All Quiet-Inquiry, both yesterday
and today, at the Farm Bureau, the

vised some time since that we had
with us at least five hundred mem
bers of the 1. w. w. This report did
not commend itself at any stage of the
game; and it would now appear less
probable than ever.

Falls boys in the marine corps are
"all in the best of health and thriving

There has been a rumor circulating
about Twin Falls that we, or some of
us, will be leaving for France or else
where in a few days. That is a mis-
take. In the first place, nobody
higher authorities; in the second
place, it is practically certain that
none of us will leave within three
weeks. DO not consider that this in

three weeks may not be anywhere
near it The date of leaving and our
destination are two things which are
not to be known, either outside nor

Musical Festival
People Entertained
The Singers Accept Invitation of Mr..
and Mrs. Butler-SOme Business
and Much SOciability-A Financial
Statement

The invitation of Mr.. and Mrs. But
Ter for last Friday evening was &C
cepted by a large representation of the
singers who participated in the Coun- |
ty Musical Festival which was not
only the event of last week, but the
greatest musical event in the history
of the Twin Falls country. The in
tention had been to hold the meeting
on the lawn for which lights and dec
orations had been arranged. This is
generally a safe proposition at this
time of year, but did not prove so in
this instance, as just enough rain fell
to make the grass wet and drive the
company in doors, where it was some
what crowded but wholly cheerful.
Promising that it was proper and
desirable that the public know all the
facts in connection with the finances
of the festival, the chairman of the
committee having them in charge read
the following statement:

The twice-a-week Twin Falls times. (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1916-1918, 1917-08-21

Monday, was not expected to create
disturbance in this city and vicinity,
and not a ripple appeared above the
surface. There may have been num-
Der of reasons that this was so-one
of which there are probably few per-
sons who will have known or con-
sidered. And that is the complete
condition of preparedness" brought
about by our local peace officers un-
der the direction and leadership OF
Sheriff Kendall. There has been no
sounding of trumpets; few people
have known, or thought, anything
about it. But the fact is nevertheless,
that the sheriff of Twin Falls county
is now, and for two or three months
has been, so situated that sworn or
ganized. thoroughly prepared and ade-
quately numerous force could be call
ed into action at almost any point IN
the county upon the shortest possible
notice. Now, while this was hardly
known or noticed by the general pup
lie, you can be sure that any person
or persons who were meditatlng mis-,
chief would be better informed-anu
would be governed accordingly IN
addition to all this, there is Well
organized company of "home guards
in Bull, Filler and Kimberly, as Wei
as Twin Falls, each and all OF whlch
would be at the service of the sherlIi
in case of need.

Prices of fruit seemed rather high
when what was sold here came tlf-
teen hundred miles from the Imperial
Valley, or from other points not quite
so distant. But the real puzzle IS
presented when the homegrown prod
uct comes into market at still high
err price. The fruit grower has had a
hard enough time in these parts and
needs a benefit; but, just the same
1-3 cents a pound for peaches, etc,
and 1919 cents a pound for tomatoes
comes pretty nearly being prohibitive

tion, as well as different building mate
rtals- No such extensive operation of
this kind has heretofore been attempt
cd in this section of the country, in
