TRANSPORTATION is NOT THE
STUMBLING BLOCK,

The erroneous opinion which continues
to prevail that the mining industry
of Idaho county will not revive until
better transportation facilities are
brought about, has more of a tendancy
to influence capital against the min
ing business In this section. than any
a large extent ten or twelve years
other cause. While this was true to
ago, and during the Buffalo Hump ex-
citement, time has wrought many
changes and improvements in the meth
DDS of treating and extracting the
values from ores and 1t is no longer
a question of railroad transportation
into the several mining districts OF
this county, but simply question OF
being able to enlist capital to develop
and equip with modern machinery and
systems for treating the ores, and
which can, under present methods be
done on the ground, thereby eltminat-
ing the necessity of railroad transpor-
tation to ship the ores to a smelter.
During the last several years, and since
active mining in this county was prac-
tically suspended, the owners OF prop
critics having faith in the merits and
value OF their properties, and that min
ting in this section would eventually
come into its own, have as a rule held
onto, and continued, though in a limit
ed way, to develop their properties,
and in most instances the showing has
improved to such an extent that today
there are many properties IN the gold
districts that have opened up on them
and have actually in sight thousands
of tons of good ore. awaiting sufficient
capital to properly equip them for more
practical and profitable operations 1t
is generally admitted, not only by the
prospector and property owner, but by
some of the best experts in the coun-
try, that the showing for successful
and profitable mining can not be ex
celIed in any country.
II those who are still laboring under
the transportation delusion would stoI
and consider for a moment that many
important changes and improvements
have been made in the mining industry
of this county, as well as in new and
improved processes for the treatment
of ores, during the last ten years, they
would probably wake up to the fac
that one of the greatest resources O
this country is being neglected, ant
too the fact that general interes
in mining is again being aroused al
over the country. This would caus
them to at least set up and take no
tice that their golden opportunity \
| at hand.
OF course better transportation woui'
be welcomed and would cheaper TIN
cost of operations. but with develop
ment and general activity transporta
ton naturally follows, but when on
waits for the other, there usually
not much doing as has been the cas-
here for several years

list of acts usually seen and heard in

ed the pretty Pavlowana dance in min

elaborate creations and the manner in
which these young folks staged thel,
little act should be a source of pride
to themselves and their many admirers
for years to come. The Pavlowa was
followed by a pleasing rendition of
''The Rose Chorus" by fifteen OF the
cbty's best known and talented lady
vocalists.
One of the best features OF the
evening was the short dramatic sketch.
''The Littlest Girl" put on by Harold
Harris, C. A. Parsons, II. E. Bush and
Claire Louise Baker, all of whom hold
well established positions at the head
of the local dramatic talent. The scene
was touching and carried with 1t a
double lesson. Harold Harris, in the
role of rather sporty young man,
but with the underlying principles OF
true manhood and a sense OF fairness
and the honesty and courage to exc
cute. takes THE Littlest Girl" a tiny
little mite OF a thing, from the theat-
rical stage where she has been forced
by those who have her in charge. and
conveys her to the home of her wealthy
father, who has rejected her and her
mother, but who still loves them dear
ly, and by his persistence and insist
ence, as well his telling arguments and
unseftsh example, reunites the father
| and child. Mr.. Parsons had the part of
the father, and Mr.. Bush that of the
valet. The acting was superecellent,
and was roundly applauded.

number of beautiful young ladies APP

Mr.. Bell has been successfully oc-

years, for which he lis most eminently
fitted.
He is a keen observer and has been
a strong factor towards stimulating
our vast mining industry in particular
although he is just as desirous to have
ala our great resources developed and
brought to the front.
Our own Idaho county, the largest
In the Union, is possessed Of:
The greatest undeveloped gold min
ing section in the northwest.
The most fertile lands.
Thousands Of acres of virgin forests.
Inestimable water power.
Plenty of sunshine, rainfall-no irri-
cation.
A heaven for live stock.

With such a market our farmers oi

cents a bushel on wheat which they
now pay for handling and transporta-

The possibility OF our vast minera
fields in the nearby mountains coming

our farmers.

6iRBY RESIDENCE DAMAGED
BY FIRE.

Sunday night just before Midnight
a fire alarm was turned in and in
few minutes both fire bells were clang-
ing out their wierd notes OF alarm un-
der the able and vigorous efforts of Jim
Woods and Nightwatch Smith, and the
startled denizens saw the flames roll
ing up from the we'll known DIR. Bibby
residence just north of Main street.
The fire laddies under the efficient lead
ership of Captain Dave Sasenbery,
soon had the hose cart on the scene
and a strong stream of water playing
on the flames. The whole inside OF
the building seemed to be on fire, While
the flames were rolling up from the
back part of the structure. However.
the prompt action of the firefightens
soon had the flames subdued, and while
the interior has suffered considerable
damage, it is well covered with in
surance and can be restored to its
original condition without material loss
to the owner. The property carried
81, 900 insurance, and is said to have
been in process Of transfer from Mrs.
Bibby to e. w. oliver at the time OF
the fire. Mrs. Bibby. now Mrs. Ben

AS Indicated by the election notice
published elsewhere in this issue there
will be a city election held in this
town one week from next Tuesday
and the election officers and voting
places are there set forth in detail
There does not seem to be any great
amount of excitement over the forth
coming event. There should be enough
interest in the matter to see that good
officials are selected. but so far as
the Globe is concerned 1t prefers to
see all hotly contested elections elm
mated. 1t often takes too long to heal
the after effects.

Petitions have been circulated in the
three wards of the city under the
title of "Citizens Ticket" nominating
the following officers:

SCHOOL BOARD ELEcrs rEAcHERs

SCHOOL BOARD ELECTS TEACHERS.
The school board held two meetings
this week, supplementing the work Of
one with the other.
Prof. D. F. r. Rice was reelected
superintendent at the same salary
formerly received. Miss Brooks was
elected principal to succeed herself
F. c. Robinson was reelected as instruc-
tor in agriculture and athletics, at
an increased salary. Miss Keith was
reelected as teacher of domestic science
at e.a increased salary. The other
teachers We're all proffered their old
positions and were given ten days In
which to file their acceptance The
position of librarian was cut out, as
matter OF economy, and the teachers
will Jointly look after the library.
The estimated minimum cost OF run
ming the school for next term Is $1SOoO.
Under the law cutting the levy down
last year to ten mills this will cut
the funds short something like $1,000
under the maximum conditions ana
this shortage will possibly be increas-
ed Under the assessed valuation last
year of 1000 900 the ten mills levy
will raise s11 900. the state fund VIII
be about $6 900, making total OF $i"-
600. There may be a way of relieving
the situation through the law proVld-
ing a 2h mills levy for gymnaslulhs
/ but there is some doubt whether II
will apply in this case
