MUST GET TOGETHER.


He CITIZENS and others directly
interested in the undertaking and
completion by the government OF the
Utah lake project would do well to get
together quickly for the purpose of
coming to a final decision as 10 whether
qr aot they want the work done. For
lis part the Herald hopes very. strongly
that the decision win be in the affirm
ative. Surveys made by Prof Swend-
son OF the United States geological
survey. have showed that the project
can Re successfully completed, and that
ii VII result in the reclamation Of
something ike 5000 acres Of land in
me salt Lake valley.
The cost OF the undertaking is trivial
in comparison with the. increase in the
value OF the land that would immedi-
stely follow the completion Of the res
ervoir. It should be understood. though,
here and now. that the government viii
not move a pound Of dirt unless a unan-
imous request is made for it. A few
reea lcitrants can hold up the under
taking indefinitely. On the other hand,
II the canal presidents and directors
and the farmers win get together or
E0ne mutually satisfactory basis, that
titan lake reservoir viii be completed
as fast as money and men can accom-
plish the result.
The Importance Of an early meeting
IS apparent from the fact that F. H.
Newell. chief photographer. VIII be in
salt Lake this month. The interested
people should get together before the
arrival of Mr.. Newell, SO that when he
COMES they viii be able to present to
him something tangible IN the way Of
a request or a statement as tc their
wishes. It is impossible to estimate the
value Of the undertaking to the resi-
dents in the salt Lake valley. They
have the opportunity Of a lifetime to
enhance materially the value of their
property, and they can hardly afford TO
let it get away from them
The cost of the reservoir, it should be
r understood. must be distributed as
evenly as may be among those who are
10 Dc directly benefited. 1t viii be fig
ured down to an acre basis, and assess
ments levied accordingly. However, not
a dollar win be called for until after the
reservoir has been completed, and then
the total cost viii be divided into ten
annual payments without interest. Sure
~ nothing more reasonable could be
asked.

a VAIN PROTEST.

TUT OF NEW HAVEN, Conn. has
- come "a petition, signed by twenty
seven prominent citizens, and headed
by Professor Woolsey Of the chair Of
International law at Yale university.
asking that the senate defer ratif-
cation of the Hay Bunau-Varilla
treaty until this governments action
in Panama has been subjected to care
f0l and deliberate investigation. We
have the greatest respect for Profess
scr Nooisey and his fellow citizens. but
We venture to prophesy that their pc
tition viii not bring any more proat-
able returns than the pouring of wa
ter on the back Of duck.
It is quite true, as the learned and
prominent citizens say, that a belief
has arisen IN the minds Of many per-
sons in this country and abroad that
in our dealings with the state Of CO.
lcmbia we have violated and are about
TO violate the rules of international
law, and that we are adopting a line
OF conduct toward that country which
SIC would not have taken against a
stronger power But the Strenuous
One ia the White House will himself
ecncede that he knows more about in
ternational law than an the teachers Of
international law in this country COM
b.ned.
He seems 10 dominate the senate alb
solutely. and if there Is anything IN
indications the Hay Bunau-V ariila
treaty is going to be ratified, interna-
. tionaI law or no international law.
/ OF course. If the citizens OF British
Guiana should suddenly declare their
/ independence Of Great Britain: if they
should by force Of arms depose the
British governor and lieutenant gov
ernor appointed by the crown 10 rule
over them, the United States would
Immediately recognize the republic OF
Guiana-not. There is considerable diff
ference between Great Britain and TIRE
United states Of Colombia.
TIE Strenuous one weuld lose a great
I deal of his strenuosity under such cir
ruustdnces.

SENATOR HANMA's CANDIDACY

IN SATURDAY last Senator Hanna
" denied that, on the following Tues
day, which was yesterday, he would
come out with a formal announcement
of his candidacy for the Republican
presidential nomination. As Tuesday
has come and gone without a chirp
from Senator Hanna along those lines
/ we may be sure now that his denial
was in good faith. We don't know
what he might have done if the story
/ had not been published, but it is Ger
tain that no announcement from Sen
ator Hanna as to his presidential aspi-
rations is needed.
He said himself in his denial inter
view that his position in the matter is
very generally understood. And it is.
Everybody who is at all in touch with
national politics has been satisfied for
a long time that Senator Hanna is a
receptive candidate for the nomira-
ton. He might go TO the White House
twenty times every day to renew his
allegiance to the Strenuous one and 10
| assure him that he would not block
+ his-way 10 a full term as president.
Nevertheless and Notwithstanding
your Uncle Marcus is not letting any
/ opportunity TO repair his old fences and
to build new ones get away from him.
The chances are most decidedly that
when the nomination begins wandering
iaIound looking for somebody to take 1t
Senator Hanna viii, quite accidentally
i oe course, be right where the nomina-
ton cannot help stumbling over him.
If Hanna thinks ne has a chance to
win he VIII get into the race with both
feet. If ne cannot see a first-elass
fighting show his name viii not he
presented.
And If Hanna's Eame is not presented
no other name except Roosevelt's win
be heard in the convention.

Mr.. DAVIS REWARD

Councilman Hewlett received the
earnest support Of Councilman A. ].
Davis of the Fifth ward in his success
ful candidacy for the presidency of the
council, ceased to wonder when they
read ar Hewlett's list OF committee p
'pointments. Although the people living
in AR. Davis ward, which is strongly
Republican, wanted him so little that
he narrowly escaped a sound beating at
the hands of his fellow Republicans.
AIr. Davis is made chairman Of the
committees on finance and waterworks.
OF all the chairmanships at the dis
posal of Mr. Hewlett these are easily
the most important. The president of

a fair price for the support of Mr.. Da-
Wis but from the standpoint of good
city administration, we are sorry we
cannot agree with him. We feel sure
that the unanimous opinion Of the tax

afternoon The rooms were decorated
entirely in pink except the dining room,
/ Tor pink carnations were arranged IN
( tall vases, and in the haN pale pink
f roses frightened each corner. The din
T ing room was most effective in its ar-
rangement, however. The table was
covered with an exquisite Elm OF tulle.
4 IL the center of which was a piece Of
the handsomest japanese embroidery.
Surrounding this was a circle OF deep
red carnations combined with maiden
hair ferns. Baskets Of the carnations
were placed on opposite corners of the
table, and on the other corners were
candelabra shaded in red. A shower
! of the deep red flowers from the cleo
trolier fell almost to the table. Mrs.

Judge O. w. Powers of salt Lake was
The main speaker at the Jackson day
celebration in Boise last week and
judging from the reports that have come
down the judge made everybody feel
Just Ike juror in a murder case after
the attorney for the defense had fin
ished. Which is to say, all hands felt
they had a sacred duty to perform. n
duty clearly outlined by an earnest and
eloquent gentleman. The Boise States
man, in commenting on the judge, has
the following, which. il is learned, was
inserted free OF charge:
Dominating every other feature Of
an evening full OF pleasant surprises
and delightful entertainment was the
personality and address of the guest
from Utah. He was suaYe, cheerful.
epigrammatic, eloquent and above all
good natured. Even his sarcasm was
gloved so daintily that prominent Re
publicans in the audience FeIished it.
The judge stated frankly at the out
set that he intended making q political
address, but he was careful TO win the
crowd to his side before making the
announcement and nobody stirred
Further on the same article says:
The auditorium was cleared for
dancing after the programme
Thus il is seen that those who came
to scott remained to dance
The only feature Of the occasion that
caused sorrow TO the judges friends
was the publication in another paper
o. an excellent portrait Of Judge Pow
erS under the heading: New Chief Of
the Bann0ck Tribe" OId-timers here
who were associated with the Judge
in the TusCarCTas are panied By this.
What next?" they are asking each
other. The erstW lille Tuscarora is
now a Bannock. What assurance have
We that he viii not be proclaiming
himself a BTule Sioux next week ?''

Boise may properly be looked upon as
an epoch
