MONEY FOR SHEEPMEN.
Hustling Idaho President Doing Big
Things to Railroad Rates.

Frank r. Gooding, of Gooding
president of the National Wooisrow-
ers Association, was through Rich
field one day last week, on his way
to and from HALEY. Everybody who
knows him, knows that when he set
out to get fairer freight rate for
western wool shipments to the east
ern market, there would be a real
war that would make some one ex-
tend himself to the utmost. From
latest advices, it is expected that a
reduction will be secured which will
net the western sheep men at least
half a million dollars year. When
the woolgrowers chose the fighting
ex-governor of Idaho as their head,
they knew perfectly well what they
were 5oing, for he keeps something
going all the time for their profit.

With the present crop prospects,

settler to pay up his water obliga-

lot of prosperity. Every dollar the

that the time can not be far distant

Recorder would respectfully sug-
gest that tract of ground be secur-

place made fitting last home for
all who are called to lay aside their
earthly cares andenter the long rest
in the valley of silence. In the ma

FROM THE FROZEN EAST
Idahoan Who Knows Where Weather
Is Fit to Live In.

w NJ. Breck, who returned few
days ago from visit OF several
weeks in the East. says that the
people of this section do not fairly
realize what their good climate Is
worth. He was in Pittsburg when
the thermometer registered 15 de-
grees below zro. and tn smoke and
the deadly chill of the more humid
air was almost like the Arctic zone.
But that was nothing, for down in
Ohio he saw II 20 below with such
a blizzard as no man ever saw or
dreamed west of the Rocky mount
aims And at Cleveland, the icy
wind blew so furiously that man
who wasn't already frozen-blooded
by long exposure to that sort of win
ter torment must believe that the
end of the world had come with the
going out of the sun and the final
solidification into ice of all things.
He is very well satisfied, thank you,
with this part of Idaho.

Many New Counties This Year
Lincoln County Only One Out of Several That Will Ask
for Partition at the Coming Legislature.

County division is agitating some
of the sections Of Lincoln county
and promising to cut considerable of
figure in county politics this fall.
Seeing that division is inevitable
at a not far distant day, Shoshone Is
not objecting to have the matter set
tied now, making a division about
as proposed last year, with Gooding,
Shoshone and Rupert as the county
seats. 1t is not at all an irrational
division, and it would leave three
good, compact counties where most
of. the. people could easily reach their
seat of government without loss Of
time However, whether it was alto
Sether good, or not, there is eyry
probability that the votes are in
sight to carry it.
Several proposals have been made
to keep the matter out of politics.
The political leaders on both sides
swear by the nine gods of war that
there will be no repetition of last
years free-for-all primary fight, and
it is pretty certain that however the
county division fight may be carried
on for legislative positions, it will
not be taken into the other offices.
There is no provision for the people
settling the matter by direct vote,
as is done In many other states. A
resolution was passed through the
House, last year, taking this county
making power out of the hands of

MAY GET BIG REWARD.
Richfield Bank Stands to Win Out il
Picabo Robbery Case.

Since the conviction of the Picabo
robbers, it is pretty well conceded
that a few of the good citizens OF
Richfield have a good claim for the
big reward offered fer their appre-
hensicn. Total rewards of above
$1,000 we're offered for the capture
and conviction of the men 1t is to
be doubted if any one else is as
close to this reward as the sheriff OF
Lincoln county and the First State
Bank CT Richficld; with the odds III
favor of the local men. The appor-
tionment of the reward, which some
one has unquestionably earned, is to
be done this week, by arbitration
with the federal authorities, mostly
the postoffice department which has
it in charge.

work with courage and spirit.
1t is thought that the arrangement
now practically made whereby the
copany is to defer contract payents
for three to five years, will resumlt
in putting practically every acre that
has ever been plowed on this tract,
into cultivation this year. A large
acreage Of land was proved up on in
the most perfunetofy way, and the
cultivated land was allowed to grow
up to weeds. Under the present ar
rangements, extensions ar to be Civ
en- only where the ground is rally
farmed. This gives the settler every
advantage, and the nonresident who
has not improved his place will have
no benefit 1t should result in
number of sales to actual residents
who will be glad to come in on the
favorable new terms, while the non
residents who want to hold on will
be allowed to cultivate their lands
and so take advantage of the extern
sion. There should be not less than
ten thousand acres in crop on the
Richfield tract this year.

BRAKES WOULDN'T WORK.

wreck on the Central Idaho Sunday.
A bunch of Greeks were unloading
gravel from some cars that had beer
left standing on the track and the
train was making pretty good head
way when he came in sight of the
cars. He gave a warning blast of
the whistle, at the same time setting
the brakes but they refused to work
and the engine struck the work car,
severely injuring one of the labor

GUESSED WRONG
How "Wet" Element of Lewiston
Fell Into Disaster.

At an election held in Nez Perce
county this week, the county again
went dry by a considerable majority.
The county voted dry two years ago,
but since Idaho county recently re-
versed itself and voted wet after a
two-years trial of local option, the
Nez Percers thought they too could
reverse their previous vote. The
report is that they didn't come any
vote, and the Indian vote which they
had counted to be wet, went the 9th.

weaknesses, one of which has been
a liking for booze; but he didn't
turn in and vote it to his own harm.
The case is very interesting be-
cause of its connection with past his
tory. Old Nez Perce was one Of the
most populcus, richest counties in
the state, and the way the delegates
from there threw their support de-
termined many a political conven-
ton. When the local option law

Attention is called to the provis-

Richfield tract, water was available
in 1910 if not in1909. In view OF
the many final proofs made here in

glect making proof now, before a
contest is filed. 1t is a sure thing
that contests can be made to stick
