FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY AND REST
ROOM FOR SHoSHONE AND
VICINITY

The Shoshone Study club has main
tanned the free public library for the
last four years Starting with a few
volumes. which they have increased
from time to time with money raised
by the club and donations from pri-
vate citizens, they have about 45O
volumes on the shelves at present
The demands have become so great
on the library that it has been turned
over to the city in order that it may
receive an adequate support and fill
a larger place in the community. In
September the city council levied a
tar for its maintainance and appoint
ed a governing board consisting of
four members from the Study club
and fifth member from the city coun-
Gil.
The room which has formerly
been the telephone office has been
rented and will be open each afternoon
with Mrs. J. S. Wheeler in charge.
There will be a well-equipped rest
room in connection with the library,
a place which win make an ideal head
quarters for women and children COM
ing in from the country Later, if it
seems advisable. the room will be open
evenings for those who want a genial
place to sit and read
The Study club has long dreamed of
a handsome library building for Sho- |
shone and this branching out, which
has been made possible with the gen.
erous aid of the city council is but /
another step toward the goal that is.
if the citizens of Shoshone will give
such an enterprise their hearty support
Few can realize, except the generous
who have given so much time
to the library work for the past four
years. what influence for good a Ii
orary may be in the community, since
by far the greater percentage of the
patrons are the young people of the ,
own and vicinityh

Davis the Farmers Friend

When a thousand persons out of a
something.
Power county did that for D w
/ Davis, the farming class before all
others. He belongs 70 that class.
At twelve years of age he began
shoveing coal in an Iowa mine. At
sixteen he quit and clerked in store
Of which he became the manager at
twenty three. He later began farming
for himself along with which activity
he entered banking.
Mr.. Davis has been a farmer stock
man for years. The fact that ne does
not personally conduct the details of
his farm work and give his time TO
stepped into another class Of society
1t does mean. however that his bust
ness ability has led him into great
er responsibilities Of financing other
farmers.
In the earley development of the
American Falls country, he told the
town business men, You will have to
look elsewhere for financial backing
The farmers who are developing this
country will need all the money I can
supply"
He helped buy implements, fences.
seed and teams when all the security
they could offer was some raw land and
lot of grit. Most bankers will not
take such a risk.
Many of the payments were long de-
ferred and some losses occurred. yet
the work of development went on. d.
W. Davis was improving land of his
own and knew the needs and diff
culties of the settlers In new country.
He had staked all on the worth of
the Idaho land and the integrity of
the settlers Is it any wonder that
the farming class is now showing him
the same loyalty that he once showed
them?

act troubles he does not speak from
hearsay, nor does he utter lately
formed principles designed to catch
votes.

PROTECTION FOR
IDAHO SETTLERS
WHERE D. w. DAVIS STANDS

WHERE D. w. DAVIS STANDS
(Extract from report of speech de-
livered at Gooding, Oct "a. by D. w.
Davis, Republican candidate for Gov
ernor, as published in the Gooding
Leader oct 26)
Mr.. Davis made statement of his
position with reference to Carey act
propects, prefacing his remarks with
the explanation that he was thorough
ly conversant with this subject. as all
of the lands that he owned, with the
exception of 40 acres, We're under the
Ameriran Falls segregatios, a Carey
act project. The settlers on that pro-
ject had been compelled to organize
and complete the work themselves and
for many years he was president of
this organization. He therefore view
ed the subject from the standpoint of
the water user.
Following is a verbatim statement
Of Mr.. Davis position on Carey ACT
matters as furnished by him to the
Leader:
4 stand for a square deal on Carey
act projects. and if am elected
governor l shall insist that every con-
troversy affecting Carey act projects.
the settlers, the contracting company
and the state, must be taken up before
the land board or the courts, so that
the settlers as well as the promoters
shall be given a full and free oppor-
tunity to be heard. That no meeting
of the land board shall be held affect
ing the turning over to the settlers OF
the completed project unless the set
tiers have an opportunity to be pres
ent as set forth their views as to
accepting said jroject from the con-
tracing company This applies also
to other matters pertaining to Carey
act projects. for in my opinion the
settlers must be given a fair and
square deal
THE first and greatest duty of the
state is to the settler. The state must
not repudiste its honest debts and OBJ
legations The interests of the settler
who may be financially unable to ap-
pear for himself. or hire an attorney
or representative to appear for him.
must be protected
"The state must carry out its moral
obligation and not allow any settler
to become bankrupt while waiting for
the promised protection and justice
Carey act projects must be com
pleted as per contracts with the set
tiers and must not be turned over to
the settlers in an uncompleted condi-
tion: necessitating large expenditures
by the settlers to complete the pro-
ject
IF any loss must be incurred the
contracting company, rather than the
settler. must stand the loss
1.-The proper settlemtnt of the Carey
act problem is one of the most impor-
ant in the state today and our land
board must settle it in justice to the
settler who has banked upon the good
faith of the state through its land de-
partment'

Water Users associations. similar in
object to the present Salmon Settlers
associations, Davis was elected presi
dent The association took charge of
the canal company and finally so ad-
justed the project that it is now sue
cessful.
He has heard land board agents at
various drawings declare that the state
stood behind the projects and that the
settlers could mot lose. AS settler
he has always held the position that
the state has a responsibility which
1t cannot shirk-to enforce the full
filling OF it's contracts without cost
to the settler and to ensure him againsa
loss to his contract.

nothing, first hand. either of the farm

A.MUSE.I THEATRE,

Today-Grace Cunard in Her Bet ter Self The story is absorbing from tho very start and the interest never lags, but increases until the denouement, which is exciting be- yond words. This is one of the best two reel dramas ever shown on the screen. and you will take firm hold on your seat during the stirring bat tie with the band of crooks. who have terrorized high society for many moh'ns. The story starts off with fvette. known as society woman, but in reality leader of clever gang of crooks, sits at the tele- phone, laughing at the impulsive young man at the other end of the wire, who is imploring her to let him see her to plead his case. Yvette still laughs when Ralph threatens to kill himself if she does not promise to marry him. Hearing her mocking laugh over the wire he pulls the trig- ger and ends his life just as the crook. who is robbing his safe few feet away, sees him and pulls his own gun to protect himself, should Ralph see him. At the other end of the wire Yvette stops laughing long enough to pick up the receiver to tell the young man he may call; unaware of the tragedy at the other end of the line. This is a thriller and is di- rected by Grace herself.

BEST THEATRE.

Today, "The Reform Candidate" '" which stars the celebrated American actor. Maclyn Arbuckle, in another of the highly entertaining Pallas pie lures, contains one specially sensa- tional exhibition of fine acting. This is given by Charles Ruggins, for sev- eral seasons popular matinee idol, who has heretofore been restricted to juvenile roles with his principal task the wearing of good clothes and being clever and who has yet won the repu- .tation of being one of the best light comedians among the younger men in the business. Ruggles gives an as- founding piece of character work in the unaccustomed role of the pathetic "halfwit, "Looney" Jim. His hang ing lip, his vacant stare, his shrewd grins. and the uneanny cunning which prompts him to sign "a brok- enhearted mother" to the letter with the baby he leaves on the politicians doorstep are all unerringly typical of a mind unhinged. "The Reform Can didate" will do much for the name of young Charles Ruggles.
 Myrtle Stedman. Forrest Stanley and other Pallas picture favorites are in the supporting cast.
