A MUCH NEEDED IMPROVEMENT

There should be at least one
route between all towns with a
first class public highway. Emmett
and Payette are the two largest
towns in the Payette Valley and
there rs much travel required be-
tween the two towns. 1t lis also
the most convenient route from
this part of the country to the Pay
cite Lakes, Long Valley and Cascade,
and yet almost one half OF the dist
ance between Payette and Emmett
is almost impassable. There are two
routes and no matter which fone
you take, you wish you had taken
the other. This stretch OF road is in
both Payettr and Gem County, and
there Is worlds of the very best
kind Of material for making good
roads near Vat hand. Why can't 1t bel

CHAIRMAN TAYLOR RESIGNS.
Boise. Idaho, Oct. 2

Boise, Idaho, Oct. 2.
Enterprise, Payette, Idaho.
S. D. Taylor, Chairman Of the Re-
publican State Committee, has wir-
ed his resignation to Headquarters &C
cording to announcement made there
today. Mr.. Taylor has been out of
the city for some time and it is said
he will not return for several weeks.
No further statement is made, but
political gossip connects the resigna-
ton with the administration by Chair
man Taylor that he signed Former
Governor Goodings name to a letter
stating Mr.. Gooding would accept the
Non-Partisan League endorsement for
Senator if it came in the proper
spirit although not soliciting it. When
the Non-Partisan League leaders as
part of their fight ON Mr.. Gooding
made public the letter, Mr.. Cooling
promptly pronounced it a forgery.
Chairman Taylor was in north Idaho
then, enroute to Boise, and when
he returned he said he had taken
the liberty to sign Mr.. Gooding's
name to the letter, feeling he was
justified in view of the then prob
that the League would in
dorse the Republican platform and
straight Republicans.

dened Monday to learn of the sud

Branthoover, on his ranch east OF
F'ruitland.

in Payette, August 20, 1892 and
passed away at noon September 30,
1918, his death following an opera
ton for tonsilitus.
June 4th, 1915, in Caldwell he was
married to Miss Cozy Phillips, daugh-
ter of Mrs. NJ. B. Sherman. A little
daughter, EIunice, now two years

last three years when the home
was in Boise and Barber, Free had
spent his whole life in Payette and
on the ranch near Fruitland where

F'ruitland and took an active part IN
the choir and Sunday School work.
He and his little family only ten days

charge and the community was glad
that they had come.

ian people are now in Copenhagen
appealing to the American, British
and French missions here for help.
Describing the situation to the cor
respondent today, one of the dele
gates said the Germans had decided
to evacuate all the territory named
in the Brest-Litovsk treaty, includ-
ing the districts of Desna and
Minsk and portion of Mohilev. The
inhabitants of these districts, he
said, were unarmed and unorganized
and had no means for preventing
murder or pillage. The people asked
that the evacuated territory be ac-
cupied by American, French or Brit
