Ross Fork to Fort Hall, in oommem-
Grafton of that historic army post
which for years marked one of the
resting places for omigrants who
crossed the plains over the old Ore
gon Trail The original Fort Hall
was located some place near the
Snake river, about II miles northwest
of Pocatello, and was historic spot.
When the Fort Hall Indian reserva-
ton was created, an agency was es-
tablishcd on Ross Fork creek where
it yet remains. The changing OF the
name of the agency settlement to
Fort Hall meets with the approval of
all concerned and it will serve to pre-
serve the memory of that historic old
army post which at one time marked
q big blazo on the path of civiliza-
tion.
Officially hereafter the postoffice
at B oss Fork will be known as Fort
Hall, and the Short Line railroad
will also adopt the new name on its
time cards.

THE CITY BUSINESS

After reviewing some details OF
unfinished matters on Shilling avenue
the matter of laying pavement on Ash
street was reported upon, and it was
recommended that nothing be done
until the street was fully opened on
the south. The street and alley COM
mittee was instructed to take steps to
open it.
There was some talk of requiring
people to clear off all sage brush on
their land within city limits. Ordi-
nance No. Sc provides for, and an or
der was made covering it.
A petition was presented and
granted asking for block of pave
ment on the west side of Maple St.
from Judicial to Sexton.
J. L. Wigand asked permission to
extend the sewer system 100 feet to

All losses were covered by insurance,
as near as can be ascertained.
The Bell Telephone exchange was
in the midst of the fire, but the man
ager and one man stuck on the job
despite the choking smoke, and SER
vice was suspended for only about
an hour.
The fire was one of the worst in
the history of the town. Being in
the rear basement of big building,
it was very difficult to get at, and
it was $3.50 before the blaze was ex-
tinguished. Four men, whose names
were not learned, were overcome by
smoke while fighting fire in .le
basement, and were dragged out by
the other firemen. The water pres
sure furnished by the l. P. 7. Co.,
was very good, and three good
streams of water were kept on the
fire for hours. .-

Basalt to Vote on
Improvement Bonds
Citizens Of That Progressive City
Called to Vote on the Ques-
ton. Basalt an Ideal
Residence City.

The village council at Basalt an
nounces an election for the purpose
of voting to obtain money for grading
and improving the streets and alleys
of the town, and in SO doing they
follow the example of practically all
the progressive towns of the country.
Having streets graded and we'll
drained enables people to get about
and attend to business and social al
fairs regardless of weather condl-
tions, and the expense of the inter-
est is generally more than offset by
the advantages of the more easy
means of getting around, and the
larger loads that can be handled.
Besides this it is unjust to the pio-
neers who lay out town and carry
ell the burdens of the first improve
ments. to have to Immediately add
to that the expense of permanent
street Improvements. The bond is
sue enables them to distribute the
burden more evenly with the early
residents and those who come later
to enjoy the advantages.
The village coun il has acted in
response to demands of large num-
ber of people, and at the election
on the 7th of May the whole popu-
lation of tax-paying adults will have
a voice in the matter, it being neces-
sary to have two-thirds of the votes
cast, to be in favor of the bonds,
in order to authorize the sale. John
H. Berg is chairman of the board and
| r. T. Quinn is clerk.
A Good Residence Town
Basalt is ideally situated on an
eminence overlooking the valley, and
! only mile from the station. 1t has
an excellent graded school, a good
meeting house, several stores, and
many nice homes, with many trees
and orchards. The schools have
always been a source of pride with
them, and they say that although
they have had good schools at Other
times, they have a corps OF teachers
now that they are especially proud
of and loyal to. Miss Nora 0 Brier
is principal, and Miss Don Carlos
Miss Laura Gaumer and Miss Core
Shelman fill the other places
Basalt has a large amusement
hall, with stage and facilities fol
putting on good show, and the toWr
is gradually getting to be a cente
for amusements and for education.

some surveying done. Also, asked to

ferred to the improvement committee
with power to act.
Buying the New Park
The question of buying Temple
block for use as a park was disposed
Of by rejecting the purchase, by a
vote of five to three.
A new tank has been erected at
the cemetery and it is now in use.
An order was made to approve the
purchase of material worth SAL to
make porch for the sections house,
