Memorial Day
Proclamation.

Memorial Day is made a holl-
day by our laws and will be gen.
orally observed as such by our
people. 1t will not be inappro.
pirate however. for me to invite
public attention to this day and
particularly to the character of
exercises which should be observ-
ed thereon.
1t is oftentimes referred to as
the Soldiers Sabbath. 1t is a
day set apart OH which to pay
honor and respect to the memory
OF those heroic men. living and
dead, who in the hour Of our
greatest national peril freely off.
cred their lives and honor upon
our country's altar that it might
continue to live, 1t is day SAINT
ified by devotion to duty, to the
ca'l OF country, to the highest
ideals OF patriotic service, and It
is therefor, a day on which pub
lie and private observances
Should partake OF a religious
character; All unseemly games
and noisy sports and shows
which serve to distract a attention
from the sacredness OF the occas-
ion should be discouraged.
Let us place flowers upon the
graves of the departed, let us add
something of pleasure to the lives
OF those OF that grand army Who
still remain with us, and let us
seek to inspire in our children
the same patriotic love Of coun
try and devotion to duty which
animated those noble men of an
earlier day.

Building Boom in
Progress.
GREAT NEED OF Coon HOUSES
FOR RENTING PURPOSES.

The new Snake River Imple-
ment Building will soon be ready
for occupancy: and very shortly
ground will be broken for the
new Commercial Club building
on Center and Main streets. The
new Mecham and Douglas build
ing is nearly completed. Many
new houses are being built, and
we look for a great increase in
building this summer,
1t would be good speculation
for those having lots to build
good houses on them for renr, as
there is II continually growing
demand for more houses tor resi-
dence purposes. Rents are hie h
and houses for renting are scarce
cur new settlers are coming in
fast, and people already here are
complaining of the shacks they of
necessity have to locate in.
There is money in the renting
of residence houses, and ALWAYS
the opportunity of selling at a
hansome profit.
With good schools, fine climate
good water. and with the other
great advantages here, Oakley
will be the residence town of
Southern Idaho.

ufacturers under
the New Tariff.

The Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce will be call
ed upon to investigate into the
facts OF the case whenever manu-
factures reduce wages with the
excuse that the tariff is to blame,
Also, If any manufacturers enter
into any agreement toclose down
their shops and factories, or to
reduce wages, they will be prose

The Underwood Bill provides
for Bureau of Foreign and Do

resembles the proposed Tariff
Board.
This board will investigate in.

that the tariff was injuring eth

There will be great powers Civ

to commercial and tariff matters
Enthusiasts say that the new
board will settle the trouble be-
tween labor and capital, and
will forever lay the ghost OF bus

tariff changes.
