COUNTY FAIR is
TO BE CONTINUED,
Favorable Action Taken at Meeting
of Board of Commissioners.

The further existence of the Can
yon county fair hung in the balance
all last week, pending the delibera-
tions of the board OF county commits
sioners, terminating in a decision in
the affirmative. 1t will be remembers
ed that at the annual meeting of the
stockholders of the fair association it
was demonstrated that to hold anoth-
er fair would be impossible unless the
county lent the aid that the law on
ton was adopted setting forth this fact
and empowering the board OF direc-
tors to dissolve the association and
wind up its affairs in the event that
the board of county commissioners
should decide that the institution was
not worthy of public support.
The facts in the case were present
ed to the board by Secretary ]. B.
Gowen and it was discussed in all its
phases by the board this week. Yes
terday the decision was made and it
looks as though we would have anoth-
err Canyon county fair. The fact that
these annual gatherings are of ines
Unable advantage to the county as a
whole, both in educational and adver-
Using lines, doubtless influenced the
commissioners in their decision. Here
tofore the board has always appro-
priated $1,000 to the fair, but the past
year it was cut to $1,000. By the ac-
ton of the board last week the $1,000
lacking in the usua appropriation has
been restored and a guarantee OF sup
port in the regular amount for the
coming year furnished. In making
this arrangement, however, the COM
missfoners stipulate that the money
shall be reserved and used only to
the payment of premiums and for
no other purpose. In making this wise
provision the board is assured that
every cent of this public money shall
be returned to the pockets of the far
mers of Canyon county, who pay the
largest proportion OF the public funds
from which the appropriation is drawn
The board of directors of the fair as
ISOLATION will hold meeting in the
near future, at which time secre-
tary and other officers will be elect
ed and plan of campaign for the
coming season drawn up.

FIVE THOUSAND
RABBITS KILLED.
Weather Unfavorable But Big Crowd
Turns Out for the Sport.


Owing to disagreeable weather the
big rabbit drive did not prove so COM
plete success Thursday, a week ago,
as were anticipated, although fully
5000 of the pests were killed. Nearly
800 men and boys from Nampa and
Caldwell participated in the sport that
was made strenuous by the high wind
the coolest OF the winter, and the
long line that was covered.
The drive started at o'clock and
for three hours the long line closed
in toward the upper dam of the Deer
Flat reservoir. Most Of the hunters
were armed with shot guns, which
kept UP rapid fusillade as the nume-
our rabbits we're routed from their
hiding places by the advancing line.
AS the reservoir was neared the rab-
bits refused to take to the water. They
were as thick as ants on an ant hill
but stubbornly refused to be still a
minute. II was continuous rush
first one way and then the other, with
the gun men shooting as fast as they
could load and fire. In spite of the
activity of the hunters several hundred
rabbits escaped through the line.
Three coyotes were caught in the
roundup, but one escaped. A fine
lunch was served by the farmers al
the close of the slaughter which the
hungry hunters greatly enjoyed.

HAUL THE MANURE AND
SPREAD 1T NOW,

OF all the year now is the best time
to return as manure a part of the
tility that has been taken from the
soil the past year or years. The
ground is frozen so that you can get
upon it with load and this is a sea-
son when the farm hands and the
teams are not needed for other farm
work. If you have grass land which
you expect to break after the next
crop of hay that is a good place to
put the manure. Orchard lands will
do better, too, with a good coat OF
manure now but it should not be put
close to the trunk of the trees for a
home for injurious insects. A light
surface dressing of eight to ten loads
of manure per acre will increase the
yield of grain next year il applied
properly. For this a fine manure
should be chosen and scattered uni
formly so that no Jumps will form to
burn the small grain plants. lfthere
is no other place to put the manure
put it on the fallow land and you viii
be amply paid for your trouble in the
next crop YOU raise there. In region:
where moisture is likely to be low
any year it is not a safe practice Il
pillow manure under soil that is to b
used for a crop the next year, espec
ially if the manure is course. 1t viii
cause the soil to dry out.

people. Judge Bulge would be an ex-
cellent choice. After mature consid-
Grafton | am OF the opinion that Judge
Bulge will not be appointed In my
letter last week | assumed the func-
ton OF prophet but am afraid that
warm admiration overcame the divine
hre and smothered it. Governor
Haines would like to appoint Judge
Bulge, but he will not. There are
three reasons why he will not, viz. ::
Judge Ailshie comes from north Idaho
and Governor Haines would not care
to further antagonize the north by
superceding its only representative in
the court by southern man, espec-
tally as north Idaho is already poorly
represented; in the second place, af-
ter the next election Governor Haines
will have the appointment of two more
members of the court, provided of
course that he is reelected and the
proposed constitutional amendment
carries, both of which are very likely
to happen. This will permit Govern
or Haines to appoint Judge Bulge
and at the same time retain the friend
ship of the north. In the third place
Judge Bulge does not care for this
recess appointment. He would pre-
fer to wait because the constitutional
amendment failing he can become a
candidate against and easily defeat
Judge Sullivan, who will at that time
be candidate for reflections
Compromise Has Failed.
Reverting to affairs in the Demo-
cratic party am forced to admit that
the compromise between. Mr.. Nugent
and Mr.. Hawey has not been accom-
plished. 1t looks now as if there will
be real fight between the two Demo
Gratis. Nugent feels that he is entitled
to the nomination; that he will have
the support of the national admins
tration; and that he can be nominated
and elected. Governor Hawley feels
differently. All, that the friends in
common have been able to do, has not
made the compromise possible. Mr..
Frank Martin is acceptable to both
men but only after each one can see
that he cannot be elected. Neither
will see this until too late.
We had almost forgot, Both Hon.

alive and we'll and ambitious. Sewell
is the William Jennings Bryan of Id
aho and McCracken is the William
Edgar Borah of the Progressive par
ty. They will be on hand during the
next campaign.

THE REAL TANGO
AS Danced by the Argentine Gaucho
With His Girl.

! never saw the tango in its native
country resemble the tango as it is
danced in Paris. In the Vile Lumi-
cars leaving the fashionable hotels,
with ladies dressed in split skirts of
gossamer material, with their dainty
feet in transparent stockings that men
are bound to admire. They go to a
tango tea, where they dance a whim-
steal dance, throwing themselves
backward and forward into the arms
OF stylishly dressed handles, with hair
parted in the middle, to the strains
of a gypsy band,
This is the tango, but it is not the
tango of the Argentine gaucho and
his "novia." In front of the Argen-
tine rancho on quiet moonlight night
one sees another tango. The gaucho
tucks up his "chiripa," filings back his
"phoncho" and holding his dark-hair-
ed beauty by the waist whirls her
around in frantic movement, to stop
suddenly and fix upon her gaze OF
savage ecstacy. The dogs howl and
bark while the dogs play, and when
the men have swallowed glass after
glass of "agurdiente doble" the scene
not infrequently winds up with an
improvised duel with the knife be-
tween two OF the guests, one of them
is sure to rise no more from the
ground. The women scream, the dim
lamps go out, the gauchos leap on
their horses and gallop away, leaving
the dead man to be buried by some
good Samaritan the next morning
and this is the real tango. Prom La
Revue Sud-Americaine, Paris.

TOMORROW BUILDERS.

Born begger, born a king,
We can choose the song we sing.
We can choose what road to go,
Tread on peoples, trudge in snow;
Hand-built roof or white star-places;
Eyes or hate, or caring faces;
Rest, or venturing to the end;
Peace, or danger round the bend
Our own destiny's secure,
Ours, untouched, forevermore
No one makes our joy or sorrow,
Each must build his own tomorrow.
Man paths go wandering, straying,
Many games are ours for playing.
Born begger, born king,

leader of the House, was the first to
act AS soon as the House reconvened
after the joint session held to hear the
President, he offered motion to refer
to the Interstate and Foreign Com
merce Committee the suggestion for
the creation of an interstate trade COM
mission, and for law empowering the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
regulate the issuance of railroad securi-
ties; and to the Committee on Judici-
ary the proposals relating to legisla-
tion designed to supplement but not
amend the Sherman antitrust act. This
motion was adopted, and it was an
nounced later that both committees
will begin work at once and will ar
range for public hearings.
Expressions on the message came
freely from senators and representa-
tives, Democratic, Republican and Pro
gressive. The only unfavorable criti.
cism emanated from Progressive Rep
resentative Murdock, the third party
leader, asserting that the suggestions
for the solution of the trust evil were
inadequate" and would render the
trust evil more acute. One of the
most significant comments came from
Senator Gallinger, leader of the Repub
lican minority in the upper house, who
represents the most conservative type
of Republicanism.
"The Presidents recommendations
are moderate said Senator Gallinger,
"and. for the most part, WISE 1t seems
to me there is nothing in the recon-
mendations that need disturb business
men or that would justify radical legis-
lation. If the Democratic members in
both branches of Congress will formu-
late bills along the lines suggested by
the President, and will abandon their
method of legislation by party caucus,
they will find the Republicans ready to
cooperate with them in bringing about
legislation that will be of real benefit
to the country and will harm no one"

"The Shepherd of the Hills"

Harold Bell Wright's most popular
novel, "The Shepherd of the Hills" of
which million copies have been sold,
has been made into play by its au-
thor with the assistance of Fishery w.
Reynolds.
The play is practically true mar
rative of life among the humble dwell
lers of the Ozarks. 1t touches all the
emotions, and its influence is whole
some and helpful, Notwithstanding sew
eral rough characters that figure more
or less prominently. The shepherd of
the story is a cultured and rough
stranger who comes into the hills, glad
to escape from the vanities and con-
ventionalities to which he has been
accustomed. There Is a flock need
ing a shepherd, and he thankfully ac-
cepts the lowly occupation of sheep
tender, but soon becomes shepherd of
human flock, the big-hearted noun
taineers, their families, and all who
need a friend and advisor Among
his most devoted followers are Old
Mat and Young Mat, the giants of the
/ hills; Sammy Lane, glorious in the
beauty Of young womanhood, and Poor
Pete, a deranged lad who understands
the voices of nature and sees what
others cannot see. There is mystery
of the hills that often terrifies, but at
last the solution is brought about by
Pete and the shepherd, and 1t is the
latter who is most deeply afflicted and
concerned. 1t is hardly necessary to
add that a pretty romance is woven
into the humor, pathos and tragedy.
for the play throughout is one of hum
an interest with conclusion that is
thoroughly satisfactory to Young Matt,
and of course to the auditor.
Messrs. Gaskill and MacVitty, the
producers, have given the play a su
perb scenic mounting and cast that
has been carefully selected for its
fitness to each type. At the Audi
