State Horticultural Association
Passes Strong Resolutions
SQUELCHES ATTEMPT TO INJECT

as tending to inject politics into the
meeting, a resolution offered by G. J.
Sincel asking E. F. Stephens and c. F.
Hartley TO explain whether or not
they had any understanding with Gov
ernor Alexander leading to their ap-
potntment. the state horticultural
meeting in session here last week,
later passed resolutions asking that
the legislature take steps to remove
all appointive officers from politics
and after carrying out the advertised
program, except in so far as prevented
by the unavoidable absence of a few
who were billed to speak, elected Of
ficers and adjourned.
The Sinsel resolution was seconded
by Walter e. Wood, but was lost. after
several speakers, led by Senator o. G.
zuck, had vigorously protested. These
gentlemen interpreted the resolution
as a slam at Governor Alexander.
whose record with reference to fruit
growers and fruit inspection Senator
Zuck defended. The question of the
adequancy of the present appropria-
ton for fruit inspectors was also dis
cussed with some spirit, the majority
of those participating taking the posi-
act as an inspector for his own and
his neighbors orchard, the appropria-
tion was large enough. The resolution
finally adopted read as follows:
Whereas, in the enactment of the
horticultural law, it was the intent OF
the authors that members of the state
board of horticultural inspection
should be appointed in accordance
with the recommendations of the State
Horticultural association; and
Whereas, for the first time since
the original enactment of the law In
1897, such recommendations, embodied
in resolution at the last meeting OF
the association. we're ignored by the
governor of the state; and
Whereas, in the proceedings insti-
tuted to test the legality of the actios
of the governor it was held by the su-
preme court of the state that the pres
ent law did not make it mandatory
upon the governor to follow such rec
concentrations of the association; now

NO INQUEST NEEDED
IN THE BAUEHR CASE
Laborer Who Died Suddenly Evidently
Succumbed to Natural Causes. Moth
of Past KnOwR.

Having ascertained that the cause of
death of John Bauehr, found dead at
the small house on Second avenue
south on the night of February l, was
due to heart failure, a coroner's in
quest was deemed unnecessary. Otto
Hosur, who roomed with Bauehr, left
the man in good health In the evening
only to find him dead on his return
about 10:30 o'clock Owing to the
publicity given the affair a woman in
Salt Lake City wrote this week to the
local police saying that she thought
perhaps it was her missing husband,
but a description accompanying the
letter showed that she was mistaken.
Bauehr was about As years old and
was employed by the Twin Falls Feed
& Ice company last summer. Nothing
was known of his past career.

COUNCIL TALKS
ON MANY THINGS
Important Matters Brought to
Attention of Fathers
AUTO SHOW GETS PRIVILEGE OF
RUNNING BANNERS.
Requests Made For Extension OF Short
Line Switch For Purpose OF Build
ing Warehouse.

A. long session of the city council
adjourned Monday night after listen
ing to many requests, most OF which
were taken under advisement, grant
ing petition of Boyd Fuller to per-
NIT the auto men to advertise by
streamers on cars and to hold their
show without paying license
The request from Boyd Fuller, who
is managing the coming auto show,
was the first thing taken up. Mr..
Fuller in backing his request modest
ly said that an editorial in The Times
of January 25, stated the reasons for
making the concession more forcibly
than he could do. The reasons seem
ed good to the council, who decided
that the show was "of public interest
and for the public benefit" and acted
accordingly.
Two important petitions, one pre-
sented by T. j. Woods and the other
by number of residents of the af-
fected district, had to do with the ex-
tension of the Short Line switch run
ming behind the fruit growers ware
house. The Woods petition asked only
for the extension of one of the tracks
across Second street, while the other
asked for the extension of the other
track across Shoshone street past
blocks 143 and 144. The council
agreed that if either should extend
across Shoshone street, both should,
in order that it not be torn up more
frequently than necessary. All par
ties said that their purpose was to Sc
cure trackage for new warehouses
which would otherwise not be built at
present. Mr. Woods said that he had
60 onrtair or who Wnnl nj
only purchase in the event that he
could get switching facilities for a
warehouse to be constructed at once
II the concession were granted. The
council took the matter under advise
ment for a week.
W. ]. Luck said that he was out OF
luck in regard to the establishment OF
gas tank for his auto in the street
without a permit which he did moi
know was required The council
granted his request.
Several plumbers were present
in regard to a proposed plumbing or
dinance, which was laid before the
council in their behalf by Attorney r
V. Larson, who also read an amend
ment to the present ordinance govern
ing the putting in of fixtures. Th'
matter was referred to the city attor
ney and the plumbing inspector.
H. l.. Dinkelacker brought up thu
matter of an amendment to the elec
tric ordinance which was referred t
the proper committee and the cleo .ri'
inspector
The city clerk said that he had re
ceiyed word from J. n. Wright, rerre
sentative of bonding house that Sal

row AfternoOn-All Are Urged to
Visit Ii at Depot

Arrangements have been made to
bring the government wool car to this
city tomorrow and it will be on the
Short Line track at the depot for six
hours beginning at 1890 o'clock. In
circular addressed to patrons of the
schools, r. II. Musser, agricultural in
structor, explains the purposes of the
car as follows:
II Is with pleasure that l am writ
ing you in regard to the Wool Demon
stration Car" which is to be in Twin
Falls Wednesday afternoon, Febru-
airy 8.
There is hardly any necessity of my
telling you that sheep raising and WOO
production are two of the leading in
dustries of our western country.
Demonstrations in the past year
have shown us that the farmer can
profitably produce wool on the ranch
along with other agricultural products
as we'll as the large producer. This
being a fact, we are all more or less
interested in the production of the bet
ter qualities of wool.
The government has taken enough
interest to send a Wool Demonstra
ton Car" to the west. This car has ;
man IN charge VINO is Specialist IL
wool production. He will show us al
grades of wool, their uses, and thu
steps in the manufacture of wooleI
goods from the raw material to thu
finished product. Live sheep will b.
used as specimens showing thes'
grades of wool in the raw state. Thes'
live specimens will be secured here il
our community.
BY special arrangement and upoI
short notice, we have been able to ge
this car to stop in Twin Falls, Wed
nesday afternoon, February 9, iron
l12:30 p. m until 6:S0 p. M, only.
This will be a rare treat and W
urge that you make a special effort t
see the car. 1t will be on the track
of the o. S. L. near the depot This
