HOW ONE TOWN WENT DRY
is TOLD IN NEW PLAY

Business men OF Claypoole had come
TO the conclusion that the little city
wasn't getting all that was coming TO
in the way OF preferment. The
Chamber of Commerce committee re-
ported that the Galsworthy Steel Co.
and the United Crucible Co. had re-
fused free factory sites offered by the
city. This set William Gordon, a pro
gressive young banker, thinking.
Their reason was-too many gin
mills" he said TO his associates. They
told us frankly they hadn't forgotten
the rioting and destruction OF property
during our last street car strike. They
said if this could be made dry town,
they'd be glad 10 come. That's the
kind OF an argument that makes
man think hard Their works would
boom this town enormously"

Contention that Society Spends In

MisapprehensiOn, He Says.

Declaring the Associated Charities would
welcome an inspection by any duly ap-
pointed body OF responsible citizens, and
that the organization has nothing to fear
from such an investigation, Commissioners
Rudolph. as a member OF the board OF

comes fair criticism. II endeavors 10 deal

THE contention that the society spends
too large a proportion OF its income for
salaries shows an entire misrepresentation
Of the real scope of its work. The crit
icism is based on the difference of con-
ception between the older view OF charity
and the modern view. -
1T is true that the Associated Charities
spends a large proportion of its income
for salaries. but this money goes TO buy
the services Of trained, experienced work

HIGH WATER STOPS
WORK ON SEWER
River Floods Ditch and compels Con-
tractor to Stop Work-Nothine
More can be Done Until River
Falls Considerably.

The Payette river got so high on
last Thursday as to force the con-
tractor in charge of the construction
work on the new sewer district to
stop work until such time as the
water recedes. The ditch from the
outlet at the river was dug and com
pleted to the railroad track and about
two hundred feet of pipe was LAID
before the river got so high as to
force the workmen to quit. The en-
tire flat was flooded and it is simply
impossible to work until the water
goes down. A fall of a foot more
would fix it so work could be resum-
ed at once and just as soon as the
river goes down work will be re-
sumed
When the ditch is once completed
to the railroad track and the cross
ing under the track finished larg
er force of men will be put on and
the work will be pushed as rapidly
as possible.

GREAT DAMAGE INFLICTED

Parties who have visited Caldwell
since the flood last week report that
there was indeed serious damage
done in that city and that it will
take the expenditure of considerable
money and great deal of hard
work to repair havoc wrought by In
dian Greek. The reports are to the
effect that many of the cement cross
ings and sidewalks were undermined
to the extent that they broke and
some of them will neeessitate replac-
ing almost entirely. The foundations
under several houses were washed
cut ana many Of the Easements in
the business section are said to be
from one to three feet full of silt,
sand and mud. 1t is an unfortunate
affair for our sister city but they are
made Of the stuff up there that over
comes all obstacles and Payette peo-
pie in general will wish them a
speedy complete recovery.

SPRING OUTLOOK
VERY ENCOURAGING
Farmers All. Getting eusy-orchard-
lists Enthusiastic and Stockmen
Have Optomistic View.

- Never before in her history did
Payette Valley face a spring when
there were any better conditions or
outlook for prosperity than this
year. The farmers the past few fine
days have all been preparing for
spring work and the orchardists are
enthusiastic over the outlook for fruit
this year A large number of them
are building cisterns to hold the oil
in and getting ready to handle their
orchard heaters this spring and
checkmate old Jack Frost should he
attempt to get the crop this year A
few who will use coal heaters are
busy cutting kindling and getting
ready to handle the coal. The apple
orchards in this valley wintered in
fine shape and the buds on the trees
are thick and frost is all the grower
now fears. Almost every fruit man
in the valley lays claim to the fact
that with the orchards safely through
the frost period of danger the fruit
crop this year will be the largest
the valley ever experienced.
The sheepmen are all getting pack
saddles and outfits ready to start
for the hills by the fifteenth and
while some of them have been put
to a great extra expense on account
of the scarcity and high price of
hay this winter they are all feeling
optomistic now and looking forward
to an extraordinarily good summer
The heavy falls of snow in the hills
with its attendant moisture is sure
to make the ranges extra good this
year and they will profit
Taken as a whole the outlook in
deed is very encouraging and with
the past week of fine weather the
Rum of summer work can be felt
Ia with a continuation of it
work will have begun in earnest.
