Editor Gazette:
Being a lot owner in the old Christ
Church cemetery and one who has
always placed flowers, weekly, on
the graves of my loved who are bur
led there, write this communica-
ton that it may be published and
probably read by the guilty ones who
have been robbing the graves in this
cemetery of the flowers placed on
graves by the family and friends OF
the dead.
Seven or eight years ago the lot
owners in this cemetery experienced
the same trouble, and after investlga-
ton we found the guilty ones, and
upon their promise never to let 1t oc-
cur again they were not prosecuted
Some of the grave-robbing vandais
are at work again and the past two
Saturdays I have carried flowers to
the cemetery and placed them on the
graves in my lot, and upon going to
the cemetery on Sunday l have found
the ported plants and bouquets gone
Why can't this be stopped? Why
rob the dead of the flowers which Is
the last act on this earth that can be
done by their friends.
The dead should rest in peace and
not have their graves robbed OF tne
flowers which are so plentiful at
this season of the year. Lot owner

and Thomas with the First National
Bank of Jerome means that this bank
is now one of the strongest in South
ern Idaho. 1t is also a substantial
vindication of Jerome and the North
Side Tract. These gentlemen have
watched the development and progress
here and are thoroughly conversant
with the conditions, and the substan-
tial investment they are making should
and will inspire confidence should any
be lacking. Mr.. Gooding is closing out
a good part of his extensive sheep in
terests, and financially is one of the
strongest men in the-state. Besides. it
may Just as well be said now as at any
other time, that Fred W. Gooding Is
one of the best business men in the
state, as well as one Of the most like
able and approachable and sociable
men in the state. He Is conservative
and farseeing and his judgment in all
matters is dependable. The news is
certain that in the interests acquired
by Messrs. Gooding and Thomas, Jer-
ONE and the North Side Tract has
secured a valuable addition to its busi-
ness and financial community that
will be strongly felt.

DIETRICH NOTES.

While the Dietrich tract is not star
of the first magnitude it is at least
bright little spot in the armament. It
is not great in population or wealth
Its population is indicated by its voting
strength Of about 200 men and women,
and its wealth-or rather the lack of
it is shown by unpaid store bills
while they courageously work on for
better conditions. Seven years ago the
men of the tract were entrymen here
and they have not got we'll if it yet.
But they are getting better. and can
now look forward with confidence to
complete restoration. While short in
numbers and finances they are long in
patriotism. The Red Cross, that most
humane of all human enterprises.
wanted to raise a hundred million dol
lars to be used as required in caring
for sick and wounded soldiers of the
world. We were told that our quota
was s25e and we answered with $500.
Verify if a soldier asks for bread we
will not give him stone. but two
breads. and tell him to let us hear from
him when more is wanted.

BILLIE coTTLE DEAD.

~. G. cottle. known to his friends
as Billie Cottle, died Thursday in a
Shoshone hospital of heart disease.
Mr.. Cottle enlisted from Shoshone for
the Philippine war, after being mus
tered out of the service he returned to
Shoshone and has been working IN
this vicinity ever since. The past
three years he has been in the employ
of Thos. H. Gooding, as ranch hand.
Mr.. Cottle was quiet retricent man
who never talked of himself and dur
ing all of these years no one here ever
learned a thing of his past life, where
he came from, who his folks We're or
where they were. A short time before
he died he told the nurse that he came
from Cleveland, Ohio. but that he had
not written home for fifteen years or
more. kilograms of inquiry were sent
to Cleveland to locate his relatives if
possible but at time of going to press
no reply had been received.

GET SW EET.

About thirty ladies' and girls gathered
in the domestic science room at the
high school building Thursday after
noon, to witness a demonstration of
the making of strawberry preserves by
Mrs. Havsns. recognized fruit expert
of Utah and Idaho. Mrs Havens is
employed by the sugar companies of
the Northwest to demonstrate the su-
perior qualities of beet sugar. Mrs.
Havens was connected for two years
with the Utah Chamber Of Commerce.
and has spent more than that time in
practical and scientific work in the
line of her speciality and sugar
During her talk Mrs. Havens gave
many suggestions that are of great
value to the Miss, just learning the
secrets of fruit canning, and also to her
mother who has had years of practical
experience, but whose most convincing
reason for doing things is, 'Tve always
been told"
The reporter regrets that she had to
leave before the preserves were finish
ed. and before the meeting of the ladies
was called to order.

THE GLORY OF AMERICA.

The great heart of America was
touched Red Cross week as it has never
been before. No such contribution for
such cause was ever before secured
in any nation, and they just won't
quit. The Red Cross asked for one
stream poured into the treasury of the
society until the hundred million mark
was reached, and still it kept coming
until on Thursday morning it was re-
ported at one hundred fifteen millions
with still many places to hear from
and the probability is that it will reach
one hundred fifty million dollars. No
such generous gift YVES ever before
made by any nation to the suffering
peoples of the world, and it is also true
that never in the history of the world
has there been so much suffering and
human misery in existence at any one
time before.
This magnificent subscription is also
a notice to our own boys that we want
you all to come home again sound and
we'll and those of you who of necessity
must suffer we will do all in our power
to mitigate your wants and supply
your necessities.
On Wednesday night of this week
Idaho had raised s460.00O with the
probabilities that when all reports are
in it will approach the half million
mark.
Lincoln county was asked 10 raise
$4,000. This amount was divided into
two equal portions and the Jerome
tract was asked to raise one half of
the amount while the north end of the
county would raise the other half.
DR.. zeller was appointed chairman
for Shoshone and he appointed John !
Bailey as campaign manager. Mr.. /
Badley divided the territory about
Shoshone into three districts and ap !
kinted as captains of districts. Weir I
Baker and Walter White for the north
side of town and A.. l. McMahon and
Lee johnson for the south side of town
with J. L. Beckett and r. J. Mcmahon
for the North Shoshone tract. Rich
field was organized separately with
W. S. Parkhurst as chairman. Diet
rich was also placed under a separate
with ]. NJ Clark as chair
man and o. E. Borden as campaign
The s2500 asked of this end of
the county was apportioned as follows:
Shoshone $500. Richfield $3.50 and
rich little more than doubled her
or gave $500. Shoshone
more than doubled her $500. reaching
.bout $500 and Riohfild is reported to I

A GOOD WEEKS WORK.

An irrigation dam in Utah destroyed,
three cities of from 1900 to 2500 in
habitants practically destroyed. several
thousand acres of farm lands with
their crops destroyed. the railroad
leading to the Castle Gate coal fields
damaged so as to stop the working
of the coal mines at Castle Gate from
which large portion Of the coal sup
ply for Utah and Idaho is mined Also
the destruction of the irrigation dam att
Haines Oregon and the devastating oil
several thousand acres of crops. with
the practical destruction of an Oregon
town of several hundred people. Now
don't you think that a pretty good
record for one week of INTERNAL
DESTRUcTION?' The same weeks
record of the whole German submarr-
inc fleet can't beat it. Yet we sit
around like lot Of chumps and permit
these things to Happen" right here
in our midst.

have raised around $11OO. This just
about doubles the amount asked from
this end of the county and Jerome has
done equally as we'll But proud of
Lincoln county as we all are we must
take off our hats to Twin Falls county
which raised more than eighty thous-
and dollars for the fund.
Eveyone connected with the work of
soliciting here in Shoshone is deserving
of public thanks for his unselfsh
effort. Campaign manager Bailey
wishes to especially thank Miss Sharp
and Elmer Walker since they gave all
of their time and many late hours to
the work. Miss Sharp as stenographer
and Mr.. Walker as bookkeeper and
auditor.
The Journal gave two pages of ad-
vertising space in last weeks issue for
the cause and Campaign Manager Bad
ley appointed Mrs. E. C. Gooding. Mrs
Paul Haddock. Mrs. Horace Baugh and
Mrs. Hail Horne as a committee TO sell
the space. The Journal wishes to
thank these ladies for the prompt and
highly efficient manner in which they
did their work. They had the space
all sold and every bit of copy in the
office Monday evening so that the shop
was able to handle the large amount of
extra work without delaying the issue
of the paper for that week.
PLEASANT FEATURES OF THE Z
CAMPAIGN.
The campaign entailed much hard |
work on those conducting it. but the
hearty response to their solicitations
added much to the pleasure of the
work. On first call a very few persons
refused to respond. SO far as the
Journal is able to learn all but one or
two of these parties afterward repented ]
and clicked" through a good contri-
button. To offset such incidents, how
ever, were the efforts of so many per-
sons to give more than the committee
felt they should give. and the many
persons VINO evidently gave beyond
their limit to such an extent as to make
the giving a real sacrifice. On persons
whose total assets were represented by
forty cents gave the entire amount.
Now if John Rockefoller-but what's
he use of wasting time and energy in
