announcement.

To the Meridian People:
Having decided to open up a
Clothes Renovating Establishment
in Meridian, | respectfully solicit
your cooperation to bring the
matter before the public.
AT present we are doing bust
ness in Boise under the name OF
ada Tailoring Co." but am con-
templating permanent location in
Meridian, providing there can be
found support for family engaged
in my line of business; this, Of
course, is a matter of trial and If
it proves satisfactory will result in
the location of our family (con-
sisting Of four members) at Mer-
idian.
Every little town is desirous for
growth in population, etc, some
individuals are more to be desired
than others; Meridian doesn't
make any exception to this rule
but like other cities wishes to ado
desirable citizens to its ever in
creasing number, citizens who
have and can throw their intiuenct
towards the good. / am sure tina
the adding of our family to th'
citizens OF Meridian can be con
sidered as desirable for man,
reasons; don't say this boasting
lily, but simply to the encourage
ment of opportunities for immi
grating good people TO growing
communities.

ent be confined to the renovatinI

and gentlemen. We have a wide
exf erience in these lines and will
be able to prove that our services
deserve the consideration and
patronage Of Meridian's citizens;
there will be no more need of
sending clothes out of town when
we have come on the ground, for
the quality Of our work is first.

AS we said before, we will put
ourselves on trial, an1 when we
have the assurance of good and
continued patronage which insti-
ties the transfer of our whole
family from Boise to Meridian, we

permanently; until such time We
Eshall put in as much time as is
necessary to complete and finish
the work that our citizens may

The past year, by putting the
tuition at $54, the Meridian rural
high school had but five pupils
from outside districts, from which
the district received S270. 1t is
estimated that at least thirty
scholars went elsewhere, " h o
would have been willing to pay an
amonnt of say $50. This would
have produced, with the FIVE, not
less than $1,000. According to
these figures the district was ont
s73O besides the value the extrs
scholars would have been to the
community. Let US not repeal
this mistake.

OF a strike. Yesterday the ice haulers
went out. demanding a higher wage
per load for hauling ice from the
lakes to the ice houses in the city. So
far there has been no unseemly dis

differences may be adjusted without
calling in Meyer or Mother Jones.
A Washington dispatch states that
the South Dakota law making the
railroads liable for double the amount
of loss sustained by property owners
through fires originating from loco
motives unless the loss is paid in full
in sixty days, was annulled by the
supreme court as a violation of the 14th
amendment. 1t was attacked as class
legislation. because the law applies
only to railroads.

that is both attractive and commend

FAMILY LETTER
Gen. Beadle Writes to The
Homefolk at The Lake
Park.

Charlie Millener, the hospitable
clerk at the Lake Park, and who makes
life pleasant for its guests. is in re-
ceipt of a letter from Gen. Beadle
who is spending the winter in the
soldiers home at Hot Springs. While
it is a Lake Park family letter, Gen.
Beadle's friends will be pleased to
read it along with those to whom ii
is directly addressed. Following
complimentary words to Mr.. Mil lener,
Glen. Beadle says:
1T is a most pleasant winter. The
coolest weather has reached only ten
degrees above. Several times the
Thermometer has shown that figure
about 7 a m. or 6 a.. M, but never
lower so far this winter. Fol- instance,
it is S6 above this morning; and the
weather is dry and practically all the
time fair or sunny. Walking out i,
fine and the air pleasant. The home
is always kept warm : early and late.
We seldom need to wear an overcoat

but if somewhat raw and windy at
any time we slim on a top coat for a
moderate walk.
You would recognize and give the
glad hand to a number of the members
of the home if they should file in to
register. Besides myself you would
know DIR. L. l.. Rewalt who seems
daily to be we'll and happy. We sit
by one another as wa eat our meals
and | cen certify that he retains a
good appetite. But real trf yelling men
would be these: Such are W. r.
Stowe, of Bookings. who was in old
er days at the hotel often, as was
o. Z. Wing, also Of Bookings, and
his SOD also. Then comes Charles M.
Rose whuse very fair and close-shaven
face carried q emile to you. He came
here from Mason. where he had a
land claim-up in Butte county, in
the north central part. west of the
Missouri. / believe Mr.. Edward j.
Greaves, of Mitchell, used to register
as a travelling salesman, 1t is pleasant
to know many of these men 30 we'll. I
remember Mr.. Stowe since the times
in territorial days when / was en-
gagged extensively as a travelling man
as superintendent of public instruction
and as a pubic land surveyor and went
on foot, on horseback and in a wagon,
rain OF shine, and slept in a tent
more than in a hotel and snored some
times in a blanket under a wagon.
There was no lack Of variety-but the
eating was good for we cooked it our
selves.
while we do certainly live we'll
here, and have plenty TO eat that is
good, l would be glad for old times
sake and for good society to sit
with you occasionally at Lake Park
Sunday dinner and shake hands all
around; sure Of q pleasant greeting.
But we may have to wait.
Il started for the Pacific coast but
deemed it wise to spend a good part
of the winter here and then proceed
to California and to Eugene, Oregon,
in the fulness of spring. l shall
probably go to San Francisco within a
few weeks. when good weather is re-
ported there. and thence north to Ore
gon. My plans beyond that are too
miscellaneous to speak of; but cleo
tion day will doubtless find me at
home in the Lake Park and voting
in the Third ward. Meanwhile /
send my regards to all old friends at
the hotel and the numerous ones that
happen in or register in from the rail
road service OF the commercial routes. "

to the outer corridors, where they can

This is the pathetic sidelight In the
trial of Burns, which has been in pro-
gress here since last Wednesday morn
Ing. and which probably will not be
concluded till Thursday or Friday of
this week.
The state has spent most of its time
engaged in the effort to positively
identify the body of the victim as that
Of Sexse. The remains were badly
decomposed. and from each witness
the state has sought to elicit the
method used in fixing the identifica-
ton.
While the plan of the defense has
not been made public it is understood
that Burns will plead that the body
Identified as that of Sexse is not really
his. ~
AS a motive for the crime, the state
is seeking to establish that Burns ex-
hibited a forged deed to Sexse's farm
shortly after SeXse's disappearance.
