For deaf person to use the railroad
track as sidewalk is like walking into

most foolhardy performances that can
be imagined, as it is only lucky chance
that such pedestrian escapes alive.

not have that lucky chance.

Result Of Careful Study.
This letter from Governor Haines is
the direct result of careful personal
inspection of conditions on the Bic
Lost river project made recently by
the members of the state land board
and of much research and study OF
the problem by Attorney General Pet
erson and other state officials in try
ing to arrive at solution that would
be fair and just to all.
1t is understood in official circles
that a decision by the circuit court OF
appeals in this case is to be handed
doWn on Monday next. There has been
talk OF appeal from this decision to
Inc supreme court OF the United
States, but in view of the position TAX
en- by Governor Haines it is reason
ably certain that all such plans will
be abandoned. The governors letter
made public on Thursday is as fol-
lows:

D. n. clinton, receiver, Big Lost

SIT: The members of the state land
board have heretofore believed that
they should await the decision of the
circuit court of appeals in the case of

company before taking any steps
which would serve to indicate the at
tltude OF the state in the settlement
OF THIS most important question. The
tlme consumed in the settlement of
the legal questions involved has been
much greater than was anticipated
however, and 1t must now be apparent
to al that further delays should not
be looked upon with favor from any
source.

board accordingly hope that the ex-
pected decision will be accepted as

The Pocatello Tribune for some rea-
son sadly garbled an item in the Times
to the purpose that has made consid-
cradle trouble for this paper. The
Tribune in comment on the car short
age some time ago, stated that the
Twin Falls papers admitted that there
was no car shortage The Tribune
could not at that time or any subse-
quent time find any article admitting
such facts. Just how the trolley Of
that editor became twisted over a
plainly written article cannot be con-
jected, but it happened. Editor Sum
ner owes the Twin Falls papers an
apology and to this paper in particu-
lar for the garbled report that has
been reprinted in number of other
papers in this state. There has been
and still exists serious car shortage
In this territory despite any railroad
reports to the contrary.

laughed and applauded the merry
