Lincoln County times. (Jerome, Idaho) 1911-1919, 1914-07-09

The Fourth was an exceptionally
quiet day In Jerome and the town
was pretty much deserted. Quite a
number followed the ball team to
Shoshone, while others spent the day
at either Blue Lakes or Shoshone
Falls. Several parties left Saturday
morning and spent the two days at
the Guyer hot springs, the town be-
ing pretty we'll represented at that
popular resort, and all who went re-
port most enjoyable time, though
the pleasure was somewhat marred
by rain. Several neighborhood pic
MICS we're held, large number being
present at the home of Mr.. and Mrs
Atwood north of town where mos
delightful time was spent. The da,
was an ideal one In this section anc
passed off very pleasantly, no acct
dent OF any kind occurring to MAJ
the pleasure of the day. Next yea
we hope to see Jerome invite he
neighbors here again.
Lincoln County times. (Jerome, Idaho) 1911-1919, 1914-07-09

Quite large number of our citi-
zens took occasion to spend the
Fourth At shoshone. and all report a
very pleasant day. The management
of the celebration there took 1t upon
themselves to leave nothing undone
that would tend to the comfort of
their guests, and the various attrac-
lions were much enjoyed by the large
crowd that was present.
OF course the ball games were the
principal attraction for the visitors
from this section, as our team was to
cross bats with Shoshone In two
games for purse of 5000 The game
on Friday was very interesting one
from start to finish, and resulted in
score of 4 to 6 in favor of Jerome
1t could plainly be seen that the
Shoshone team was no match for our
boys, and all looked forward to an
other success on Saturday
AS much cannot be said of the
game on Saturday, as our boys found
that 1t was a difficult task to go up
against team and an umpire too,
and as a result the game was given
to Shoshone by score of to 6.
Much might be said of this game, but
we deem the least said the better, as
the contest between these two teams
is probably closed for the season.
AS result of each team winning
game, the purse was equally d.
vided between the two clubs. 1t
might be stated that the management
of the celebration was not RESPONSE
BILE for the scenes that occurred on
the ball ground, and regret 1t az
much as anyone.

GAINING IN FAVOR.

The more the new contract Is dis
cussed, and the better understan ding
that is had of its provisions, the more
favorable do the settlers In general
look upon it. Since our last issue
meetings have been held to further
consider the same. and as an evidence
of the general sentiment of the peo-
pie In this section we might state
that at the meeting held at Barry
more on Monday evening of this
week which was quite largely attend
ed by the representative farmers of
that section, when the motion was
made that the contract be accepted
there was only two dissenting votes.
We give space in this issue to quite
an exhaustive statement by Mr.. Shep
herd, In which he defines clearly some
of the provisions of the agreement,
and it should be read over carefully
by every entryman. Relative to the
selection of two members OF the
board of directors OF the Canal Co.
Mr.. Shepherd defines the boundaries
Of the districts from which these di
rectors are to be chosen, putting Al
rest the argument that has been ac
vanced that these directors would b.
designated in the interest of the com
pany.
The new contracts are now beint
signed up quite readily, and 1t is th'
intention OF the management to cal
an election about August 1st A
only those who sign the contract will
have the privilege Of voting at thi
election, II you wish to have voic
in the management of the affairs o
the tract, you should not delay Il
signing the same.
We feel that 1t can now be sal
that our difficulties are finally sci
tied and that nothing now stands 1
the way Of prosperity for the tract.
