every county in the state. Early in
July the Idaho State Medical associa-
ton will meet in this city, and in ad-
dition to the large number of Idaho
members of the profession there Will
also be men of national and even in
ternational reputation in attendance.
In August the largest of all state
gatherings, the republican state con-
vention, Will assemble in Wallace. 1t
Is probable that other state organiza-
lions VIII also meet here.
OF course there is a financial bene-
ut that will necessarily be derived
from the presence of this large num-
Der of visitors. but that is of small
importance compared with other ben
efits that will follow if the people of
Wallace rise to the occasion and take
advantage of them. In connection
with these meetings there will of
course be committees TO look after
providing accommodations for the
visitors, their entertainment, etc, and
1t is here that the true spirit OF Wal

impressions to carry away with them
and express to their friends at home
The standing committees will have
plenty OF work to do, and their sue
cess will depend largely upon the CO.

to him to help entertain the visitors.

A fool there was and his pipe he lit

The day was windy and dry.
The forest was burned to its very

Even beneath the ground
With the flowers, the birds and the

Old hoary oaks, and the tender shoots

Allowed to wander around

His pay day comes no more
And the screech owls haunt the camp

Where the cooks tin pan woke the

But the mill is silent, the trees are
gone,
The soil and the forest floor.
A deadly sight are those hills Of rocks
Which once were beds of green
No hope for the human, no food for
the flOcks
The floods must be held by expensive
locks
And the harbor is silted to the docks
The ships no more are seen.
But the fool smokes on in the forest

Leaves camp fires burning too
While the patient public pays the bill

HuRRARD,s LETTER

New York. May 3.-(special)- Jour market opened well over last nights closing figures on reports of con- tinued rain in Texas. At the high point of the morning Liverpool was a good seller along with scattered profit taking on the theory that reaction was due.
 After the sharp advance of yester- day. The weekly weather was con sidered very bullish but was offset somewhat by the belief that Texas was due for better weather during the next few days but later forecasts indicated that cloudy weather still prevailed with the possibility of more rain. There was considerable spot business done in Memphis today ana yesterday, southern mills have been good buyers. We still feel the trade does not realize the serious damages that have been done throughout Tex as during the last week-Hubbard Eros & Go.

Comparatively Light ! Trading tn Bonds

New York, May 3.-Business in bonds today was comparatively light and the tone for the most part showed increased irrecularity, especially among domestic and foreign war is- sues. The Liberty serioi closed mainly at moderate declines and in- ternationals were uncertain or lower. especially Argentine 5s and some of the Swiss and Mexican issues.
 Local transactions represented the markets constructive side. notably New York railways whose recent rise has been one of the mysteries of the bond market. The per cent issues were most active and strong. in con- trast to Interboroughs, which gave way to realizing sales.
 Changes among domestic rails were conflicting, losses of fractions to over one point being offset by gains of like extent. New Haven 31zs of 1854 rose 35s points and tho 3hs of 1947 gained about half that much.
 In keeping with expectations. tho new s25 100000 Pacific Telephone and Telegraph issue found ready sale. Among the forthcoming issues is one of s35,o00.000 by the New England Telephone and Telegraph company which Is to be offered by a Boston banking house. Today's sales, par value, were s17, 7,4s2.000.
