WHY is 1T sMueeLED2

The report of the Fafrmort Audit
company, although paid for and deliv,
cred to the Mayor and the Finance
Committee more than six months ago
has not yet been presented to the
council for its action. The citizens OF
Falrmont would like to know what the
report contains and why this report ls
smuggled from the public.

The Falrmont Free Press advocates
a $5,OOO,OOO state bond issue for good
roads. The only way to get good
roads is to pay for them, but before
the people would approve OF borrow
ing there must be a tremendous i'm.
proyement in the present system OF
expanding road funds. Already in
West Virginia great deal of money
is raised for roads. but under the
tomrool, political system that pre-
walls mighty little Of it ever finds It's
way into a road improvement.-Park.

RUPERT CUTOFF.

While in Shoshone on Tuesday Sup
erintendent a. 3. Stevenson Of the
Short Line gave out the information
that within few days probably next
week, his company would commence
running all the eastbound freight
trains over the North Side branch via
Bliss, Jerome and Minidoka. to re-
lieve traffic on the main line to that
extent.
The delay in using the branch in that
way, long contemplated, has been oc-
casioned by the want Of cOaling IA
cilities on the branch. This has been
overcome by the installation of an au-
tomato coaling station at Jerome,
which will be completed and ready
for use within a short lIme. Such
stations are in use at Minidoka, Twin
Falls and at other convenient points
on the system.
Westbound freight trains as well as
all passenger trains both ways will
continue to use the main line.

BIG VICTORY OYER
GREAT SHOSHONE

BOISE oct So-rhe Beaver River
Power company IS left in the saddle
on The Maiad river by a decision hand
ed down in the United States district
court yesterday by Judge DIETRICH.
the court refuses to dissolve the in
junction obtained by the Beaver River
company some time ago restraining
the Great Shoshone & Twin Falls Wa
ter Power company from interfering
with the BA.ver River company's
operations oli the river. Incidentally
the court increased the bond of the
Beaver River company from $4,000 to
$4,000.
Some time ago the worl1men of the
two companies clashed, and at that
time the Beaver River obtained an
injunction against the Great Shoshone.
A short time ago the Great Shoshone
filed a petition asking the court to
dissolve the injunction. That petition
is now denied
The Beaver River company already
has one power plant on the river ard
is now engaged in development work
to building another.

Washed Before Being Returned.

Inspector T. X. White of the state
pure food department is in the city,
and states that he has encountered,
not only here but elsewhere, many vio-
lations regarding the proper care of
milk cans and bottles, many people
being of the opinion that the matter
of cleaning them is solely with the
creamery or dairy.
This is erroneous. and much trouble
may be saved if persons will follow
the provisions of the law. as stipulat-

Session Laws OF 1911.
The violations have been on a
wholesale order" states Inspector
White, and for the protection of all
interests, as well as to promote great

the law be observed" and action viii

not complied with.
