Other parts of the county have SOME
good roads and we have NONE ant
now is the time to vote for them, j.
we ever expect to have them. Dom
let this opportunity slip; let's have
our part of the good roads. We are
going to have to help build roads any
way so why not build them at hom,

does not appeal to us for we nigh
have to pay 20 years before we ge
any roads. Let's have them now an,
use them while we are paying TO
them. VOTE FOR THE BOND rs

Ready Money
L 0 0 k

Somebody said, "I'd rather be
dead than be commonplace. Though
this came from the mouth of one
man, it "hits off" the feeling of
thousands. "High Art" Clothes are
tailored by young men for young
men and men that think youth is
worth holding on to.
Honest fabrics and honest work
manship, we don't boast of, because
every Tom, Dick and Harry gives
these. But the ultra smart lines of
"High Art" Clothes and the rare
patterns and colorings have the s'look
like ready money" air, that will en-
able you to leash in.
If you want to tower above the
"crowd" let these unusual clothes
give you lift. We could sell many
more of them, but the makers would
rather keep the quantity down and
the quality up. SIS to $25.

COMPARISON OF
THE TWO PLANS
Facts and Figures to Prove
That Bond is the Cheapest
Way to Build Roads.

The "pay as you go" people have
issued pamphlet, in which certain
figures are given, purporting to show
that the bond issue plan will impose
terrible burden upon the people,
while their plan will not. The figures
used by them looked so big and so
scarry that some people may be
afraid to even examine into them.
1t is believed that calculation based
upon facts will show that the con-
clusion reached in that pamphlet is
not supported by the evidence.
Below is given statement, which
is believed to correctly set forth the
money which will be actually paid by
the tax payers during the ten years,
under each of the proposed plans, and
also showing what the people will
get in-return therefor.
The calculation is based upon 100
miles, simply for reasons of conven-
ience in calculation, but the same
ratio will hold good for the III miles
of road proposed to be built. The
calculation is based upon an assump-
tion that money borrowed is as good
as money raised by taxes, and will
build as much road. There may be
some special virtue and unusual pur-
chaisng power in money raised under
the "pay as you go" plan over that
possessed by money borrowed, but the
average man finds it hard to under
stand how this can be, and this is
written for the average man, and SO
the purchasing power of the dollar
will be treated as equal to the pur-
chasing power of another.
Statement of money that will nc
tually be paid out by the taxpayers
in ten years interest, and the returns
therefor.

ROYAL NEIGHBORS IN
STALLATION

A very enjoyable time was spent
by the Royal Neighbors last Friday
evening, it being the night set for
installation of officers. A goodly
number were present. The beautiful
installation ceremony was made very
impressive by Neighbors Elizabeth
Capps as installing officer, and Essae
Smith, ceremonial marshall.
The officers installed were: Mary
A. Bell oracle; Anna Pennington,
vice oracle; Viola Dore, chancellor;
Alice Conkle, recorder; Eliza Bond,
receiver; Lulu Gaumer, marshall;
Caroline Stulz, inside sentinel; Jen-
ME Brown, outer sentinel; Rebecca
Archer, manager.
Mrs. Dora B. Hines and Margaret
Snider were initiated into the my
steries of the Camp. AS is the old
time custom the best was saved for
the last when, after lodge was closed,
all were most agreeably surprised
when the doors of the banquet hall
were thrown open and all were in
vited to partake of delicious refresh
ments prepared and served by
number of retiring officers.

Cheeky KID

Philander C. Knox, the present
secretary of state, told, at recep-
ton at Valley Forge, of an impudent
politician.
1.-The impudence with which he de-
mands his favors," said Mr. Knox,
reminds me of the impudence of
young John Gaines, a Brownsville
boy.
Cone winter day in Brownsville,
the skating was good, and game of
hockey was proposed. John Gaines,
his skates over his arm, rang the bell
of one of our oldest inhabitants, an
1912 veteran, with a wooden leg.
Excuse me, sir he said, but
are you going out today?'
No, l believe not, replied the
veteran kindly. Why do you ask
my SOM
Because If you are not, said
John Gaines, I'D like to borrow your
wooden leg to play hockey with.

CROWLEY COMPLETED THE
WORK

Assessor c. e. Crowley wrote
about $500 receipts in making the
Collection of taxes for 1910, amount
in to about $4,000 The delinquent
taxes will be about $25,
The greatest number of receipts
written in one day was 452, covering
$4,000 paid in on Saturday. the
31st of December The heaviest
taxpayer was the Oregon Short Line,
which paid $44,563, and the next in
line were F. NJ. Shepherd of Idahe
Falls. J. c.. Millick and C. w. Berry
man of Blackfoot, whose checks were
a thousand dollars each, or more.
Under the system of bookkeeping
instituted by Mr.. Crowley he was
able to keep up with the work every
day, and when he turned the Office
over to his successor. Mr.. Wright,
1t was all complete. The only thing
that delayed the transfer at all was
that some checks written for more
than the individuals had in the bank
we're returned, the new rule of the
bank commissioner being that no
overdrafts should be allowed after
the first Of January, and If a man has
800 in the bank and writes a check
for 500 the check is not honored.

SOLD THE COTTAGE INN

Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Ashton, OF
Moore, have purchased The Cottage
Inn of NJ. E. Boyd & Company, and
will take possession Sunday.
The Boyds have conducted the bus
mess in most satisfactory manner
for the past two years and in that
time have added a fine brick addi-
ton, a heating plant and many other
valuable things to this popular hos
telry. Besides this they have made
large circle of friends among the
people who were patrons of the
house.
Mr.. Ashton brings several years
experience, having been with The
Burlington and The Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific railroads in charge
of hotel business for a number of
years.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ashton intend to
give their best efforts to this work,
hot only to maintain the excellent
reputation of the house, but to i'm
prove upon it if possible.
The association of hotel clerks
held meeting recently in Boise,
and took step toward placing Ida
bo in line with the good work of
the national organization, and the
ambition of every member is shown
by the following verses given by one
of the older members in describing
his ideal hotel which he conducted in
his dreams, and 'Blackfoot people
of course will be proud of the new
of The Cottage if this
may also be said of theirs.
No speck of dirt was ever found,
In kitchen, room or hall.
The dining room was magic-like;
The walters one and all
Seemed just like moving spirits
To divine each want and wish,
And in the twinkling of an eye,
Served every guest his dish.
My guests were so considerate, and
pleased with what they got;
They never made comparisons and
all that kind of rot
Just like love-feast was each
meal,
Fom soup clear down to wine,
And when confronted with the bill,
They paid without whine.
