COLLECTOR ENJOINED.
Judge Humphreys Rules in Madi.
 son County Road Tax Case.

Chancellor T. H. Humphreys last week rendered decision in the Madison County road tax case, and Collector w. (. Sharp was perpetually enjoined from collecting the tax. Mr. Sharp gave notice that he would appeal the case to the supreme court, and was given thirty days in which to file his papers.
 It will be remembered that an error was made III tabulating the vote in Madison County on the road tax, 1t being first reported that tax had carried. After tile tax had been extended on the books the error was discovered, and it was found chat a majority had voted against ta5. Suits were then instituted in chancery court to restrain the collector from collecting the tax, although many have already paid it.
 There seems to be 10 doubt but what the supreme court will sustain tile lower court.

TRIAL MONDAY
Only Solution Left for the Adjust
ment Of the Company's
Difficulties

Next Monday is the date set by
Judge Walters for the receivership
hearing in the case of the Great
Western Beet Sugar Company. Last
week a number of attorneys and
others interested in the case appeared
before Judge Walters at Shoshone and
asked that a receivership be granted
for the company. He took the mat
ter under consideration and set the
date for hearing at Mountain Home,
Monday March 10.
This appears like the conclusion of
the difficulties that has beset the
path of our progress the past few
years. There is no doubt that the
matter will be taken up at the aP-
pointed time and disposed of for
all time to the satisfaction of all
concerned. 1t is understood that re-
ceiver will be appointed to settle up
the business of the old company and
offer same for sale to the highest bid
der. Should this accur the business
will be handled in the shortest post
sible time and the affairs turned over
to company ready and willing to
take up the project on fair and
equitable basis.

Important Legislation

Among the bills Of interest to
newspapers and job printers is one
forbidding the use of rubber stamps
in marking butter wrappers This
was adopted finally as sanitary pro-
vision, cases Of poisoning having been
reported from the use of bad inks on
stamps. Another measure takes
away the option heretofore existing
relative to publication of city ordi-
nances and makes such publication OBJ
ligatory.
But two bills of more Importance
both to publishers and to the people
are one to require the secretary of
state to publish in each county di-
gest of all laws passed by the legisla-
ture, the publication to be made i'm
mediately after the adjournment of
the session. This will give general
, information to the public of the con-
tents of the new laws. The other
measure requires the publication in
each county before each general
election in two papers of opposite
political faith if there are such papers
printed the official ballot, just as it
will appear on election day. This
law is also applicable to cities for
city elections and as the law carries
an emergency clause it will be in
effect for the city elections over the
state for next month if signed by the
governor.

IL is now ceIldli1 LudJ meuuuIy val
ley, 18 miles southeast of Mountain
Home, is to have an irr igation system
under the protection and provisions of
the Carey act. G.. w. Thompson,
the Lewiston banker, and his asso-
ciates have taken the first steps
toward asking for the segregation of
the lands in the valley which are sus-
ceptible, of irrigation, their engineers
are now at work estimating reservoir
capacity, running main ditch lines
and gathering data, after which the
application to the state land board for
segregation of the lands proposed to
be irrigated will be asked for immed-
lately and the work of construction
begin soon thereafter.
Within one week after the proposal
was laid before the newly organized
Medbury Valley Development Associ
alton the settlers of the valley had
placed in the hands of the committee
composed of the officers of the asso-
citation accomplishments for the entire
acreage required together with the
contracts for the transfer of their
lands to the state to be taken sub
sequently under the provisions of the
Carey act. l.. G. Bradley, who is
representing Mr.. Thompson and his
associates, laid the proposition before
the settlers at their meeting on Feb
27 and at the meeting of March 6, one
week later, 5000 acres had been
signed for and placed in the hands of
the committee which has been en-
powered to act for the landholders of
the valley in all negotiations both
with the irrigation company and the
state land board relative to the seq
regation of the lands and the price
of the water rights. Action on the
matter will be taken bys the board
after the state engineer has examined
the project.
The water supply for the new pro-
ject is based on the heavy spring
flood run off of Bennett, Cold Springs,
Alkali and Little Canyon creeks, the
two former of which are the largest
of those having their source in
Bennett mountain from the heavy
SHOWS that annually whiten its al
titudes. Cold Springs creek carries
more water than any of them and runs
continually, but Bennett creek is 9

spring discharge reaching at times
so, 900 miners inches. The filings
on flood water in these creeks by the
! irrigation company aggregate so, 00t
miners inches, which is sufficient
, even in dry seasons to fill the pro-
posed impounding reservoir several
times. The site for this reservoir
! is on Cold Springs Creek on the mes;
above the ranch of John McGinniss
