QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATE
MENT DISTINCTIVE
Bonded Indebtedness Only EDcuu-
brance Against City Of Twin Falls
Cared For in Sinking Fund.

The city of Twin Falls this year, &C
cording to the quarterly financial
statement should emerge this year
with small surplus as the result Of
Its careful management during the
past few years. Four years ago Twin
Falls carried about twenty thousand
dollar floating Indebtedness or out
standing warrants to exceed its reve-
nues and resources. Last year 1t had
been cut down to about twenty-eight
hundred dollars.
At the beginning of the fiscal year,
another saving was made the taxpay-
ers by cut of seven mills in the levy
for 1914. Now, according to City Clerk
Taylor. If all the tax money be consid-
cred in the resources, that approx
mately $4,000 will be left May first to
turn over to the next administration.
The bonded Indebtedness Is not Gov
cred In the estimate, but is cared for
IN the sinking fund and interest pay
ments which are part of the city
expenses.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH CROWDED
Revival Meetings Making Impression
In City.

6 The Christian church was crowded
full Wednesday night to hear Assistant
Evangelist Chase upon the subject,
Whom Shall We Hear?"
Christ Is the only one whom men
must hear, was the burden of his mes
sage. The theory, Whatever a person
believes to be right, is right" is a
false one. Men can mot be trusted to
act on that proposition in business
dealings or in civic life. Laws are
necessary. Conscience is not q suffi-
cient authority.
Many people point to the church as
the source of authority. Such elevation
OF church leaders to so high a place
obscures the Christ. The working of
this theory has always led to lowered
standards and has spelled ruin to the
people who have practiced it.
God only has authority and He has
delegated 1t to Jesus Christ "All au-
thority has been given unto me In
Heaven and on Earth" said Jesus.
Many leaders have risen in recent
years claiming the right to say the last
word religiously. but when," said the
speaker, was Jesus authority taken
away and given to them"
Mr.. Chase said that Evangelist Vaw-
ter would be in Twin Falls for the SER
vice Friday or Saturday night. He as
sured the audience that no one desir-
ing to accept Christ would be asked to
wear any other church name aside
from those known in the days OF the
apostles. No one would be asked to do
more in becoming Christian than
Christ through the inspired apostles
has direGte4 Mr.. yawter, will give
charter and verse in the New Testa-
ment as authority for all that he says.

EXPECTING
PROSPERITY
Automobile Dealers Preparing
For Harvest.
LARGE FORTUNE INVESTED IN
CARS BY LOCAL AGENTS
Prospects For Best Year in the
History Of the Business in Southern
Idaho,

Optimism seems to prevail among
the automobile dealers of Twin Falls
from the activi1k shown in the auto
mobiles now ready for delivery to
prospective buyers. Indications for a
good year are not wanting among the
buyers, who are already circulating
about the various agency headquarters
[evincing a great amount of interest
In all OF the working parts. That the
buyers are for the most part hunting
g dealers is evidence Of better trade
conditions.
At present every agent in the city
has cars to sell without delay. Dur
Ing the slack winter months several
carloads were received and with the
shipment, recently delivered, tie up a
very tidy little fortune. A very low
estimate of the cars standing ON the
floors of the various agencies would
be $4,000. This figure does include
any of the cars stored, the proper
ty of individuals. To add to the above
large amount Of capital now tied up
should be included one or two ship
lnents now on the road. During
this season at least, a hundred and
twenty-five more cars are included in
the contracts made with the manufac-
turers.
1t is certain that war scares and fin
aneial. depression are, unknown = in
automobile vocabulary when the total
value Of cars which will be sold (for
they will be sold) will total approx
mately $250000. Last year Twin Falls
city consumers paid over forty thou
sand dollars to John d. for gasoline
This year should double that figure

THE FIRST WOLF
Big Wolf Captured in Southeastern
Idaho.

Delroy Empey brought in grey
wolf hide to F. G.. Bowman Thursday
and received check for $25, the
amount of bounty the Grazing associ-
alton pays on wolf This is the
first wolf hide to be brought to Mr..
Bowman, though the coyote hides have
been coming in pretty fast since the
bounty was offered
The wolf in question was taken
on the foothills only a short distance
from Ammon. He was one of a pack
of nine which has done considerable
damage to the dry farming section to
the east Poison had been set in two
place, one with the carcass Of sheep
and the other with freshly killed
horse. The wolves had devoured the
sheep with apparently little damage
to themselves. The dose prepared
for them In the carcass Of the horse
proved more efficacious, however, and
as result one of the pack succumbed
and others were pretty sick The
trail through the snow of the animals
was followed for twenty miles and sew
eral places showed where some of
them had wallowed in the snow and
indicated that they we're sick, but no
more dead ones were found.-Idaho

ARE WATCHING NEWSPAPERS
All Reference to Lotteries Must be
Avoided.

The federal government is keeping
a watchful eye upon the newspapers Of
the country with regard t01bublishing
news items and advertising of lotter-
les. Most of the newspapers are well
aware OF such law and carefully
guard against any infringements, but
once in while some unsuspecting
newspaper publisher is hailed before
the Federal grand Jury for failing to
know his postal rules Such is the
case of two of Idaho's newspapers in
the recent federal grand jury session
in Boise. when indictments were re-
turned against them for running a news
item Of prize drawing. The newspa-
per men are foolish to take chances
with the postal authorities for the sake
of some insistent advertiser or per-
son desiring n0toriety. 1t Is a no.
ticeable fact that when the editor
gets into trouble those who would use
him for their own ends never come
to the rescue with funds for the de-
