CAMPAIGN FOR new
MEMBERS IS PLANNED

Nampa, April 1s.-Thoroughly en-
Unused over its own recent accomplish
ments and the probability evidenced of
securing notable enterprises for the
city upon which it is now concentrat-
ing it's efforts, the Chamber of Com
merce of this city will, at an early
date. initiate a movement for an in
creased membership campaign. The
strong support being given it by the
business men and all citizens OF the
city in its work of the past few months
and of tl-at now in progress has i'm
pressed its officials that by still
greater concerted efforts a greater
work can be done for the city, hence
the movement.
Business men In this city emphasize
the fact that the major part OF the
state lands In Canyon county to be
sold at Caldwell April 20 is tributary
to Nampa and that its sale and settle
ment by purchasers will mean much to
the city in various ways, to say moth
ing of charging the trade territory Of
its merchants.

DRAINAGE PLANS
BEING DISCUSSED
Much Diversity Of Opinion
in Regard to Creation
Of District.

Star. April 13.-That there il q d.
versity of sentiment in reference TO
the proposed drainage district for this
section Is not to be doubted and the
final outcome Of the proposition II
highly problematical. The meetings
which are being held In the proposed
district, however, may prove a potent
factor either way in the determination
Of the problem.
The meetings in progress under the
supervision Of the people Of the Apos-
tolic faith are being very largely at
tended and considerable interest ID
evidenced.

PRESIDENT Of SCHOOL
BOARD HAS RESIGNED

Meridian, April 13.-As a conse-
quence of difference OF opinion ex-
listing between himself and associate
members Of the school board, J. s.
Dewhirst, president of the local school
board, rendered the board his resig-
nation yesterday afternoon. The board
will meet thiS afternoon to take action
upon the matter, and 1t is probable
that at this meeting a successor to
Mr.. Dewhirst will be recommended to
the county superintendent, who will
make the appointment.
1t Is not probable that the rural high
school will be abandoned or changed in
any measure. In fact, 1t develops that
there is AN almost unanimous senti-
ment again such an action. The one
purpose of the citizens appears to be
to operate at less expense in the flu
tnre, and this seems easy in view OF
the fact that the great expense of the
past has been due to payments on a
deficit.

Good SUCCESS IS :
met. IN RAISING OF
FUNDS FOR COLLEGE

Nampa, April 13.-That tho Com
mercial club of this city will succeed
through the campaign it has launched
for securing the bonus of $4,000 in To-
eating the proposed Holiness college in
this city now seems probable. While
no report has been made by the COM
mittee appointed to formulate plans
for securing the necessary money. its
members are among the shrewdest Of
the city's business men, and the fullest
measure Of confidence is entertained
in the successful contamination of
this effort because of their connec-
ton with it. That the college would
mean much to Nampa in the way of
proving a revenue producer to the city
through money expended by it's stud
ents and its proposed industrial de-
partments is being given special stress.

OMAHA GRAIN MEN
$ HOLDOWN ON SLUMP
Stories of Heavy Losses Not Con-
firmed When the Books Are
Balanced for Day,
CASH GRAIN TAKES A SLUMP

The decline Of to cents per
bushel in the May and July wheat
option made itself felt in the cash
market of the Omaha Grain ex-
change and prices were to Z cents
eff for the first time in several
weeks, wheat dropping to 81 per
tushel. Most of the sales. however,
were made at higher prices, the top
OF the day being S1.0S. The receipts
were 119 carloads.
Stories of heavy losses by Omaha
grainmen Thursday were entirely with
out foundation. on the other hand, most
of the dealers added neat sums TO their
SURPRISES. When the decline started
Thursday morning there were plenty OF
exchange members who were long on
wheat bought at much higher prices,
but instead of seeing their profits dwin-
die away as cash grain kept going
lower and lower. they started to sell
the MAY option, and generally when the
books were balanced at the close of
the session, they were money ahead.
This was due to the fact that while
cash wheat declined 1 TO 2 cents, the
May option was off to cents. Their
profit was tho difference between the
cash price and the option.
Friday the May option continued to go
lower, getting down to $116s. and while
there were several dealers who were
long on actual wheat. by continued SELL
ing Of the option. they figured that on
the whole they were far ahead of the
game.
Corn was steady. selling a cent up
to a cent down and around IS and 67%
cents per bushel. Receipts were nine
ty-eight carloads.
Oats were off IL cents, selling at SA
and Al cents. with light demand. The
receipts were eight carloads.

Death Of Stephen S.
Doyle,

Friends of Steve A. Doyle were
shocked last Saturday to learn OF
his death, which occurred at 1916
p. m.
Mr.. Doyle had been sufferer
from Bright's Disease for about
year past and although this was
known to his most intimate friends
his death at this time was wholly
unexpected. Friday evening he
was apparently enjoying gooc
health and intimated that he might
attend the dance at Mahnomer
but changed his mind. He re-
tired early apparently in tue best
of spirits. Saturday morning,
however, on his failure to open
the meat market of which he was
one of the owners, investigation
disclosed the fact that he was a
very sick man, in fact he was al
ready unconscious Both agency
physicians were summoned and
responded Immediately but it was
to late to rended any aid to the
dying man, he fingered until $3.50
IN the afternoon when he passed
away without having regalned
consciousness.
Deceased was 46 years of age
and had been a resident here for a
number Of years, being one Of the
members of the firm of LaChap-
pella & Doyle conducting meat
market here. During his resi-
dence here Mr.. Doyle made a host
of friends who will be panied to
hear of his untimely end.
Among those who are left to
mourn his loss are a daughter,
Mrs. Brinstad, who resides in
Minneapolis; a brother, Frank
Doyle of Hope, N. D. and another
brother who resides in Washing
ton. Relatives arrived Sunday
evening and took charge of the
remains which were taken to De-
troit for burial.
