bearing upon the rights or privileges OF

vltaily interested in this case If the
men now accused are guilty Of murder
they should be condemned by every
labor organization in the world. II they
are innocent, the state Of Idaho, their
accuser will do its duty in righting the
wrong done theta"
The governor expresses his belief in
uniOnism, saying he knows the condi-
tlnns and reward Of labor have been
wonderfully improved through the in
strumentality of labor organizations.
Further, he expresses the opinion that
labor organizations should be the first
TO condemn the wrong. Closing, he says:
Il want to assure your union that the
accused men shall have fair and i'm
partial trial. The fairness Of spirit in
which you addressed me has induced

CROPS Arb DAMAGED
Wind Storms, Snow and Freez-
ing Weather Cause Loss.
Club Wheat District is Wtndswent
and Devastated, While Red
Russian Crops Survive.

Great damage, az yet not TO be accu
rateiy estimated, was caused by the
gales, snOwFtOrms and freezing weather
OF the past five or six days. From every
quarter Of the Inland Empire come re
ports Of losses in property and growing
crops. In the cities much damage tC
property was OccasiOned by the high
winds. In the country acres OF wheat
and fruit have been devastated.
The wind storms began last Satur.
day, followed by snow flurries which
soon developed in blizzards of magni
tude. Freezing weather followed and il
Colfax Wednesday night the ther
mometer dropped to below zero.
Grain men Of ColfaX have been receiv
ing reports for two days past as to the
probable damage done, but as vet No
definite calculation Of the losses have
been secured
Manager NJ. A. Scott Of the interior
Warehouse company, has received re
ports from his agents. They state that
west OF COliaX the greatest damage is
apparent at this time. On the hills
where club wheat was sOwn it is reported
that the snow was blown away by the
stiff gales and the bill tops are drv ae
dust. In many instances the light sol
with the sOWa wheat has been wholly
blown away.
In the sections north, east and south
of Colfax whers the lower lands are
sOwn with Red Russian wheat, it is be.
lieved the damage will be less, as the
ground is covered with snow. The iu-
jury done in these sections cannot be de-
termiued until the snow goes away.
Reports from the fruit belts along
SDake river indicate that the early fruit
crop, apricots and peaches, is wholly de-
strOyed. In that section the losses will
be immense.
In COlfax the damage was not 80
great. BiilbOards and signs we're blown
down and water pipes we're frozen ali
over the city.
The unexpected freeze caused shut
down Of the sawmili and stopped the
work Of the construction crews on tie
Spokane K Inland right OF way.
One of the most serious results OF the
storm was the cAving in Of an i'm mpnsa
sandhauk on the 0. r. & n near Arling
ton, Ore Trains were delayed "a hours
and passengers were laid out in the cold
with nothing to eat until the dinprr
could be replenished and run through
AS fast as the sand was shOvrled off The
tracks by big forces of wnrkmen the
banks would again cave. Every avail
able man, including even the dining car
crews, were put to work shOveling, but
delays still marked the trains up to yes.

GOODING GIVES PLEDGE
Idaho Governor Declares for
Labor Unions in Letter.
Insists Assassins Not Considered
in the Same Glass as UniOnists,
Who Charge Conspiracy.

In answer to the many COmmunica.
tiOns received from labor unions who ap-
parently consider the prosecution OF the
alleged murderers OF Ex-Governor Steu-
nenberg a conspiracy, Governor Good
ing of Idaho has issued a statement
which sets forth clearly the causes OF the
arrests. In referring to Orchards con
fessiOn the governor says:
HE told q story of conspiracy and
murder against eX Governor Steunen-
berg 80 revolving in every detail as to
be almost Unbelievable He gave de-
scriptiOns Of other crimes 10 which be
had been interested, or OF which he had
heard, and from the descriptions and
from other data furnished by Orchard
the state has been enabled to secure q
mass OF evidence so strong that | was
compelled by my oath of office and BY
my feelings as q man aud a citizen to
ask for the arrest and extraditiOn OF
Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone."
1t is further stated the confession from
Adams was secured in the same manner,
no hope Of immunity being held out to
him. The men confess a ainst them
selves, as we'll as against others, the gov
ernOr points out, and without promises
of clemency. They tell what appears To
be the blunt truth, indicating that the
men accused were implicated in a con
spiracy TO commit murder. The letter
continues:
If these stories are true, you and the
members OF your union will certainly
agree with me that no punishment under
the Law is too severe TO be meted ont to
the guilty men. Their guilt or their in
nOceDce can not be said TO have any

About Stock Dams.

Since the inauguration of the pres
ent Irrigation Code many inquiries
have come to:the State Engineers Office
concerning the application of the irri-
CATION law of 1905 to construction of
small dams across dry channels for
collecting storm waters for domestic
use
In most instances such dams are
built for watering live stock and for
domestic use; they are not of sufficient
capacity for irrigation purposes aud
are not intended therefor. In such
cases a rigid Interpretation of the irri
cation law, requiring the preparation
of maps and plans and the issuance OF
permit for each such construction
would be unnecessary.
In view of the above the State Engi
neer, before taking action in any case
of this kind, submitted the matter to
the Attorney General with the request
that his opinion be given for future
guidance. A specific instance was
taken, where an application had been
made for permit to construct a stock
dam; the question was referred to the
Attorney Generals Office and the fol-
lowing reply. in part, was made:
II understand that the water desired
is domestic, that is particularly fo- the
use of cattle, ETC., and not to be used
for irrigation or power purposes. If
such is the purpose it would seem that
it would not be controlled by the Irri-
cation Act and that settler would
have right to build the same and Sc
cure water hole for such purpose
without being compelled to get per-
nit under the irrigation act. I"
Under this ruling the construction
of stock dam does not conflict with
the Irrigation Code and a permit there
for is not necessary.

Big Government Institution 1t Hot Springs
Nearly Finished.
DIR. r. D. Jennings of Hot Springs,
the newely appointed governor of the
National Sanitarium, was in Deadwood
yesterday. DR.. Jennings and his wife
will leave this evening for a months
visit in eastern states. They will go
first to Ohio, where for the first time
they will visit their old home together;
they will also stay for few days at
Dayton where the doctor will inspect
the Central Soldiers home, and at Mil
waukee where the Northwestern Sol
diers' home is located. Although the
institution at the Springs is radically
different from these, yet the doctor is
desirous of visiting them aud noting
how they are conducted.
The National Sanitarium of Hot
Springs, upon which the government
has already expended about one million
dollars will be opened the first of April.
1t is not only the only institution of
the kind in the United States, it is the
only one of the kind in the world. At
war footing, it will accommodate
fifteen hundred. When the doors are
opened in April large number of pa
tients from the different soldiers
homes throughout the land will be
ready for admission. Over three hum
dred acres of land are included in the
grounds, which will be laid out and i'm
proved in very artistic fashion.
DR.. Jennings, the governor, took
office the first of last October. He is
we'll known in every county in the
Hills, having come to Deadwood from
Bismark in 1876 For the past twenty
five years he has been resident of
Hot Springs and one of its most sue
cesful physicians .-Pioneer-Times.
