Itepubllcan party at tho coming pri The opportunity of owning such land on such terms comes but once in a lifetime. It is here now; are you willing and ready to grasp it ? If HP' 1 iit Fruit land, with all its great advantages, can be bought in tracts of ten or more acres at from ninety to three hundred dollars per acre, including a perpetual water supply for irrigation, on terms of one fifth down and one-fifth a year for five years, or one-fourth down and the balance at any time up to five years provided the buyer improves the land purchased, it being the intention of the campany to take one-fourth cash and let the buyer pay for his land from the crops raised on it. In other words, we will sell you, say $1,000 worth of land for which you pay us $250 cash and share your profits with us until you have paid us the remaining $750. Could anything be fairer, or do more to show our confidence in this land ? Ten acres is is enough, for under irrigation the yield per acre is more than ten times as great as from land farmed in the Mississippi valley, and a man with ten acres in fruit is independent for life. Mr J.W. Fox will leave your city Friday April 10, at 4:30. Call at Hotel St. Geo rge and make arrangements to go and see this beautiful tract of land, even if you jdo not want to buy, the trip is worth the time and price.

Fatal llalad) Punlea the Physicians of Idaho. "Spotted fever" has broken out in a number of families in this city, due to the bite of the sage tick, common ly known as tho wood tick. The bug, after obtaining a hold on the body of Its victim, procedl to bury Itself in the flesh, and is soon hidden from view, says the Holse Capital News.

A baby was nffectcd with the disease and the mother did not know what the cause of It was. A lump had appeared on the side of the baby and it was fear ed that the child was suffering from a rupture.
