A CHANGE FOR PRIEST.
An Important Move In Oregon
Short Line Circles.

Joel Priest, for years the industrial
agent for the Short Line, is fired, can
ned, discharged, let out. dropped from
the industrial agent payroll.
What? WHAT? WHAT?
Yes. He is made General Agent,
with several times his old authority
and power; with fine Office in Boise,
with force of clerks under him, with
straight and roseate road before him
to go as far as he likes in railroading.
General Manager Calvin never made
better move for the Short Line than
when he arbitrarily cancelled the old
title and job, and gave Joel Priest the
far bigger job of general agent. Priest
is as valuable Short Line asset in
Idaho as a hundred miles of new track.
A railroads patrons are its resources
and Joel certainly has strangle hold
on the affections of the peoplel 1t is
deserved promotion and recognition.

Fair and are Well Pleased
The Richfeld visitors to the Jerome
Fair and Field Day, report fine time.
The Jerome people got up really COM
prehensive show in very few days.
after the failure of the Tri-C County fair
at Gooding to materialize. They had a
general exhibition of fruits, grains,
stock and other farm and home produce;
as well as an excellent program of
sports, including fast base ball game,
The display of horses is said to have
been especially good, though their hogs
and general agricultural exhibits were
not equal to the Richfield Day showing.
They served big free dinner, with
sandwiches, coffee, pickles, fruit, and
other good things to eat. All the Rich
field visitors were highly pleased with
the fair, as well as with the country
and the people.

him do him the honor of believing that
he will serve the whole people without
fear or favor.
Walter H. Copp, for county treas
urer, is an exceptionally competent Of
flee man; as is also j. W. Lundin, for
auditor and recorder. Both have had
wide experience in business account
ing, and there is no1 a reason or even
good excuse for not supporting them.
Both will make capable officers.
Miss Josephine Parry has taught in
the Lincoln county for the past seven
years, with conspicuous success. She
is graduate of the Albion Normal.
and has had unusual and striking sue
cess with the children under her care.
She makes school work infectiously at
tractive, and that is urgently needed in
this position.
Clarence Wheeler is probably person
ally the most popular candidate on the
whole county ticket. He is assured of
election.
V. V. Bower is the most capable can
didate for assessor any party has had
in Lincoln county for years past. He
is an expert judge Of values, good ac-
countant, has had one year as county
treasurer and three years az deputy as
SCISSOR, and he will make and save the
county money.

SOME CANDIDATES.
Brief Stories OF A Few Republi-
can Aspirants.

BrleI STORIES vi A rev IepuDl1-
can Aspirants.
L. M. Zug, republican candidate for
state senator, was a pioneer home
steader on the Minidoka tract, 10years
ago. He published newspaper at Ru-
pert, and was a close student and a
strong factor in getting justice for the
settlers. He spent two years in law
school before Gaming to Idaho, gaining
a working knowledge of law that has
made him an exceptional county officer,
and that will give him strength in the
state senate. He has been so closely
identified with the Carey Act develop
ment of the state from its beginning,
that he would be good man to have
on the legislative job.
The Recorder editor, Chas. J. Lisle,
is the republican candidate for repre-
sentative. He has been in Idaho for 13
years, more than half that time in Lin
coin county. Up to the present time
he has not spent penny on his candi-
dacy. The legislature presents to him
no social or other qualification worth a
second thought. He has, however, a
wide knowledge of the state and its
needs, and his friends who nominated

Few people in southern Idaho need to
be told that this is the likeness of Judge
E. A. Walters, candidate for supreme
Judge; or that he ought to be their can
didate when they go to the polls to vote.
He has been on the district bench for
eight years. and has made fine record
as one of the best jurists in the state.
Without doubt he will receive an over
whelming vote at the November election.

KILLS COYOTE
III. M. Coffman Wins in Battle
With Coyote

With Coyote
H. NJ Coffman tells very interest
ing tale of coyote that he killed out
on the Big Wood river few days ago.
He and John Byrne were coming in for
dinner, to the Byrne place, when coy
ote sprang out of the grass ahead of
them, seized chicken in its mouth,
and made off out of the barn yard.
Byrne was on horseback, and he and
his dog gave chase to the coyote, which
fled still carrying the chicken. They
ran it into the water, which was about
four feet deep, and swift and cold.
Byrne crossed the stream on horseback
and got on the other side before the
coyote could swim it, while the dog was
still yelling at the coyotes heels and
preventing him from landing back on
that side. The animal drifted down in
to some willows, where it tried to make
some headway against the current, but
the dog would not let it land. Mr..
Coffnan, seeing the predicament of the
beast, waded out into the water, and
seizing the coyote by its long, bushy
tail, dragged it up stream until it was
almost drowned, and he could land it
and beat it to death with convenient
club.

DRAGON ALWAYS A SYMBOL
In All Comparatively Modern History
It Has Figured In Some
Manner.

There has always been a good deal
that is mythical about the dragon,
though biologists tell us the skele-
tons of snakes lend some credence
to the notion of flying serpents.
Usually in literature the dragon is
associated with the author of all evil,
the devil. The ancient banner of the
British kings bore the device of
dragon, and the leader of the others
in war was termed the pendragon.
Before the conversion Of the Emperor
Constantine, the old Labarum or
standard of the Roman army bore
bronze dragon and the bearer of the
Roman standard, even after cross
replaced the dragon, was styled q
"draconarius, or dragon bearer. Ac-
cording to the teaching of the Greek
Catholic church-Greece has the
st. George is to be described as
"tropaiophoros" or standard bearer
Gin Creek. In old church windows
and pictures st. George is commonly
depicted with standard He would
therefore bear the Latin title OF dra-
gon-man, or dragon-bearer, and the
legend would easily spring into be-
ing, OF his encounter with dragon.
Still there is Sir Bevis" and Spen-
ser's "laidly worm" to be reckoned
with, and it might upset heraldry to
some extent If we altogether disposed
Of st. Georges dragon In so prosaic
q manner as is here suggested.
