Rancher Gassed in France


L. L. Cock of the 37th engineers,
after seem gservice on just about
every American sector in France,
and also serving with the British and
Belgians, returned to BlackfoOt Mon
day morning and will continue his
ranch work at his place near the
Blackfoot Marsh dam. He will take
short trip to Burley this week, be-
fore going to the ranch.
Mr.. Cock was in France nearly
eleven months, and he said that
when his transport locked at New
port News, U. S. A. it was the hap
piest moment of his life. Most of
the time his unit was attached to
the 26th division. He was gassed in
a German cloud attack with chlorine
and is all but minus his voice.
Rather Dig Wells
Edward T. Johnson of the @. M.
corps, cooks and bakers school, Camp
Lewis, returned Tuesday. He was
at Lewis eighteen months and thinks
that is long enough and to spare.
Before the war Johnson was an
expert we'll digger on the desert and
all around, and, partner of R. P.
Cope at Pingree. He is going back
to the same old job and glad to 60
back. The machinery is all there
at Pingree, and the two partners ex-
pect to get busy at once and help
mOisten the desert. To Johnson, at
least, it seems much better to live
in dry country and dig for water
when you want it, than live on the
coast where there is water in the air
all the time.
On South Atlantic Patrol
Cpl. John Ziegler, son of John D.
Ziegler of Sterling, formerly pro-
prietor of the Commercial Hotel,
came home Tuesday from a sixteen
months cruise in the south Atlantic.
He was dressed in the snappy marine
corps blue uniform, looking taller,
bigger and stronger than when he
went away to Mare island, almost
two years ago.
Young Ziegler enlisted in the ma
rine corps the twenty-siXth of May,
1917, went to Mare Island and was
later stationed for three months at
San Diego, where he was finally as
signed to duty on the U. S. S. Gin
cinnatti. In the service he showed
readiness to learn, won the, sharp
shooters badge and qualified as a
machine gunner on the side. He was
made first class gun pointer on

they did roll it up and paste the edge
with wax, and they did heat the wax
and old Rameses approached it and
did press the signet of his ring into
the hot wax 80 the banker would
know it was really from Rameses
and none other and that by no man s
lips might he be deceived. Then
they started it across the sea in a
swift galley rowed thither by galley
slaves whose lives and comfort were
not worth pinch of snuff to an
anti-saloon orator, and it was de-
livered before the end of the sum-
mer. The payment of the precious
money on the road bonds or what
ever it was, was stopped, enjoined,
delayed, deleted and whatever else
you can think of.
Starting Panic
Money was tight. The contractors
who had been arranging prelimin-
aries to their spring work, engaging
to buy spuds at the cellar, carrots at
the pit and alfalfa in the stack, pork
on foot and beef by the herd, if they
had been modern ginks would have
rung up 2S0J3 and said, as this
Mr.. Fackrell? This is MaGuire.
Say; those fellows down there failed
to put the seal on the official oath
when they made out their election
report for their precinct, and that

mon. Tell Mr.. Turpin hope to have

morning, and I will yet be able to

him and tell all your people the

RISE"
Sent for a Writer
But they didn't do it that way.
They sent swift runner to a dis
tant city for a couple of scribes, and
at the end of three weeks one scribe
arrived and reported that the other
one was dead and had been buried
for two years. The living scribe had
to rest from his journey for a couple
of days and then he got busy on a
sixty-day job penning a scroll to the
owner of q feet of Egyptian wheat
ships not to hold the fleet any longer
to carry that wheat, as the road
work was temporarily delayed for a
couple of years at least, till they
could send back and have the cleo
ton done over again and the seal
put on the oath when the report was
made.
Can Beat it in Bingham
There is such q mixture Of up
to-date fellows in Bingham county,
and other fellows here and there who
date back to the methods of old
Rameses, that it is really amusing
to see the inequalities that are
brought out by road bond cam
paign. A road bond campaign seems
great deal of trouble for a disciple
Of Rameses, and waiting five months
for a letter or couple Of years for
shipment Of wheat, does not SER
iously interrupt their plans. But
there are times when a delay Of five
months would be serious.
eE Saved Collision With Taft
When President Taft's special
train came thru Blackfoot a few
years ago, telegraph operator made
mistake and nearly caused q COL
lision by putting another train in
the way. Somebody discovered the
mistake and got the freight train
out Of the way several minutes be-
fore the special swept by. A delay

Program and Debate at Lavaside
School
Last Friday evening over 100
people were present at a program
and debate given by the school and
community. The program began at
9 O'Clock and continued until 1915.
One of the special features of the
program was an organ solo give by
Miss Ruth Sundquist. After the
program came the debate on whether
Bingham county should spend $780,
600 on good roads. Eric Sundquist
and Elmer McGinnis represented the
affirmative side, while Oscar Fraker
and George Allen talked on the mega
tive side. After the report of the
judges, Carl Nelson, l. j. Larson and
Frank McCauley, had been examined,
it was found that the affirmative
had won. OF course, those repre-
senting the negative side were in
favor Of good roads, but talked
against them just to have opposition.
II some pessimists, who are against
bonding Bingham county had been
present, they would have been con-
WINGED that good roads are an asset
to any community. Refreshments
were served at late hour. An Of
fering Of over $500 was obtained
which went toward paying for the
organ and some lights for the school
house. Everyone enjoyed the even
ing immensely.
