PARIS GREEN IS
RABBIT KILLER
is WONDER WORKER, 50 IT IS SAID
UNDER DIRECTION OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS.

Reports received from the rabbit-in-
tested districts Of Lincoln County indi-
cate the wholesale destruction Of the
pests as the result Of the poison cam
paign begun under the direction Of the
County Commissioners. The poison was
not received by the several druggists
until the last Of lasE week and the first
Of this. and yet the free dispensing Of
the poison caused many to try it on
the rabbits without delay.
one farmer at Dietrich counted 300
victims of the poison the first morning
after he tried it. The rabbits could be
seen gobbhng up the saturated hay,
which they seemed to relish more with
the poison than without It.
Wholesale destruction was wrought in
eEerg section of the County where the
poison was set
The plan for the killing of the pests
was devised by the Commissioners at a
trining expense. but it is designed to
work wonders for the relief Of the farm
ers and fruit growers.

THE EX-GOVERNOR
AS A GO-GETTER
GooDING, FRESH FROM WINNING
COUNTY SEAT AND COLLEGE,
NOW AFTER RAILROAD.

B 1nlmedia tely after the attainment of
two of the ambitions Of his life. the
foundation of a great college at the
town of Gooding and the division Of
Lincoln County so as to make his
namesake a County Seat, the former
Governor of the State, the Hon. Frank
R. Gooding, left his home on Monday
with another important undertaking on
his hands-which is nothing less than to
secure a railroad through by way Of
Twin Falls from Gooding 10 Wells,
Nevada. The ex-governor thinks he win
be able =. secure the railroad and those
who know him wei as "A .go-getter have
abundant reason to think he will sue
ceed.
1t is known that the Hill interests
which now dominate the Western
Pacific, are seeking Pacific Coast
connection through California. The road
that Governor Gooding seeks to build
would provide that connection with the
construction of a gap Of some three
hundred miles or less, taping the
Northern Pacific and traversing the
state of Idaho by way of Gooding.

THIS BUILDING SEEMS TO BE
VERY MUCH OUT OF PLACE.

More unsightly than a doghouse,
good deal more, is a little four-b by-four
building just erected on the Shoshone
station platform by the Short Line car
penters 1t stands within a foot OF
the most frequently used thoroughfare
in all the town. Its purpose in the
world is to house the firehose but that
would never be guessed. Numbers OF
the townspeople whose eye for the artis-
tic and appropriate has been offended
have peutioned the railroad officials
to move the Objectionable looking build
ing to a less prominent place on the
right of way. Or else the town boys
may turn it over some Halloween BY
mistake.
The station attaches have been
pretty busy answering questions and
explaining things ever since the build
ing began to assume it's standing and
assert itself Not few wayfaring men
have approached the ticket window to ask
for the key. All Of which has made the
aforesaid station attaches pretty sore,
and 80 now a sign in big letters marks
the door-FTRE HOSE.

THREE COUNTIES
GUT FROM LINCOLN
SENATE PASSED HOUSE BILLS
CREATING MINIDokA AND GOOD
lNG-LlVELY DEBATE.

BOISE, Jan. 27.-Through the action
Of the State Senate Saturday after
noon in passing house bills Nos. and
6, two new counties have been added
to the State Of Idaho, and two towns
with county seat ambitions have had
their wishes gratined. BY votes Of
1s to the members of the upper
house passed the two bills creating
the new counties Of 8nnidolaa ana
Gooding. from portions of Lincoln
County. according to the lines heretofore
published.
For several hours the merits of the
two bills were fought over and ar
gued; the people from the neighbor-
hood Of Jerome who We're opposed to
division on the tree-county plan and
who wanted Minidoka county to con-
sist Of that portion of Lincoln county
embraced within the limits of the
Mindioka tract presented their ar
guments; those VINO wanted the coun-
ty divided into thirds also had their
innings and after they had finished,
the solons themselves debated lively
and long over the proposition. The
Minidoks and Gooding county bills
had occupied nearly the entire morn
ing session and Immediately after the
noon recess, Senator Hart moved that
the body resolve itself into commit
tee of the whole to further consider
the bills With Hart in the chair the
first business taken up by the com
mittee was consideratio Of an amend
ment to house bill No. which had
been presented in the morning by
Fairchild OF Ada.
The amendment would have nulli-
fled the three-eounty plan and would.
have made it two-county PROPOSE
tion. The amendment was lost and
when the senate had dissolved its com
mittee of the whole. the bills were
acted upon without amendments

HOME INSTINCT IN Elk
so TO BE SENT ACROSS CONTINENT
But THEY MAY TRY TO
COME BACK.

The Department Of the Interior has
auuaolized the transfer of so elk from
Wyoming to West Virginia, an exper-
iment which is bound to prove of great
interest to the lovers and defenders Of
native wild animals The two carloads
of these magnificent creatures will be
released in the mountains, where they
win have plenty Of pasture during the
summer months. In the winter they
win be cared for by private intersects,
from which 1t MAY be inferred that the
experiment is not undertaken by the
government.
The elk is possessed of an instinct as
unerring as that OF a homing pigeon,
and invariably, where he has been re-
moved from his native haunts, he has
turned TO the land of his birth and made
his way back in the face of innumerable
difficulties. A band of elk rtans-
fe4red from the jackson Hole country to
a new range in Colorado found their way
back again, crossing noun tains and
rivers and traversing a strange country.
The fa1e of the animals which are to
be removed from Wyoming to far-off
West Virginia is problemadcal, but if
they do not endeavor to return across
the continent-a feat which certainly
seems impossible Of accomplishment
they vii surprise those who are familiar
with the character and habits Of these
courageous and beautiful animals.
The elk is easily domesdcated, not
a few ranchmen in Jackson Hole and
Teton Basin having several of them. In
winter, when the deep SHOWS and scar
city Of food drive them from the
mountains into the valley settlements
under the towering Tetons they may be
taken easily. There will be no difficulty
in securing SO of them for the West
Virginia preserve. The trouble win be in
making them stay there, for as travel
ers they have few superiors among wild
animanls-

INSPECTOR WALLIS TALK
BEFORE WOMANS CLUB

( AT the regular meeting Of the Sho-
shone study Club held in the high
school assembly han on the afternoon
Of January "A, James H. Wallis. State
Pure Food Inspector, gave an interesting
talk on 'How can the women help in
the work., at the same time touch
ing upon the pure food question, the
work being done and the results ac-
complished by this department. His
talk was instructive and was closely
followed by the unusually large at
tendance at club.
The club believes Mr. Wallis to be
a competent official. and the right man
in the right place. Just before the
meeting Mr.. Wallis received the news
of the election Of Hon. James H. Brady
as United states Senator. which par
dcularly pleased him. as it was under
Gove1nor Brady's administration that the
Pure Food Department was created and
it was at Governor Brady's hands that
Mr.. Wallis received his first appoint
ment. Mr. Wallis has held the posi-
ton continuously during the four years
and has been reappointed thereto by the
new State Board of Health.
While enforcing the law he has been
considerate, always tempering justice
with mercy. giving delinquents ample
notice and opportunity to comply with
the legal requirements.
The Club members highly approve the
work done by Mr.. Wallis and his depart
ment and appreciates his presence on
this date and the talk he gave them.
They believe that his work is just and
without fear, and feel that the article
published in one of the local papers
some time ago rejecting upon his work
was uncalled for and without foundation,
and should not have been published
We trust we shall have the pleasure
of listening to Mr. Wallis again some
time in the future.
In the evening Mr.. Wallis met with
the town board TO discuss with them
some way of procuring a purer supply of
water for the town He is not satisfied
with the conditions as they now exist
and believes that they can be made bet !
ter without great effort or expense.

LIST IN THIS CASE.

Among the new County officials to be
appointed by the Governor will be the
entire list for Minidoloa and Gooding
and two Commissioners 3 surveyor
and a Treasurer for Lincoln. 1t is said
to be agreed upon that Thomas H.
Gooding will be named as one Of the
Commissioners. The other member will
be Walter S. Hetss. E. A. Bowler
has been agreed upon for Treasurer. to
succeed Fred A. Clark, who has
elected to remove to Gooding for the
same office in that County.
In Gooding County Fred Bliss for
Sheriff, Percy sutphen for Prosecuting
Attorney, ". P. Kenneday for Asses
sor, Frank Bower for Clerk and Auditor

polnuees. Ed S. Smith will in all like
Hhood secure the appointment as Sur

1t will be the first public office that
Thomas II. Gooding has ever held when
he asus,nes the duties of County Com
missioner for Lincoln. HIS life and
business activities have afforded ample
opportunity, however, for demonstration
OF his abilities for handling important
trusts. 1t was felt that no man could
be found better qualified to settle the
differences calculated to arise by the /
score between this County and the two I
new divisions just set off from it's orig !
lnal territory. Ar. Goodins will bring to
the discharge of has off5ciaI duties the /
same clear-headed business ability and /
rectitude that have characterized his
whole career.

the Board, was one OF the first set
