Southern Idaho the Place for
the Homeseeker

We wish it were possible to con-
Vey to every one who is looking
for home and a chance to get
away from the eternal grind Of a
life in the crowded thoroughfares
Of the business world of the great
cities, the truth about this great
irrigated section Of Southern Ida
hottie Great American Desert"
as we have all been taught to look
upon it from our text books since
the time We were able to take up
Geography in our school days. We
wish it were possible TO get the
truth to this vast army of people
who are striving to exc out an ex-
Istence and are barely able to make
both ends meet in the attempt. Lit
erature On the subject does reach
q very small per cent. Another
small portion is interested through
The friends who have come and
have taken advantage Of the oppor-I
tunities offered in this land Of ir-
yigation, of freedom and plenty, but
what of the millions who know alb
solutely nothing Of the empire be-
ing builded, Phoenix like, upon the
ashes of the one time mass Of la
va, which flowed over this vast
area from the Rocky Mountains to
the snow capped peaks Of the ST.
ePras and Blue Mountains on the
west, and which during the ages
past has been covered with a soil
brought down from the mountains
and deposited on this bed of lava,
which today marks the homes of
thousands Of happy, cOntented peo-
pie, brought about by controlling
Ne waters of the majestic rivers |
which flow from the towering, |
snow capped peaks on either side
Of US, and led to the fields Of the 1
tiilers Of the soil What would be /
ihe surprise Of that small body of /
pioneers who fought their way
DOWN the wastes of the Snake river
desert scarcely more than a CEN
fury ago, if they could see this fair /
and today-a land where civilized /
man has taken the place of the (
savage and the wild beast which /
barred the way in many places Of
Lewis and Clark and their little
band. Our mission would have been
much different had this band OF
sturdy pioneers realized what this
desert held in secret for this gen.
Grafton. Today the Wood river is
its vast waters over MANY
acres of valuable land and the Ida
no Irrigation company have suffl-
Client water in reserve to complete
the irrigation of the entire tract
OF 100000 acres and water to spare.
Southern Idaho has room for
you, the time is ripe for you to
come. we have something to show
can do what others are
doing and in a few years you and
yours will have forgotten the toll,
The worry and the inconvenience
which you have passed through IN
q realization that your LIES labor
has not been for nought. Come to
Southern Idaho, where life is worth
living. where your work will give
you that God given freedom which
he Creator intended you should
have. Get back to the soil and
live near nature and be happy.

Many Of the grass mixtures given
out by the seed houses are silly con-
giomsrations. some Of which are made
up OF a few good varieties and then
poor ones thrown in simply to throw
chaff into the eye q the customer.
However. there are many advantages
in mixtures rather than single seed.
some grasses start very early in the
spring, while others do not begin until
late in the summer, and there are
scarcely two grasses that have the
same time OF growth. BY combining
them we nave. therefore. constant
succession Of fresh succulens grasses.
The evil in a mixture is that some
times there is in It grass Of inferior
quality. and that one will be neglected

EASTERN MARKETS Y E s T F. R D A r

BOSTON, June 5.-We feel stropg- CT than ever tonight that big bui, market in coppers is under way. With the present strength in metal the 10. cal coppers are selling 10 to 20 points too low on the average and the buy. ing power is increasing every day The market was more active today than il has been for two weeks, and the big spectators are coming iE who have been bearish up to tbis time. We pointed out Quincy last night as selling twenty points too low and we wish to repeat that we advise the purchase Of this stock as being the safest and most conserya tive investment for speculation in the local list. The prospect of a rise in all Of them looks so good that il Is hard 10 pick out specialties, but We also believe firmly that Copper Range. Granby Shannon, East Butte, Allouez. Ahmeek and Osceola will be the biggest winners in the shortest time. as the producing minas are get ting the most immediate benefit O. the l7 cent metal market, and will increase dividends within the next three months.

REPUBLICAN, SPLIT.

As was anticipated by all of those who are acquainted with the political situation in the state as it applies to the republican party, that party split in it's state convention Monday and elected two sets of delegates to the national convention in Chicago Both of the conventions were regu. lar enough to be recognized uhder certain political conditions; that is, either faction will be the regular faction in case it's friends win at Chi cago. Both state factions are now claiming to be regular and they will senI their delegates to Chicago with the proper credentials. As matter of fact it was to be expected that the two delegations would go to Chicago prepared in every way to substantiate their claim of regularity
 From a democratic standpoint noth- ing better could have happened than the oI,er rupture between the reput lican factions. They are now further apart than ever before and one man in The Taft convention even went so far as ;o declare he would not vote for Roosevelt if the colonel should be nominated He wanted a resolution adopted to that effect but didn't get it. This shows the spirit that exists and makes it evident how easy it will he for the democrats to carry the state for their nominee no matter who is chosen by the Baltimore conven- tiou.
 It further means that the democrats are certain to elect their officers at the next state election because the republicans are so divided, due 10 fights not only over Taft and ROose- vel, but over personal matters in the selection Of delegates to the state convention.
 The men that the republicans nom mate in the state are sure to be knifed ard the democrats will get the benefit Of the fight. Eecrything points 10 democratic year

times.
 Things are sort of changing around, aren't they?
 Possibly the day of woman's rights has actually arrived. and some men are getting what they served 10 the weaker sex for so many generations as the especial privilege of masculin- ity.
 But the abused husband isn't nearly as patient and lOng-suffering as the abused wife has been. Instead of en- during and trying to hide his bruises and the disgrace7 from the neighbors, he hies himself to court and cries aloud for the protection of the law.
 We piticd the victim ot the wife beater Usually she was a puny and helpless thing with brute of d hus- band
 But does any body feel sorry for the miserable apology of d man who lets 1 his wife lick him to frazzle and then goes bowling down the public way telling his woes to the world?
 Chicago suffragists seem tO be fol. | lowing the example Of the two illus trious leaders oT our Republican par ty.
 The wOman's suffrage party of the ! Windy city has been broken into two factions at deadly war with -one an. other. When the one faction discov- cred what the other faction was doing to iL there was perfectly beautiful time, The 'steam-rUller' rolled and there was an. exchange of remarks that might have given pointers to even those ouce-dear but now-neveT. ] nomOre friends in the presidential 1 race.
 However. it will hardly be seemly, just now, for masCulinity to criticize these feminine procedures. The wO- men are acting altogether too much like regular politicians. Since imita. ton is the sincerest flattery, the imi- tated should not find fault, nor ridi- cule.
