OF DIRECTORS
0f the Pioneer Irrigation
District on Tuesday,

AnC noaIo OF directors met in
regular session 10 o'clock, a. m,
Aug. 4, 1903, and transacted the
following business: Mr.. H.. A.
Grltlths who had taken a contract
to do certain work on the extension
of the Caldwell Canal, reported
that he had already exhausted
about four times the contract price,
$27.o and the work was not vet
completed. He proposed to donate
what he had paid and pay the bal
ance due on contract, some $I3. SO,
if the Directors would complete the
work and let him off. It was so
agreed.
Mr.. William Drury complained
that rs acres of his land was not
receiving water and probably could
not be watered without putting a
check in the main Phyllis canal.
This the superintendent was unwil-
ling to do. A. committee of the
Board, Messrs Flora and Galloway
was appointed to investigate and
ascertain what relief could be given
in this case.
Mr.. Carlson complained of being
charged with water for 3 lots,
whereas he irrigated only one and
fraction. Mr.. Cowen, watermas-
ter of Nampa, explained the error
and the matter was settled by Mr..
Carlson paying for two lots, which
was agreeable.
Mr.. Lesser appeared and made a
plea for more water, stating that
his fruit crop was just maturing
and that it was especially Important
that extra water should be applied
at this time. The superintendent
was instructed to make every posi-
BILE effort to supply orchards. Mr..
Lesser also complained of unequal
distribution between himself and
Mr.. Obstarszyzkie, the matter was
referred to the Superintendent.
Mrs. Maloney appeared and COM
planned of $50 damages done to her
meadow by virtue of break in the
Ten Mile fume. The board ap.
pointed Messrs Flora and Galloway
a committee TO investigate and re-
port.
Mr.. Schenck, on behalf of the
West Caldwell Irrigation Associa
ton, complained of improper dis
tribution. Taken under advisement
Mr.. J. D. Isenberg asked for 6
refund of $40 penalty on de
ilnxuent tax improperly paic
by him to the treasurer. 1t was
granted.
In the matter of taxes on Stat
Lands: The Secretary having cor
responded with the State Lane
Board on the subject, and receiving
an expression of opinion therefor
to the effect that the State could no
be held for back taxes, the Secretar,
was instructed to communicate witt
the officers OF all other Irrigation
Districts in which there nigh
be State lands, and invite SAT-
Districts to join with the Pic
neer Irrigation in securing coun
sci and making a demand upon tn
State. There are between 2oo'
and 5000 acres of State land in thi
District.

trict bylaws was amended by add

The grade this ditch was run on
was much too light for any laterals
being only .o3 to 100 feet, or 10
inches per mile. This is the same
grade the main Phyllis canal is run
on from the head to Five Mile, and
would give such slow current it
would be impossible to maintain
head of water suficieat to make
the necessary velocity to keep moss
and weeds from growing. At the
point where the new work was
started the grade was raised ~
inches, this would make dead water
for nearly quarter of mile, in
the old ditch, before starting on the
new work.
The summary of this report is
that the ditch has too light grade
all the way from where it is taken
out of Indian Creek to its lower end
to make it of very much value for
the District. Yours truly,
EDWARD HEDDEN.

against, or the superintendent, or
both as in his judgment seems ad-
visable, stating the nature of the
complaint, and advising that unless
satisfactory adjustment can be made
with the party complaining, then
action will be taken as otherwise in
this section provided" -. -~ 4.
: The claim of the Settlers Canal
Co., Limited, for services of man
attending to water loaned the Dis
trict, was disallowed. The Board
held that the District received no
water from the Settlers.
The Secretary was instructed to
publish advertisement calling for
bids to construct Caldwell High
Line and complete enlargement of
Phyllis. See notices elsewhere in
this paper. =" 3
Engineer Hedden was instructed
to have the independent Telephone
Company reduce its proposition to
writing and close the deal. 1t is
understood that this company will
stretch wire to headgate if District

also be made at residence of Supt.
James. Particulars will appear

taken out would be classified as
solid rock, and need powder to re-

All Fishermen Should Watch For

On Left Side.

Anyone finding o salmon with the fig
ures 1901 stamped amldships on LIS port
side coming up the Columbia this sea-
son will do more TO upset the theories
Of an Imposing array OF scientific men
than nny fisherman has ever done be-

The reason IL this: Superintendent
Brown, who Ia In charge OF the state
hatchery on the Snake river. last Mo-
vember stamped 200 male salmon as
described above, and carefully turned
them out after the spawning process
had been completed placing them below
the racks 10 that they would have ev-
cry opportunity OF returning safely to
the sea. Now II In the unanimous and
firm belief OF all fishery experts that
salmon after spawning never reaches
the sea again. and In consequence,
should one Of these 200 marked fish be
taken here. all the theory will be bust.
