A Bio DEAL

The dispatches last week announce
the consumation of II deal of great
magnitude, which has been pending
for some time, and which is consid-
cred of vital interest to all sections
of Southern Idaho. We have refer
ence to the taking over by the Kuhn
interests of the Boise & Interurban
electric lines and the Swan Falls
power plant. The magnitude of
this deal can be more fully realized
when it is stated that the transac-
tion represents something like SO,
0O0,0O0.
Those ON the inside look upon this
move as only the opening step to
what promises great possibilities
along the line of electric railroad de
velopment in this section, and SOME
of the more enthusiastic ones have
already imagined themselves being
transported from here to the Capt.
tol ON electric cars, and this visior
has a prospect OF being fulfilled.
The Kuhns interests are Il power
full organization with abundant cap
ital at command to carry out any
1
undertaking they might assume
and with their various projects scat
tered through Southern Idaho, 1t
but natural to anticipate a tim
when these projects will be linked
together with an electric line.

A GLOWING SUCCESS
Such Is The Record OF The Lincoln
County Fair

Though our Wendell Section gives
ample evidence of the successful
achievements attending the holding
of the Second Annual Lincoln Coun-
ty Fair at Wendell last week, we
cannot refrain from adding a word
of commendatiOn to the officers and
others who were instrumental in
bringing about this splendid ex-
hibit.
In true sense tie fair might be
more properly termed the first an
nual exhibit Of products from the
North Side tract, as it is practically
the first efforts on the part OF our
| farmers to demonstrate what can
actually be accomplished on land a
year or so from sage brush, and af-
ter viewing the splendid results OF
the efforts of our farmers, one would
be almost ready to declare that
they were in the midst of AN old
settled country.
Hay, corn, wheat, oats, and other
grains in profusion, stood there as
monuments to the productiveness
of our soil, while the exhibit OF
horses, cattle, sheep and hogs
showed clearly what can be accom-.
plished along the lines Of stock rails
ing in this section.
The fruit display from the Hag
erman Valley and Blue Lakes wa.
very elaborate, and called forth graf
. flying exclamations from all, anc
is only a sample of what may b'
expected on this tract in anothe
. year or SO, when the North Sid
will vie with these older localitie
for first honors.
The school display, which is tn
first attempt made in the county t.
1 display the arts of our scholars, wa
E very creditable indeed, and shouh
, be source of qualification to par
ents and teachers as well.
Above all this, however, is tn
t supreme satisfaction of KNOWN
that all sections of the county hav
4 been brought into closer unity witt
e each other, and more friendl.
: feeling engendered, which bode
: much good for the county at large
& and will have the tendency to di.
!, pei the little jealousies that may b
l. engendered among the rival town.
e Thus in all respects the fair ha
e been a most gratifying success, an
= the citizens and business men ,
d Wendell are to be heartily congrat,
n lated on their labors in bringin
about this most satisfactory achiev,
=, nNnt.

ENTHUSIASTIC
MEETINGS HELD
Union Meetings are Successful in the
Different Churches.

At the afternoon Union meeting at
the United Brethren church Rev. j..
p. Currin delivered the sermon. He
took as his text the story of the
leper found in the first chapter of
Mark 2. THE leper came to Jesus
and Jesus touched him and he was
healed. The Christian today is in
need Of the personal touch. Any wo-
man in the audience would be glad to
touch a fine, healthy baby, but to
touch "A leper would be an entirely
different thing. Jesus was ever ready
to reach hand to anyone who need
ed help. The meeting was well at
tended and when thrown open to
prayer and testimony, many people
responded. Rev. d. II. Bailey will
have charge Of the meeting this af-
ternoon,
Rev. f. Il. Zechial at the same
church in the evening, urged the
Christians to use their influence to
bring the unconverted to the Union
meetings.
Rev. S. c. Bates spoke at the
First Baptist church from the text
"He that would be chief among you,
let MN De your servant heN, Bates
said, "In the world, the one who at
taines a high position, uses it to OPP
press his fellow men. In the king
dom which Christ was to establish,
those who are humble and willing to
serve will attain the highest posi-
tion. Rev. ID. II, Bailey will address
the people in this church tonight.
At Calvary, Rev. Bailey chose his
text from the first chapter of Acts
"Ye shall receive power after the
holy ghost has come upon YOU" The
holy ghost qualities the people for ser
vice. The elements Of power the holy
ghost will give, are. the Joy of ser.
vice, the power of life, the conviction
Of duty and the confidence of re-
suits, Many enthusiastic people were
in attendance.

turning home from work. After wait.
on the platform for Erie train No.
to pass, he attempted to cross the
tracks and stepped in front of Erie
train No. IS. backing up from the
west yards 1t is the old story, fa-
miliar to all railroaders, of stepping
out of one danger into another. The
passenger coach struck him knocking
him over on the tracks. The wheels
passed over his left thigh, almost sew
ering it from his body, and badly
crushed his left side and left arm. His
lower jaw was mashed to pulp,
probably breaking his neck, causing
almost instant death.
The brakeman, riding the coach.
and several bystanders shouted to
warn him of the approaching danger.

WORK ON THE DREDGE
IS TEMPORARILY STOPPED
High Water gives the Work
men a Vacation.
Big Machine Can be Gotten Ready for
Operation Within a Short Time.

Present conditions along the Little
Scioto river indicate that the work OF
improving that stream cannot be COM
pleted too soon. The recent rains
falling upon frozen ground has sent
large volumes of water into the river
and the result has been that the
stream has spread over the surround
ing country
The high water has stopped the
work of the Timothy Foohey Dredg-
ing company on its dredge. The
dredge, houseboat and lumber piles
are all surrounded by water so that
the workmen have been compelled for
several days to cease operations. The
force of ten men which is working on
the dredge has been idle for some
time. just at a time, too, when the
work would count for most. The
boat upo which the machinery Is
placed has been completed and most
# the machinery has been installed
The large "A" structure which sup
ports the boom and dipper was be-
ing put in place when operations had
to be stopped and were it not for this
delay, work of dredging would pro-
badly have been begun within the near
future. The approach of spring with
the delay which is probable as IA re-
suit of the high water may make Ii
impossible for much headway to be
made for some time but just as soon
as everything is in readiness the
dredge will be put to work and when
once started a double shift of work
men will be used. so that the machine
may be in operation day and night.

A petition asking that a receiver
be appointed for the business partner
ship of Joseph Brown and Aaron
Brown has been filed in common pleas
court by Attorneys Mouser and Mo-
loney for Joseph Brown.
The petition recites that on April
IS, 1910 the plaintiff and defendant,
Aaron Brown, entered into a part
nership, which was verbal that the
agreement was that each was to de-
vote his entire time to the business
and was to receive a weekly salary and
that no part of the profits of the
business were to be taken by either
until such a time as they could agree
and then they were to be shared
equally. The plaintiff states that he
put into the business the sum of $722.-
"a and the defendant the sum of SCI;
that he has never drawn from the
profits of the business but that the de-
fendant has taken sums of money,
the amount of which he is unable TO
state.
The court is asked to dissolve the
partnership and to appoint a receiver
to wind up the business of the firm
and pay of the debts.
Joseph Brown and Aaron Brown
conduct a junking business in this
city.
A rather peculiar thing occurred
in connection with the filing of the
petition. Mr.. Moloney was in the Of
fee of the clerk of the court and had
just completed the filing of the case
and issued a precipe for summons
when a representative of another law
firm entered with a petition asking
for a receiver, for Aaron Brown, the
defendant named in the petition filed
by Joseph Brown.
