HAS A CORRECT VISION

C. Shorb editor of the Idahoan who has been reading
twenty chapters of Reducing the Taxes has few thoughts
the subject which think very close the truth and
pass them to readers.
II Commendable Work
The Bacfoot Republican with commendiabe energy and
tepre has been giving its readers through series of articles
thorough digest of county policies and finances thus showing
the people of Bingham county, which county that paper pub
hed how much money raised how raised how spent
and for what spent Each office and officer has been or
being thoroughly investigated Thus the people who
of economzg will have clear idea of what they keep
and pay for and what they to discard
To gather such array of facts and figures have taken
much study and research much time and little money and
the information ought be worth thousands of dollars to the in
tegent taxpayers of that county and all labor of love
and abnegaon from which the editor will receive faint praise
and probably incur the undyng hatred Of those whose necency
and extravaganza he has brought the light Of day.

The shipment consisted of 592 bot

SHERIFF RETURNED THE BOOZE

A large amount of liquor that has
been stored at the court house pend
ing settlement of the Mcclure cases
was shipped back to the wholesale
house at Salt Lake, Saturday.
When convictions are secured in
connection with goods seized, the
liquor loses cast as property entitled
to protection as such, and is destroy
ed. In the settlement of the Nc
CURES cases, heavy fines were paid
in one case under an agreement to
dismiss the rest of the charges. Mr..
Mcclure paid the fines, and the liquor
connected with these other charges
was still private property of Nc
CURE. He also made an agreement
not to sell any more of it, and as
he died and his estate is being pro-
bated, this liquor becomes part of
the property to be disposed Of.
Under an order of the district court
it was shipped back to the whole
sale house, and Mrs. Mcclure re-
ceives payment for it.

LAUNDRY SAVES YOU MONEY

Manager G. F. Smith, of the Black
foot Steam laundry, has made an in
vestment of nearly thousand dollars
in machines to iron cuffs, collar
bands and shirt blossoms without any
friction or wear on them. 1t is we'll
known among laundry people that
the wear of natural. usage of these
articles of apparel is less than the
wear of washing and ironing, and
modern laundry machines that iron
by pressure instead of by rubbing,
eliminates all of that part of the
wear and makes great saving to
the owner of the clothing.
When laundry installs these ma
chimes it greatly increases the operat-
ing expense as we'll as increasing the
investment and insurance, but the
advantage to the patrons is so much
that it increases the volume of bust
Hess. People who have been in the
habit of sending their fine linens away
to the cities to be done up, can now
get the best of work done at home.
