A Dam Nuisance.

There have recently been COM
plants made in regard to the dam
constructed across Warm Springs
creek, at the head of the Philadel-
phia Company's water ditch. The
cause of complaint is that the dam
is not so built as to allow the fish
to get above it on their ascent OF
the stream to their spawning
grounds. The structure is devoid
Of such devices as would make it
easy for the fish to surmount the
obstacle. While there is no law OF
the territory compelling the owners
of the dam to remodel it so that
fish can ascend the stream, yet the
common law would be applicable
in providing remedy, or the means
of abating an obstruction which
interferes with the interests OF the
general public and not merely 8
private right or the rights OF few

IDAHO NEWS.

Idaho Avalanche: Asperset is the
name of a new grass in this county
which is said to be better than al
falfa, for two reasons: first, that it
will grow on the sagebrush plains
without irrigation; second, that 1t
grows two crops per year, producing
grass with more nutriment than
alfalfa, and is much better for mich
COWS or for fattening beef. OF
course it will be tried, and if it is
half as good as it is represented to
be, it will not be long before the
valley of the Snake will be a green
pasture.-We learn from gen.
tleman recently from the Bruneau
that several men are now working
on the canal being taken from the
Bruneau by the Snake River Canal
Company, and that the work is
progressing rapidly.
Blackfoot News: Eagle Rock feels
confident of railroad from that
point to the National Park
Bingham county farmers will beat
all past records on the quantity Of
grain to be seeded this spring.
Weiser Leader: A colony of about
fifteen families will arrive here in
few days from Union county, Or,
and intend to locate somewhere in
the county, probably in Long Val
ley or the Meadows. They are all
said to be well-to-do people, hav-
ing stock, good teams and other
property. This is the kind Of peo-
pie we want and invite to place
in our fair territory.
Challis Messenger: The Black
foot stage coach comes in nearly
every night loaded with passengers,
many Of them being former resi-
dents Of Custer county who have
been east to spend the winter, and
they say on all their travels they can
find no climate that equals that OF
Challis.-"Buck" West has sew
enty-slx acres OF ground ploWed
and fifty-one acres seeded.
The Caldwell Tribune winds up
an article describing the towns on
Wood River, which place the editor
visited last week, as follows: SIN
Ketchum the same open, free
hearted hospitality, such as is only
known in mining towns, was OBJ
served. While Ketchum lacks the
artificial work of man to compare
with HALEY, as if to atone, nature
has been more lavish with hel
charms Of mountain scenery. Il
will in time be a beautiful city. Tc
those who desire to escape the heat
and dust of ''the fat for a week
during the summer months, WI
would recommend a trip to Woo
River. Stop at Bellevue, HALEY
and Ketchum and you will neve.
regret the trip.

Three Important Land Districts.

The Idaho Democrat in late is
sue publishes a statement made to
Governor Stevenson, of the follow
ing named land districts:
Receiver Montgomery and Register
Beane, of the U. s. land Office, at Black
foot, saw that there are 5000, 900 acres OF
surveyed lands in that district and about
100000 acres Of which are open to set
Element, the greater portion Of which Is
susceptible of cultivation; and about s.
100000 acres of unsurveyed lands, of
which one. half are susceptible of Guilt
walton.
Register Harlem Pefey and Receiver
H. C. Branstetter, of the U. S. land office
at Boise City, say that of the 2,576, 731,
OF acres of surveyed lands in this district
about 100000 are still open to settle
ment, the greater portion of which is
susceptible of cultivation, and that there
are about 7,5O0,O0O acres of unsurveyed
lands of which one half at least is sus-
ceptible of cultivation.
Register Billings. of the U. S. land of
flee at Haley, says that there are in that
district 75O. 900 acres of land susceptible
of cultivation, of which 100000 acres arc
surveyed.
There appears to be quite a diff
ference in the area of the public
lands between the first named dis
tricts and that of the HALEY land
district. The latter embraces a
large extent Of territory, including
the counties Of Alturas, Lemhi and
Custer, and it would seem that there
should be more land susceptible OF

Imnortaut instructions.

The KEYSTONE ia in receipt OF a
circular from Controller Wicker
sham giving important instructions
to Assessors for their guidance in
receiving the returns of all property
in the territory subject to taxation.
The Controller desires to impress
upon the Assessors that their posi-
ton is one of great importance not
only to the citizens of their respect
i've counties but to the people Of
the whole territory. Their work
furnishes the basis of all proceed
ings in raising the public revenue
of the county and territory. 1t is
the method, the Controller says,
which must be depended upon for
Justly distributing the burdens OF
taxation among the taxpayers: his
instructions contain many whole
some suggestions to Assessors IN
regard to the manner OF assessing
and collecting the public revenue
which mode has been carried on
altogether too loosely in the past.
He especially calls attention to the
fact that all property (not exempt

Wild Flowers.

The flowers and the robins have
arrived at last So we can say pos
itively that spring has come. The
first wild flower to blossom in this
vicinity is the low white buttercup
(Ranunculus Andersonii, which
grows in such abundance on the
hill north of town. A few warm
DAYS after the snow has melted from
the highest peak, starts them into
life at the very edge of the snow
banks. The single flower looks
something like an apple blossom,
and Ketchum people do not need
to be told how lovely they are, for
the little folks all over town soon
find them out and flock to the hill
to gather them, and many Of our
homes are frightened by their
beauty while the season for them
lasts. Though SO plentiful here,
they are really rare flower, and
are found in but few other locali-
ties in the United States. These
little white blossoms and the rob-
ms make their first appearance for
the season very nearly at the same
time. Last year the first robin
and first white buttercup appeared
on the same day, the 9th of March.
This year the robin whistled his
greetings to his northern friends on
the 29th of March, while the pretty
white blossoms waited for Easter
day before the first one awoke from
its winter sleep. The next flower
to blossom will be the graceful lit
tie yellow lily-like flower Fritillarla,
and soon after that, the hills and
valleys in every direction will blaze
with a perfect carnival of color,
caused by flowers of every hue and
kind. Many Of our wild flowers
are still 50 new to science that they
have not set been classified ncr
