Boise Idaho, March 16.-With the
filing Of papers in the office Of the state
engineer by the Twin Falls-Bruneau
Land & Water company FOR the con-
troll of certain water rights from the
Snake river aud other streams, a link
was formed in the chain OF Irrigation
projects under the management of the
above named company to make of the
already famous Twin Falls tract the
greatest irrigated area in the world.
The papers Just filed with the state
engineer ask for the appropriation of
waters sufficient to irrigate 100000
acres lying in Owyhee county ada
cent to the Twin Falls tract. This
combined with the enterprises already
under the control of the above namcu
company together With the adjoining
Glenns Ferry project on the north VIII
make the greatest INLAND Empire" on
the continent embracing approximately
100000 acres of choice land. which
could easily support population OF
100000 people.
Idaho already has more irrigated land
than any other state in the Union, ana
has reclaimed more land under the pro-
visions of the Carey act than any other
state; but such movements as the one
above referred to and the assurance
of an appropriation by Congress of
another million acres OF Carey lana
will easily put idaho in the front rank
of the ''iriigators" OF the world.
NEARLY TWO MILLION ACRES.
To carry out the present plans of the
Twin Falls company in completing the
Bruneau project, which they recently
purchased. and others already on hand,
an expenditure of $50, 100000 will be
required. These projects will embrace
100000 acres They are as follows:

What do we aim to accomplish by or
ganizing? De we mean as an organiz-
ed body to meet from time to time,
at our respective locals, to be benefit
ed? If so in Gods name let each
and everyone Of us from this time
henccforth keep our business strictly
to ourselves; then soon the non-union
men will become very much interested
about our order and business and
when they fail to learn outside of
the Union what we insiders are doing
they will place some confidence in our
organization and come into the Un-
ion and not until then. So, brethren,
/ besecch YOU one and all, in the name
of the Farmcrs' Union and in the
name Of the brotherhood, that we live
up at once for more determined
fight for our rights, and for equal
rights to all. Now, brethren, we all
see and know We arc talking and writ
inc too much let each Of Ms exam
inc ourselves and profit thereby.
Now. brethren, we have a hand to
hand fight, and well organized We
can accomplish our aim; unorganizcd
we can accomplish nothing.
Always be on guard All other
classes arc organized and they have
wonderful success. Why9 Just be-
cause they arc organized to accom-
plish certain thing, and are bust

We know nothing of them and never
will know what they do. Why7 Just
because its secret organization and

we, too, should make ours great

That Hon. John G. Evans is en-

made special study Of the Sricncc

mrnts are of Il high order.

affairs and special. technical informal

Mr.. Evans has done nothing of late
years to keep alive The unpleasant
ness Of the early '90'S. but on the
contrary has behaved himself in dig
nificd. manly way. Under the most
adverse and often unjust criticisms
he has not uttered word Of com
plaint on vitupcration. lie has thus
shown himself to be Il man Of poiSc.
All references now by our papers
to the days Of factinnaliSm is ill-tul-

It shows Mr.. Evans broadncss Of
view that he does not call attention

pcals to no class or faction but to the
sober Judgment Of all the people. His
speeches have been thoughtful and
di"nil'icd, withoNt the least appeal to
prejudice or ignorance.
1t is urged against him that he has
had enough. Such argument implies
that a senatorship should go TO a
man who has failed to get something.
His opponent has sought Office before,
even a seat in congress. So scna-
torship by this token should he re-
fused a man who has held high office
and given to man whom the people
have refused to give Office. Such ar
