Now that the election is over and

come about. | would advise all vot-
ers to keep close tab on what may
develope and be prepared to correct
any errors that may have resulted.

friends who gave me their loyal sup
port and also to announce that if
the proper adjustment of valuations
is not made, that | shall again inter
the race for the assessorship on the

Will Not Stop Show

Lewiston, Nov. 9.-In the opinion
of Secretary W. L. Carlyle of the
Northwest Live Stock association
and Henry Thiessen, member of
the association, also a member of
the state sanitary borad and prom
inent stock man, the quarantine
recently declared by the state of
Idaho against stock from districts
where mouth and hoof disease has
been found to exist will not affect
the northwest live stock show to be
held at Lewiston, because of the fact
that the stock to be brought here
for the show and sale will not be
drawn from any of the territory
wnere the disease has a foothold.
Mr.. Thiessen, who arrived from
Boise yesterday, where he attended
a meeting of the sanitary board,
stated that that body would hold
a three days session in Lewiston
during stock show week.

Visited Old Friends

Bozeman, Montana, Daily Chron-
icle-Samuel w. Bigham of Ken
drick, Idaho, surprised himself, as
well as some of his old time friends
in this city, when he stopped off
this week for few days to see some
of the cold boys" he knew here 4S
years ago and to see how the town
had grown since he left here in 1869.
He found many changes and sur
prises, but was glad to find a few of
the old friends left. Mr.. Bigham is
now prosperous farmer with a fine
farm about five miles from Kendrick,
Idaho, where he and his wife and a
daughter and son are living in COM
parative comfort. He has been spen-
ding several months with relatives
and friends in Missouri and Kansas,
and is on his way home. His great
est regret when he reached Boze-
man was to find that his old chum
Henry Hellinger had died during
the past few months, and he had
not received the news during his
absence from home. He and Mr..
Hellinger crossed the plains together
in 1866, and were the two from the
train in which they came that STOP
ed off at Bozeman, and both were
employed in the early days by the
late w. w. Anderson at his farm a
mile south Of Bozeman. Mr.. Big
ham is much interested in the pro.
gress made in Gallatin valley during
the past half century and he hopes
to make another visit to Bozeman
soon, with his family.

Leland Items

Floyd Dryden, of Peck, Idaho,
was visiting Supt. Williams last
week. Mr.. Dryden was a student
in the Peck high school when Mr..
Williams was at the head of that
school. While here he carefully
went over the work which he plans
to take at the University Of Idaho
beginning at the first of the second
semester, and, with the help of Mr..
Williams, out lined his course for
the ensuing three and one half years.
The town boys of Leland are
planning a basketball team. They
have asked Mr.. Williams to coach
them; with such coach they should
be able to clean up all the teams
with in their reach.

1t Pays To Advertise

Who has said, cit pays to adver-
tise", we will swear to it and so
will the Lincoln McCrea Hardware
and Implement Company of this city.
Some little time back they placed
an ad in the Gazette that has been a
boom to advertising. People are
sending in by mail for the goods
they advertise. Advertising in the
Gazette is money well spent and the
proof is in the way the merchants in
this city that use these columns are
getting the business. He who
talks down in a well will not reap
the golden dollars, like the man
who climbs a tree and hollers.

kENDR|CK NOW owns
GROUNDS FOR PARK

A short time ago, at a public
meeting, the possibilities Of Kend-
rick, as city beautiful, were dis
cusssed. It was in this connection
that T. B ). West advocated city
park and told how it might be Sc
cured. So feasible was the place
that the audience seemed to be in
most hearty accord. But the most
optimistic did not look for such
quick results.
The Gazette, therefore announces
with pleasure the purchase of the
site opposite the Drug Store for
city purposes.
There is everything favorable to
this new project. Its location is
ideal and the size is ample as it ex-
tends into the hill including several
old buildings. Of course the city
Council will use the same commend
able enterprise in completing the
park as it has in it's purchase. The
plan will be carefully worked out
and in due time the new park will
become a thing of beauty which
some one has said, is a joy forever.
Now that the good work has been
SO auspiciously started the Gazette
desires to urge. upon the Citizens of
Kendrick two other much needed
improvements-a sewer system and
the main street pavement. Good

tary conditions and is most necess.
ary to the healthfulness of all con.
cerned. An up-to-the-minute sewer
system in Kenrdick is very simple
thing owing to the natural condit.
ions presented.
The cost would not be exorbitant
but the advantages would be untolo
value.
Only one other thing would be
necessary to make the City what il
ought to be and that is the paving
of main street. The material fol
this purpose is at hand in great a
bundance. A beginning at least
should be made and the work ther
pushed to completion as rapidly a:
circumstances would permit. With
a beautiful thoroughfare through
our city, property values woulc
double in a short time. Besides
this the people would take an evel
increasing delight in securing gooC
sidewalks, planting trees and rid

bish nuisances. Everybody would
feel better and do better.
We are glad to note that our en-
terprising City Council is taking tn
initiative for better Kendrick ant
we bespeak for every member tn
