nj EITHER the psychological,

success. Like gold, it is noncom-
posite and indivisible. Yet it is de-
fnable, for success is simply he re-
suit of doing your best.
More than your best, is inpossi-

Neither God nor man asks you,
or expects you, TO travel beyond
the limit of your capacity. But your
life will not be pleasing to God,
or acceptable to man, if the re-
suit of your endeavor represents
less than the fullness of your ability.
You are not doing your best if
you persistently try to do more
than your capacity will permit, or
less than your ability and -oppor-
tunity allow.
Don't float. swim.
The hoater, making no headway
of his own, can't steer between the
rocks of disaster, or keep to any
course leading to anywhere.
The swimmer, because he is self
propelling, can steer his way into
success.
The world called you. You had
no choice. You had to obey the
summons of nature. Why, you do

Local Option Petition

The petition for an election on the
liquor question was set for hearing
on Tuesday, October 21st at 10 a. n
The petition contains 1172 names,
asking for an election to be called,
and 1855 are required to make the
election mandatory. People VINO
have gone over the list of signatures
carefully say that several non-resl-
dents and minors have signed, ana
some have not conformed to the re-
quirements in giving their post office
address. The signatures also indi-
cate in places that one person has
signed for the whole family OF adults
and this feature will probably be at
tackled. Mr.. Kennedy is out hunting
in the Phasimoroi valley, and Will
probably be back in time to pass up
on this matter along with the others
Very little interest was shown, on
1y two or three persons being present
at the hour named for action.
James Duckworth was there to act
for the drys if anything developed,
and Attorney r. j. Dygtrt was there
for the vets, but nothing was done
nothing said or disputed, and there
does not seem to be anything to be
done on the matter except to deter
mine whether 40 per cent of the ell
ectors are represented on the petition
with bona fide signatures written by
themselves or by touching the pen
and if there are the commissioners
will have to call an election. AS the
margin is close as to the number oi
signatures, there will doubtless be a
rigid counting out of those proven tc
be outside of the pale prescribed b!
the statute for entry in such a petit
ton. Anybody may sign who wants
to, but only those qualified according
to that particular statute can be coun
ted.

BARNEY o'NEIL SERVES TIME
Taken to Boise This Week to Begiu
His Two-Year Sentence.

B. F. O'Neil former banker at Wal
lace, and prominent politician has
lost his battle in the courts and was
taken to Boise this week to begin
serving his two years sentence. He
has been in prison nearly two years
fighting the case, and always with the
hope and apparently with the belief
the he would win and be vindicated'
but the lax system of doing business
in his bank did not bring success and
did not meet with the approval of the
interpreters of the law, and he yield
ed to the decision Of the higher court
and asked to be permitted to begin his
term as soon as possible. Then the
prosecution interposed obstruction,
trying to keep him out Of the peni-
tentiary while they tried him on four
other charges that might keep him in
the county jails for number of years
longer as prelude to the real prison
term.

TWO !. FAMOUS TRADERS IN TOWN
Old Friends Meet in BlackfOOt to Hob.
mob For a Few Days and Talk
Over the Old Cow Days.

Charlie La Fever and Matt Boyle
were in town Wednesday and had
quite pleasant visit together. They
have been for quarter of a century
vieing with each other for the cham
pionship as traders in the Lost River
valley with privilege of coming down
the line frequently to show Black
footers how it is done.
Mr.. Boyle spent most of the week
in town trying to convince himself
that Lost river was good enough for
him, but he couldn't do it. He kept
saying Blackfoot was better, and that
if he had been smart enough to 10
cate here thirty years ago he might
have been in the Carnege class now
and again he mightn't. He wants to
get a piece of property here and get
busy making it the prettiest home
he has ever had, His wife wants
flowers and vines in profusion but
Mr.. Boyle still thinks it would be nice
to be able to pick apples by reaching
out of the window. Mr.. LaFever
accused him of being mercenary, try
ing all the time to reach out for some
thing he can sell aga n, but Mr.. Boyle
protested that he was getting indo-
lent and wanted them in a handy
place but La Fever assured him he
had always been so.
Ye editor went to the depot to meet
the Mackay train Wednesday evening
and found the two getting weighed
at the nickel-in-the-clot machine
That was the nearest they could come
to getting into game, and they
beat it. Mr.. Boyle got on the scales
| first and put the nickel in the slot
and weighed, and then LaFever hello
him there while he goton. Then
| Mr.. Boyle got off and the scales reg
istered La Fever's weight on the same
nickle. If La Fever had been light
er than Boyle it would not have work
cd, but they were long-headed enough
to provide for that, and keep the reg
lister advancing, for whenever it starts
backward it takes another nickel t.
bring it up cgain.

Sheepman Paid Damages

Somebody's herder named Anasta-
sio Armendiriz, camped too close TO
w. R. Jones alfalfa on Wolverine a
few nights ago, and in the morning
the sheep had damaged lot OF al
falfa. The herder was prosecuted on
a charge of misdemeanor and at the
hearing conducted before Judge Jen-
sen Tuesday the herder was discharg
ed, but damages were paid to Mr..
Jones.
Attorney Ed Holden jokingly put
up the defense that 5000 sheep died
of over feeding, making total loss
of $4,000, and that Mr.. Jones ought
to be satisfied to pocket his loss and
let the sheepman pocket his, but Bill,
ly Jones insisted that he is not the
Jones who pays the freight.

GOVERNOR HAINES AND PAR
TY VISIT BIG LOST PROJECT.
State lis Trying to Invent Some Plan

Board Visits Famous Project to
Better Acquaint Themselves with 1t

Governor ]. M. Haines, State Engin-
eer Frank P. King, Secretary of State
w. L. Clifford and Attorney General
J. H, Peterson were here Monday
morning on their way to Powell
where they were met by autos to take
them out over the tract and up the
Lost River valley to see the canals
and dam.
The governor and state engineer
came back Wednesday and the sec
retary of state and attorney general
remained to look further, neither Of
them having been over the. project
before.
The governor repored having left
Powell in two cars, and one of them
broke down that afternoon near Nc
Collum when they all got into the
other one and finished the trip. The
driver of the disabled car had to send
back to Blackfoot to get help to come
home. Governor Haines was worried
about him and as soon as he reached
Blackfoot began inquiring and hunt
ing for him.
In regard to the project the gov
ern said there nothing yet for an
nouncement and that their trip was
for the purpose of familiarizinS
themselves with it's physical features
and trying to find solution of the
complex problems involved. He did
venture to remark, however, that he
had much hope of getting matters ad-
justed within few months.
