Moving Hay
Derricks Under
Power Lines.

The attention of the public in
general is called to the matter of
moving Hay Derricks or other
high machinery under heavily
charged power lines now com
mon IN this>section. 1t is notice
able that during the baving sea-
son hay derricks in particular are
moved from place to place for the
accommodation of the farmers in
harvesting their hay; now that
we have the power lines here
great care should be taken so as
to prevent coming in contact
with the live wires, which if done
may result in the death of some
one. Only recently an accident
happened, resulting seriously to
farmer near Filler, Twin Falls
county, by moving a derrick under
a live wire heavilv charged, and
as the cOmpany's line sare con-
structed according to the legal
requirements they could not, and
by right should not, be held re-
sponsible for accidents resulting
from any such contact.
The line running into Oakley is
very heavily loaded and anv con-
tact would likely result seriously
If this matter is carefully observ-
ed by older ones and their child
rem are cautioned from interfer-
ence with the lines any troubles
arising from this source can cas-
lily be avoided. A stitch ia time
saves nine.

O.S.L. to spend
$5,OO0,OOO.OO
on Roads

According to a report to the
Stateman from Salt Lake head
quarters the O.SL. will make ex-
tenslve improvements in Idaho
this year amounting to $4,000,
OOO..a part of which will be spent
for extensions in this county and
nearby sections.
Amongst those to be built is the
Salt Lake & Idaho Railroad from
Burley to Strevell, the grade for
which is already built, and it also
states that it will eventually be
extended to Salina a point on the
Southern Pacfic thereby making
shorter route to Portland than
heretofore. The branch from
Richheld into the Camas Prairie
Country will also be completed
which Means considerable to the
state of Idaho in general and
much to the localities named in
particular.
1t is evident that the road up
the Raft river will be laid in
short time, and that Cassia
County will have the advantages
afforded by this line, which means
more development as we'll as the
increased taxable property added
30 the present list.
Other extentions are named
such as the construction of the
road from Nyssa, Ore, to Home
|1ale, which road will be connect
ID with the terminal at Buh], and
when completed will afford a di-
rect line from Salt Lake to Port
land Via the Raft river road and
the south side OF the river to Ore
gon thus avoiding much bad road
and materially cut the distance.

Judge Alfred Bulge whose cut
appears herewith and who is a
candidate for nomination to the
supreme bench is universally ac-
knowledged AS one of the ablest
judges within the state.
For years he has been Judge of
the district court in the district
in which he lives and has the first
time to have a decision reversed
III the criminal division and few il,
the civil court over which he pre-
sides.
At the last election he did not
have an opponent, all of his co.
workers admitting by their refus
al to come out against him, his
fitness for this position.
On several occasions he has
been called to sit in the absence
OF a supreme Judge and his decis
ions there have never been ques
toned.
His untarnished record and the
fact that he is now in the prime
of life has so solidlv implanted
the feeling OF confidence III his ar
my Of friends in every part of the
state that any opposition to his
nomination SO far appears futile
In fact so clean and able has beer
his service in the district court
that any opposition to hin
would Indicate jealousy and q
lack of appreciation of merit
rather than real grounds for op
posing him.
He is deserving of all the honor
his friends aim to give him.

Townsite Sale
Called Off.

The sale OF town lots that was
billed to come off at Marion on
the 11th inst. was called off
shortly after putting up the first
lot.
There were a number OF outside
people in as we'll as several local
parties but none seemed to bid
on the lots offered.
The chief cause given for their
being no sales made was the high
price asked for the property.
1t IS likely that a sale will be
called for later date and the
prices of the lots adjusted. The
property that was advertisedfor
sale is well located and will be
valuable tor city property in the
future.
When the water is turned on
the project next year it is likely
that a very nice town will be To-
Gated on this property with
thriving community around it,
as Il is in the midst of a very
rich agricultural section.

Mr.. J.. H. Peterson whose cut is
shown above is a candidate for
the nomination of attorney gen.
eral on the Republican Ticket.
Mr.. Peterson while here during
the 4th Of July celebration and
who gave avery able and instruc-
tive Grafton on that day is our
present Assistant Attorney. Dur
ing the last four years in the
Attorneys office he has become
thoroughly acquainted with the
duties imposed in that position
and in coming before the people
for nomination and election this
fall is we'll prepared to take hold
Of the duties incumbent upon him
if elected.
Mr.. Peterson's home before
going to the capitol was IN south
eastern Idaho and he is therefore
acquainted with the needs of the
people especially on irrigation
problems, and as this is one of
The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1912-07-12

the vital questions coming before
the state officials constantly he is
in position to give adequate aid
in handling such matters.
The land question is one of the
big things that Idaho has to look
after today and any looseness in
this regard would damage won
derfully our school fund as well
as jeopradise the homes of many
people. The attorney general by
virtue of his Office is placed on a
great many state boards and the
need of having a man who is
acquainted with the needs of the
people is obvious.
While the duties of the Office he
now holds prevents his making
an extensive campaign Mr.. Peter
son reports having encourage
ment from all sections of the state
and at present his nomination
seems assured.
