CARL CARLSON LOSES
WAGON SHOP IN FIRE

Fire early Saturday morning al
most totally destroyed the wagon
shop and woodworking establishment
belonging to Carl Carlson, located
just north of the fire station.
The blaze was discovered by Mar
shal Frank Boyd, who gave the
alarm by firing off his pistol, the fire
siren being shorted in some manner
and refusing to work.
Owing to the fact that Miss Bon
ME Goddard. the night telephone op-
orator, had to call the members of
the local fire department individual
ly, the boys were handicapped in do
ing their usual good work, and as the
blaze had already obtained great
headway when discovered, it became
9 question of stopping the spread of
the flames to adjoining property.
This the fire boys succeeded in do
ing, and in a short time the flames
were entirely under control.
Mr.. Carlson's loss is considerably
heavy, and he lost almost all of his
fine lot of tools, and the insurance
carried will not, so he informs the
compensate him for
more than half of his loss.

Life Not Worth Living

Bereft of his pipe and hop, and i'll
as a result Of abstinence from his
favorite solace, Lem Low, SO-year-
old Chinaman, evidently concluded
that life was but a hollow mockery.
Accordingly he went into the wash
room of the Gilmore county jail
where he was confined, took bath
and donned clean clothing, tied a
rope to the water pipe on the cell
ing, mounted an overturned wooden
tub, and stepped off to join the souls
of his ancestors.
His dead body was found by his
partner, Lem Wong, about a half
hour after DEATH
Lem Low and Lem Wong had been
arrested about two months ago by
federal authorities. charged with
possession and sale Of narcotics. Be-
ing unable to give bond, they were
held in jail to await the action of
the federal grand jury.
Sheriff Arthur Stevens stated that
Lem Low had complained OF being

The remains Of the dead man were

noon, the last rites being given an
oriental tinge by the presence of
several Cinnamon.

JUDGE GTVENS FOR
SUPREME BENCH

Judge Raymond L. GiVens and hie
court reporter, Lou Phelps, passed
through Mountain Home Tuesday Of
his week on their way home from
HALEY, where the Judge held court
n the absence Of the regular presid-
ing Judge. Incidently they had some
rood fishing while in the Wood river
country.
BY the way, Judge Givens is now
being talked of as a candidate for
The supreme bench, to fill the place
aow occupied by Judge Mccarthy.
In this connection the Salmon Her
I'D has the following to say:
"The name of the Hon. Raymond
L. Giyens OF Boise has been proposed
for seat upon the supreme bench
of the state Of Idaho. And it is tac-
lily understood that Judge Givens
will accept the honor whenever ten
dered to him. It is always gratify-
ing to hear of good man willing to
assume the duties and responsible
Ties of Office, and the higher the Of
fee, the more pronounced IS the
qualification. Judge Givens presided
on the district bench in Salmon for
a few days, and the acquaintances
he formed while here have laid the
foundation of most abiding conf
lence and esteem"
The Republican can cheerfully en-
lorse the above remarks. Should he
be selected as the candidate of his
1arty, and subsequently elected, the
itate OF Idaho will never have ocea-
iion to blush for any of the acts Of
Judge Giyens in his legal capacity
IS well as in his private life. He is
man well qualified by nature and
raining to reflect credit on the SUI
,reme bench of the state.

BEAUTIFUL SCENES
ON UPPER FALL CREEK

The writer last Sunday, in COM
pany with S. F. Lewis of the Boise
Payette Lumber Co., made trip to
the upper Fall creek country, and
was considerably surprised at the
fine timber and beautiful scenery
which that region contains. 1t be-
ing our first trip, we had premature
ly decided that the report of the
excellent marketable trees growing
in that section was merely because
the observers had never gazed upon
the timber of Oregon and Puget
sound, but we hereby crowhop, back
step and bump our head three times
on the ground to signify that we
haven't been travelling around Ell
more county enough.
The water in Fall creek is rather
low at the present time, but it is a
beautiful stream, clear and cold, and
contains some fine native brook
trout.
We hope, however, to see it
stocked in the upper stretches with
native brooks and rainbow.

COOLIDGE-DAWES
REPUBLICAN, ENTRY

Calvin Coolidge was easily nomi-
mated for president by the Repub-
lican convention last week, He re-
ceived practically all of the votes,
Senator LaFollette receiving 35 and
Hiram Johnson 10.
The convention finally succeeded
in finding a man who would accept
the nomination for vice-president-
Charles F. Dawes, ex-comptroller of
the currency and one Of the out
standing fnanciers Of the world.
Senator LaFollette will probably
be the nominee Of the radical ele-
ment when they hold their conven-
ton, but 1t remains to be seen
whether or not he will draw strength
from the Republican ticket.
The Democratic hosts are now
gathering at New York for their
which starts out Tuesday
Of next week. Indications now are
that neither McAdoo nor Smith can
muster enough strength to be nomi-
mated, and a dark horse" is the
probable outcome.

was a severe blow to her many
friends and acquaintances.
Gladys Johnson was also a sweet
young girl and her surviving rela-
tives have the earnest sympathy of
the people of this section of Idaho.
The Sutton boy was not very well
known here, but he was a guest of
the Johnston family at the time of
the accident.

BANDS WORK rs
IMPROVING

Visitors who have recently '1ist-
ened in on the practices of the
band are surprised at the fine show
ing they are making in preparation
to dispense music for the three-day
celebration here July 3, 4 and S.
All of them are entering into the
spirit of the thing, and as the band
is composed Of players most Of whom
have had band experience, the task
Of getting the aggregation in trim
is not so difficult as it might seem.
Reports from over this section Of
the country are to the effect that
large crowds will be in Mountain
Home to enjoy the really fine pro-
grams Of stunts, races and athletic
events which have been prepared.
Bruneau and Glenns Ferry will be
here with bells on, and the Grand
View section viii also be represented
to large extent.
It has been suggested that it'll
would be good thing for the busi-
ness houses Of the city generally to
close on Friday all day, and some Of
the merchants will also remain
closed over Saturday, thus giving
all concerned chance to enjoy the
full two days. The lumber yards
have already agreed to do this, and
it is more than probable that the
hardware stores will follow suit.

ROBBERS GET HUGE
LOOT FROM TRAIN

Four auto loads Of bandits, who
evidently knew what they were
after, held up Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul mail train Friday OF last
week, about thirty-fve miles north
of Chicago, and after a fight with
the train crew, made away with cash
and securities yariously estimated
at between one and three million
dollars in value.
]. H. Wayne, a wounded man, was
subsequently found by the police in
4 fiat building in Chicago, and is be-
lieved to be one Of the bandits. Four
other persons we're arrested at the
same time and place, and the officers
believe they will soon have the rob-
berry cleared up and most of the loot
recovered,
