MOTHERS
DAY

May 10 is a day set aside by some
body's happy thought to remind sons
and daughters that they have best
friend, perhaps far away, who would
be more pleased to receive a word
or a flower as a remembrance than
they can well imagine. 1t is day
when pons and daughters call up in
mind pictures of their childhood and
how it was surrounded by that
mother solicitude which without get
ting the least bit of appreciation at
the time nevertheless stores up OBJ
legation until it becomes a more
powerful emotion than any other
outside of love itself. And when
that mother receives the flower, the
gift or the letter, she will honor
it more than were it from king
or a president, and more than the
giver could ever earn by just deserts
in whole life of endeavor.

Owl Not Really Wise Bird.

Since 1t has been recognized that
the owl is beneficial bird, econom-
ically important as a destroyer Of
oats, mice and gophers, there Is al
increasing tendency TO restore its
classic significance. Like many peo-
pie Of deliberate manner and few
words, owls are not as wise as they
look. They are quite easily caught
in traps. In case the barn in which
the owls make their home catches fire
the owls usually burn to death. They
get along very well in captivity when
they are comfortably housed and fed
either mice or a variety Of food, but
they cannot live on diet Of raw pork
or beef.

BLACTlFOOTS
OPPORTUNITY

The first day of May ought to be
good day for Blackfoot. 1t ought
to mark the beginning Of bigger
things for the town and country.
A new city administration goes in
to office on May 1. There is not a
long winded" man in the bunch.
They are the kind of men who do
business and say little. Now that
the people have elected them to at
tend to the public business we doubt
If they will wait to be told what
ought to be done or wait for encour-
agement from the citizens before set
ting their hands to the individual
tasks.
A new hotel has just opened, and
on May 1 they begin serving meals
In the dining room. It opens up bet
ter facilities for taking care of peo-
pie when they come to town, and
many people have neglected coming
here because of the lack of such IA
cilities.
A number of new business houses
have opened, and there is greater
service in merchandise than before.
A better newspaper service keeps
people informed of current events
than ever before. There ape indica-
tions that the town will be cleaner
and more fit for residents and visit
ors than it ever has been. Why not
invite people to come here to trade!
II the business men will take a
suggestion from the editor of The
Republican they will rise to the oc-
casion and delegate some live fellow
to insert a page advertisement each
week for five weeks in the news
papers published back on the branch
lines and at Shelley, and in those ad-
vertisements will be set forth the
things that Blackfoot has in the way
of resources for farms and nor1es
and merchandise and service, and it
will bring results. We do not need
to reach out eastward for new set
tiers nearly so much as we need to
reach out and get in touch CONNER
cially with those already here and
in the back districts wanting chances
to spend their money for the very
things we have, but which they think
they have to go to other places to
find.

POTATOES DE LUXE

The Republican is indebted to
Richard ]. Ward for an interesting
piece of information. He sent out
a sheet from the Philadelphia In
quirer containing a market report
of which one item reads:
Idaho baking potatoes, IS cents
Dozen"
In the same list bananas are quot
ed at 10 to rs cents a dozen, straw
berries, 80 to 40 cents quart, pears
and grapefruit, 81 dozen.
1t is safe to say they don't call
the Idaho product "spuds" even in
joke, back there. Z.

Wanted the Usual Reward.

Ethel had been singing songs in q
kindergarten entertainment, and after
each rendition she had received hearty
applause. The next evening her moth
err had company, and she asked Ethel
If she would not sing one Of her songs
for the guest. Ethel complied with the
request, and when she had finished the
woman thanked her and complimented
her on her voice. But Ethel was I'M
satisfied. "If you likes it," she COM
planned, "why don't you clap?"

Not All Varieties Edible,

"Some people who know say that
there are many cheap and nutritious
foods which are neglected. For exam
pie, there is nutrition In all kinds of
nuts"
"But we can't eat all kinds of nuts,
my dear. Even to reduce the high
cost Of living, we can't be cannibals."

TRUNK FILLED WITH
 BOOZE CONFISCATED

Following the general idea that wherever there's odor there must be booze" local officers Saturday night confscated a trunk filled with booze. The trunk arrived at the Fl Paso and Southwestern freight office several days ago and was not claimed. Sat urday employees noticed a pool of what appeared to be water around the trunk. They investigated It was not water. The officers were notified and took possession of the trunk. When they opened it they found it filled with blankets. In each of the blankets was a number of pockets and in each pocket was a bottle of booze. Unfortunately for the owner, one Of the bottles had sprung a leak and the rare liquid escaped. The booze will be destroyed

ASSESSED VALUATION NOW BASIS SALARIES
 OF VARIOUS OFFICERS
Old Method of Classification, Based on Population, Will Be Changed When Bill Goes Into Effect.

Arizona's various counties and the
 state, at large, will pay their officers
 on a basis ot assessed valuation ln- stead of on a basis of population as has been the case i'll the past. The county classihcauon measure was passed by the state legislature the last day of the session and is now in
 Governor Campbelrs hands for sigma ture.
 under the old classification there was but one first class county. That was Maricopa. Under the former law, governing the subject, counties having 35,000 or over Tn population were first class. Cochise came under the second classification, or between 25,OOO and 5000.
 Making the classification on a basis of assessed valuation places Cochise county at the head of the list Other counties in the same class are Mari copa. Gila and Yavapai. The basis is $5O,O00, 900 or over tor counties of the first class. The changes in state of- hNtAS anu NOuhAs OhhNNAo Shioi ANo oAN not extreme.
 The new bill will allow the follow ing salaries for officers in the state house: governor, S6,500. secretary of state. S3,500. state auditor. $S,000, at torney general S4,000. superintendent of public instruction, SS,000. members of the corporation commission. S3.000 each, state mine inspector $3,000. members of the tax commission S3,000 each. chief justice of judges of the supreme court 5000 each, clerk Of the supreme court S2,70O. judges of the superior courts of Cochise, Mari copa. Gila and Yavapai S4,500 each.
 In only one case has the salary of a county officer been raised by the new classification, that being the as sessOr. whose salary was raised from S2,400 to S2,700. In every other case of a principal the salary has neither been raised nor lowered.
