city COUNCIL
: CALLS FOR BIDS
Work on Paving to Be
Started as Quickly
as Possible

Council, in regular session last
night, ordered calls for bids on paw
ing the streets of Blackfoot and on
intersection bonds, to be opened
July l.. @
The calling for bids by council
will mean that the paving Of the i'm
provement district of this city will
go ahead as quickly as possible.
The paving and bond questions for
the city occupied big portion OF
councils time last night and the
matter was gone into from all angles.
1t was the opinion of council that
the work should be done as quickly
as possible and it is expected that
the successful bidder on the paving
will commence his work during the
fore part of July.
Council took up considerable time
discussing the ditch problem in the
city limits and found that in several
instances water had been allowed to
over flow the channel and food the
streets. A committee will investi-
gate the matter.
The librarians report was dis
cussed to some extent when it was
found that a filing cabinet which had
been ordered did not appear to be
satisfactory to the library board. It
was decided to turn the balance Of
the last years libarary fund over to
the general fund.
A proposition from fire depart
ment supply house concerning some
800 feet damaged hose was settled
by council agreeing to pay for half
the cost of new hose.
Loose stock running thru yards
was frowned upon and the chief of
police is to be notified to place all
offenders under arrest.
Sprinkling districts was delayed
until a later meeting when the mat
ter will be threshed out to the salts
faction of all concerned
The ordering of the payment of
the current expenses concluded the
session.

/ At. meeting of the, fair board oi
the farm bureau held on Tuesday
afternoon at the eOmmereialmcluh
rooms, the matter of opening an out.
let from North Broadway to Main
was agreed upon. There had been
some doubt as to the wisdom OF
sacrificing the amount of land that
it would cut out on the curve across
the southern corner and establishing
the new entrance to the fairgrounds.
An effort had been made to pur-
chase some ground to add to the
Fairgrounds on that cornor, but the
price of the grounds desired was
placed at such "a figure that no pro-
gress was made in that matter and
the idea of any addition of ground
was dropped. James Duckworth
who for many years was president of
the fair association, and P. G.. John
ston, one of the fair workers for a
long time, attended the meeting and
stated that the opening of the road
would in their opinions, be a decided
advantage to the fair. but the ex-
pense of making and paving the new.
street and of building new and
beautiful fences would be consid err
able. The city and county proposed
taking care of all but the fencing,
and as that seemed to be stumbling
block, Gordon Bills states that he
would guarantee to take care of the
cost of the fencing, making it of
heavy woven wire such as the sugar.
company has used along the road in
front of their property, the posts to-
be 6x6 timbers, and two heavy tim
bers bolted on.
The side of the road next to the
fair grounds has to be fenced for a
distance of 1900 feet and the ditch
along the eastern side of
the grounds abutNng North Main
will have to be covered over and
paved for long distance.
At a meeting of the Commercial
club held Tuesday evening there
were present some of the officials of
the Oregon Short Line who discussed
local Improvements with much inter-
est. They were passing over the
road on a tour of inspection of all
the lines, including the branches,
and sidetracked their train for the
night at BlackfoOt.
The party consisted of H. V. Platt,
general manager; IF. H. Kicker
booker, general superintendent;
Charles Brooks, division superinten-
dent; W. r. Armstrong, assistant
chief engineer; B. Fl. Prater, en-

Confessions came like this:
r. e. Moore, Republican ward
committeeman Of St. Louis and dele
gate to the convention, admitted hav-
ing taken $4,000 from the Lowden
people and publicly stated that he
considered it wrong and announced
his intention of returning the money
to the Lowden committee. A
Nat Goldstein, circuit court clerk
in st. Louis and delegate to the Re-

$4,000 was going to be returned
forthwith to the Lowden people, He
said that he knew it was wrong

Mr.. Republican leader testified that
he did not keep one cent Of the $32.-
900 that Lowden people put IN hands
to awaken Lowden sentiment in

He furnished long list Of in
dividuals to whose hands the $32,-
900 landed. Jacob L. Babier of st.

teeman Of Missouri, stated that the
$4,000 paid to him had been COM
