Buttes in that section, The name Of
Godin proposed by the Republican
last week is so near the name Of
Gooding county that it would work
hardships in many instances. An
effort is being made in Boise to
have the new measure submitted to
the people at special election to
decide on the county seat and boun-
Diary line but in that proposition is
also being met with vigorous oppo-
sition and the outcome is uncertain
at present.
The matter was brought beore the
committee yesterday afternoon and
at the time of going to press nothing
definite could be learned.

ITEMS FROM THE
LOCAL RECORDS

James Poulson and Lars Gjettrup
of Shelley were arrested Saturday on
a charge of disturbing the peace.
They had been fined $50 apiece for
such an offense about year ago, and
they wanted to have this case come
up for hearing Ior pleas at Blackfoot,
so they were brought to the county
seat. They pie lad guilty Monday and
were fined $50 each.
Was eau ght With Booze.
Charles Whitman of Blackfoot was
taken into custody Monday morning
because he was toting too much booze
around. On 81 earching him at the
Court House a pint bottle full of
whisky was easily located. Chief of
police Drew took it out and set it on
a radiator and Whitman promptly
grabbed it and broke it over the radi-
ator. The chief waXed warm and
Whitman was fined ten dollars.
lockwood Case Uncertain.
County Attorney Good is authority
for the statement that L. C. Rock
wood agreed to enter a plea of
guilty to selling liquor on a charge
made against him several weeks ago.
1t was about the last day for the jury
to be held. and Mr.. lockwood went
to the Court House at the time agreed
upon. Mr.. Good was busy and sup
posed the case had been disposed of
as per agreement. but after discharge
ing the jury he found that nothing
had been done with the case.
The prosecuting witness departed
soon after without leaving any ad-
dress, and Bingham county doesn't
know whether it has lost a good case
or just found man. Mr.. Rock
wood is spending the month in Calf
ornia, and it is likely the county at
t0rney will speak to him about that
agreement when he returns.

FIRE DOES DAMAGE
TO DUBOIS HOME

pictures and other treasures during
the unfortunate incident would have
been very reassuring to them if they
could have witnessed the efforts
to preserve everything.
It is not known whether the fire
originated in the chimney or in the
electric wires. No defect was noti-
ced about the chimney by the fire
fighters, and wires passed on both
sides of the chimney, in the locality
where the fire started.
The damage to the property pro-
baby amounted to $1,000, and was
covered by insurance. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that so many people who
came upon the premises Immediately
after the alarm was given, did not
bring a bucket of water each. If
this had been done the fire would
have been extingushed by passing it
up the ladder and stairway before
the hose was connected. People
remember, when the alarm, of fire
is given, to pick up one or two buc-
kets before starting. Fill them at
some house near the fire and put it
on the flames. Five hundred peo-
pie watching fire are of no use, but
a few dozen people with bucket of
water each and a ladder or two at
their disposal, can put out almost
any fire if they arrive early. A vol
unteer fire company in little town
where they do not drill cften can
not be expected to do quick work,
and the bucket brigade should be
formed at every fire to render such
aid as can be given, for nobody can
foretell what delays or accidents
may keep the hose from being
brought into promt action The vol
unteer fire company is all right in
the long hard fight with the flames,
but thoughtful people will Temem-
Der to take their buckets, garden
hose and fire eXtinguishers when
they start to fire. Concerted eff
fort Of this kind will save much dam
age from fire and also from water,

while it is effective on the fire. soon

thing within it's range.

Last Saturday afternoon fire was
discovered in the roof of the home
of Senator Dubois, temporarily oc-
cupied by Mr.. and Mrs Wilbur
Craig. The house is heated by a
furnace but the fire had been burn
ing low most of the day, and it was
while Mr.. Craig was replenishing the
fuel supply in the furnace that Mrs.
Craig's sister who is a guest at the
nome, heard a queer swapping above
the ceiling of an upstairs bedroom
and found that the ceiling was hot.
The alarm brought out the fire
department and some hundreds of
people, but it was half an hour be-
fore the hose was playing upon the
flames The hydrant was so far
from the fire that the hose supply
failed to reach and team had to
be sent back to the City Hall for
another section. In the meantime
line of garden hose wGs supplying al
most enough to quench the fire, and
willing hands were removing every
thing from the house. There was a
large amount of books, and relics
from various countries which had
been gathered in their travels a great
deal of queensware, glassware. pic
lures and book cases, and every eff
fort was made to save them, the
only extravaganza indulged in being
window glass and other panes easily
replaced The Senator's valuable Ii
brary was carried far out into the
street, and lot of breakables were
laid out in careful array with very
little damage.
After the large hose was put to
work the fire soon was out, but con-
siderable damage was done to the
plastering with the water AS soon
as the fire was extinguished twenty
or thirty people went to work car
ing for the goods and did not quit
until everything was under shelter
again. The Dubois family have been
in Washington D. c.. for nearly a
year, and the tender care exercised

NMdChdy MlHeIJ
Mr.. w. H. Danilson of Blackfoot
has purchased the J. H. Hemperly
interest in the Lost River Milling
company and with the purchase as
umes the management of the busi
ness.
Mr.. Danilson has been the very
efficient manager and secretary of
the Farmers Milling company of
Blackfoot, for the past six years,
building up a very satisfactory busi-
ness for that institution. He has
been a resident of Blackfoot since
10 and is well acquainted through
out the Snake River valley in South
eastern Idaho. About six years ago
he completed a term as assessor and
collector of Bingham county in
manner most creditable to himself
and the people who elected him and
enjoys the confidence and esteem Of
the people with whom he has been
widely associated for the past twenty
years. His advent into the business
life of Mackay is welcomed. He
brings to the mill valuable expert
ence in the conduct of that kind Of
business. His family will join him in
Mackay as soon as his property in
terests in Blackfoot can be dispos-
ed of. Mr.. Danilson is now in ac-
tive charge of the company's affairs.

BUTTE COUNTY THE
LATEST DIVISION

The Idaho Legislature is still busy
building empires and the lptest coun-
ty division ill to come before that
body is the proposed Butte county,
introduced by Representative Parks
of Blaine, which bill proposes to
to take part of Fremont, Custer
| Blaine and Bingham counties and
form Butte county. The new county
has different boundary lines than
the one proposed by Clark of Custer
and as a result lively contest is pro-
missed in the legislature before the
affair is ended.
AS was stated in the Republican
last week, a meeting was held in
, Arco a week ago when several re-
preventative business men of Mackay
were present and the new division
plans were discussed. The first line
proposed was to have the northern
boundary line about as miles above
Mackay and have Mackay as the
county seat. Strong opposition arose
from the Arco people in regard to the
seat of government being located at
Mackay and as a result the meeting
was adjourned with Mackay favoring
to oppose any bill whatever that
would leave Mackay out of the coun-
ty seat fight
The Arco people at once gathered
data and lines for the new county
with the result that the boundary
lines will be practically the same
with the exception of the new coun-
'ty which proposes to leave Mackay
in Custer county and have the north
ern boundary come below Mackay
and take the Leslie toWnsite.
Representative Parks was furnish
ed with the information and was in
structed to introduce the bill form
ing the new county and as a result
large delegation of Lost River peo-
pie went to Boise Tuesday evening
from Arco, Mackay and the Little
Lost valley, to see what could be
done.
Editor Trego who is in Boise at
present states that a hard fight is
being made by the Arco people for
the new county and that the mea-
sure is being vigorously opposed by
the residents of Mackay.
Arco is the logical point for the
county seat. 1t is in the center Of
the new county, and in the center of
the population which alone should
warrant that city as being the coun-
ty seat. The new county will have
an assessed valuation of $4,000
which is as much and in some instan-
ces more than some of the new coun-
ties now have.
The bill carries the name Of Butte
county named after the numerous

The banquet hall would be suitable for the Senate only, buy it is close by the orpheum theatre and excellently situated al times when joint sessions could be held in the theatre.
 There has been no satisfactory ar engagements made to date by the Com mercial Club that has had a commit tee working on the matter It is only a few weeks now until the legislature must meet and many expressions have been made expressing anxiety on this matter.

Southeastern Alaska.

The most notable mining advances in the Territory during the year were those in the Juneau district The Treadwell mine increased it's gold out put. Work was continued on the G.. 0OO.foot tunnel of the Alaska Juneau mine and was begun on an addition al tunnel of the Alaska -Gastineau, which will be about miles in length. This tunnel is to undercut the Perse. verance mine, which, with adjacen: properties on Sheep creek, has passed under one management. The ore is to be carried 10 a mill of 6,000.ton daily capacity, which is to be erected at tidewater. These enterprises, togeth. CT with the continuation of work on the Kensington mine and the reopen
 ing of the Jualin mine, in the Berners bay district, constitute an assurance that the production of gold in Alaska will not fall off, even aside from the discoveries of rich gold-bearing quartz veins have been made on Funter bay, Admiralty island. Two mines were operated in the Sitka district, as in the previous year and the discovery of new gold-bearing quartz vein in the district is reported.
 There was considerable advance Of auriferous lode mining in the Ketchi' kan district during the year The Goldstream mine was again operated, supply a 5.stamp mill. A 10. stamp mill was installed at the Valparaiso mine Two additional tunnels were started to intersect an auriferous quartz vein on the Buggy property, near Smugglers' Cove.

Revolt, BIOOdshed and War
 Feared in the Philippines

toned in the islands have been mak- ing investigations. They have report ed that the finder or an uprising against law and order has been furn- ished and it is liable to be ignited at any time. Preparations to meet the emergency are being made. The centre of trouble appears to be in the Provinces of Batangas, Tyabas, RI gal and Laguna. Manila is in Rizal Province.
 The wealthy Spanish landowners in the Philippines are bitterly opposed to independence of any kind. They have openly fought the propaganda for liberty ever since the American occupation of the islands. They felt themselves secure until recently after the elections-when it was known that the Democrats would be in control of the government. Since then they have felt, according to The Worlds informant that their cause was in danger, that the bill intro duced in Congress by Representative Jones, of Virginia, granting the Ffli- pinos limited independence would be passed.
 To Arouse Opposition.
 It was for the purpose of arousing public opinion in the United States against independence for ehPhilip- pines that the movement was started. In the inception of this uprising 1t was intended that there should be nothing more than a demonstration. But it appears to the leaders of the anti-independence forces that a mere demonstration will not be sufficient.
