EMMETT GIRL
WINS PRIZE
Tells How She Earned Her First
Money.

Miss Blanche Nelson, the 13-
year-cld daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Andrew Nelson, told in the Sun
days Statesman how she earned hel
first money and her story was so
intere stingly told that she was a
warded a prize. Here is the tale
in her own words:
THE first money 1 ever earned
was last spring when We lived on
a large fam. The gophers were
eating the alfalfa and digging holes
so it was hard to get water on the
land.
MY father said he would give
me 10 cents apiece for all the Big
Blue" gophers l could catch, and 3
cents for the gray ones.
Il learned how to find the holes
which were covered with soft dirt,
and how tG set the traps, so start
ed to work. The first evening l
went to the field mosquitoes We're
swarming around me, and frogs
jumped in all directions. l put the
trap in the hole and was covering
it up, as they told me to do, when
l thought a gopher had caught me.
L screamed and cried for help. My
father came running all out OF
breath ard found me with a trap
hanging to three cf my fingers. l
told him wouldn't catch gophers 10
it hurt them as it did me, but he
told me how they were destroying
the field, so I set the trap and soon
earned enough money to buy my
mother nice birthday present"

industrious class of people.
What do you think of the stu
alton from national standpoint"
the senator was asked.
1T is impossible for anyone at
this time, in my judgement, TO
prophesy with even a degree of Ger.
tainty. l think President Taft Is
much stronger than he was thirty
days ago. have no doubt, on
the other hand, that Colonel Roose-
Welt will poll a tremendous vote
and the attacks which are being
made upon him by the class of
menwho are making them will not
take from, but in my judgement
will add to, his Strength No
man can be assailed by an uncon-
scionable class of political crooks
and financial thieves without being
benefited.
Wilson, since his nomination,
has made a strong impression in
the east. His acceptance speech
was received favorably, and unless
Roosevelt pulls from theDemccratic
party heavily, whioh it is claimed
he is doing in the east, Wilson will
be elected. If Colonel Roosevelt
welt does draw from the Demo-
cratic party, as it is claimed
he will, then it is anybody"s chance
for election"

An Accommodating Corporation

The fruit growers of the Emmett
country have a warm spot in their
hearts and mary words OF COM
mendation for the Boise Interurban
railway. Orders were given early
in the season TO give Emmett fruit
the right of way over every other
commodity and carry it on the first
car that came along, whether pas
senger or freight. The result is
all fruit has been carried to its
destination without any delay what
ever. That action also permitted
shipments to be made by freight
instead of by express and has re-
suited in saving of cents on ev-
cry crate shipped.
