and for Mormon Vote.
(By Underground Wireless to I
the Capital News.)

(By Underground Wireless to
the Capital News.)
Washington, d. c., Dec. 30
A rumor which will not down,
and which is supposed to have
started near the bureau of the
Idaho Statesman at the corner
Of Chinese Alley and 2 streets,
Is to the effect that President
Taft will start for Boise early
In January to push the candi-
dacy of c. Cobb, OF Boise, for
the United States senatorship to
fill the vacancy caused by the
death Of Senator Hepburn.
The rumor is to the effect that
the president feels very kindly
toward C. Cobb, for the pleas
ant time given him while he
was In Boise last year, and for
the gallant fight made for him
by G. Cobb and his newspaper.
Having received all the votes
of Utah and southeast Idaho at
the late election, the rumor says
that the president feels that he
can have a great Influence on
the Mormon members of the leg
islature and that they can be
switched to C. Cobb when the
proper times come.
Rumor has 1t that one r. r.
Johnson, Of Alaska coal fame,
and Jimmy Clinton. of Big Lost
River Irrigation project, will as
sisr in getting the "Guggenheim"
and stand-pat vote for c. Cobb;
that Col. Louie Folsom will han
die the Hebrew vote, and Capt.
]. Priest, assisted by Max May
field. will handle the Oregon
Short Line vote, and with all
these combinations 1t is quite
certain that c. Cobb can be
elected senator.
Later: A later rumor is to
the effect that C. Cobb has un-
dertaken to teach Senator Raw
enel Macbeth how to dance the
Turkey trot, and II he should
succeed in this 1t might have
great weight with the senator
and 1t Is thought he might vote
for G. Cobb. 1t Is rumored that
Senator Dubois viii start for
Boise at once to head off this
Turkey trot business.

ago only sage brush and wild grass
grew.

to be heard and expects to be heard,
now at harvest time.
The Wheeler boys have about 800
acres of fine grain. They plowed
several hundred acres this Spring
with their steam pillow and did fine
work. What is needed to make dry
farming successful, is the best up-to

handling the crops.
