PLANT

of the citizens know. the city
pumping plant is SO located on
the Gunnison river that when the
high waters come there is al
ways more or less danger of the
plant being flooded, the engines
and pumps stopped and the
water supply of the city being
cut off for an indefinite period
From year to year Supt Vedder
has watched the situation carefully
and while the water has not reached
dangerously high stage, so far as
serious damage to the water plant is
concerned. every year, it has done
so during two or three springs in the
last five or six years.
This winter the SHOWS in the noun
tains of Colorado have been the heav-
lest in the memory of the Oldest in
habitants and unless cold and hot
spells of weather alternate and tend
to let the thaw come gradually there
will be terrible rush of waters down
the rivers along about the last of
April and during the month of May.
OF course under any conditions the
rivers are certain to be very high but
If the spring opens early and the
warm weather keeps up through the
spring months without any alternat-

VIII boom as never before.
Supt. Vedder yesterday put force
of men to work building an additional
high protecting dixie around the walls
of the pumping plant. facing the riv-
er. This dixie is being made of sacked
dirt. reinforced by heavy timbers. It
will be made very strong. With this
additional dixie, made higher than
any of the otner dikes and with other
precautions taken Supt. Vedder be-
lieves that he can protect the plant
and system from grave danger even
If the river rises several feet higher
than any stage of water ever re-
corded at the local pumping plant
and several times in the past the
water has gotten so high that it has
covered the floor of the pumping
plant.
The protection of the pumping
plant is a most important piece of
work and Supt. Vedder is wise in taxi
ing these precautions while he has
plenty of time. He has had fierce
battles with the Gunnison floods sew
eral times in the past and has always
won out and we believe that he VIII
win out in the comiig battle which
promises to be the worst contest OF
its kind he had ever been put up
against.

This is Certain
The Proof That Spanish Fork Readers
Cannot Deny.

Cannot Deny.
What could furnish stronger evidence
of the efficiency of any remedy than the
test of time? Thousands of people tes-
tify that Doans Kidney Pills cure per-
manantly.
Home endorsement should prove un-
doubtedly the merit of this remedy
Years ago your friends and neighbors
testified to the relief they had derived
from the use of Doans Kidney Pills.
They now confirm their testimonials.
They say time has completed the test.
Reuben Marshall, First Ward, Span
ish Fork, Utah, says: The public
statement | gave in favor of Doan's
Kidney Pills in 1907 still holds good.
! am glad to again recommend them.
Attacks of kidney complaint bothered
me for number of years and there
was a persistent dull ache across the
small of my back. The kidney secre-
tions were scanty and painful of pas
sage, and gave proos that my kidneys
were out of order. One day happen

had Doan's Kidney Pills recommended
to me. ! procured box and began
their use, and to my delight, prompt
followed. Doan's Kidney Pills acted
directly on my kidneys and in few
days every symptom of kidney complaint
was relieved. am certain that any
one who gives this remedy fair trial
cannot be otherwise than pleased with
the results derived

Little Stories Of Travel
BY JOSEPH HUGHES

| reached Philadelphia Friday, Sep.
TENDER oath, in safety and good health
after journey of $500 miles across
Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Puget
Sound by steamer, Canada from Van
couver to Toronto, thence to Buffalo,
New York and Philadelphia. My trip
is fraught with so much interest, the
country passed over gave evidence of
such beauty, of grandeur. of awe and
of the sublime, that | would be very
pleased if you would give space in your
paper for series of letters describing
the same.
My journey east covers a period of
twelve days. left home on Sunday
Sept 18th, going as far as Salt Lake
City, spending the day and part of
Monday with the folks in the city.
Monday afternoon | went to Ogden
over the ID. e. r. g., and that night
left over the Oregon Short Line for
Seattle, Washington.
Tuesday morning | arose from my
berth to look out upon an almost limit
less area of unsettled country. Millions
of acres still remain to come under The
magic wand of Snake River water and
of the Idaho husbandman and his fair
helpmate. o, my Idaho, my Idaho,
what great future there is in store
for thee! This the ldahoian sings from
morning until night from Gov. Brady
to the most humble servant in the state.
Civilization has always followed the
course of rivers, of lakes and their
great emptying places, the seas and
the oceans. There is no exception to
this rule in Idaho. The railroad follows
the entire course of the Snake River
and then continues it's way along the
Columbia. On each side of these
mighty streams are dotted here and
there, villages, towns and cities, and all
show manifestations of thrift, industry
and prosperity.
To tell adequately the story of such
a country, one would have to discuss
extendedly the fullest results of vine
culture and the products of practically
every type of fruit tree known in this
latitude; the great annual rush of mil
lions of bushels of grain to scores of
warehouses; the picture of well stocked,
modern homes, the ranging of mammoth
herds on many hills; the resounding
blasts from many mines-lt would be
the same story as told of Utah. The
overcoming of the waste places of the
earth and making them fruitful. 1t
would be a story of railroads and allied
enterprise, of the great impending con-
test between the water and the rail
haul; it would be story of power de-
velopment, of new manufactures and
of every condition, commercially and
otherwise that makes the home beauti-
full and the people therein happy and
contented
Such thoughts occur to a person as
he looks out on the checkered picture
before him. leave Idaho now and ask
you, dear readers, to visit with me in
Oregon and its great city, Portland
