Democrats hold
County
Convention.
COOP REPRESENTATION.


The Democratic County Con
vention held at Albion last Sat
urday was, according to all
accounts, a very harmonious
affair. Delegates were present
from all but four precincts of the
! .Junty. William Schlick was
elected as permanent chairman
and c. c. Wilburn as permanent
secretary. Committees were APP
pointed on credentials and resol-
utions:-
On credentials-W. E. Abraham
X. H. Parish
Willis Sears
T. II. Taylor
F. A. KAISER
On Resolution-E. Hunter
Arthur Pierce
S. .Worthrngton
Tom Edwards
0. X. Hale.
The Convention unanimously
adopted resolutions, strongly en-
dorsing the administration of
Governor Hawley, condemning
the policy of the Government in
it's conduct of the Reclamation
Service and instructing the deleg-
alton from Cassia County to the
State Convention to secure, if
possible, the insertion of a plank
in the state and national plat
forms extending the period on
payment on Reclamation Prof
ects from 10 to 25 years. The
resolutions strongly criticised the
recent action of the Department
in charging 1870 interest in con-
sideration of an extension OF the
maintainance charges. The can
didacy of Judge X. /. Perky for
National Committeeman was in
dorsed and the delegation was
instructed 20 vote for him so long
as he had prospect of election.
The delegation from Cassia Co.
was instructed to use every legit-
innate means to secure the select
ion of ]. B. Hit as delegate from
Idaho to the National Convent
ion.
The delegation to the state con-
vention is as follows:-
w. E. Abraham
S. Z. Worthington
E. J. Hunter
William Schlick
Oscar Pierce
B. Hit
X. L. Rice
O. p. Anderson
All of the delegates chosen ex-
pressed their intention of attend
ing the convention to be held at
Coeur d. Alene. and it is possible
that Cassla County will be rep
resented tor the first time by a
full delegation at a Democratic
State Convention.

JUST A LITTLE TOO HAsTY
Mr.. Newlywed Resented What he
Considered lmpertinence, but the
Joke Was on Him.

They were on their wedding tour
and imagined that every c1vility CIV
en- them related to their new condl-
ton of servitude.
Having stopped at way station
the bridegroom was approached by
the station agent, who asked:
"Are you going to take the next
train?"
Its ncne of your business" re
torted the bridegroom, Indignantly, as
he guided the bride up the platform
where they condoled with each other
over the impertinence of some OF the
natives.
Onward came the train, its vapor
curling from afar. 1t was the last to
their destination that day-an eX
press. Nearer and nearer it came at
full speed; then in moment it whiz
zed past and was gone.
"Why in thunder didn't that train

WOMEN AND HEALTH.

Women are beginning to realize
more fully that good health is not to
be found in the use of cosmetics and
face powders. The appearance Of
health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper thar
the surface.
Most important to the health of ev-
cry woman is regularity of the bowels
and digestive organs. The weary
eyes, bad breath, frequent headaches,
pimples and general air of lassitude,
is in most every case due to consti-
patton or indigestion, or both. There
are various remedies prescribed for
this condition, but the easiest, most
pleasant and certainly effective, is
q, combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known to druggists
as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This
simple remedy is far preferable to
harsh salts and cathartics and violent
purgative waters that disturb the
whole system without affording more
than temporary relief.
DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin is a
tonic laxative, mild in its action
pleasant to the taste and positive in
it's effect, Strengthening the muscles
of stomach and bowels so that after
short time these organs regain the
power to perform their natural func
tions without assistance.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in SOC and
S1.00 bottles. If you have never tried
it. write for a sample to Dr.. w. B
Caldwell, 201 Washington ST., Monti

And thereat she told him more of
her ranch life in the days before her
father died. And Daylight was hugely
pleased with himself. They were get
ting acquainted. The conversation
had not Jagged in the full half hour
they had been together When she
talked, he listened and followed her,
and yet all the while he was follow
ing his own thoughts and impressions
as we'll. It was nervy thing
for her to do, this riding astride
and he didn't know, after all
whether he liked it or not. His
ideas of women were prone to be
old-fashioned: they were the ones he
had imbibed in the early day. frontier
life Of his youth. when no woman was
seen on anything but a side-saddle
He had grown up to the tacit tictior
that women on horseback were not BIZ
peds. 1t came to him with a shock
this sight of her so manlike in her
saddle. But he had to confess that the
sight looked good to him Just the
same.

She nodded; while hob pricked up
his ears to the knowledge that he had
a strange rider on his back. The
fun came quickly enough too quickly
for Dede. who found herself against
Bob's neck % he pivoted around and
bolted the other way. Daylight followed

didn'tyive, after it once learned the
lesson, that would whirl in the face
Of the doubled quirt.
More keenly than ever, during that
week in the office, did Daylight realize
that he had no social, nor even human
contacts with Dede. The situation was
such that he could not ask her the
simple question whether or not she
was going riding next Sunday. Thus
he found another card in the hand
the mad god had dealt him. How Inn
portant that card was to become he
did not dream. yet he decided that 1t
was pretty good card.
Sunday came, and Bob, out In the
Piedmont hills, behaved like an angel.
His goodness at times was OF the
spirited, prancing order, but other
wise he was lamb. But no Dede did
Daylight encounter. He vainly circled
about among the hill roads, and In
the afternoon took the steep grade
over the divide of the second range
and dropped into Maraga Valley. Just
after passing the foot Of the descent.
he heard the hoof beats of cantering

toward him. What II 1t were Dede?
He turned Bob around and started to
return at walk. The canter came
nearer, but he faced straight ahead
until he heard the horse behind check
