MUCH MOVED DWELLING
ORIGINALLY AT KETCHUM.

J. A. McCollum, the well known
Wood river branch conductor, has pur-
chased the Governor Gooding proper
ty at the corner Of Shoshone and Lo-
gan streets. There are five lots and
a two-story dwelling, the location be-
ing considered most desirable as to
neighborhood. The new owner ex-
poets to improve the house and grounds
without delay and make the family
home there.
The history of this dwelling house
is interesting. for the house has
done more travelling than most houses.
At first it was erected at Ketchum from
the native timber cut in the mountains
there The owner afterward took it
apart and moved it to the town of
Gooding. 1t abided there only a little
time. however. and then was located
where it is now in Shoshone to settle
down in life in the even tenor of it's
way and with its or s rooms. All
told its travels as Il house was in the
of 90 miles and it is
good house still. Its days of wander
ing are now over.

REMINDED OF A COURT
HOUSE AT JEROME.
North Side News.)

j. F. Melvin, editor Of the Shoshone
Journal, was in jerome yesterday
morning between stops Of the Shoshone-
Jerome auto stage and had many COM
pliments for the appearance Of the
town. One thing that Mr.. Melvin al
ways sees when he visits Jerome is
the splendid location Of the townsite
which he declares one of the best and
most susceptible of being made beauti-
full that he has ever seen. Another
thing: In company with the editor of
The News as guide, Mr.. Melvin visited
the offices of the company in the base
ment of North Side Inn and was shown
the immense vaults, filing cases, re-
cords and maps of the different de-
partments. He said it reminded him
of a real court house and aroused his
suspicion. He saw at once how easy
it would be to transform all of this
into county offices, should Jerome at
some future date be made a county
seat. He even remarked that the force
Of clerks and accountants were i'm
mediately available for such an insti-
tuition.

vEXED QUESTION
OF COUNTY SEAT
COOLING WINS BY WENDELL
FAILING TO FILE eOND-EACH
SIDE TO PAY ITS COST.

Gooding is now secure in having it's
county seat, the contest of the town of
Wendell for that honor having been
withdrawn. by an order of the dis
trict court Wendell was required to
furnish an indemnity bond of four
thousand dollars and the time limit
expired on the 10Th inst. Judge Bah
cock construed the law to mean that
plaintiff had all of that day in which
to produce the bond and SO the final
disposition of the suit went over to
Tuesday. when Attorney Wilcox for
Wendell and Attorney Bissel for Good
ing filed stipuiations requiring Il di-
vision of costs between the towns. 1t
is said that the decision will give
Gooding an immediate and healthy
growth with this veXed question Of
county seat finally settled.

WATER SUPPLY
FOR CEMETERY
IMPROVEMENT TO BE COMMEND
ED BY EVERYBODY-SER
FOR MOUNTAIN VIEW ADDITION.

The townspeople generally and all
who have relatives and friends resting
in their last sleep at the shoshone
cemetery will heartily approve the ac-
ton taken by the town board in ord
ering the extension Of the watermains
thither Heretofore there has been
little if any water available for the
care of flowers planted there by low
ing hands. nor could the cemetery be
kept in the order as it should be kept for
the lack of water. A two-inch wood
service pipe is to be laid at once to
supply the Mountain View addition as
far out as the Dill and Gooding
ranches, supplying besides section
of the town destined to take on immed-
late and permanent growth.
The extension to the cemetery will
be laid along county roads and win
be comparatively Inexpensive for the
reason that the depth necessary for
summer service will be slightly below
the surface only. Superintendent !.
L. Miller Of the municipal waterworks
thinks the outlay for this Improvement
is one of the best ever made by the
town as an Investment, for the ser
vice already in sight he expects 10
foot up approximately $3.50 "a year in
dependent Of the service to the ceme-
terry, to say nothing about the neigh
borhood improvement to follow the
water service in q residence quarter Of
the town. Extension Of lights will be
sure to be demanded ana be put in at
once.
superintendent Miller is already at
work on the trenches for the pipe lines
md the service is expected TO be put .

NEWSPAPER MAN SAVES
TAXPAYERS PRETTY PENNY

The county commissioners of Blaine

Usher of the Times Of HALEY, inter
posed as taxpayer to prevent the

the case last Saturday in Shoshone and

the effect that the employment of eN-

P. .. WILL NOT
CHANGE LOCATION
LEASE TO BE MADE WITH GOOD
INGS FOR ENLARGED QUARTERS
WHERE THEY ARE NOW.

The Shoshone postoffice will remain
where it is for the next ten years
This was decided by the postoffice de-
partment last week when it was agreed
that lease should be executed with
Gooding Bros. owners Of the building,
and who are to reft the office with the
modern equipment required at a stip-
ulated rental, payable quarterly There
viii be approximately twice the room,
however, afforded under the new lease,
il being intended to take in the Gwin-
Rhine real estate office and fit up the
enlarged floor space with the new
equipment, together with suitable
vault
Proposals for suitable quarters for
the office were invited by advertise
ment last January, when there were
several bids submitted. Before that
time there had been some effort toward
the removal of the Office to the north
side of the railroad tracks. It was be-
cause of this effort that stipulations
were made in the advertisement ne
cessitating entirely new fixtures and
bids were made with this end in view.
Postmaster Miles is thus left with a
thousand dollars worth of postoffice
letter boxes and other junk on his
hands.
The actual change in postmasters
took place on the first instant, Everett
Noble, who was appointed several
weeks ago, having qualified with the
filing Of his official bond in March
but deferring the actual beginning Of
his term until the beginning Of Il call
endar month. He will retain Mrs. Fall
ligan as assistant.
1t should be said that the retiring
postmaster. who gives way under the
exigencies and usages OF partisan poll
itics, has filled the bill exactly as to
AShat postmaster should be-always
courteous and obIiging in his inter
course with the people who have bus
mess with him and fulfilling every re-
luirement of the Jeffersonian test of
honesty, capability and efficiency in .
the discharge of his duties. In his /
work Of lifetime that has had to do .
