out.
The elk are at present in the jack
son Hole country, in the extreme
western part of the state. 1t is the
intention of the officials to remove
them to the Big Horn mountains,
lust west of Sheridan, and in the ex-
IRENE northern portion of the state.
1t is estimated that fully $4,000
head of elk winter every year in the
Hole and they simply eat the ranch
men out of house and home.
The elk herd has finally become so
great menace that the entire west
ern portion of the state took up arms
in an effort to save the ranches and
farms, as we'll as the sheep and cattle.
The national government at the
last session of congress appropriated
$4,000 for the care and preserva-
ton of the elk in Wyoming.
In northern Wyoming are the Big
Horn mountains, stretching one
hundred miles or more from north
to south. 1t is an ideal country for
elk and other big game.
The United States government will
be asked to permit 1000 cavalrymen
from Fort Russell at Cheyenne and
Fort McKensie at Sheridan to take
part in the great drive. And to this
large force will be added 1000 cow
boys, ranchmen, sheep herders and
Others, total force of 1000 mounted
men.

SHEEP MEN JUBILANT
Death of Wool Bill Pleasing News
to the Flockmasters all
Over Idaho

Following Immediately on the heels,
of President Taft's veto of the wool
tariff bill and the failure of an at
empt by the Democrats and Insurgeht
Republicans in the house to pass the
measure over the presidents veto,
$4,000 head of Bannock county lambs
were sold by Bicknell & Gemmell,
the sheep kings of Bannock county,
to firm in Bull and to the Wool
Livestock company of Spencer Twelve
thousand will be shipped to Spencer
next week, and 5000 to Bull. The
price agreed upon was 81 per head
of yearling ewes. A deal for the
sale of these sheep has been pending
for the past 20 days, but neither of
the intending purchasers cared to
take a chance while the wool bill
was pending. Had it not been vetoed
by the president, or had it been pass
ed over the presidents veto, the stiles
would not have been contaminated.
Mr.. Gemmell, of the Bicknell Il
Gemmell firm, in conversation with
a Pocatello Tribune reporter, admit
ted that he been practically sweating
blood for the past month. Had the
wool bill become law" he said, sit
would have knocked the sheepmen
of this country out of business"
Mr.. Bicknell went to Spencer to
conclude the details of the transfer.
The sheep sold are now on the
summer range of the firm in this
county and will be shipped from Po-
catello and Bancroft next week.
Bicknell & Gemmell sold their
spring wool clip to a Boston firm
through William Jackson of st. Louis
at price said to be II cents.
