One storm after another has been
the story of April and March. The
month that usually comes in like a
lion lived we'll up to its reputation
this year, with the temperature as low
as 20 minus and ten minus ten days
later on. Now in the month that
should bring showers and sunshine
blizzards and SHOWS have rather pre-
vailed. About the worst of these for
all the winter came along last Satur-
day and Sunday, followed by four or
five inches of new snow on the night
of Monday, April 10-1f.
As a further showing of the va
garies of the season the ground was
frozen hard Wednesday morning from
a temperatureof % defrees as indi-
Gated by thermometers.
The Lemhi highway is at its worst
being almost entirely abandoned as 6
thoroughfare along most of the way
between Salmon and Leadore. The
only possible way for the delivery Of
mail has been from the railroad motor
In many localities hay stacks are
disappearing entirely from the neet

GREENE'S HOME OF
FERINGS ATTRACT

In the Home products week the
grocery store of Arthur Greene stands
out as one of the show places of Sal
mon, with every one of the offerings
that can be gathered from this locality
shown on the counters and shelves. In
this connection it is pleasant to see a
good stock of Lemhi honey shown,
besides the varied products of our
-four mills and the golden butter of
the Salmon creamery. 1t is good to be
reminded in this way of the excellent
quality of these products, which have
first claim as well for their excellence
as from whence they are collected.
Greene's store is always attractive but
especially so Just now.

fresh meat of her own killing, how
ever, was too great, and on the night
of March 25 she killed two calves at
the Austin ranch on the Blackfoot
river northeast of Soda Springs.
Tracked Her IL Miles.
Next morning Mr.. Cozzens donned
his white equipment, to blend with the
snow and make him harder to see,
equipped himself with skis and rifle,
and started after the killer. He
tracked her II miles to her den, and
there finished one of the greatest men
aces to stockraising in eastern Idaho.
He also killed the six pups.
The account of the passing of the
celebrated wolf is contained in the
March report of Luther Goldman, in
spector of the Idaho district of the
United States biological survey.
In addition to the old she-wolf, Mr.
Cozzens also accounted for two more
adult grey wolves, and poisoned six
coyotes. The total kill for the month
was nine grey wolves, POS coyotes and
i2 bobcats. The report is not COM
plete, as all the hunters have not
been heard from.

FUTILITY OF LAWSUITS
SEEN ON SNAKE RIVER
lRlackfont RenuhlicaI

(Blackfoot Republican,
In the year 1903 the great Snake
river water suit was started in an
effort to forever settle the rising dis
putes over water rights, and for ten
years the suit was in the courts Of
the upper valley. II involved all the
settlers, both the new and the old,
the poor and questionable water
rights and the oldest and best.
Everybody had to go to court; every
body had to put up money for court
expenses and lawyers and for witness
fees. In ten years II had cost the
litigants $4,000 for court expense
alone, and the totals paid for lawyers
have never benn known and never
will.
And when these litigants got done
they did not have any more water
than they had when the suit was
started, but they had a record, that
was all. And the lawyers had their
money. The people had lost a great
| deal Of time attending court when
they might have been at home pro-
ducing something il the suit hal not
called them away from their work
Lawsuits do not produce anything
We had a lawsuit in this valley
over water rights a long time ago
and there has been talk Of having
another one TO adjudicate the rights
again and have a new decree made. II
/ it is done it will be brought about by
somebody seeking TO get title t.
water that does not belong to him oI
by somebody trying to protect his
title TO water that somebody has beer
taking away from him, AM there
are plenty Of both kinds Of fellows.

WOOL GRADER Is AGAIN
TO VISIT LEMHI COUNTY


Alex r. Livingstone, Jr., wool grad
er and dealer, is to return to Lemhi
county for this seasons business. So
says. G. B. Quarles who is in receipt
of the following letter from Mr..
Livingstone.
Rawlins, Wyoming, April 8, 90.
Deas. Mr.. Quarles: Your recent
letter addressed to me in Boston
was duly received and contents
noted.
| will be Nsble to sell to the
largest Manufacturers in the Uni
ted States all the wool | grade,
at full value, shipments to be
made direct to the mill from
wherever | grade it. Payment will
be made by draft attached to bill
Of lading at time of loading.
Besides securing the value of
their wool, selling to the manu-
facturer instead of the dealer or
midle-man, the growers will
benefit to the amount of the diff
ference between my honestly
earned commission or margins of
profit demanded by the dealers
plus the saving of several freight,
trucking, interest and storage
charges.
l hope you and your family are
all well and ! wish you would
remember me to my friends.
Yours very truly,
ALEX II. LIVINGSTONE, JR
Mr.. Quarles strongly recommend
Livingstone's method of grading ant
selling woods and says that Mr.. Liv
Livingstone sold for the Lemhi count,
fockmasters about 10000 pounds O
wool last season, realizing from
sales above all charges about s Il
cents per pounl more than tn
amount received by many others b.
the old method of not grading. Whel
wool is graded the manufacture
! knows what the wool may be use
for; when not graded he does no
know and of course cannot pay a
much for ungraded woods. Those de
string Mr.. Livingstone to grade an
sell their wool may have him do so b

GETS A ROYAL WELCOME
Fleeing Eskimo Meets Danish King on
tiigh Seas and Is Given a
Cigar.

London.-An amusing story of the
King of Denmark S recent visit to
Greenland was recently told by NJ. Aa-
gaard Of the Danish legation, to menl-
bers of the Danish club in London.
As the royal yacht was approaching
Greenland, dark speck became vis-
bic on he open sea. 1t proved to be
solitary Eskimo in his little cayak
(native canoe). The Eskimo came on
board and his loyalty in having braved
the perils of the sea in such fraiI
craft assured him, needless to say. the
warmcst of welcomes. The king pre-
senied fim with ii cigar and what the
Eskimos most highly prize, rifle.
On landing The king described the
incident to the Danish commissioner in
Greenland and asked him who the man
was.
The commissioner in accents of hor
ror, replied: 1.-The mans an ESCAPED
convict. He broke prison, stole a
canoe and put to sea. We thought he
had been drowned"

the place names of number of cit.

Dor (Raciborz in Polish), Gleiwitz, (Gli-

the Polish side the place names of
towns which, while they have ali
along been known to the Poles by
their original Polish names, have for
the last two centuries officially borne
German names, will now revert to the
Polish forms. Thus konigshutte again

HAVE NEW IDEA OF MARRIAGE
Public Discussion Of the Subject in
the Japanese Press Is Regarded
as Significant.

| A series of articles on love and mar.
riage is appearing in Japanese news
papers and magazines, as sign of tho
modern tendencies of the japanese
mentality. Professors in psychology,
school teachers and writer's of note are
| prominent in the discussion on reform
Ing the old matrimonial system, all
| advocating more freedom for personal
| choice.
According to the old custom, the par
| entS chose bride and bridegroom and
the marriage was performed without
| the interested parties having known
| each other. Marriage was considered
| ii duty towards country and family,
the religion of ancestor worship be-
ing its principle. The young couples
lived with the parents and the bride
owed complete obedience to her
| mother-in-law.
The custom is now prevalent for the
young people to meet long before the
| marriage takes place 50 that they may
know each other, and to live apart
from the family is no longer CON
sldered undutiful.- Yet, of late, the
tendency appeared TO marry for loves
sake and out of personal choice. This
new and romantic ideal is so strong
tnat all means are tried to obtain 1t,
entailing elopements, suicides and
notorious family dissensions. Hence
the discussion for greater liberty and
more social life, Which are quite OPP
posed to the old social system Of
Confucius, that men and women should
keep apart and marry for duty's sake
and not for love.

The cumulative effect OF these flashing

her old-time hegemony as the city of
