YOU CAN CROSS
THE WEST BRIDGE
Road Between City Linn
it's and Bridge Will
Be Finished Soon
HARD SURFACE

Travel via Snake river bridge west
OF Blackfoot is continued. They are
still working on the approaches, but
1t allows travel to pass.
Road Superintendent w. C. Stone
took vacation Friday, Saturday and
Sunday and was on the job again
Monday morning.
The grading is reported practically
finished from the city limits to the
bridge, and ready for the hard coat
whenever decision is reached as to
what is going to be put on and when.
a remonstrance is being prepared to
present to the city council this Tues
day evening asking them to sit back
and not do any paving this year. If
they heed the people who are making
this request, it means that the county
will not pave their part of the road
to the bridge, and there will be the
usual wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Last winter representative west
side farmer said that if the county
bond election carried, and they did
not give him anything for his share,
but smooth, hard road from Snake
river bridge into town he would be
satisfied. But he is getting infinitely
more than that across the bridge,
tho the town may decide to refuse
him the particular thing wrich he
and 5000 others over there are ex-
pecting and demanding.

BAND INSTRUMENTS
TO BE SUBSCRIBED
Commercial Club Governors Endorse
Movement to Raise Money
For Instruments
BAND IS NOW A SURE THING

The board of governors of the
Blackfoot commercial club gave its
endorsement at the Monday noon
luncheon meeting to the enterprise of
L. N. Harmon, Jr., in organizing a
band of young folks for Blackfoot.
-. Kinney was named by Presi-
dent F. E. Seeger as finance chair
man to work with Mr.. Harmon in
raising by popular subscription the
sum Of 5000 for the larger instru-
ments, which shall become the prop
ertry of the commercial club and be
as a loan to the players.
Mr.. Harmon appeared at the lunch
con meeting and described the de-
tails of his work. He told the mem :
bers he had already signed up
twenty-four members for the band,
and had in prospect enough more to
make a total number of forty. In
struments have been ordered and re-
hearsals will start upon their arrival.
A good deal of interest has been
shown in this new juvenile band. It
il conceded to be the only wav to
provide permanent band for town
the size of Blackfoot. 1t ,nsdres
the presence for many years among
the members Of the comm ani;y of
trained instrunlentalists, so that the
work Of leadership could be carried
on by any qualified musician d ring
the years to come. Associated with
Ny. Harmon is Ronald Robbins, we'll
known Blackfoot musician, a violin
let and teacher of ability.

COPIES OF LEAGUE
COVENANT FOR ALL
Treaty Will be in Fact an Open
\ Covenant Openly Arrived at;
Secret Diplomacy Ended
A COPY BY WRITING SENATOR

The Republicans >of the senate are
determined that every opportunity
shall be provided for informing the
people as to the terms of the treaty
and the league covenant that it con-
tains. To that end Senator Lodge
intends to have printed $4,000 copies
OF the English text of the treaty,
10000 for the use Of the house OF
representatives and 10000 for the
use OF the senate. Doubtless they
will be available for distribution in
the very near future. Anybody who
cares to possess copy can get one
by writing to his senator OF congress
man. If the first edition fails to
meet the demand; more copies will
be printed.
From this time on the treaty will
be in fact an open covenant openly
arrived at. From now secret diplC-
macy is at an end, and the people
will be apprised of every step that is
taken by the senate in considering
and passing upon the treaty. The
Republicans have ordered the gal
lariees of the senate chamber thrown
open every day to the public, and
representatives from the press will be
present to report every word that is
spoken and every note that is re-
corded. with a copy of the treaty
before him land with his eye on the
days proceedings as set forth in his
newspaper or the Congressional
Record, any citizen can inform him
self of everything that transpires.

RESERVOIR MEETING
HERE WEDNESDAY
Representatives Of Canals Requested
to Meet and Book Purchase Of
Stored Water in Reservoirs
CALLS FOR PROMPT ACTION

D. H. Blossom of the reservoir
committee for Bingham county has
sent out notices to canal companies
to- send representatives to meeting
to be held Wednesday at 10 o'clock
at the court room at Blackfoot for
the purpose of booking their pur-
chases Of stored water in the
proposed reservoirs. Prompt act
ion is required. The full
committee will meet at Idaho
Falls on Friday morning at 10
o'clock to turn in their reports and
arrange for the next step.
These meeting are not so much for
the purpose of talking things over as
for signing up and binding canal
companies to do the part they under
take to do to acquire water by stor-
age. Quick decision, prompt action
and the beginning of operations is
what the committee have in mind.
Those that delay will be lef. out like
the foolish virgins and borrowing
oil" after the reservoir is built will
probably be difficult matter. Fill
your lamps, trim them properly and
get ready to 60 in with the procession
and sit down at the feast with the
bride and bridegroom.

HISTORIC FREIGHT
WAGON FOR CITY
Quaint Vehicle, Relic of
Early Days Now
Adorns City Park
MR.. POWELL DONOR

The city is indebted to G.. A.
Powell for a historic piece of out
door furniture that dates from the
earliest days in this western country
1t is heavy freight wagon made in
Nevada and shipped to Blackfoot in
1878. 1t has been in the Powell
family most of the time since, and it
was at, the Powell ranch a few weeks
ago that Mayor Thorstenberg noticed
the old time vehicle standing forlorn
and forgotten, remnant of the
pioneering age, and suggested that
as a gift to the city it would make
splendid decoration for the city
park.
Mr.. Powell Immediately fell in
with the idea, and had it sent down
and presented to the city. 1t now
stands in the park, the first piece,
possibly of historic collection of
old time relics.
This wagon is high, wide and
heavy. 1t seems to modern eyes,
built upon some mastodonic plan for
super-horses to draw. 1t was, in
fact, drawn by string of twenty
husky mules, and it carried along a
trailer or two. It's back wheels
stand two yards high, and the tires
are four inches wide. The axle is
iron, between three and four inches
in diameter. The box and cover
have gone, but the giant frame in
itself makes a sufficiently impressive
picture.
The big vehicle was used in
freighting line between here and
Challis in early days. Compared
with the high and massive two
wheeled carts used in France today
this piece of work is quite up-to-date.
1t has more the weight and proper
tions Of moto rtruck than anything
in the way of wagons that we see
today.

ROUNDUP AND
HOMECOMING
Proposed Celebration for
the Week of September
Ten to Thirteen
M MASS MEETING

A big roundup and soldiers and
sailors homecoming week for Sep
tember 10, IL, IL and 13 with every
night street dancing, and carnival
with all attractions, has been en-
! dOrsed by the board Of governors of
the Blackfoot commercial club, and
the proposition will be laid before Q
general meeting of business men
Wednesday evening at s o'clock at
the court house.
The stock show and roundup was
suggested by Bert Coumerilh and
Ralph Dixie and will be managed by
w. C.. Everham, rider and round
up man of long standing.
In conjunction with the roundup
will be homecoming celebration
given by the City of Blackfoot to re-
turned soldiers and sailors. One Of
the events proposed is barbecue.
The offer of two fat steers for roast
ing has been supplemented by the
suggestion that the City furnish
watermelons to wash the beef down
with, free to the public.
1t is the intention of the board of
governors that the two features,
roundup and homecoming celebra-
tion separate, one to be handled by
the stock men and the other by the
city. The two will co-openate in ad-
vertising and in securing carnival
attractions. The city will be expected
to furnish grounds for the roundup
and the purpose of the mass meeting
will be to get large number of busi-
ness men behind the move and in
sure its big success.
Mr. Everhan, with the help Of Mr..
Coumerilh, will be able to secure
professional and amateur riders,
horses and steers for roping contests.
They are already assured of a purse
to $500 for prize money
and expenses.
Ralph Dixie will be instrumental
in furnishing Indian riders, and
horses and possibly a parade of
braves in war dress.

BINCHAM'S CHANCE
FOR DEVELOPMENT
Commercial Club Plan
ming a Booklet About
County's Resources
CROP EXHIBITION

The Blackfoot commercial club ha.
received request from the immigra
tion department of the Union Pacifi,
railroad Office at Omaha for agri
cultural products to be displayed te
homeseekers.
The commercial club is planning
to comply with this request and
farmers and business men will prob.
ably be levied upon for the material
to make 1t possible. We will have to
60 out and gather in the products
from the fields and pack them accord
ing to instructions ,and it is a slow.
tedious task. It will be necessary
to spend some money to pay the
wages of the men who do the work
and the expense of materials used
in packing and for the shipment.
The Union Pacific will spend con-
siderable money in placing the ex-
hibition where 1t will be permanent
and In supplying the information to
homeseekers as they go there to get
information. The same department
OF the Union Pacific also asks for
literature showing something of the
resources of this county. 1t has been
six years since anything of the kind
was printed and that supply was ex-
hausted long ago.
Leaders in the commercial club
declare their intentions of asking the
county commissioners to appropriate
some money to defray the expense of
preparing and printing booklets that
will fill this need.
The state commissioner of immi-
grafton says he has no means of
answering the inquiries that come
to him regarding this part of the
state and there is such volume of
letters that he can not answer them
individually. If he had booklets that
could be sent in answer to such in
quiries 1t would be valuable SER
vice. The real estate men in this
county are in the same predicament
They receive requests for general in
formation and have no means by
which to answer the letters.
1t is likely that a meeting will be
called in the near future to discuss
these matters and plan for the dis
posal of them. 1t is urged by many
men that at this time, when the west
ern states are suffering from drouth
and many people are obliged to seek
new locations, large valley like the
upper Snake river valley, witlr-a very
good supply of water, even in this
year Of general shortage, should
hasten to advertise the fact that it's
crops are as good as they are and
that it is due to an unusually good
water supply.
Men travelling in all directions
from eastern Idaho declare that crop
losses are worse in every direction.
than they are here. This affords us
an unusual opportunity to attract |
homeseekers and investors.

BUYING WATERED STOCK

At meeting of the Corbett Slough
and Blackfoot Irrigation companies
at the City Hall Saturday afternoon
there was only small attendance,
but they were all in favor of instruct
ing the directors to go ahead and
buy rights in the proposed new res
ervoirs to provide for a continuous
flow in the canal for thirty days at
low water periods.

Outdoor Dance Put
Inside Out of Rain

The war veterans outdoor dance
was put off the boards Saturday evel-
ing by most inopportune shower,
so the boys Immediately planned to
move in. They secured from o.
Buchanan the use of Progress hall
and held the dance there, entertain
ing a packed floor of dancers. The
music of Robbins and Barrer was so
good that even the Old-timers Of
dance-dom complimented them. The
veterans cleared comfortable sum
of money for their depleted treasury.

TELEGRAM ABOUT HAY

Farley Price had occasion to in
quire of a Caldwell firm about the
quantity and price of hay there, and
received a wire Saturday afternoon
from M M .Mackey, saying there was
5000 tons in that locality that could
be bought at from SIG to SIS ton,
allowing 512 feet, and measurement
to be made the first of November.
Mr.. Price had already bought $50
tons for his own stock near Albion
at SIS a ton. same measurement.

Army Veterans Get
Good Carnival Returns

The Browns Amusement company,
which came to Blackfoot under the
auspices of the associated ex-soldiers,
sailors and marines of Blackfoot and
Bingham county, finished it's five
days show Saturday night and made
final settlement with the home COM
mittee. Approximately $4,000 was
received by the veterans as their
percentage. They furnished ticket
takers for the shows, and secured
the site and the electric lights.

PUBLIC STUDYING AND USING
THE DIRECTORY AS PUBLISHED
Some New Facts About Doctors, Dentists and
Lawyers and How They are Hamp-
cred. Big Fellows Rule
THINGS OF INTEREST IN OUR COMMUNITY

some place in which to list them
Many people mail their papers to
friends in other states after reading
them, and they are often examined
by persons looking for business open
ings. This directory shows pretty
nearly what is already supplied in
the county.
Looking for Business Openings
Many requests come by letter to
the post master asking for delivery
of the letter to some newspaper, and
when opened, the letter asks for q
copy or copies of the paper or pa oers
of the town. A few months ago some
woman in Ohio, who probably re-
ceived papers in some such way, got
the idea that there was no millinery
store in Blackfoot, and hastened to
come to Idaho to supply something
which the papers did not indicate
was here. When she arrived and
found two millinery stores and NO ap-
parent need for any more, she had
spent considerable money for the
information.
Prejudice Disappearing
There used to be considerable pre-
judice against advertising in every
form; but it is rapidly disappearing
The public no longer care for news
PAPER that does not carry advertis-
ing, and it has become impractical
to supply such paper. Many people
plan their business partly thru ad-
vertisements Of firms they know. 1t
saves them time and money, and the
salesmen in store can wait on more
people per day if they have read the
advertisements and come in prepared
to tell what they want.
For this and many other reasons,
the merchant who advertises can sell
advertised goods at less expense than
the unadvertised goods. If none of
the dealers advertised, the public
would not know sjust when the
change of seasons goods were placed
on sale, they would lose time going
the rounds to see about it, and would
drop back to the old wearysome way
of going to all the stores and bother

Check Was Good

Jack Ryan was freed Saturday,
after having proved that he had suf-
ficient cash in the bank at the time
he wrote a check on the Standrod
bank to H B. Bruggenkemp, enough
to cover the check. He had after
wards drawn the money and gone
to Utah. He made the check good
and paid the sheriffs expenses for
the trip to Utah to arrest him.

About hundred firms in Bingham
county are cooperating to place q
business directory before the public
that is nearly complete. 1t will be
published in this paper for q year,
twice each month, at the expense Of
the publisher and those represented
in the list, and we will print and re-
print information of general interest
covering matters not provided for in
the cards themselves. Such state
ment was given with its introduction
the last issue in July, but today's
issue is headed with special informa-
tion regarding the local Indians. A
series Of such pictures, with infor-
nation such as has never before been
given to the public here, will be pre-
sented in connection with the di-
rectory. A section of this kind ap-
pears on page two, and is continued
and page three because of it's popu-
larity and growth after the first ap-
pearance, it could not be printed in
one page as first designed. Business
houses from Shelley to Aberdeen
showed their appreciation by engag-
'ng space for the year, and as The
Republican follows the policy of de-
livering something better than is
promised, they all have some pleas
ant surprises ahead.
The Public Approves
This plan of handling a directory
and keeping the public informed of
the goods and service furnished by
local firms, is meeting with the
hearty approval of the public, as
shown by the marks of appreciation
already expressed. The plan does
not contemplate printing it in every
issue and thus taking up needless
of space and getting people
tired of seeing it, but it is in con-
venient form to cut out and hang up
or paste up for reference, and every |
two weeks new one will arrive with
such changes or additions as the time
may reveal
