DEWEY PALACE IS
POPULAR IN IDAHO

Nampa, Feb. Through it's modern
and llnexcelled hotel facilities, the
Dewey Palace hotel Of this city is fast
becoming one OF the most popular hos
telries of the west. It's manager, T.
n. Kerr, is of an extensive hotel eX-
perience, having been connected with
the management of the hotels of some
Of the larger cities of the east Since
he assumed control of the hotel, the
city has become the mecca of travel
ing men, and indicative of it's increas-
ing popularity is the fact that for
weeks past, it has almost been taxed
to its guest capacity.
Last night. it was compelled to send
IS guests elsewhere in the city conse-
quent to the large number Of people
registered as it's guests. The service
of the Dewey Palace hotel grill oper-
ated by Mr.. Nockelby is comparable
to that of the most modern eating
houses in the entire country, and the
favorable impression which it has
created among travelling men is mat
ter Of comment in this and other cities
throughout southwestern Idaho.

POINT OUT NEED OF
ADDITIONAL JUDGE

Caldwell. Feb. 3.--That the bill In
troduced In the state legislature this
week providing for an additional judge
for the Seventh judicial district should
be enacted into law Is the consensus
of opinion among the members of the
bar of this city. They stress the fact
that for many months the court docket
has been one of congestion and that
Judge Bryan has held court not only
through the days, but of evenings in
his effort to care for the work which
has accumulated for him through the
rapidly increasing business of the dis
trict. Illustrative OF the proportions
the docket Of the court has assumed
the past year is the fact that there
were filed on the docket the past year
62S cases or an average Of more than
two cases to be disposed of daily.
This abundantly evidences that his
energy has been taxed to its capacity.
Among the members of the local bar
there Is a pronounced unanimity Of
sentiment favorable to the passage Of
the bill and a general hope Is expressed
that the Judiciary committee Of the
legislature recognizes the necessity for
the additional Judge to relieve Judge
Bryan and enable the docket Of the
district to be kept well cleared.
