FIRST CATCH OF COYOTES
Nelson Brothers of Sesslin Bring IN
Whole Auto Load of Hides for
the Bounty the State Pays

Three brothers, Walter, Theodore
and Willard Nelson, of Besslin, drove
I'D to the courthouse Saturday after
noon with an automobile filled with
covote and bob-cat hides they had
secured in their trapping this year
The state pays a bounty of $3.50 for
each predatory animal killed, and it
was to get the sheriff, Clarence Wheel
er to certify to the kill they brought
the hides to the courthouse.
There were 157 coyotes and bob
cats in the catch The brothers start
ed trapping about the 10th Of Sep
ten1ber. so it was a little less than
months catch. They expect to have
a couple of more loads before winter
sets in. After the sheriff had marked
the hides they shipped them to hide
dealers to be made into fine furs for
city folk later on.
Last year there were approximately
900 predatory animals brought to
the sheriffs office to get the bounty
paid by the state.

JEROME PLAYS sHOsHONE
Football Game Schedules For Friday
On the Shoshone Field. Is
One Of Best Scheduled

After two or three weeks OF uncer-
tainty Shoshone high school decided
to have a 1922 football team. The
boys showed plainly that they desired
the sport by helping themselves with
some of the preliminary arrangements
and by offering to supply themselves
with part Of their equipment. Foot
ball equipment is expensive and in
wolves real sacrifice on the part Of
the boys.
Mr. Wesson undertook the coaching
Of the team and is giving most liber-
ally Of his time. though his work real
Iy needs him on the road much of the
time On one weeks practice the
team managed to defeat Richfield.
There is no doubt of the ability and
fighting spirit of the Shoshone play
ers.
For the good of the boys and the
credit of Shoshone, it is required that
the citizens give their moral and fl
nanciaI support to high school athlet-
les 1t is believed that business men
will contribute literally to help meet
the large bills for athletic supplies.
Above all it is hoped that the towns
people will turn out to whatever games
may be scheduled at home. So far
the schedule consists of a game with
Jerome at Shoshone tomorrow (F-ri-
day. and games with Gooding and
Hagerman later, away from home The
game with Jerome promises to be a
close, hard contest and may well prove
to be the best which the people Of
Shoshone can see this year. The coach
and principal. who saw Gooding beat
en- by Jerome at Twin Falls last week
are strongly backing the shoshone
team to win.
The football lineup will be as follows
Center, Ward Mills; left guard, Mel
vim Gartin; Right guard Bill Carr;
left tackle, Francis Crosse; right tao
kle, Weston Brunker; left end, George
Haddock: right end, Ed Murphy; full
back, Charlie Jones; quarterback,

CONNER SPEAKS
At DIETRICH
Republican Candidate For At
tOrney General Tells the VOt-
ers OF Dietrich Some PERTH
nent Facts About the Nose
Alexander Reign at the Capt.
tai and Presents Facts and
Figures As to the Republican
Administration.

Captain Conner republican candi-
date for attorney general of the state
of Idaho, spoke to the voters of Die
trich Tuesday night. In part he said:
It is recalled by the more than a
million dollar deficit left by Alexan-
der when he retired as governor that
he had a system of taking it out Of
this and that fund, and that accounts
for the hole in the state funds, and
the Grass incompeteacy that charac-
terized his administration.
He did the same thing to these
funds, for instance:
Diverted the sacred endowment
funds, dedicated to schools, hospitals
and humanitarian institutions. to the
general fund.
Diverted funds set aside for the
farmers, the predatory animal fund,
the gopher fund, and the livestock
sanitary fund, to the general fund to
make showing.
Spent the funds derived from in
surance caused by the fires at the
Lewiston Normal and Soldiers Home.
Failed to pay sssO,OOo of the bond
issue, in order to swell the general
fund
Spent s12,5OO to build home for the
head of the blackfoot asylum and left
the unfortunate inmates huddled like
sheep. 1t required $4,000 to later
make the repairs necessary to over
come this condition.
Diverted nearly 100000 of the Gem
irrigation district fund to the general
fund to make a false showing.
Took the $4,000 Steunenberg. and
the $4,000 bridge fund and threw it
into the general fund pot to make it
look right.
When John Haines left the govern
ors office there was s67s,o00 in the
general fund Normally about s400,-
600 is required to run the admins
tration fund. Despite the Illegal
funds he added to this amount, Alex
ander left but s212,422s1 in the gen
eraI fund when he quite office. In
addition to the bonds left unpaid,
the unpaid bills for the administra-
tive department totalled s1s7,oOol
And he has the bald effrontery to
state he would take more funds from
the departments. But he won't. He
won't be there.

ADDISON SMITH
At R|CHF|ELQ
Congressman From This Dis
trict Tells the People of This
County What Congress Has
Done to Help the Farmer and
to Restore Prosperity to Ev-
eryOne and Gives Account Of
His Stewardship in Washing-
ton.


Congressman Smith, speaking at
Richfield, Friday night, said:
A brief resume of the contrasting
conditions found by this Congress af-
ter the inauguration, and the present
conditions should be considered in or
der that one might fully appreciate
what has been accomplished. The
farmer had his grain, but no market;
the stock raiser had his cattle. but no
market; the sheepman had his sheep
and his wool, but the market price in
many instances was insufficient to
cover freight charges from raage to
market; sugar factories were either
closed or operating at tremendous
loss; and various other conditions
which affected the farmer could 90
cited. Why did this condition exist?
Because under the Democratic Under
wood Tariff Act markets of the United
States We're flooded with foreign COM
modities produced by cheaper labor
with which American labor could not
compete, and because the Democratic
Administration in 1920 suddenly re-
stricted credits to the American farm
er.
This condition was alleviated by the
passage of an emergency protective
tariff in response to the Presidents
campaign pledge that he would sign
such a measure as soon as Republic
an Congress could pass it, and on
April Il, 1921, this emergency tariff
bill, once vetoed by President Wilson,
was reintroduced and was signed by
President Harding on May 27th Of
that year.
The War Finance Corporation act
was amended to provide an additional
fund of s25.OOO,OOo. No other Con-
gress has ever understood more clear
ly the needs of the farmer, and no
other Congress has passed so much
legislation directly beneficial to the
farmer.
This Congress has enacted legisla-
ton limiting the number of immi-
grants to SO of the number of foreign
born of any nationality now in this
country. In many other ways has the
administration helped the farmer and
the laborer, two Of the most essential
and fundamental producers in the ma
tion's life.
Legislation has been enacted to re-
nevs the needs Of the disabled ex-ser-
vice man and to compensate him for
his sacrifice during the war Con-
gress has consolidated the Public
Health Service and the Bureau Of War
RISK Insurance. which had to DO with
