Council Meeting.

Outside of regular routine bust
ness only two matters of any i'm
portance We're considered by the city
council Monday night. One of them
was the rendering of $3.50. 15 to the
Bannock Engineering company
engineers of the city waterworks, in
settlement of the balance due them
for planning and experimenting the
installation of the system. This
matter has hung fire for nearly a
year. The company put in a bill for
S700. The difference between this
sum and the amount rendered was
disallowed by the council. The other
matter related to the replacing of
culverts covering the Womack ditch
at street crossings, which were torn
out during the grading of streets
last fall. The council agreed to re-
build the culverts, using tile instead
of wooden boxes.

FORBES WILL APPEAL
Waterworks Controversy to be
Carried to the Supreme
Court.

j. H. Forbes, who was in the city
Saturday on his way home from
Falks Store, where he is rebuilding
the river bridge which was washed
out about two months ago, announc-
ed that his firm would sppeal the
waterworks case against the city.
The controversy grew out of the
construction of the city waterworks,
of which orbes & Ross were the
contractors. When the plant was
completed the city refused to pay
the contractors the full amount of
the contract price on account of the
pump pit not being water tight.
The city rebuilt the ipit at an ex-
pense of $500. This amount was
deducted from the final payment of
$280O to the Forbes company. Suit
was brought against the city and at
the December term of the district
court judgment was given Forbes
for S2005. The Forbes company
claim they were entitled TO the en-
tire amount or none at all.

Upsets Forestry Policy.

The recent opinion Of the su-
preme court in the Marble Greek
case if sustained upon appeal will
upset the forest reserve policy with
in the state of Idaho, according to a
declaration made by a member OF
the land board. "It destroys many
policies of forest service, he said,
land will throw the reservation
open to the state, which Will be es-
sentially entitled to right of-way
to and from its land, compi ising
all sections 16 and 36. Such sec.
tions are situated three miles apaTe
aud should this timber be seld to
lumber companies, tbei1 fight to
build roads and use the reserve in
getting out their products attaches
The state can also lease such lands
for grazing purposes, which would
necessi'at the use of the range by
stockmen tVom trailing stock across
the reservation. State leases ot
lands Tor this purpose have in the
past been vigorously opposed by
the forest service. Recently it was
agreed that the state should lease
such land to the users of the sur
rounding: range, which would
have, in effect, tended to defer a
clash in the courts between the for
est service aud the state.

Short Line May Build

the Short Line has decided to build
the much talked of main line
through Boise. to either Payette
or Weiser. While the statement is
hard to believe, Oh account of the
rough chal acter of the country
over which it would be necessary
to build, there appears to be some
foundation for the story. While
we hope it will prove to be true,
we have our doubts, in view Of the
building of the Snake river line to
Ontario and thee Extensive improve

BIG SAWMILL IN VALLEY
Emmett's Claims Being Given
Consideration.

The Pavette valley is TO be the
site OF an immense sawmill. Where
it will be located is a matter OF
future consideration, but the
natural advantages which Emmett
possesses, and the fact thai a'trunk
line OF railroad is to be her good
fortune in the near future, has
placed this city in the possible To-
cation class
The Prestei mill at Payette was
recently acquired BY J. T. Crosby,
Michigan lumberman, on ac
count OF the standing timber
which it owns. The disadvantages
which the Prestel establishment
in the past has had to contend with
in driving its logs down the river
is regarded as a serious drawback
and may result in its removal 10
another location. Mr.. Crosby was
in Emmett several weeks ago and
is cognizant of the splendid To-
cation which this city offers tor
such a mill.

head, dropped him on his shoulders,
but before the could pin him to the
mat Zbyszcko turned the tables and

GETS AWAY FROM
MEXICAN JAIL
Louis Fleischner, Wealthy
Manufacturer, Holds
Leading Role.

Nogales, Ariz., June 1O.-Louis
Fleischner, president of the Ameri-
can Clothing company, of Nogales,
Mexico, who was arrested on Febru-
airy 26 on charge of contrabanding
and has been detained since then
awaiting trial, made a sensational
escape from prison and reached the
American side of the boundary last
night. In doing so he had to elude
twenty-five rurales comprising the
prison and his personal guard. The
rurales were in command of Lieut..
Hermosillo, who is held responsible
for the escape.
An appeal will be made to Wash
ington to assist in the capture of
Fleischner and his delivery over to
the Mexican authorities. 1t is al
legged that Mexican officers are
watching trains out of this city in
order to keep informed as to the
vi tHO IuSItlNS.
Fleischner is a son-in-law of Man
uel Mascarenas, for twenty years in
the Mexican consular service in this
country. He is a wealthy land own
er and banker and his wife and chill
dren live on the Mexican side
Fleischner was arrested in February
on the charge that a large factory
which he maintained in Nogales,
Mexico, was merely a cloak for ex-
tensive smuggling operations. He
employed ninety men and women,
nearly all of whom were arrested but
leased.
