GROCERY STORE SOLD
TO REAL ESTATE AND
AUCTION COMPANY

The Blackfoot Real Estate & Auc-
ton company for some time have
felt that they needed more room, in
view of their rapidly increasing bust
ness, and with that interest in mind
they bought out the firm of Ostrom
& Radford, groceries, at the corner
of Bridge and Main streets, Monday.
An invoice of the stock has been
taken and will be disposed Of in
the near future; just how they were
not at liberty to state at the time
of going to press. The Blackfoot
Real Estate & Auction company will
occupy the building and plan to fit
it up in a most complete fashion.
Mr.. Radford, who has managed
the grocery store will spend some
time in Mackay and Yellowstone
park, before he answers his call for
United States military service.

al information about Bingham coun-

For several weeks following that
date each issue will have some more
special articles on the same subject,
and persons desiring to advertise
their county can do SO without ex-
pense by mailing their copies of the
paper to friends or homeseekers af-
ter reading them. 1t is no trouble
at all; just buy quarters worth of

in large part the composition of dis
turbing difficulties that now finds the
community at peace with itself.
| Judge Goodwin's desire for the ad-
vancement of Utah to a high place
in the United States was strong-it
constituted one of his highest ambi-
tions. When the Edmunds-Tucker
act was being so rigidly enforced in
Utah by federal officials in the sos
Judge Goodwin was one of those who
urged that the people relieve them
selves of their woe by relinquishing
the practice of polygamy, the source
of most Of their troubles.
Acceptance Urged
When in 1890 President Wilford
Woodruff of the Mormon church is
sued the now famous manifesto, in
hibiting polygamous practices, a
manifesto which was at the October
conference of that year ratified by
the people, Judge Goodwin began to
experience the relief born of con-
scientious effort coming to its re-
ward. He was one of those to urge
upon President BENJAMIN Harrison,
who then occupied the White House
at Washington, an acceptance of the
manifesto as sincere evidence of
the determination Of the dominant
church to bring it's membership en-
tirely within the sphere Of good citi-
zenship.
In 1901 Judge Goodwin retired
from The Tribune and later estab-
lished Goodwin's Weekly. He also
was for some years chief editorial
writer on the Evening Telegram at
the same time attending to his duties
on the weekly publication.
Pursuing his work for the com
monwealth of Utah, just as it was
about to become a sovereign state,
Judge Goodwin was member of the
constitution convention, and in that
capacity did splendid service for all
the citizens of the community.
Judge Goodwin was the author of
several widely-read books, including
1.-THE Comstock Club" "The Wedge
of Cold" "The Divine Light" and
"As Remember Them" a volume
of recollections of western men. To
the end of his life he worked tire
lessly, his mind retaining all the IA
cility of his more active days.
Judge Goodwin was married in
California to Miss Alice Maynard, of
which union there are two children,
James Todman Goodwin and Mrs.
Robert Parker.

DEATH OF JUDGE GOODWIN
Continued from page one

dealer, sawmilI operator, school
teacher, lawyer. prospector, miner
newspaper reporter and editor, mag.
azine writer and author of several
books. In all of these he had made
success, met with misfortune, braved
difficulties, overcome obstacles that
seemed almost insurmountable-a
thru his entire course he had played
the part of manhood with the high
ideal uppermost in his mind and with
a determination to make others as
conscientious in their duties of citi-
zenship toward the nation as he him
self aimed to be.
On arriving at San Francisco
Judge Goodwin went Immediately to
the little town of Marysville. Cali
fornia. In the mountains near there
he established and operated saw
mill. After five years of hard work,
he was doomed to meet his first ca
lamity. His sawmill burned down
and he lost the fruits of that five
years of toll. This did not daunt his
determined spirit, rendered more
firm by the utter repose = of his
character, but he went back into the
town Of Marysvale and began teach
ing school.
Adding to these duties, he spent
every spare moment of his time
studying law under his brother, who
was deemed to be one of the fore
most lawyers on the coast in those
early days and who afterward served
with distinctive honor on the bench.
Friend of Mark Twain
In 1859 Judge Goodwin moved to
Plumas county, California, remaining
in that locality, practicing law, for
nearly year. In 1850 he went into
Nevada. where he was later admitted
to practice before all the courts of
that commonwealth. Here he be-
came associated with many of the
famous characters who made the his
tory of that state. Judge Goodwin
was the friend and companion of
such men as Mark Twain, Dan De-
guile" and Joseph T. Goodman. 1t
was in Nevada that Judge Goodwin
really began his literary career, and
his later work in describing the MAX
ing of the state and in depicting the
characters of the men who acomp-
lished the making achieved national
renown for it's literary worth.
Associated with Levi Hite, Judge

Goodwin built quartz mill on Car.
son river, but again was frowned
upon by tickle fortune. One of the
worst floods known in the Carson
river up to that time came down up.
on the quartz mill and swept 1t away
When Nevada was admitted to
statehood Judge Goodwin went to
Washoe county, where he was elected
one Of the first district judges In the
new sovereign commonwealth. He
held this position for three years or
more, discharging his duties with
| fidelity to the state and with honor
to himself and his constituents.
Office Not Sinecure
At that time the office of district
judge was not the sinecure that
might be imagined by citizens of old
er communities. The country was
wild and woody" in the extreme
sense of that term. 1t was filled
with strong characters, some of them
better citizens because of that char
acteristic and others not so scru-
pulOus. There were adventures in
the mining regions whose enmity it
was no comforting thing to earn. An
adverse decision against their inter-
ests, however just, was sometimes
likely to bring down the wild wrath
of wild men upon the offender.
But Judge. Goodwin's wisdom, his
strict adherence to justice and fair
ness. his reputation turnout the state
for square dealing with all his fell
lows and his serenity and kindness
kept him safe from harm and gave
him life standing in the hearts of
all with whom he came in contact.
At the end of his term as district
judge Mr.. Goodwin became editor of
the Inland Empire at Hamilton,
White Pine county. Nevada. But the
mining fever of those days caught
the judge, in common with thou
sands of others. This time he sue
cessfully operated furnace at Eure-
ka, Nevada, later purchasing the
Jackson mine, which he ran in con-
nection with the furnace. He then
moved back into California, but did
not remain there long.
Going again into Nevada, he be-
came associated with r. M. Daggett
in the Virginia City Enterprise. Mr..
Daggett was lated elected to congress
and Judge Goodwin took over entire
control Of the Enterprise, remaining
with the paper until 1880, when he
came to Utah.
His Work In Utah
In Utah Judge Goodwin engaged
in mining at Maryvale, but his ability
as forceful writer being recognized
by his new-found friends here he was
called to the newspaper field. In
May, 1880, he became editor in chief
Of The Salt Lake Tribune, holding
that important position for about 81 |
years. His service as editor of The
Tribune included that period of the
history of the territory and state of
Utah in which occurred perhaps the
greatest unrest in advancing the COM
monwealth to a secure place in the |
nation
Here again the wisdom of Judge |
Goodwin and his uncompromising |
loyalty to the country served the peo-
pie to final good purpose. To his
his firm but kindly |
Insistence upon respect for the insti-
buttons of the country and his native
dignity and serene remeanor is due

Washington, Sept. 1.-The American
Red Cross has perfected plans for
Americans who may be captured and

oner's relief committee has been or
ganized AT Berne, Switzerland, under

Speedy provisions for their Keller

policy of giving prisoners food totally

health.

ready being dispatched from Berne to
the Americans in Germany, and ar
