RECEPTION COMMITTEE
FOR CONVENTION BUSY
Hunt For Rooms Aided BY Presence
of Auto ShOw-Many Letters Are
Sent Out

While the auto show is in progress
members of the commercial CLUB S
committee on entertainment have been
busy getting things lined up for the
forthcoming Republican state conven-
ton. In a way the show has been
helpful as it gave line on a number
of patriotic citizens who are willing to
permit the use of rooms for the honor
and glory of Twin Falls. Letters have
been sent to the delegates in all the
counties, to the officers of the several
committees and to the other promln-
ent Republicans throughout the state
asking their cooperation in making
the affair a success. The following IS
a copy of the letter to the delegates,
which differs but slightly from the
letter sent to the other prominent
men throughout the state:
1.-The citizens of Twin Falls are
sincerely hoping that all the dele
gates chosen will attend the Republi-
can state convention to be held April
goth and that many others will take
advantage of the opportunity to visit
cur city at that time.
"It is likely that the convention will
continue until the 21st Arrangements
will be made by which all delegates
and others who may be in attendance
will be taken, free of charge, to the
many points of interest in this vicin-
ity and automobiles will be at the
disposal of all who may desire te
make trips on April 18th, goth anc
21st. 1t is strongly urged that al
come as early as the 18th so as tC
spend some time seeing the Twir
Falls country.
Reports indicate that there will b'
large attendance but places for al
will be found. If rooms are desired i
is requested that the matter be takef
up in advance with f. L. Ashton
chairman, Twin Falls, and that he b'
given information as to number o
rooms needed and for what DAYS.

ExpertS4sSay 1t Is Better Than
Chicago In Some Ways.
BIGGEST EVER HELD IN THE IN
TERMOUNTAIN STATES.
Formal Opening, With Good Speeches,
Held Last Night-DecOratiOns Are
Excellent.

The greatest auto show that was
ever held in the intermountain coun-
try and the first that has ever been
held in Idaho is open, containing more
makes of cars than ever displayed in
the famous Salt Lake shows, and hav-
ing one display which the manager of
a rival concern declares to be better
and more tastily arranged than any
thing to be seen at the great show
held recently in Chicago.
Everything from the great while pill
lars in the way leading into the tab
ernacle to the last item of detail is
dainty and bright and well arranged.
Flowers and palms neatly placed are
everywhere, but there is no undue pro-
fusion. All the effects are light and
cheerful and the big tabernacle is a
thing of beauty.
All day yesterday there was a steady
stream of people back and forth while
the busy workers put the finishing
touches on the display, and all was
ready when the curtain was drawn
aside on the stage and bandstand last
night for the formal opening cere-
monies.
Vice-President G. L. DeLong of the
Twin Falls Commercial club called the
]
itors welcome. He said that Twin Falls
should thank Boyd H. Fuller and his
associates for organizing such a mag
nificent show. 1t was at once an ad-
vertisement and an education. 1t
showed what had been done in the
last few years within the memory of
the young folks present. From the
old, one-cylinder invention the car had
developed into 12-cylinder affair run
( by 30-cent gasoline. He said that
there were more than 100000 cars in
existence, more than 2,400,0 600 of which
were in the United States. In some
states there was one car for every
five families. He closed by expressing
the hope that the mayor in comforting
the freedom of the city would give
the auto men to understand that speed
ordinances and parking ordinances
were not supposed to be in force dur
ing the show.
Mayor Sweeley in responding began
by saying that he had no statement tc
make relative to the laying aside OF
any ordinance, further than that the
police were not in the habit of locking
up any law violator whom they could
not catch. He said he had received sc
many kicks from others in his official
capacity that when he had chance
to kick someone else he usually went
on a spree. He had one great kick
on the auto men. They spent months
devising new ways for making cars
more efficient spent considerable time
convincing the man with the price that
he ought to buy, and then, after giving
him 20 minutes instruction On running
a car, they turned him loose on the
lnuhlic and cdmnqllpd the authorities tC
spend six months teaching him how tC
drive. lie thought they ought to teach
purchasers how to run cars properly
and there would be less trouble al
around The key was then conferred
with the caution that it would unlocl
all things in the city except two-th,

SPECIAL AUTO SHOW STORY
IN THURSDAYS TIMES.

Exhibitors from the large
cities of the east who follow up
the automobile shows all pro-
nounce the local show the finest
of any ever seen in the west,
and the equal of many shows
put on in the larger cities of the
east. The show has to be seen
to be appreciated, presenting, as
it does, almost unbelievable pic
ture of beautiful and luxurious
cars and artistic decorations.
In order to give the people of
Idaho a full account of this
event, which has never been par
alleled in the northwest, THE
TIMES has arranged with a To-
cal writer, Miss Jessie Warning
ton for a story of the show.
Miss Warrington needs no iIstro-
ductiOn to the people of south
ern Idaho as a writer of feature
articles. That the story will be
told in an interesting way goes
without saying, and those who
desire to have a description of
the biggest show of the kind
ever held in the intermountain
empire should preserve this is
sue, or, better still. read it and
send it along to friends in the
east.

Final Steps Taken at Meeting
Saturday Afternoon
CITY OFFICIALS AND OTHERS IN
TERESTED ARE PRESENT.
History of Birth of Private System
Told BY First Permanent Mayor of
Twin Falls.

Twin Falls now has a waterworks
system under the direction of Com
missioner j. W. Porter, who looks af-
ter the work of getting the water to
the ultimate consumer, and Clerk X.
NJ. Williams, who sees to it that the
consumer pays the freight. This was
the result of a transaction Saturday
whereby the city received $50, ,4SS from
the Lumberman Trust company of
Portland, which bought the bonds
through E. L. Kelly, its representative,
and in turn paid over $4,000 to E. B.
Critchlow, president of the water COM
pany, who transferred the proper
deeds and transcripts to the city. All
the city officials were present to see
the turning over of this great public
utility system to the municipality.
"The passing of the waterworks sys-
tenn into the hands of the city, reminds
me of the first waterworks that Twin
Falls ever had, and when rattlesnakes
instead of fish were found in the
water pipes" said S. T. Hamilton,
first permanent mayor of Twin Falls,
following a brief term of Paul S. A.
Bickel, to a TIMES representative.
"In 1904" continued Mr.. Hamilton" /"
the same men who afterwards organ
lied the water company, headed by g..
B. Critchlow, who was then attorney
for the Twin Falls Land & Water COM
pany The water was obtained from
Rock Creek and was pumped into an
old tub, which had been brought down
from Miner and placed on a wooden
frame. The old pump would work
away all day so that toward evening
we could get out and sprinkle the
lawns and streets by the time that
the stage arrived with prospective set
tiers There was seldom more than
enough water to lay the dust suffici-
emily for Max Miner and his kid
chums to play marbles on, but the
system made the desired impression.
About this time, the first power and
light system was started by lot of
us chipping in to maintain an old en-
CINE that was fastened down to one
side Of town. 1t cost a good deal but
we had an electric light system in our
town amidst the sage brush. We paid
SIS a month extra to keep it going.
The first pail here was hole blasted
in the side of Rock Creek canyon
which was a regular dungeon and
was a terror to evildoers. A humani-
tartan movement was started against
it and Fred Eickhoff, Fred Ramsey
and myself built a new one, though
we didn't get our money from the city
for a year.
"Oh, yes, about the rattlesnakes
Well, the first pipes of the original
system wero very small affairs, and
when they were laying down in what
was then the business part of town
some of them were left out on top OF
the ground over night In the morn
ing when the men went to put them
in, one of them began to sing. 1t was
discovered that an indignant rattleI
was on the iside and refused to come
out. After vainly striking the pipe on
rocks, first on one end and then on
the other, it was about decided to lei
his snakeship have his own time. but

Large Membership Leads to Dis
CuSSiOn on Building
ALL FILLED AT SERVICES WHEN
NEW MEMBERS JOINED.
PRESBYTERIAN Take Formal Referendum
on Subject to Be Completed by Wed
nesday Night.

To build or not to build is the ques-
ton that will be decided by the sew
eral churches connected with the con-
duct of the recent revival in this city
at their meetings in the near future.
All the churches connected with the
movement were uncomfortably filled
Sunday when many who made deci-
sions during the Oliver meetings form
ally joined the organizations, and 1t
is anticipated by many that the assur-
ed growth of the city during the sum-
mer will result in making either new
buildings or additions to the old ones
necessary. The denominations con-
nected with the meetings were the
Baptist, Brethren, Methodist and Pres
byterian.
The Presbyterians have appointed
committee which is taking what is
practically a referendum of the con-
gregation on the subject. The COM
mittee appointed to ascertain the SEN
timent of the people on the subject
consists of l.. l.. Breckenridge, J. Nc
MILAN and A. R. Ostrander. They
have issued a statement of facts and
at the bottom arranged ballot on
which the member may vote either yes
or no, after which space is left on
which to make remarks or suggestions.
The circular reads as follows:
Dear Fellow Christian:
"Your committee to whom was dele
gated the duty of ascertaining the SEN
timent of the congregation as to build
ing a new church this year, take this
method of reaching all members in the
short time allotted to us.
eve are very desirous of having you
OF l,o VI night
which will be a public reception of
nearly 200 new members. 1t is your
duty to come out and extend to them a
hearty welcome Immediately on re-
ceipt of this letter, please answer the
questions in the space below, adding
any remarks that you care make ex-
pressing your sentiment, as the COM
mittee can only be guided by the voice
of the congregation.
1.-THE present membership of the First
Presbyterian church is about 600, OF
whom more than 200 have been added
during the year just closed. The
church house was filled to its capacity

service even before the recent great
meetings What shall we now do? II
not the present imperative need the
loyalty conservation and earnestness
of the people, in fact every prevailing
condition and indication of Gods will
to us to give "place that these and
others may wdell with us" What dc
you think? We desire to know before
the meeting Wednesday night. If you
have any other solution than to build
now or feel that we should not now
undertake it, we especially would like
to hear from you at once.
please hand or mail your reply tc

COST OF ARMOR PLATE
TOPIC OF CONFERENCE
Question Is Discussed by Repre-
sentatives of Steel Plants and
Secretary Daniels.

Representatives. of the Bethlehem
Midvale and Carnegie steel plants had
a conference with Secretary Daniels at
the Navy Department today regarding
the cost of the manufacture of armor
plate for warships. The conference was
the Senate naval committee, which is
considering the question of the ad-
Visibility of the establishment of a
government armor plate plant The
private steel manufacturers were ex-
anined by the committee yesterday as
to the actual cost Of the armor now
supplied the government under con-
tract. Some of them gave the cost per
ton, but were not willing to give the
exact cost OF each of the items of pro-
duction at their respective plants.
Would Give Figures in Confidence.
II is understood, however, that Mr..
Dinkey, president of the Bethlehem.
said that while those figures were
trade secrets and should not be dis
closed to competitors, he was willing
10 give them in confidence to the Sec
Rotary OF the Navy or other represent
atiNe OF the government. Speaking of
that phase Of the matter, today Secre-
tary Daniels said he would not accent

the subject that could not be communi
Gated TO Congress or given to the n,,b

slides, is removed. it is presumed that
these dredges will be on the fstbmus
Tor some time 10 come-possibly as long
as the dredges are serviceable." Secre,
tary Garrison has written to Congress
IN urging that the approval Of the Gov
erhor OF the Panama Canal Zone shaI
De required before any dredge is trans
