AUTOMOBILE CONTEST
BECOMING POPULAR
YOUNG AND OLD HAVE ENTER
ED THE RACE; EVERY.
ONE HAS CHANCE

with Wednesdays counting of thu
ballots the first week of the grea
contest come to close. The list OF
~ candidates who have sc
far been nominated for the race am.
ply proves the popularity of the idea
and the wisdom of The Brcwn-Hart,
Co., and the Idaho Republican. in
selecting a Mcintyre as first prize,
The list of candidates printed below
Is a large one and that insures a
close contest and an exciting race
throughout.
Generous With Neighbors.
A pleasing feature already shown
IN the contest is that SO many peo-
pie have nominated friend in their
own neighborhood, showing desire
TO land the big prize in their own
community. There is often a spirit
OF jealousy existing between
nelghbors that prevents their
working together or for each In such
contests, but in the nominations
made, large number of thoughtful
persons have shown that they want
the big Mcintyre car to come to
their own neighborhood, and that ia
mark of loyalty to friends and
neighhors' and to the hon;.s comnun-
fty that is very commendable. It is
& poor community that will not stand
by its own people when there is q
chance to land prize for somebody.
The list of candidates this week
does not really tell anything about
the race. The contest is so young
yet and has SO long to run that the
votes cast the first week form merely
a stepping stone. Undoubtedly this
Is true but it should not lead any,

PRESS CLUB VISITED MACKAY.
Meeting Was Decided Success; LOc-
al Conditions Discussed

AS per announcement last week
the Eastern Idaho Press Club went
to Mackay Sunday and returned
Monday evening on a belated train
Belated to give the club time to COM
plete their trip to the Mackay Dam
after their ascent of the mountain
which occupied the earlier part Of
the day.
The trip was designed to be en-
tirely social and educational affair,
educational from the point of sight
seeing and study of local conditions,
was attended to in a twohours' ses-
sion held Sunday evening. Also the
place of the next meeting was dis
cussed and left to be decided by the
executive board consisting Of the
president, secretary and member
from the town to be visited.
Several places want the meeting
but they all prefer to have the June
meeting instead of the one in Octob-
er. Rupert wants to entertain the
club in the strawberry season and
while the fields are green instead of
when the cows are on the stubble
They wish also to show off their gov
ernment irrigation project when it is
in a state of completion and useful
ness that justifies examination and
study, and that period has not been
quite reached yet. Rupert is on
the Minidoka project--a thing that
has been as deep and absorbing a
study as the Civil War was to those
who engaged in it. And yet people
living in adjacent counties have al
most closed their eyes to the pro-
blems it presented, because they had
troubles of their own. Joe H. De-

to linger; neither should it encourage
the candidates already entered to put
off work in earnest. 1t should be re-
membered that constant dripping will
wear away stone and also that the
steady, consistent, and systematic
worker will have the best chance OF
winning. The old maxim that, "A
Rolling Stone Gathers no Moss" Is
reverse in contest; for here 1t Is
the ROLLING Stone that gathers the
Votes. A candidate who sits down
and waits for her friends to do it is
extremely liable to gather moss but
not votes.
Use The Coupons.
A nominating ballot good for 1000
votes when used to nominate new
candidate appears herein and also
coupon good for 100 votes for any
candidate already nominated. No
candidate may receive credit for
more than one of the 1000 nominat-
ing ballots. The weekly coupons
which will appear in issues of the
Republican for time only, will be
and must be cast before
the next count of votes or they will
not be credited. This fact should
be remembered by all candidates and
their friends. The nominating bal
lots will be lettered and will not be
credited unless cast before the next
count after their appearance. This
rule is made in order to prevent the
accumulating and holding back Of
large number of votes from this
source by any candidate. Act now.
Do not hesitate. The present Is the
best time to enter the race. Nothing
,an be gained by delay except the
possibility Of defeat. Use these cou-
)ons at the present time for 1t should
)e remembered that they will lose
,alue in week. The weekly bal
OTIS crediting 100 votes will also not
lppear regularly except for short
ime only.

SOME CHANGES IN ROAD LAWS.

Some important changes in our road
law were made by the last legislature
One law provides that the county com
m%issioners may appoint a county high
way superintendent who shall have gen.
eral supervision over all roads in the
county. and he shall consult with the
various townships boards in the appoint.
ment of deputies with the same power
as our present road overseers, But as
this law is not compulsory on the com
missioners, then in event that they shall
not appoint a superintendent at THEN
April meeting, the township supervisors
must appoint road overseers of the
different districts within their town,
ships so that in the future it will not be
necessary to elect road overseers at the
general spring election, which has been
the law in the past This is an import.
mt change, and time alone Will tell if it
will be advantageous or not to the cause
of good roads. One thing is certain
however, it is in line with legislation
adopted by other states that have pro
gressive laws on the subject. Some
slight modification on local conditions
will likely be necessary to get the maxi
mum benefit from these laws.

10 the Democrats of North Dakota:
In view of the fact that North Dakota
democracy is not represented in congress,
the position of national committeeman
will be a very important one in the event
of a democratic victory at the polls next
November. The measure of the claim
on the suffrage of the democrats at the
primary in March must be the good of
the party. Personal ambition, however
laudable must be a secondary cousidera-
ton. expect support from my fellow
democrats solely on the ground that l
am competent to fill the position, not
because of wealth or lack of wealth. 1
have been identified with the demo-
cratic party ever since it's organization
in this state. [ invite honest criticism

Co.. Com'r Wienecke was in town Tues
day from his farm at Iona, having just
returned from his trip south as far rs
Florida along with Hon. Ole l. Gjevre.
On Thursday morning of last week, be-
tween ten and eleven o'clock, Howard, the
five year old little son of Landlord and
Mrs. 'Speckmann, of the Dresden hotel,
died quite suddenly, the direct cause of
death being an acute attack of Group,
with which the little fellow was seized
during the night. When he was put to
bed the previous evening he was in mis-
usual health, except for a bad cold that
had been troublesome for several days.
In the morning Mrs. Speckmann, not
finding the child getting up at the usual
hour went to his room, where she found
him unconscious and apparently dead.
Thoroughly alarmed at the result of her
discovery medical aid and assistance was
summoned with the result that respira-
ton was restored although he never re.
gained consciousness and died about the
middle of the forenoon. The funeral was
held from the Catholic church at Mt
Carmel on Saturday forenoon, inter.
ment following at that place.
