Blackfoot Appears Prosperous

L. E. Dillingham; was in Blackfoot
on business and pleasure trip the
latter part of last week and was sur
prised at the change in the general
business tone there over that Of year
ago. The stores were enjoying good
business and there was apparently
mere money in circulation than there
had been in the Grove City since the
year before the "bect tops took the
place Of real money. In discussing the
subject with citizens it became evid-
ent that the run of the sugar factory,
which was not operated the year be-
fore, had a great deal to do with the
improved business condition. THE far
mers in that locality went in pretty
strong for potatoes too, and that brot
in ready money.--Mackay Miner.

SALT LAKE RETAINS
o. s. L. HEADQUARTER

Salt Lake, Dec. 2S.-With the for
NAL announcement just given by the
Oregon Short Line that it will renew
its lease on the occupied quarters in
the Deseret News building for a pc
riod of years, the recently repeated
rumors that the general offices of the
company would be removed to Omaha
are effectually discredited.
The present lease of the company,
which covers five floors of the main
News building and three floors of the
News annex, expires in June, 1912.
Under the terms of the old lease,
which was 10 years, the leasee was
required to give six months notice be-
fore the expiration of the lease of
the intention of renewal and this no
tice has just been given and accepted
by the owners of the building. j, The
new lease will be given for five years,
and it is understood among railroad
officials having in chrge the making
of the lease, that an option for an
=
additional five years will be embodied
in the new lease.
Since the appointment of A. L..
Mohler as president Of both the Union
Pacific and the Oregon Short Line
railroads, with headquarters at
Omaha, there have been repeated ru-
mOrS that the general offices of tho
Oregon Short Line would be removed
to- that point. These rumors have
never been authorized and have been
constantly denied by the railroad offici
ais. With the announcement that the
company will renew it's lease on the
present office quarters any doubt as
to the continuance of the general Of
fees in Salt Lake is dispelled

SCHOOL BUILDING

city schools, makes the announcement
that tte dedication of the new high
school building will take place on the
evening of the 11th.,' inst. Governor
James H. Hawley has consented to
take part in the dedication exercises,
and the special program which is to
be given, coming from the capital city
for that purpose. This school is one
Of the finest in the west, and one that
the general public can find much to
talk of. The efforts of Mr.. Vincent
in behalf Of better educational facili-
ties have been crowned with success
and. the city owes him much for his
work.

MACkAY is TO HAVE
ELECTRIC LIGHTS


Within three weeks the desire of
the people of the Copper City will
be realized in the way of electric
power and lights. The last shipment
of machinery necessary for the com
pletion of the plant being installed by
the Mackay Light and Power Co, ar
rived On Tuesday and with it came
two experts to complete the installa-
ticn and put the plant in operation
Mr.. r. A. Snathen, who constructed
the transmission line last year and
also installed the electric plant for the
Sunbeam Mines Co, is in charge, as
sisted by Mr.. E. E. Davis.
The machinery will be moved to
the canyon by the end of this week
and workmen are there now making
ready for connecting the water wheel
and plant up with the water power
pipe line.
With the completion Of the plant
the Lost River Milling Company will
put their elegant FIGURING mill in
operation and many other industries
will be benefited and others made
possible.
The transmission line has been in
readiness since last spring and a
force of men are now running feed
lines over the town and connecting up
with stores, shops and residences The
number of places already wired in
dicates that Cedar creek is to fur
nish light and power to practically all
the people of this city. The old ker-
osene lamps, candles and gasoline
lights will be done away with and
the thousands of dollars that have
gone into these commodities will be
kept at home.-Mackay Miner.

DECLINE OF RAWhlpE
Town Now Being Quietly Carted
Away

Rawhide was one of Nevada'S'
toom camps three years ago. It had
10000 people at one time. They came
from everywhere, but it was largely
an overflow from Goldfield, Tonopah.
Manhattan, Ryolite and southern
camps Of this state. This is the pres
ent condition as described by the Viz
ginia City Enterprise.
"A considerable amount OF the
camp Of Rawhide has been moved
away bag and baggage. Many peo-
PIE who left the camp and nailed up
their cabins, will should they return,
find only the vacant ground, as in
some cases the cabins and all have
been bodily taken out of camp. Fur
niture, hardware and all goods that
We're not chained down have vanish
ed like magic. Most Of the movable
stuff was simply lifted. A team win
drive in and in a few days out goes
load of furnishings that some house,
holder believes is yet in camp. Where
i goes the narrator did not state and
could not tell. Even small mae him
cry has gone with the rest of the
goods that have vanished.

ANOTHER HAWLEY MISTAKE

Shoshone, Dec. 29.-There was in
stituted in the district court Of Lincoln
county today an action charging Sena-
tor Fred w. Gooding with illegally
holding the office of highway district
commissioner. The case was filed by
James r. Boutwell,, county attorney,
and he claims that he was requested
to d. so by citizens and taxpayers of
the district. Just who the citizens and
taxpayers are no one has been able to
ascertain.
The particular charge of the COM
plant is that Senator Gooding had
no right to accept an appointment
from Governor Hawley to an office
created by the legislature of which
the senator was member.
The office of highway commission
er is a great deal like a school dis
trict office and many other petty Of
fees in that it involves a considerable
amount of labor and there is no COM
pensation or salary in any form. The
appointment of Senator Gooding was
urged by the farmers and business
men of the district and the senator
consented to act because of the i'm
portunities of his friends and because
Of his well known disposition to be
public spirited.
The same law which says that a
senator shall not accept an office Gre
ated by the legislature of which he is
a member makes it unlawful for the
governor to make such an appoint
ment. Senator Gooding is not a law
yer. Governor Hawley has long. been
a prominent member Of the bar. If
there was any mistake in appointing
Senator Gooding it seems that great
er mistake was that Of Governor Haw-
ley, in making the appointment.
The highway district is more than
satisfied with the large amount Of
time which Senator Gooding has free
ly given to the district and is well
pleased with his services. It has
been suggested that it is one of the
Kaleidoscope scenes incident to the
extra session which has just been
called. Mr.. Boutwell,, county attorney,
is Democrat and it is not impos-
siblc that he may be receiving orders
from men higher up in the councils
Of the party.
At any rate the public will await
the outcome with interest Mr.. Good
ings attorneys assure him that it is
an abortive attempt at playing politics.

for Monday morning from IL o'clock
until daylight, and repaired there to
have a good time. Walker Rich and

giving an exhibition of boxing that
was quite attractive to all witnesses.
Fred Keifer refereed the bout and a
period Of one hour was consumed by
the boys. Honors were about evenly
divided. The young men are both
athletes, good football men and goo.
