WASHINGTON. March g. -Represent>
ntives of the liquor interests have been
aroused rather suddenly to the impress

which passed the senate last week.

committee on agriculture has a
similar bill, and before the chairman

BODY has decided to hear interested
parties. The temperance people see an
opportunity to get in some work and
have applied for a day before the COM
mittee. They have discovered stimuli
rancously with the liquormen that the
bill which was primarily intended IN
the interest of pure food really puts
n check on certain brands OF
whisky and wines. The bill prohibits
any ad~ulteration of drink rs well as
food which is calculated to lower h
quality or strength and deceive the
purchaser. 1t forbids mixing and coli
oring. IT also strikes at false brands
The saving clause. which is all h a
stands between the liquormen and
wholesale condemnation of many OK
their products. is this: provided that
an article of food or drug which does
not contain any added poisonous in
gredient shall not be deemed to be
a~dulterated."
This clause the temperance people
will try to have amended to read in n
form much more sweeping against
liquor business as follows: provided,
that an article of food or drug which
does not contain any added or mixed
ingredient, deleterious or poisonous TO
health, shall not be deemed TO be
adulterated." That would give wide
latitude to reach the handlers of
liquors. The liquor lobby is up in
arms to fight this, and defeat the
whole bill, if possible.

be said to be the measurement of the

means that it ondeavors to discover

A Wonderful Mine.

The great Homestake property in
the Black Hills is one of the greatest
mineral producers in the country, il
not in the world. 1t has just an
nounced lis lG4th dividend of ten
cents per share, or total of $12, 500,
making the aggregate profits divided
to date, $4,8l8,750. A miner in the
employ of the company informed a
representative of the Deadwood Times
that there is twenty years supply of
ore in sight in the mine. A little
calculation will be sufficient to show
what an immense mine this is, if the
statement is true, and there is every
reason to believe it is. The Home
stake aggregation is dropping 700
stamps, each crushing an average Of
four tons of ore per day, or grand
total of $4,000 tons for the 700
stamps month. In twenty years
there are 240 months, and to keep
these stamps operating that length of
time no less than 100000 tons of
ore will be required. These mines,
according to the last report of State
Mine Inspector Corkhill, have already
yielded upwards of s40,00O,000, but
who can estimate, with such a vast
quantity of ore in sight, what will be
their product for the twenty years to
come.--Omaha Bee.

COMPLEX EMOTIONS.
Anaconda Standard

Anaconda Standard
1t is not easy to imagine more EN-
barrassing circumstances than those
that have just confronted two women
and their husbands at Dunbar, Pa
Twenty-one months ago occurred the
mine disaster at that place resulting
in the suffocation Of twenty-eight mi
ners. Their bodies ere removed the
other day, and it behooved the
friends and relatives to give them a
suitable funeral. But meanwhile the
widows Of two of the Victims had
married again and it became a nice
question of propriety whether their
husbands should, in the capacity of
mourners, attend the obsequies Of
their predecessors. If they should
express sorrow over the untimely end
OF the first husband, it would be re.
Election upon their wives; and If on
the other hand they should not lament
the loss Of those who had gone be-
fore, such course, while it would be
highly complimentary to their wives,
would be regarded by the neighbors
as brutal and indecent.
In still larger degree the com.
plicated situation worried the two
women. They could neither weep
nor rejoice without making mess of
it. They could not absent themselves
from the funeral without violating the
principles Of decency, and they could
not attend without giving offense, no
matter how they might conduct
themselves. The funeral has been
held and 1t is announced that the two
husbands and their wives were pres
ent, but no detailed report of the pro-
ceedings has yet been published. The
reporters, for some reason or other,
perhaps for considerations OF personal
safety, have drawn a veil over the
exercises, leaving the world in ignor-
ance OF the policy finally pursued.
Fortunately, the world has little
use for social presidents of this par
ticular kind. People should esteem
it matter of sincere congratulation
that they are seldom called upon to
mourn and make merry at one and
the same time. Even the writer of
Ecclesiastes in his lucid and exhaust
i've remarks upon the fact that there
is . time for everything, never con-
templated situation that would ne
cessitate time for bringing two to-
tally opposite emotions into collision.

BOnE GREAT IRRItiATING CAN
Ais OF BINGHAM COUNTY.



From the great Snake river comes
the supply Of water to irrigate the
vast acreage Of the best land to be
found in the State. This is taken
from the river 10 large canals, which
tap the river from twelve to twenty.
five miles above Idaho Falls. Some
Of the largest of these canals are
from 40 to 10 feet wide on the bot
tom and from 6 to II feet at their
head. After carrying the water a
few miles they are divided into
smaller ones; those are again divided
until the wnter is conveyed all over
the land that is tributary TO it.
Among the most extensive OF these
canals, with headquarters at Idaho
Falls, are the Eagle Rock and Will
low Creek, capital stock 100000,
nearly all Of which is owned by the
farmers using the water, and com
prising over one hundred miles OF
main canals and aterals, covering
100000 acres; The Idaho Falls Can
al and Irrigating Company, capital
stock s240,000 with about GO miles
Of canal and latcrals. covering nearly
100000 acres; The Idaho Canal Com
pany, capital stock 100000, with
about 100 miles OF canal and laterals,
one Of which is now being extended
across the Fort Hall Indian Reserva-
ton to Pocatello, a distance of fifty
FIVE miles from its hesdgate, and
when fally completed this canal will
furnish water for over 100000 acres
Of land; The Great Western Canal
and Irrigating Company, with two
large main canals and laterals, max
ing over 100 miles, extending to
Blackfoot, twenty-five miles south of
Idaho Falls, and covering over $4,000
acres.
In addition to the above are The
Burgess Canal Company, the Parks
and Lewisville, the Farmers Friend,
Cedar Point, Long Island, Snake Riv-
or Valley and Reservation. The
North Rigby and several others, all
within twelve or twenty i've miles of
Idaho Falls, and probably covering
from 10000 to $4,000 acres of land.
The entire country watered by these
canals is tributary to Idaho Falls, and
when the fact is considered that it is
only six years since the first canal
was commenced, and that during the
year 1891 only 10000 acres Of land
were under cultivation, and that dur
ing the same year the shipments of
hay, grain and produce from this sta
ton aggregated 1900 car loads Of ~.
100000 pounds. and that since Sep
temher |, 1890, over 900 acres OF
land have been filed upon and will all
be proved upon oy the first of Sep
TENDER, 1892, one can easily imagine
what the result will be in very short
time.

Public School Children Must Have No
Dust On Their Shoes.
Yesterday afternoon C. II. Gilman. the
well-known merchant, called at this
office with his little nine-year-oid boy, to
call attention to what he believes to be a
serious matter. He said that the boy had
been sent home from school by his
teacher because his shoes were not shined
to suit her. The boy asserted that his
shoes had been BACKED before he went to
school IN the morning, and they had be-
come dusty on the way and while at plav.
They certainly had some dust upon
them, but not more than would naturally
accumulate III walking few blocks, and
1t did look as if the teacher had drawn
the line down pretty fine. The lad is
unusually tidy and bright-looking.
OF course the rules of the School De-
partment requiring children 10 be clean
and their clothing and footwear to he
reasonably neat are commendable. bnt
judgment should be used if teachers ara
to decide to just what degree OF brilliancy
the shoes Of the pupil must attain to en-
title him TO admission to tho schools
There are many people in this citv who
send children TO the public schools who
find it pretty hard to purchase shoes for
their children at all, and many hard
worked mothers who have not the time
to see that each of the Youngsters has a
first-class s'shine" the last thing before
going to school. Is it the intention of the
Board of Education that such children
shall be sent home?
