MEMORIAL
COMMISSION
FORMED
FOR THE PURPOSE OF ERECTING
A MEMORIAL BUILDING IN THE
CITY OF BLACKFOOT.
NO SITE HAS BEEN SELECTED
OFFICERS WERE ELECTED AND
THE ORGANIZATION WAS PER.
FECTED TO GET THE STATE
MONEY.

! AT meeting held at the Court
House on Friday, January 10Th, Me-
mortal Commission was formed, con-
sisting of County Commissioners w.
T. England, Nels Miller and John r.
| Williams, Dan p. Brill, Commander
of Stewart Hoover Post No. 23, Frank
| Dovark, Commander of Aberdeen Post
Commander Edell Of Shelley Post,
American Legion. The name of the
Commission is Bingham County Me-
mortal Commission" It's purpose is
to build a memorial to the deceased
soldiers, sailors and marines, who
lost their lives during the World War.
The officers Of the Commission are
w. T. England, Chairman and Dan
P. Brill, Secretary.
q The Idaho State laws provide that
any County or Organization therein,
Is entitled to 100000 from the state
to be used for memorial purposes,
providing that the County or Organ
ization puts up like amount. Some
time ago, at the request of commit
tee consisting of representatives from
the various civic bodies of Blackfoot,
the County Commissioners agreed to
appropriate the money required and
shortly after that a letter was sent
to the State Auditor asking for the
state allowance. The State Auditor
answered that before the money could
be had, it would be necessary that Q
commission be formed, location be
selected with a clear title to the same
and that plans and specifications for
the building be sent In.
AS stated above, the commission
has been formed, the plans and speci-
fications are being prepared, but as
yet the location has not been selected.
1t will be necessary to have the loca-
ton decided to the commission and our
claims filed before March Is, as the
money which the state has appropri-
ated for this purpose will be turned
back to the State Treasurer at that
time, unless all requirements are met
and claim filed prior to that time.
Bingham County cannot afford to
pass up this opportunity Of getting a
very nice start toward the building
of memorial. Blackfoot being the
County Seat and the logical location
'or the memorial, has been the place
selected for the same. The present
plans call for a community building.
which will be used for various COM
nunity purposes, and Blackfoot GER
ainly needs such building. The
American Legion Posts at Aberdeen
md Shelley have pledged their sup
,ort and Stewart Hoover Post Is max
ng every effort to get the thing go
ng Every individual in Bingham
,ounty is urged to get behind this
movement that we might build a
yorth- while memorial In honor Of the
len who so honorably sacrificed their
ives for their country. Certainly no
acrifice we can make can compare
18th theirs.

Along the winding reaches Of the

rowed by twelve oarsmen and with
two men at the massive steering oar.
The barge bears the Tudor coat Of
arms in brilliant colors, and was
adorned with ropes OF roses, draped
gracefully from stem to stern. Seat

opy is also decked with ropes of flow
ers and fluttering streamers, appears
the beautiful English Princess, the
fairest flower of the Tudor family,
surrounded by her court.

PUBLIC SALE BRINGS
NEARLY ALL CASH

The Jorgensen, Jensen and Jordan
sale held yesterday, proves two
things, One is there is money in the
country, and the other is, should a
farmer offer enough inducement he
can get the cash. Yesterdays sale,
while not as large as some that have
been held, 1t was fairly good sized
one. Plenty Of buyers were on hand
and the rs per cent of for cash,
brought in all but $4,000 in cash, and
1t is thought by Monoay even this
would be made into cash. It proves
that sales can be held and cash can
be collected, If the proper inducement
Is offered.

All other motor cars owned or pur-
chased between January 1st and Au-
gust 1st, will be subject to full IL
cense fees, with the exception Of cars
five years old, or rather cars on which
the full license was bought in 1918,
such cars will be required to pay only
two-thirds of full license fees.
Rates will be given below.
Cars owned and not licensed by
February 18th are liable to assess
ment and liable to seizure and sale
for the taxes on demand by the As
SCISSOR, the same as other personal
property.
Old cars bought any time during
the year are subject to the full sea-
sons license, and persons buying old
cars should consider this item when
making purchases Of the same.
The fact that some Assessors have
interpreted the law to read that a
five-year-old car purchased after Au-
gust 1st is entitled to two-thirds IL
cense on account of age, and one-half
