NOW GET TOGETHER
Special Committee on RecIama
tion Work by Government
Makes Its Report.

The general committee of water users
in the Boise and Payette valleys met at
Nampa last Saturday evening and re-
ceiyed and adopted the report of the
special committee on organization. The
report Of the special committee is very
comprehensive and covers every detail
in connection with the progress made
towards inducing the government to
take up the work Of reclaiming 10000
acres Of land in the two valleys.
The report, in brief, is as follows: In
formulating plan of incorporation the
committee has been guided by the or
ganization that has been adopted in the
Salt river valley, which plan has receiv-
ed the approval Of the secretary of the
interior and under which work is now
progressing.
I'VE submit herewith copy of the
proposed articles and recommend that
the chairman appoint 25 to 30 per
sons to act as incorporators on behalf o
the water users.
"We also recommend that the follow
] ing named persons act as directors TO
the first year: ]. II. Lowell, ID. X
Hubbard, c. E. Paine, H. A. Partridge
A. r. Stalker, f. NJ. Kirkpatrick, Jes
Walling, A. J. Richards, A. j. How'd
Z A. J. Mitchell, Frank Steunenberg.
/ ''It is the expressed determination {
the government, and we believe right
fully, that the people themselves mus
take the initiaye in these questions an
1 the details Of organization must be take
up and decided by the people.
"As outlined in the recommendation
l of the director, the association will

( department in adjusting questions
right of way and determing question
that do not come purely within the scol
I OF the engineering department.
"In the opinion of the committee II
/ preliminary work will take year OF
ganized work and will include a study
/ the legal questions; the gathering
definite information as TO the needs

best means of supplying them; the C
rying out of correspondence, public d

"The preliminary estimate OF the gov
ernment engineers places the amount
that must he expended in the works at
81. 900 600. This amount, il is presumed,
will be expended in from three to five
years from the time OF commencing work
and with the engineers now in the field
it is hoped that so far as the government
is concerned the work OF construction
NAV be started next spring. In order

Holt Estate Again.

On the petition of John F.. Colburn,
with c. W. Ashford as his attorney,
Judge Gear has signed an order to
Henry Smith, administrator of the will
of Robert William Holt deceased, to
render a full account of the estate on
July 5, 1904, or show cause why not.
All persons interested in the estate
are also ordered to appear on the same
day and show cause, if any they have,
why a distribution of the estate should
not be made. The will was admitted
to probate on July 26, 1862, or about
forty-two years ago, and an attempt
of Colburn, as grantee Of two of the
devisees, to show that the probating
was null and void, also that Smiths
appointment as trustee was illegal,
has within the past few years been de-
feated in the courts.

HULA HULA SHOW
At ST. LOUIS FAIR

The Sunday Examiner of June con-
tains an illustrated page entitled
Queer Ladies you'll meet at the St.
Louis Worlds Fair in which a pic
ture of a Hawaiian hula girl appears
with the following explanatory item:
Yes, those are ladies splashing about
in the pond whose extremely meagre
costume would be shocking at Conev
Island or Asbury Park, but there, you
must remember, the interest is not
sociological, but anthropological What
would be the use of exhibiting queer
people forced to dress and behave them
selves as ordinary, undressing peo-
pie do? These ladies are the best
swimmers in the world-native Hawai-
ians. Unimpeded by unnecessary gar
ments, their brown limbs flash through
the water with the speed and grace of
fishes
After the swim you will see them
quite sufficiently clad in flowing white
and colored cotton draperies, their a.
bundant dark hair coiled about their
heads and adorned with wreaths of
flowers. Exceedingly amiable and
smiling they are.
The belle of the Hawaiian village is
Hula-Hula, a native Hawaiian dane
ing girl. Except for a short skirt of
some sort of grass. which gives her
hips the appearance of being matched.
her costume is mainly wreaths and
garlands of flowers. She even has
anklets of flowers. You will esteem
her for the poetry in her dance, which
wells an abandon which might other
wise remind you a little of the dances
in the Streets of Cairo
