THE Great Western Beet Sug-
ar company is just now in a
very embarrassing position. 1t
is about to file for record, as re-
quired by law, a sworn state
ment as to the capacity of its
irrigation works, and a similar
statement as to what perpetual
water rights it has sold and now
has outstanding. This state
ment is required, as has been
previously shown in this paper,
by the laws of 1899. But there
is another statute of this state,
reproduced verbatim in anoth-
err column, which provides a
heavy penalty on any person
who publishes or permits to be
published any book, report,
statement, exhibit or other pub
LEGATION which contains any
statement which is false or will
fully exaggerated or which is
intended to give or which shall
have the tendency to give a
greater or less apparent value
to the property of the corpora
ton concerning which the state
ment, etc., is made than such
property really and in fact pos
sesses. The officer of the COM
pany who is charged with the
duty of making the statement
required by law regarding the
capacity of the irrigation works,
is therefore called upon to do
one of three things. He must
either tell the truth in that state
ment, or stand trial for perjury,
or place the Company or some
of it's officers under fear of the
penalty for making afalse state
ment with the intention of CIV
ing a greater apparent value to
the property of the corporation
than it really and in fact pos
sessed at the time of making it.
The Republican, in company
with a large number of more di-
rectly interested persons, awaits
with considerable interest the
filing of this report.

THE Great Western Beet Sug-
ar company made a new move
Saturday, in pursuance of it's
plan to put down all opposition
to its continuation in power in
Mountain Home affairs. Evil
IDENTIFY realizing the fact that it
was useless to try to get any,
one one here to take any stock
in the reports that might ap-
pear in the Megaphone regard
ing the present status of the
contest now on in Mountain
Home, sinceeveryoneknowsth that
its news reports are controll-
ed absolutely by the Private Of
flee in the Company's suite of
rooms, and are there made over
and restated so as to best fur
ther the interests of the Com
pany, the Powers That Be set
out on a new tack. The Even
ing Capital News, an independ-
ent newspaper with democratic
proclivities published in Boise,
has for some time had a Noun
tain Home correspondent, and
has from time totime published,
under the head of Special Cor
respondence," various items of
news interest from this CORE
spondent. They have been in
the main short local items about
people and small affairs, such
as usually appear IN the local
columns of the home paper.
This correspondent is and has
for some time been employed
in the Great Westeen Beet Sug-
ar company's Office. This may
have been a mere coincidence,
but it surely was a fortunate
one for the Company, for it en-
abled it to get printed in the
Capital News, a presumably inn
partial paper, and under the
head of Special Correspon-
