contained some interesting state
ments. He showed that the pres

While many comparisons have
been made in the public mind be-
tween the present and the last
legislature, particularly with re-
ference to the house, none stands
out stronger than that with re-
spect to speakership. Two years
ago the democrats, as part of the
reprehensible deal that carried
with it more iniquitous legislation
than was ever before placed on our
statute books, including the out
rageous legislative reapportion-
ment, placed one Glen Mckinley
in the speakers chair. Not only
was he incompetent, but there
were many evidences that he was
a great deal worse: while his record
outside the legislature was such
as to bring additional reproach on
the entire body. In comparison
the republican speakee, j. Frank
Hunt, stands out like bright star
He is man, a man all over, fair,
honest, straightforward, earnest
ictuated only by one desire and
hat to give the people the legisla-
ion that will best promote their
interests. Mr.. Hunt has made
most favorable impression as the
officer of the house among
III classes, irrespective of politics.

FACTS OF INTEREST
Concerning the Proposed Work on
the Twin Falls CanaI-r1ust
Be Completed in Year

Following is a brief description o.
the proposed work on the Twin
Falls canal which appeared in the
Statesman last week:
The greatest irrigation project
ever undertaken in Idaho, and one
of the greatest in the United States
is now financed and well under
way by the Twin Falls Land &
Water Company. The plans con-
template the reclamation of 271 900
acres of fertile land in TIE valley
of the Snake river, beginning at a
point twenty-five miles above Twin
Falls, where a dam, where a dam
which will hold the turbulent tor
rent of the Snake, will be built.
The dam will be of heavy mas
onry and will cost 100000
fortune in itself. A canal from
above the dam on the north side
OF the river will be excavated
twenty-five miles long For the
first fifteen miles it will be twenty
five feet wide on the bottom and
the last ten miles it will be from
twenty down to ten feet wide and
will carry six feet of water the
entire distance. On the south side
a canal will be built capable of
floating a warship. 1t will be sixty
five miles in length, will be eighty
feet wide on the bottom at the head
and the water will be ten feet deep.
After the first thirty-five miles the
width will be lessened to sixty feet,
which will be gradually narrowed
to fifteen feet wide at the lower end
Of the waterway.
The plans contemplate over 500
miles OF laterals so that no man
owning a forty acre tract can be !
farther than a half mile from the !
permanent water supply. The |
as they branch out from
she canal will be larger than most
If the main canals in this state,
md will only grow smaller as other
aterals are taken out along their
course.
The irrigated and cultivated
lrea of Idaho is given at the pres
mt time at 100000 acres. 1t will
,e seen that the new district will
lmost double the cultivated area
f the state. The ideal climate of
he twin Falls district, taken in
onnection with the fertility of the
oil and its smooth, even suface,
lakes certain the rapid settlement
the entire tract. 1t is predicted
V conservative men that bustling ,
Ity of 5000 people will be built

ne head of the canal, within five
ears.

CHARGES ARE UNTRUE
1t VIII Be Seen by the Following
Table that the Democrats Had
No Cause for Howl.

y
busy one in the Idaho legislature.
No laws Of Importance were enacted
but several measures of interest to
the people were advanced towrrd
final action. One of the featres
of the week was the expose of the
manner in which the last (demo-
cratic) legislature grated" in the
manner of attaches 1t had been
been stated that only such at
taches had been employed as were
necessary to properly conduct the
business of the session. People
accepted the statement, for the
rank and file are always reasonable
in such matters and do not ask the
legislature to conduct its business
with a smaller force than is neces-
sary. Ever since the present ses-
sion opened the democrats in the
house had been barking at the re-
publicans on account of the alleged
extravaganza in the employ of
attaches. The majority paid no
attention to these yelpings for some
time. But the qowls were taken
up and reechoed in some of the
democratic papers, the editors of
which, however it is believed here,
were simply deceived by democratic
members of the Legislature. The
republicans decided to put stop
to it, and Representative jenkins,
leader Of the majority on the floor, !
began an investigation He went |
through the pay rolls of the pre-
vious house and found that, at
the same period two years ago the
democratic house was employing
twenty-five attaches, or five more
than are now employed in the re-
publican house, while before the
session closed the total number of
attaches in the democratic house
was twenty-nine. The following
shows the comparison strikingly:
