lot Of the Dietrich segregation that had
never been surveyed oy the government
and early last spring Gordon Smith was
placed on the job After his work was
finished the Idaho Irrigation company
extended their segregation farther to
the north and Joe Vernon was employed
to extend the government survey TO
cover the new territory In tieiug his
south corners with the north corners
established by Gordon Smith. Mr..
Vernon finds that Smiths work was as
nearly perfect as any man could make
it and stamps him as an engineer of ex-
ceptional merit As to the the work
performed in earlier years by a govern
ment engineer with which Mr. Vernon's
survey joined on the north. no such
word of commentator could be made
The corners did not tie so satisfactorily.
1t is not every engineer who can plat

receive the approval of government
officials and pass the muster of skilled
engineers who have had long experience
in government work and Mr. Vernon is
to be congratulated for the successful
outcome of the work.

THE FIGURES
ARE WRONG
German Ministry of the In

Want Protection.

Berlin. March 31.-The German
foreign office, replying TO request
from the state department at Wash
ington for official information re-
garding wages and other costs In the
production OF al articles manufacl-
ured in Germany and covered by the
American tariff, has turned over TO
the American embassy here a docu-
ment which Is now on its way ~
Washington. The answer is type
written on folio sheets, which to
gether make a bundle several inches
thick.
The state department. after find
ing that the replies from American
ccnsuls to The circular note OF last
June on this subject, owing to the
unwillingness of French, British ala
German manufacturers to cupply u
trade rival with facts upon which
to base a hostile tariff, directed the
American ambassadors in Europe q
invite such Information through the
respective foreign Offices.
Following out these instructions
IL is understood that Ambas iador
Hill addressed the German foreign
office last December. He pointed
out that it was to the interests of
Germany to have facts, and not i'm
perfect information, laid before the
American congress for the equable
framing of tariff schedules. The FOE.
eign office came tc> this point of view
and sent to the government Of all the
German states copies of the state do.

The foreign c afiee contents itself

wages paid as laid before the ways

the industries affected by the Amer

1t Is I'm this comparison that the
material for a sharp controversy has
been found. The ministry OF the
interior took the figures pointed in
the reports of the hearings Of the
ways and means committee rs ba-
IS upon which to make contrasts
with the figures officially supplied
by the German chambers OF COM

London, March, 31.--The militant
suffragists made, another attempt to
raid the house OF commons in a
search for Premier Asquith yester-
day afternoon, but were quickly scat

policemen.
"a deputation of twen.y-seven rep

The deputation found all the en-
frances to parliament barred, and in
spite of the courage they displayed
in risking being trampled under the
feet OF the policemen's horses their
combined rushes to reach an entrance
were abortive.
The police began removing the

dozen OF the women were taken fato
custody. None OF the halter Lno ~
leaders took part in the raid.
The women arrested will be charg-

they used their fists and umbrellas
