FINDS LITTLE DIRT IN HOTEJ 6
OF THIS STATE
(Statesman)

r. G. Mcpherson of Portland, is in
the city en- route from Blackfoot
where no recently installed a system
OF heating and ventilating in the new
high school, and Pocatello, where he
put 1t in tho old courthouse.
In speaking of his visits to the
various cities in the state, Mr.. Nc
Pherson said: There is one thing
in Idaho which | envy you and I
shall never feel that Oregon is quite
perfect until she has the same thing,
and that is your state sanitary inspec-
tor. No one realizes more than I do
the work that he is doing, for | have
visited many of the towns before and
after, and you have no idea of the
difference. never see a dirty hotel
in Idaho now. The lavatories are all
equipped with sanitary towels and
liquid soap; there iS no smell about
the place, and you feel, instinctively,
when you are eating at these little
hotels that the kitchen must be clean
to correspond with the rest of the
house.
i should like to shake hands with
Mr.. Wallis, who, | understand, is re-
sponsible for al this, and to con-
graduate the state at the same time
in having citizens who take so kindly
to deserved criticism and begin at
once to correct their faults.
Il don't believe that there is dir
ty store or hotel or boarding house
in all Idaho, and that alone is enough
to successfully advertise your state
all ovcr the nation"

PROTECTING THE TROUT

To further the protection of trout
and other game fish In the lakes,
rivers and streams of Idaho, says the
Statesman, Ben R. Gray, state game
and fish warden. is sending out to all
deputies of the department copies of
a notice calling the attention of own
ers of irrigation and water power
bitches to the laws which provide
for the maintenance of fish screens
in such bitches.
The work will be carried on by
representatives of the department un-
TIL every water power or irrigation
ditch in the state which finds its be-
ginning in lake or stream where
fish abound will be properly
screened. Past experience has proved
that unless such screens are provided
thousands of fish are lost each year
in the irrigation bitches alone. The
trout leave the main streams and
follow the course of the irrigation
ditch until the ditch reaches field
or orchard, where all the water il
consumed by the earth and the fish
are left to die.
Many instances of great loss of fish
In such cases have been recorded In
previous years and following a test
OF several models of available screens

be vigorously enforced in the future
and that every effort would be put

AUTOS IN YELLOWSTONE PARK

AT the opening of the present ses-
ION OF congress- Senator Hepburn
presented to the secretary of the in
terror numerous, petitions signed by
residents of eastern Idaho asking that
the roads in the Yellowstone National
Park be opened to automobile travel.
The secretary of the interior has
denied the petitions and states that
the uniform policy of the department
to decline to permit automobiles or
motor cycles in the Yellowstone Ma
tlonal Park will be adhered to, for
the reason that their operation would
be dangerous to persons driving over
the roads in conveyances drawn by
horses or other animals.
With view of securing an appro-
priation with which to construct new
roads or change the present roads so
as to permit automobile travel, Sem

REGULATING
The STOMACH
That Important Organ Work.
According to the Quality Of
the Blood That Is Fur
nished 10 r.

There is the most intimate relation
between the condition OF the blood and
the activity of the stomach. The blood
depends upon the stomach for a large
part OF its nourshment; while every
act Of digestion, from the time the food
enters the stomach until it is digested
and assimilated by the blood, needs
plenty OF pure, well-oxidized blood.
The stomach works only according to
the quality OF the blood.
The most common cause of indigee-
ton is anmmia, or lack of blood. In
deed there is not single disturbance of
the health Of the body nor any form OF
exhaustion or lowered vitality, that
may not lead to stomach trouble. Dis
ordered blood is the one common cause
OF indigestion. Thin, impure blood
weakens the muscles of the stomach
and lessons the product of the glands
which furnish the digestive fluids.
Nothing will more promptly cure in
digestion than plenty of pure, well-ox-
idized blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People increase the red corpus
Giles, the oxygen-carriers of the blood,
until the blood is rich and red. A
thorough trial OF these pills gives a
hearty appetite, perfect digestion,
strength and health.

ors assistant for several years. His
life was thrown into q new channel
by the arrival in the courtyard OF an
Italian family in which there was a
handsome, Authenticated girl, who
sang as a ballad singer The father

name was Caterina. When she went
away Ziem felt miserable. He lost
spirit and could not shake off the sort
of paralysis that had seized on all his
faculties. At last he determined
with the help of his needle and his
talent, as he thought, of portrait paint
er and violinist-to make his way to
Venice. They answered to his hopes
of going down by water to Marseilles,
for he knew no geography. and thence
to Rome.

swift,s joke on PARTRIDGE.

Partridge, the almanac maker, who
taught Old Moore his business, will be
remembered as the victim Of an ex-
traordinary practical joke played on
him by Dean Swift.
Against Partridge's almanac for
1908 the dean published rival al
manac, predicting Partridge's death
on March 80, about II at night. of a
raging fever. And on March 80 ap-
'peared a pamphlet giving an account
of the almanac makers death with his
confession that he was an impostor.
This was followed by Swifts "Elegy
on the Death OF Mr. Partridge" which
so completed the deception that the
Stationers company struck Partridge
off the rolls and applied for an In
junction against the publication of al
manacs in his name.
Partridge advertised that he was
not only alive, but was also alive upon
March 49," But no one believed him.

them with horses, saddles and arms.
The cowboys left Polares last night
to relieve the ranchers.
Twenty-seven cowboys were in the
party which set out after the comman-

told them he had no authority to cross
the border and aid the Morris en-
ployes. Seven or eight MeXicans are
reported to have been killed in the en-
gagement.
! With the attempt of the cowboys to
relieve Pascal and his men having
failed reports here say Americans are
forming on this side of the Rio
Grande at Sierra Blanca and will cross
the river this evening to participate

cowboys have been slain has thorough
