WILL TEST THE

E. Zimmerman TO-, Wholesale liquor

campany will probably be carried
TO the supreme court OF the United
States in an effort TO secure ruling

90 the interstate shipment of liquor

ing and Brady improves the chan.
ces of the third man, and in this
case the third man is generally cor
ceded to be Chief Justice Ailshie.
His close political friends, some OF
them at least, admit now that he
will resign from the bench early in
the new year; announce his candi-
dacy for the senate and enter act
lively into the fight.
"What many republicans fear is
that the fight between Brady and
Gooding may become 80 bitter be-
fore he primary election that il
will be carried to the regular elec-
tion in the fall as was the case in
the Brady-O'Neil campaign, and
that no matterDwhlch one wins al
the primary he will go down to de-
feat At the regular election.
''In this connection the program
of Che Bull Moosers is of interest.
1t waa announced here during the
past week from sources considered
reliable that Paul Clagstone would
be the Bull Moose candidate for
the United States senate; that the
progressives would place an entire
ticket in the field, and fight for
every vote that it is possible for
them to get. Guy H. Martin is to
try again for governor according to
this program.
''1f this proves to be correct it
will complicate the situation and
make it just that much more diff
cult for the republicans TO select q
senator. Conservative men IN the
democratic and republican ranks
predict that should Paul Clagstone
run for the senate he will poll not
less than 1o,0 votes and many
place the figure st twice that num-
Der. It Is remembered that Guy Fl
Martin polled 20, 900 votes last fall.
"Were the democrats in position
to take advantage of this situation,
the candidacy of Clagstone would
make it comparatively easy for them
to select q seuator. AS it ia they
are shot to peices about as com.
pletely as the republicans. John Z.
Nugent is fighting James H. Haw-
ley as hard as he possibly could
fight q republican, and Governor
Hawley is preparing to give Nugent
Roland for his Oliver. It is bare.
ly possible that the democrats may
get together in some way behind
the national administration, bul
the outlook at this time ia dubious. ,

The POLITICAL POTS
ARE ALREADY SIMMERING
A Lively Scrap Promised over the u. S. Senator
ship Reported That Paul Gagstone will be
in the Race as Progressive.

Although it 10 ten months until
the primary election in this state,
the republican and democratic
political pots have already begun to
simmer, and long before the first
Tuesday in September, 1914, they
will be at white heat. In fact the
democratic pot has been At the boil
ing point for some time, due TO the
scrap over the division of the feder-
al plums in Idaho, and 50 far as the
situation appears to the general pub
lie at this time the two factions of
the party are drifting further apart.
This would be decidedly pleasing
to the republicans were it not for
the fact that q storm appears TO
be brewing within the republican
camp. The fight will be over the
United States senator, and indica-
tions are that the contest will wax
exceedingly warm. What the out
come will be it is not even possible
to conjecture at this time. The
situation is so complex that 1t Is al
ready affording ample basis for
newspaper correspondents to mix
all kinds of political dope, both as
concerns the republican and demo-
cratic parties. Under date of Nov.
Z, the Boise correspondent to the
Lewiston Tribune, dished up the
following interesting dope on the
republican senatorial contest:
"Senator James Fl. Brady in 8
published statement sent out from
Washington in the past week an
nounced that in the coming cam
paign he would indulge in no mud
Singing; that he would not fight
his battle along personal lines, but
that he would stand or fall on his
public record.
This is construed here as q di-
rect slap at Frank r. Gooding who
has launched his campaign along
directly opposite lines, who made il
clear in his official announcement
that he would undertake to prove
that Senator Brady is unfit for the
position he holds. Just how long
sentaor Brady will be able to stand
by his declaration after the battle
really opens 10 = matter of wide
speculation in the capital among
men most deeply interested in pol
itics. The concenRus of opinion il
that he will finally decide to meet
Governor Gooding on bis own
ground and return blow for blow.

GREAT uNDEvELOpED
TRACT OF TIMBER

Ogden, Utah. Nov. lO.-Nils b.
Eckbe, forest examiner. returned
yesterday from an examination Of
part Of the timber on the Teton
National Forest, with headquarters
at Jackson, Wyoming. The great
body Of timber with which he was
concerned is located at the foot Of
the Grand Teton Range, and within
three-fourths mile of the west shore
Of Jackson's lake. The area com.
prises about 1000 acres. with up
proximately 100, ,OQ0, 900 feet. board
measure, above tep inches In diam.
eter at breast height.
The timber consists Of Engelmann
Spruce. Lodgepole pine and Doug
las and Alpine Fir. Trees ITO feet
tall and with a diameter of four and
one-half feet are not uncommon and
areas can be found running az high
as Is, 900 feet per acre. Small open
parks and sparsely tlmbered areas,
included In the total area account
for the low average run per acre.
The logging Of this tract il at
tractive, since the greater portion
Of the timber i within 1000 feet of
the shore Of the lake, and on . gen
tie dosvn-hill slope. Further back
the land gets sleeper. but usually
with smooth surface. Occasional
small swamps occur. and the brush
Is abundant In places. and while
these are drawbacks they are not oi
particular consequence. The tim.
ber can be logged with horses ol
donkey engines At low cost.
The reclamation service has cut i
small amount Of timber for the con
strnction Of the Jackson lake dam
The log were cut in the summer ant
snaked 70 the lake. where they were
doomed. A tugboat had been con
structed like side-wheeler to pul
the booma across the lake to tn.
dam. and even with this primitive
mode Of locomotion the logs werl
transported verD cheaply.
When the dam Ii raised seventeen
feet ~ proposed, . chute will b
provided for the passage q log
from the lake into Snake river. Thi

70 be driven % Idaho Falls. which |
one of the most desirable location
for q saW-miIl.
Besides the jackson lake timbe
there are several other large timber
ed areas tributary to the Snake rIy
er which would secure . permanen
sawmill operation At that place.
Representatives of various lun1he
companies have been looking owe
this proposition, and Il seems tha
1t is but question Of short tim
when the monareha Of jackson Hol
will fall before the axe.
