NO OUTSTANDING NARRENTS

The Tribune extends its congratu-
lations to the people of Caldwell upon
the excellent condition of the water
works fund of the city. There are no
warrants outstanding against this
fund, and there is between $4,000
and $15pO.Q0 in the city fund, The
Tribune must have been in error three
weeks ago when it stated that there
were outstanding warrants, as no call
has been made since that date. 1t is
not likely that our present administra-
ton would continue to pay interest on
outstanding warrants when there was
money in the fund. 1t is altogether q
most creditable showing. However, in
case anyone has warrant against
this fund, the public would be glad of
the information. It sometimes hap,
pens that treasurers are loath to call
IN the warrants as such actions tend
to decrease the balance in the bank.
The bank balance was for many years
the chief attraction to the treasurer's
Office, Anyone of us would be careful
not to do away with our chief attrac-
ton. 1t may be that the habit OF
years has not been overcome,
If there be no outstanding war
rants, Caldwell is to be congratulated.
II there be outstanding warrants, and
money in the fund, the administration
should let the people know the why
for of it. They have a right to this
knowledge.

The ALFALFA WEEVH

An insect, whose origin and anti
cedents are unknown to scientists,
has made it's appearance in Utah, to
the direct loss to the farmers of hun
dreds of thousands of dollars. Its
origin, habits and the methods of
graduating it are unknown; but are
the subject of deep study BY the agri-
culturists and scientists in the Utah
schools. The insect is commonly
called the alfalfa Weevil. According
to the Herald-Republican of Salt
Lake, the alfalfa weevil has cost the
farmers OF Salt Lake county $780,
10000 this year by the destruction OF
the hay crop. 1t is estimated that out
of the 10000 acres planted to alfalfa
in that county, $4,000 are infested
with the pest. The authorities went
to work immediately, to temporarily
prevent the spread of the pest and to
ultimately eradicate it. They are in
teresting adjoining counties in pre-
venting its spread. 1t is hoped that
they may learn enough of its habits
to enable them to overcome it, before
it's ravishes extend over much more
territory in Utah or in adjoining
states. The destruction of the bug is
of prime Importance to the farmers of
all the western states. The alfalfa
crop is one of the mainstays and chief
supports. Anything that threatens
it's injury or destruction cannot fail
to arouse the gravest apprehension to
US all.
The insect is first noticeable as a
green worm, but soon changes to a
brown bug.

ness. Indiana went into the railroad
building business and nearly bank
rupted herself. Finally the people
there decided to pocket their loss,
cherish their experience, and get out
of the railroad business. Today it is
not safe to mention county or state
construction and operation of rail-
roads in the state of Indiana. 1t is
said that it was Indiana settlers who
placed a clause in the Oregon state
constitution prohibiting that state
from engaging in the business. Those
men had back home all the exper-
fence they wanted. The only benef7
Charles of county owned and operated
railroads are the promoters and those
who finally buy up the properties for
little or nothing.
If the people of Ada county are
wise, they will vote down the PROPOSE
ton when it comes to the election.
They have plenty to do now without
engaging in backing up fool rail
roads.

shall also state the proposed method
of irrigating the lands within the pro-
posed district Said petition must be
accompanied by bond in double the
amount of the cost of organizing the
proposed district, conditioned that the
bondsmen will pay all costs, in case
the organization of the district is not
effected. The petition will be present
ed at regular meeting of the board of
commissioners and shall be published
for at least three weeks prior to the
meeting of the board. When the pc
tition is presented the beard shall set
a time for hearings upon the same
which shall not be less than 80 nor
more than sixty days thereafter. A
copy of the map of the proposed dis
trict, estimate of cost and description
of the boundaries shall also be filed
with the state engineer, who shall
thoroughly examine the same and pass
upon the feasibility of the proposed
works. If the report of the state en-
glneer be unfaVorable the commits
sioneFs shall refuse to further consider
the petition. In case his report is ia
voFable, the commissioners will then
order a special election to determine
whether said district shall be organ
lied. At this election the people will
also elect either three or five directors
as the commissioners may determine.
The election will be conducted as near
as possible in the same manner as other
elections are conducted. If majority
of the property owners are in favor of
the organization of said district, under
the name and style designated by the
commissioners, they shall declare, by
an order entered on their minutes, that
such territory is duly organized as an
irrigation district. Districts have the
power to construct, maintain and OPP
crate irrigation systems; to issue
bonds for the payment of the same; to
levy and collect taxes for the main
tenance of the district and the liqui-
dalton of the bonded indebtedness.

A PRACTICAL SOLUTION

Senator Borah has evolved and Sec
rotary Ballinger has approved a
bonding plan, whereby the government
reclamation projects may be completed
without delay. The plan proposed by
Senator Borah is for the government to
issue bonds in the sum of $4,000, 100000
for the purpose of completing the pro-
jects now under way. These bonds are
to be secured and finally liquidated
by the receipts from the sale of public
lands. The government figured that
the receipts from the public lands
would be enough to continue the works
uninterruptedly. These moneys have
fallen short. There are only two
means of raising money, by direct ap-
preparation by congress or issuing
bonds. Unless recourse is had to one
or the other of these two means, there
lis no telling when the reclamation
projects will be completed. The cost OF
these projects were estimated by the
government engineers. 1t is now
known that the estimates were toe
small. The cost is far exceeding the
original estimates. with the result
above stated. Unless the government
do something the service will fall i'm
measureably in the estimation of the
people; the government will lose
hundreds of thousands of dollars in
delays; the people will suffer endless
and needless hardships.
AS stated Secretary Ballinger Ii

is now up to him to secure the support

We may rest assured that the secre-
tary of the interior will not fail in
prporely presenting the matter to the
president. He so greatly enjoys the
confidence of the chief executive that
we apprehend little doubt of his sue
cess.
Senator Borah has offered a pFaeti'
cal solution of the difficulty.

THE SMALL THINGS.

1t is the small things OF life that

his undOing.
Governor Hay of Washington has
reveled in the glory of the reformer.
He has posed before the people as one
executive who believes in the enforce
ment of the laws, and the fight has
been a most bitter one, because many
of those against whom the governor
sought to enforce the laws, are pow
erful politicians, and powerful poll
ticians in a state like Washington
where the game of politics is science
means very much. The governor has
called the legislature into special ses-
sion for the purpose of impeaching an
officer accused of malfeasance in Of
flee. He has investigated many
charges, not alone against his official
but against other officials, and into
various secret political organizations
of which members of the courts of the
state have been charged with member
ship.
But the governor himself was re-
Gently observed to violate petty law
which he himself had signed and per-
mitted to become a law-one against
giving tips. He publicly acknowledges
that he has violated that law and
boastingly asserts that he expects
to do so and does not fear prosecu-
ton.
If the governor thought it bad
law, he had no reason to sign it, thus
making it law. If he became con-

way to let the people know that fact
is not by Haunting violation of the

and rigid enforcement.

be enforced. There is too much law

HOW TO IMPROVE THE COM.
PLEXION.

Frequent bathing is, OF course, of
great value for blood purifying pur-
poses. The pores of the skin must be
kept active, and if they are not
cleansed at frequent intervals, at least
once or twice a week, the impurities
that they might otherwise eliminate
are. often thrown back into the circu-
latiOn and may result in serious erup-
lions. l should say that one should
take a soap of hot water bath for the
entire body at least once or twice
weekly. A cold bath, or at least a
cold sponge each day, can also be
taken with advantage, though this is
not absolutely necessary by any
means.
A dry friction bath should, howev-
er, be taken at frequent intervals, as
it is really of more value than the
cold bath for increasing the activity
of the pores of the skin. This dry
friction bath can be taken with two

RAILROAD DISTRICTS BAD THING

A petition has been filed with the
commissioners of Ada county asking
that railroad district be created in
that county, under the provisions of
law passed. the closing hours of the
tenth session of the Idaho legislature.
The tenth session closed its career by
passing this most ill-advised measure.
The members, freely and publicly ac-
kpowledged that they did not know
what the bill was nor what it provided
for; but as it seemed to be demanded,
thought it best to enact the law. The
courts viii undoubtedly declare the
law null and void, as it is certainly
eontrary to the spirit of the state
constitution.
The law enables the people of any
particular, section Of the state to or
