CARD OF THANKS FOR
QUARANTINE.

The following card of thanks
recently appeared in a Kansas
paper: II wish to thank the city
authorities for quarantining me
and my family for two weeks re-
Gently, because one of the chill
dren had the smallpox. During
that time my wife caught up with
her sewing; being undisturbed by
callers Just at meal time, we had
three square meals a day; as no
one came in, and she wasn't per-
mitted to go out, enjoyed two
weeks of good long nights sleep;
and, best of all, a cousin with
four children who arrived to visit
us, saw the smallpox sign on the
door and left town so scared she
will never come back. | wish to
thank the authorities, and hope
they will be equally as thought
full of our comfort some time
again. Respectfully, Lyander
Johnson.

California sanitarium. In a new
coat of white paint, put on at
Magdalena Bay, the feet has now
sailed into the first California
port and will continue it's visits
up the coast until it sails in and
out OF Puget Sound and contin-
ues its visits around the world,
with friendly greetings to and
from all peoples, and again, in
about a year, sails into western
Atlantic ports on our own east

out meeting with a mishap or

RAILWAY SURVEY

County Commissioner, John
Benham, here this week attend
ing a meeting of the Board, says
a corps of engineers is now en-
gagged in making a railway sur
vey down the south side of the
river from Glenn's Ferry, presum-
ably for the Oregon Short Line.
1t is closely following the route
OF former survey and passes
through the town of Bruneau,
will cross Bruneau river near the
head of the canyon at the lower
end of the valley and follow near
ly the line of the Grand View
canal down below the Grand View
settlement, but it has not yet
been developed where it may
cross the Idaho Northern Ry.,
whethernear Murphy or continue
down nearer the river. It's also
not known whether it will con-
tinue down the south side of the
river to connect with the O. S. l..
at Ontario, or will make connec-
ton at Nampa via the Idaho
Northern. There are so many
rumors afoat about the O. s. l..
continuing it's Twin Falls branch
west on this side of the river, to
secure a water grade to Hunting
ton and thence by the route now
being built down the river to
Portland, that the present sur
vey is probably being made with
that plan in contemplation.

The great white fleet of Ameri-
can fighting ships is now in San
Diego harbor in southern Cali
fornia, and every day for some
months to come will be a gala
day in some city on our Pacific
coast spent in welcoming, feast
ing and enjoying the time with
the officers and men on these YES
sells until they sail out of the
Straits of Fuca, tocontinue their
festive and gaudy iourney around
the world. That the feet and
the sailors will meet with a hearty
welcome in every country they
visit is to be hoped and now seems
assured, despite the manufacture
ed rumors OF its unfriendly pur-
poses which filled the minds of
croakers and the columns of for
eign and home sensational papers
when they sailed out OF Hampton
Roads to begin its eventful trip,
and despite the criticisms of the
sea worthiness of the vessels, the
wrongly placed position of it's
armor belt and the other faults
which the knowing critics found
to descant upon and decry. But
they made the fifteen thousand
mile trip around Cape Horn, Wis
tied and exchanged friendly sa-
lutes and greetings with South
American cities and brought up
in Magdalena Bay and were re-
ported by their commanding adj
miral to be ready for action
within an hour, if it were required.

being that the old admiral

with the greater Idaho river upon
which the name Salmon" was first
bestowed and properly belongs.
We would suggest giving it the
name Of one or another of the pro-
minent southern Idaho empire
builders-say Perrine or McCollom
or call it after the young engineer,
Hays, who planned the dam and
found way to take the water out
of the canyon.

RENAME THE RIVER.

Salmon Falls River, as it was
formerly called, to distinguish it
from the greater and more import
ant stream by the same name flow
ing westwardly entirely across Cen
trail Idaho, called Salmon river,
should be renamed to distinguish
it from the greater stream. Salmon
Falls river is entirely within Twin
Falls county, but is now assuming
considerable Importance because of
the great irrigation project which
contemplates the construction of a
high dam across canyon through
which the stream flows and con-
serving the water to reclaim a large
area of arid lands lying principally
in Owyhee county, near the Nevada
line. When this project is fairly
under way, it will attract or share
the attention Of the several great
reclamation enterprises which are
fast making southern Idaho mecca
Of homeseekers. Already the news
papers are beginning to speak Of
this projected reclamation enter
prise as ''the Salmon river project"
leaving off the Falls" portion of
the name. The stream, before it
becomes conspicuous under this
name, should be re-christened, to
save strangers from confounding it

FRIDAY, APRIL II, 1908.

A newspaper Photographer who

for seeing things that other peo-
pie overlook, has given out the
information that the Denver con-
vention will be OF shorter dura-
ton than the Republican conven-
ton, for the reason that Denver
air is so light no one can make a
speech of more than FIVE minutes
duration. "You don't know
Democrats like | do" says the
bird on Nellie's hat. To make
the average disciple of Jefferson
incapable Of exercising his vocal
organs to the extent OF producing
a continuous flow of oratory for
more than five minutes, he must
be lifted over 40 miles above the
surface OF the earth, into the air
less region. Rare air has no re-
straining effect on a Democrat
bent on airing his views.

4NTI-INJUNCTION PLANK.
1t Means Enactment Into L17o of
General Practice of Courts.
IBy Telegraph to The Tribune ]

Cincinnati. June 2o.-Wade Ellis. Attorney
General for Ohio and of the members of the
committee resolutions of the recent conven-
ton who had more to do than any other with
the framing Of the platform. made the following
statement concerning the "anti-injunction
plank to a representative of The Tribune to-day:
There ought to be misunderstanding of
the meaning Of the So-called injunction plank
in the Republican platform 1t simply declares
for the enactment into law Of that which has
been the general practice in the federal courts
No Injunction ought ever to be issued without
notice unless such immediate injury to prop
erty is threatened would make the remedy
unavailing if the delay incident to a notice was
permitted. So when injunction is issued
without notice there Ought to be a speedy hear
ing upon the merits, in order that those enjoined
may have the earliest possible opportunity TO
contest the claim of the petitioner. This is the
law to-day, In far as it is made such by the
practice and equity rules of the courts 1t is
only in rare instances that any just cause for
these complaints and Of the popular misappre-
hension on the subject, it was considered wise
and just that the Republican party should de-
clare in favor Of making universal by statute In
the federal courts that which now Is general
by custom. AT the same time, in order that no
mistake might be made to the partys atti-
tude toward and respEctfo the courts the ex-
pression was made OF confidence in the integ-
rity and uprightness Of the federal judiciary
That is all the injunction plank means.
