The Recital

Miss Egleston's piano forte recital last
Friday night, at the opera house. was list
en- ed to attentiveIy by the music lovers of
Caldwell who gave ample evidence of their
apprecia ton by prolonged applause and
numerous encores, Those who had never
heard the young lady before were surprised
to find such genuine talent in so small a
place, and those Who had not heard her for
few years were delighted to note that her
progress was even greater than expected,
Notwithstanding the early promise of ex-
ceptional musical genius She had but
touched the opening chords of Bach, AL,
.egro movement from Italian Concerto,
when it was realized that no trace of the
amateur was to be expected in her per-
formances. AS she progressed from one
number to another OF the repertory her
personality became more marked and it
was felt that she was not only renderin z
with wonderful technical skill but inter-
preting bringing out the soul of the mu-
sic. The beauty of her performance was
that she felt Her own emotions respond
ed to the musical ideas and were transferr-
ed to the instrument, imparting that indie
scrlbable something which speaks to the
listner and thrills. 1t would be difficult to
determine whether it is in power or delica-
cy that she shows greater excellence, but
in our opinion, she is most effective in del
icate coloring, especially in soft and path
etic passages. She speaks more to the
heart than the imagination. You feel but
do not think. You are lifted up and de-
pressed. Your emotions move from con-
dition to condition, and you do not know
exactly why, nor would you risk breaking
the charm to make an inquiry. 1t is need
less to speak of Miss Eglestonss acquire
ments in the way of musical education.
They are sufficiently brilliant, Over and
above that is the great fact that she is a
MUSICIAN. She understands the language
of music, and interprets with feeling and
in telligence the messages which the great
er composers sought to convey through the
medium of melody and harmony.

and government aid cannot be
thrust on community without the
consent of the land owners, or
enough of them to make business
proposition. Amy person having
sufficient supply of water for irri-
cation would of course stay out of
the organization. The purpose of
the government is. either to supply
water for lands not now irrigated
or to supplement the supply for
lands not having a full So oply.
The owners of such lands if they
desire government aid must signi-
fy their willingness to enter into
contract to repay the actual cost of
the benefits received and must or
ganize for the purpose of dealing
with the government.
2. The present organizations
where the control is in community
ownership will not be wiped out
and vast merger or water trust
formed in their place The pres
ent organizations will still run their
own systems, and distribute the
water through their own canals.
They need deal with the larger Or
ganization only in receiving the in-
creased supply that may be devel-
oped by the government works.
That is, the central organization
would deliver to such canal system
the pro rata amount of reseryoired
water or water that may be devel-
oped from other sources, and it will
rest with the ditch company to dis
tribute it to the proper users. ,f
5. Priority of rights and the adj
ministration of the State law will
in no wise be interfered with Sec.
of the National act is explicit ON
this subject:
Sec. 8 That nothing in this act shall be
construed as affecting or intended to affect
or to in any way interfere with the laws of
any State or Territory relating to the con-

We believe that the matter is of
such vast importance in fi1rthering
the interests of all southwestern
Idaho that it is worthy our most
earnest thought and best endeavors
to bring it about and we hope that
the subject may be approached, not
in the spirit of criticism, but with
the determination to bring about
practical results that work injustice
to none and bring the largest possi-
bic development of our community.

water to be dealt out by the acre? Is the
acre the unit of measurement Of water
If SO, wish to find some one that can in
form me how many acres Of water passed
out Of the canyon of the Boise River dur
ing the irrigation season of 1903.
As I understand it the cubic foot is the
unit and forms the basis of all measure
ments. IF the cubic foot should, and in
fact must. be used, justso long as the acre
is used and man pays no more for water
when he draws three or four acre feet for
each acre he irrlgates, than when he only
draws just what is necessary to irrigate his
land, we will be short of water, and men
will be eternally wanting more water, and
these same men if they had to pay for ev-
cry cubic foot or water that was turned out
to them would try to economize. And
don't you forget it,
But | think I hear an echo, and it sounds
like the voice of the President of the Board
of Directors of the Pioneer Irrigation Dis
trict This will all be adjusted when we
get plenty of water" 1t is when water is
short that we need the iron hand; and at
all times the lesson of economy. During
the season of 1903, we had superintend-
ant, six ditch riders and ar engineer with
little or nothing to do. and the water not
measured. II is enough to make a preach
er bow his head and say "Let us pray"
And for fear the Directors and the peo-
pie generally may not know what Mr..
Wiley had to say on this point in his re-
port to Mr.. R. M. Gwinn, Chairman of the
Committee for Irrigation Districts, 1 will
give it to you here's MANY cities, within
the past 10 years, have found themselves
confronted with snortgage of water. All
the cheap sources Of supply had BET n fully
utilized and any further increase involved
the construction of large aqdeducts and
great reservoirs. with an increased chalg
for all the water furnished. AS temper
ary expedient some have resorteJ to the
use of IN ters and charge only for the vol
ume furnished. AS result, these cities
find they have an abundant supply of wa
ter, and the people find that their water
bills are less than eyer before"
The meters have taken the place of
aqueducts and reservoirs, by shutting off
the waste that had been supplying the
sewers at the expense of the water pipes ~

A Huge Project.

Engineer w. H. Schenck, who
for number of years has made
systematic study of practical irriga-
ton, and who is in charge of the
Owyhee Ditch and Reservoir Com
pany's works in Owyhee county
was in town Tuesday. In speak
ing with a representative of THE
TRIBUNE, he said: up to the
present we have sold $4,000 of
stock and confidently expect that it
will reach $12o, 900 before the end
of next week. This is as much
stock as we desire to sell at pres
ent." This company is composed
of prominent Caldwell business
men. Mr.. Schenck is competent
engineer and he thinks the project
feasible. If successful the enter
prise will reclaim thousands of
acres of land which at present bare
ly sustain a dozen coyotes. The
land is fertile and with a sufficient
supply of water will sustain large
population.

A Big Project

Preliminary steps were taken
last week looking to the establish
ment of a. broom factory at Cald-
well. Several of our business men
met and discussed the proposal of
Messrs. Howard and Merritt.
These gentlemen propose to estab-
lish a factory at this point provid-
ed the people of Caldwell will furn-
ish convenient and suitable site
and give bonus of 10 acres of
land for an experiment station.
The factory is TO cost between 8
and 10 thousand dollars and will
employ IS artisans at first. The
size of the factory and the number
of men employed will be increased
as fast as conditions demand. It is
the purpose of the gentlemen to put
in a brush and mattress factory as
soon as practical. In speaking
with a representative of THE TR1B-
UNE, Mr.. Howard said: "This will
be profitable industry for the far
mers. Broom corn can be easily
raised in this vicinity. The crop
should averoge one-third of a ton
to the acre and the price paid in
the eastern markets is $21o per
ton."
The gentlemen want 600 acres of
land sowed to broom corn. AL
ready 900 have been contracted for.
This is very promising, in view of
the fact that no determined effort
has been made to interest farmers
in the industry. In our next issue
will appear an article read by Mr..
Howard before the Farmers Insti-
tute, in which he expresses his
views of the practicability of broom
corn culture in Canyon county.

Mr.. Schenck Wants a Square Deaf.

EDITOR TRIBuNE-Much has been said in
The TRIBUNE to enlighten the people of the
Pioneer Irrigation District as to what has
been done, from time to time, and gener-
ally timely and good, and with one excep-
ton can endorse the airing given the en-
gineers. 1t is quite the proper thing, and
too, these conditions are just what we had
a right to expect. The directors have been
exceedingly slack. They have done any
old thing, or nothing, as seemed to suit
them. But even that would give Mr.. He'd
den poor excuse to say to a subordinate,
"Giye Mr.. Carter all you conscientiously
can"
OF course, Mr.. Hedden had right to
expect if Mr.. Carter came before the Board
of Directors of the District with lip hung
down, looking sad and sorrowful, that they
proud purse, would dish up bountifully to
Mr.. Carter.
1t is but fair to presume that man will
be as slack as the men who employ him.
To say nothing about the original plan
or how it was brought about, what was
done, or how it was done, or how the work
is being executed, or whether it is being
done at all or not, there is one thing that
seems evident: The funds of the District
are used up, and the work that should
have bean done according to the original
plan, either left undone or run the people
deeper in debt.
The people were either buncoed by Mr.,
Wiley IN his estimates or by Mr.. Hedden
in his estimate or classification; if not in
tn ese, where must we look for the discrep-
ancy. There is not a man so far as
know that would say that the Directors
wilfully misappropriated the funds of the
people. But there is one thing they can say,
and say it now: There has been little or
no attempt to establish system of water
distribution, or water measurements. One
man has been allowed to take all the water
he wished, while another was forced to go
without. No account of these things were
kept, but the man who got but little water
is expected to pay just as much for water
per acre as the man who got more than he
needed. Is this thing to continueP Is the

W0OLLEY IS
APPOINTED
Aftera Bitter Fight Having
Been Made on Him

SHOCK tnaE QrOVe 1t lunanCy. Fail
ing to establish its charge that Mr..
Woolley was a Mormon bishop;
falling to show that he was the
cause and the BENEFICIARY of legis-
lative deal; failing to get respectable
popular support in its anti Mormon
fight; failing of decent encourage
ment in its attacks on Hepburn,
Gooding, French and Standrod, it
finally resorted to charges against
Mr.. Woolley's personal character,
raking up some old, almost forgot
ten and long discredited yarns a.
bout an unsuccessful business enter
prise ofMr. Woolley's. John Lemp's
revenue stamps, and a money order
romance with the postmaster of
lewiston.
The opposition to Mr.. Woolley
finally succeeded in kicking up fuss
enough to induce Presidedt Roose-
velt to make personal investiga-
tion, which he did, and no one, in
his senses. will doubt that he did it
honestly and thoroughly. The re-
suit is complete vindication of Mr..
Woolley and his reappointment.
All of which is eminently creditable
to the President. fairness and in
tegrity. 1t is proper to say that
Senator Hepburn, Congressman
French, National Committeeman
Standrod and State Chairman
Gooding never for one moment
wavered in their support of Mr..
Woolley. Their loyalty is commen-
dable, and will win them friends and
admirers all over the State. There
was, however, more in the contest
than the personal success or failure
of Mr.. Woolley. The fight was in
its essence oil The nature of a fact
ional struggle for supremacy. The
lines were not openly defined. but
those who are acquainted with the
personal afinities and pref udices
which lie at the root of political
grouping may readily trace them.
There naturally will be much spec
ulation as to the Republican party.
There is no question but that it
will be- as>for as it goes, entirely
wholesome. The discipline, to
those who thought they were
mightier than the Republican Or
ganization, will be severe, but not
any too much so.
There is little element of immac-
ulate greatness, mostly domiciled
in Boise, that has to be taken down
and spanked at regular intervals to
keep it within reasonable bounds,
and the present chastisement is no
more severe than that which has
been administered on many previous
occasions with highly beneficial re-
suits.
