MAKING A ROAD
Fine Highwaysto Replace Rock
and-Sand Wilderness

Work is going on steadily at both
ends of the road between Marley and
Shoshone. The Shoshone people are
hustling with good crew on the heavy
sand section of the road; grading up
the roadway, and hauling in clay to
make a new roadbed where the sand is
now so deep as to be almost impossible.
Some grading has been done on the
Richfield end, just below Morley, but
most of the time has been put in on the
rock work, some of which is very
heavy. When the rock is finished, then
the grading can be done. Dirt will be
hauled in to make good road bed
through the cuts, and clay will be taken
in where there is sand.
Automobilists expect to be able to
make the trip between Richfeld and
Shoshone, in about 40 minutes, when
the new road is finished; and good
driving team would do lit in little more
than two hours, with little effort. Some
of the good drivers would shade two
hours for the journey

DRINK DID 1T
John Erickson, A DcspOndent,
Takes His Own Life.

John Erickson, who was at one time
employed out at the big dam, com
mitted suicide at Shoshone, Thursday,
by shooting himself with rifle. He
had leased the Darrah ranch north of
town, and was making good at the
work when the saloons were opened up
last year after the local option election.
The taste was revived for the liquor he
had once used, but which he had Stunned
for some years; and he began to spend
most of his time and money on the sa-
loon. He lost his team, his crops, his
almost every possession, according to
the story as told to the Recorder editor;
and then his destitute wife and seven
children left him, and the abused wife
sued for a divorce. Seeing what he had
done, and finding himself put off the
ranch because he had no longer the
teams or the apparent desire to work
the place, he took his own life. He was
buried as pauper.

Two Good Officers Going Out
Messrs Horne and Hare, Who Retire from the Haley
Land Office Established High Water Mark in
Efficiency for New Men to Follow

With the appointment of successors
to both the present land Office officials
at Haley, will pass what many believe
to be the very best team of officials
that ever served in any land Office in
the West. Mr. P F. Horne, of Haley,
the register, was a lawyer, with some
experience in banking, and years of ex-
perience in land work of various kinds,
part of it as a clerk in the land Office.
Mr.. C. T. Harte, the receiver, was a
newspaper publisher, who at the time
of his appointment, was publishing the
Rupert Pioneer Record; but prior to
that he had been managing editor of
the Salt Lake Herald for years. The
two brought trained ability and rare
courtesy and friendliness into the Of
fee; and all the experience that any
one ever had with land offices, would
lead to the belief, if not the positive
knowledge, that no better team ever
served anywhere. Both were SO well
qualified, 80 we'll versed in the duties
of the department, that either could

Social Science Circle Chooses

The Social Science Circle was enter.
taindd on Saturday bo the three schoo
teachers in one of the rooms at the
school house.
The Afternoon was one of business.
The roll call was responded to with
lone of My Household Tricks. This
made an interesting and valuable intro
duction to the afternoons work. Then
the regular business was taken up; after
which the officers for the ensuing year
were elected. Mrs. Davies was chosen
president, Mrs Clark vice-president,
Mrs. Lisle secretary, and Mrs. Prid-
more treasurer.
1t is a nice tribute to Mrs. Davies
that, with no campaigning being done,
she received seventeen out of twenty
three votes on the first informal bsllot.
The Misses Denecke, Storrs and Will
Jams proved very fine hostesses. All
enjoyed the afternoon and the dainty
refreshments very much.
The next meeting will be at Mrs.
Kays' home, on April oath.

EASTER DAY
Two Delightful Services Were
Well Attended.

Delightful Easter Day services were
held at the Methodist church, Sunday
morning and evening, attended by large
and appreciative audiences. The church
had been tastefully decorated with
potted plants and wild flowers, atd some
beautiful Easter lilies were among the
decorations. In the morning, Rev.
Leitch preached an appropriate Easter
sermon, which was listened to with
marked attention. The music was a
solo, "Christ Is Risen," by Mrs. Jean
Fagin, and an Easter anthem, ''Now Is
Christ Risen," by Lorenz, sung by a
large choir. In the evening, Rev. Leitch
sang a solo, Calvary" by Rodney,
and the choir sang THE Unseen City,
by Nelson All the music was well re-
ceived and the two sermons were of the
kind one expects to hear in the famous
pulpits of the great cities. Both SER
vices were largely attended, there hav-
ing been no better audiences since it
was built.

COOPERATIVE GERMANY.
BY MATTHEW S. DUDeEoN

German farmer who in his way is an
individualist and as independent as is
the American farmer, has learned that
cooperation is his salvation and be-
lieves in allying himself with his neigh
bors for the common economic de-
fense
How German Farmer Co-operates.
Everything the German farmer does
he does comparatively. If he wishes
to purchase farm he gets a so or GO
year loan from Landschaften bank.
When he finds it necessary to buy
implements or live stock, or seeds, he
uses money borrowed from co-opera-
tive credit society," making short time
loans. He gets his equipment of CO.
operative store which furnishes him a
guaranteed article at the lowest pos
sibIe price. For when cooperation sells
to the farmer, everything from garden
seeds to threshing machines is guar
anteed If he wishes to insure his
property he goes to a cooperative in
surance company, which will insure
his crops against loss by hail or wind;
another cooperative insurance agency
insures his house against fire, while
another insures his live stock against
sickness, accident or legal destruc-
ton, following the discovery of tuber-
culosis or other contagious disease.
His stock cattle come to him from a

SCHOOLS COME HIGH
O. S. l.. Tax Agent Tells How
The Money Goes.

Fred Clark, former county treasurer,
visited Richfield for couple of hours,
Friday night. He is now assistant tax
agent for the Oregon Short Line, having
resigned as county treasurer to accept
that responsible position.
Mr. Clark commented on the fact
that the school cost per pupil is greater
in this part of Idaho than any other
section of the state; and greater on the
Richfield tract than of most the Others
1t is his business to look after these
matters for the railroad company, and
so he is very familiar with comparative
costs. He spoke of one interesting ar
rangement made in one central district
where some of the children live out six
or seven miles from town, too far for

Elect Teachers For Next Year
School Board Chooses Two New Teachers and Two
Places left Vacant Pending Investgation--Big
Attorney Fee in School Case Considered

A meeting of the Richfield school
board was held Tuesday night, the reg
ular meeting for April.
Two teachers were chosen. out of the
four places to be filled. Miss Gertrude
Denecke was selected as domestic
science teacher and supply teacher for
the higher grades. She will take the
regular work of her department, and
will fill in in the regular school work
wherever. the classes can be best ar
ranged. She is graduate of the Boise
High School and has had two years in
the State University, and is regarded
as an exceptionally qualified young wo-
man. Miss Helen Lockwood, a grad
uate of the Albion Normal, and recon-
mended as the very best that the instl-
tuition has to offer as of this, years
class, was chosen for primary teacher.
She comes with such testimonials as
should please the most critical, and the
board believes she should be a real
prize.
No selection was made for the inter
mediate or grammar grades. 1t is ex-
pected that for the grammar school,
the seventh and eighth grades, some
one will be chosen who can handle the
manual training work as well, and ar
range the literary and mathematical
schedule so that this teacher, the do
mestic science teacher and Prof. Gorow
can divide the work to cover it all.
None of the present teachers put in
applications for reelection. Miss Will
Jams, whose work in the intermediate
grades has been exceptionally satisfac-
tory, has decided to return East and
take up university work leading to a
degree. Miss Storrs also will return to
Nebraska, as she has not ever intended
to make the West a permanent home.
Miss Helen Denecke will go back to her
studies in the State University at Mos

COW. Mr. Macarthur has not made
known his intentions, but as he has
fine farm near town which he is devel-
oping, it is probable that he will look
after that. His work with the boys, in
their games and in the class room, has
proven him to be teacher of ability.
The board had previously taken up
the matter of paving the attorneys fees
in the case recently decided wherein
the court affirmed the county commits
sioners apportionment of some of the
Oregon Short Line main line to the
Richfeld districts. At called meeting,
the night of March 4, the board agreed
to pay fee of $3.50 and expenses if
the district should lose, and 25 per cent
of the net cash recovery if the district
should win the appeal then pending.
This agreement was made on the under
standing that the Jerome district,
which was to get approximately the
same benefit from the upholding Of the
decision, was paying the Jerome attor-
neys $4,000 in cash if they won. 1t de-
velops that Jerome did not pay such
sum, and the clerk of the-district went
so far to state that they considered a
$4,000 fee exorbitant, and a good deal
worse than that. At the Richfeld dis
trict was influenced in granting its 25
per cent agreement, amounting to
more than $500 for fee, on the un-
derstanding that Jerome was paying
$4,000, and this understanding is en-
tlrely erroneous. the Richfield board at
the meeting Tuesday night decided to
hold up the payment, and committee
was appointed to confer with the other
litigants and attorneys for a more
equitable settlement. The COMMITTEES
will be Messrs. Walker, Reeves and
Lennon, and they will seek to adjust
the matter on fair basis with justice
to both parties.

go away for a day, or week, or lon
ger, and the other could and did keep
up the work so that nothing ever
dragged over until the next day. The
record they have established for accu-
racy and promptitude, is something ut
terly new in land Office practice. 1t is
with the most genuine regret that the
public will see either of them leave;
for they have given the public very rare
and excellent service. Mr. Horne is
going to Caldwell, to take up his duties
as secretary of the State Grand Lodge
of Odd Fellows. Mr.. Harte will 60 back
into the newspaper field, somewhere in
Idaho; he has not yet decided just
which one of two or three good locali-
ties he will select Wherever they 60,
the psople whom they have served will
remember them most kindly.
The new officers, J. E. Williams Of
Twin Falls as register, and W. U
Hews of Glenns Ferry as receiver, will
probably take office within the next
next month, as soon as their commits
sions are issued.

him his supplies. He asks it to mar

makes wine for him out of his fruit.
Everywhere in Germany you will find
cooperative elevators and warehouses
for storing grain, cooperative socl-
eties for improving the breed OF live
stock, cooperative banks for furnish
ing loans to members, cooperative in
surance companies for insurlng
against every imaginable damage. Co
operative societies are formed to meet

Henry Wolff, the great authority upon
agricultural cooperation, and we have
found his statement true. These 26,-
900 societies have nearly two and a

these societies are credit associations,
which have working capital of over

There will doubtless be several peo-
pie who can say better by the close OF
this week, whether they will or will not
be candidates for county office. The
commissioners fix the salaries for the
next two years, and the re-classification
of the county from the first to the third
class county makes certain salary
changes necessary Lincoln county has
paid pretty good salaries under the first
class designation, but many of these
will be cut away down by the change
to third class county. Some of the
new salaries will probably have to be
so low that no one but an incompetent,
or one who considers the county work
merely as a side line, or some one who
has sinister designs on the general pub
lie, or some local aspirant who don t
have to move or display any special
ability, can consider taking the nomi-
nations; in which case, the county might
pass into slough of despond that
would make the past look like the Gold
en- Age of the past or the New Jeru-
salem of the future. The commission
ers, being good business men, are not
likely to go beyond the law or beyond
the dictates of safe business, in fixing
the salaries so low that inefficiency is
assured.

The district makes a cash allowance for
each of the pupils living out so far, off
the regular wagon route, and the fami-

use their own teams to send the children

of it to make it better for them, while
by shortening the regular wagon route
it saves money for the district.
