Visitors From Boise.

Judge j. T. Morgan and wife OF
Boise are here for a few days visit
ingJudge and Mrs. J. M. Stevens, she
being the daughter of her guests.
Judge Morgan was the federal
judge in this district of Idaho before
we became state, and for many
years was one of the foremost among
the legal talent of this end OF the
state. He was heavily interested in
the Bank of Idaho which operated
here in the boom days Of the early
eighties but had an unfortunate
year in 1885 and closed it's doors in
October, the judge losing his fort
une in an ordeal he could not pre-
vent.
The judge is enthusiastic about
our representatives in the United
States senate, expects great things
of both of them If they live, and
gives due credit to our member of
the House.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Morgan are
boosting for Boise the Beautiful"
and took opportunity to conjure the
Republican writer to give his best
thought to the solution of the trou-
bles standing between capital and
labor, the liquor question, careful
re-adjustments of the tariff at times,
the preservation of the forests with
out interfering with or hindering
the home builder, and broad clean
policies of government that shall
make the state attractive to the
best classes Of citizens who are look
ing for places to make homes.
Mr.. and Mrs. Morgan are little
older than they were twenty years
ago, and very interesting to be with.
Their daughters telephone number
is ia, and they live near the court
house. Perhaps this is an item too
much, but if so we are willing to be
forgiven.

THE MARTIN CANAL.

This company Is developing a fine
tract Of land in the plain about six
miles west of Idaho Falls and owns
canal five miles long, beginning
at point on the west lateral of the
New Sweden Irrigation District in
section II, 2 n 81, e. B. M, and ex-
tending to a point in the southeast
corner Of section24, 2 n, SO, e. B. NJ.
and will reclaim 1900 acres of as
good land as there is in the Snake
River valley This Martin Cove"
was about all entered over 20 years
ago but the entry men found they
had to fiume gulch 33 feet deep
and $50 feet long to get the water
in the cove, hence they all abandon
ed their claims. In 1902 Mr.. d. G.
Martin of Idaho Falls Investigated
the feasibility of fluming the gulch
and constructing the canal to deliver
water in the cove and found 1t would
cost not more than $4,000.
In 1903 Mr.. Martin associated
with him Geo. j. Davis of Idaho
Falls, J.. H. Patton of Blackfoot and
R. N, West of Blackfoot and en-
ployed Frederick Moseley of Idaho
Falls to engineer and manage the
work. Mr.. Moseley completed the
work in October, 1905. The flume
or cyphon is constructed of slaves
2x6 inches and 5-S-inch\ iron bands
one foot apart; is $50 feet long, 80
inches in diameter with an inclina-
ton of feet, 10 inches and will
carry 5000 inches of water. The
association was incorporated in No
1906, and made final proof
of their work In January, 1908, to
the entire satisfaction of the state
engineer. There will be four or five
hundred acres in crop this year I'M
der the canal and next year it will be
about all cultivated.
The officers of the company are:
]. Fl. Patton, president; o. e. Nc
Cutcheon, vice president; and r. N.
West, secretary and treasurer
In addition to those already men
Toned, the following named persons
nave invested In the enterprise and
ire developing fine farms in the
cove:
Mrs. Clarence Mcdonald, w. w.
raliaferro, Mr.. Mulhall, William
deslop and Oscar Lundstrum.

Levi Bruce, who went east on a
visit last fall in company with Geo.
Porter, had an accident while chop
ping in the woods In Virginia on the

wise injuring him.
The fracture was not properly
treated and after nearly three
months he returned to Blackfoot
where he had to undergo an opera
ton to claen the surfaces of the
fractures and give them another
chance to knit. He is now under the
care of DR.. Mitchell and will proba-
bly, have long painful siege of 1t on
account Of the wounds being neg

Hamerick scored on Couch's beauti-

cross the rubber in the first half of the

second and Benton at the bat, the spec
tators held their breath. But Benton,
working his head, gently tapped the

PRINCETON WILL
TRY TO EVEN UP

Richmond admirers of the Univer-
sity of Virginia will have their only
opportunity this season or seeing the
team on the local diamond, when they
meet Princeton at Broad Street Park
tomorrow.
In the game at Charlottesville yes
terday the Nirginians took In Prince
ton by the score of s to 2, and the
Tigers will meet them here, anxious
to even up the score.
The appearance of these two teams
here promises to prove great attrac-
ton TO fans. and the managers of both
squads assure fast exhibition of
college baseball.
Captain Harlan. of the Tigers, is one
OF the best all around athletes in the
country. He was captain last year of
the victorious football e:even, and
year before last. when Princeton de-
feated Virginia, he was responsible for
the winning run.
Susong. tho university's famous
twirler, did not appear in the box
against Princeton yesterday on account
of an examination, but both he and
Carl Walker will face the Tigers
heavy hitters in the game tomorrow.
Susong comes from Tennessee, and
when he landed at Charlottesville three
years ago nobody knew anything about
him.

At that very moment Susong was

awkward and his demeanor extreme

Using of all the unprom,sing bunch.
But Susong's transformation was
startling. A few weeks later he was
winning his games from the North's
largest colleges. Las: year he was
picked for an all-American baseball
team.
There is something peculiar about
Susong's pitching. He has not much
speed and but limited curves, but he
always poves a puzzle to the best hit
tcrs. Manager Kelly. of the Toronto
squad, which practiced at Charlottes-
willie, prophesied great future for
both Susong and Walker, the Rich
mond boy.
