Looking Over Dam Site.

D. R. Niver of the firm of Trow-
bridge & Niver, is here looking over
the Canyon Canal. He has with him
well known engineer and it is their
purpose to go over the canal care
fully before determining what action
they will take towards the repair of
the same. However, they assure US
that everything will be done. after
work once begins, with the greatest
expedition, so that water can be as
sured for next season.
1t is to be hoped by all concerned,
that at an early date the company
will make statement as to the plan
they propose to carry out 80 that
those who have land on the bench
can go ahead with their work and
get their places into condition for
the raising of crop next season. As
matters stand now there is uncer-
tainty, and many are holding back
and not improving their places being
uncertain of a water supply next
season.

DR.. PLAT RANCH SOLD
Part of Land VIII be Plated
Into Town Lots.

DR.. B. c. Platt last week sold tc
the Dorman Land Company Of Cald-
well his big ranch at Marsh, known
to old timers as the Marsh & Ireton
ranch. The consideration is not
stated, but it is understood it went
for big figure.
The purchasers state they had two
objects in view in buying this prop
erty. One is to make it the head
quarters for large sheep company.
The principal object, however, is to
build town at the point.
1t is understood that the Butte &
San Francisco Railroad company is
behind the deal and that the road
will cross the ranch. More than a
year ago the B. & S. F. surveyors
ran line from Caldwell east I'D
Willow creek and down the gulch
between here and Pearl to the river
near the Platt ranch, and a repre-
sentative of the company stated to
The Index that that would be the
route of the road. Lately, however,
t is stated that the Weyerhauser in
.erests have secured holdings in the
lew railroad with the object of
Hanging the route so as to run
through Emmett and give them an
'utlet for the mill which they will |
,uild here at an early date. That is
tory, and though The Index has
,een unable to verify it, number
leals recently made make it at least
,lausible.

Within the next two weeks the
Idaho Northern will put into effect
a new time table, which will, among
other changes, discontinues the Sun
day train and deprive Emmett OF
any mail from Saturday morning
Until Monday morning -48 hours.
Now, wouldn't that jar you?
According to the Nampa Leader.
the reason given for discontinuing
the Sunday service is that during
the past eight years the company
has lost the enormous sum of $500
In carrying the Sunday mail. Think
Of it, $500! That means $75 year,
or $l.444 a week. We confess we
were little bit riled at first when
we heard Of the company.'s decision
to deprive us of our Sunday reading,
but after learning that the road had
actually lost one dollar and forty
four and one-fourth cents every
Sunday it had toted our mail, we
cooled off and swallowed our disap-
pointment.

the new time table promises
two trains day during the week. |

NEARLY WASHED OUT.
White Pine Waste Gate
Nearly Washed Out.

Monday afternoon the waste gate
at the White Pine Lumber Com
pany's pond was saved from being
washed out only by the prompt ac-
tion of G. w. Chapman.
About five o'clock Mr.. Chapman
discovered that the water had wash
ed away the earth at the sides of the
waste gate. He called to his aid
Orrie Critics, j. McNish and few
others and after much hard work
they managed to lift the boards that
held the water back from running
through the waste gate. After the
pond was emptied it Was discovered
the water had cut away the earth
on both sides and from underneath
the gate.
The White Pine people had taken
nearly all the logs out of the pond
and expected to have the pond
empty in day or two. Wednesday
they had the waste gate
fixed so they could turn enough
water in the pond to enable them to
load the remaining logs.
The company has about a 800, 900
feet of logs which are to be convert
ed into lumber. The raw material
IS being sawed at the rate of 10000
feet per dav and in short time they
expect to reach the capacity of 50,-
700 per day.
