Typhoid At AImo.

The Salt Lake Tribune publish
es the following report OF Dr. Har-
dy Lynch on the typhoid situation
at Almo, Idaho. DIR. Lynch had
been at Yost, Utah, which is twelve
miles from Almo, to inspect the
typhoid fever reports from there;
"There is an epidemic of typhoid
at Almo, half of the population
(which is 1907 having had the dis
ease, and nine deaths have already
occurred. The sanitary condition
OF this place is very bad, and no
measures had been taken to check
the progress ef the disease, until
half the entire population was al
fected. At one time there were
not enough well people TO take care
of the sick. Medical men were then
secured, who traced the source of
infection 10 the drinking water sup
ply. Nurses were also secured,
and the typhoid is gradually disap-
pearing. owning to improved sani-
tary measures instituted by the
men"
Among the medical assistance
referred to in Dr. Linehe's report is
DIR. J. W. S. Emerson, who was re-

Owning to the tremendous traf
fic on the Oregon Short Line there
has just been rearrangement by
Supertendcnt Ed Manson of the
trainmasters and chef dispatchers
on the Idaho division, says the
Salt Lake Tribune. The circulars
were out yesterday and approved
by General Superintendent Buck
ingham. The chef improvement
aimed at is to relieve Trainmaster
t. j. Duddleston of some OF his
work, and the details OF the change
are as follows: A. B. Stevenson,
who has been chief dispatcher at
Pocatello, has been promoted to be
trainmaster at the same place for
the first, second and Wyoming
Western districts, vice Duddleston,
whose jurisdiction now includes
the PocatelIo yards, third, and
fourth districts, Wood River branch
and Boise branch.
0. H. Moody from, from KEN
merer. is made chief dispatcher at
Pocatello of the second, third and
fourth districts, Wood River and
Boise branches vice Stevenson, as
signed to other duties.
J.P. Folger succeeds Moody as
chief dispatcher at Kemmerer for
the first and Wyoming Western
districts.
All these men are tried Oregon
Short Line veterans, and their
friends will be glad OF the step up
wards in their work in the operat-
ing department.
As stated in detail few days
ago, the road has never had such
traffic during any month In. its his
tory. and its men, motive power
and equipment are taxed to the
limit to keep up with the rush. 1t
is thought if the present high re-
cord keeps up that there viii be a
chance for further promotions all
along the line OF this system, which
is rapidly forging to the front in
comparison with all Western sys-
tens.

In speaking of the government
irrigation project at Minidoka in
its Thanksgiving day special issue
the Pocatello Advance says:
The cost of the entire project
when completed will be pro-rated
per acre upon the land benefited.
Enough is now known to make it
practically assured that the land
will not exceed s25 per acre in cost.
This cost will pay the mainten-
ance fees of the canal and dam for
seven years. In other words, the
government will place the cost of
the land at such definite amount
and will also maintain the canals
and furnish the water absolutely
free for seven years, after which
time the settlers will have to pay
only the cost of actual maintenance
of course, will be very small.
Whatever the cost, the settlers
will be given ten years in which to
make payments without interest
md without maintenance costs as
indicated.

THAT 0. s. L CHANGE
The Much Advertised Change Of the
Main Line VIII Not Occur
In the Near Future.

For some time there has been an
attempt on the part of some perons
and publications to lead the public
to believe that preparations were
already under way to complete the
Minidoka & Southwestern railroad
the new branch OF the Short Line
which will tap the Minidoka and
Twin Falls irrigation tracts, from
Twin Falls City to Glenns. Ferry,
and make that the main line of the
Oregon Short Line, and thereby re-
duce the present main line from
Minidoka to Glenns Ferry 10 simp-
ly road for local traffic with the
status of branch line.
William Ashton of Salt Lake
City, chief engineer of the Oregon
Short Line, who was in Boise the
first of the week, in talking to
the Statesman made it quite ap-
parent that the Short Line had no
immediate plans for making a
change in the Minidoka-Gl Glenns
Ferry section of their main line
for number of years to come, fiat
all Here is the way the States
man gives the interview:
Mr.. Ashton reports that good
progress is being made on the
grading for the Minidoka & South
western branch line. He looks for
the grading to the river from Mini
doka to be nearly completed by the
last of the year. There would
probably be time enoz h~ stat
ed, for the road to be entirely COM
p}eted by spring, were it not for
the difficulty of laying rails and
getting a good, smooth roadbed |
during the winter months. He
said that feat could be accomplish
ed, under the proper circumstances
but it would be very difficult to Sc
cure satisfactory results and he in
that the completion OF the
railroad through the Minidoka and
Twin Falls reclamation tracts
might be delayed until next spring.
In speaking of the proposal to
extend the Minidoka line west
ward from its intended terminus,
70 as to draw more directly from
.he Bruneau territory, and rejoin
he present line at or near Glenn's
Ferry, Mr.. Ashton said it was his
understanding that the new road
would run through a very rich |
country and one which in a few
Years would become quite thiekly
populated. 1t would doubtless be
veil patronized as the years went
~, and at some time in the future
he territory might become so rich
S to demand q western outlet for
IS trade. In that event. it is pos
ible the published prophecy that
he Minidoka line was destined to ;
ecome the main line of the Oregon
hort Line might materialize

Halloween night came on last Mon
day and the sprites and witches made
the most of the event, but there was
not that rough house work that there
was year ago. Marshal Newton
kept busy and was on the track of
most of the gangs that were bent on
mischief and he headed off lot of
rough work. He came on to a trio of
young lads who were about to cut up
some pretty rough capers with private
property and he accompanied the
young lads to the lookup, where he
threatened to lock them up unless they
would promise to go right home and
go to bed. The boys accepted the
proposition very readily and they did
not break their promise to the mar
shall. There were q few innocent
tricks played, but this is always to
be expected on Hallowe'e zen night.
