ISSUED EVERY FRIDAY Entered at the Postoffice at Cottonwood, Idaho. as second class mail matter. _ Subscription one year Sik GHONtGE ss tat Independent in Politics FRIDAY, OCT. 5, 1917 E. L. Parker returned Monday | |from a visit across the river where he | had been invited to attend the big road meeting held there last Saturday to launch the movement for building a good wagon road down to the river to the mouth of Rice creek. He says that people there told him that it was the largest gathering ever held there outside of Fourth of July celebrations, every section of that vast territory be- ing well represented. ‘The people over there are determined to secure a wagon road to Cottonwood, said Mr. Parker, and they will have no trouble in carrying their bond issue. All the road commissioners were present and a vote was taken as to the amount of the bond issue, which will be some- thing like $30,000, and time for elec- tion and the commissioners agreed to make the call at an early date. No adverse, criticism to the bond issue was heard and while it can be reason- ably expected to have some opposition there is no question as to the success- ful conclusion of the issue. A. H. Sasse, publisher of the En- terprise, and Supreme Judge of Ferdi- nand, spent a few hours in town Sat- urday and also Wednesday. We en- joyed a very pleasant chat with Mr. Sasse, who by the way publishes the neatest and brightest little paper in the entire country, Judge Sasse pub- lished in a recent issue of his paper his secret of success in being able to take frequent auto trips with college professors, preachers and other notables. He simply says that “a bottle works wonders when applied just right.” Now if the Judge will explain just : ” | where he is able to “spear” a bottle, | it will prove a boon to suffering hu- manity among some other country ed- itors who would also like an occasion- al auto ride. aC, Safley of Moline, Ill, closed a} deal this week with which had been L. A. Wisener, pending for some time, whereby he becomes owner of the Free Press, published at Grange- ville, and has already assumed charge of the business. Mr. Safley, who is an old and experienced newspaper pub- lisher, was for some time connected with the Boise Statesman. The Free Press was established by Aaron F. Parker 32 years, ago and is the pio- neer paper of the Camas prairie coun- try. The plant was acquired by L. A. Wisener in 1907 and he has since managed it. Wisener was named as postmaster of Grangeville and recently received the appointment for the second term. A blind man with a guitar helped to entertain the crowds on our streets Tuesday and Wednesday by singing and playing. Everybody sympathizes with the struggles ofa blind man try- ing to make his own way, and he took out many a dollar from here. Col. T. O. Green, field representa- tive for the Lewiston Tribune, was in town yesterday. The Tribune enjoys} the well-merited distinction of being the best daily paper in America for |’ the size of the town—10,000 people. When timothy hay is selling at $20 a ton, as it already is this time of the |, year, for winter use, oat straw will | be worth $12 a ton and wheat straw | very nearly as much. Every time you burn a straw pile, you destroy money. Indians predict that this will be a very short and model winter. We | hope they are correct in their predic- tion—for once in their miserable lives.
