Motor Car to
Run from
Oak1eytoBurley
WILL BE GREAT ACCOMMODATION

The Oregon Short Line Comp
any has decided to put a Motor
Car into operation on their line
from Oakley to Burley, which
will care for the passenger traffic
entirely. 1t will be of sufficient
capacity to carry all the passeng-
ers on this line and will likely
make several trips each day if
business justifies doing so.
While the engine will be used
most of the time at Burley for
assisting in the work required to
construct the Sugar Factory at
that point, it will also BRING the
freight to this point so that the
Motor Car will supply the needs
of the passenger department only
This wIllno doubt prove a great
help to this section and manItests
the intesest the company has in
supplying the requirements o.
the people here.

Last Sunday evening between

IN thej jaw and seriously wounded
him. The bullet was not located
but /. is believed it has lodged
near the spine. Just before going

wound is very serious and it is
doubtful if he will get over it.
Mr.. Brisco was placed in the
City jall under arrest until the
County Sheriff arrived and took
hnn TO Albion Wednesday.
The. shooting occurred as a re-
suit of things that are reported
to have been said by Kimpton
concerning Brisco and his sister.
Generally the affair is looked
upon as being unjustifyable.o
Neither of the parties are very
widely known here and not
much is known of them.
Brisco will be held a while

Idaho Sheep goes to New

Mr.. Jas. Port of North Oakley
returned from New Mexico last
Thursday, where he has been de-
livering two cars OF Romboulett
Bucks which he is the raiser OF
and which is becoming quite we'll
known in several states around
us.
Mr.. Port has been engaged in
raising thoroughbred sheep for
several years and for some time
has taken great interest and
gone to much expense in exhibit
ing his product at nearly all the
state fairs in Utah and Idaho and
as a result of his efforts he is
having inquiries from sheep own
ners far away for his sheep.
Just recently a gentleman from
New Mexico came to this place
to secure the class of sheep Mr..
Port is raising and consequently
took back with him two cars of
fine Bucks.
Mr.. Port accompanied him to
his home state and upon his re-
turn reports a very favorable
market for his class of sheep.

Water will be
Stored in Reser-
voir This Year.
REPORT TO THE CONTRARY
UNFOUNDED.

In consequence of report hav-
ing gone out that there would
be no water stored in the rese-
rvoir this spring, which if true,
would affect materially the
growing of beets in this section
this year, Pres. VIM. T. Jack
called upon Gen. Mgr. D. c.
MacWatters in the interest of
the Sugar company to ascertain
whether or not such a report
was true and learned that the
story was unfounded and that it
is the intention of the company
to store all the water possible,
or about forty five feet, bringing
it within about ten feet of the
top of the dam at its present
height.
Those who have signed up for
beets may rest assured that they
will not be disappointed in gett.
ing the water necessary to ma
ture their beet crops. AS stated
in our last issue the headgates
are completed and the dam being
already raised to a heighth OF
from fifty to sixty feet and with
a splendid lot of snow in the
mountains there is no reason to
fear that there will not be plenty
OF water to store even quite late
In the season and capacity for
storing all that will be needed
this season. The regular flow OF
high water in Goose Creek is at
its highest point i'll May on an
average each year and by that
time the dam will have been
raised some more. no doubt, so
there is every reason to believe
that considerable more may be
stored than stated if the comp.
any finds it necessary to hold it
up.
People generally ought to cal
culate on planting heavily this
year as there are splendid indicat-
ions that there is going to be an
abundance of water and the
prospects of a good market be
fore them, seems to be the
opinion of nearly everybody.
1t looks quite likely that there
is going to be a good demand
with prevailing prices at least.

my departure took particular
pains to caution Mr.. Carpenter,
the jailor, not to let the pri-
soners in to the yard at all.
Notwithstanding my precaut-
ion in thus warning him he did
contrary to what had instruct
ed him to do, with the result
that Bates got away. MY
Deputy or myself had always
guarded the jail atnights.
Mr.. Carpenter had always
been trusted before and consider
ed a very reliable man but
found that confidence had been
misplaced. Yours truly,

This is something unusual as the
