 A man who thinks that he can hum- iliate and insult a woman because she writes stuff, the purport of which does not agree with his mode of life, and who thinks he can say anything he pleases because there is not a man to take up the insult, is mistaken if he thinks he can get away with it. Helen Mitchell McEvoy lived all her life in a country where men were careful what they said to women and where juries cleared men for protect ing women when measures of violence were restored to; she never knew men in all her broad experience who tried to say uncomfortable things in front of her or any other woman and we serve warning that the man who uses uncomfortable language in front of her again may suffer the conse- quences. If necessary, we can get gun and God help the man who says vulgar in front of her when she is armed. She has seen men shot on sight for a good deal less than was said yesterday to her, and when a girl used to shoot racing jack rabbits to the cheering of her fathers men, Juneau Clean.

did only what self-respect required when it silenced him. Had it ordered the sergeant-at-arms to throw him out it would have done itself greater honor, for in this way it would have administered fitting rebuke not only to him but to those who voted for him.
 Berger will not be admitted to the house again until he is able to show that he is not guilty as decreed by the federal court of conspiracy to violate the espionage laws of the United States. It goes without saying, almost, that he has had his last glimpse of congress from his chair in the house.
 The plunge from congressman to convict was his own fault. It matters not whether he was blinded by theor- ies, by egotism or by devotion to kaiserism and the kaiser's friends in the United States. He sided with the enemy when his country was at war and did it brazenly, blatantly and de- fiantly. His downfall and punishment should remain as lesson to Ameri- cans and especially to those who, coming from alien shores, have fore sworn allegiance to foreign rulers and taken an oath to uphold the constitu- tion and laws of their adopted country.

To the Foot of Mt. Putnam
A trip to Mt. Putnam takes about
thirty miles each way. The route is
via Ft. Hall and up Ross Fork creek
into the heart of the Indian reserva-
ton. Six or eight miles up the creek
the road forks and sign indicates
that the left hand road leads to the
dam, meaning the Blackfoot reser-
voir, while the other turns off to the
southwark up the broad valley lying
on the western side of Mt. Putnam.
There are good many springs and
creeks and about twenty-five miles
out from Blackfoot, the car begins
to touch high centers. Springs,
creeks and about twenty-five miles
woodlands abound, and parties can
take their choice of locations.
The Northern or Western Base
The road leading to the dam, the
left hand road up Ross Fork creek,
leads close to Mt. Putnam along it's
northern base, thru a canyon, where
the scenery lies close in and stood
on end. Springs and rocky spots,

People who want to go out for a
Sunday trip and eat picnic dinner
in the woods or by a cold spring, are
informed that the Blackfoot country
affords many such places, but they
are not very well supplied yet with
roads passable for cars. Much is
said and printed about such places
in the vicinity of Mackay, Salt Lake
City and Ogden, but little is said
own locality. There are plenty of
attractive places that roads can be
made into, and we ask people who
are familiar with roads already
made, to add to our stock of informa-
toin so we can publish it.
For Fish and Ducks
There are cold springs and small
lakes near Springfield, and fishing
and duck shooting make Springfield
attractive. 1t is about thirty miles
from Blackfoot, and reached by very
good auto roads. In the Tilden bot
toms south of Springfield on both
sides of the river there is some tim
Der, and the mosquito season ends
with the cool. dry weather that u.s.
ually begins about the last of July.
This year the mosquito crop was light
and the broods disappeared early.

HELP THOSE SOLDIERS

The bureau of war risk insurance
at Washington, is anxious to learn
the present address OF the following
honorably discharged soldiers, who
are said to be forfeiting valuable

with woods and camping places are
found, and the road leads over high
summit about thirty-five miles out
from Blackfoot. This road is rich in
the varigated colors Of the trees and
by the drouth and cool weather. Per-
sons desiring to enjoy the autumn
leaves as they knew them in the old
eastern homes, can see much of it in
a two hours ride up Ross Fork
creek.
Into Lincoln Valley
The road to the old site Of Fort
Hall on Lincoln creek has been badly
broken up this summer and was not
passable until rains came. The clay
coating has been broken so that cars

Cold Greeks and Springs

Ft. Hall bottoms begin at the head
Of Spring creek at the lower side of
the Ferry butte ten or twelve miles
below Blackfoot on the reservation!
Spring creek affords picnic grounds,
but it is hardly fordable for cars,
and it is long way down to the
bridge, at the -Adobes. Timber is
scarce and aside from the natural
beauty of the meadows with their
clusters of trees and willows, the
springs and marshes, there is little to
attract picnic parties. There is a
very good picnic grounds at the up
per edge of the Ferry butte, nine
miles below Blackfoot on the left
bank of the Blackfoot river. They
can be reached by crossing the river
at any Of the bridges below town or

TOURIST ROBBED
AT CITY PARK
Tourist Sleeps and Robber Makes
Away With Trousers Containing
Currency and Silver
AUTHORITIES FOUND NO TRACE

The sheriffs office and the city
chief of police are cooperating to
locate the burglar who entered the
tent of B. Hammond, a Mackay
branch visitor Sunday night while he
was asleep, and took $115 in cash
and also pair of trousers containing
the pocket with the money in it.
Early Monday morning the police
and sheriffs were notified and made
thoro search of the park and fair
grounds, but found no trace.
Fortunately the trousers turned
up. They were found at a spot
where the fair grounds fence has a
hole in it, and where Deputy Daley
stepped thru the fence during his
search. The robber had boldly re-
turned the pants at the risk of being
discovered in broad daylight.
This case recalls a similar burglary
committed about two weeks ago at
the residence of George A. Anderson,
when valuables and money were
lifted from the clothes of Mr.. Ander-
son and Mr.. Henderson while they

Miss Permeal French, dean of wo-
men at the University of Idaho, will
be in Blackfoot at the Eccles hotel
Saturday, Aug. 16, and she desires
at that time to meet all the young
men and women Of Blackfoot, who
are graduates of the university.
Miss French is also anxious to
meet all high school students that
she might tell them something of the
wonderful advantages and opportun-
tiles that the university at Moscow
offers to students.

road up to the summit in that direc-
tion some twenty or twenty-five
miles. 1T is twelve miles up to Fifty
springs on the Yandell ranch, and
that is good place to have dinner,
tho there is no timber and your
party may have to walk across the
field some distance.
Up Cold Creek Canyon
Turning off of the Lincoln creek
road just below the site of the old
fort just below the Cosgrove ranch,
parties can go up cold creek into fine
mountain scenery about twelve miles
from town. A little canyon affords
all the crooks and turns, the little
cliffs and gorges and the towers that
go to make up the large canyons, and
it is the closest place to Blackfoot,
where one can see mountain scenery
in the mineature. Horse-drawn We
hicles would have no trouble in get
ting out there at any time, and autos
can make it now by taking time at
the rough places. On reaching the
meadow lands couple of miles be-
yond the Blackfoot bridge the right
hand road leading up thru the fields
is said to be better than the road
along the edge of the hills. To get
the right start on this trip, go east
on the Rich lane across the Black
foot river.
Big Canyon Of the Wolverine
A trip to Wolverine leads out
about thirty miles now and the road
is being extended so it will lead over
the summit forty miles away by the
middle of September. This already
leads thru very beautiful canyon
with cold creek and brush and tim
ber along the banks. Persons wish
ing to climb to the tops of the cliffs
will get fine view Of the valley for
hundred miles if the day is clear,
and field glasses should be part Of
their outfit. There in one cliff from
which people have counted the trains
along the tracks from Tyhee to
Spencer, distance of more than a
hundred miles, and Snake river is de-
scribed as silver thread bordered
by large gardens harmonizing with
the rest of the landscape, a most per-
feet relief map stretching away into
hazy vistas, where mountain ranges
peep over the horizon. In late sum-
mer and autumn 1t suggests the
Indian summer with all its. restful
dreams, while in the month of June
when the rivers are high and all the
great canals are running full Of
water, the rivers converging the
water and the canals diverging It,
shows a double system Of circulation
like the blood vessels of the human
body. The great plains, the lava
beds, the round mountains, the
world of green sage, the sharply out
lined meadows and grain fields, the
screen-like fields of beets, the towns
and villages and the sharp outlines
of snow and pines on the mountain
ranges peeping over the horizon a
hundred miles away, hold the party
enchanted and they scarcely speak as
they pass the field glasses back and
forth, touched by the bigness Of the
picture and their nearness Of things
divine.

MUNICIPAL BONDS
BRING PREMIUM
Bonds for $4,000 At
81 Per Cent; Pre-
miurn of $1377
LIVELY CONTEST

Bids were received at the Tuesday
evening meeting Of the council from
bonding houses to take $4,000 of
refunding bonds, with which money
the city Is to pay outstanding-war-
rants. The bids were as follows:
Hyney-Emerson G Co., Chicago,
twenty year honds, 6 per cent ,op-
tional after ten years, premium of
$1337.00.
First National Bank of Firth,
twenty year bonds, 6 per cent, pre-
MUM $1924.00, unconditional bid.
John Nuveen & Co., Chicago
twenty year bonds, 51a per cent op-
tional after ten years, premium $136.
International Trust Co., Denver,
twenty year bonds, 5h per cent
serial, premium $1177.00.
Keeler Brothers, Denver, serial bonds
; twenty years, 6 per cent, premium
$1500.00.
John e. Price Co., Seattle, twenty
year bonds, 5h per cent, premium
$4,000.
Bids Auctioned
AS some of these bids were con-
ditioned upon securing the approval
of bond attorneys satisfactory to the
bidders, and it seemed to the council
that better offers could be had by an
auction sale of the bonds, Council
man Quillin moved, seconded by
Clarke, that all bids be rejected and
the bonds auctioned. This passed by
a unanimous vote.
Mr.. Hall, representing Keeler
Brothers of Denver, being present Of
fered to eclipse any bid made, to give
a premium of $1377.0O on 51a per
cent bonds and receive the bonds at
Blackfoot. This was accepted and
the contract drawn upon the spot.
This company drew up the prelim-
mary papers for the bond sale, and in
buying the bonds, cancelled their at
torney's charge of $3.50, thus making
their bid almost $4,000 higher than
the next best bid.

The city Tuesday evening did not
accept the offer and w. l.. Young

1t land they offered to give twenty
root strip. Mr.. Watson offered to
donate twenty-foot strip If they
would open it right away and pay for
the crop that is destroyed. The
crops we're valued at 500 and the
council decided to accept the land,
but hestitated- about paying the $10O,
and it was suggested that it might be
allowed to rest until the crops were
off and then open it.
The railroad company offered to
lease a twenty-foot strip for a road
along their right of way above the
Rich lane, and this was considered
too narrow. Numbers of the council
suggest leasing forty feet and laying
pavement all the way thru to the
cemetery so pedestrians will have a
means Of getting out and back with
out taking to the railroad tracks or
the wagon road.
