HARTMAN PEOPLE AT ISLAND
PARK

On Monday morning special trair
passed through Blackfoot to Island
Park, carrying Robert S. Lovette
chairman of the board of directors
of all the Hartman lines, A. l.. Mob.
Ter, president of the Union Pacific
and Oregon Short Line, E. G. Manson,
assistant general manager of the
Short Line, w. r. Armstrong, supt-
erintendent of the Montana division
and guests of the party.
Mrs. E. H. Hartman, wife of the
noted railroad magnate, has been at
her summer home at Island Park for
some time, and these gentlemen will
take few days rest at her place.
Mrs. Hartman says she liges Ida
no, and enjoys getting close to nat
ure, as she does at the ranch. She
has been a wealthy woman most of
her life and is accustomed to having
the best the world affords, but wealth
has not spoiled her nor made her feel
that the world was made for her.
A year or two ago when she was
starting for San Francisco by spec
ial train with a number of guests
and officials of the road coming to
Idaho, a difficulty arose about the
schedule of her train. Another spec
ial was engaged to go at the same
time, carrying baseball fans to Sac
ramento, and there was room for only
one special to get over the line for
an hour. The baseball people char
tered the train for certain hour
and refused to be delayed for all the
in the world.
The operating department was very
much embarrassed until somebody
went to Mrs. Hartman and stated the
case and asked if they might side
track her train for an hour. Her re-
ply was something like this: "Why
it seems to be the only way to adjust
it, They are patrons of our road and
we have taken their money and a.
greed upon the time of departure.
they have their engagements the
same as we have. We can't wait. It's
Ill right

this fund and if any of it has been
misappropriated, as charged, it
should be recovered and
returned to the state treasury or paid
out to those for whom it was intend
ed.
If that money was taken by Dilling
ham, and the Endorsement upon the
warrant indicates that he received it,
and if it was paid to the Mackay Min
er, a newspaper published by this
same Dillingham;, then it constitutes
a misappropriation of this fund and
he should be made to reimburse the
state and the money should be paid
out to the contributors to the origin
al fund as was the intention of the
legislature, or if they do not desire
the return of their money, the a.
mount not SO desired should be re-
turned to the state treasury and not
paid out to reward political favorites.

THE NEW MACKAY DAM SCANDAL
(Ca pital News)


Governor Hawley owes it to the
people of the state as we'll as to the
citizens of Mackay who contributed
to the fund two years ago whereby
an expert engineer was secured to
pass upon the Mackay dam, to.investi
gate the charges made that this mon
ey never reached those for whose
benefit it was appropriated by the
legislature.
That money was appropriated with
the distinct understanding that it was
to reimburse those citizens who had
contributed of their private means
for what they considered a good cause
and for meritorious public purpose.
1t was right that they should be so
reimbursed.
But the money was never appro-
priatcd for the purpose of contribut-
ing to the private enrichment of any
individuals who had not contributed
to that fund, and even the refusal of
those who did donate to accept the
money, if there were such refusals
which is not alleged, would not just
ify the incorporation of the mon
ey to some other purpose.
The governor should demand an
accounting of the disbursement of

5 MILLION DOLLARS FOR ROADS
IN STATE OF IDAHO.

The boadest and most comprehen-
sive plan of road building ever pro-
mulgated in the west, had its concep-
ton at the meeting of the Idaho state
Automobile association at Montpelier
this week. The plan contemplates the
expenditure of about 100000 in
Idaho and it is SO arranged that the
automobile owners practically pay the
bill.
1t is the intention of the Idaho
State automobile association to have
a bill prepared for the next legisla-
ture which will call for the issuance
of bonds to the amount of $4,000, 900
to run for thirty years, with a sink
ing fund to be established in twenty
years. This money will be spent in
building trunk lines across the state
connecting with the transcontinental
roads now being built under the gen
eral supervision of the American
Automobile association. Each county
in the state may draw on this fund
for any amount equal to the sum ex-
pended by the county in roads build
ing-in other words the state will
pay one half the roads expense in the
county.
The bill also contemplates lonvict
labor which will make an estimated |
saving of a million dollars SO that the
two million dollars furnished by the
state, two millions furnished by the
county and the million dollars saved
oy convict labor, the citizens will
have 100000 worth of good roads.
The automobile owner will be call
ed upon to do his share in this move
ment by paying a tax on his car of
soc to $1.00 per horse power per
year this will be sufficient money
to pay the interest on the bonds even
at the present time, and as the roads
are built and better Accommodations
for travel provided, there will be an
increase in the number of cars suf-
ficient to start sinking fund. Others
sources of income will be the re-
gistration fees, chauffeur license and
fees for violations, So that there will
be no difficulty in providing for the
care of the bonds
Idaho is growing rapidly, both in
population and material resources,
and with the certain development
with the future must bring the re-
funding of the bonds will be a simple
matter when compared with the con-
ditions of to-day.
The roads to be built, as roughly
outlined by president Theodore Tur-
ner, will be an east to west road a.
ross the southern part of the state |
rom Wyoming to Oregon, another in t
he north, from Montana to Washing |
on, and north and south road from t
Utah to Montana. To these three
runk lines feeders will be built, so S
hat every part of the state may con- l
lect up and participate in the bene- a
it's of the main lines. |
The motorists in convention assem- S
lied gave the plan their hearty sup i
'ort, and were most enthusiastic over t.
he future of Idaho when she can r
oint with pride to her good roads o
ystem. a

Instead of accepting his partners warn

in hearts to make two by cards, and
would use his partners diamond suit as
support as it took one trick less to
go game in hearts than in diamonds; SO
he bid two hearts. A passed again, and
thought he had done his duty and let
it go at two hearts.

with the ace of spades, which the de-
clarer trumped, but still had the twice.

rs mistake lies in overestimating the
value of his hearts as trumps after his
partner has shown him long suit in
diamonds. in which Il has two honors
himself. Had Il led the diamond declara-
ton alone, the ten trumps between the
two hands and the powerful plain suit
OF hearts would have netted them three

made would be one trump, two spades
and a club.

The Proper Way to Dust.

Everything has to be learned-even the
simple art of busting. The proper way
to dust is to have a duster in each hand,
which method is quite necessary to sue
cess, for the duster in the left hand is
needed to prevent fnger-marks when
'steadying and lifting highly polished fur
niture.
Each piece Of furniture should be wiped
lightly from the top downward to remove
the dust, and then, after the buster has
been shaken out OF the window-never
over the carpet-the wood should be
smartly rubbed to bring up a polish. Be
sure you treat stuffed cushion with a
brush and buster before dealing with the
wood, otherwise the dust from the up
holstered cushion viii fly out on to the
wood Of the chairs or sofas.
