TILE fKiCE OF IDAHO LANDS.

Five years ago last June the first
opening OF Carey act lands was
neld at shosAone. At tnat time the
south SIDE Twin FANS lands were
placed On The market at $50 an acre
and went begging for buyers. Those
who did have the nerve to buy went
by wagon across 80 miles OF desert
crossed Tie mighty canyon OF the
Snake river and builded a city and
community OF which the world
may well be proud. This forever fix
cd the status OF irrigation work un-
der the Carey act and since that
time hundreds OF thousands of acres
OF Idaho desert lands have been con-
gerted into just such homes.
From the price OF S25 per acre for
these first lands the price has grad
ualiy risen until at the Goose creek
sale at Miner last Monday practi-
cally the entire tract OF $4,000 acres
was sold at $50 per acre.
Next Tuesday there will be a sale
at Bull OF the tract known as the
West End Twin Falls. This is q most !
beautiful tract of land across the
Salmon river few miles southwest
of Buhl 1t is to be sold at $4,000
per acre and the Leader predicts that
this will be the last $40 an acre land
sold in the state. The great Bru-
neau tract will go at much higher
figure.
There are several reasons for this
in price. One is that natur-
ally the easier projects We're worked
out first, making the more expensive
ones come later This cause win
continue to operate until the lands
are exhausted and as the
difficulties to be overcome increase
the prices will go higher. But the
real cause of the increase in price
lies in the intrinsic value of the lands
ior there would be found no capral
10 build the expensive works were
here no purchasers for the lands at
he prices asked. So it is the iptrin-
SIC value OF the land after all that
determines the price, 1T has been
that these Snake river I
ands are the cream of the earth, t
hat they are practically inexhaust- &
BILE and that irrigation is a scientific /
method of culture that requires the t
xercise of as much intellectual tai 2
mt as any other business or profess
ion. So these lands have become at
ractive to men of brains as wed as
len of money.
The first allotment Of one million I
cres Of Idaho desert lands under
he Carey act have long ago been ex-
austed and another two millions of
cres been granted. These, to5, have j
cen almost exhausted. Thlak what p

KIDNEY DISORDERS
Symptoms and Home I Treatment

Gaut, the celebrated German spec
ialist, asserts that seven-tenths of the
feeble-minded and insane are the vic
Tins of kidney diseases.
Nervousness, excitability, restless
ness, melancholia, pains In the back
and head, neuralgia and rheumatic
pains, fevers, chills, scanty urine,
highly colored and acid urine, burning
pains, fullness and soreness in the re-
gion OF the bladder, all indicate that
the kidneys are affected and weak
ened. needing tonic treatment
The very best physician should be
consulted at once, or let the following
simple, inexpensive. but reliable pre-
scription be used for several weeks:
Mix onehalf ounce fluid extract
Buchu, with one ounce compound
fluid Balmwort and two ounces com
pound syrup Sarsaparilla. Then take
teaspoonfu1 after each meal and
one at retiring, drinking plenty OF
good, pure water between meals. This
mixture makes a splendid tonic and
blood purifier.

CRANO JURY ACTION
indictments Found Against
Two New York Racing
Organizations.
HAVE ISSUED WARRANTS

(American News Service)
New York, Oct. 4.-The Kings county
grand jury has found indictments
against the Coney Island and Brooklyn
Jockey club as corporations, and war
rants will be issued at once for the ar
rest of the presidents and treasurers
of the two organizations. The Coney
Island club president is Schuyler l..
Parsons; Phil Dwyer is president of
the Brooklyn club. It is said today
that there are thirty warrants to be
served in connection with the race
tract cases, but that it will probably
take some time to locate the men
wanted.
The charge on which the two clubs
are indicted is that of aiding and
abetting gambling on the race tracks.

CHALLENGE IS ACCEPTED.
BOSS STATES THAT THEY HAVE
ROLLED OUT THE SklDS FOR
HIM BEFORE, BUT THEY HAD
NEVER BEEN USED.
palladium Specially

~A>O~--@/
indianapolis. Ind, Oct. 4.-Somebody
remarked to Tom Taggart the other
day that 1t looked as if the new deal
faction of the democratic party had
the skids ready to put under him and
slide him out of the control of the
party in this state
WELL" replied Taggart, they have
brought those things out OF the shed
a good many times for me, but they
have never used them yet. don't
propose to be thrown out unless
want to-
Challenge 10 Made.
So there is the challenge thrown
down to the element, led by Governor
Marshall, which hopes to reorganize
the democratic state committee and
the state organization along lines that
will be different from those that have
prevailed In the past
Some time ago the story was told
that Taggart had announced that he
would retire from active politics in
this state and devote all of his time to
his vast business interests. It is
probably true that he did make this
statement, but, as has been explained
in this correspondence, 1t does not nee
essarily mean that Taggart is going 10
take his hand entirely off of the throt-
tie that controls the democratic loco
motive. Taggart is a foxy politician.
and 1t is remembered that he has on
several occasions, declared his inten.
ton Of getting out of politics. 1t is
remembered also, that on each of these
occasions the statement was made
when Taggart had big fight on hand.
Then when the fight was over Taggart
had won and was bigger than ever in
his party and more strongly intrench-
ed as the boss.
Color to the Theory.
It is the prediction of many that this
Is what he will do this time, If he has
been correctly quoted in his statement
that he will retire. The remark which
he made the other day. as quoted above
gives color to this theory.
If it ever comes to point where
Taggart and Marshall engage in a gen.
uine fight for control of the party ma
chinery in this state, it will mean the
clash of two clever politicians. Every
body knows that Taggart is good pol
itician. Governor Marshall disclaims
any pretensions at being a politician
in any sense of the word. He says he
does not know a thing about politics.
But the rest of the people are of diff
ferent opinion. They regard him as
a past master at the political game.
One man said the other day Marshall
in politics was like q beginner who
was learning to play euchre.
"You know. when you try to teach
some one how to play the game he al
ways beats you," the man remarked.
And that is the way with Marshall. He
has never been licked yet.
Against Boss Rule.
Governor Marshall has again come
out flat footed" against boss rule in a
party. A few days ago he received 4
letter from a committee of Eastern
democrats who contemplate calling a
conference of party leaders from all
over the country to decide on plan o!
campaign for next year. 1t is pro-
posed at this meeting to discuss the
issues that are to be raised and to plan
for the organization of the party il
the nation. Governor Marshall has

FELT HATS.
Evolution Of the Fluffy Fur Into the
Finished Product.

Finished Product.
It is an interesting matter to follow
stage by stage the evolution of little
pile Of soft. fluffy rabbit fur into the
finished hat. whether a light colored
crush or a raven black hard bat Of the
derby shape. The general idea about
such a hat is that it is cut and made
or nodded out Of a sheet of felt, SO
that amazement comes when one is
shown bales and heaps Of rabbit fur
and is told that 1t is out Of this that
hats are made. Felt indeed is not so
much a primary material, but feIting
is the process by which wool. fur or
hair is matted together and formed
into q close fabric. For hats rabbit
fur is the material used. The first
step in it's treatment is the thorough
cleansing of the close clipped fur in a
machine. which winnows it of all dirt
or foreign matter and leaves it In Il
soft. fluffy condition resembling th>
finest and highest down.
Anything less resembling a hat it is
impossible to imagine. But the mar
velous ingenuity Of the next process
accomplishes an almost magical
change. In the central box Of a hop
per-like machine big copper cone re-
wolves. From above the soft. fluffy
FUR is fed down in a shower, which
clings like gray snow on the revolving
coue. while jets of water and steam
spray on the fur mat and plaster 1t
into a complete covering. In a minute
or two the cone is covered to the
depth Of one-eighth of an inch with
this matter and saturated fur. which
is now become felt. The machine is
stopped. the cone Is taken out. and the
workman dexterously peels off the felt
covering. Being built up on the cone.
1t is also cone shaped and looks like a
gigantic sugar loaf bag. It is the en-
bryo hat.
In this first state It is a soft, wet.
felt cone. measuring "a by 80 inches.
Rolled up. 1t enters upon a series Of
processes and Is shrunk together %
that it measures 1031 by II inches.
The hat. now q browny-gray felt
cone. like a clowns cap. is smoothed
by being placed against rapidly revolv-
ing sandpaper. 1t is stinened by BE-
ing dipped In shellac. dyed black BY
immersion In a vat and then passes
on to be shaped. Warm water gives
the felt pliability again. and the man
pulling out or ''earsing' the apex OF
the cone draws and smooths it down
to 4 wooden block of the exact shape
and size the hat is required to be. As
1t dries 1t takes its destined shape and
nrmness as regards the crown. while
the bfim Is still nat and untrimmed-
The body Of the hat Is DOW pract-
cally flushed. Then comes the shap.
ing Of the brim. which is worked down
and bent over a wooden frame Of the

"A Woman Of Mystery"

The metropolitan cities of the Unit
ed States get performances in their
theaters that the smaller cities can
not support on account of the enor-
nous expense. such as great produc-
lions with 200 people on the stage.
which possibly is the only reason that
the production is great. Richard
Mansfield when starring in "Cyrano
de Bergerac" of Henry w." could not
afford to play the smaller cities but
last season in "Beaucaire" 1t was pos
sible for him to do so because he
merely carried a limited number Of
fine artists in his support: still this
play was just as attractive in metro
politan cities as one of his great-num-
berof-people productions. Other art
lists play large cities that can afford
to play smaller cities also. for in
stance, Mgrs. Walters & Way make 1t
possible for Miss Courtenay Morgan
to play them because "A Woman Of
Mystery" can be played by a moder-
ately small company. 1t is hoped that
the citizens Of Richmond will give
credit to our local manager for bring
ing such attractions to our city there
by encouraging more artists Of this
quality to come.
