WILL REBUILD Mill
Alfalfa Meal Mill Mt Kimberly Will
Soon be Running.

When the alfalfa mill burned a
couple of months ago there were those
who doubted the statement of the
hackers of the enterprise that it would
be rebuilt before cold weather set in.
Under most circumstances their
doubts might have been justified, since
the venture was a new one, and when
the fire came along and took the plant
it hadn't had a chance to make good.
Many would have quit right there, In
fact, the majority of the stockholders
did quit, since they permitted their
stock to go by default rathersthan pay
the assessment levied against it for
construction purposes. But W. r.
Summers, the chief stakeholder and
the original promoter of the enter
prise, wasn't built that way. He bought
in the delinquent stock and himself
put up the money to reconstruct the
burned building and purchase the new
machinery required.
A complete new equipment of ma
chinery has been ordered from Salt
Lake, and the work of digging a base
ment under the portion of the plant
burned has been in progress for a
week. BY the end of the present week
this work will be finished, and as soon
as cement floor and sides are laid, so
as to make the basement waterproof,
| the rebuilding of the walls will begin.
The mill will be running by the 18th
of next month, say the parties inter-
ested in the enterprise. And che en-
ergy and vigor with which the work is
being prosecuted gives that
they are not dreaming.
There is enough demand for alfalfa
meal to make venture such as this
extremely profitable if the marketing
end of the business is properly looked
after. There is no reason whatever
why this should not become one of the
most promising and flourishing In
dustries on the tract, aud Messrs
Summers and Closson deserve the
support of every wide-awake either
of this section in their efforts to pro
mote it to a successful end-Kimber.

JUMPS INTO SNAKE
Idaho Falls Man Ends Life by
Drowning.

1t appears that George Neal, pro-
prietor of the Brooks hotel of Idaho
Falls, has suicided. At least such is
the theory of his family and friends,
and everything warrants that assump-
ton. He has disappeared under cir
cumstances that are very peculiar,
and it is thought that he jumped into
Snake river below the railroad bridge
and near the city power plant at Idaho
Falls.
For some time he had been in finan-
cial straits, and Monday, when his
hotel property was sold under tax
title, and foreclosure proceedings
were said to have been pushed by the
! Earl Investment company, Anna Mat
/ tivi and others who had loaned Neal
money, he became very respondent.
He was also suffering from a severe
case of erysipelas.
Monday night his mother dressed
his swollen face with a lotion and laid
silk handkerchief over it as George
lay on the bed in his bathrobe. Next
morning George was not in his room
his clothes were just where he had
placed them, and barefoot tracks were
found in front of the hotel, which is
near the river.
Later on the handkerchief was pick
ed up near the bridge, and his bath
robe was found at a landing on the
island near the power plant, and i,
is thought that he deliberately plunged
into the deep and chilling waters anc
ended it all.
/ Neal was unmarried, and at ONE
time was prominent figure in Idaho
Falls, acting as councilman fort sew
eral terms, and being very active II
politics. He had a great many friends
who will regret his end, if it trans
pires that he died in the manner sug
gested.
I, The river is being watched at the
P. & T. dam, short distance below
, Idaho Falls, where the body will even
: tually lodge, if Neal drowned.
!, His father, mother and sister live'
in the hotel with him.-Pocatello Tri

OIL AT WtISFR
Oil Struck on Ranch in the Weiser
Valley.

From all indications there is a
great oil deposit under the Weiser val
ley, and it can be tapped at a COM
parative shallow depth. This much be-
came evident within the past week
when Colonel Dell Overton announced
that he had struck oil in the we'll be-
ing driven on his ranch near Jonathan
and about five miles west of this city.
The deposit of oil was found at a
depth of only 665 feet and in the two
inch well that has been driven it is
estimated that there is now flow OF
possibly three or four barrels in ev-
cry twenty-four hours. The strike
was made last week but not until Sat
urday was the we'll bailed out and
then in the presence of group of To-
cal citizens who are interested in the
prospect. Mr.. Overton announced
that he had found oil and notified his
friends to come down and witness the
bailing process and satisfy themselves
that the deposit was actually discov-
cred and dispell tn doubts in theil
minds that drilling for oil in this ter
ritory was a success.-Weiser Ameri-
can.

FAULTY DIGESTION
Quickly Skaters the Nervous System
Immediate Action Necessary
Try Mi.O.na.

When you feel irritable, tired and
espondent-when you have nervous
twitchings, specks before the eyes,
headaches, sour stomach, heartburn,
indigestion and pains in the colon and
bowels-you suffer from indigestion,
which soon develops into Dyspepsia

you need Mi-o-na at once.
Mi-o-na is not cure-all, but a
scientific remedy that surely ends
stomach misery. 1t builds up and
strengthens the stomach walls and

system. Then the vital force and
nerve energy is restored, iimpartine

SETTLERS MAKE DEMANDS
Medbnry Settlers Want Contract Kill.
ed-NO Water in Four Years.

Charging that the company has
completely failed to furnish water, set
tiers on the Medbury tract are deter
mined to have cancelled the contract
between the state of Idaho and the
King Hill Extension Irrigation COM
pany. A number of settlers appeared
before the state land board on Satur-
day and through their spokesman, w.
E. HOWE, made strong plea for a
better system.
In a brief filed with the board the
committee representing the settlers,
composed of Mr.. HOWE F. E. Wilson
and M. Nelson, set forth that in 1910
they were promised water and made
their plans accordingly. The water
was not furnished, and great loss and
suffering resulted. The same thing
occurred in 1911. It was repeated in
1912, and again in the present year.
These men are satisfied now that
the present canal carrying water from
the Malad river is not sufficient to
supply the King Hill project and the
Medbury project also. They are in
formed, they say, that the company
has given up all idea of building the
reservoirs contemplated in the origi-
and permit others to build them.
The land board is reminded that the
settlers on this project have been ex.
| tremely patient and long suffering
but that they can stand the financia

A REMARKABLE POCKET CANNON
German Engineer Turns Out Hand
Engine of War.

A real pocket cannon" has been in
vented by Herr Aasen, German me-
chanical engineer, which is occupying
the attention of the German war de-

mortar for throwing hand grenades.
Experts declare that the new weapon
will be most effective and deadly in
close action and in storming and de-

Both the Japanese, in the Russian
war, and the Bulgarians, before Adria-

rapidly as they could be thrown by

IDAHO
Judge C. C. Goodwin Pays Tribute to
Gem State.

Under the above head, Judge Good
win of Salt Lake, one of the best
friends of the Gem state, has outside
of her borders, pays the following
compliment to her in his splendid
newspaper, Goodwin's Weekly:
Our neighbors in Idaho are disput-
ing with Utah as to the measure of
progress And they have reason for
it, for Idaho is swiftly becoming one
great garden. Her claim is that she
has more agricultural land and more
water to irrigate that land with than
any other state in the great basin and
that she is putting that land under
cultivation faster than any other state,
And she is right. And what she pro-
duces is percest 1t is true that in a
very few years she will have more
land under tillage than either the
great states of New York or Pennsyl-
vania; she will raise more and better
| fruit than any eastern state, and her
mines will supply enough gold and sill
yer to keep perfectly reinforced hel
currency She will sell her products
at home for home money, in that way
her crops will be converted into i'm
perishable treasure.
She is keeping her schools at the
height of efficiency. her climate
makes the state great sanitariun
which insures as healthy race O.
men and women and children as bless
the earth. And they are clear-brain
ed, level-headed. patriotic set of peo
pie. Why not Idaho hail the future
| ioyously and with exultant hearts turn
from the triumphs of the past to the
expected triumphs of future years ?

RECORD FOR ALFALFA
Big Crop on Farm Near West End
City.

1t is not unusual for Jarbidge gold
bearing rock to be found with silver
in paying quantities, in fact it is quite
the common order of things, but for
farmer to find pay dirt when
threshing his wheat crop is out OF
the ordinary to say the least, but that
is what befell Pat Trumpfeller, who
has been ranching this year for his
uncle, Pat Monahan. x
Pat sowed 10 acres to wheat on al
falfa ground. And it SO happened that
the alfalfa protested-most vigorously
Bull soil is the natural home of the
alfalfa plant. and it did not propose
to give up it's birthright without a
struggle. Pats check from the seed
buyer shows that the alfalfa did make
some struggle-out-did the wheat, in
fact. The wheat only made 3S bushels
to the acre but the field turned out
1920 pounds of alfalfa seed which
netted Pat $3.50 per acre.
Pat is some discouraged over the
obstinacy of the alfalfa. He has tried
two years to kill it out.-Buhl Herald

Great Expectatious." /"

The touch of masterliness that has
made Phidelah Rice the foremost
platform reader of the day last night
lifted him TO supremacy in his inter-
probation of Great Expectations -
Rice illumines Dickens as he does
Shakespeare and his characterize
tions reviyify the types as the writ
er himself was never able to do. No
framer of sentences-not Dickens
hlmself-could endow Jaggers or
pip" with the living reality that
Rice puts in the characters. No read
er of his age is able to breath the
spark of vital naturalness into the
people of his story as Rice can do. ,
Last evening 1t seemed that his
characterizatiOns were changed with
a more startling distinctness than in
any of his former readings here. He
leaped from one to any other of his
characters with an amazing imagery
and cleverness.
Phidelah Rice is no longer u ques-
toned king of the platform. He is
the most dominant figure In the
world of readers and his supremacy
has been clinched by his dramatiza-
tion of Great Expectations"

HOT SPEECH
ON TARIFF
Rabid Attack on Underwood
Measure Delivered in Sen
ate; Foresees No
Revolution.
Associated Press.

Associated Press.
Washington, July l9.-Senator
Cummins, opening the tariff debate
today for the progressive republicans
declared that the republican party
lost the confidence OF the people and
was driven from power largely be-
cause 1t insisted upon the mainte-
nance of import duties, many of
which We're unnecessarily and op-
pressively high"
The democratic party" he assert
ed, soon will be overtaken with like
disaster because it is about to in
flict upon the country n tariff law
which, with respect to many things,
invites the perils of free trade. and
which, with respect to many Others.
imposes duties that are dangerously
and destructively low, and which,
from end to end, previously discrim-
mates against the west in favor of
the east-that is 10 say. in favor of
the manufacturer against the farm
err"
Senator Cummins declared he be-
lieved the bill would be modified il
members of congress voted their con-
victions, but that 1t would not be
modified, largely because the presi-
dent of the United States, assuming
to interpret and apply the economic
doctrine OF his party. has laid the
heavy hand of his power upon Il
branch of the government that ought
to be coordinate, hut which. in fact,
has become subordinate"
Il would hold myselr an enemy to
mankind" the senator continued, "if,
through import duties, were to
raise the price OF any commodity
which the people generally used, and
ought to use. simply to put money
into the treasury of the United
States"
Il am not one OF those who be-
lieve that general disaster necessarily

will follow the enactment of the bill
now before us. UnQuestionably it
will increase the importation and di-
minish the home production of a
great many things, and will force in
to idleness many working men; but
earnestly hope that its effect in that
respect will not reach the proper
tions of an industrial revolution. 1t
is easy to see. however. thhat the de-
preston which must inevitably fol-
low might be aggravated by other
causes into general disaster"
