GEORGE FITCH GETS GAY
WITH IDAHO
Alleged humorist writes following bur
lesque on Gem State for
Chicogo paper

Idaho consists of number of
hopeful but lonesome communities
bound together by a state cleo
ton. 1t is one of the largest states
in area, but is so sparsely settled
by railroad depote that when a
statesman in a northern county
wishes to visit his constituents in
the south ern part of the state, he
has to change cars four times and
borrow right of way through two
neighboring states to get there.
Thanks to the telegraph and maga-
zines. all Idahoans speak the same
dialect, eat the same kind of break
fast food, and get mad at the same
varieties of oppression by Wall
street.
Idaho has $4,000 square. but By
no means flat, miles. and has 325.-
600 people or one for each quarter
section. However, over 10000 of
these people are crowded together
in Boise, the capital and metropolis
and other thousands have masse
together in Pocatello, Lewiston,
Occur d'Alene and other BIB towns
with Howitzer voices.
Thus a great many square miles
in Idaho are derived of their right

sible to wander for hundreds of
miles in the central part Of the

FRENCH PROPOSES IMPROVE
AIENT IN HOMESTEAD LAW D

Representative French has in
troduced a bill providing for the
designation OF $4,000 acres OF land
BY the secretary of the interior n
the state of Idaho which is now
available for entry under the en-
larged homestead act without the
residence feature OF the Law being
imposed. In the state of Utah large
areas have been designated where
the residence feature is not imposed
and residence may be maintained
within a radius OF so miles. In
Idaho some 5000 acres have been
designated where the residence may
be within 20 miles. II appears that
there are large tracts of land in
the semi-arid region of southern
Idaho similar to the lands in Utah
which are available for agricultural
purposes and yet are of such a
character that water can not be
furnished for domestic uses except
ing at exceedingly high cost. Mr..
French believes that the reasons
apply in Utah for removing the res
idence feature of the law apply in
certain sections of Idaho and that
the laws of the two states in this
respect should be brought into har-
mOny

Tale of q Rabbit.

A. W. Church has been confin-
ed to his bed for the past two or
three days suffering from very
lame back. Mr.. Church had been
out hunting rabbits and after some
distance had been travelled in
search of game. sighted poor,
lonesome one some distance ahead.
Careful aim was taken and the
deadly shot fired-did we say dead
ly, we'll we mean 1t would have bee
deadly had it hit the rabbit. The
noise of the shot attracted the at
tention of the rabbit and he hoped
to a mole and perched himself to
investigate. A second shot rang out
but the rabbit still lived. Church
took his gun apart and blew throw
the barrels to be sure they were
clear and reloading the gun sat
down and taking aim across a sage
brush and wasted all the ammunition
he had with him. By this time he
became angry and taking off his
surplus clothing started out to catch
the rabbit There is no telling how
many miles were Travelled by man
and rabbit and dogs, for he had
several with him but they quit the
race early. 1t was Just about dusk
when the rabbit gave up and sur
rendered and Mr.. Church made the
capture and returned home. AS a
result of his strenuous experience
he must spent a few days in bed
and says he will give some school
boys five cents a piece for rabbits
the next time his appetite leans
that way.

Hight School Team Defeated.

The American Falls high school
basket ball team played the Poca-
tello academy five in Pocatello on
Tuesday evening and were badly
worsted, suffering defeat by a score
of 81 to 19, the most overwhelm-
ing reverse given them in years.
The local boys were without the
services Of Grover Evans, the husky
and expert forward who has been
called the star of the team, and
this broke up their team work bad
ly. In addition to this they were
going out of their class in tackling
the big academy boys. who, with
the advantage of playing on their
own floor. simply smothered our
valiant fellows.
