The case will come up during this
session If all the necessary material
may be gathered together In time to
present it.
Those who know something Of the
evidence to be given, say 1t Will prove
to be most sensational. Brent in
speaking Of it. said he hoped every
thing might be gotten In readiness In
time to hear the case this term a. he
is most anxious to tell all he knows

PRESENT COUNTY HOSPITAL
DISGRACE TO COMMUNITY
GIVE US THE NEW ONE!

Twin Falls County could see that
place it's a cinch the Commissioners |
could not provide a better one too
fast or too soon!
The Twin Falls County Poor House
land it's a sure-enough poor house,
is located on the alley facing Second
Street S., between Second and Third
Avenues S.-a region of warehouses,
garages and livery stables 1t was
originally built for a livery stable,
but later changed into a cheap hotel
to serve the purpose of pioneer days.
In front the view across the street
takes in the rear of machine shop
(where a trip hammer soothes the
nerves of the sick and nervous) to
the left, and of a garage to the right
the space being strewn with
wrecked vehicles and machinery, rub
bish and rags A back alley, with
all that implies, runs close on the
right, piles of fence posts impinge
on the rear, to the left and left-rear
are coal sheds and more rubbish;
and if a blade of grass ever grew
anywhere, it has long since been bur
led and forgottenl
Within is absolute squalor-and
that is no reflection upon the man
agement, since no care nor labor
could redeem such rooms and furn-
ishingsl There are a dozen small
sleeping rooms very meagerly and
poorly furnished, an alleged bath
room and toilet, hall, which appears
to be the common sitting room, a
dining room and kitchen. The large |
dining room-in fact all the older
part OF the house-is upholstered;
and as the dining room is, and has
been, without a stove, food froze on
the tables during the winter. The
grade of the street has been raised,
leaving the lot so low that in case
of rain or melting snow the cellar
filled and hip boots were required |
to reach the coal shed The roof |
leaks numerously, and every windy |
day scatters SCOT from the chimneys
everywhere. The rough and uneven
floors, the doorways, the rafting
windows-but why multiply words?
The whole thing is, intrinsically, just
about as bad as it can be, and is in
every way derogatory to Twin Falls
County and a libel upon her citizen
shipl
Five old men, either crippled or
feeble, were the sole occupants, and
they were not complaining-wh which
might give ground for the assumption
that one can get accustomed to any
thing. The apparent spokesman, one
Patterson, said he had been there two
years, had been well fed and well
cared for. And Mr.. Patterson, by the
way, offered a note of unusual human
interest Left in the snow by foul
means, through winter night in the
far north, eleven years ago, he has
since been minus both hands to the
wrists, one leg to the knee and the
other foot to the instep. He walks
fast and firmly upon crutches with
leather pockets into which he thrusts
his handless arms, feeds himself by
means of composite contrivances of
his own, and is hale, cheerful and
measureably contented.
But this is no fit place for a civil
lized people to keep Mr. Patterson,
or any other unfortunate Git does not
seem that women are sent there at
ALL; and we hail the prospect for
better things as something that could
not possibly have greater or more
imminent necessity to urge it's
immediate achievement.

As we have seen, the government won its suits
against the Standard Oil Trust and the Tobacco
Trust. Through no fault of the Sherman law or
of the Supreme Court but rather through the fault
OF the administration then in power these dissolu-
tions proved to be shams and deusions. In both
the oi, and the tobacco industries the inter-
ests which had previously dominated these indus
tries before the dssolutions continued afterwards
to dominate them One of the companies which
was formed out of the Tobacco Trust was allowed
by the administration to have capital of sII sooo
600, and some of the others had capital of be-
tween sso,ooo,ooo and SIooooo,ooo. Moreover, the
capital stock of all Of the companies both in the
Standard Oil and in the Tobacco Trust dissolu-
tions, placed in the hands of the same stock
holders and in the proportions as the
stock Of the respective trusts themselves In other
words, the coterie of men who had previous
ly owned majority of the stock of the Standard
Oil Trust continued to control a majority of the
stock Of the companies into which the trust was
separated Substantially the same thing was true
in the Tobacco Trust dissolution.
II is no wonder that throughout the country a
storm of Indignation aroused Each OF the
industries which had been controlled by these
each of them tens of thousands of people were en-
gagged in earning their livelihood In each OF them
thousands of persons had been prevented from pur-
suing their occupations. President Cleveland said
in 1896:
Through them (ncsnng the trusts) the farmer,
the artisan and the small trader is in danger of
dislodgement from the proud position of being his
own master watchful of all that touches his coun-
trys prosperity, in which he has individual lot,
Ill Nf
business OF which he is factor, to be relegated
to the level of mere appurtenance to great
machine with little free will, with no duty but
that Of passive obedience, and with little hope or
opportunity of rising in the scale of responsible
and helpful citizenship.
"To the instructive belief that such is the nevi-
table trend of trusts and monopolies IS due the
widespread and deep-seated popular aversion in
which they held and the not unreasonable in
sistencc that, whatever may be their incidental
economic advantages. their general effect cannot
be otherwise than injurious.
These the words of dcmagogue or self.
seeker. They constitute doctrines based upon pro-
found economic principles and upon the funda-
mental right of personal liberty

following incident. for which he gives
credit 10 Mr.. smith ELY. u former mayor
of New York and mcmber Of Consressi
when the last cali for troops was
made and a conscription ordered. the
proportion assigned to the city of New
York was some thousands In excess Of
what some people believed TO be our
legal liability, and our committee on
volunteering were certain they could
prove this IL they could have access to
the books of the War Department. The
committee-Orison Blunt. John Fox,
Smith Ely and William NJ. Tweed went
to Washington and asked Secretary
stanton's permission to examine the
records, which was brusquely refused
on the pretext that the books we're In
constant use. The committee then went
to the White House and saw Lincoln in
his private office. After asking them to
be seated. he resumed his 49, in which
he sat partly on his back, with his
heels literally on the manteIpIece His
linen bosom was unbuttoned, exposing
his red flannel shirt. He was told that
we had furnished, in excess OF previous
calls, more than enough to exempt us
from the present call. which we would
prove " we could have access to the
records for any two hours during the
night when they were not In use. He
was also assured that in no event would
conscription be needed in New York
az we were getting fifty volunteers
daily and a short postponement OF the
draft would enable US to supply all the
demands. just or unjust. He listened
with an expression OF profound sadness.
and said he thought the request a rea-
sonable one, but he feared IL the order
for draft was postponed volunteering
would cease. He said that o similar
committee from Cincinnati had applied
to him for a postponement of the draft
as they were getting twenty volunteers
