impressed all by his sterling charac-
ter, his exemplary habits and his de-
votion to duty. And when he aspir-
ed to the responsible position of
assessor and tax collector of this
county at the election in 1912, he
received flattering vote which
testified to his growing popularity.
He entered upon his work with the
enthusiasm, vigor and painstaking
conscience that had characterized
his labor in private life, studied the
intricate problem Of taxation as no
former assessor had done, and
brought the work of the Office to
such a standard of efficiency that he
easily ranked among the best asses
sors in the state. Naturally he
would get enemies, no man in public
life is spared therefrom, and when
he sought reelection last year a
most bitter and vigorous campaign
was waged against him to accomp-
lish his defeat at the polls. So
strong had he grown however, that
in spite of the most bitter attacks
hurled against him by the opposi-
tion, he was reelected by the hand
some majority of 498 votes over his
opponent.
The Sad affair, which so suddenly
checked a promising career, caused
expressions of deep and widespread
sympathy, and particularly was this
pronounced among Mr.. Martinson's
associates in public life. The board
of county commissioners, who had a
public duty to perform, acted
promptly in the matter, but express
sions of their feelings told with what
genuine regret they were forced to
take action. Mr.. j. G. Venniger-
holz has been placed in temporary
charge of the assessors office.

Famous Potlatch country. This
lake is fed by the drainage of the
hills of the canyon and is surround
ed by large amount of excellent
timber which makes it an ideal spot
III natures rest domain. This lake
is naturally situated for just the the
purpose that it is going to be used
for. The owners have placed a keep

front. This house will be the COM

Chicken Enterprise

One of the industries of Kendrick
which is a great help to the lovers
of chickens is located in the west
end of town and owned by Charles
Sattler. Mr.. Sattler informs US
that he has over one hundred and
sixty little chicks this spring and
expect that before Matching season
is over that he will have about two
hundred and fifty. This may sound
like small amount of chickens to
some of our large ranchers, but for
a little spot of ground in the crooks
of the potlatch creek it is quite a
sight and something to think about.
1t shows that the country is adapted
for the business and that the fowls
are being raised by an experienced
hand.

Wednesday evening representa-
tive number of the business men of
Kendrick met in the city hall and
effected an organization to be
known as the Kendrick Chamber of
Commerce. This move of the busi-
ness men of this city is one that has
long been necessity for the well
fare Of the. town. The parties
present held a meeting and started
the log rolling.
Plans were made for a meeting
to be held next Tuesday evening at
the city hall where a permanent
organization will be made, officers
elected and bylaws adopted. Now
this body of men will be composed
of those who are willing to get in
and work for the betterment of the
town of Kendrick and the surround
ing country. No drones or knock
ers need apply for membership, for
if you are not willing for Kendrick
and the Potlatch country to pro-
gress in the manner it should you
had just as well not apply for mem
bership.
You stop and think! Kendrick
is located in the midst of one of the
most productive farming districts
on the face of the globe, barring
none, and the town is so located in
the center and with all the produc-
tiveness of the soil it gives us plenty
of raw material to work upon and
put into existence industries that
will flourish and make Kendrick one
of the most progressive little cities
in the state of Idaho. Now come
on boys and get together and those
that were not present at this first
meeting come out Tuesday evening
and place your name on the roll
with those already there and say
that you are back of the movement
to make better Kendrick.
One of the first things the new
Chamber of Commerce will do is to
hold a Market day sale next Satur-
day, May 20 in the center of the
town. A licensed auctioneer will
handle the sale and anything you
have for sale will be sold to the
highest bidder if you will just
bring it in and give your name and
list of articles to the clerk, B. C..
johnson.
Another thing in this sale matter,
if you want to sell and are willing
to let it go to the highest bidder
bring it on, we will see that no buy
bidding goes on, everything must
sell. The Chamber of Commerce
stands back of the sale to meet the
expenses and all they ask of the
public is to place your goods on the
market if you wish to dispose of it.
Don't forget the date, May 29th
at l o'clock. On this date the
stores will offer bargains from their
counters. Bring the ladies and
children and make this an outing
day for the whole family. Each
and everyone is invited.
