"WATER storage is the key to water use," triteIy says the Pacific Rural Press. The time must come when the great water supplies of the West will be economically util' ized to the last gallon, Even the ancient Hindoos would have quick ly controlled for their own benefit the situations found in every Vest ern State which our present civili- zation neglects. There are hun dreds of Western streams passing through lands of unsurpassed fertil- itv, where the climate is salubnous and healthful, but where no blow turns the furrow, for the one reason that the streams are nov raging torrents and again dry beds of sand Only storage of these winter floods can equalize conditions ard make possible the reclamation of these lands.

LENTz WANTS AN INVESTIGATION
Introduced Resolution to Look Into
Idaho Mining Trouble.

Introduced a Resolution to Look Into
Idaho Mining Trouble.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Representa-
tive Lentz (O.) introduced joint reso-
luton reciting the charges growing out
of the presence of United States troops
under Brigadier General Merriam at the
centers of mining troubles i'll Idaho aud
asking for an investigation by a special
committee of nine members, to be ap-
pointed by the speaker.
The resolution said that it was mat
ter of general information that United
States troops were sent to Idaho in def
ance of and contrary to the federal con-
stitution, at the individual request of
the governor, when no riot or insurrec-
ton existed, and without consulting the
legislature or the local sheriff.
The arrests, it was charged, included
many members OF the miners union
and the local sheriff. 1t was asserted
that many nen were imprisoned in q
"bull pen, place unfit for human
habitation." Allegation was made that
one prisoner became insane from the
treatment, and escaping was shot as he
jumped into river. In another case,
it was charged, dying prisoner was
denied spiritual consolation. Specific
acts of cruelty are given.
The resolution also recited that the
wives and families of miners were in.
suited by soldiers, and it was alleged
that responsibility for the various actions
recited rested with the mining compa-
mics OF the localities.

WORST KIND OF CASE.
WE WILL TELL YOU IF you WILL
BELIEVE 1T.
The Experience Of Well Known Persons Ought
Surely to be Convincing.

We ask you to read the following
statement from a well-known citizen
because he sufferd from one of the
worst kind of cases of backache and
kidney disorders, and was cured by
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids. If you are in
the least way troubled with q weak
back or disordered kidneys, use Nor
rows Kid-ne-oids; they cure every
time.
Mr.. w. J. Lenhart, 700 Sterling ST.,
Cleveland, Ohio, says:-"I have suf-
fered for years with disordered kid
neys, also severe backache, headache
and rheumatism. 1 doctored with
different physicians and took all
kinds of kidney cures but it seemed
that there was no sure cure for me.
I read about Morrow's Kid-ne-oids
some time ago, and determined to
give them a trial. After I had taken
them n few days 1 was greatly re-
lieved. I will continue to use Nor
rows Kid-ne-Oids."
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills
but Yellow Tablets and sell at so
cents box at all drug stores and
at John Lamparter & Co.'s drug
store.

Some interesting light was thrown on
the position of affairs along the western
frontier by dispatch issued by a Boer
agency in Berlin. The dispatch said:
"Commandant Prins Loos' force is near
Jacobsdal, between -Modder river and
Rlet river. General Cronje is still on
the north bank of Modder river, hisrear
being protected by fortified positions at
Spytfontein. The hills between Modder
river and Spytfontein and those between
Jacobsdal and Riet river are occupied by
Beers. Communicate Deiarey's force IS
stationed between Gras Pan and Honey
Nest kloof."
If this Berlin dispatch be correct
and it is especially significant when
Guaged in connection with General For
estier- Walkers advlces to the war Office
there must be some $4,000 Boers
around Lord Methuen, who is believed
to have IL 900 men. Kimberley, how
ever, possessing an armored train, can
materially assist Methuen by harrassing
the Beers from the rear.

Wilson for Boer lady, taken prisoner

bers Of the state election board handed
down an opinion. giving tine election tc
Taylor. A third handed down an
opinion against Taylor.
Commissioners Ellis and Pryor signed
the majority report. in which they hold
that as board of canvassers they have
no right to go behind the returns Of the
county board. that their duty is purely
ministerial as canvassers. that the face
OF the returns show the election OF the
Republican state ticket.
Commissioner Ponytz presented a mi
nority report, which he closes by say
ing: 81 am unwilling to certify fraud
and to turn Kentucky over to the con-
troll of the bayonet, gatling gun and the
fraudulent tissue baliots."
Extensive preparations were being
made to inaugurate Taylor next Tues
day.
Goebel may make contest in the leg
islature.
Politicians OF both parties departed
from Frankfort IN great numbers. All
the Democratic and Republican attor-
neys left for home. Colonel Jack Chinn,
who has been attached TO the 'Goebel
headquarters, left, remarking with a
laugh as be passed through the hotel
door: 81 guess it is all up with US for

There is no indication of any trouble.
There has been great amonnt of money
bet on the election throughout Ken
tucky 40 to who would be the next gov
ernor or the state, and the bettors are
trying to decide whether if Taylor is de-
clared governor and later ousted by the
legislature as not being legal incum-
bent he was in fact actually governor at
ali in the eyes of the law. The Taylor
bettors construe it one way and natur-
ally the Goebel men figure 1t out differ
emily. There has been so mnch money
wagered on the outcome that the thing
has really q curious side to it.
