A GLIMPSE AT A TRUE PICTURE.
Even congressional Investigations
into industrial conflicts like that in
Colorado do not always convey to
the public the true picture of real
conditions. In the first place, their
Testimony is SO voluminous that it is
difficult for the public to absorb it
and q tremendous task to condense 1t
Into a symposium that fairly expresses
~ all. In the second place, ~selfishness
Influences testimony quite as much
as other conduct and many of the
witnesses are sure to be prejudiced.
IN the third place even the congress-
men ut times r not qualified to act
as judges and under the circumstan-
Sces do not have the responsibility of
the Judge. Therefore 1t is welcome to

The Round Table Club met on
Monday evening at the home OF. Mr..
and Mrs. II. d. Butterfield. After two
charming songs by Mrs. w. c. Hunt
er, the vice-president, Mrs. II. d..
Hitchcock, intNduced DIR. Samuel
Weir, of Dakota Wesleyan, who gave
"a very interesting and instructive
talk on child study.
The speaker, who is an
lodged authority in the state on edu-
%cational matters, presented what he
termed was an outline of the subject.
Commenting upon the immense am
cunt of data collected by interested
observers, he questioned the POSSIBLE
ity of impartial judgment on the part
of the fond parents. He spoke OF the
various welfare movements as an out
growth of modern investigations.
These he declared, are the direct
answers to the vital question of how
we can give the best conditions under
which the individual may reach his
highest possibility. In illustrating his
point DR.. Weir drew freely upon that
fund of witty anecdote and allusion
for which he is so we'll known.
The address was listened to with
close attention and all those present
felt that they had been given a vision
of the subject calculated to inspire
further thought and study.

Mrs. C. M. Tull and Miss Georgia

Light refreshments were served, the
hostess being assisted by Mrs. Hitch

BIG POTATO MEETING WAS HELD

Last Saturday at the Isis theatre
there was large gathering Of farm
ers to hear S. j. Donaldson's address
on the subject of the potato market
and the reasons for the low price
which confronts the producers here
every year at harvest time. It has
become a settled condition that
neither war nor crop failures else
where disturb, and Mr.. Donaldson set
forth the conditions created by the
management of the shipments into
the distributing centers, as setting
the price automatically as the result,
and showed that such conditions will
continue until the people controlling
the crop and the shipments alter it.
The remedy advocated was closer
Organization, to the end that the
product shall be better distributed
and avoid Cutting some markets
while others are not supplied. The
Organization should be great enough
to gather and distribute the product,
to the end that consumption shall
be as great as possible and as steady
as possible, and at reasonable prices,
the dealers making fair profits along
with the growers.

THEY GAVE IT TO YOU

If there is anything better than
usual in this issue of the paper, it is
because the advel tisers bought 1t for
you. Their patronage enabled us to
issue the accompanying artistic cover

throughout the work. To the gener-
osity Of the advertisers, the communi-
ty is indebted for its newspapers ut
all times, for they pay most of the
cost and We invite the readers to
give sincere study to the announce
ments of the various firms in this
edition. They have good goods to
offer, they are people who help build
up the, town and pay the taxes and
support charitable work and in every
way do their part We think the
spirit Of fair play would dictate that
they are entitled to first considera-
tion when the reader goes shopping
See the advertisers first" that's
the way we do when we want to give
the readers something extra. If you

out going around the Horn as they
have been doing.
The matter was passed upon by
the voters ct the November election,
and Blaine county gave a majority
in favor of division and the creation
of Butte county, but they voted
against creating another county from

the rapid growth of his business is
evidence of the usefulness of the
business.

SUDDEN DEATH OF
JUDGE j. @. FISHER
Pioneer Citizen and Civil War Vet
eran Passed Peacefully Away Tues
day Morning After Long Life of
Usefulness.

j. c. Fisher departed this life at
his home in Blackfoot, Tuesday
morning, December eighth, just be-
fore dawn, and the funeral was con-
Quoted on Thursday afternoon from
the Methodist church, Rev. R. L. L.
Barnstable officiating.
Mr.. Fisher was 80 years old and Is
survived by his wife and four sons,
all of whom were here for the fun
eral. Harvey, the eldest lives at Ida
no Falls, Charles v. and Fred at
Blackfoot and Earl at Oakland, Cali

Mr.. Fisher was born near Oswego,
New York, and lived in Wisconsin,
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas before
coming to Idaho. He has lived here
since 1885, and moved his family
here in 1887 He has filed num-
Der of positions of public trust, and
has been known as Judge Fisher"
during most of his residence here.
He was 27 years old when the
Civil War began, and he enlisted in
the 18th Wisconsin infantry, serving
for three years, until his term of en-
listment expired, His regiment saw
active service throughout. and in the
battle of Shiloh more than half Of
them were killed. Mr.. Fisher had
one bullet hole through his clothing
at the close of the fight, another
through his cap, and wound in the
groin where spent minnie ball did
him an injury that seemed slight at
the time, but which gradually in
creased its annoyance and trouble
for over fifty years, and was source
of much suffering up to the time Of
his death.
In 1854 Mr.. Fisher enlisted in the
First Minnesota battery, Was with
Sherman at Chattanooga and Mission
Ridge, and made the great circuit of
the march to the sea, and north to
Washington, participating in the
Grand Review at the capital at the
close of the war. He was in 19 of
the hard-fought battles of the war,
besides many skirmishes. He was
married in 1868 to Miss Melvina
Moore in Wisconsin, and she still
survives him.

ONE OF THE BEST

OF the several Christmas editions
of newspapers that have been issued
in Blackfoot, this one is the best
in workmanship and represents per-
haps the least~extra effort yet re-
quired to produce one.
Not many weekly papers have
enough type in the various sizes and
styles and enough of the other me-
chanical equipment, to set such a
large number of advertisements at
once. 1t requires hundres of pounds
of materials to do this, and 1t ia
usually accomplished by setting a
few pages, printing them and then
using the same materials to set and
print the rest of it. This office has
been adding to its equipment and
undermining it, so that 1t presents
clean, sharp, artistic printing. Ad-
vertisers appreciate this, and the gen.
erous patronage of the business
houses in this edition bespeaks their
appreciation of the service
The Idaho Republican lays no
claims to doing things "On the
cheap" ut it does set up the claim
OF Dependable service" The price
of subscription and the price of its
advertising space are higher than
most weekly papers, and we try to
make 1t worth more.
Blackfoot is developing some good
writers of advertising, and we cite
our readers to the evidence OF It in
our advertising columns. Several in
this issue show expecial merit on the
part of those who prepared them.
