The Owyhee nugget. ([Silver City], Idaho) 1905-1984, 1907-03-29

The conditions existing in the
city governpent ofSan Francisco
are being proven even more rot
ten than they we're found to be
in ST. Louis three or four years
ago, with the addition that the
grafters have had a mayor to
stand in with them and instead
of having a political boss like Ed
Butler to put up the jobs for the
grafters to work, the mayor has
had a city attorney capable OF
working all the aldermen, keep
ing the larger share of the spoils
himself. What a beggarly lot of
rascals nearly all of them have
been! But San Francisco has
found a Heyney, as st. Louis
found a Folk, and there is a shak-
ing up going on now down by
the Golden Gate disturbing the
rascals more than last years
earthquake seems to have done.

The attention of Nugget has been
called to an advertisement of
mining company in the Minneapo-
lis Tribune containing representa-
tives which should elicit fraud
order from the postofice depart
ment. The brokers are advertising
several hundred acres, nine miles
from Boise, in the vicinity of the
great Trade Dollar and DeLamar
mines, claiming $50 veins of gold
ore, running from So to $500 per
ton. and lot more of such improb-
able statements.

Judge Wood, with the consent Of
the attorneys for the defense, has
granted change Of venue in the
trial of the Moyer-Heywood Petit
bone cases from Canyon to Ada
county, and thus satisfactorily dis
poses Of the contention that the ac-
cused men could not get fair trial
in the county where former Cover
nor Steunenberg resided and was
assassinated. However much we
may consider the honesty and fair
mindedness Of the average citizens
Of Canyon county beyond question
we must still concede that Judge
Wood was right in granting the
change Of venue. The subject has
been so much discussed wherever a
group of men have come together
in any part OF the county that it Is

The wildcat" Law, a copy Of
which is printed elsewhere in this
number ought to make some of the
promoters of mining schemes in
this state a little more cautious
about statements they publish in
their prospectuses.

Opening of the North Side of
Twin Falls Tract.

April % has been set as the day
for opening for entry the first
10000 acres of the north side OF
Twin Falls tract, and the sale of
town lots at Miner, where the
great dam is located. This en-
terprise intended to reclaim $780,,
900 acres of land on the north
side OF the river, is virtually un-
der the same management as
was that on the south side, where
the water was turned into the
canals two years ago, and if it
be as great a success for both the
company and for the locators as
was the former opening, all the
parties ought to be satisfied.
Indeed there are many reasons
for believing that it will even be
a greater success. The manage
ment has an experience gained at
the former opening; it has even
some more desirable lands than
the south side, because of their
southern exposure. But they are
segregated by a number bridges
and low Duties, which added
greatly to the engineering diff
culties OF constructing canals so
as to cover all Of the more desir-
able lands. This problem has,
however, at length been solved
and the construction work will
shortly be begun.
1t will not require a great
length of time to get water on
the 10000 acres to be opened
next month, they being the east
end, next to Miner, where the
water is to be taken from the
great dam already constructed.
There are several reservoir sites
between this and the lower por-
tions OF the tract where water
can be stored to provide for any
shortage in supply.
The company will at once be
Gin the construction ofan electric
railway to extend from Miner to
Gooding, to be near the line OF
the proposed canal. This will
enable the contractors to get
their supplies Reconstruction to
points required, and be OF great
convenience to locators.
We may look for a rush of set
tiers to this tract quite equal to
that which within the past three
years has transformed the great
sagebrush desert on the south
side of the river into a region Of
prosperous homes.

Cleveland Crops DAMAGED

: o. G. Kleven of Cleveland
township, made this office a
pleasant visit the first of the
week. He states that his county
was pretty heavily hit by the
hail storm of last week, and that
among those whose fields were
partly damaged, besides his own,
are: T. H. Maloney, John Dahl,
Halvor Mandt, Theodore forge
son, James P. Hartman, Chris.
Hermanson and Ed. Burke.
Those whose fields were badly
damaged are: Toilet Aslaksen,
Jacob Wolf and Nels Scow. The
grains mostly damaged are wheat
barley and oates the tough
straw of flax withstanding the
hail without much damage. Mr..
Kleven said that had it not been
for the hail storm, his commun-
ity would have had a very good
crop, Notwithstanding the late
spring, but even now a money
making crop would be harvested
by most of the farmers.

First of August Unusually Cool

Thursday was an unusually
cool day, especially for the first
of August. During the preced-
ing night the thermometer went
down to forty-six degrees, which
is only fourteen above the freez-
ing point. Fifty wasreached at
Z o'clock in the morning, and at
noon only sixty-one degrees were
registered. Weatherman Glass
says this is an unusually cool
temperature for this time of the
year, as the mean temperature
for the first of August is sixty
eight degrees. However, as Mr..
Glass appeared on the streets
wearing a new straw hat, it is
the supposition that the cool
snap will not continue.
