BLACKFOOT HIGH SCHOOL
DEFEATS POCATELLO 200

At Brady Park, Pocatello, last Fri
day afternoon, the Blackfoot High
School football team defeated the Po-
catello high by score of 20 to O..
Blackfoot made three touchdowns for
two goals in the first half, two of the
touchdowns being made by quarter
back Thomas. There were few open
plays, the gains of the Blackfoot team
being made on line smashes.
In the second half, the Pocatello
boys, due largely to the fast work Of
Captain O'Malley, We're able to keep
their heavier opponents from making
any further scores.
In game between the second teams
of the Blackfoot and Pocatello High
Schools the Pocatello boys won by a
score of Is to Z, the feature of the
game being the fast work of Mum,
who made two touchdowns.

More Men Than Women
Have Appendicitis

Surgeons state men are slightly more
subject to appendicitis than women.
Blackfoot people should know that a
few doses of simple buckthorn bark,
glycerine, etc, as mixed in Ajler-i-ka,
often relieve or prevent appendicitis.
The mixture removes such surprising
foul matter that ONE SPOONFUL
relieves almost ANY CASE Of consti.
patton, sour stomach or gas. Tie IN
SLANT, easy action of Ad,er-i-ka is
surprising. Edw. Thoreson, druggist.

Mr.. Wells has several years of expe-
rience in county work of this charac,
ter, and is well qualified to handle
the work of this office. You will make
no mistake in voting for him, and es-
pecially is it true that there is no
reason why any Republican in Bing-
ham County should vote for Demo
crat for the office Of County Treasurer
at the coming election on November
18th. Mr.. Wells will undoubtedly be
elected by the usual large Republican
majority.

SAVING TO BINGHAM
TAXPAYERS

The Republicans have been denying
that the present administration has
saved the people of the State anything
in the way of taxes. Well, here is the
record for Bingham county, and the
other counties have Jared as well.
Bingham S share of state tax under
the Haines administration of two years
was $56,SS9.26, while under the present
administration of two years it 10 $685.
724.93, a clear saving to the taxpayers
of this county of SlS,164.l3. Dom
the Republicans call that pretty big
saving for the present administration
And remember, too, that this saving
was forced by the stand taken by Gov
ernor Alexander, as member of the
State Board of Equalization.
The following are the levies made on
this county during the last four years:
For 1913, $2S, 55l for 1914, $2S, 1885;
for 1915, $21 ,907.SS; for 1916, $16,817.
.05. The first two years were under
! Governor liaines, and the last two I'M
der Governor Alexander. The saving
under Alexander for two years amounts
to a sum equal to the whole tax we pay
in this county this year.
During the last two years a warrant
Indebtedness against the state of $780,
goo has also been paid and the bond
ed debt reduced by $363,500. So in
| stead of increasing the state debt as
has always been the custom under for
mer administrations Governor Alcxan-
der, by his vetoes, has kept new debts
from being saddled on the people and
at the same time reduced the debt al
ready made by former administrations,
by 1868, 900.
And don t forget that this saving is
due to the stand Governor Alexander
has taken in his determination to re-
duce the tax burdens of the people of
Idaho.
| Moral: Vote for his reelection, to-
gether with the balance of the state
ticket, so that this sort of saving may
continue
The Mexican question resolves itself
into this proposition. Do the voters of
Bingham county want to furnish part
of the soldier boys who will be sent
to that unfortunate country to crush
out the lives of lot of poor, misera-
BILE, ignorant Mexican peonsa That's
the thing that is put up to this people
squarely by the Republicans. They say
they will intervene, if Hughes is elect
ed, and we know by past experince
that Wilson will not make war on them
unless he is forced to. And no money
or property interests will compel him to
take that step. He thinks too much
of human life to squander it for the
protection of property interests, that
don t deserve any protection from this
country. These investments were made
by these corporations, through corrupt
deals with old Diaz, when president of
Mexico, and the investors should take
their chances with the Mexican govern
ment and not ask the United States to
step in, now that they find these inter
ests jeopardized by Mexican bandits.
