40 ACRES ENOUGH.

The decision of tine Secret airy OF
the Interior, limiting each home
steader, under the government re-
clamation projects, to 40 acres of
land is stirring up much discussion
and some dissension in the Boise
valley. A great many people filed
on 100 acres of land with the ex.
pectation of relinquishing SO or TAG
acres at a good figure. To sell little
information for from $500 to $1,000
as to when this REIMBURSEMENT
would be made, was certainly a
nice thing, and we don't blame the

Today the people of Canyon
county will have an opportunity of
voting on the question of issuing
bonds for the construction OF
wagon bridge at Payette. The ne
cessity for the bridge is acknow-
lodged by all. 1t will prove
public Improvement of advantage
to the county, in that it will make
possible easy communication be-
tween the farming community
across the Payette river and The
town of Payette. Everything that
makes communication easy builds
up the town and develops the
country. The Payette valley is
rich in natural resources, and ca
pable of sustaining much larger
population than it now has. The
development of that valley is GER
tain.y to the interest of the n,ire
county. People should remember
that the interests of the Boise anc

Community jealousy should be en-
tirely destroyed. BY showing

FOREST RESERVES.

At first many south Idaho people
either opposed or were indifferent
to the policy adopted by the gov
eminent on the forest reserve ques,
ton. They thought that it little
affected them either way, and, If
anything, were inclined to support
the administration policy. The
forest reserves that seriously inter
fered with the development Of the
state were in the north. The idea
that reserves would be al res
ervoirs for the conservation OF
water had a strong hold on their
minds. and consequently the south
Idaho reserves were approved. In
consequence Senator Heyburn's
fight against the wholesale, indis-
criminate creation of forest reserves
neither aroused interest nor devel-
oped support in this section. A
sudden change has come. The
startling information from Wash
ington that shortage of funds for
the reclamation works is in sight
has opened our eyes. We realize
that long delay in getting water
on the lands under the government
projects. under way and contem.
plated, would be serious blow to
the State, There are thousands Of
people located on the Payette- Boise
and Minidoka projects who would
be ruined, financially, should thi:
delay occur. Naturally, people be
gan to seek the reasons for thu
shortage in funds. 1t has trans
pired that much of the reclamation
funds come from the sale of thu
public domain under the stone ant
timber act. The creation of fores
reserves takes the land in these re
serves out of the markets, and shut
off that much revenue from the rec
lamation projects. AS there are nov
I5,848,88o acres of Idaho land il
reserves, and plans in mind for tn
setting apart OF more land, it Wi
be seen at a glance how the fores
reserve policy of Forester Pinchc
is affecting the reclamation projects
The people of north and sout
Idaho will finally come togethel
stand together and work togethe
on the forest reserve question
There is nothing like the prospe'
of mutual financial loss to brin
people together and develop con
mon understanding.

Ghost or Illusion1

A minister of the gospel according
to this tale, was walking to and fro In
long passage that ran through the
house and meditating upon his next
sermon. There brushed by him a
housemaid. He watched her pass and
enter his study. Fearing that she
would disarrange his papers, he hurried
after her, went into his study-and no
one was there. No means Of egress
was possible but by the one door
through which he had seen the girl en-
ter. He rang the bell and-the house
maid came down from the top of the
house, where she had been performing
her duties. And the unusual part Of
the story is that nothing happened
no one slckened and died. The young
woman married happily. And yet that
minister Of the gospel is sure that he
saw that housemaid pass him. Nor to
this day does his stout and happy ma
tron know that she was ever in two
places at once.

Florence Flett Says She Is Sorry

Punished.
ARRIVED In CITY TODAY
in CUSTODY OF SHERIFF
She Is Not Fully Recovered But
Is Getting Well

Miss Florence Flett, the victim
in the stabbing affair at Baudette
is sorry that London was not
given a sitter sentence.
'He got off too easily, the
wretch, . she exclaimed bitterly
when she heard the news of his
sentence to state prison.
The woman arrived in the city
today with Sheriff Bailey, who
made special trip to Baudette
to bring her here to be had as a
witness at the trial. Of course
she is not needed now, but it was
not possible to get word of Lon
don's plea to Baudette until after
the sheriff had left and he knew
nothing of it until arriving home.
Miss F'lett says she is glad 1t is
all over, as the trial would not
have been pleasant and she would
have had to stay in the sheriff's
custody until 1t was taken up by
the court, sometime next fall.
The woman is not completely
recovered from her wound, but
is able to travel.
