Mr.. Eastman, who is prospecting
for artesian water at Caldwell, re-
ported to the Tribune that the we'll
was down 103 feet Thursday evening
and that nothing had been struck so
far but sand and hardpan. By the
next issue the success or failure of the
experiment will be apparent
The first of series Of gigantic res
ouryoirs. to be built at Mt Home
for irrigating purposes, has just been
completed. The Range & Valley
gives its dimentions as follows: Six
miles in circumference at top surface
of water when full; dam, 210 feet in
depth, up and down the creek; dam
proper 800 feet wide with wings
reaching on either side to the extent
of 1000 feet and from top to bottom
the dam is sixty five feet. When
full the reservoir will hold over 5, 900,
600 gallons of water, and will irri-
case, such soil as we have here, from
5, 600 to 8, 900 acres of land.
James Otterson, of Toponis, began
sinking an artesian we'll on his ranch
three weeks ago only him and his
partner working Neither os them
had ever had any experience at that
kind of work They sunk it 100 feet,
when a stream Of water rose to within
40 feet of the surface This being
satisfactory the work of sinking was
discontinued. He will now pipe the
water from the bedrock to the surface
so as not to loose the pressure, and
he expects to get enough water to
irrigate good portion of his ranch.
This is the frst-the very pioneer
-artesian well driven in this region
by arancher for his own use. If it
proves proftable-as it no doubt will
hundreds of others will be driven
or sunk, and the water question thus
solved Range & Valley.

They would make it possisible for
the farmers to take advantage
promptly of the highest market, no
matter at what season of the year.
They would allow him days and weeks
of time which he wastes every year
wallowing through the disgusting
mire of bad roads. They would
reduce to a minimum the wear and
tear on wagons and carriages. They
would lessen the expense in keeping
horses in working order, and vastly
less horses would be required In
county to perform the farmers work.
They would make it easier for a team
to pull several tons over their smooth
surface than to drag wagon through
the mud. They would efford ready
communication with the outside
world at all times of the year. They
would spare the farmer many
vexations and nervous strains and
would practically shorten the distance
to the local market. They would
increase the demand for country and
suburban property. They would be
free from dirt in summer. and mud
and ruts in fall, winter and spring.
They would bring every farming
community into closer social relations.
They would make an evenings drive
a pleasure instead of vexatic.., as it
is now.

FRIEND WATLINaroN:-I see by
the SIGNAL that the artesian we'll pro-
ject is being resurrected. This is IS
it should be. If you want water you
must dig for it. Last year i left q
small sum with you to aid the scheme.
l will now increase that amount to an
even $40.
To an outsider it is surprising that
this enterprise was not carried out
long ago. The formation surround
ing you is more favorable for artesian
water than at any other point in the
Snake river valley. The limestone
underlying the town and tributary
country is full of subterranean
streams of pure water which will
flow TO the surface if you do but give
it a vent. Those hills north and west
Of the town are nothing but natural
reservoirs full of fissures Of water,
as other formations are full Of fissures
containing ores. You must search
to lind. Let the good work 60 on.
Let everybody take a hand in this
necessary enterprise. The result will
surprise you all. Moscow, Pullman
and Yakima, in this region, are illus
trations of what artesian water will do
for towns. Proceed with the good
work. Yours truly,
A. F. PARKER.

Sommer & Son sold last Friday a
bill of goods amounting to $3.50 to a
man from Mineral, who had them
shipped by rail to Huntington and
thence by wagon to Mineral, which
illustrates the preference for Weiser
over Huntington as a supply point
for the camp, and shows what might
be of almost daily occurrence were we
blessed with proper road facilities
Mineral cannot afford to buy all her
supplies here and ship them around
by Oregon, which, though not max
ing them cost any more, is entirely
too slow, laborious and unhandy,
and it is pitiful disgrace that we
should be deprived OF this trade
through mossback horror Of invest
ing few dollars in good roads.

CONGRESS.
Doings of Congress since last issue

Doings of Congress since last issue
may be summed up as follows:
Wednesday-Silver bill took up the
day in the house. Debate, argument,
recess, more debate, opposition, sup
port, great oral battle.
Thursday--Narrow squeeze Of the
silver bill from being defeated. Its
opponents came within few votes of
defeating it. 1t was finally laid on
the shelf, to be resumed in q few
days. Senate went into executive
session and received long correspond
ence from PRESIDENT regarding Behring
sea matter.
Friday-In consequence Of demor-
alizing effect Of free coinage fight
there was no quorum present during
the entire day in the house and it was
impossible to take decisive action on
important measures. In the senate .
bill was reported for the establish
ment of a fish hatchery in Montana.
The senate bill appropriating $4O0,- :
900 for public building at Helena,
Montana, was passed. Resolutions
in respect to the memory of the late
Senator Hearst were adopted. Ad-
journed until Monday.
Monday:-Clouds on the silver sky
and outlook dark. Bland discouraged
over the fact that he might not be
able 70 force to q vote the measure
that he has worked for 80 long. No
hope, in fact, and the silver question
is practically a thing of the past
as far as the house is concerned-de-
feated by process which we
do not understand ourself and
hence cannot explain to our readers.
A resolution was adopted calling ON
the secretary of the treasury for
information as to whether the capacity
of the mints was sufficient to execute
the authorized coinage. The Bering
sea difficulties are assuming brighter
side in the senate and it is likely il
will be peacably and fairly settled.

INSURANCE.
WHAT THE
WeStGrlIlsQralCe Review Says
In its issue of February, 1892.

I'VE had thought we were pretty well ac-
quainted with the WASHINGTON LIFE IN
SURANCE COMPANY of New York On the
contrary, we are only just now getting on in
innate terms with one of its very best and
strongest features, namely the superior char
acter of its assets. According to our analysis,
over ninety-two per cent. of this companys as
sets are of the best and safest classes known to
the world of finance. Here is how we reach
that conclusion: The best assets life insur-
ance company can have are loans to policy
holders secured by reserves. The Washington
has $27s, 739 "a in such loans. Cash in hand
is certainly safe. The Washington has S247,-
7Os of cash money. A company that pays
losses, as this one does, by the first mail or ex-
press after satisfactory proofs are in, has need
for fair amount of ready money. Prudent
ly selected real estate, owned outright, is n
safe, and, generally, is profitable asset. The
Washington has, ut cost value, $5O1 ,s1s.25 of
such real estate. But the bulk of the above
ninety-two per cent consists of first-lien loans
on real estate. The Washington has $9,54l,-
1922 in such loans. The property securing
those loans is valued at nineteen million dol
lars.
I'VE emphatically admire and commend the
Washington Lifes financial tactics in pinning
itself right down to United States soil. There
is nothing safer and more profitable in the
long run than American earth. The policy
holder need not worry who knows that the
funds which back up his policy are loaned on
real estate worth double the amount. Though
banks may crash and great bonded corpora
tions may default, the real estate stays-it can
not run away nor be stolen. As to value,
when the population of this country perma-
nently ceases to increase, then it may be ex-
pected that average real estate values will
cease to advance, but not until then.
In taking the course which we have men,
toned regarding real estate loans, the WASH
ington Life is on the safest side of safety. 1t is
our privilege to remark incidentally that the
Washington is thoroughly fair and straight
forward company. If any pOlicy-holder is
under any misapprehension concerning his
rights, it is either because he does not ask for
information or because he cannot understand
plain and candid English.

DRIVING OUT THE RABBIT.

When the rabbit, which seems to
be great mischief maker in the folk
lore of most races, is identified by the
aboriginal Cherokee physician as the
cause of disease, the rabbit hawk
is summoned to drive the wicked ami
NAL out of the patient. Sometimes
after the intruder has been thus ex
PEELED "a small portion still remains"
in the words of the formula, and ac-
cordingly the whirlwind is summoned
from the tree tops to carry the REM
nant to the uplands, and there scatter
it so that it shall never reappear.
