Get Home Watermasters.

The Wdtermasters along Little
Wood river were taken off Tuesday.
There has been considerable trouble
here about water this year, and we
are of the opinion that a great deal
of it could have been avoided had
men from Shoshone or men ac-
quainted with conditions existing
here been appointed and not men
who know nothing about water or
water rights but are given the
place simply because they have a
little political pull and are not
able to render the people good SER
vice until the season is nearly
over, and they do not need water.
Two of the watermasters we had
here this season were from Noun
tain Home and were not acquainted
with our people or their needs.
Let us have men appointed from
home next season and we are
satisfied we will get better results
and there will not be so many
kicks registered. We have no
loubt but that Mr.. Purtill did the
pest he could all things being
considered.

NEW MEN AT HEAD

All obstacles that have heretofore
stood in the way of pushing toward
completion the power plant at Sho
shone Falls have almost
been removed. and we are
pleased to inform our readers that
the holdings of the Shoshone Falls
power plant people have passed
into the hands of men who have
tho capital to push the project and
intend doing so. This work, as
our people all know was held back
on account of legal complications
for some time but now most of
them have been disposed of and
the matter has about been settled
In the courts and there will soon
remain nothing to hold it back, as
there is an unlimited amount of
capital behind the new company
and they are men with not only
capital but plenty of push and
business ability.
The company is made up Of such
men as DR.. A. Z. Conrad of
New York. Thomas Prince of Wor-
cester, N, Y. and Benjamin w.
Carlow, also of Worcester, in COM
pany with Mr.. Blow were up to
Haley and Bellevue the first of the
week and DR.. Conrad stated to a
reporter that they were looking
over the power situation and found
he outlook for contracts with the

UNPLEDGED.

The republican party enters the
present campaign entirely untram-
meled by promises. 1t has no
::favorite sons" to urge for sena-
torlal honors. Those seeking such
honors must fight it out honorablv
before the real elective power-the
legislature-when that legislature
shall have been elected. This
campaign will be fought in the in
terest OF no one man, but on the
behalf of the whole party and its
great principles of liberty and
prosperity to every man and
woman. No good republican has
the right to force his own aspira
tions far whatever position if his
candidacy will in the remotest
degree effect the complete success
OF the ticket. The party is far
greater than any one man and its
triumph means much for Idaho.
The state has hitherto been
classed as one of those decidedly
doubtful politically and practically
under the domination of the lawless
and incendiary element. This is
the way the outside world looks at
US. 1t hinders development; it
stops investmentr; it frightens
away capital. To the republican
party devolves the duty of redeem
ing this state from existing
conditions and no good republican
has the right to stand in the way
of his party success when victory
means so much.
1t is pleasing to know that those
having the republican campaign
in hand are absolutely unpledged
to any candidate for senator and
will refuse to become so pledged.
The sole endeavor of Chairman
Gooding and those associated with
him, is to carry this state republi-
can, regardless of the ambitions OF
my one for senatorial honor.
After the fight is won next Novem-
oer-as it viii be-therc will be
lmple time to elect United
States senator.-Pocatella Tribune.

are members. Their quitting will
only delay the work a few days as
the company have men who will
take their places in day or two.

A LONG TRAIN FROM IDAHO
Boise Valley Stockmen Make Good
Showing OH the Cattle narket.

A train ef 26 cars OF cattle ar
rived from Haley, Idaho for
yesterdays market. The consignors
were w. A. Palmer, w. A. Fowler,
L. H. Barber, John Hudson, Tom
Aiken, Chas. Mace, Len Hart, l.
Pollard and George Clark. These
gentlemen come from the Boise
Valley. They pasture their herds
on the Camas Prairie range and
feed them in the valley during the
winter. Pure bred Shorthorn and
Hereford are used extensively and
the steers turned off are of very
fair grade.
Agriculture by irrigation is very
successful in this locality and stock
is well fed during the cold season.
Alfalfa yields five tons to the acre
in three cuttings. Timothy and
clover are also raised and give
satisfactory results. Oats go 40 to
60 bushels to the acre and wheat |

One year ago the 18th of the

Statesman William Mckinley took
flight from its mortal tenement
and went forth to its eternal home
on high. He had occupied many
positions of trust and had twice
been exalted to the highest position
in the gift of the American people,
that OF president OF the United
States. The anniversary was o.
served everywhere as the one that
call people to calm, earnest con-
iideration of the great problems OF
life and the light that was thrown

rock that he could guarantee would
assay. The only way to find what
rock is valuable seems to be by
assaying every foot of the cuts and
tunnels, as the formation is no
| guide. Those who are doing this
are obtaining satisfactory results,
and the most conservatory men in
Thunder Mountain today believe
there will be developed a number
of good mines in that immediate
district.
Such country while it is beyond
the reach of the poor prospector
offers much to companies who have
funds for research and development.
In the Big Creek district the
geological conditions are very diff
ferent, there being quartz lodges
with well defined walls. The
ledges are numerous and many of
them enormous in size, and all
seem to be mineralized, some being
very rich in both silver and gold.
| went over part Of the mineral
belt with two experts. They were
more than pleased with what they
saw, in fact, they pronounced it the
greatest mineral belt they ever saw,
if surface showings and geological
conditions counted for anything.
The fact is, this mineral zone has
never been turned down" by ex-
perts or good prospectors.
Mr.. Hollister has secured most
of his valuable holdings in this
district and will run developing
tunnels on them this winter. OF
course | secured an interest in some |
that looks well and have
brought out some rock that | will
take back to Chicago with me.
AS to the country on this side of
Thunder Mountain there seems to
be many prospects near Greyhound
Cape Horn, Bear valley
and Stanley Basin that promise
great things for their owners. 1
visited two properties and secured
from four others, that 90 to
prove to my mind, that "the half
las never been told" concerning
hat part of Idaho.
The supply of water and timber
throughout the whole district is al
most unlimited. The lack of
transportation facilities now shuts
his part of the state off from ,
factories and supplies,
'ut railroads and state officials are
ctively interested and as soon as !
he wealth of the country is proven
hey will furnish both wagon roads j,
nd railways.

We have the pleasure of print
ing letter from the pen of Chas
Perrine of Chicago, a brother of 1
B. Perrine of the Blue Lakes.

Thunder Mountain district; which
reads as follows:

l must say that at first I was
disappointed as | could not find the
right kind OF colors when | panned
the rock off several of the noun
tains that had been so widely
advertised as being mountains of
gold. Mining was q new subject
to me and I finally began to dis
tlnguish between a prospect and a
mine, a distinction that many
would-be prospectors do not appre-
ciate until they attempt to sell
their prospects. I saw that many
claims had been sold or bonded as
mines and some of these claims !,
were not even prospects, as they
were located when the snow was
from six to ten feet deep. The
amount of wildcat mining was
such that good prospectors even,
lost their heads in the first wild
rush and those that followed few
later soon became disgusted
and left.
