of The three main divisions of the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
leee at Starkyille-is an instrument
Of increasing power in the State and
a great factor in developing the skill
and intelligence of our boys. 1t
gives to the young men that train
ing and preparation which fits them
to take their places in the great in
dustrial army, and to plan and do
work that is necessary to develop the
resources and increase the wealth
and prosperity of the country.
The school of engineering en-
braces The departments CT mathe-
matics. mechanical engineering,
physics and electrical engineering,
civil and rural engineering, geology
and mining engineering, and offers
in each of the four great divisions
of engineering-mechanical, electri-
cal, civil and mininga thorough
course Of instruction, theoretical and
practical, in the scientific principles
and an introduction into the prac-
tice of the profession. The work in
the different departments is being
most carefully studied and systemat-
icallY planned by the engineering
faculty. The studies are so ar
ranged that each student carries on
the work of two engineering depart
ments in the junior and senior years,
and all engineering students have
identically the same work in the
freshman and sophomore years. The
method of instruction is by sys-
tematic lectures and the study of
suitable textbooks. Closely asso-
ciated with the theoretical instruc-
tion is regular. amount of practi-
cal exercises in the drawing room,
the field, and the laboratories and
shops attached to the different de-
partments. All engineering stu
dents receive the same instruction in
English, mathematics, chemistry,
ciyics and history, biology, and Mil
itary science and tactics. The work
is so planned and arranged that ev-
cry student in the college is reached
by some phase OF it. Besides the
regular four years course, there is
also two years practical course in
mechanical engineering and electri-
cal engineering.
The organization and working
force is as follows: B. M. Walker,
director and professor Of mathemat-
les; j. W. Fox, professor of civil
and rural engineering; Albert
Barnes, professor of mechanical en-
gineering: C. +. Ard, professor of
physics and electrical engineering;
W. n. logan, professor Of geology
and mining engineering; Charles

er: 7. NJ. Spinks, instructor in ma
chine shop; J. Il. McKell, instruct
or in wood shop; w. W. Freeman,
instructor in drawing; Fl. Il. Pig
ford, fellow in mechanical and cleo
trleal engineering.

Wyoming Side
Indian Trouble
Redskins Were Defiant. Sheriff
Ordered Them to Surrender,
But They Fired.

Cheyenne Wyo, Nov. 13.-In an in
terview this evening Gov. Chatterton
| made public the result of his investi-
cations made during his recent trip to
| central Wyoming, in regard to the re-
sponsibility for the Sioux outbreak
The Governor ascertained that short
ly before the fight it was reported to
Sheriff Miller at New CASTLE that a
band of Sioux Indians were not only IL
legally hunting game along the border
OF Weston and Converse counties, but
were also slaughtering the cattle of the
ranchMen. These reports were so au-
posse of six men and started in search of
the Indians, meeting them on the Dry
Fork of the Cheyenne river
When the officers first reached the
Indian camp the bucks We're out hunt
ing. Upon their return the Sheriff de-
manded their surrender Some of the
Indians were willing to come in, but
others We're not, the latter saying that
they were under Charley Smith, or
Eagle Feather, his Sioux name. Smith
became defiant when the Sheriff told
him that the Indians were violating the
law, and replied that Miller had not
men enough to take them.
He then ordered his party to break
camp. AS they started, the Sheriff and
h %lx
distance urging them to surrender and
submit to the law Smith refused and
the Sheriff retired and added five ranch
men to his party.
The Sheriff again overlook the In
dians ON Lightning creek the day after,
about sunset. Demand was made upon
[ the Indians to halt and surrender. This
was repeated three times. when the
Sioux opened fire. the officers replying
Immediately. The Indians fed az soon
as they saw that some of their party
| were shot
The Governor states that there can be
no question as to where the responsibility
lies The Indians were violating the
laws of the State of Wyoming, know
ingly and willfully, and the murdered
officers were martyrs to their duty.
The Governor declared that he would
insist on thorough trial, if for no other
reason than to vindicate the dead officers
and present their sacrifice in proper
light before the people.
This matter said the Governor,
has been noised all over the country,
and Wyoming, for the sake of its own
good name, must go the bottom of it,
and the Indians, if they are the ones
who did the killing, must meet with the
proper punishment.

THE sugar beet question has resolved
itself into dead beet question with the
farmers during the past week. ; This is
paragraph from the News editor.
| This is lie on the farmers. Last spring
this same fellow advocated Colorado
mob law to keep the laborer out of the
country. to the injury of the beet
growers, and the farmers have come to

Are Inspectisg Land
idaho Officials Pay Visit to
BlackfCot.

Blackfoot, Ida, Nov. 16.-Secretary
OF State Gibson, State Engineer Darling
ton and Messrs Skeens and Sweet of
the American Falls Canal and Power
company arrived Sunday and are today
engaged in inspecting the big tract of
land segregated under the Carey act
and sought to be reclaimed by the ditch
OF the American Falls company on the
west side Of Snake river
The latter company claims that the
canal has already cost $3.50, 900 and that
the total cost will be over 500, 600 AS
not over 10000 acres of the entire tract
can, be sold the proposition, at the
present price Of $l5 per acre is losing
one and they ask the State for per-
mission to raise the price to $50 and 1925
per acre. AS most of the land is being
sold 10 settlers from other States the
people of Idaho have but little interest
in the proposed raise.
Through this part of the State consid-
cradle interest has been manifested, and
there IS a strong desire TO see the pro-
position carried to speedy fruition A
refusal of the State board to grant the
company's request may cause another
tie-up IN the reclamation OF a splendid
agricultural territory.

CANAL MUST BE DUG
ROOScvelt'S First
Message.


| Washington, Nov 13.-For several
weeks President Roosevelt has had IN
preparation his annual message to Con
gress, to be presented at the opening of
the regular session on the first Monday
Of December. That part of the message
i'll which the President discussed the
negotiations between the United States
and the Government of Colombia for an
lsthmian canal treaty, it is said, was
completed about two weeks ago. Events
which have occurred on the lsthmus
and in this country since that time have
made it necessary for the President
completely to rewrite that part of the
message touching the canal negotia-
tions. In the opening sentence of his
discussion of the negotiations with
Columbia the President said:
COLUMBIA WANTED IT.
Il regret the report, that contrary
to all expectations, the Government of
the Republic of Colombia refused to
ratify the treaty for building canal
across the Isthmus Of Panama. Then
after stating that the treaty had been
negotiated at the earnest request Of the
Government of Colombia and sub
sequently was disapproved by the
Colombian Senate the President said
that the powers exercised by the United
States under the treaty of 1916 were so
large in the protection of transit across
the Isthmus that it sometimes had been
questioned whether it was necessary
now to obtain a treaty for the purpose
of building canal" Continuing, he
wrote
PRIVATE COMPANIES FAILED.
Reasonable time in the case Of such
an enterprise as this, an enterprise
which has been thought of for nearly
four centuries which has been planned
in detail and worked at for half a
will endure for ages and will change
the geography of hemisphere and the
trade routes of the world, must, of
course, mean whatever time is necessary
to convince ourselves that the course
we are following is wise and proper
UNITED STATES MUST DO IT.
1T seems evident that in matter
such as this we should finally decide
which is the best route, and if the
advantages Of this route over any other
possible route are sufficiently marked
we should then give notice that we car
no longer submit to triHing or insincert
dealing on the part Of those whom The
accident Of position has placed il
temporary contiol OF the ground through
which the route must pass; that il they
will come to an agreement with us il
straightforward fashion we shall il
return act not only with justice bu
with generosity; and that if they fail t.
come to such agreement with us w
must forthwith take the matter into ou
own hands"

pestilence Enterprises looking to the
development Of our last resources and
the establishment of profitable business
among cur people have been attended
with success. Tranquil relations be-
| tween employer and employed have
prevailed Those movements which
have for their object the elevation and
redemption OF men have been advanced.
Church, schools, social and civic pro
gless mark higher and better than evel

I part Of the person who caused the
trouble, as Mr.. Turton has private

The NEWSPAPER Press.

The Hoe double-sextupie printing
press is a veritable triumph of mechani-
cal art Each machine is really com
posed of two separate complete printing
mechanisms, each fed from three four
pase-wide rolls of paper The machin-
cry for the catering and folding of those
webs of paper is in the center between
the two sections Of the machine. Each
OF the two portions Of the machine is
composed of six parts Of cylinders
arranged with their a1les parallel, in
three tiers Of two parts each. They
print on both sides of three webs of
paper from separate rolls which are
each four pages wide. One of these
sections is so arranged that six sets
Of cylinders will print upon a single
web in coors and black, this web being
associated with the three webs from the
other portions in order to form a colored
cover Each section of the machine
may be operated independently, If
desired. There are twelve plate cyl
inders III the machine. each carrying
eight plates the size OF newspaper
page, and either stereotypes or cleo
trotypes may be used The ink is
applied to the plates by four form roller;
after having been thoroughly dis
tributed by means of vibrating rollers
and cylinders.
The immense press measures 30 fee
long, is feet wide, II feet high, and
weighs about 225, 900 pounds Th'
number Of parts of which it is composed
is approximately 1000
The capacity of the machine whel
printing all black from six rolls il
equivalent to l50, GOO four, six, or eight
page papers per hour. If the size of th
paper is increased to twenty-four page
the press will still print 1900 per hour
The three webs from each part OF tn
machine are led to the top of the folder
where they are divided along their cente
line into webs two pages wide, ant
then run down each OF the four form
by which they are folded along thei
centers. They are then led to cylinder
which cut them into page lengths ant
give them a fold across the page to hall
