WHERE HAVE THEY GONE?

A few years ago the trains operat-
ing in this section were crowded to
capacity with people that seemed
to possess a mania for travel; all no.
tells were filled, and it was necessary
to make reservations days in advance
if one expected accommodations; all
apartment houses were filled; such a
thing as a house to rent was unheard
Of, and unused rooms in private homes
rented for almost IS much per month
as an entire house rents for at the
present time; communities were
booming and all places were crowded.
The condition was not peculiar to any
place, but was general. The question
now is, "Where nave the people
gone? ?"
Railroad travel is no longer con-
gested; hotel clerks are no longer
lordly, and the ordinary traveller is
assured of 4 welcome, a room and re-
duced rates. There are vacant dwell
ing houses; scores of "rooms to let;
vacant offices and business buildings,
that few short months ago were
crowded. The present condition is not
local, but is general as was the 9TH
er, and the question naturally arises,
"Where have the people gone ,"
They have been absorbed somewhere,
or has southern California taken them
all in? Certainly there seems. to be
plenty of room right now for those
who are left.-Times-R Register.

WANT TO HEAR GOOD I
MUSIC? LISTEN TO
WESTERN CATBIRD

The western catbird, which is des-
cribed by ornithof5gists as distinct
departure from the bird of the same
name that visits the east in that the
westerner is some singer, has come
around the trees and shrubbery of
Salmon this spring in unusual num-
bers. The distinction that belongs TO
this little creature is that he is not
only able to initiate eat even more
perfectly than his eastern cousin but
his dulcet vocabulary makes him a
veritable mocking bird too, with the
sweet tones of a thrush or linnet all
along the scale to include the call Of
whippoorwill as we'll as the song Of
robin. This eatbird songster keeps up
his music all through the night as
we'll as from early dawn to dusk. He
is just little bigger than the ordi-
nary sparrow with long dropping tail
feathers, dull slate color all over.

This Smiling Seaaon.

Smiling under the warmth of SUM
mer, which came late but with burst
ing life in every sunbeam, the valleys
Of the Salmon country are now pret-
tier than ever before. Farmers say
they never knew grass and grain to
start off with better promise. The
benches and bars as well as the bot
tom lands are rich in verlure. Cattle
and sheep are waxing fat. Abundance
Of water is stored in the snow still
banked in the mountains. A good sea
son for crops and livestock is at hand
and we all may be happy yet, you bet.

CANDIDATES COMING
FOR PARTY PRIMARIES

One of the new political hats cast
into the ring this week is that of w.
d. Rusk as a democratic candidate
for county commissioner from the
second or Leadore district. Nj. Rusk,
who is one of the heavy taxpa yers of
the county with annual payments of
about $4,000 on ranch holdings and
large livestock interests, lives IN his
land near the town of Leadore. He
saws his platform is distinctly an
economy platform. He is one of the
hundred, who think taxes are too high
for the healthy growth of the county
and that there must be ways and
means devised to reduce them.
Jesse E. Shorett is first to an
nounce his candidacy for the office of
assessor. He is a good democrat and
a good citizen and if chosen for the
office he seeks would faithfully dis
charge its duties.
Miss Isabelle Ryan has announced
her candidacy for the office of school
superintendent, also as democrat.
Miss Ryan is one of the conscientious
teachers Of the county and is well
qualified from business and education
| el training to fill the Office if called
TO it.
Having no opposition in his own
party Assessor W. C. White an
( nounces himself candidate again for
the same Office he has filed accept
ably fer four years.
What was intended rs an eXpedien-
to shut off independent voting ond
nominating was enacted when the
present election laws were passed.
Under present provisions there can
not be placed before the voters any
such thing as an Independent ticket.
1t must be straight republican or
straight democratic ballot. To get his
name on either of the straight tick
cts a candidate must be a member OF
his party in good standing at least
for the period of two years at The
time his nomination is filed. The time
for this filing is not closer than sc
days to the primary election August
nor before sixty days prior to August
!. This is construed to mean that al
nominations must be filed within the
month of June. This part of the ipo-
litical preliminaries must therefore
be looked after without delay.
