COUNCIL DOINGS
=


AT an adjourned regular meeting
OF the city council held Monday ev-
ening, one Of the matters discussed
Was the type of connections between
The sidewalks and the crossings. The
type used heretofore has been a
board laid across the gap, which is
always getting out of place and fire.
quently tripping people 1t is thought
that iron or concrete slabs will be
used preferably the latter, as it was
suggested by Mayor Anderson that
the cost of iron made its use prohib
itive. The slabs can be kept firmly
iu place, and there will be no danger
OF broken bones and suits against
the city. no matter how dark the
night or the condition of the man
going home. No definite action, how
ever. was taken on this matter
The fire cracker and explosive nui-
sance was discussed, and Attorney
Hall was instructed to Investigate
whether IN ordinance prohibiting the
sale and use of fire crackers will be
lawful, and if he finds it will be law
full an ordinance prohibiting fire
crackers will be enacted at a later
meeting
The Power line was granted per-
mission to extend their line on Wal
nut street north Of Main. Their char
ter allows them to use the alleys
only. except by special permission
and as there are no alleys running
mort hand south. it becomes neces-
sary for them to use the street n
this case.
Complaints were made concerning
campers near the Jerome Milling
company's plant stealing coal ant
other articles from the residents o.
that part of town. and Marshal Stan
ton was instructed to cause such par
ties to move on. unless they wer'
working on the public works nov
2 under progress. or. can give SOM
very good explanation for their pres
ence i'm the city.

DIDN'T HAVE THE GOODS

"Sanger's Greater European
Shows" which was widely adyertis-
ed as large circus to appear m Jc-
rome last Saturday. arrived in town
am right. but they were not permit
ted to show for the reason that thoy
did not have anything that could be
called circus When they unloade1
az the depot and it was learned what
they had. the city council held a
short special session and decided that
the public must be protected. and
that therefore no license should De-
issued to Sangers shows The largest
crowd the writer ever saw in jerome
had gathered here that day to see
the elephants. lions, iaguars. loop-
ards. crocodiles and various other
dangerous and semi dangerous ami
mails captured IN the jungles of FAR
of countries but when it became
evident there was nothing 70 be seen
in the way Of animals except three
OF four shetland ponies, the city ia.
thers decided It was too clearly mis-
represented in the advertising matter
circulated TO allow the stunt To Doe
perpctrated in jerome. So the com
munity has several hundred dollars
more money in circulation than II
would have had If the show ha'
been given. and the only harm tha
was done by the advertising is tina
the public will pay no attention t'
such advertising for some time in th'
future. no matter if the shows whicl
make this city are good ones u Il
the next show that comes along tha
will receive the punishment
Those who came to town to atten'
the circus had a perfectly good chau
tauqua and a perfectly good piotur
show to attend. so they were not pm
out to any great extent

SEES TRACT AFTER TEN YEARS

Attorney Paul Haddock of Sho-
shone. n member of the firm of wal
ters. Haddock & Reynolds, with Of
dces at Shoshone and jerome, was
I'm town Monday. and was accompan-
led by his brother. John Haddock,
whose home is in Portland. Oregon.
The latter was here once about
ten years ago and at that time
could not have been induced TO To-
cate on the North Side tract, but h'
states that his observations during
his present visit here have led NJ
TO materially alter his opinion o
The country. in fact he has had t.
form an entirely new opinion.

The above figures would seem To
indicate that it does not pay to raise
scrub cattle, when COWS that win
bring from S4OO to $1,000 can .be
raised with no greater expense. and
breeders say with less expense. thur
is necessary to raise the commoue.t
stock.
Mr. Clayton stated that these ctt-
tls were sold mostly to farmers di-
rectly around Twin Falls. which is
evidence that the south side farmers
are not scared at the present water
shortage, they at this time Only Doe.
ing allowed seveny per cent OF their

GOING IN RIGHT DIRECTION

The school bonds voted in our
