WE CAN PREVENT FLOODS.

There is danger of very high water
in Snake river for the next few weeks
and unless something Is done to con-
troll it, much damage may be done by
the overflow, washing away headgates
and overflow of canals.
The long period Of rain with cool
weather that preserved the snow and
yet filled it with water, the heavy fall
Of wet snow on the mountains, and the
sudden turning to sunny weather with
great heat, may bring down tremen-
dous amount Of water.
The water commissioners and water
masters should keep in close touch
with the question, and If necessary, re-
quire all canal companies to divert as
much water from the stream as they
can, keeping 1t scattered in waste
bitches and running to waste in any
and all places where 1t may be put
without doing damage.
The canal systems of the upper part
of the valley are sufficient to greatly
reduce the stream IL they act together,
and this may be necessary to save de-
struction from an overflow.

WILL soon PROVE 1T.

Many people are very much exor-
cised over the matter of which dele
cation from Idaho Will be seated in
the Denver convention, and 1t is inter-
esting to note how many Republicans
are on the anxious seat. Why should
they care which delegation is seated,
since the party is nicely split any
how? If they are really Republicans
they ought to be enjoying the specta-
Gle from a neutral point of view, but
their very anxiety over the matter
leaves them open to the suspicion that
they have merely been posing as Re-
publicans and using the party under
feigned allegiance to it.
1t is time to be looking into such
matters and see If there is an Ethio-
plan in the woodpile.
The Denver convention comes on the
18th of July, and then they will have
until the 4th of August to get ready
for the big battle at Wallace where
the state ticket will be nominated.
1t may not be consoling to old time
Democrats, but it is our humble belief
that the Perky delegation will not be
recognized at Denver, but they will
have all of July to marshal their
forces to gain control at Wallace, and
If they have the votes they can do 1t,

help US to stand our ground. though
the row was pressed upon us because
we refused to use the paper to injure
the discipline of the schools.
About three-fourths of the time we
are short of advertising, seldom car
rying the proportion of advertisements
and reading matter that are required
to maintain a paper, and If we had
been Obliged to depend on the income
of the Office to keep 1t going we should
have failed long ago.
One thing that has stood between us
and failure, is the loyal patronage of
the people in the country. Their
prompt payments Of subscriptions and
their loyalty to the home printing
house when they wanted anything
printed, has carried us over many a
pinch that would have closed the Of
flee IL we had been relying on the old
rule of a column of advertising for
each column of reading matter.
Our local business men are not much
given to advertising That is their
own affair. and we serve them when
they let us. We refrain from boring
the life out of them trying to show
them where they miss 1t by not letting
the public know what they have on
sale. We are asked a hundred times
year why we do not have more adj
vertisements in our paper and make
some money, but Of all the strangers
who have come to town and studied
that situation, only one ever offered
a reasonable solution, and he decided
that so much reliance was placed upon
the Indian trade, that it had resulted
in losing the faculty of catering to
the reading public. Another reason
is that Blackfoot is county seat, and
county seat towns generally drift into
a rut, waiting for business to be forced
upon them. Old state capitals get to
be the same way.
We have always been very frank
with the public in all things, and it is
not telling any secret to state that our
list of subscribers is just eleven hun
bred. We print from twenty to two
hundred week more than enough to
supply our regular list, and these are
used in drumming UP new business, for
1t is a steady fight to keep the list
from going back down. We do not send
the paper to anybody unless he pays
or agrees to pay, and we have come
to believe in very short agreements.
When people move away without pay
ing In advance, we generally decline to
send 1t to them, for experience has
shown that about eighty per cent of
them take advantage of us If we do.
Just as soon as we harvest a good crop
in this county, we will change to the
cash lin advance rule, and extend no
credits except in cases of sickness or
misfortune.
We published the first issue of the
paper on July 49, 1904, and in Septem-
Der, 1905, we printed a daily for week.

had job printing and advertising
