Catholic to deprive himself of general
literature by forming the Catholic
list habit" serves neither the church
nor his own mind.
In 1860, with the sanction and
blessing of the holy see, certain Eng
fish Catholics under the patronage of
the cardinal archbishop of Winchester
and the English, Irish and Scotch
hierarchies, founded the st. Anselm's
society, the chief aim of which is the
selection of on-Catholic books for
Catholic reading. The late Professor
George E. Hardy made a list of Five
Hundred Books for the Young mainly
non-Catholic. Mrs. Margaret Mooney
of the Albany, n. Y, Normal college,
contributed a list of Catholic and nom
Catholic works for the young to Mcsh-
er's Magazine January, 1899 The
catalogue of the Cathedral library in
New York contains a broad list of
works priced by every one and unob-
jectionable to Catholics.
That newness, however, and Catholic
authorship, are not the only illogical
restrictions which readers may place
upon their choice is obvious enough
from the titles of textbooks divers and
sundry. American literature" What
is it? Is there any reasonable signifi-
canoe, for instance, to q classification
which should call Bret Harte and Har-
old Frederic American" authors, when
they wrote chiefly in London? English
literature" is not so narrow and may
be convenient for the purposes Of the
class room, but with TRANSACTIONS avail
able of all important works of general
literature from every tongue. what
clear-headed reader determined upon
making himself a cultivated member of
society, would otherwise than browse
among all the books there are?
There is in the Boston public IL
brary, number 6129.32, a little book
six inches by four with seventy-six
pages, which contains a descriptive
catalogue of books. 1t omits Newman,
Wiseman, Azarias and others (Aristo-
tie, for instance), but it is worth own
ing, because it has a good title. 1t is
called Books of All Time" From
Addison to Thomas Bailey Aldrich,
from Bacon to Charlotte Bronte; Ger
vantes, Goethe, Dante. Virgil. Thomas
Aquinas, Homer, King David, Angus
tine, Plutarch: is anything too good?
Probably 100 titles would cover the
pieces of writing which an educated
man (college-bTe or self-bred) abso-
lutely must know. At one book a week
this means two years. Is there any
body who can afford to put off for an
other winter the perusal of those 100
books?- The Republic. Boston.

GatbcIic$ and tbe
GbOIee Of Books

Fifteen years ago the Rev. ]. f. Y.
O'Conor, 5. J.. then professor of poetry
at Georgetown university, in a discus
sion Of books and reading, inquired
Would it be untrue or unkind to say
that catholics have not attended TO
literature as they should?"
So far as this neglect came from a
care of The more necessary, the more
important and higher duties of life,
rather O'Conor admitted no blame
should be attached but he suspected
That often real literature was spurned
Tor trash. The most sensational and
useless authors" he declared, from
dlme novels to Wilkie Collins and
CHARLES Reade, win be devoured, but
meantime the great masters of Eng

books of all time, the prime necessities
of life. If Catholics are to acquit
themselves creditably in the new era
of liberation and good feeling, when
Americans of all creeds greet one an
other cordially in the mart, in the po-
litical conference, and in the forum OF
newspaper discussion, as well as in the
more ornamental functions of life, is
there any mental equipment, any en-
richment of thought, too good for
Catholics?
Father O'Conor's warning against
trash-necessary when he uttered 1t,
and alas! necessary, no doubt. yester-
day, today and forever, gains its force
in the main from the tendency of hu-
man nature to cape with bullying eyes
at whatever is in plain sight instead Of
diligently seeking those things which
are best worth having. People read
new books because they are new, or
because they are advertised noisily.
When an excuse is offered it is that
they desire to keep UP with the
tirnesl" In order to show how absurd
this is one needs, only suggest that if
these readers would begin at the be-
ginning of the great literatures they
would find themselves 5000 years be
hind the times, and the new novel for
which they so feverishly rush would
not, in its proper order, be reached IN
this life.
Nor is the new-book fad the only
Illogical and shallow restriction pT
which readers suffer themselves to be

letter of the third plenary council,

The big dam will be constructed
TWENTY three miles above Shoshone
falls. 1t is more correct to say that
three dams will be built, for two lofty
islands divide the river into three
streams at this place, and these two
islands will be Joined with each other
and with the main land by artificial
bulwarks against the water The river
is 1915 feet wide at this point. The
dams will be ffftyfour feet high, and
will raise the level of the river thirty
eight feet. There will be a spillway
provided at one side so that the wa
ter, even in fioodtime, will never pour
over the top of the dam.
Both canals will leave the river at
this point Together they will furnish
3.40O cubic feet of water per second,
of which 5000 feet is intended for the
land and 400 feet for the towns. The
larger of the canals, which will supply
the land to the south of the river,
will be eighty feet wide at the bottom
and 30 feet wide at the top carry
ing a constant flow Of ten feet of wa
ter.
How Land Was Secured.
Under the provisions of the Carey
act the the state of Idaho acquires the
land from the national government and
sells it to the irrigation company The
company agrees to put in the neces-
sary irrigation works to furnish water
to the land and to sell it to settlers
at a fixed price in tracts not exceed
ing 100 acres each.
The two townsites and the water
power will be handled apart from the
irrigation scheme. There will be a town
at the dam named Miner but it is ex-
pected that the principal town will be
the one called Twin Falls and located
between the natural Twin falls and
Shoshone falls. little higher UP the
river. This will be the terminus of
the projected railroad. The water
power will be developed on an immense
scale and transmitted electrically.
When the canal is under way vast
amount of money will be spent in adj
vertising the land in the east and in
bringing settlers to locate there. 1t
is expected that through this agency
alone thousands of people will be added
to the population and millions of dol
lars to the wealth of Idaho and the
entire country will be tributary to
Salt Lake.

Vast Area of Land.

vast area OF Land.
The vast area of land which is to be
made productive by allaying it's thirst
lies On both sides of the Snake river,
| in the vicinity of Shoshone falls and
Twin falls. The portion on the south
side comprises 1000, and that on The
north side II, 900 acres. The average
altitude is 4,O00 feet and the climate is
mild. The land includes the tract set
aside a couple of years ago for a ma
tional park by the secretary of the in
terror. This was done to preserve the
natural beauty of Twin falls and the
magnificently weird surrounding seen
cry.
After the land had been Withdrawn
from entry, the secretary was persuad-
ed that the ground was too valuable
| for agricultural purposes to be thus
taken away from. settlers, and it was
restored to it's original status. The
present company secured ii under the
provisions of the Carey land law.
In this area is some of the richest
grain and fruit land in Idaho. Mr. Per
rine's famous Blue Lakes ranch, which
has produced prize-winning fruit for a
decade, lies in the heart of this region.
For his 500 acres Mr. PeTrine was re-
Gently offered $4,000. and he is some
thing like fifty miles from a railroad.
The building of the contemplated rail
road into this locality will make Gull
tivated land still more valuable.
Mr. Perrine received 81, 800 for the
product of an eighty-five acre orchard
last year, and got $50 tons of alfalfa
from a twenty-five acre field. The soil
is silt mixed with decomposed lava,
which is especially well suited to fruit
and grain. From five to 200 feet below
the surface is a solid underlying stra-
tum of lava.
Mr.. Perrine first saw the POSSIBLE
ties of the power and of the land
reclamation in this vicinity. He inter
ested Colonel Miner, A. X. Steunen
berg, brother of Ex-Governor FraNk
Steunenberg of IDAHO and j. H. LoA
ell of Roswell. Ida, who also became
largely interested. The work on the
first survey was begun in 1893. Three
wears ago the Twin Falls Land & Wa
fer company was organized with cap
ital of 500, 000, divided into 81 shares,
and an agreement was reached with the
state land board of Idaho to reclaim
this vast tract of land under the Carey
act.
The actual commencement of the
work dragged for several reasons. Last
Jlly Colonel Miner bought out some of
the shareholders. giving him $1,000
shares, Mr.. Perrine 10000 shares and
Frank Knox 100 shares. The details
of the plans for financing the project
have not been worked out, but most
of the money will be raised by bonds
