After careful consideration I have
decided tc accept the nomination
which has been filed placing me in
tie field by the Progressive party as
States Senator from Canyon County.
For my brief residence in Idaho Of
about s years 1 was CT the opinion
that sufficient honors had been con-
ferred upon me and my desire has
been to make good that the people ct
the State n the position now occup-
led without fear or bias. without be-
ing given further honcrs. However
shcCld a majority of the voters CT
Canyon County decide that / serve
them as a member of cur State law
making body l can assure them that
the same conscientious effort will be
made fer a better county and a bet
ter Idaho as has been given to the
work that has occupied part of my
daily life in othre fields in which the
people of this county and the State
at large are vital1y interested and
which has resulted in bringing about
reforms that are proving of benefit
to every taxpayer. I go into this con-
test urpledged and unfettered and
with a sole idea of serving the peo-
ple cf the County and ths State to
the best of my ability, making every
honest endeavor to bed1 frame or
adjust the laws of our State, SO that
cur present citizenship may take on
renewal courage and thousands Of
families from ether States attracted
to our midst.
1t is not my purpose to make any
extensive or expensive campaign for
this office. In the first place l can
not afford it and l do nct believe in
buying any office, and in the second
place the people of the county are
fairly weM acquainted with me and
know whether they want me in this
position or not

At 2:45 Sunday morning another at

containing approximately fifteen tons
aGd which was located fifty or sixty
feet from the ice house was fired.
Tne alarm was sounded by the engine

family of Manager f. 3. Orcutt
When Mr. Oreutt turned on the lights
in the house several shots were fir

stack evidently with the intent CT
causing O. hesitancy on the part cf
Mr.. Orcutt or any other person ap-
preaching the fire before it got we'll
under headway. However Mr.. Orcutt
and a large number of the neighbors

the assistance of Payette people
who Immediately responded to the
alarm the large ice house was sue
cessfully protected and received no
damage. Mr.. Orcutt however suffered
a loss of about $3.50, the fire having
consumed his hay and the large
derrick beside it
That there has been a deliberate
attempt to burn the ice house there
Is no doubt, but not the slightest
reason for such an attemrt onH be |
No foreign or outside labor

A SUCCESSFUL AUTO TRIP.

A 1000 mile Auto trip has just been
completed by NJ. ]. Higley. of the
Idaho-Oregon Fruit Growers Asa'n.,
in the interest of the organization, in
the Twin Falls, Buhl and upper
Snake River territory. ~
The new sections of orchards were
visited and found to be in most flori-
shing condition and the growers,
whether they own bearing orchards
or not, are very optimistic toward
the cooperation plan of the Distribut-
ors and many are signing up where
they can or are favored with a dis
triet organization. DUNG the trip
Manager Higley organized 81 district
at Kimberley with strong repres-
entation of over 80 members with
a large acreage. Other, District
Associations are being formed at
Hagerman, Bliss, King HiIl,5 Jerome
Wendell, and Mountain Home in
this State. Nyssa and Ontario have
just about completed organizations to
affiliate with Idaho Ore gon and
Halfway, Oregon, has applied TO the
Assn for a District office, go
The large increase in membership
during the past few months is demon
strative of the way the records of
the Distributors have been received
by the growers. The enormous acre
age which is due 10 come into bear
ing within the very near future IS
welcoming the Distributors - efforts
for the betterment of the marketing
conditions and handling facilities.

tions Bigger and Better Buidfrg.'
At present only the first two flccrs

which the bath and dressing rooms
are now located is still unfinished.
The plasterer has completed his part
of this task and the other workmen
VIII make great strides toward the
completion of this part of the build
ing befoe the end of the present
week. The date of its completion
will be somewhat determined by the
rapidity with which the cement floor
sets up and is ready for the carpente
work.
The visitor who is familiar with
the arrangements of the interior Of
the old building is at once impress
ei with the alterations and the great
improvements that have been wrcugh
within the past six months. An air
of congeniality and convenience mark
edly characterizes the place. When
the additional equipment has been
received and installed still further
advance will have been made in the
attractiveness and the practical
value of the building.
The Hobbies, game rooms ladies rest

The office now placed directly fac
ing the main entrance on the North
side is constructed with good light |
ing, interior arrangement well adapt

to a proper supervision of the entire
first floor.
The dormitory furniture is nearly |
all in place. The rugs are yet to ar
