ed; therefore, we may assume that,
in the Boise valley, at least, the de-
cree of the court, when it shall be
handed down, will establish a null
titnde of water rights that shall not
be disturbed. The adjudication
now in process will decree the
waters of the Boise river, not to in
dividuals, but to corporations, dis
tricts and association Of individuals.
To illustrate: The court will decree
to the New York canal company a
certain right, carrying certain per
per centage of the water of the
Boise river for certain period
of time; it will decree certain
other rights to the Ridenbaugh, the
Pioneer Irrigation District, the
Franklin Ditch Company, the Riv-
erside, the Sebree and many other
corporations, companies and as
sociations. To some of these, as
the old settler companies, will be
decreed first priority; to others,
second, third or fourth priority.
The .Ridenbaugh will get some
thing different, and not quite so
good as the Settlers, perhaps; the
Phyllis will get something different
from the Sebree, perhaps "a little
better, and SO it will go, a hundred
DEGREES, with a hundred various
values. 1t is proposed to bring all
these corporations. individuals, as
sociations, under one management

F. H. Newell, who is at the head

the Subject of Government aid for

Of the corporation to be empowered
to pass upon all matters relating to
the adjustment of rights to remove
all obstacles, and, finally, to assume
responsibility for paying back to
the government all the money ex-
pended on irrigation works. The
magnitude of such an undertaking
is scarcely comprehensive, especial
ly if it shall be attempted to main
tain the present status of water
rights. In the talks that have been
made, the idea has been encouraged
that, in the event of securing Gov

been the very close. .mouthed local
representative Of u closed -mouthed
company, composed Of close mouthsd
stock holders In the close m mOunthed
STANDARD OIL corporation. Since bis
assumption OF control of the Rnoanza
and the retirement therefrom Of j.
i. Hayes, no newspaper reporter has
ever been accorded the privilege OF
mn interview. Whatever WAS learned
about the mine under the Thatcher
management came from lips other
than official. II is u fact, however
that at the Bonanza, mn immense ore
shoot WAS opened. Thatcher never
ssid 80, neither did he deny. The
writer acquired the Information from
an employe OF the mine, who knew
what he was talking about.
When. this summer, the Bonanza
was closed, the pumps pulled and
the shaft permitted to fill, the writer
asked Manager Thatcher, who was
then convalescsnt from the effects Of
MI operation at Baker City hospital,

the company. II WAS refused
absolutely.

TRUST SUING
MONTE CRIS1o

An Everett, Washington, dispatch
says that the American Smelling Il
Refining company bat commenced
suit against the Monte Cristo Mining
L. Concentration company to recover
SlO,473.AO advanced vt various
times for the maintenance and opera
ton Of the mines at Monte Cristo,
and Las petitioned the superior
court for the appointment OF re.
oeiver.
The complaint alleges that the
mining company owe, taxes for the
years 1898 to 1908, inclusive,
amounting to s0,641.05, and that
those for 1898 are In process OF fore
closure. 1t Is also alleged that
operation Of the mines proved un-
profitable and exhausted all the re-
sources of the defendant to meet
losses, and that as the capital stock
IL fully paid aud nonassessable, 1t is
I'm posi- BILE to realize anything from
assessment OF stock holders.
The stockholders. 1t !. alleged,
have refused to advance money to
meet the indebtedness, aud the de-
fendant corporation has been un-
able to borrow money to pay the
taxes or indebt ,dness.
The plaintiff alleges that the prop
erty is of doubtful value, and
although operated for period OF ten
years past has never been able to pay
expenses.
Another reason advanced for the
receiver,hip IL the fact that Joseph
Polish has sued the mining ,ompsuy
for 800, 100 damaged for personal
injuries.
The facts recited in ths complaint
seem to verify the oft.repested
assertion that "those mines never
did. never could aud never would
pay" But the expense accounts and
the mine. concentrator, railroad aud
smelter reports covering the career OF
the ore from the time 1t was blasted
from the vein until 1t was reduced to
bullion would throw light In some
dark places.
1t is fact we'll known to mining
men, and especially to those who have
had ore sent to the obsolete concen-
TRAITOR through which ell OF the Monte
Cristo compsny's ores we're run, that
from thirty to fifty per cent OF the
values went down the creek In
tsilings, aud that much Of the crude
ore before going into the mill was
richer than the concentrates that
came out; that the mines were really
assessed to pay expenses OF ooncen-
tIatiOn. Under the Rockefeller
administration the freight charges
from Msnte Cristo were -. so ton,
aud smslter charges were not less
than 90, az against combined rate
OF s5 since the smslter pasased into
the hands of the American Smelling
Il Refining company. To make the
point better understood to the mex
periencsd: Ores from these mines OF
u value ~ low ~ % tou can now be
shipped at a profit without coucen-
tration. while the actual cost under
the former administratiOn was sl2.
In running the gauntlet of the con-
centrator high grade ore was reduced
to low grade concentrates.

Ashamed of Missouri.

Because Missouri went repub- lican at the last election nearly 200 farmers of Dunklin county, whcih lies in southeast Missouri on the northeast boundary of Ar kansas, have signed a petition asking that the State legislature pass an act allowing the county to be transferred to Arkansas.
 It was not until last Saturday that the citizens of the interior of the county learned that ths state had gone for Roosevelt. Immed- lately James Crabtrae, Cob. Tur- her and s. P. Williams, farmers near Hornersville, had a petition drawn stating that "since Mis- souri had gone republican re- spectacle men could not acknowl- edge citizenship in the state without shame," and asking that the state legislature enact such provisions as would allow the county to take steps for transfer of allegiance to the common wealth of Arkansas. A similar petition has been started in Penn iscot county, and the two counties, it is stated will make a joint move for transfer.

Out of the entire list they found only ono that they declared was en- tirely free from all poisons. This exception was Chamberlain 8 Cough Remedy, made by the Chamberlain Medicine Company, Des Moines, Iowa, U. s. A. The absence of all narcotics makes this remedy the safest and best that can be had; and it is with a feeling of security that any mother can give it to her little ones.

Green Forest. Ark. Dear Sir: When you can buy paint for less than Devoe; don't; save your money.
 MT. Aaron Higgons, Plainfield , N. J., always used 15 gallons of paint for his house; Devoe took Il.
 Mr.. Ezra Rathmell, Williams, port, Pa., always used Il; Devoe took 6.
 Mr. Burt Young, ,Girard, Pa. always used gallon for certain rooms; took half as much Devoe. Mr. Nathaniel Barber, Canton N. Y., bought 12 Devoe; used less than 6.
 You can always buy paint for less than Devoe; don't; save your money.
 The wearing counts the same way and doubles the difference. The cost of painting is by the gallon. Weak paint costs most; most gallons.

this department of the school are so we'll satisfied with the prog ress of their children that no complaints are now heard on that score. The fact that so much better attention can be giv- en the pupils in this school than in the private school or in the public school makes the real val ue received so much greater that the matter of price is very small consideration. The pri- mary department, like all other departments of this school, is de- signed for the greatest possible advancement.
 THE TRIBUNE has expected and is still expecting big things of the Ozark Normal. We beleive we have a school here which is destined to become a leading fac- tor in the schools of the state. Not a school of aristocrats, but one where the sons and daughters of the farmers of ordinary and even limited circumstances may be thoroughly educated and fit ted for the duties of life. The great majority of the coming business men and business wo- men of the country must come from this class and the making of such boys and girls into men and women of usefulness is the speciality of the great educational institution recently founded in our promising young city.
