HOT TIME IN
'FALLELECT|0N
IS PREDICTED
Salaries Particularly Attrac-
tive at Present Time;
Many Candidates Expected
Primary Will Be Held on Aug
ust 1, and General Election
on the 7th Day of November

Although the season on political can
didates does not officially open until
June l, the first day for the filing of
nomination papers for county office,
local politicians are said to already
have begun discussing likely candi-
dates.
The 1922 election, although coming
on what is known as an off year, will
be preceded by a heated campaign in
Idaho county, it is expected. Owing
to the fact that jobs are not easily ac-
quired at satisfactory pay at the pre-
sent time, salaries of county officials
today look big to men who two years
ago would not have considered a pub
lie job. One hundred fifty dollars a
month is the highest salary paid in
the county, and already many covetous
eyes are declared to be focused in the
direction of the public pay roll.
FILL ALL OFFICES
Every elective office in the county is
to be filed this year. Party candi-
dates are nominated at a primary cleo
tion to be held on August /. The gem
eral election is November 7. Nomina-
ton papers, in order that candidate s
name will appear on the primary bal
lot, must be filed not earlier than June
and not later than July l.

bents, and annual salaries are:
State senator-Seth ID. Jones, White
bird.

WARN PUBLIC ON
SALE Of FAKE
STOCKS
State Constabulary Takes
Hand in Fighting Fraud
ulent Transactions

Repeated complaints to the state
constabulary at Boise, from all see
tions of the state to the effect that
irresponsible and corrupt stock sales
men are reaping a harvest from innO-
cent investors, led w. H. Hiatt, chief
of the constabulary, to issue warn
ing to the people of Idaho.
Mr.. Hiatt made the announcement
following receipt of letter from one
of his deputies who has been investi-
eating the operations of certain al
legged INSCRIPTIONS stock statesmen.
Two arrests have been made in
connection with one case of violation
of the state law, which prescribes that
no stock statesmen can operate in the
state without a permit.
81 have every reason to believe, y
said Mr.. Hiatt, " that there is almost n
drive on in several sections of the
state to sell worthless stock to limo
cent investors. From reports received
at this office from Lewiston, Pocatello,
and Idaho Falls it is evident that stock
statesmen who really have nothing tan
gible to sell are inducing innocent in
yestors to part with their money with
the belief that they will get ,ood re-
turn. AS matter of fact they get
nothing"
Mr.. Hiatt warns persons who are
by stock statesmen or any
one else with proposition which en-
tails the investment of money, to first
make sure that the venture is bona
fde and that the man is authorized
to sell stock in Idaho. He also rec
buyers to get receipt for
any money paid. This he said, is a
recommendation because
one man reported that he had been
induced to pay money on an invest
ment scheme and never even got re-
ceipt for it.

KOHN BAKERY TO
INTRODUCE NEW
BREAD PROCESS

Someone rightly remarked that
| the old time prosperity will not
come hack-we viii have TO so
after IT," declared Gorge NJ. Dunn
OF the W. E. Long company of Chr
cago, in a recent Interview. Mr..
Dunn is here rendering personal
service in connection with an ex-
tensiye advertising campaign that
| in being waged by the manufac-
turers of Betsy Ross bread.
IF this is true" said Mr. Dunn,
iii behooves every merchant and
manufacturer to lend helping
| hand in bringing back the SO eafled
good old times by a judicious use
of printers ink, for good advertis-
ing will create confidence in your
goods, and induce the people TO buy,
| IL what you are making or selling
is worthy OF public confidence and
worth what it costs. y
THE Korn Baking company, max
ers of Betsy Ross bread have faith
in the near future of the trf-cittes
and are not waiting for times TO
come back, but are putting forth an
effort to bring them back"
In proof of this statement Mr.
Dunn said: Instead of waiting for
the good old times'-aS we refer
to them, the officers of the korn
Baking company, an organization
that has made steady progress in
the tri-cities for the past 81 years,
is launching an intensive drive, ae-
quainting the people Of this COM
munity with the latest accomplish
ment of food experts in a famous
research laboratory in Chicago, an
improvement that is being intro
duced into their well known Betsy
Ross bread, which will greatly add
to the food value and keeping quail
tiles of this already popular brand.
1.-The makers of Betsy Ross bread
have arranged with this laboratory
for the personal services of R. FL.
Grosch, one of their staff. who
is here, teaching these people every
detail of scientific blending of in
gradients which are necessary in
making this latest Improvement in
bread, and We are sure it will be
readily noticed by the people Of
the tf1-CltleS.
Science has devoted much time
to the development of bread Of
higher quality and food value in
in the past few years, and it is only
natural that they should since no
other article of food plays such an
imprtant part in our daily diet.
*1'he only way the baker can
compete with the housewife who
bakes her own bread, and increases
the consumption of his product,
said Mr. Dunn, rs by making bread
of such high food value and in
such sanitary surroundings that the
home baker will readily see that
it is no longer necessary for her to
toll over the hot stove in her own
home.
THE baker who recognizes this
