MEXICAN SHOT
ON HIGHWAY
Found in Road Near
Factory in Serious
Condition
w OUNDS FATAL

Lucio Pierz, a Mexican employed
by the railroad was found in the
highway opposite the Musseter place
near the factory shortly after 6:15
Wednesday evening. He had two
bullet holes in his body, one in the
neck and another in the abdomen.
He was picked up by Merlin F..
Wright and party motoring toward
Idaho Falls, brought to Blackfoot
and sent to Pocatello on the evening
train for medical attention, at the
railroad hospital. An examination
of his wounds was made by Drs.
Davis and Mitchell, who declared his
recovery doubtful. He died Friday
night as a result of his wounds.
Pierz was able only to say that his
assailants were heavyset men,. wear
ing dark overcoats and hats, and
that they spoke American. He said
they asked him for match, then
fired at him three times. One shot
missed him. He ascribes no reason
why anybody should attack him and
had no idea of who his would-be
murderers were.
Mr.. Parsons, who was at the
freight station heard the three shots
and then saw four Mexicans coming
away from it toward Blackfoot, soon
followed by two Americans. He re-
membered that two Of the Mexicans
wore dark overcoats and were heavy
set. But the Americans, as he re-
membered, were tall and had light
OvercOats.
Somebody in the crowd said to
Parsons that a Mexican had been
shot. They all kept going and were
soon out of sight.

APPEAL BY
DECEPTION
Moral Support N O t
Given to Coal Strike
by Labor Federation
MINERS JUSTIFIED

Washington. - The Republican
Publicity Association, through it's
president, Hon. Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., recently gave out the following
statement, from it's Washington
headquarters:
There never has been any doubt
in discerning minds that the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor was giving
the coal strike it's moral support.
1t is now admitted and proclaimed
by the Federation itself in a state
ment prepared with great care dur
ing an all-day session of its execu-
tive council. BY all the facts in the
case, reads the document, the mi
ners' strike is Justified. - We in
dorse it. We are convinced of the
justice of the miners cause. We
pledge the miners the full support
of the American Federation of La
bor***.'
From start to finish the state
ment of the Federation is full Of
misleading assertions, replete with
misstatements Of fact, and glaring
in its omissions of other facts-all
for the very apparent purpose of
checking the tide of public opinion
that has set so strongly against the
striking miners. After setting forth
the hardships and privations of the
life of miner and the need for. bet
ter pay to. meet those conditions, the
statement undertakes to give the
history of the events that led up to
the strike. In order to catch the
public ear the assertion is made that
the officers of the United Mine
Workers have had the power since
the September convention in Cleve-
land to negotiate an agreement
with the operators, but that the en-
ployers refused to enter into nego-
tiations. The simple truth is that

quaint city of Peking (where some
one said all the men of China would
be if the women were all in Shang-

very morning through the populous
and fertile province of Shantung of
which we hear SO much these days.
We knew something had occurred
but nothing definite could be learned
before that early train to Tientsin
where we boarded the Tientsin- Pu-
kow road for Nanking country. All
we could make out was that the
other nations were jubilating, for the
Belgian, the French and other en-
bassies were stringing bunting and
flags galore all over the facades of
their legations.
All that wearisome, questioning

that monotonous way toward the
heart Of the Hoang-ho plains till late
at night when we reached the city of
Tai-an-fu receiving our introduction
to the noisiest vehicle that ever was

cost $4,295.35. Metal culverts to
date have cost $11,762.69, and there
is one carload not yet paid for and
not on the books. The amount OF
money spent for grading, culverts,

Mr.. Stone was present and when
asked for statement as to what we
have to show for this $177,214.5S

Statement of Conditions
Commencing at the Power county

contract of Charlie Stone, 61a miles

accepted SO far as his contract is
concerned but that does not include
culverts and bridges. These are

Jlassen, all accepted. The culverts

done on the first two miles. Bridge
work down there has been held up
pending the delivery of gravel to use
in the cement work. The gravel was
to be shipped from the loading sta
tion long ago completed at Moreland.
AS stated some weeks ago, the old
freight rate of 80 cents was in effect
till the End day of November and
then a rate of so cents went into
effect. We were not informed of
the SO cent rate till we got the plant
ready to operate and then we de-
cided to wait rather than pay the
higher rate. AS the railroad men
say, She rate was. fifty cents but
nothing doing till the rate is pub

McKaig- -Gooding
Trial Completed

trial of the libal case of Ray
McKaig against F. r. Gooding has
just been completed at Boise. 1t was
expected to be submitted to the jury
on Monday evening or Tuesday, to-
day. McKaig sued Gooding and the
Boise Statesman for $4,000 dam
age for saying in an advertisement
signed by Gooding, that McKaig was
the associate of a number of non
partisan league organizers who were
Socialists and I. w. WIS and against
the government, and that he was
"hand in glove" with the notorious
te Richard O'Hare, who is serving
term in the federal prison for dis
loyalty.
The case occupied the attention of
the district court at Boise for
twelve days up to Saturday night.

Scotty Decided
To Chance II

w. H. Scott was in from Pingree
Saturday and said he had come in
several times lately to have a chiro-
practor take. a try at his rheumatism.
He said he had read about the ex-
perience Of others and concluded he
would take chance tho he did not
believe in the theory.
If we should publish what Scotty
said about results some people would
say we were knocking the chiroprac-
tors business or boosting it and CIV
ing free advertising, SO we guess you
had better ring Scotty to find out
how his "rumatticks" are behaving.

New Invention.
in Blackfoot
A Marker at the Laundry Will Take
Care Of Identifying Clothes
With Speed and Efficiency
MORE TRUSTY THAN A HUMAN

An identifier is the newest inven-
tion installed and working in Black
foot. Do you want to know who
you belong to or house property
you are? Go thru the identifier
A few years ago there was popu-
lar show Whose Baby Are You?''
and 1t had great run. This new
mechanical identifier is likely to
have as great run. 1t made its
initial run in the Gem State laundry
the last of the week and it identi-
fled clothes and linens that had been
slipping thru the homes of others
than their owners, and all that kind
OF stuff is billed to stop now.
This new machine is designed to
take a place in any laundry and
touch each piece of goods as it comes
in. 1t leaves it's mark absolutely
alike on all the pieces arriving from
one owner, and there is no chance
for 1t to make the wrong mark. as
a person may do.
Manager Davis has had great
deal of trouble to keep marker
girl or man who would absolutely
keep the mind on the work in hand
and not get marks wrong. When
losses and shortage claims came
thick and fast Mr.. Davis would some-
times lose his marker and take that
place himself. While he was mark
ing somebody's clothes you might
ring up and ask that Mr.. Davis come
to the phone. When interrupted in
this way few times he might mark
pieces wrong and steer them where
they did not belong. No matter how
he arranged it, there were mistakes
and it embarrassed the laundry and
the customers.
The new machine costs $41O, and
saves something like three hours
day with the present run of busi-
ness. If your clothes get delivered
earlier Saturday than usual, it was
because of the identifier. If you
got all of your own pieces and none
of your neighbors it was because of
the. identifier being on the job.
This is not an advertisement. We
just told you this string of news out
of the goodness of our editorial heart
because we knew you would be glad
to know that some of your troubles
and those of the laundryman are at
an end. Thank you.

November is the month when field
work and road work may be expected
to come to an end by reason of the
frost, and Thanksgiving is generally
close to the date. Much has been
said by this paper about hauling
gravel all winter for surfacing the
roads, but Superintendent Stone who
is in charge of construction work
here says he believes winter con-
struction of any kind here after the
first of December will be more ex-
pensive. He says he will keep oper-
ating as long as the commissioners
want him to, but he doesn't want
to spend any of our good money
bucking the frost. Mr.. Stone thinks
we can work profitably only so long
as the clay filler can be handled and
rolled in with the gravel to make
hard surface. He does not think
it would be profitable to be hauling
gravel and letting it lie on the sur
face till spring and then have lot
of it more or less displaced to roll
into the ground with the opening Of
spring. There are disadvantages
about it that will in his opinion off
set the advantage of having winter
employment.

He works all day and most of the

him for information about the cost
of anything connected with bond
roads he has turned to it in the book
and helped us figure it out. On the
occasion of our last probing we asked
for the totals of money spent for ma
chinery and after a few licks on the
calculating machine while he bent
over the ledger he said the machin-
