The meetings whcih have been in
progress at the Christian church
lor the past three weeks came to a
close last Sunday. The church was
iilled both at the morning and even

a good attendance throughout the

Troubles by Taking Strychnine.

Otto Seaman, young Austrian,
twenty-nine years of age Respondent
over financial matters and his health,
committed suicide at the home of
John Geissler where he has been
stopping this winter, on Monday ey-
ening by taking dose of strychnine.
Seaman had been a resident of this
section about year. Last summer
he gardened and trucked for living
and was quite we'll known to sever
81 business men in Payette. This
all he went to live with John Cess
Ter and family and had done some
work for Mr.. Geissler this winter.
Owing to chronic rheumatism from
which he suffered severely at times

GROWERS ORGANIZE
AND INCORPORATE
Growers of Southern Idaho and Eas-
tern Oregon Organize for coopera-
ton in Marketing of Fruit-Fruit-
land and Payette Grower on Board
of Directors.

The fruit growers Of Southern Ida
no and Eastern Oregon have united
into one big combination for the bet
ter handling of the fruit and market
ing of the products.
Friday the representative of the
different fruit growing sections com-
pleted their work on the constitution
and bylaws at meeting held in
Boise and filed the Incorporation pap
ers with the secretary of state. The
Idaho Oregon Fruit Growers Associ-
alton will include units in Washing
ton, Idaho, Oregon and Montana. Its
purpose will be to better handle
the fruit of all of the producing Sec
tions and to watch with better GER
tainty the chances for prices in the
eastern markets. The officers of the
corporation will see that no one
eastern market is hereafter flooded
with the produce OF the fruit belts
of the west and that the products
of the different sections are divided
in such way that they will reach
the markets when the demand is
made for them there and not at a
time when they have to be placed in
cold storage at a tremendous over
head expense.
The idea of the growers is to cut
d0uro tba aorpafi+io1 hafu-oar tha
various fruit belts of the northwest
ern states and to handle the products
OF the entire district from one cen
ter and through one board of Off
GERS. In this way, they expect to
keep the price where it will bring in
a fair profit to the producer and
more satisfactory price to the con-
sumer. From Spokane, the head
quarters, the rise and fall of the
demand and supply in the markets
of the east will be closely watched
and the fruit of the producing belt
will be sent into those markets when
it is needed there to maintain the
in the market quotations.
BY handling everything from one
point and cutting down the competi-
ton among the different districts,
the growers believe they will make
the fruit business better paying
investment and will give better
price to the consumer at the stores.
The following officers have been
elected from the Idaho unit;
]. H. Lowell of Parma, president;
R. H. Wood of Payette, secretary,
and the following directors, who
viii serve a term of six months, were
selected: B. F. Tussing, Fruitland;
H. w. Dorman, Caldwell; H. E. Nc
Elroy, Boise; Dr. Bowers, Emmett;

LARGE PAY ROLL
FOR PAYETTE
City Has Opportunity tc Secure In
dustry of Great Imp portance-Co-
Operation and Getting Together
Will Insure Success.

Would an industry located in Pay
cite which would bring to this city
large payroll monthly and employ
from two to three hundred mer
mean anything to this cC immunity?
If it would Payette people now
have the golden opportunity to gel
together and secure just such an In
stitution. By cooperation and get
ting together within the next
few months there can be had in this
city in full operation a saw mill
which will employ large number OF
men and will cut on an average of
LOG, 900 feet of lumber per day. Five
car loads of lumber per day being
cut and handled in tkis city. 1t is
an astounding fact but true neyerthe-
less. All that is necessary is a
spirit of progress and cooperation.
This proposition, with which most
of our citizens are familiar, is of the
most vital interest to every one OF
our community, and if there is any
thing that any one of us can do to
secure for Payette this large indus
try, it behooves US to do it.
Let us get together on this and
help each other to bring it about.
In unity there is strength and by
we can accomplish won
ders.
At the present time, by al the 10y
al citizens Of Payette getting togeth-
er and pulling for this big project,
we stand a good show of getting the
greatest industry that has yet come
to our town.
1t means an addition of one thous-
and to our population as soon as
the mill is in full operation.
1t means enhanced valuation to all
our property and market for our
produce.
1t means greater trade to our
1t means more home consumers for
the products of our farms and ranch
es.
1t means a more beautiful Payette
for it will bring new blood, new
life and greater business energy to
our town.
To obtain these results, however,
we must act. quickly, and do our
small part in the matter. Opportun-
ty knocks at our door and let US
not sleepily turn it away but open
the door with a welcome and a
willingness to do our part.
1t is necessary to work to obtain
anything that is worthy, and in this
,ase it is necessary that we offer
the proper and fair inducements TO
his company.
Let us meet them on a just foot
n and be glad to do our part.
Let US not sleep nor wrangle among
ourselves as to what our neishbor
S doing but do our own part hon
estly and readily for other towns
ire now and have been after this in
iustry and let past experiences be
esson to US so that we may profit
,y this opportunity which is now
knocking at our door and asking cur
hospitality for if we again selflshly
urn over in our self-contented sleep
We may be sure that this opportum-
" will not knock a second time.

.ALLER TRIO
MARCH 18th
Gifted Entertainers Promise Delight
ful Program.

An evening of genuinely delight.
full entertainment is assured when
the Aller Trio appears at the Elite
Theatre on Wednesday, March H.
4 The company includes Miss Char
lotte Bergh, soprano, Miss Clara
Marie Bull, reader and impersonator,
and Mr.. H. j. Nelson, celloist.
Miss Bergh has wonderfully clear
and rich voice which she u5es with
great ease. Her range extends oser
three octaYes. In the words of an
appreciative listener, Her easy
natural way and her accuracy, enun-
citation and best of all her delicious
voice won me completely" She has
been a musician from the time when
she could scarcely climb up on
piano stool and has made notable pro-
gress to her present well deserved
regard and esteem.
Miss Bull is young woman of
great ability, strong in the charac-
teristics so essential in effective read
ing and impersonation. She delights
with realistic interpretations of
child dialect, Swedish, and other
character impersonations of pleas
ing range and variety. So well does
she meet the approval of her audienc-
es that she has been called back re-
peatedly three or four times after
the rendering of successive numbers
of the program.
Mr.. H. ]. Nelson, celloist, is a !
young man of strongly pronounced |
musical talent, destined in the |
thought of critics, to achieve high |
place for himself in the worlds mu-
sical circles.

County Division Defeated.


Despite the strenuous fight made
by the north end of the county the
county division bill was defeated by
motion on the part of Senator
Baldridge to indefinitely postpone
which motion carried in the senate
by a vote of nine to thirteen There
is a feeling among a majority OF
our citizens that the representation
in this legislature was biased this
year and that before election they
wree pledged to things that were
against the best interests of this
end of the county. This view is
taken from the fact that other di-
vision bills with much less merit to
them were supported by the Canyon
County delegates who opposed the
Payette division bill. From the SEN
timent as expressed it is quite safe
to say that county division is still
an issue and will always be one un'
til the residents of this end of the
county get what majority of them
desire. The slogan which seems to
have been adopted and best fits the
situation is the old one of taxation
without representation,
