new YORK PEACE
CONFERENCE FAILS
Rail Executives Stand
Firm on Seniority
Issue

The conference held in New York
Wednesday between 14S railway
executives and the leaders of the
"big five" unions ended in a COM
plete failure. The railroad officials
held firm to their promises to the
men now working and refused the
proposals Of the unions. They Of
fered no plan to end the strike and
refused to take the strikers back
only as they were needed and with
out seniority rights. AS a result OF
this the other rail unions may be
speedily drawn into the conflict with
a possibility of nation wide tie-up.
After the conference broke up
the committees representing the
railroads and the unions began pre-
pairing statements setting forth the
attitude of their respective sides. 1t
is said that these statements will be
given to the public as soon as they
are completed.
President Harding addressed the
house recently and scored the
unions and railroads, upholding the
right of man OF work where, when
and for what he pleases If the work
is available. Some sort of legisla-
tion is looked for in the near future.

MAKE
SECOND EXCURSION
One Hundred Eighty
Men Attend in
Thirty-one Cars

The second farm bureau excur-
sion to be held this year was staged
Tuesday, August Is. The party
started from Blackfoot and went
north to the Bonneville county line.
The excursionists assembled at
the asylum east of town, where the
herd of Holstein dairy cattle was in
spected. M. Feldbaum, instructor in
agriculture at the Blackfoot high
school and r. F. Johnson, manager
of the asylum farm, gave short
talks on the dairy industry and the
points to be remembered in buying
dairy cows.
The second stop was made at the
Uriah Taylor farm to inspect Mr.
Taylor's fine field Of sugar beets. A
general discussion was held regard
ing the best cultural methods.
Just beyond Mr.. Taylor's farm
George R. Mason's Duroc-Jersey
hogs were visited. Mr.. Mason has
been in the pure bred hog business
only two years, but in that length
of time he has produced some hogs
that have attracted attention thru
out the country, having taken sew
eral important prizes at the Ogden
livestock show last year. He IL
marketing his grain at good profit
in red pig hide.
At Riverside Eric Sundquist was
visited and his Rural and Russell
potatoes were inspected. Mr.. Sund
quist has been carefully selecting
his seed and roguing his fields fol
the last four years, and as result
he has some dandy potatoes
especially his Rurals. J. M. Raeder
assistant plant pathologist of th'
University of Idaho, showed tht
farmers how to identify Mosaic,
| troublesome potato disease, and toll
them how to combat same.
! Near Basalt stop was made t.
inspect the garden Of John Quinn
Mr.. Quinn raises garden produce il
quite large quantities for tn
market. His chief hobby, however
is onions. A fine plot Of onions wa
visited and Mr.. Quinn gave tn
farmers some information on tn
best kind of seed to be used and tn
proper cultural methods. He raise
his own seed and has very carefull
selected his onions used for thi
purpose. This insures a good Gro

SCHOOL TO OPEN
TUESDAY, SEPT. 5
Full Corps of Compe-
tent Teachers Has
Been Obtained
MORE ATHLETICS
Small Chrildren Will

MORE ATHLETICS

Tuesday, Sept. 5, marks the OPEN
ing of another school year in Black
foot with the outlook that it will be
memorable one in its history. The
prospects are for larger enroll
ment than ever before, yet with this
increased enrolment, we are trying
to take care of the school with four
less teachers than a year ago. This
Is a reduction of seven teachers from
two years ago, and by this alone
have been able to cut $1,000 from
the budget of two years ago.
For the present year at least, the
domestic science and manual train
ing departments of the high school
will be dispensed with and the tech
nical building is being rearranged to
accommodate the junior high school.
The first six grades will be accom-
modated at the Irving and Central
buildings. Miss Doyle will be in
charge of the junior high, Miss Tur-
man in charge of the Central, while
Mrs. Austin will be in control at the
Irving. This reorganization will re-
move all the small children from
coming in contact with the pupils of
the high school as heretofore.
We have been extremely fortunate
in being able to retain the majority
of the splendid corps of teachers of
last year, having to obtain but three
in the high school, one in the junior
high and nine in the grades. The
new teachers obtained all come very
highly recommended and with
splendid records where they have
been teaching.
Children living on the west side
of the tracks up to and including
the fifth B will attend the Irving
school, while those living on the east
side will attend the Central school.
All junior high pupils will be in
the technical building.
The following is list Of teachers
employed in the Blackfoot schools
for the coming year:
Primary Department
First Grade-Mrs. M. N. Austin,
Mrs. Nellie Grimes, Miss Vera
Spencer, Miss Gladys Muzzey.~
Second Grade-Miss Lucille Gra-
ham, Miss Ruth Henderson, Miss
Glendora Malcolm, Miss Inez Bjorn-
| son.
Third Grade-Miss Marie Millick,
Miss Helen Harper, Mrs. Bertha
| Swanson.
Intermediate Department
Fourth Grade--Miss Irene Good,
Miss Ethel Nelson, Miss Elvera
Steffens.
Fifth Grade-Miss Clara Purvis,
Miss Ora Kirkham, Mrs. w. R.

u Sixth Grade-Miss Bessie Vaughn,

BILL FOR COAL
COMMISSION PASSED
Miners and Mine Own
ers not Represented
on Commission

The administration bill for crea-
ton of federal commission to OBJ
tain all facts possible relating to the
coal industry and on which miners
and operators were denied represen-
tation was passed Wednesday even
ing by the house with a vote of 219
to IS.
Three attempts were made to
amend the bill so as to put repre-
sentatives from miners and mine
owners on the commission, but all
of them failed. The commission will
contain nine members at a salary Of
$500 each and will receive an ap-
preparation of 100000 for the cost
and upkeep of the commission.
Several minor walk-outs among
miners have taken place recently,
but other mines are gradually TAX
ing up the agreements drawn up at
the Cleveland conference and mine
owners state that coal will be on
the side tracks ready for shipment
by September 1.
The Cleveland agreement con-
tinues the old wage scale until
March 81, 1928.
