in Montana in Dillon and one in
Butte They are wanted here to an

them are expert locksmiths and they
carry along with them key outfit.

Building Activity
Things Doing All Along Entire Line
of Central Idaho Railroad and
New Towns Are Starting

The first train load of steel for the
Central Idaho railroad arrived in Rich
field Thursday, much to the gratifcat-
ion of the engineering force of the new
road, who have pledged the completion
of the road this season. The track
laying machine for the laying of the
rails is on the ground, and is to be
started to work on Monday, October g.
The machine can lay up to three miles
of tract day, though it is not expect
ed that that much will be put down at
present.
More steel is in the yards at Poca-
tello and Shoshone, there not being
yard room here in Richfeld. Al ad-
ditional track is now being laid here,
that will accommodate 20 cars or more,
but even with all the trackage the
steel from the outside will have to be
brought in only as it is used, and not
rehandled
All the ties, nearly ITO, 900 in all,
are in the Richfeld yard, ready to be
taken out to be laid They will be
handled by the track-laying machine.
Work has gone along most salts
factorily on the bridges on the new
line. The two big bridges across the
Malad and the Big Wood, each almost
100 feet high and 400 feet long, are
well along toward completion; it is ex-
pected that both will be finished by
the time the track'ca be laid up to
them
About 400 men are now employed /
On the construction work, all along the
line. The really big gangs have not
yet been put on, for the laying Of the
track and the finishing up and ballast
ng Of the road; hardly less than
1000 men will be on the pay rolls at
me time, when the track crews begin
vorkS
Work begins the last of this week
IN the last stretch of grading, the
grounds at Prairie City. A
hree-stall round house, coal chutes,
water tank, large stock yards and
for handling a large amount
f traffic will be put in there, while
here will be an aggregate of several
niles of track laid there to meet the
needs. There is an immense
rain crop in that vicinity, an aggre-

be good place for, the shipment of
sheep from the forest reserve. A
station is to be established not far
from the present postofice Of Manard
about nine miles southeast of Soldier.
At New S ldier, there are already
two good buildings erected, and there
is promise of a good town. The rail
road runs amile and half south Of
the old town of Soldier, cutting them
off from the railroad map most eff
fectually- 1t is understood that the
owners of the land between the new
townsite and the old town, are prepar-
ing to plat the land, making in effect
three rival townstes for the business
of that section of the country.
At Corral nine miles farther west
a new townsite is to be laid out on the
Carpenter ranch, on the railroad
mile south of the old town. The
survey that missed Soldier. passed
Corral in the same way, and at almost
the same distance; and the old town
is expected to move out bodily to
the railroad. At Prairie City. the

and goodly number of those inter-
estea we're present. 'ffhe matter was
discussed by those present, and a com
mittee was appointed to investigate
conditions and see where it was ad-
visable to organize at this time or not.
The committee will make its report at
a meeting to be held, Saturday after
noon, October p, and all water users
on the tract should be interested.
There is no doubt that local Water
Users Association would be of great
benefit to the farmers, on the Rich

whether It IS 2 necessity at present
can only be determined by discussion
by those who are interested.

audience by dignified address, which
comported magnificently with the po-
sition he holds on the bench.
Senator Borah was received with the
same enthusiasm and acclaim which
have been accorded to him everywhere
in the State. He fought the wind and
the dust in making his voice heard, and
was compelled to desise before the
crowd was ready. He was surrounded
with admiring friends, who pledged to
him their loyal support in his fight for
clean government
The displays at the Fair were highly
gratifying to the people. Fruit and
vegetables, live stock, grain, grasses
and in fact all of the produces of the
farm and ranch were displayed in pro-
fusion, and the character of every ex-
hibit was excellent.
In the woman.s department, fancy
work, pastry, jellies, etc, were of high
order of excellence.
The display of the work of the
schools of the county, the first to be
attempted in the history of the county,
were creditable in the extreme, and
source of general qualifications to the
parents and the corps of teachers en-
ployed in the educational work Races,
trap shooting, base ball and other
recreations were provided, while at
night dances afforded pleasure for the
young folks.
The absence of catch penny devices,
schemes pandering to the
desires of the children, and the general /
department. of the people in attendance
were noteworthy. and augured the
splendid order which was maintained. -

The Second Annual Lincoln County
Fair was concluded in Wendell this
week, three days being required fo1
the completion of the program which
had heen arranged for the entertain
ment of the visitors.
Without deviation, the program was
carried out. Governor Hawley ap-
peared on the opening day and deliv-
cred an interesting address upon the
pioneer history of the state. Judge
Walters and other local speakers oc-
cupied the time on the second day,
which, being Childrens Day, was
largely given over to the pleasure of
the youths of the schools of the county.
Senator w E. Borah7 appeared and
delivered an address on the concluding
day The wind was high, and dust in
terfered with the delivery of an out
door speech. AS a consequence the
popular senator had to cut his remarks
short.
All of the speakers were well
received, for r-all are popular with the
masses in Lincoln county. The rugged
Hawley, who pioneered in Idaho before
there was arsettler or the hope of
ranch in the wide wastes of the now
magnificent irrigated section of Idaho,
and who prospected for gold when

held his audience with interesting
narrative of the transformation he has
witnessed, andsfnally overwhelmed the
crowd with the declaration that he
stands now as he has always stood for
fair play for the settler. Judge

under difficulties. But he held his

OFFICERS TO MOVE
VIII Occupy New Capitol Build
ing After July, 1912

The present capitol building will be
abandoned by the officials who are oc
cupying Offices there and they will
move into the first floor of the new
capitol during the month of July, 1911.
Officers in the old Central school build
ing will be transferred from that struc-
ture to the old state capitol building
occupying the Offices deserted until the
second and third floors of the new
building are completed. All of the
furniture that is to be purchased dur
ing the time intervening between now
and the vacation of the old capitol
building will be bought with the idea of
permanency, so that there will be no
waste of funds or useless expenditure
for furniture for the new building.
The capitol commission at meeting
held yesterday afternoon with Governor
James H. Hawley, at which were pres
ent State Treasurer Allen, Secretary
of State Clifford and Mr.. Coffin, decided
upon the furniture feature and dis
cussed in a general way the old and the
new buildings.
1t was the opinion of all of the men,
bers of the board that the furniture
should be taken care of at as early a
date as possible, and that probably by
January of 1912 the contract for it can
be let. This will give the parties from
whom it is ordered six months in which
to fill the order.
Home industry will be patronized in
every respect so far as the purchase of
supplies and furniture is concerned. ac-
cording to the unanimous agreement
of the commission. All of its members
were of the opinion that everything
possible should be done so as to avoid
delay in the furnishing of the main
wing of the capitol. The last floor is
to be completed by about year from
now, when it is hoped to have the
state officials moved into their perma-
nent quarters.

a BIG7DEAL
Kuhn's Invest Heavily In Idaho
Industries

Boise, Oct. 9. Millions in cash and
securities, the transfer of property of
tremendous present and prospective
value, and combinations and develop
ments for the immediate future that
stagger the imagination, are involved
in deal just closed, deal that means
more in business way to Boise and
southern Idaho than any other in re-
cent years.
In brief the deal involves the trans
fer of the Boise & Interurban railway
company's entire holding and the
entire holdings of the Swan Falls
Power Co., to J. S. Kuhn and w. S.
Kuhn, of Pittsburg, Pa, firm knomn
to every man in Southern Idaho as
Kuhn Bros.
Just what was paid for the two pro
perties will never be known, except to
those directly interested in the DEAL but
it is given on the best authority pos
sible that upward of $1,OOO,O 600 was
paid for the Interurban property,
while approximately the same was
paid for the power plant
This deal has been under way for
months, and when some time ago w.
E. Pierce, head of the firm of w. E.
Pierce & Co., left for the east with the
that he might be de-
tanned on business indefinitely, it be-
came certain to many that unusual
developments were soon to be an
nounced.
Yesterday the official information
came from the east that the deal had
oeen consummated, that the papers
had been signed and that the Boise &
and the Swan Falls power
olant were from this time henceforth
he property of the Kuhn Brothers.
The formal transfer of the property
will take place November l.
