IDAHO SENATOR CHAMPIONS THE

Declares II Violation of Constitution
to Withhold Power Sites From the
Use of Western States, Who Pay
Millions Into Treasury.

Observation-Disclosures we want Is a
sane, practical conservation policy,
under reasonable regulation, permit
ting the development of our natural
resources in accordance with the ma
tural laws Of progress and industrial
growth" declared Senator Borah in
addressing the senate on Monday dur
ing the consideration of conservation
legislation.
Mr.. Borah spoke as the champion
of the west, ut would be magni6-
cent scheme, indeed he exclaimed,
ito compel the whole great west to
hold its vast resources in idleness, de-
prive its people of their enjoyment
and use and compel them to pay tri'
butte to those resources of which you
have taken possession here in the
east and developed at your own free
will
Contending that it was a violation
of every principle OF the constitution
to withhold power sites from the use
of the western states, Mr.. Borah in
quired: IF Illinois or Massachusetts
receives thousands or even millions of
dollars as a revenue for their water
power and Idaho receives moth ng
but, on the other hand, pays millions
into the federal treasury. is there
equality among the states?' He said
that the contention that natural re-
sources in state belonged to all the
people of the United States was all
right In theory, but that in practice
it was utterly untrue.

From the Forest Service.

For the fiscal year which ended June

Noteworthy is the especially heavy in

rose by over Is per cent, in Idaho by
over IS per cent, and in Oregon by
nearly so cent. The increases are the
result of activity in National Forest tim

THAT MASS MEETING AT DAYTON
Was Held Last Saturday Night and
Committees Appointed

The following report of the mass
meeting held in Dayton last Saturday
evening is taken from the Virginia City
Chronicle:
Representatives from Silver City, Fern
ley and Dayton met at the temporary
court house at Dayton to consider the
proposed separation of the northern por-
ton of Lyon County from its present
geographical lines, and its addition to one
of the adjacent counties in this locality.
The meeting was an enthusiastic one,
con at some length, the outcome was
the appointment of several committees
to make all exhaustive inquiry into the
financial condition, bonded indebted
ness, tax ratio, ETC., of some OF the
neighboring counties likely to be af-
fected by the proposed change, and also
to prepare statement of the taxable
property located in the section of Lyon
County that would be sliced off the pres
ent map of the county, in case the move
to do so is carried through to a success
full finish.
The action Saturday night shows that
the promoters of new deal" i'll Lyon
County are going about the matter in
businesslike manner and intend to Sc
cure all the data that can be had and
then decide what course will be pursued
in the final roundup. Leading citizens
of the northern portion of the county
have been named on the committees,
which show that men of stability and
standing are behind the plan and are
not disposed to act hastily or ill-advis-
edly in a matter of such great import
ance. Facts and figures of the present
conditions i'll Storey County are being
