Professionally allotted for the con-
struction of the Minidoka project
in the valley of the Snake river.
The area to be irrigated is about

ton of dam fifty feet high and
572 feet long. which will convert a
canyon on the Snake river into a
reservoir thirty-fve miles long.
Gravity canals run on each side OF
the river and will cover 6SO,OC
acres. In addition to this 1900
horsepower will be developed at
the dam, which will be used for
pumping a supply of water te
irrigate about 53, 900 acres of land
lying above the gravity canals.
Fifteen huge pumps, each having {
| CapaCitv of about 10 second feet

Three os the posse were hit, but the shots used were small and no serious damage re- suited. The posse returned the fire and the negro was shot down. Several other shots were fired into him, killing him instantly.
 Five other negroes, Jim Smith Charles Smith. Mack Baldwin. Abe Bailey and Garrett Flood. who were the negroes that had defied the officers, were arrested and last night a crowd of men took them away from the guards and shot them tc death.
 It is reported late this evening that the Griffin boys have been captured. Il so it probably means that two more will be killed Everything at St. Charles al this time is quiet. but the town Is heavily guarded.

Little Rock. Ark, March @.-A special to The Arkansas Gazette from De Witt, Ark, says five negroes who had been arrested as a result of race troubles at st. Charles, were taken from the guard by crowd of men and shot to death.
 The victims were: Jim Smith. Charley Smith. Mack Baldwin. Abe Bailey, Gar rett Flood.
 This makes nine negroes who have been killed wdtnin the past week in the vi- cinity of St. Charles on account of the racial troubles.
 A few days ago a difffculty occurred over a trivial matter at St. Charles be- tween white man named Searcy and two negroes, Henry and Walker Griffin. Monday last the two negroes met Searcy and his brother in a store in St. Charles, and the difficulty was asrenewed. One of the negroes, without warning, struck both the Searcy boys over the head with table leg. rendering them unconscious and fracturing their skulls. one to such an extent that he may die.

After reciting the law of contempt. the committee report says:
 "Manifestly the case of o'Neal was not within the act. The offense was not committed. The conclusion Is that in this case a citizen of the United States was unlawfully condemned to prison"
 The report deals with the 'sTunnison case" last It says:
 The evidence established the fact that Judge Swayne reappointed B. c. Tunni- son commissioner of the United States after a trial in his court in which Tun- nison as prosecutor had been successfully impeached as a witness.
 ~The evidence also establishes that the members of the bar at Pensacola, Fla. and elsewhere in the district, and suit ors in the United -,ates Court are of the opinion that Tunnison has the power to exercise undue influence over Judge swayne and that he does exercise such influence. To such an extent does this belief prevail. that lawyers advise their clients to employ Tunnison in their bus mess as the best and only way to suc- cess in Judge swayne's court. The tes- timony satisfies the committee that Tun- nison is dishonest man: also that he Is endorser on note of Judge Swayne that has been renewed for seven successive years in the Pensacola Bank"

 The friends of the Southern through fast mall scored another victory today when an effort was made by it's oppon- ents to eliminate the item from the post office appropriation bill by moving for it's recommittai to the committee for consid- eration with instructions to strike out. ]" The motion was put by Representative Moon, who has led the fight in opposition to the subsidy. The motion was defeated by vote of 114 to 10e. Today's vote dis closed that the opponents of the item have been industrlously at work making converts to their way of thinking since the adoption of the item yesterday; and that they were sure to. make a better showing today on the motion to recom- init than they succeeded in doing yester- day on the motion "strike out"
 This was the closest call the subsidy has yet had. excepting when defeated outright in the Honsa AoEns years { 10. The friends Of the measure feel no un- easiness about It's fate in the Senate now that It has been agreed to by the House.
