TOO BUSY
TO LEVEL ROADS

One of the reasons the boosters
of this county are after hard surface
roads is that just at the time when
the roads come most into every day
use the farmers have little time to
spare for keeping them dragged and
leveled while they are soft.
The Republican is in receipt of
a communication from Will Alfred,
road overseer of the G%randview dis
trict, holly refuting certain criticisms
about the roads in his district, which
he read in the Grandview news. He
declares the accusations false for the
that he tried to get the farm
ers out, and made a trip to nearly
every n personally to get men and
teams for road work, but found them
occupied with their own work. "They
too busy to work for the county"
says Mr.. Alfred. He further states
that he sent a special invitation to
his accusers to come out with teams
and level the roads. 1t is a situation
something like the bachelor house,
hold that maintained just one rule of
conduct: "He who kicks at the grub
shall cook"

Elk Runs With Cattle

Elk Runs With Cattle
Mr.. Cordes, of Jameston, is clear
ing up a new farm in the northeas
corner Of the county and J.. D. Pries1
is doing the work. This farm bears
the distinction of having a full
grown elk running at large on the
place. 1t was taken up when it was
small and it stays around with the
cows. Mr.. Priest has bought 16C
acres of land at $4,000 about three
miles northeast of Shelley.
W. D. Watson, of Idaho Falls, re-
Gently bought 80 acres of land at $50
per acre and has erected a new resid-
ence on the place. He has since
been offered 1920 per acre for it.
Mr.. Rice, of Jameston, reports hav-
ing lost IL of his cattle from ex-
posture during the winter. Many peo-
pie in that neighborhood have insult
ficient shelter for their stock and the
losses during the winter have been
heavy. Many of the animals that
did survive are in a very bad condi-
ton due to exposure and insufficient
feed.
G.. A. Anderson, of Jameston,
erected a modern home last year.
John Dick had a well drilled early
in May. He expected to go 120 feet,
but struck lava at SO feet. Andrew
Kendrick owns and operates the drill
ling machine.
Mrs. Job Harker age Y years met
with a singular accident the first of
May. One limb has been weak for
some time as a result of a paralytic
stroke. While turning around it gave
away by fracture in the hip. Mr..
Harker was one of the early settlers
in Utah having gone there in 1884.
He spent most of his life in Salt
Lake valley and in Idaho.
Alfred Harker, of Jameston, is
farming 80 acres of which Is will
be planted to beets provided the new
railroad is built. He planned to do
considerable grading this spring, but
on account of the lateness of the sea-
O and distemper among his horses
he had to let it go. He has rs acres
of hay and 20 acres in grain.

KANSAS CITY. No, December IA
jury in federal court hero yesterday
returned verdict Of guilty against
nine Of ten defendants charged with
conspiracy to obstruct the operation
of the selective draft law. Judge A S.
Van Valkenburgh sentenced the eight
convicted men to terms Of two years
each in the federal penitentiary and
fines Of $1,000 each and costs. and fined
the one woman, Mrs. Leonora warne-

Browder. Earl Browder, Edward Eagan
and Harry DOLL. The case against
Harvey D. Kleinschmidt, who was used
as a government witness. was con-
tinued.
The conspiracy with which the ac-
cused were charged consisted in the
organization of the Federation for
Democratic Control. the avowed pur-
pose of which was to defeat the pas
sage OF the selective draft law. and
through the courts. The defense was
that the defendants had acted within
their rights in seeking to test tho law,

while they had been opposed to the
war previous to Americas entry, they
were now behind the government and
ready to serve.
