DROWNED IN LOG DITCH
Eight Year Old Minnie Sans
Finds Watery Grave

Minnie Sans, the 8.year old
daughter of Bert Sans and his di.
corced wife, Mrs. Laufe, was
drowned Monday afternoon in the
McNish logging canal. In at
tempting to rescue her child, Mrs.
Laufe herself was saved from a
similar fate by the timely arrival
of assistance.
The unfortunate accident 'ook
place between 3 and O'Clock in
the afternoon. Mrs. Laufe and
family live near the Billings place,
half mile west of town, neal the
banks of the canal which provides
water for the McNish log pond.
The mother was catching drift
wood in the ditch and her daugher
was helping her, when the girI

Mrs. Laufe at once went to the
child's assistance, but the water
is from six to eight feet deep and
very swift, and the body was rap

WOULD OPERATE THE
CANNERY
j. r. Field Heads Company
to Take Over the En-
NETT Factory

Upon the decision of the stock
holders of the Emmett Canning
company 10 accept or reject the
Proposition of J. R. Field and E.
B. Cloud to take over the canning
factory and operate it, will depend
the future of that institution. If
accepted, Emmett is assured OF ole
OF the largest canueries in the
West.
Mr.. Field and Mr.. Cloud came
to town this morning and held
conference with the directors OF
the canning company. Their pro-
position is sus antIally as follows:
II the stockholders will agee to 40
nate their property to the new firm
at the expiration of three years of
operation. the firm will install new
machinery. including apparatus
for threshing and canning peas,
and largely increase the present
building.
Mr.. Field is the state hortIcuit-
ural inspector aud owner of fine
fruit farm on the east slope. Mr..
Cloud is a practical Gamer and
thorough business man. His pres
ent home is Twin Falls. They
emphatically contend that no other
section of the west is better located
for a cannerv than this on account
of its superior adaptability to fruit
raising. especially peaches, pears,
auricots and small fruits and they
are confident that the institution
will grow into one of the largest
factories in the west when the fruit
resources of this end OF the valley
are developed. They state that
the present machinery is absolutely
worthless and al entirely new set
will be necessary.
A meeting of the stockholders
will be held as soon as possible to
consider the proposition.

Opportunity Is Here
Get a Tail Hold

Do you realize that the suppl y
of real good irrigabie land wi II
soon be exhausted?
The immigration that is moving
west and settling upon the projects
scattered through Idaho, Utah,
Colorado and other western states
is taxing the rolling stock of rail-
roads.
DO you realize that it is costing
more and more to build irrigating
works, and that prices of lands
must steadily advance to meet the
cost of the more diff cult projects'
The day of cheap land is passing
because of these facts.
Do you realize that land under
the Canyon canal in the Emmett
country, with its water right cost

DEPOT TO Be ON NORTH SIDE
Conference of Officials of Road
and Citizens Reach a Salts
factory Agreement as to
Right of Way and
Terminals.

The extension of the Payette
Valley railroad from New Ply
mouth to Emmett this year is an
assured tact. The contract for the
grading will be awarded April 5
and active construction work will
begin before May /.
The last shadow of doubt was
removed Friday morning at con-
ference of the officials OF the road
and citizens and satisfactory
agreement was reached as to the
right of way and terminals. The
railroad party composed of c. w.
Nibley, president, and F. S. Muir
ply. secretary. of Salt Lake; H.
E. Dunn, vice president and gener-
al manager of Payette, and E. R.
Horne, manager of the Nampa
Sugar beet factory, arrived
on the morning train and spent a
couple of hours looking over the
terminal sites. The officials were
unanimous in their choice of the
north side terminals, near the Ida
ho Northern depot. At 1880 a
conference presided over by Mayor
Reilly, was held in Commercial
club rooms, which was largely
attended. Short talks were made
by Mr.. Nibley, Mr.. Murphy and
Mr.. Dunn for the railroad COM
pany. Each of these gentlemen
stated positively that the extension
of the road to Emmett had been
definitely decided upon; that II
would be completed this year.
Manager Dunn, in reponse to
question as to the service and
rates the road would give, stated
that two trains day would be run
regularly. one passenger train
and the other a mixed train. Ad-
ditional trains would be run, he
said, whenever the traffic would
warrant. As to rates he promised a
round trip rate of 3 cents and
freight rates to conform to short
distance schedules of the Short
Line and Union Pacific systems.
The speakers were enthusiastically
applauded. The meeting then got
down to business.
The proposition of the company
as stated by Mr.. Nihley, was as
follows: That the Payette Valley
Railroad company was prepared to
build the road into Emmett and
have 1t in operation on or before
January /, 1911; that they would
give bond in the sun of $25, 900
to do SO, provided the citizens of
Emmett would give bond in an
eqral sum to provide free IF charge
to the company right of way
from Falks Store and terminal
grounds in the city, This propo-
sition was agreed to and COM
mittee, composed of John Nc
Nish, V. T. Craig, c. D. Tilling-
hast. was appointed to prepare the
bonds, and the meeting adjourned
till Tuesdv night.
After lunch the -'isitors were
driven over the city and country |
ip automobiles, and they left on
the afternoon train highly enthu-
siastic over the vast resources of
this section.

The committee is confident between
100 and 200 names will be on the
bond within few days.

grants have been made cheerfully
and willingly. Just before the de-
parture of the officials for hone it
was suggested that arrangements
might be made with the Idaho
Northern to come in either on the
tracks of that road or along its
right of way, and both companies
use the same depot. Mr.. Nibley
stated that such arrangement would
be satisfactory to his company and
he would endeavor to bring If
about.

Emmett Not in 1t

At conference held in Nampa
Monday, it was decided to form an
Inter-stat baseball league with a
membership of four cities. namely,
Boise, Nampa, Baker City and La
Grande. Emmett was represented
by Ed Hayes. The proposition to
form six team league, with the
same membership as last year did
not meet with encouragement so it
is probable Emmett will not have
professional ball this year.
