SPRING WATER.

A company has been incorpo.
rated under the name of "Ketchun
Spring Water Supply Company
for the purpose of furnishing The
citizens of Ketchum with pure, colo
spring water. The capital stock O
the company consists of 24OO shares
of the par value of $40 per share
amounting to $4,000.
The stockholders met at the First
National Bank on Tuesday night
the 18th inst, and perfected an or.
ganization of the company by the
election Of the following-named per.
sons to serve as officers and board
Of trustees for the ensuing year, viz
George Steward, president; P. P
Baxter, vice-president; VIM. H
Greenhow, treasurer; Geo. M. Snow
secretary [. |. Lewis, Patrick Nc.
Mahon, G. E. Griswold.
AS soon as practicable in the
spring the company propose to con.
vey water to the town by means Of
spiral, riveted iron pipe, five inches
in diameter. The water will be
taken from never-failing springs OF
pure, fresh water situated about two
miles north of town The springs
are at such an elevation that the
water will have fall of about 154
feet, affording sufficient pressure to
send it to any part of town.
Ketchum has long felt the need
Of water accommodations, and it is
surprising that such an enterprise
has not been inaugurated before
this. The benefits to be derived
from plentiful supply Of water at
ali times are manifold. The great
est and most important advantage
to be derived is in case of fire. The
head of water that can be brought
to bear on a fire will be sufficient
tie keep three streams plying on a
building at the same time, thus
combining and subduing the flames
in brief period. Nor is this all ;
last summer when Trail creek was
so low every one felt the necessity
Of providing some more reliable
source from whence to obtain our
supply of water.
Comparisons have often been made
in the summer time, between the
appearance Of Haley and that OF
Ketchum, and not at all in favor
of our town. 1t is all owing to the
fact that the people Of Haley have
had the advantage of a system OF
water-works, whereby they have
been able to irrigate their grounds.
That made beautiful flower gar
dens and profitable vegetable
gardens possibility, and enabled
them to further beautify their town
by planting shade trees with the
certainty that they would have wa
ter enough to make them live and
grow.
Give Ketchum a good supply O.
water easily managed and before
long the comparisons will be the
other way. We have the advantage
of every town on the River in natu
raj beauty of situation; none Other
possesses the picturesque surround
ings we can boast. Our citizens
lack neither taste nor enterprise tG
avail themselves of abundant water
to cultivate gardens and lawns
Many trees have been planted from
time to time, but very few have
lived on account of the irregular
way-the only way possible-ir
which they were watered, But trees
have grown we'll whenever they have
had half chance, and with plenty
of water at hand, our streets will be
lined with shade trees and in very
few years Ketchum will be per.
feet bower of beauty.

Herr steube1 Sent to Samoa by the quick


BERLIN, March 5.-The recall from Samoa

been promptly followed by the dispatch of
Herr SteubeI, formerly consul general at
Copenhagen to replace Kim. Herr StsubeI
after an interview with Bismarck, left for
Hamburg under instructions to reach Samoa
by the quickest route. Stsubel's mission is
a special one. His position in the consular
service entities him to a better post than
Samoa, but if his presence there is followed
by harmonized re atoms with America he
will obtain higher rank. 1t is expected 10
