NEW DAM IS READY
! - ! FOR FLOOD
WATERS
LAST STROKE OF WORK is DONE
ON STRUCTURE AT MOUTH
OF BIG BLACkFOOT.

The last stroke of work on the power
dam at the mouth Of the Big Black
foot was done yesterday and the
structure is ready for the floods; the
dam was practically completed Mon
day before the rise in the river came
but there remained a little to do yes
terday morning before it could be pro-
nounced complete. Before noon, how
ever, Mr.. Inch gave out the word that
the work was finished and everything
was in readiness for the high water,
should it come.
The preparation for the survey of the
proposed electric railway to Hamilton
was begun yesterday and it is expected
that next Tuesday Engineer Bicken-
bach and his corps of surveyors will
be in the field, picking out a route to
the capital of the Bitter Root coun-
try. As fast as possible the equipment
for the work up the valley will be as
sembled and there will be no delay
in getting the work done, once it is
started.
Engineer Bickenbach is veteran
in electric railway construction and
his familiarity with the work will fa-
cilitate the location Of the line through
the valley. 1t is estimated that the
work will require not more than two
weeks for it's preliminary stage and
that the securing of right of way
can be undertaken by the middle of
May
1t is in this obtaining of a right of
way that the towns along the line
can be of assistance; the business men
of Missoula, Stevensville, Hamilton
and the other Bitter Root towns have
signified their willingness to aid in
every way possible and the farmers
along the line have, in many instances,
announced their desire to do all they
can. Mr. Clark, through Mr. Wethey,
has stated that the road will be built
if the right of way can be secured
It should be easy

Prompt RECOGNITION,

Washington April 27,-Prompt recog-
milton will be given to the new gov
ernment of Turkey by the administra- :
tion when official news CT the new
order of things reaches washington
Today the officials had to depend en-
tirely on the Associated Press dis
patches. as Ambassador Leisman is
evidently awaiting the formal an
nouncement of the selection of the
new sultan by the Turkish foreign
office
Speculation is rife as to what will
happen under the reorganized govern
ment, it being recognized that in the
present condition nobody can safely
predict what the outcome will be, vet
the universal opinion is that the
young Turks party is equal to the
trust imposed, new era with bright
prospects is in store for Turkey.
Important Element.
The personal qualities of the new
sultan, which are well known to Of
ficials in Washington, are considered
an important element to be reckoned
with. His incarceration for so many
years has removed him from the sus-
picion of despotism, corruption and
cruelty that attaches to his predeces-
sor.
The opinion is expressed that with
the new sultan on the throne, and
with the young Turks party in full
power, there will be a rehabilitation
of the relations with the countries of
the world and opportunity offered for
a more satisfactory treatment of the
missionary question. which has been
a troublesome one, due to the fanati-
cism of the followers of Islam, and
which on many occasions has led to
diplomatic representations to Turkey.

where he will take up his residence,
the new sultan was enthusiastically
cheered by great crowds. Enver Bey
one of the prominent leaders of the

a tremendous ovation.
The rejoicing seemed genuine and

Not Regretted.


London, April 27.-The deposition
Of Abdul Hamid as sultan of Turkey,
so far as he is personally concerned,
is not regretted in England. For
years past English diplomats have
been fighting against the ntrigues
emanating from the Yildiz palace, and
they never knew whether the sultan
was their enemy of their friend
The effect that the deposition is
likely to have in Turkey, however, is
another thing, and fears freely ex-
pressed today that the new admins
tration probably will have a more
difficult task in overcoming the pretu-
dices of the people in the provinces
than has been experienced in Con-
stantinope. For this reason it has
been expected that the young Turks
would allow Abdul Hamid to remain
on the throne, but shorn of his power,
as concession to the religious feel
ing of the country and out of respect
to the different parties.

Il am pleased to become the first

my successor will improve upon me,
but you may rely upon my doing my
best. 1 also have suffered oppression
and can therefore enter into the feel
ings of my fellow sufferers Let us
endeavor to work together for the
welfare of the country"
When the assembly deputation ar
rived at the Yildiz the fetva of the
sheik- -ul-islam was handed to Ali Die
Vad Bey, the first secretary, for COM
munication to Abdul Hamid, who in
an inner apartment was guarded by
10 eunuchs. Djevad Bey tried to gain
admittance by knocking, and after
this was continued for Is minutes, the
door was opened and Abdul Hamid
appeared He accepted the fetva
without comment.
The deputation was then ushered
into his presence and the spokesman
said:
You no longer reign over US"
Abdul Hamid gave deep sigh of
relief upon being informed that no de-
signs We're entertained against his
life.

the manure boxes, the garbage cans and the alley. As the nights grow cold, rains become more plentiful, the flies will try to get into the houses and they then become more of menace than during the summer, notwith- standing they are less numerous.
 "Therefore, special effort should be put forth to keep the flies out of the houses and stores, especially in bad weather. If they cannot get into a house on a cold night many will be drowned and on a windy day some will be blown away. Don't stop fighting flies because it s getting colder-rather double your efforts. Fly paper or fly poison in the house during the cool or wet days of the fall will kill more flies than in August"

WILDCATTING IN EAST IS
 THING OF BYGONE DAYS

He stated that the Arizona United people were certainly showing their confidence in their rich holdings by the manner in which they have taken hold since the reorganization of the company, in putting the number of men to work, developing and in erect ing the l25-ton smelling plant. This means the expenditure of a great amount of money, and while they are taking the lead in the development ar present, they are only one of the sev- eral companies in Johnson who have confidence in the district, and are busy sinking to reach a depth of at least 1000 feet. Among these companies, be- son Copper company, Black Prince, Ari- zona X Michigan Development, Key stone Copper and Coehise Mining com panies.
 Regarding the Dragoon district, Stroud stated the proving of the Cen turion property has demonstrated the district, and has strengthened his own firm opinion, and he was confident that it would be but a short time now until his company have excellent holdings, and bid fair to develop into one of the best properties in the district.

BENSON, September 30.-Aecording to Ernest Stroud, vice president of the Arizona & Cleveland company, who has just returned from the east, to his home in Benson, wildeatting in Arizona is already thing of the past.
 Stroud whose properties are located in the Gunnison range, two and q half miles east of Dragoon and show high grade galena, has just returned from three months trip in the east in the interest of his company. He stated that everything looked good for his com pany to commence development work on their property in the very near fu- ture.
 In speaking of Arizona Stroud said that Arizona was one of the most ad- vertised sections of the great southwest owing to her wonderful mineral pOssi- bilities. Capital is ready and willing to invest where they can be assured of good holdings but that the time of wildeatting has been relegated to the rear. It was strictly business propo- sitiOn with the eastern moneyed bushes man.
 Yesterday he made a trip to Dragoon and Johnson was surprised and pleased to note the air of prosperity shown there since his last visit several months ago and more than pleased, as it em- phasized his own opinion that these two districts were sure to become fore most among the prominent mining dis tricts of Arizona.
