The only fear l have for our peo-
pie visiting here is there is danger
of very easily contracting the habit
of coming here but the habit would
be a good and profitable one so long
as they can afford it. Everybody here
has an air of extreme laziness and
to look at them is to be convinced
that they are here for an easy time
From the standpoint of economy
the winter season is the best time
to visit this part of the country. The
number of visitors is much smaller
than during the summer season and
the prices of rooms are correspond
ingly lower. Upon their arrival visi-
tors have the choice of renting either
a cottage, apartment rooms arranged
and fitted for housekeeping or rooms
at the regular hotels according to
ones desire, size of purse, etc. Ac-
commodations can be found in plenty
during the winter season and this is
undoubtedly the best season for our
Idaho people to visit here. Small
cottages can be rented from $3.50
up per month, but they will find that
as rule, those that are cheapest
in price are cheapest in every other
way and those who can afford a me-
dunn priced cottage will not be dis
appointed. There is no need to be
extravagant unless one can. afford It,
It is astonishing how, in q thousand
ways, the tourist trade is provided
for. Never, in all my travels, have l
seen any place where the comfort
and convenience Of the tourist is 81
well provided for as here. The
rooms in the apartment houses are
models Of convenience for house
keeping and must be seen to be ap-
preciated; in fact. from the stand
point Of the person desiring to keep
house. and enjoy the up to date mod
ern conveniences the apartment
houses must appeal strongly. They
are all that could be desired and fur
nish a maximum Of comfort with q
minimum Of work.
Living is naturally higher than al
home and when one takes into con
sideration the fact. that this is pure.
ly a tourist town this Is but to be
expected. Yet there is not the diff
ference that some might expect. Ev
eeything in the fruit line IL cheapea
than at home. especially oranges

STOLEN WHEEL FOUND

Master Bonnie Robinson, who
with four other boys, missed his BIZ
cycle from the fair grounds last No
vember, has succeeded in recovering
his wheel. 1t was at the home of
Mrs. Hurst. north of town, on the
&nthony road, where Mrs. Hurst
says a young man who was boarding
with her at the time left it as secur-
ity till he could pay his board bill.
This was the last of the four wheels
to be recovered. 1t is almost as hard
to steal a horse.

Dear Sir: returned here this
morning from trip over the state

wise that no recent subject has been
more thoroughly discussed, or has
developed better understanding
than our conference with shippers
and representative members OF

you personally and officially for be
ing the instrument through which
we were gathered together for fair,
frank and cordial dealings, one with
the other, for Understandings ap-
plying the new rates, which Will ben
eft all sections alike, because all in
CAPABILITIES have been removed. The
rates are logical and on parity
throughout the country, and the
basis fixed by the Interstate Com
merce Commission makes rates here
tofore contended for before that
body by Hudson Burr, railroad com

With regards and best wishes,
am, Yours truly.
