lay for water for an ordinary farm only
trifie, which is a great advantage over
paying $40 an acre for water right,
which is simply a permit to buy water
from a corporation at yearly rental Of
from 81 90 to $500 per acre in cash.
Second: Mild climate. It is well
known fact TO all old residents Of the
valley that the cold is less severe and
the snow fall much lighter at the up
per end o. the valley than IL is at
points farther down. AS you approach
Snake river you will find more snow,
more wind and lower mercury.
Third: Contiguous to markets. Min
ming camps furnish the very best mar
kets for the produce Of the farm, be-
cause miners must buy everything they
consume and as miners are the best paid
worklngmen as class. In the country
they are able aud willing TO buy their
supplies at fair prices and pay cash
for them.
The farmers OF the upper Psyette val
ley are in position to supply all OF the
mining communities of the mountain
country lying above them, which in
oludes the famous Boise Basin country,
Banner, Edna, Pearl City etc. All these
camps are on the eve Of a boom and IL
is a pretty safe prediction that within
the next two years the number of con-
sumers who will draw their supplies
from this section will be more than
doubled.
In conclusion we respectfully ask all
those who may be turning their faces
toward the land Of the setting sun, with
a view of securing homes, to investigate
this section of country before locating
elsewhere. All we ask is for you TO
investigate, and we will trust to
the merits OF the country and your
own good judgment to do the rest.

OLA ITEMS.

II has been quite a while since wrote
you last, owing to the fact that Ola is
such quiet and peaceful little valley
that items are hard to gather up.
One Of the pleasing social events of
the week was an ice cream social given
by Mr.. and Mrs Geo Smith at their
residence. The house was beautifully
decorated with flowers. the evening was
spent in games aud various other anus
ments Mrs. Smith was assisted by Mrs.
Peron in serving ice cream and cake.
The guests were received by Misses
Minnie and Nettie Smith Every body
had all the ice cream they could eat and
all went home feeling very much bene-
fitted from being there.
News has reached this valley that a
band of masked men drove about &C
head of Charley Stuart's cattle into a
corral aud shot them down without
mercy.

WORTH LOOKING INTO.

In these days when colonization pro-
jects are the rage and when there are so
many thousand industrious men and
women in the east looking towards the
arid belt for homes 10 is rather strange
that u proposition of SO much promise
as the one we have in mind should re-
main so long in the background. We
refer to the reclamation of the bench
land on the north side of the river OPP
posite Emmett, and also the land
on the south side OF the river that
lies above the Last Chance ditch. The
bench land contains some 20, 900 or 25,-
600 acres of land that for richness of
soil and desirableness OF location can
not be excelled anywhere. The tract
on the south side of the river contains
about 5000 acres and lying as it does at
the extreme head OF the valley. at the
foot of the hills is specially adapted for
the growing of early aud tender fruits
and vegetables. The soil is granite
loan. is deep, rich and warm, will not
bake aud is wonderfully productive.
A competent civil engineer made a
careful surrey and estimate Of ditch
to cover these lands about Is months
ago. His figures for the total cost of
construction of the canal including a
ilume across the Payctto river below
Black Canyon TO carry enough water
10 irrigate the 5000 acres on the south
side. was 100000 This would bea cost
OF less than $500 an acre for the land
covered
1t would certainly be good business
proposition for some one who is inter
ested in colonization to look this matter
mp. A colony organized on the plan of
the Plymouth colony, Of people possess
ing some means could make grand sue
cess here, and at a much less outlay of
cash than is necessary in buying land
aud water rights under corporation
canal. Further information can be OBJ
tanned by addressing this Office or any
business man Of Emmett.

$1,000 Feet Above the Clouds.

Nearly three miles above the sea, and
that lie in sweeping plain beneath you,
is something to think about time and
time afterwards, ism it.
In the summer of 1894, the Passenger
Department of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road fitted out an expedition to climb the
highest mountain south of the Canadian
boundry on the North Pacific coast, and
the grandest peak i'll the United States
Mount Rainier or Tocoma. The party
reached the highest point of the mountain,
after long and dangerous climb over
rocks and snow and glaciers that were
gashed by crevasses, and returned in SAT-
ETY. This magnificent peak is between
$4,000 and Is, 900 feet high, and indeed
may be found in the future to be over l 5,
900 feet, or nearly three miles i'll height.
In d beautifully illustrated booY, just
published, the story ofthis ascentis given

about this old mountain that was once

To Gust Settlers.

Much excitement prevails among the
settlers on what is called the Wisconsin
Central lands. These lands Were thrown
open for settlement iii 1891 and '92 and
about three hundred filings were made.
The entry men as class are poor men
with families and if they are elected the
hardships entailed will be dreadful A
complaint has been made by the receiv-
ers of the Wisconsin Central r. r. and
the settlers are being served with sum-
mons to appear within twenty days be-
fore the Ashland Circuit Court and show
cause why they should not be elected
and pay $4,000 damages each for their
unlawful occupation.
A number of the alarmed settlers APP
peared at the Land office to-day seeking
advice. Special,Agent F. J. Parke has
written letter to the Commissioner OF
the general Land office enclosing copy
of the simmons and complaint explain
ing the situation and asking for inform
alton as to the light and standing OF
the settlers.
There are three hundred cases involved
i'll this question, which means 1900
acres of land and 100000 damagesfor
the Central company if they are success
| full. Under the decision of the Supreme
Court in the Knight Osborn case the
Central company claims. these lands and
this recent action of the company has
aroused great excitement. These settlers
have been contesting among themselves
over these lands for several years and
now the Central people propose to steI
| in and GUST them all and secure damages
besides The settlers in town to-day are
greatly alarmed over the outlook. The
Central people have large number o.
special deputies IN this vicinity serving
summons and complaints on the settlers
The decision OF the supreme court iT
question holds that portion of th'
Omaha lands that were opened for set
tement belonged to the Central company
and was therefore not subject to settle
ment and entry. All of the land involv
ed is situated directly south of Ashland
