PLEASED WITH Twin FALLS
d. b. Hutton and Family Here From
Iowa to Make Home.

Last week D. B. Hutton and family
arrived in Twin Falls from Granger,
Iowa, and will make Twin Falls their
home in the future. Mr. Hutton has
not yet decided what line of business
he will follow, but will take his time
looking over the city and surrounding
country, before deciding. Mr.. Hutton
has not been here for nine years, and
when he got off the train he could
scarcely believe his eyes. Then Twin
Falls was nothing but small vii
lage, with dust ankle deep. Since he
has been here he has been all over
the city, and when he saw the paved
streets, three fine schools and SPLEEN
did court house, along with the substan-
tial business blocks he informed The
Times that he was simply amazed. He
is here to stay in what he says is the
best town and country in the North
west

VIII befit his future rank. Lord Col
linton has recently lost his only son,
and with his memories and his broken
heart, unable to bear the sight Of
children, places Charles in the care of
a distant and heartless aunt, Mrs. Mac
Niche. Charles loves the fairies with
all the ardor of his poetic soul, and in
spite of his rags and misery the ether
cal creatures bring him solace; while
Mrs MacMiche, with her sordid soul
and iron heart, to whom the fairies are
fiends, lives in pathetic terror of their
power. Charles meets and loves Juliet
into whose eyes God forgot to put the
light, and the fairies, who only come
when the heart is so fAll that it can
not speak, manifest themselves to the
happy young lovers in a myriad ways

Charles becomes heir to his title and
fortune. and takes a pitiful and tender
farewell of Juliet, promising to return
when he is old enough to make her his
Lady Lolinton.
With the lapse of years and the pos
session of power, Charles forgets the
fairies and Juliet, and becomes "a
snob! Julied's heart calls to him
through the darkness but her prayer is
in vain. Meantime, Love and Sympa-

A NOTABLE SERMON
Evangelist Vawter Puts New Aspect to
his Satanic Majesty.

In sermon on THE Devil" Sunday
night Evangelist Vawter declared that
His Satanic Majesty was much mis-
represented parsonage. However, he
is pleased with slander. Though pic
tured with cloyen hoofs, horns. and a
hideous countenance he more often de-
ludes people by coming "as an angel
of light"
God and the devil stand on oppo-
site sides of men, each saying, Come
my way" God offers life of labor,
usefulness, possibly hardships but
with a future reward for a godly life
Satan offers pleasure, the gilded and
glittering life, quick rewards and sur
face friendships-and in the end,
death"
Satan is wise from long experience
As long ae people think that sin
comes as sin he can fool them. Most
habits that blight the body and soul
at first appear attractive. Saloons are
often magnificent and no one in in
viting a young man to take his first
drink points TO the man in the gutter.
Many boys gamble because they learn
ed the tricks of the game at home and
the mother or other respected peo-
pie played for prizes"
1t is planned that the meetings shall
continue over next Sunday. Stereop-
ticon views of Mr. Vawter's travels
will be shown after some of the SER
vices Before leaving the city Evange-
list Vawter will deliver an illustrated
lecture of his trip around the world
Thus far in all the services there
have been 212 who have taken a stand
for the Christian life including re-
newals, 1856 of these being for the local
Church Of Christ The Christian Bible
school last Sunday had an attendance
of asa. The continued interest in
the meetings for over three weeks
speaks strongly for the abiding mower

corning the candidacy OF Sam Plat for the United States senatorship,
in which the following statement is made:
"Platt himself owns the Carson News and though it is under lease
he will direct lis policy; his friends have bought the Gazette, 81 that
will be TO him; and the story comes from Eko that the Independent
will at the proper moment declare its preference for Sam
The Independent has always held the Appeal. in high esteem, and we
cannot account for its giving publication to this silly statement regard
ing the indie ptpdent. This paper has consistently supported the Demo
cratic party for forty-seven years, and any Anhmation that it contem:
plates f0 soaking that party now is political rot. Whoever it a that
started this story is a prevaricator OF such stupendous caibre that he
would make Ananias appear like al amateur.
That the Appeal may no remain in doubt we will state that the indie
pendent will be found giving its whoesouled support to the democratic
nominee for United States senator. The policies of President Wilson
have II complete sympathy and Endorsement, and we will support for
the legislative branch OF our national government only those who will
support him and hold up his hands'-Efko Independent.
Believing the Independent to be sincere in the above statement,
the Appeal takes its rebuke with the best grace possible, and assures
the Independent that such a error will not again occur. However, we
are pleased to have the Independent come out and make the straight

EXECUTION OF CHARLES BECKER

paper asserts that the execution of Charles Becker will OF eliminate the
belief in the minds Of many that he a the victim OF what is termed
in police parance a "hrame-up,' and that there is a suspicion that tile
demand for Beckers life was not made because OF the murder OF Her
ma Rosenthal. There may be persons in New York City who will
breathe mere freely now that he is out of the way"
Becker may have been guilty OF instigatng the murder of Herman
Rosenthal, but a doubt existed, despite the assertion of Governor Whit
man that there was II o chance for such a possibility and it is unfortunate
for New York that Governor Whitman was OF broad enough and could
lot rise TO the stature of Governor Slaton of Georgia when he committed
the sentence of Leo Frank.
Governor Whitman himself may have been perfectly sincere in his
result OF prejudice Or a limitation of mind that would not permit the
possibility OF mistake? AT this distance it looks that way.
Rid the case OF the testimony of Rose, Weber and WALTON, who
we're the chief witnesses against Becker, and what chance had the pros
ecuhon to convict the police lieutenant? And who we're the lei who
sent Becker to his death but gamblers Of the lowest order and in addi-
ton were stool pigeons for the police, ready to sell themselves and put
up any kind of a job for a few pieces of silver.
