didn't get started very easiy, ~ maLy things
to do IN the mo, ming.
We went BY the way Of Hancock. ! never
saw 90 many rocks - there are in the road.
The view was pretty. After we canse into
the Lamcine road We found nice travelling.
when We came TO your house, :. J. Y, Tom"
wanted to call, for he started to 70 into the
yard. / looked ~ We went by. and saw
someone passing through the room. think
YOU had Just arrived home from church.
AZ we came 10 sight OF the river, We could
see the bottom Of It, aud think you could
almost walk Hcross to Trenton. 1t 10 pretty
view TO LOOK across the river TO the farms on
the other side. ard look down and see the
mountains ON Mount Desert island.
Al LAmoine corner. which Is quite . little
village, they had built = very nice grange hall
since was there last. We went past the
church. A. We went into the forest, 1t was 80
cool and pleasant.
We went across through the woods- 1t is
pleasant drive. but am always afraid Of meet
ing team.
shortly after We came In sight Of the house
and Mshala feeding in the fed. Then we
were in the yard and they met US with warm
welcome. From their piszza We could look
right over to the coaiing station and see the
ships there.
About O'Clock we started for home, after
. asant visit. AS we came In sight Of the
river ag Ain, the water was rather too deep for
walking across. We came home on the La
moline road. It was . beautiful "trip and .
pleasant visit, but there is no place like home
after all.

SOUR GRAPES PAIN
LITTLE FRED'S TUMMY
Member Third House Finds the Leg
islative Session a CHASTITY and Eel
OneOus Failure.

Declaring that the session of the
legislature just closed was the worst
log-rolling affair ever witnessed in the
state. and that out of the more than
two hundred measures pa d,
scarcely one, aside from the Work
mems Compensation Act, was of any
general benefit to the state, Fred
Nihart returned to Bull Wednesday
after spending nearly ten weeks in
Boise in the interest of Bull county
says the Bull Pioneer Bull county
will have to wait at least two years
more, but everybody in the state has
become acquainted with the fact that
the people of the Bull section want
to be separated from Twin Falls
county, and it is believed that it is
only a matter of time until their
hopes will be realized.
at was the worst log-rolling ses-
sion the state has ever experienced,
said Mr. Nihart, when asked for a
statement. Every few if any of the
measures were considered on their
merits. Trades and deals were in
evidence on every hand, and many
comments were heard from some OF
Bosses best citizens in regard to the
Wholesale violation of section 64l3
of the revised statutes of the state,
which makes it a felony for any mem
Der of the legislature to give or offer
To give any vote in consideration that
another member of the legislature
shall give any such vote either upon
the same or another question" Mr..
Nihart called attention to the fact
that appropriations were swelled in
the state, and it is his opinion that
less good was accomplished for the
state than at any other session.
