SULTZER RECEIVES
UNIQUE OVATION v
AT N. Y. THEATRE
Curtain Rises Between Acts and the
Whole Company Applauds Him.
Crowd Crys for Speech at Show
House Greeted by Crowds Outside.

NEW YORK--Analyzirg the events
subsequent to his impeachment as
governor, William Sulzer in an open
air speech Thursday night to voters
in the Sixth assembly ditrict, where
he is the Progressive candidate for
the assembly said:
The appeal to the high court OF
public opinion from the packed court
of impeachment is resulting in an
overwhelming reversal of the Muir
ply verdict.
Sulzer said that he had read that
Charles F. Murphy now bitterly re-
penis his failure to order the high
court of impeachment to disable me
from holding public office"
1.-THE chief had grown so used to
getting away with his jobs that he
never dreamed that he would be balk
ed when he threw me out of the gov
ernorship. He Is mortified to learn
that while he had me lynched like a
horse thief and the mob left me for
dead, there is still breath enough in
my body to fight corrupt bossism.
''Mr. Murphy now is talking ABOUT
having me indicted on the evidence
which President Justice Cullen re-
fused to consider. They do not dare
submit my case before a fair jury.
If l could get chance like that I
would hail it with delight"
Sulzer attended theatre Thursday
night before his automobile speech
making and was recognized as he sat
in a box beside Mrs. Sulzer. The
audiance cried for a speech. At the
end of the first act, after the eur
tain had descended, it went up sud
denly and the entire company faced
the former governor and applauded
him. Sulzer made brief speech,
attacking Charles F. Murphy. He re-
ceived another demonstration in
front of the theater as he was leav-
ing.

BITTER BLACKMAILING PLOT.
Attempt to Blacken Character of Man
Who Testified Against LOrimer.

CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-The trial of
Daniel Donahue and Isaac Stiefel be-
! fore Judge Pam in this city brings an
echo of the notorious Lorfmer scan
dial. Stiefel and Donohue are charg-
ed with conspiracy to defame the
character of Clarence s. Funk, for
merly general manager of the Inter-
national Harvester company.
Funk testified in one of the Lori
mer hearings that he had been APP
preached by Edward Hines who was
seeking the election of Lorimer as
United States senator. Hines, he said
had asked for contribution of $1O,-
900 to be used in sending Lorimer to
the senate. This contribution, Funk
testified, he had refused to make.
Some time later suit was brought
against Funk by John C. Hennirg for
alienation of his wife's affections.
| Henning lost the case and disappear
ed. Then Mrs. Henning, who had
ell the time been living happily with
her husband confessed before grand
jury that the suit was a "frame-up"
for the purpose of destroying Funk's
character and discrediting his testi-
mony in the Lorimer case. She ac-
cused Donahue, who had acted as
Henning's attorney, of having won
her over after she had refused her
husbands proposition to act as dunn
my to blacken Funk's good name.
Stiefel is detective, and is charg-
ed by the state with having procured
Grand Pacific hotel bell-boys to tes-
tify that Funk had been to that hotel
with Mrs. Henning. The bellboys
have since confessed to perjury.
Aileen Heppner testified at the for
mer trial that she had seen Funk and
Mrs. Henning together on various oc-
casions. She also has been indicted
and will be tried later on defamation
charge.
Interest in the conspiracy case has,
largely centered in Donahue, said to
be the direct representative of the
higher up powers by both Henning
and his wife. Consequently little at
tention has been paid to the detective
Stiefel.

IDAHO SPUDS IN
RHODE ISLAND
Bingham County Exhibit at Utah Fair
the Result of Many Inquiries
Coming From the East.

The exhibit sent from Blackfoot to
the Salt Lake fair and exhibited in
the Keith O'Brien windows has at
tracted great deal of attention, and
firm in Rhode Island is the latest
to take notice Of it. They wrote 70
w. l.. Sawtelle of Salt Lake City
asking him to send them some of tho
products and he sent to Mr.. Braley
at Blackfoot to see if he could collect
something similar for them, which Of
course he did. The country being
full of it and teams lining all the prin
cipal roads, all he had to do was 10
get out and say what he wanted and
take it.
T. G. Clegg has a thousand sackg
or so of what he calls Bull FMoos8~
potatoes, and he packed a few IN
them to send. We say "a few" b.
cause it would be unnecessary To
send many for they are large and
six of them would make a meal for
congress. They are some that MI.
Clegg developed himself and he ex-
hibited four of them that weighed
eleven pounds total. They are oval
in form, white and quite smooth. Mr..
Clegg doesn't warrant all of them to,
grow to the three-pound size, but he
had an exhibit at the fair which in
dictated that they would satisfy all
demands for size.

PROOF Ct ion record was es!c .!ished !:y
= Frye, on 15 acre tract In the
Deer Flat section this season. The Is
acres yielded an everage of 500 bush
els of fancy Idaho Rurals to the acre
and we're sold by the grocer for an
average price of SO cents per bushel
giving him gross return of $500
for his 15-acre crop. A large part of
the crop ives bought by neighboring
farmers for seed and brought fancy
price.
A large crowd of Caldwell business
men chartered a special car on the
Caldwell Traction company, visited
the farm and watched with interest
the potato digger in operation, and
the gathering of the enormous tuber
crop. Mr.. Frye, who is former
Greeley grower. explained his method
to the interested group, which includ-
ed several farmers.
Crop rotation and careful selection
of seed are the most important fac
tors in successful potato growing he
explained. Under his method his land
is planted to potatoes every third
year, rotating with grains and alfalfa.
He cultivates his potatoes but once
a short time after planting, and ordi-
nary seasons waters them five times.
He believes that potato scab is often
caused by too much water.
Next season Mr.. Frye intends 20
plant so acres to potatoes and conf
IDENTIFY expects to maintain his 900
bushels average. 1t is said that the
potato average in the Deer Flat sec
ton next year will approximate 12,-
600 acres.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT IT?

A while ago we hired boy to cut
our lawn. He looked like a good
grass cutter, so we told him we
would give him half dollar when
the job was done. He went right OF
it, while we sat on the porch and
watched. We were pretty glad lie
was the fellow who was doing the
work instead of ourselves, because it
was pretty hot and every once in a
while he had to stop to shake drop
of sweat off the end of his nose. BY
and by he allowed he'd quit and fin
ish up after supper, when it was cool
err and we didn't blame him a bit.
After while he came around sort
of sheepishly and wanted to know if
he could have his fifty cents, because
there was something he couldn't get
along without another minute, so to
speak. We looked him over and
gave him the money. A week later
We had to cut the rest Of the grass
ourselves because our grass cutter
had kept putting it off until his folks
took him out of town for a couple Oh
weeks. We haven't any doubt he
would have cut it some time, but we
couldn't wait. Now what do you
think about that sort of business
methods?

that the student has had sound and
practical experience in one or more
of the departments assigned. In
this case, he is given advanced credit
and is not required to duplicate his
work unnecessarily, since the company
is frankly looking forward to his

SCHOOL OF
PRACTICAL RAIL-
ROADINC FOR SIP.
Men Paid From $500 to 800 Per
Month While Taking Course.-Js
Open to Employees Only. and Gives
Them any Training They Desire.

Seven young men from the ranks
of employees of the Southern Pacific
have recently been awarded scholar
SHIPS in the school of practical rail-
( reading which that company main
tains, according to an announcement
made at the general affices today.
They are A. c. Posey, lease clerk !;
John A. Starbuck, freight clerk;
Warren Tucker, station baggage
man; J. J. Sullivan, assistant chief
clerk on the Tucson vision; P. A.
Warrack, file clerk; w. M. Whit
ney, a roughtsman; and F. E. Yoa-
KUN, a yard clerk. Five of the sew
en- are college graduates.
The Southern Pacific's school of
railroading, under Norman Collyer,
is unique among educational institu-
tons. Officers of the company con-
duct the course and the students are
scattered from Portland to Ell Paso.
There are no paid instructors and no
tuition fees. The students are un-
der salary. None but company en-
playes are eligible and no married
men are appointed, in which respect
there is resemblance to the schools
at Annapolis and West Point. The
students are between the ages of 25
and 80 and are chosen for grit, am
bition, intelligence and efficiency
that they have shown in their pre-
vious work.
The Southern Pacific course covers
period of forty-two months, approx
imately that of college curriculum.
The beginner starts at medium siz-
ed station, where he serves months
as warehouseman, baggageman and
clerk, performing the actual work as
any other employe. He is then trans
ferred to another division to spend
three months in track work. After
he has learned to handle a spike
maui and raise low joints, he is NOV
ed to the Flood building and puts in
three months with the superintend-
ent of transportation. Next comes
three months in the shops, then the
same period in train service; than
three months in the accounting de-
partment; and finally three months
in the tariff bureau of the traffic de-
partment, making two years in all.
If he has met the rigid require
ments Of the course, the student is
now ready to choose whether he will
follow the operating, the traffic, or
the accounting branch of the rail-
road business. In whichever line he
elects, he is given special opportunity
for experience and advancement.
II the student chooses the operat-
ing department, he returns to the
shops and the roundhouses for fur

TOOK HER OWN MACHINE.

1t seems that there are two sides to
the story Of the missing typewriter
told in the columns OF the Tribune a
lew days ago. 1t is a fact that there
is still one Of the typewriters miss
ing and the agent has not been able
to locate it, but it also appears that
the party who was supposed to have
made away with it was not guilty. At
any rate, it is stated that the one who
WAS suspected had brought a machine
to the city at the opening of the SEES
sion OF the Legislature and it was that
one being put on the train that caused
all the trouble. The story was simply
brought about by a chain Of circum-
