OAKLEY WILL Be
LEADING CITY IN
SOUTHERN IDAHO
SILVER MINING INDUSTRY BIG
AND is GOING TO GROW
WONDERFULLY

QUESTION: What's the mat
ter with Cassia County?
Answer: BurIey. (Quo e d
from The Cassia County
Courier.)
But that's only one side of the
question. Turn it part of the way
around, and you have:
QUESTION: What's the hope
OF Cassia County, that keeps
her grinding away and achiev-
ing progress in spite of every
thing that Burley has done Or
hasn't done?
ANSWER: Oakley Quoted
from almost any sensible man,
It's the old situation of the stone
rejected by the builders becoming
the cornerstone.
Time was when people in the 9TH
Ell end of the county tried to make
near-jokes at the expense Of our
city. Some folks are just that way
They are so made that they get out
of bed backwards every morning
and look at everything cross-eyed
Everything looks to them just the
opposite of what it really is. Such
people are handy to have around,
for it's usually safe to admire what
they condemn and scorn what they
praise.
The mining industry will make a
rapid growth in the mountains back
of Oakley this year. In 1920 the Vi
pont company shipped over million
dollars worth of gold and silver.
At present production is at a much
greater rate than that. About $50
unen are employed.
AS soon as the OakleyVipontI
power line is completed, the compa-
ny will begin work on another tun-
nel=this one to be between the
mine and the mill. If the new tun-
mel proves successful, it should add
a million dollars a year to the out
put.
1t is reported there are plans for
a third tunnel to begin at the
mill. With three tunnels the mines
ought to be good for three million
dollars worth of ore per year for
the next thirty-five or forty years.
There are other mines of which
much is expected. The Idaho Utail
company has had force of men at
work all winter and reports encour
aging indications. The Skoro Con-
solidated is also at work on a tun-
mel. The Idaho Silver Mining COM
pany probably will begin work soon.

with intent to escape payment; operate
a motor vehicle not properly taxed and
registered, use number platefor certi-

the law is rated the most serious Of
fense. ~
Letters ga" and "B" on the Ii
cense plate indicate that the certificate
is for passenger car, bus or hearse;
the first letter denoting the SIP min
imum and the other the higher tax
payment. Truck license plates carry
the letters t'T' and "X" and must
be displayed on all machines carrying
other things than passengers. Road
sters with boxes are taxed as trucks.
Dealers plates can be used on cars be.

open the safe in the bank at St. Mar
tin, Stearns county, and escaped with
$4,000. .:.,. .5,,.,...I15f ..I1f
The bandits drove into the village in

cut all telephone wires, insulating the
town, another shot out the arc light
in front Of the building. They then
forced an entry into the bank.
The bank has no vault, but keeps
its valuables locked in heavy safe.
The bandits worked for nearly an hour
before they succeeded in blowing open
the door Of the safe. Eight charges OF
explosives were used.
The first explosion aroused several
townspeople. Several shots were fired
at the robbers but they did not stop
their work. None were hit. ~.
Cashier Robert Kuhl did not learn of
the robbery until it. was over. He
drove to Richmond, the nearest tele.
phone station, from where he notified
the sheriff at st. Cloud. By that time
the bank robbers had had more than
an hours start.
