SOCIETY NOTES
Announcement Party

Announcement Party
 "On Thursday afternoon from 2.3O to 5 o'clock, was the invitation delivered to their friends by Mrs. Edwin Johnson and Mrs. Clymer D. Jeffries of this city.
 Red Cross work has so occu-= pied the time recently of the so- cial element of the town, that a real party was source of un- usual joy. At the appointed time the beautiful new home of Mrs. Johnson was filled to ov- erflowing with brilliant throng of merry-makers. En- tering the large shaded porch, which was decorated with the national colors, one was greet ed by sweet strains of music from a concealed orchestra and the fragrance of many flowers, which adorned the spacious re- ception rooms.
 Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Jeffries, Mrs. Buggeln and Miss Edna Buggeln, daintily gowned in shimmering summer stuffs formed the receiving line and graciously welcomed their guests. Frame your mind to mirth and merriment, which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life" was the motto of the occasion. Accordingly, conversation, laughter and mu- sic were much in evidence.
 At four o'clock delicious re- treatments in two courses were served. Suspicion was aroused at the second course which con- sisted of pink cakes adorned by turtle doves and heart shaped ices. Carrying out the color scheme, baskets of corsage bou- quets of pink and white sweet peas were passed to each guest.
 Concealed amidst the flow CTS were small envelopes con- taining tiny betrothal cards, announcing the engagement of Miss Edna Buggeln and MT. Ed win Rabbit, of Flagstaff. Dur ing this time Mrs. Irene Lee sang very charmingly to an or ehestral accompaniment "I love You Truly. It was then ob- served that the bride-elect wore a shower bouquet of pink and white, but her flower face was a red, red rose.
 Oh, Love! Young Love!
 Bound in thy rosy band.
 Let sage or cynic prattle
 as he will,
 These hours, and only these,
 redeem Life's years of ill.
 Miss Buggeln, as a member of the younger social set of Williams, is one of the most charming and popular girls in this section. She is the young CT daughter of MT. and Mrs Martin Buggeln, prominent ir the social and business life o1 Williams. MT. Rabbit is the son of David Babbitt of Flag. staff and is associated with the firm of Babbitt Brothers of that place as manager of the auto. mobile branch of the business
 The out of town guests al the announcement were: Mrs George Babbitt, Miss Margaret Babbitt, Miss Gertrude Bab. bitt and Miss Regina Meek, o1 Flagstaff, and Miss May Le Grand and Miss Frances Daily of Los Angeles.

 minimum of trouble and no eX- pense.
 The old town of Ajo was practically destroyed by fire before we came, but the new town of Ajo is splendidly built up of all hollow tile and cement buildings in the old Spanish style around a beautiful plaza. This plaza is the pride of the company and the town and would be a credit to any city in the United States. It has been planted to grass, which is kept watered and is always green, and, being we'll kept, is like a large velvet carpet. In the center is a large cement band stand, surrounded by a large flower bed, all enclosed in cement and kept green and blooming by constant water and care.
 Around the band stand is a large circle of smooth cement, which is kept waxed and used for dancing. The mining com pany keeps this up. The town and mining company have or ganized an excellent band and orchestra, which plays for a dance every Wednesday and Saturday night, and which is free to all soldiers.
 This mine was worked by old Spanish Fathers 200 years ago. The ore was taken by boat to Cornelia, Spain, and smelted there. After machin- cry was introduced and other mines nearer to the railroad were opened, this mine was abandoned. When this con- pany took it up, they built a railroad 46 miles from Gila Bend, on the Southern Pacific, and spent S6,OOO,OOO getting the mine and teaching plant in shape. The town was planned after the town of Cornelia, Spain, and when the company finally finishes, it will be dup licate of the Spanish town and will be beautiful place.
 | The plant uses the teaching system and is one of only three in the United States that is able toturn out practically pure cop per, which is available for con sumption without any further process. The plant at present
 is putting out practically 1O0,-
 900 pounds per day and will in
 crease this amount in a short
 time. This is very valuable
 asset of the Government during this war and it is a source ot
 satisfaction to everyone that the recent threatened strike dic not materialize.
 The employees are all seem. ingly we'll satisfied and wher the I. w. w. organizers came here, the property owners and business men immediately or ganized an association with g membership of practically ev- eryone of those classes in the district. The employees of the company, union and non-union immediately formed a loyalty league and gave notice to the I. w. w. that they were not . wanted and not to be tolerated A number of publics meetings were held and the stand was taken by everyone that, regard less of local conditions, or real , or fancied grievances, patriot.
 ism should rule this camp and
 no strike permitted until after
 the war.

BELIEVE FRAKER
FATALITIES NOT
FROM DIPHTHERIA
State Bacteriologist Examines Symp.
toms of Fraker Boy

The scare over diphtheria in Black
foot resulted from the deaths Of two
members of the A. B. Fraker family,
Vashti and Owen, whose affliction
was pronounced diphtheria. DR.. Sim
mons was the first physician called
to the cases, and he said the trouble
was an acute form of tonsilitis. All
of the children contracted the disease
and at the death of Owen Fraker,
diphtheria was named as the cause.
DIR. Simmons sent culture, or scrap
ings, from the throat of one Of the
children to the state bacteriologist,
DIR. e. e. Laubaugh, who has return
ed his report showing that no diph-
liberia bacilli were found, but only
the streptococci, which causes severe
sore throat. There was an epidemic
of this latter disease in the east two
years ago, and tho medicos decided
it was not contagious by short ex-
posure, but very infectious to people
living with the patient. From this
report DR.. Simmons believes that his
diagnosis was correct, and that the
two deaths were caused by strepto-
coccic sore throat, which the other
children contracted.

HIGH SCHOOL PROVES
LOW COST OF HOT SOUP

Superintendent w. D. Vincent
launched his hot lunch plan at the
high school this week, serving bowl
of hot soup and crackers to students
for three cents a helping. On the
first day 1876 of them took advantage
Of the soup to go with the cold
lunches they carry to school, and
from their enthusiastic patronage the
plan is already great success. The
cold lunch is not good for any one,
much less young people who get lit
tie exercise thru the day and have
early breakfast. The students them
selves do the serving, while two
ladies are engaged to make up the
stew, changing the kind every day
to give an appetizing variety. 1t
is a great luxury at the price, and
wifi be more than worth the effort
in increased efficiency in class work.
Sight Reading
The girls of the high school, to
show they are wide awake and am
bilious, have organized sight read
ing contest, to be held Friday even
ing, January 26. Three representa-
tives of each class will compete and
every one is invited to attend. The
judges have not yet been chosen.

ASSESSORS TO BE
CALLED INTO SESSION

Governor Alexander will issue q
proclamation conyenfng the assessors
OF this state in Boise the last Tues
day in January as announced in the
Capital News yesterday. The gover-
nor decided Saturday to call the as
SCISSORS together. Yesterday after
noon he took the matter up with the
state board of equalization, all mem
bers of which consented to the proc
lamation being issued. In fact the
meeting Of the board was called
specifically for that purpose.
During the discussion Of valuations
at the board meeting the governor
stated that in his opinion valuations
in Idaho should be increased by some
millions Of dollars as they are too
low. He is in favor of increasing
practically all classes of property ex-
cept dry farm lands. Better times
and better business in all lines of in
dustry we're cited by the governor
as grounds to warrant the increase.
He is in favor of increasing stocks
carried by merchants 35 per cent in
valuation; increasing sheep. valuation
and newspapers.

WILL REVERSE THE VIEW

In this issue OF The Republican
we are publishing some criticisms
and commendation of the ways of
merchants, and in q later edition we
will reverse the view and tell\what
the dealers think of the customers
ways of doing.
We will interview the dealers and
ask them to state briefly some of the
annoyances they have that might be
avoided If the customers saw 1t from
the other mans angle. No names
will be used and there will be
nothing personal about 1t. The edi-
tor will merely listen, assemble all
the matter and write up enough Of
1t to bring out some useful lessons
that will help bring this community
up to more modern and efficient
way of doing business. It is behind
the times, is in many ways handi-
cap to itself and needs to come to
a better understanding Of what are
the best ways to do things.

WHAT THE PEOPLE
THINK ABOUT WATER

AS the principal means of slak-
ing thirst and thereby sustaining life
the people think city water should
belong to them. They do not like
to think that such a necessary sup
ply as drinking water ought perma-
nently to be held by an individual
person or corporation. The council
wants to give the people a chance to
buy the water works of Mr.. Johnson
at reasonable price and he is will
ling to sell at reasonable price.
1t only remains to agree on what is
reasonable. Mr.. Johnson asks $82,-
900. He has stated that the system
nets profit of 5000 year. His
franchise extends to 1890.
A number representative business
men Of ,Blackfoot, (taxpayers) have
been interviewed by representative
of this paper. and with what meager
information they had been given on
the subject they were almost unani-
mously in favor of municipal owner
ship of water. Half of them thought
the price too high, inasmuch as
City Engineer James Young, estimat-
ed it would cost $4,000 to duplicate
the system now offered for sale. The
other half of these men took the
broad view that such a public utility
is worth more than its engines and
apparatus; that mans years of de-
velopment and service count for a
good deal. Most of them require
full information and an exhaustive
investigation Of the system. They
want to know just how much bonus
is asked and how much a new sys-
tenn would COST

CHARLIE THOMPSON NEARLY
VICTIM OF STOVE EXPLOSION

Lighting, his morning fire in the
brand new Majestic range at his
home Wednesday morning Charlie
Thompson, first deputy sheriff Of
Bingham county, came near being
blown into as many pieces as the
stove was. A frozen water jacket
caused the trouble. His right eye
was injured by flying cinders and
he is wearing a dressing over it, and
will probably have the use of it again
in a few days.
Mr.. Thompson said the fire had
no more than got warm, not at all
hot enough to boil water, when with
a crash the stove exploded and sent
parts of itself into the walls, thru
them and into furniture in the next
room. The stove was completely
wrecked, and it was lucky for him
that he was not in the path of the
pieces of iron.

COUNCIL HEARS
FIRST READING OF
WATER ORDINANCE
People VIII Decide About Purchase
Of Water System
PENNINGTON NEW MEMBER

At the regular meeting of the city
council Tuesday evening the buying
of the water system was the prin-
cipal question under discussion. The
ordinance which will put the bond
election up to the tax payers includes
an appropriation of $4,000 to be
spent in improving and extending the
present system if it goes into. the
hands of the city. The total amount
of the bonds is $125,OO0.
So many of the citizens have spok-
en- to councilmen in favor of NUM-
cipal ownership of the water works,
but at the same time considering 1t
a possible good alternative to put
in an independent system that the
discussion has circled good deal
about the amount of bonus asked by
Mr.. Johnson, whether it is a fair
remuneration for his labors of de-
velopment. In this connection K. s.
Weller, representing bonding house
in Denver, Colorado, who was pres
ent Tuesday evening, told the coun-
Gil that in his opinion the ability of
a town to compete with a public
utility without buying it out was a
doubtful matter. He said it has not
been discovered that any Idaho COM
munity has been allowed to install
an independent utility in face of one
already in the field.
It was said for the purchase that
many tax payers are anxious to bring
water ownership into the city's
hands, and that prospective investors
hold back because the present sys-
tenn Is not adequate and the manage
ment not in position to make it
much more efficient.
Pennington Appointed
Mayor Peck appointed Bert Pen
nington to the place of F. e. DeKay,
for ward four, who has
been made state prison warden and
moved to Boise. Mr.. Pennington is
one Of the promising young business
men of Blackfoot, who has lived here
most of his life, attended faithfully
to his work SO that he has won the
place of assistant cashier at the First
National bank, and one interested in
the advance of his town.
