HERE is YOUR CHANCE
TO PRACTICE

Anent the recent loss of county
funds, involving a loss of twenty
thousand dollars of public money
that is likely to be paid back, it is in
poor taste for people to go from one
extreme to another and be circulat-
ing false alarms and damaging re-
ports about anyone responsible for
the disturbance.
If you have implicit confidence in
a man today and you find tomorrow
that it was a misplaced confidence,
be careful about believing stories
that tend to make you lose all con-
fidence. Be careful not to start any,
thing you are not absolutely sure Of,
and not to be circurating stuff that
you cannot vouch for. 1t is better
to keep such things to yourself for a
while than to be adding to the tur-
moil and broken faith.
Another timely thing to be do
ing is not to be mixing names and
losing confidence in the wrong per-
sons. If you lose confidence in some
body named Smith, it is not neces-
sary for you feel disturbed about all
the Smiths in the world. Try to be
fair about these things. Try to be
just. Try not to go to extremes, and
until you learn all about it, just
keep sweet and have the patience to
wait.

rhine to Boise basin in the eeArly
days of placer mining there.
Thru all the ups and downs OF
his life he has always made friends
by reason of his courage, integrity
and loyalty to duty. He is the
author of Hailey's History OF Idaho
which was published about six years
ago. !
The last time the writer saw him
we had only few moments together
and he gave very interesting state
ment of how the Creator provided
for all of us in the beginning. A
few remarks had been passed about
the war and the attempt Of autocracy
to monopolize the natural resources
of the earth and the natural rights
of the people when Mr.. HALEY said:
when God made the earth and pre-
pared habitation for man he placed
great deal more wealth at our SER
vice than people usually suppose
Here are some things that l have
thought of in recent years and which
Fl had not thought a great deal about
in nay younger days. The oceans
are provided with enough salt to
preserve the water and keep it from
going stale; they are stored with
myraids of fish constituting a very
fine food for man. All the different
kinds of fish were created that might
please the palate of different individ-
uals and in different seasons. The
rivers and fresh-water lakes were
abundently stored with still other
kinds of fish suitable for fresh water
and for use as food. The air was
stocked with fowl suitable for food;
some of them to live on the land en-
tirely; some to live partly in the air
and partly on the land and some to
live partly on the waters. Lest there
might be lot of waste material to
decay and be disagreeable to us,
scavengers were created to inhabit
the seas and fresh waters and to go
about on the land and eat up the
remnents of the fish and fowls that
die or that get illed and are not
consumed before the flesh spOils.
The soil was prepared for the pro.
duction of an finite variety of plants
and vegetables some of which are
suitable for food for man and some
suitable for food for beasts which
are the servants and the food for
man. An infiite variety of birds was
created; some to sing songs for us
and some to entertain us with their
beauty and some for both. In order
that all the birds and fowls might
be we'll fed, many kinds of insects
were created to feed upon the lower
forms of vegetable and animal life
and become delicious food for the
birds that | have mentioned. Honey
bees were created to gather sweets
and store them so that man might
receive the benefit, and lest the birds
should not sing at all times that we
wish for music the materials were
made suitable for us to build musical
instruments in as many varieties as
we might wish to make. The earth
was stored with minerals and fuel,
both in the ground and on top Of it
and in all the different forms they

the Republican ticket. He has been
travelling over the state getting ac-
quainted with the people and the
public institutions, and qualifying
himself for the position. We will
tell you more about him later.
James Christensen of Jameston,

county commissioner in the third

WHY NOT APPLY 1T
TO BLACKFOOT

The people in the Blackfoot
country all seem agreed that the
strip of road from west Bridge street
to Snake river bridge, where
the heavy traffic is found all
year, has never been good
road and never will be until some
thing is done to it.
Whenever the question is probed
as to what shall be done there is
always disagreement as to the best
thing to do or as to how the money
shall be raised to carry on the con-
struction work.
Perhaps the suggestion offered by
Mark Austin would be good solu-
ton of it and it could be done at
winter time when we should never
miss the labor. Such course was
taken at Rexburg and in that in
stance it made very durable road.
What they did was to haul gravel in
the winter time and spread a coat
of it on the street, leaving it to
sink in and be tramped in by the
spring thaw and the spring traffic.
The result was such a good road
that when they tore some of it out
recently to lay Macadam the con-
tractor found it impossible to pillow it
and had to put on gang with sharp
picks. He said it kept a blacksmith
busy sharpening picks all the while.
If the people Of the Blackfoot
country would only get a good string
of teams to work next winter haul
ing gravel on this piece of road in
question the spring thaw and spring
traffic might do the rest and we
would have durable road for many
years.
If this is to be done the commits
sioners should get the road in pro-
per shape this fall so it would be
ready for the spring tramping.
This enterprise would not in any
way effect the war or would not pre-
vent the winning of the war. 1t
would provide a road that heavy
traffic could operate on at less ex-
pense as soon as 1t was packed and
anything that reduces the expense
Of travel and transportation COM
mercially will help win the war and
help pay the war debts after the
fighting is over.

@. E. Arney
Charles E. Arney came to Idaho
in about the year 1886 and was the
principal of the Idaho Falls schools,
the same being conducted in little
three-room building at that time.
Mr.. Arney remained at Idaho Falls
for several years and married Miss
Grace jerks, who was also resident
of that place.
The Arneys began housekeeping
with very little capital and Mr.. Arney
met with some reverses in business
that cut off his income. They had
long hard pull with poverty star
ing them in the face and they won
the admiration of all observing
friends by facing the situation
squarely and living within their
means.
For the past several years Mr.
Arney has been at the head of the
immigration department for the
Northern Pacific railroad company
with an office at Spokane, Wash
His rise from the humble position
at Idaho Falls has been markerd by
experience in politics as private sec.
rotary to Senator Dubois, as editor
of the Salt Lake Tribune and various
other activities requiring a bright
mind and hard work.
For quarter of a century Mr.
Arney has been familiar figure al
the state conventions and other big
meetings of Idaho men. He car
meet more men and call them by
name than almost any other man in
the state and his acquaintance in
Wyoming, Utah, Montana, Washing
ton and Oregon are extensive. He
is still young in appearance, robust
and rosy checked and always has a
smile for his acquaintances.

LY TWO CITIZENS OFFER SERVICES

Candidates for public office at our
shop are as scarse as hens legs. Up
to date we have been authorized to
announce only two men for office
one for governor, and one for county
commissioner. These two gentlemen
have shown their appreciation OF
printers ink and the efficiency of our
newspaper by authorizing us to in
sert their campaign cards to keep
the fact before the public until the
time of the voting at the primaries.
A man who courageously sets
forth the fact that he is candidate,
and has the chief newspaper of the.
county carry the name and address
to the people each week for the rest
of the campaign shows people at one
stroke that he is no piker, for such
advertising costs him money and
saves his time. 1t also saves him
the trouble of having it painted on
anybody's barn door and handed
around on cards and tan bark all
over the county at much expense and
trouble to himself. In this way he
also lets people know that he be-
lieves in patronizing the newspaper
that challenges everybody to get in
line and help make Bingham county
the best-governed county in the
state; for 10 and behold, every one
that advertises iD our paper gives
us more power to work for good gov
eminent, for nobody denies that we
make 'em, pay when they advertise
with us. Selah!

 It will be of interest to note the care with which the Juniors have prepared this layette, and to note the practical nature of the articles provided.
