IRRIGATION PLANS
 OF SOUTH SIDE OWNERS
A Meeting to Arrange for Permanent
 Water Supply.

sections of government land in the districts known as townships 2, s-5 e and 2, s6, e, held a meeting in the town hall on Tuesday evening for the purpose of forming organizations for the purpose of arranging for a means whereby the water supply in these dis tricts can be made permanent. While the two townships join, the condi- tions. are different; consequently a committee was chosen to represent each township.
 Those appointed from 2. s-5, were NJ. c. Phelps, George Lewis and A. Mortensen. This committee has been instructed to confer with the stock holders of the water users association. with a view to utilization, as this township will come under the proposed extension of the Highland canal
 A petition to the water users asso- citation is now being drawn up, and will be given to Guy Attaway to solicit signatures today.
 The second committee was from those who have located on township ?. s-6, e, and is composed of w. A Coffman. Joseph A. Stewart and Rev. c. Sidney Maddox. The proposed ex- tension of the Highland. as at present outlined, will not affect the holdings of these parties, and it may be that drilled wells will be resorted to. This is left with the committee, which will take immediate steps to see what can be secured with respect to the question of water

PARENTS WORDS AS SPUR
 ID WHITE SLAVE BILLS
Letters to Be Part of Arguments for Proposed Protective Enactments in Illinois.

Chicago, Feb. 2O.-(Special Corre- spondence of The Republican, edies by scores are told in letters from homes blighted by the traffic in girls who are systematically ensnared, be- trayed and sold into white slavery in red-light districts of cities of this and other countries. Among the letters which have poured in since open war fare was begun on white slavery and have been turned over either to the Illinois Vigilance association, the United States district attorneys or the states attorneys, those from mothers or fathers tell a similar narrative that more than confirms all assertions that there is a diabolical search for beauti- full victims on trains, in the country and in amusement places of the cities.
 One letter just turned over to the Vigilance association from a mother in New England is typical of most, and contains an arraignment of condi- tions in New England, particularly the factory towns, which is startling. The letter was received by editors of the Woman's World as a result of articles by United States District Attorney Sims and others in an effort to expose the proportions of the traffic and needed laws for suppressing it, and will be sent with other letters, peti- tions and resolutions to the Illinois legislature to aid the enactment of proposed bills making the procuring of girls, the holding of girls in bondage of debt, and the living upon earnings of white slaves a felony. punishable by suitable penitentiary terms.
 My daughter was enticed away while we lived in Gloucester, Mass, by two women,'' wrote this mother. She was gone two months before we found her. I made a fuss, and the city marshal said he never thought that the woman I accused of taking my daughter was woman of that kind But I found out for myself. They let my daughter loose in Boston in a house that theatrical people of the evil sort frequent. She tried to do the best she could to earn enough to keep her, but could not and live de- cent, and did like all the rest of them, but at last had to come home, and such a wreck! A few days more, and she never would have come. Weeks and weeks we doctored her. She is much better now, but never will be the same.

 pear here, and there is not much said about it; some are found dead, and no clew to who did the deed. You can hardly read a paper without an article of some girl missing or murdered, or drowned. The young men and boys need looking after; they are led astray just as much as the young girls. Par ents want to watch their boys and find amusement for them. I can't see where people are any better off here than the negro slaves were. That is. I mean the poor people that work in the cotton mills and woolen mills. too, and shoe factories; the wages are not enough to keep the family decent, and the consequence is the mother goes to the mill and the children as soon as they can dodge the school age"

GOOD TIME ID TEST
 4 HEATING SYSTEM
The One in the New High School
 Building Worked We'll.

The wind blowing off from the sur rounding snow covered peaks has ere ated chilly atmosphere in this end of the valley for the past few days. Its effect was perhaps not more evident anywhere than in the large rooms in the new Union High school building, and as this provided an excellent test for the new heating plant it was start ed going. The effect was almost in stantaneous, and in twenty minutes the building was heated to the desired temperature in every room from base ment to top floor.
 Next to the rapidity with which the heating was accomplished,~ was the evenness of the temperature, not only throughout each room. but in the en- tire building.
