Idaho Artesian Water.

Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Gibson of this
city are feeling very fortunate Just
now and have good cause to do so as
they now have three flowing artesian
wells on the desert land tract taken
up by Mrs. Gibson. which is located
on "Alkali," between Little and Big
Willow creeks. about 25 miles from
Payette. In the first well put down
an inch of artesian water was struck
at depth of 101 feet, in the second
four inches were struck at a depth
of 39 feet and in the third 15 inches
were struck at depth of 73 feet.
The casing of the third we'll is four
inches above the surface of the
ground and the water rises to a
height of ~ inches above the casing.
There Is 80 acres in the tract of land
and the striking OF this artesian wa.
ter for irrigating purposes will add
greatly to its value.-Payette Inde-

Judge Ward Pleascs rhcm.
(Lumberton Rohesonian.


Judge Ward has made a good inn
preston not only on the &oheson
county bar, but on 4 great number OF
its citizens who have attended court
during the past two weeks. He IS fair,
impartial, level-headed and his rul-
ings have been satisfactory. Our peo-
pie have learned to esteem him highly.
One noticeable effort of Judge Ward
is worthy of commentator. We re-
fer to his diligence in endeavoring
to clean up the cost docket of the
court. 1t is a well known fact that
this part of the docket is carried from
court to court and from year to year;
with fines, cost and penalties aeoumu-
lating which should promptly be
disposed of. 1t was his purpose to
see that all fines and costs now on
the docket should be paid before the
next term of the court and his eff
forts in this behalf will, we believe,
be productive of much good in this
direction.
