had not told Bimerick or any person
that a man had seen Beaver Jack"
That statement sets at rest the
story circulated some days ago by
Benjamin Penny that he had stayed
all night with Beaver Jack" the
assertion having been made by Ben
upon a recent visit to Kooslxia from
up in the mountains.

SETTLERS MUST
PAY FOR LAND

Following is the detail of classifica-
ton of lands in the Occur d'Alene
Indian reservation opening next fall:
The reservation lands will be class
ed after the allotment to the Indians
as agricultural, grazing or timber
lands. All will be open for home
stead, but stone and timber fling will
not be applicable. The filing fees will
amount to $22 per 100 acres. How
ever, in addition to the filing fees each
homesteader will be required to pay
the appraised value of the land.
amounting to only nominal figure
probably not more than SIS an acre.
The greatest price paid for the Nee
Perce lands did not exceed $s.75 an
acre, and the mile strip near Harrison
has never exceeded $4.sS an acre, while
the average would not exceed s2.50.
The payments are one-fifth cash at
fve equal annual instaIlments. Should
time of entry and the remainder II.
payments fail to be made, the land
reverts to the government. Lands
classed as timber lands may not be
commuted; all others may by paying
the appraised value
No one knows when or the manner
the lands will be opened for settle
ment.
Some. of these lands include the
very choicest wheat lands, some hav-
ing been put under cultivation by the
Indians for years. Tie timber lands
are considered much more valuable,
but they win require FIVE years ac-
tual residence before the patent is OBJ
tainable. Some of the timber is close
to the lake. and streams, which VIII
make good quarter section worth
from $4,000 to 10000.

A. few weeks ago at a meeting of
several of the business men of Twin
Falls, who owned property adjoining
the original townsite of Filler, 1t was
decided that the time was ripe for
the opening of a townsite free from
strife and trouble, and start brand
new town in the way 1t should have
been started year ago.

$2,5Oe,Ooe

Work on the big north side irriga-
ton project on the Twin Falls tract II
to be begun the first week in March,
according to persons interested who
are now In Boise. 1t il stated that
$2,5OO, 900 will be expended on the
project and that 1t win be spent at
the rate Of about 100000 per month.
This, wi&n completed, will be the
largest single irrigation system on the
continent.
The system is to be installed by the
Twin Falls North Side Land & Wa
ter company which grows out of the
Twin Falls Land & Water company.
The new company was recently or
ganized in Pittsburg and is composed
principally of Pittsburg capitalists. It
is a Delaware corporation and articles
will be filed in this state in a few
days. I. B. Perrine of Twin Falls
is one of the directors
North Side of Snake River.
The company is preparing to ask
for bids and expects to let the con-
tract on the big canal within 80 days.
The canal is to be built on the north
side of the Snake river from Miner

side canal the Twin Falls project will
contain an area covered by canals ex-
tending over 100000 acres, larger than

Two Big Caches Of Dynamite Found
.TH|RTY-TWO STICKS IN
POSSESSION OF POLICE
w. L. Grow Discovers Pack
age of Explosives at 18th
and Mission

Twelve sticks of dynamite were
found wrapped in a newspaper in a
vacant lot at the southeast corner Of
Mission and Twelfth streets shortly
after 10 o'clock yesterday morning by
". L. Grow, a resident of the district
He notified Policeman Harry Seguine,
VINO took the explosives to Captain Of
Detectives Colby. Eight hours later
three small boys while playing In a
vacant lot in Clay street near Stockton
discovered wooden box containing 20
sticks Of dynamite. These were also
turned over TO Colby.
Whether Captain Colby believes that
these discoveries have any connection
with the streetcar strike he will not
say. He has surrounded the finding of
the destructive powder with a great
deal of mystery.
Grow was walking along Mission
street when he saw the parcel lying
between an old barb wire fence and a
section of a post. His curiosity was
aroused and. opening the package, he
found - sticks of hercules No. 2,
capped and ready for use.
An hours sweating of Grow satisfied
Colby that he knew nothing more about
the explosives and he was allowed to
go. The captain OF detectives did ali
in his power to keep the matter Sc
cret and when pressed for a statement
said that he would ignore the matter
altogether, explaining that so much
dynamite was being discovered that 1t
was becoming a sort of a joke"
Up to a late hour last night no ar
rests had been made in connection with
the case, nor. as far as could be learned,
were any detectives detailed on 1t.
Each stick of the explosive is about
IA inches long. of a dark yellow shade,
and, according to the experts of the
police department who examined It is
powerful enough to blow up several
cars. The package could not have been
lying long where it was found, for the
reason that the newspaper IN which 1t
was wrapped appeared to be perfectly
fresh.
The discovery of dynamite at Clay
and Stockton streets was made by Au-
gust Muerer. his brother, Ludwig, and
Floyd Cockerhan, while passing
through the vacant lot. The lads no.
ticed large wooden box lying in a
pile of bricks and on opening 1t saw
several large yellow sticks
Becoming alarmed, the boys hunted
up Patrolman George Barry, who at
once saw that the queer looking sticks
were dynamite He took the box and
its contents to Captain Colby.

speech recently delivered by the Vice

cautiousness, he has gone straight to
the point without qualification, and

talk. The TACT that Nj. Fairbanks
