Mrs. Laura Kelley was in town this
week enroute to her home in Cascade
returning from Boise, where she has
been caring for her daughter who was
i'll. Mrs. Kelley conducts rooming
house at Cascade, and is making a
success of the venture. She has the
only heated establishment of the kind
in that part of the country, and is
greatly appreciated by the travelling
public.
George V. Johnson, former proprie-
tor of the Liberty Cafe, accompanied
his father home from California last
week. The o. L. Johnson family have
vacated their ranch, which was pur-
chased by F. E. Nefzger of Twin
Falls, and have moved temporarily
into house on lower Washington
Ave. We understand it is the in
tention of Mr.. Johnson to engage IN
the stock business when suitable
location is procured.
Probably nearly all of the policy
holders of the Northwestern Mutual
Fire Assn. of this locality have re-
Gently been favored by the receipt OF
a circular purporting to contain ex-
tracts from the pen of disgruntled
poIicyholders of that institution. The
circulars were mailed at Weiser, Ida
no, through an intent, no doubt, to
lead people to believe that
they lad been edited and circu-
lated by some committee or
association Probably this was done to
lend strength to the deception. The
circular bears the earmarks of one OF
the satellites of the insurance trust
an agent of that organization at
Emmett who has not the nerve to add
his name for fear of criminal prose-
cution. But the fact that he has to
stoop to trucking nefarious deception
in an effort to control business is evi-
dence enough that he has but little
backbone or principle and this little
effort at sharp practice only shows
the yery narrowness of his makeup.
