For Comfy Surveyor.

In the probability that thousands
of dollars may be spent in Lemhi
county next year as already voted
in bonds for road improvement, the
Office of county surveyor is invested
with extraordinary Importance, much
beyond the trifing salary Of $50
year attaching to 1t. A surveyor may
pile up mighty big lot of costs in
the way of surveys and re-suryeys
and in the use Of cords and cords of
survey stakes along proposed high
ways. A few years ago there were
dozens of these gentlemen as thick as
flies, all drawing high salaries for
laying out roads that were never con-
structed. Unless the voters have short
memories they will recall all this and
the further fact that the present coun-
ty surveyor of Lemhi had no part in
that enterprise. His name Is Fred
Crandall, man of high character who
deserves to be elected again in the
interest of the taxpayers.
In the process of cleaning out the
courthouse neither Fred Crandall nor
Earl Gilbreath ever has his name in
cluded on the little list.

THEIR OWN MOTHERS
WOULDN'T KNOW THEM

DIR. Sullivan, the federal veterina-
rian now making tuberculin tests
among Lemhi cattle herds, was salut-
ed upon arrival in the city Saturday
afternoon as Irving Cobb, the noted
the resemblance of the two
men being that of twin brothers and
calculated to fool their own mothers.
81 am not Mr.. Cobb" replied the
veterinarian, "but good many peo-
pie think | am. Not long ago, when
the Paducah writer was lecturing in
Boise, he told me he had been called
DR.. Sullivan both in that city and at
Pocatello where | had been about the
same time of Mr.. Cobb's visit. We are
about the same age and size and one
is as good looking as the other, which
isn't saying much of either of u.s."
| DIR. Sullivan and Mr.. Cobb first be-
came acquainted in Chicago some
years ago when chance threw them
together in the same hotel and were
continually taken one for the other.
The friendship has grown quite inti-
mate, so much so that they have ex-
changed photographs. The humorist
autographed his in this manner, with
siacerest sympathies, Irving s. Cobb. >

HARMONY NINE TO
WORK ALL WINTER

Billy Anderson departed from Sal
mon Wednesday for a business visit
TO Salt Lake and Chicago. On the
road ahead Of him from the Harmony
mine there came 4iz-ton truck load
Of concentrates that carries at least
one quarter that much pure copper
At least one car week Is the presene
product of the mine. There are ~
men employed. One shift only is at
present employed as to the operation
Of the mill. This is to be doubled.
1t is hoped to continue the shipments
throughout the winter and to this end
the management is urging the i'm
provement Of the road to the mine,
a portion of the distance lying on a
recently opened public road, which re-
ouires county attention. The mine
management wants TO get the road
supervisor on the job before the win
ter would block him out.

County Commissioner.

We want man who will "stay put"
with his job when we elect him to this
office. Mr.. Viel has not only stayed
with it but they had to burn up the
ballots to get him to lay off trying
to get what he was lawfully elected
to have and to hold. The excellent
gentleman who is running against him
at this time has already filed a num-
Der of public Offices, every one OF them
having been resigned whenever trouble
appeared over the horizon.
The gentry of the pussy-footing fra
tenity selected. him TO make the. race
in the hope of beating Viel legally
this time without running the risk OF
penitentiary term for falsifying re-
turns, which is too dangerous to be
tried over again, they think.

SMASHING THE RINGS
AND CLIQUES OF OLD

Frank Ibach, an Old Hickory of
politics in Lemhi county, who honored
the Office of commissioner many years
ago by allowing nobody outside its
doors to dicate to him and pile up
bills for the county to pay, recalls the
time once before when the voters arose
as they seem likely to arise at this
election to try new order at the
courthouse. Though a consistent re-
publican all his life Mr.. lbach at this
time will vote for Albert Amonson
for state senator and all the policies
Amonson stands for in county affairs
as we'll. To this end Mr.. Ibach will
support the democratic board of
county commissioners from top to bot
tom as the body that should under the
law exercise control of all county
spending, both automobile hire and of
flee help. Mr.. Ibach firmly believes
that Viel, Fayle and Brown will do
that very thing.
As in the old days before, the domi-
nant party got too strong and was
running things in Lemhi county pretty
much the same as now in reckless
spending. Mr.. lbach took a similar
stand TO put the spenderS out OF busl-
ness. "At that time" says Ibach, sit
was the democratic ana free silver re-
publican party that was in the saddle
at the courthouse. At that time the
republicans were few in numbers like
the democrats two years ago, but they
nominated ticket of taxpayers and
with ready recruits from other parties
that ticket was elected. The democrats
| at that time coming to our aid saved
the county from impending ruinatior
| from the tax-eaters. That was more
than twenty years ago but the simi.
larity of the present situation with
that makes it seem only few year.
ago. | think it as little as we can d,
for the democrats to help them at thil
time to clean the courthouse, for i
needs a cleaning mighty badly"

Mrs. Jane Stuart.

This good woman, whose presence
always was a benediction, died from
the effects Of a fall from a donkey,
below Shoup, last Wednesday. She was
going for her mail. Mrs. Stuart was
50 years of age and lived alone since
the death Of her son, Tommy Harry,
who was a flu victim. The husband.
James Stuart, was partner with
Dan u. Langel in a valuable Pine
creek mining property, now owned by
]. 4. Walcott. There are no surviE-
ing relative Of the good woman IN
this country. She was native of
Hauick, Scotland.

The same old stunts pulled Off for
thousand years or two were engaging
the attention of the rising generation
Tuesday night, much to the annoyance

ATTACKS THAT COME
AS FROM ASSASSINSI

The emissary of an eleventh hour
stabber-in-the-back approached The
Idaho Recorder editor day or two |
ago to ascertain if an article attacking
the young man who is a candidate |
for Office against the advice and con-
sent of some people could have place |
in this newspaper. 1t was villainous |
attack and could have no room in our |
columns. 1t was offered at the wrong |
shop. 1t went into the stove.
1t is all of piece with the small
est of small town stuff, on par with
the work of the miscreant who poisons
a mans dog because he doesn't like
the man, or slanders his wife for no
better reason, or kills his sheep or
fires his barn or writes vile letters
anonymously. Such creatures are in
fact cowardly assassins whatever
their pretensions to responsibility in
any community. There is no place for
their foulness in the columns of a
decent newspaper.
They represent" themselves as be-
longing to different parties but rather
they are Pariahs and Traders and
Trimmers of both. In the present cam
paign not one of them would think
for minute of voting or supporting
man like Amonson as real demo-
crat or Martin as a real republican.
With them neither principles nor
qualifications, personal honor nor
truth count at all.
The authorship of the latest of the
assaults of this sort 70 find publication
in any newspaper, and made upon
woman that, is attributed to folm-
re banker who at present has nothing
, else to engage his talents in Salmon.
, 1t may be we'll to look out for other
, eleventh-hour attacks intended for the
yundoing of other candidates to be tax
, en- unawares. In all such let the vot
, ers consider the source and the OBJ
| jects sought to be attained and which
: have their origin where interests of a
: sinister nature are sure to lie.

PLENTY OF COAL
AND WOOD ALSO

While the regular dealers have been
shy on coal receipts private dealers
are able to get abundant supplies OF
this fuel.
At the same time it should be noted
that the opening Of the Oliver coal
nine above the city is proceeding
with all possible speed. An entirely
new shaft is being bored to explore
= new body of coal and there promises
TO be plenty of this fuel available az
an early day, besides hundreds OF
cords of wood from the Jesse creek

Meanwhile the shareholders have
their own troubles for withholding
what certainly does not belong to
them nor yet wholly to either side, for

which reliance was placed for deter

A successful business man, always
courteous and at the same time squar-
ing his actions to the demands of the
golden rule of honesty and integrity,
is the right sort to elect TO any pub
lie office. Such a man is Owen Swift,
the democratic nominee for state rem
reSen,ative. in the legislature he
would vote with the idea of cutting
down expenditures to actual necessi-
les and stand with Senator Amonson
for the enactment of progressive
measures at all times and in all
places. There can be no reform tax
alton on the initiative Of the next
governor, who will be Alexander, with
out the cooperation of both branches
Of the legislature. That's as true as
preaching. Swift is square dealer in
livestock and square in all his trans
actions. He is the right sort.
The Idaho recorder., 1922-11-03

In spite Of all that can be done
against him by every scheme and de-
vic, lawful and unlawful, Amonson
has them on the run. Nor only is his
own election assured but with this
leader Of the voters Of both parties
who are on the side Of the tax payers
as against the taX-eaters, the control
Of the courthouse also through the
Office OF the county commissioners is
certain to he won.
Mr.. Amonson has made the fight Mt
much sacrifice. No soldier called to
arms for the defense Of country ever
responded more promptly than he. The
people selected and the people will
elect him.
That man Vicl is the fellow who
keeps everlastingly at il. He was hot

payers themselves. There will be no
extras nor frills nor fads to pay for

time, being progressive citizens, they
will provide roads for the money spent
upon them and not waste a dollar.

To the Voters of Lemhi County.


The statements concerning my |
methods of soliciting votes as made |
in the Herald over the signatures of
both democrats and republicans are
false. My nomination came from the |
voters and l am making my campaign
upon qualifications of experience and
training as stated in my announce
ment made in both The Herald and
The Recorder and in letters l have
sent to the voters of Lemhi county.
My husband is too busy publishing
The Recorder to 'donlineer" any Off
Ger or to try to run any Office. His
interest is to give the reading public
facts about public affairs and public
officials of interest and real worth.
l have only words OF commendation
and praise for my opponent. As |
claim this Office should be non-paIti-
san would it not be inconsistent in
me to involve religion in it?
(Sigped) EVELYN MELVIN.
| 1t should be borne in mind that Mr..
| Quinn, the progressive party nominee
! for iudge,is not candidate and should
not be voted for at al, pc he he's heen
trying his level best for two weeks to
get off the ballot. He is supporting
the democratic candidate, Mr.. Harris,
in the hope that the people may have
a Judge on the bench in the sixth
judicial district. Word comes from the
home of Mr.. Harris at Blackfoot that
he will come mighty near getting a
majority in Bingham county, while
the other three counties of his district,
Custer, Butte and Lemhi, are expected
to roll up at least six hundred for
him more than his opponent. This Of
course is what his supporters have
reason to hope for, but it behooves
them to see every voter and win every
ballot to be won in the interest OF far
and honest elections.
The smiling countenances OF Com
, missioner Billy Briney and Donald
Martin are both lighting up the
campaign. Both were in the city today
when the faithful set forth for meet,
: ing at Leadore this evening, designed
as an offset for the democratic do
: ings in the same place a week ago
