The l.abeas corpus proceedings
before Judge Walters the first ol
the week to decide whether or not
George Ashley could be released
from Jail was decided in the mega
tive.
shley was arrested several days
ago on a charge OF being drunk and
disorderly and disturbing the
peace. He had just been released
from custody few days prior to
the last offence, he having served
thirty days in the county Jail, and
when he appeared before Judge
Vredenburgh again charged with
practically the same offence the
judge thought it might be good for
Ashley to stay in jail little long
er and sentenced him 10 serve six
moLths in Jail.
AS Ashley is stone mason and
claims that by staying in jail the
six months he looses the best part
OF the year to ply his trade, the
sentence combining him until next
fall, he employed Attorney Had
dock to use whatever legal means
possible to release him from lis
long Jail sentence. To that end
Mr.. Haddock instigated the habeas
corpus proceedings which were
by County Attorney Dis
ney. Judge Walters, however. did
not think that George was in Jail
anlawfully and did not deem it ad-
g.-able to grant the habeas corpus
proceedings, go Ashley will have to
'emain in jail until his time is out

For the past two years the people
OF Shoshone have been waiting fol
the deal to be consumated whereby
the north side canal would become
reality instead of mere hearsay,
Their hopes seem to be realized
now, however, as the company has
been fully organized, and 175.OOC
acres of land have been segregated
on The north side of Snake river
The company has let several con
tracts for the drilling Of wells at
convenient points 'ong the line OF
the canal to furnish water for the
contractors on the big ditch. Con
tracts have also been let for poles
Tor the power transmission line
and the surveying for the, main
canal and the laterals has been
completed and the survey for the
electric line between Miner and
Gooding is almost completed.
Several of those interested in the
company were in Shoshonc the first
OF the week on their way to Haley
to make the filings on the land and
when spoken to on the subject hey
said that the company now had all
the necessary financial backing and
that as soon as the contracts for
the canal could be let the work
would be pushed as rapidly as
teams and men could do it. The
follows G article on the subject was
published in the Haley Times ofa
recent date:
The PARTY of Pittsburg and
Twin Falls people that arrived yes
tcrday represents the executive and |
financial power Of the Shoshone
Falls Power company and OF the
Twin Falls north side project.
These two concerns are now merged
into one company known as the
Twin Falls North Side Land and
Power company.
This company is segregating
from the public domain under the
Carey Land Act some 175 900 acres
Of land on the north side of Snake
river. The entries are made at the
United States Land Office at this
place.
This land the company must ir- |
