Book Pedlers swarm to Town

Either the Book selling business
must be very remunerative or else
Oakley offers amost fruitful field for
this kind of pursuit that so many
travellers of this order are coming
here, for within the last few weeks
this class Of persistent workers have
been most marked in this community
AS rule these parties have we'll
painted -word-pictures of their resp
ective volumes and many people are
induced to purchase these works who
will have as little use for them as a
gopher has for flying machine.
In many instances the books are
alright in their place but generally
the price is most exhorbitant and the
contents are serviceable mainly for
experts in special lines.
Books are most commendable bit
of property to have but careful sell
ection of them is as necessary for our
good as the care in selecting food,
clothing, and associates, both from a
moral and financial point Of view.
1t has come to our attention that
some of these Peddlers claim that
what their book contains is good for
the SAINTS to have from a doctrinal
point of view.
This kind of argument ought not
to be tolerated by the Latter-Day
Saints for no person, not a member
of the Latter-Day Saints Church, can
teach them their own doctrine as
we'll as the members themselves, and
if an impression is conveyed by the
solicitor himself that he is a member
of the l.. d. S. Church to persuade
people of that Church to purchase
he should receive a public idnignat-
ion that will be unproductive for his
business, otherwise if they represent
themselves and their business just
what it is they should receive the
treatment accorded any gentleman.

Sol Clark has bad accidett.

While on bis way to Abb bn,
Sol Clark, member OF the Oak
ley Silver Band, was thrown
from his buggy and sustainea a
broken leg. Archie Hale and
Sarah Bates were also in The
same rig and received some bruises
though not serious. /
The party attempted to pdss
another conveyance carrying
band members and arace followed
The team was going at good
speed when the driver turned
them quickly to one side to avoid
running into a wire fence and
overturned the buggy resulting
in the accident named.
Sol went on to Albion and was
brought home Wednesday. This
will likely put check on such
trips.

that immediate and rigid pro-

Last year the state, County,
Village and School tax totalled
$4.2O, so there will be very little
if any difference in the main to
the tax PAYERS of the District
this year.
The State and County rate
would have been $1.S5 had not

burden this year. 1t is not a
good policy to always deter pay

some day come due but under
the circumstance the County
Commissioners doubtless didjust
the proper thing, in view OF the
tact that this County will re-
double possibly 3 to 5 times in
the next 5 years.
In 1911 alone the Idaho SO.
Railroad increased the Assess.
ment $2,5OOoo for each mile or a
total of $55,OOOoo. The Short

later the Minidoka Project on
the south side will be taxable

The Raft River Valley is devel-

Within two years most of the
Oakley Project shall be taxable
too and it is safe to say that the
least we may expect will not be
below that quoted.
Every thing considered Cassia
will soon be one of the leading
Counties in the State in wealth

not be excelled.
Although Gov. Hawley's cash
value scheme has caused consider
able trouble and anxiety on the
part of many tax payers in the
State, it is a fact that this County
has come out about the same as
formerly. 1t is always a good
thing to keep quiet and the re-
suits are far better. Had the
papers of this County taken up
the weapon the people might
have been wrought up to a very
unsettled state of mind but it was
not done and we are coming
through alright so far.

idea but possibly he may have

criticism should be offered as
sparingly as possible and both
parties will fare as we'll in theend.
