Review and Forecast.
What tho Legislature Has Done
and is Likely to DO.

o"n. ~o.-Opsclat
to News and Courier: The Gen
erol Assembly has now been in
session for nearly two weeks. In
that time consideran ole business
has been transacted. There has
been no vitality impsrtant or starts
ing legislation thus far. Most of
the matters that have been acted
upon are of minor Importance.
AS was anticipated, there has
been no radical or gallery lsgis-
'ation, and 1t docs not appear that
there is likely to be, although it
Is pending. The most important
work, from a Legislative stand
point, of the week, was the dis.
position of all of the pending sles-
lions, 1t was tho longest and the
hardest days work of the session.
The chief, and about the only un-
0sual, interest was manifest in the
elections for positions on the
state board of control. 1t has
been many a day since there has
been even approximately the in
tsrsst that was shown ia the
recent elections. For days and
for weeks there was a constant
electiens.ring for the few posi-
items. All of the candidates were
upon the field and gave their psr-
soaal attention to the details of
tho campaign. The old or in
cum bsnt State board of control
stoed together for reelection and
that added materially to th.
chances Of re election.
With one s1csption-a college
trustss-svsry incumbent who
offered was re- elected.
NO FACTIoNAL LINES.
One of the significant phasss
of oil Of the elections was that
there was an absolute and con
spicuous absence of the old time
factionsl spirit. 1t was not even
whispered that . man belonged At
one time to tho Reform, Conser-
vatlvs or straighteut element.
No one seemed to think that there
was any difference whether . nan
belonged to one faction or another
and the fact of the matter it is
doubtful if NEST Of the members
even now know what sort Of an
site" either of tho new Judges
were. Hew wonderful has been
the change Ia the last ten years!
THE WAR ON THE TRUSTS.
The greatest interest Just now
seems to centre in the corporation
or trust fght. This is evidently
the case, to = large extent, be-
cause Of the lack of something else
to talk about. Yesterday offered
= field day On the Tatum rssslu-
tien to Investigate the probable
cost and feasibility Of establish
ing fsi tilizsr plant and many
are Of the opinion that this will
Offer tho sum total of what will
bs done on tho subject during the
present session. Some argue that
they are not disposed to spend
good money IN expenditures that
they do net think will result in
substantial good and Others be.
lievs ths State just now unprs.
pared to make the experiment Of
establishing . csnplsts and costly
plant.
THE CODE IS THE LAW.

were relieved in very short order

result in an unending amount of
trouble has happily been ever

Jews Protest.

The Jewish rabbi at Spokane ha, wit
ten letter to the public school author;-
ties demanding that any reference to
Christ in the Christmas exercises be cut
out. DR.. Beach, the rabbi saws:
"The public schools must be kent free
from any religious faint" he said yester.
day. They are to instruct the children
intellectually, not to instruct them in re.
ligious or sectarian matt ers. Christmas
Is properly a sectarian festival in which
those who reject the divinity of Christ
have nothing to do. Songs, recita,ions
and the like which center around the
legends of the miraculous birth Of the
Savior should not be tolerated in our
public schools.
ut is true that many Jews have merry.
making and giftgiving at the yuletide.
They do SO with the id. Of coufor minp
to the customs of their Gentle friends
and for the purpose of pleasing the little
ones. But there is nothing religious in
the Santa Claus myth. 1t dates back to
Europe and there is nothing sectarian
about it. What we object to in our pub
lie schools is to have the Christian re.
ligion given prominent part in the ex.
ercises of the day"
In 1899 protest was made by other
societies concerning the reading of the
Bible in public schools. The matter was
referred to the attorney general who gave
an opinion that Bible reading was relig-
ious teaching, that it did not tend to
improve and unity the school system, be.
cause there were those in the schools who
did not believe in the Bible, and others
who did not believe in the King James
| version.
President Floyd l.. Daggett, Of the
board Of education says: II do not be
lieve the position of our esteemed rabbi
we'll taken. A reference to Christ in
Christmas exercises is not in any way
sectarian. 1t is the life of the subject.
No matter what we think of Christ as a
divinity, as man he is worthy of emula-
ton. and no better example can be put
before the child, be he Jew or Gentle
than the perfect life led by Jesus Christ
while on earth.'
The constitution of the state of Wash.
iugton, article /, section II, provides
mo public money or property shall be
appropriated for or applied to any re-
ligious worship. exercise or instruction
or the support of any religious establish
ment."

BID irrigation Scheme.

The Salt Lake Tribune gives the fol-
lowing details of big Idaho deal now
pending.
,gsy.other big deal which contemplate
the expenditure Of $1,000 900 and the
reclamation Of 10000 acres of fine agri-
cultural land in Idaho. Is pending in this
city, with every prospect that it will be
consummated within the next few days.
The principals to the deal are the Twin
Falls Land and Water company, Of (which
S. B. Miner and Frank Knox are the
leading men, on the one side. and F. H.
Buhl Of Sharon, Pa, and his associates,
on the other. Mr.. Buhl and other CAPT.
talists associated with him. if the deal
goes through. will dam the Snake river
at Twin Fails and turn the water out
upon the land on both sides of the river
at that point by means Of numerous
canals and bitches and in this way open
100000 acres offine land 10 settlement.
The preliminary survey Of the PROPOSE
ton is now being made by the engineers
Of the eastern capitalists, and if the re-
port is favorable the deal will be closed.
The Twin Fails Land and Water COM
pany has been in existence for some
years past. It has Z capital stock of Ioo,-
600 shares Of the par value of 81 each.
The object Of the organization is to re-
claim 100000 acres Of arid land on the
Snake river near Twin Falls. The land
was set aside for irrigation under the
Carey act, and it will be thrown open to
settlement by the company as soon as the
water can be secured and distributed.
BY the terms of the deal now pending,
Mr. Buhi and his associates are to get 60
per cent Of the stock Of the Company.
and S B. Miner and Frank Knox, it is
understood. will retain the balance.
The cost Of damming the Snake river
at the point indicated, together with the
cost OF conveying the water over the land
on both sides of the river is placed by the
engineers at 81 100000. If the report Of
the engineers proves to be satisfactory
Mr.. Buhl vii! finance the project. All
the preliminaries of the deal have been
worked out and the closing now awaits
only the report Of the engineers.
The negotiations leading up to the
deal have been conducted by Walter G.
Filler and Mr.. Buhl and his associates
The matter has been left largely in his
hands, and it il assumed that if the deal
goes through MIR. Filler will be made the
general managesfor the company. Mr.
Bull, who has been in the city for some
days past, left for the east yesterday, to
await the findings Of the engineers, that
will be forwarded on the earliest possible
date by Mr.. Filler.
The vast importance Of this deal to the
people Of Idaho may be estimated by tn.
statement OF one Of the principals to til.
effect that if it goes through-and he ha'
no doubt whatever that it will-the goot
agricultural land of the state will b,
practically doubled.

the theory that Salmon always return to

Columbia will not fnd enough to supply
the demand. The fish are usually kept
In the hatcheries until they are about
two inches long. Then they are taken
out and taken far up to tue headwaterso Of

protect the little fellows they are turned
loose at night. They scatter before feed
