with love. pathos and comedy.
OF the company too much can
not be said. Mr.. Cloninger has

BY. Win from,
c. S. A.

On Monday and Tuesday even
ing the BY. team of Logan met
the Academy team in two games
which reminded one of profession
ais playing against amateurs, the
public must admit that our boys
showed great pluck in playing
againt such a team. we believe
our boys would have done
better if they were not so nervous
as we know our boys can play,
but we know that the B Y boys
bad a good team and no doubt
the pick OF very much larger
school than ours, with more
material to pick from. The B.
Y. were a much heavier team
than the c. S. A. and also in their
height, which proved big ad-
vantage over our boys.
Mondays score was 2944
Tuesdays score was 1852
In favor of the visitors

Campaign for Election
of Dry Officials.
PROHIBITION PARTY ENGAGES
IN EFFORT TO UNITR
TEMPERANCE FORCES
UNDER ONE BANNER

Boise, Idaho Prohibitionists
arg preparing to engage in an
"out- town" campaign for the
election of "dry" officials, accord
ing to the statement of A. A.
Phelps, the newly chosen exc
cutive secretary Of the party in
this state.
The national Prohibition party
some months ago inaugurated a
movement toenroll in the nation
Five Million voters who would
agree to support only political
party pledged to the overthrow
Of the liquor traffic. The plan is
being enthusiastically received
by Prohibitionists all over the
country. and many OF the state
organizations of the party are
making 1t an essential part OF
their working program.
Mr.. Phelps cites Oregon as All
example of the splendid results
being secured under this plan,
which has been in operation for
only short time, two counties
Of that state having last month
celebrated the enrolment O
their total voting population
with other counties rapidly
approaching that point.
The temperance element, it 4.
claimed, IS now sufficientl,
Strong to carry the elections il
any state, If the forces would
unite, instead Of separating
among several political parties
as in the past.
The Prohibition state com
mittee believes Idaho is now
ripe for such a union, and will
begin an aggressive campaign tt
that end. Party headquarter'
will be opened shortly in thi
city.

the individual taxpayer can be
materially reduced by chopping
off any state department. In
fact, as has been shown. the
entire government could be
abolished and the result would
scarcely be noticed by the in
dividual taxpsyer paying taxes
in any county of the state on a
valua ton of $1,000. He would
not see that his taxes had been
reduced III any material degree,
"ln my campaign last year |
insisted that the people study
their tax receipts and expect to
Insist upon this study until it re-
suits in a definite accomplish
ment in the matter of securing a
lowering of taxation. Taxes
can only be lowered by general
concerted movement all along
the line. hatever an economy
can be made in state government
it must, of course. be made and
whatever economies can be
affected in any other department
of government they certainly
should be made by those respon-
sible therefor.
"The one thing to understand
is that l am not attempting tc
shift responsibility. but that
am inviting the people to par
ticipate in an honest discussion
of taxation, which can and will
produce results. as distinguished
from the purely political discuss
ions of this matter which VIZ
might expect to witness in cam
paign years but which we should
hardly expect to hear well-mean
ing citizens make at the presen
time. Idaho Statesman, Dec

tello the Annual Convention of
Idaho Seed Growers and the
State Seed Fgir will be held.
1t is the purpose of these events
to give a New Years impetus to
the campaign for the better seed

fact and one which is fully recoR-
nized bv the seed markets OF the
continent. that the quality OF
Idaho grown seed Of all kinds is
the highest. Nature has endow
ed the farmers Of our State with
all the conditions of soil, sun
shine and climate to give plump
ness and quality to all their
farm seeds. 1t is the farmers
part to see that his crops are
tree from weeds, that they are
improved by selection and that
they are marketed to the best
advantage. These questions
will be discussed at the Seed
Growers Convention by mer
who have made themselves
famous by their Investigations
and teaching. Solutions will bt
offered for many of the farmers
problems and an opportunity
will be given for all to present
their seed grain and weed diff
culties before a body OF person.

excellent program had been ar
ranged. Several eight handed
pi, c.s were rendered in a pleasing
manner and the piano solos and
duets were also rendered in fine
shape, besides the four and six

say every one who took part on
the program deserves great credit
in making the evening such sue

Oakley Carey
Act Project
Coming to
Front

The Dawn Of Plenty has certainly
come to the Oakley Carey Act
Project in the Goose Greek Val.
ley, Cassia County. during the
season of nineteen thirteen.
Opened to successful cultivation
by the distribution OF water
turned into the canals in the
Spring we have already seen
bountiful and profitable crops
on many thousand acres of land
reclaimed from the sagebrush
less than a year ago, new towns
spring up, new post Offices and
schools established, and a con-
tinual and increasing influx of
population. One particularly
favorable for the prosperity and
future OF the valley is the lifrt
class and intelligence of the new
settlers. Following are a few
names of our prominent land
owners; Geo. A. Day, State
Land Commissioner; Geo. A.
Smith, County Auditor; D. c.
McDougall. former Attorney
General; L. H. Sweetser, former
Lieutenant-Governor; Hector
c. Haight, State Senator; S. d.
Parke, Editor Burley Bulletin;
and many other prominent men
in the State and outside. None
OF the new settlers live in Their
Todays, but all in Their Tomor-
rows. and with full confidence in
the glorious future, which is not
far off.

the valley and surrounded by

prosperity of the settlers who
were brave enough to be the
first to demonstrate the wonder.
full feI tility OF the soil by invest
ing their money and brains
Almost every acre ofland around
Marion and Churchill has been
taken up and and it is expected
that every acre will be cultivat-
ed and farmed during the next
season. And with the coming OF
the settlers and the cultivation
, of the lands, it is natural to ex.
pect that the new towns in the
Goose Greek Valley will become
thriving cities within "A very few
years.

Will Meet Tax
Issue With
Confidence

Governor Haines has evidently |
determined to carry the war
into "Africa" /" in the matter of
fixing the responsibility for high
taxes. From different quarters
there have come suggestions,
from political enemies of the
governor. that his own campais n
slogan OF the last year-"Take
your tax receipts to the polls"
should now be turned against
him for the reason that taxes
are higher than ever; and that
should be the burden OF the fight
made against the governor in
the campaign of next year
Governor Haines seems to
have no intention Of Sinking
the fight. He expresses himself
as ready to meet the tax issue.
He goes further and asserts that
he will still insist that the voters
take their tax receipts to the
polls, and that they shall study
their tax notices to determine
lust what is done with the
money raised by taxation.
Concerning this matter the
governor on Friday gave out
the following statement;
"The state wide discussion OF
the cause of high taxes which
WAS started by my recent com
munication to the chairman oi
E the state tax commission. asking
for a thorough investigation as
