There are only two men in Hayti
who have refused to subscribe for the
Herald by saying they simply "did not
want it, which showed how little in
terest they felt in the town. Lately we
have heard the names of both of these
parties mentioned for city Office, and
it makes our blood run cold. A man
who will not lend his aid to start u
paper in his home town, that has no
paper, certainly is not the right man
for city Office, not even for dog pelter,
and we are going to do our part to
keep that class of men out of Office,
not that we want that class of names
on our subscription books, for we do
not, but because that class of men
would do the town no good and only
want the Office for some selfish motive
of their own and would prove stumb-
ling block and hindrance in the way
OF the development and progress of
of the town. We are for wide-awake,
public spirited, progressive men, and
any other kind will do we'll TO stay out
the city's affairs.

Few towns are so favored as Hayti in
the way of public square-one whole
square, worth thousands of dollars
aud The wonder TO US is that our citi-
zens have not appreciated this fact
long before now. just now Portage
vile is thinking of buying public
park. and about two years ago Skies
ton bought one, while Hayti already has
two large and spacious squares that
would be the envy of any city, the
public square and the school square,
both of which can be converted into
beautiful parks.

The Dunklin Democrat has completed

seems that the Herald has made its
influence felt for good, and while we
might have done even more, the peo-
pie must remember that Hayti was
deep in the mire. and it requires time
to bring changes.
In the first place, Hayti was suffer-
ing from IN ore than one cause, and we
found her in stupor. Hayti, in her
downs; she has suffered many hard
blows and has felt the kiss of Judas
more than once, and for this reason
the people were easy to discourage,
and being without newspaper for the
past two years, dissolution was about
TO set in.
The reaction from the county seat
conflict of 1898 was quickly nipped in
the bud by the Williams heirs; the
public square title went by defalt in
open court: the local opion election
and the second county seat defeat fol-
lowed; the panic came: the factory
cosed and railroad work was sus-
nded, and worst of all, the people
were divided into factions.
The greatest efforts of the Herald
has been to overcome the latter and
To get the people in harmony and in
line realizing that nothing can be ac-
complished without harmony and
united action. We believe the spirit
of the Herald in this spect has ac-
complished great good. and no more
friction well occur between the wet and
dry elements when the general good
of the town is at stake.
We see indications of fairness and
goodwill on all sides, and at the ON
ing election we honestly believe that
the very best people and the rank and
file of the vets and drys will work to-
gether for the same candidates, and
men will be elected TO Office regardless
of politics and solely on their merits
as being reliable, progressive, public
spirited men, who will treat all parties
the town in general.
The good women of the town have
organized civic league to promote
civic pride and civic improvement and
they will endeavor to make "A City
Beautiful
The property owners are now sub
scribing the money to grade and fence
the square and will assist the civic
league III every way possible to carry
out their plans.
Now, our next fOndest desire
is stock law, and the majority of
the people are with us. We can never
have pretty streets, avenues and lawns
and nice shade trees until we get u
stock law. This is matter to he
voted on by the people, but no man
should be elected to any Office in Hay
ii who is not in favor of stock law.

Boise, oct. 1.-Two big irrigation prof.
ects for Idaho have been announced an4
will reclaim 10000 acres. one is the re-
vival of the old Mountain Home project,
embracing 10000 acres, to be taken over
by the Twin Falls North Side company.
The other project embraces $4,000 acres in
the southern part of Cassa county. ex-
tending from the Utah state line north to
within ten miles of the Minidoka govern
ment project.
The Twin Falls North Side company. in
which the Kuhn brothers Of Pittsburg are
the moving spirits, and which has already
reclaimed nearly 100000 acres of Idaho
land, has decided to extend its big canal
westward for a distance of forty miles to
the Mountain Home section. The project
had been promoted unsuccessfully by
John II. Garrett. and for years settlers
have been waiting for water.
The extension of the Twin Falls North
Side company's canal will be an extensive
piece of work. 1t will be necessary to
impound the waters of the Snake river.
This will be done in connection with the
BUhl interests. who have secured the seq
regatiOn for the Bruneau project of 60OOVy
acres. which will be WateTed by an eX-
tension of the Twin Falls south side ca
nal 1t is proposed to construct an i'm
