Wednesday was notable day
for Twin Falls city. Some Grand
Valley, Colorado, capitalists, noted
and successful fruit growers in that
famous western Colorado valley, re-
Gently visited the Twin Falls tract
and purchased 1000 acres of inn
proved land Immediately adjoining
the city bearing that name They
had it surveyed and divided into
five acre tracts, exclusive of the
space to be occupied by streets, pro-
vided for grading the streets, for an
electric and telephone system and
for sewerage system. and gave
their holdings a name we have not
yet learned readily to pronounce
Orchalara. Wednesday was fixed
as the day when the five acre lots
were to be offered for sale. On
the previous day there arrived in
the city special train from the
Rio Grand Western railway, bear
ing homeseekers from Colorado,
principally from Grand Valley.
The train was met at the station
by leading citizens and a band of
music, and the homeseekers made
welcome, with the cordiality Twin
Falls knows so well how to dis
play. Wednesday the sale of the
lots began. Itgoes without say
ing that what most people would
call fancy prices prevailed. For
one of the people had only a week
ago sold % acres of Grand Val
ley peach and apple orchard for

have clear, well-de6ned positions.
But there are certain things that
tend to cause uneasiness in the re-
publican perty. For instance,
while Governor Gooding has given
the state of Idaho a clean and able
administration, he has made many
enemies. His friends think none
the less of him for that, but it may
work to the detriment of Mr.. Brady
if he receives the nomination. Peo-
pie seem to think that Mr.. Brady
is the personal choice of Governor
Gooding and is entitled to his enc
mites. The Tribune has no mis-
givings on Mr.. Brady's account.
His severest critics have not been
able to find any safe foundation for
their accusations. The only thing,
other than his friendship for and
utilization with Governor Gooding,
that they can bring up is that he
showed weakness two years ago at
Pocatello. However, the people
generally do not care much about
that.
On the other hand, the democrats
are hopelessly divided There is
Dubois with his anti Mormonism;
Nugent with his dynamiters and
Rice with his pro- Mormon, anti
dynamite sympathizers. 1t is not
reasonable to suppose that Senator
Dubois and Mr.. Rice can get to-
gether. 1t is absurd to think that
Messrs Rice and Nugent can get
together. This makes a three cor
nered fight among the democrats.
The success of those favorable to
the elimination of this so-called
Mormon question from politics,
means the organization OF an Ameri-
can party in Idaho. The success
of DUBOIS means the conversion of
the democratic party into the
American party. Already each
faction has started in, and it is hard
to tell where they will wind up.
The republicans need only exercise
a little sense and discretion. The
presidential election coming on will
help maintain the balance.-Cald-
we'll Tribune.
The Owyhee nugget. ([Silver City], Idaho) 1905-1984, 1908-03-27

1t is peculiar situation, not
without its suggestive side. The
republicans everywhere are jubi-
liant over the prospect OF Bryan's
nomination, while democrats are
desperately afraid Taft will be
the choice. The latter, after all
the praiseworthy things they
have said of Roosevelt within the
past three years, are scared at
the prospect of a republican
nominee pledged to continue his
policies.-Lemhi Herald.

$4,000 per acre spot cash, and
all the excursionists believe that
the Twin Falls land is quite its
equal.
just think what the Murphy
Land and Irrigation Co., and
the Homedale Improvement Co.,
will do for Owyhee when they get
things going.

TOURIST TRAVEL is PICKING
UP AGAIN

Westbound homeseekers are
once again pouring into Idaho,
Oregon and Washington through
the Great Gateway-Pocatello-
over the Oregon Short Line road.
No. 5 this morning ran through
in two sections, both long ones.
The homeseekers are bound most
ly for southern Idaho, where they
will make homes in the great ir-
rigated lands of the Minidoka
and Twin Falls tracts. They are
well-to-do people, apparently
prepared to conduct a winning
battle with thesagebrush. Some
of them are bound for Oregon,
where older settlements are more
attractive to a certain class.
The blockade in Oregon, caused
by floods and high water, has
been lifted, so that through rail
way traffic has been resumed, al
though eastbound trains are still
running a tride late, owing to
bad connections with the o. R..
& N.-PocatellO Tribune.

ment ranging from $40 to $55 per

THE SITUATION.

The political situation in Idaho
is not all that either republicans or
democrats could ask. OF the two
great political parties the republic
cans have far the better of things.
They have in Senator Hepburn, Re-
preventative French, and Chairman
Brady three men whom they can
unite upon. These three men are
strong individually and they have
something which they represent. 1t
is reasonable to suppose that Will
liam H. Taft will be called upon to
carry out the policies and principle
of government so well undertaken
by President Roosevelt. These men
are in harmony with the president
in most things. AS earless, indie
pendent men they will naturally
disagree with the president on some
things. However, as a whole they

THE MINES DO GO DOWN.

The rich strike made in the
lower level of the Potosi mine,
right in the edge of Silver City,
means more for the mining in
dustry in this district than most
people comprehend. There are
several veins of ore along the
gulch which is at the head of j or
dan creek, on which rich shoots
of ore were found and worked
out in the earlier days of mining
here, but none of them prospected
to any considerable depth, and
the impression finally prevailed
that none of these foot-hill mines
event down, (" to use a prevailing.
expression. One of these foot
hill mines was the Potosi, and
another the Morning Star, identi-
fed to be the same vein, but on
the opposite side of the town.
The Potosi yielded handsomely
for it's then owners, after being
first located, and the Knicker-
booker, a neighboring vein on
the same claim, was the wonder
OF the camp, on account of the
rich ore it produced. On the
other side of the town, it is claim
ed, 100000 was taken from 300
tons of ore from near the surface.
The shaft was sunk deeper, but
no other rich body Of ore ever
found. 1t has been the same
with several other foot-hiil veins,
none of them were supposed to
go to depth. But the recent dis
covery made by the Potosi shaft
penetrating to lower horizon
than any mine in the district had
heretofore reached, and found
ore in a considerable body, will
prompt other owners of claims
to do the same thing. The mines
in this district go togreatdepth.
M. M. Getchell owns fourclaims
south of the Potosi and extend
ing clear beyond the next summit,
out of which some phenomenally
rich ore has been taken from near
the surface. This indicates that
the Potosi is in the center of a
group in one of the longest con-
tinuous veins in this district.

WORKS FOR CIVIC PRIDE.
Excellent Scheme Devised by Mer-
chants Of Western City.

A new scheme for arousing local
pride is being worked in an enterpris-
ing western city. The plan in brief
Is, instead of attempting to vitalize
the civic spirit of the whole commu-
nifty. to organize clubs in different To-
calities and to clean up and light up
certain sections. without regard to
what may be done elsewhere. For in
stance, a club is organized in n
single block. and merchants on each
side of the street are persuaded to
Join. II 1t is desired to make the
block brilliant with light at night an
Investigation Is had to see how IL can
be done. how much 1t will cost and
what it is worth. The plan has worked
so successfully that organizations are
springing up all over the same city to
devote their attention to cleaning or
lighting certain restricted territory.
1t is much easier to secure co-opera-
ton between 20 merchants than be-
tween 200. and the influence of the
few spreads in a widening circle

Great Wealth In Potatoes.

Greeley-Ernest Bliss, one Of five
brothers, all successful farmers in
Pleasant valley, who was one Of the
lecturers on the potato special sent out
under the auspices Of the State Agri-
cultural College to the southwestern
part OF the state, says the institute
work on :he trip was most satisfactory
In some respects" said he, 'the Rio
Grande district has advantages over
the Greeley section for potato raising.
as its soil is better adapted to growing
potatoes, but that district must con-
tend with high freight rates and pos
sible early floods. which interfere with
the maturity of the crop"
He believes that within few years
Colorado will be known as a great po
tato producing state. The growing Of
potatoes generally in Colorado will
mean competition for the Greeley po-
tato, but II will be mony years before
any section can rival this, where
methods of cultivation lead all others.
The San Luis valley has 100000 acres
which, when brought under cultivation,
will make a great potato producing
center.
Local farmers are now receiving 80
cents hundred for their potatoes.

New Guatemala Volcano.

San FraEcisco-The steamer Pan
anna Monday morning brought news of
a volcano in Guatemala, SO long extinct
that its name has been forgotten, hav-
ing recently broke out. Its long sleep
terminated three weeks ago with such
terrifying mutterings and spouting Of
lava and smoke that the people living
at San Fillipe, at the base of the noun
tain, are fleeing for their lives.
Opposite the new volcano is Santa
Maria, a volcano which. during the last
200 years, has wiped out town after
town.
The inhabitants of the district fear
a repetition of the Santa Maria catas-
trophies and are, therefore, deserting
the mountainside. Already the country
for miles is covered some inches deep
with dust and ashes from the active
volcano.

CHEMICAL EXPERIMENT

Almost Like Maaie-UsefuI, Too.

no residue.
If. however. the White Lead is adul-
terated in the slightest degree, 1t will
not wholly change into lead. So. 1t
will be seen, that this experiment is
not only an entertaining chemical
demonstration, but also Of practical
use in the home. White Lead is the
most important ingredient of paint.
