TENOR MASCAGNI CONSENTS
TO MAKE AMERICAN TOUR

Rome.-Senor Mascagni came to
Rome the other day to superintend
the transfer of his apartment furni-
ture to a storage establishment. When
seen by a correspondent he said that
most probably his stay in the United
States would be longer than he ex-
pected, and that after the United
States he may visit South America.
The original contract called for a
three months tour but lately his man.
ager has induced him to reconsider
the proposition and he has agreed to
a longer tour. taking perhaps from
six to nine months.
Apparently Signor Mascagni has be-
come reconciled to America and AM
erican managers. for he speaks with
delight of his forthcoming tour and
is far from anticipating any troubles.
The troublesome tour of 1902 he has
entirely forgotten and he only remem-
bers the promise he made to some
San Francisco music lovers, among
the Mrs. Phoebe Hearst that he would
visit the United States again.
The Able Don Lorenz Perosi re-
ceived your correspondent yesterday
in his studio in the tower of the Tav-
erna Palace He said that ever since
his first oratorio was performed he
has received many proposals 70 tour
the United states and that he never
was in n position to accept them.
Even now his manifold duties as mu-
sic director of the Sistine Chapel
would hardly allow him the oppor-
tunity for such tour. but he las been

sary permit from his ecclesiastic su-

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE.
Pendleton People Should Learn 10
Detect the Approach Of
Kidney Disease.

The symptoms OF kidney trouble
are so unmistakable that they leave
no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys

scalding. The back aches constantly
headaches and dizzy spells may occur
and the victim is often weighed down
by feeling OF languor and fatigue.
Neglect Of these warnings and there
is danger Of dropsy Bright's disease
or diabetes. Any one of these symp-
toms is warning enough to begin
treating the kidneys at once. Delay
often proves fatal.

OF illness. Congressmen are finicky
about pairs" too.
These are individual efforts. OF
course, the congressional campaign
committees, Gull through the Record
and take extracts from various
speeches which they think make good
campaign reading ana incorporate
them into a handbook for the infor-
nation of the voter. Usually a good
fat bill providing for public buildings
in various cities where things don't
look promising is also pulled through.
If a member is a republican, and a
regular. he can usually count on the
powers that be, giving him a little
boost of this sort-a new postoffioe

need a building, but whose towns
people are tickled TO think how much
pull their honorable representative
must have.
When the campaign is actually on
in full force, the congressional cam
paign committees apportion speakers
This campaign will probably be par
ticularly hard on the committees, both
democratic and republican, since con-
tributions aren't coming in as fast as
they might. 1t costs money to run
the campaigns and the assessment on
each member has grown into a pretty
sum.

DROP OF RAIN STARTS
AUTO ON DEATH LEAP

Paris.-A well-known Paris doctor
the executor of the will of the late
Francois Coppee, NJ. Duchastelet, was
killed in Paris a few nights since in
a singular motor car accident.
He had passed the evening at one OF
the Stamps Elysees music halls. on
coming away at 1880, he was stand
ing in front Of his electric car light
ing the lantern, when suddenly the
car started forward of its own mo-
tion and crushed DR.. Duchastelet
against another car that was just be-
hind him. He tainted and was car
ried to Beaujon hospital, where he
died shortly afterward.
The only possible explanation which
has been vouchsafed for this accident
is that a drop of rain fell on the
rheostat of the dynamo while the doc
tor was standing in front OF the mo-
tor car, and that it produced a short
circuit, which set into simultaneous
action the entire series of electric
batteries, with the result that the car
started off at it's highest speed.

CAMPAIGN YEAR.
Plenty of Evidences at Capital That
Coneressmen Are Oh Job.

PLENTY Ut
Congressman Are OH Job.
hington.-Anybody who walks
through the corridors of the house
office building these days doesn't need
anv further reminder OF the fact that
this is campaign year.
Piles of mail bags clutter the halls
of the building and extra clerks are
pressed into service to assist in the
mailing of literature to the folks at
home all of which literature is de-
signed to draw attention to the fact
that their representative in congress
is on the job.
1t has been more than usually
"talky'' in the house this session.
Members feel inclined to voice their
views on pretty nearly every thing
under the sun. Leave to print" has
been granted oftener than usual. And
all this adds to the weight of litera-
ture being prepared for home con-
sumption
To the desire of members to get in
to print on all topics is attributable in
part at least, the length of. the pres
ent session of congress. 1t is cam
paign year and no representative in
tends to let an opportunity go by 10
deliver his views.
These same speeches Of course are
printed in the Congressional Record.
But the Record only gives them linn
tied circulation. When the represen-
tative desires that eoiKs back home
shall know of that bit of oratory' he
has the government printing office
print the speech in leaflet form, and
sends the tracts broadcast through
his district, under his frank, 1t only
costs him clerk hire" to address en-
velopes.
There have been other evidences
of the love which members bear the
dear folk at home during the present
session. An attempt was made 10
print a million copies of very in
teresting publication recently issued
by the department of agriculture, it
was popularity called Uncle Sans
Cook Book"-the million to be for use
of senators and representatives. An
other coterie of members tried 20 Sc
cure an increased appropriation for
farmers bulletins. During the win
ter the agricultural department was
kept busy sending out seeds IN re-
sponse to members requests.
The most convincing evidence of all
that this is campaign year, however,
comes in the anxiety with which
members regard the votes. as chron-
icled in the Record The member
knows that the newspapers and the
Record tell his constituents just how
he votes on such and such a PROPOSE
tion. He knows that his folks will
want to know how he votes, and if his
name isn't recorded either as an aye
OF no, just why he wasn't on hand
to vote. II, therefore, has become
not at all unusual to have q member

$500 900 WILL BE COST
OF JEROME PROJECT

Twin Falls, Idaho.-Contracts ag-
gregating 100000 have been awarded
to Donald Grant & Co., and Conway
& Wilhite and active construction of
the big Jerome reserve reservoir of
the North Side Twin Falls tract. TO
be situated about six miles northeast
of town has been instituted with
view to having the greater portion OF
the work completed during the pres
ent season. This is only portion OF
the stupendous undertakings of the
Frhns. Construction on the immense
Salmon river dam and the Oakie,
dam is progressing as rapidly as men,
machinery, teams, time and money
can accomplish it. The total expen-
ditures by the Kuhns during the pres
ent year will exceed $4,000, 900, ac-
cording to S. H. Hays, counsel for the
North Side company and one who is
in close touch with the work and
plans of the Pittsburg capitalists.
Cover 5000 Acres.
The storage reservoir will be an
immense basin covering 5000 acres OF
land with an average depth of 80
feet. Water will be fed into the res
ervoIr from the Snake river through
the North Side canal and thence d.
verted to lands under the North Side
system as needed, the reservoir to be
used as a reserve water supply. Con-
s.ruction of the reservoir was recent
ly authorized by the state board Of
land commissioners upon application
OF representatives. of the Twin Falls
North side Land & Water company
and preparation for actual construc-
ton of the reservoir then taken up.
Dam Nearly Finished.
Construction of the dam has pro-
ceeded rapidly until now approximate
ly 40 per cent of the dam has been
completed. Equally heavy expendi'
lures are being made by the kuhn-
for construction OF the Oakley dam
for the Goose Creek project, the work
moving along systematically and with
as much rapidity as time, labor and
money can bring this about. The
bulk or approximately 90 per cent of
the $2,000,000 being expended during
the present year in Idaho by tae

Montpelier examiner., 1910-08-05
BANK IS HELD
RESPONSIBLE

In an opinion rendered on July
% by Justice Ailshie and concurred
IN by Chief Justice Sullivan of the
supreme court, the decision of Judge
Edward A. Walters In favor of q.
Spongberg against the First Nation
al bank of Montpelier, was reversed
The case arose as a result Of a
contract executed by the cashier of
the bank some l8 months before the
bank building was completed, and
before the lessee could take possess
sion. When the building was ready
for occupancy, clause was inserted
in the lease requiring the tenant to
vacate, the premises upon go days
notice. To this the plaintiff object
ed, as it was not stipulated in the
original contract. In district court,
Judge Walters found for the de-
fendant on the ground that the con-
tract executed by the cashier of the
bank was outside the duties of the
cashier of a national bank, and was
therefore invalid.
Mr.. Spongberg was represented
in this supreme court by +. l.. Glenn
and W J. Ryan of this city and
the bank by Clark 81 Bulge Of
Pocatello.
In his opinion Justice Aiishie
says: s'It is clear that a majority of
the directors, if not the whole board,
were aware of the contract and it's
terms as it had been made by the
cashier of the bank. All the sub
sequent acts of the board and each
of It's directors indicated approval
rather than disapproval until the
building was finally completed and
the formal lease was drawn lS
months after the original contract.
These circumstances amount to a
ratification of the original action of
the cashier, whatever his original
authority may have been in the frat
place"
The judgment of the lower court
was therefore reversed, and costs
awarded in favor of Appellant
Spongberg.

more congested centers of the east
ern states.
Several months since, it was pre-
dicted in these columns that re-
action was sure to come from the
emigration to Canada that would
bring new development to this
region That this claim has already
been verified is evidently fact.
The inevitable change has been
hastened by the unfavorable cll-
matte conditions of the season,
making it rulnous for the Canadian
settlers to longer remain on their
new holdings, where the seasons
drouth conditions made crop fail
ure unavoidable. The movement
from the East has also been stim.
ulated by the drouth conditions of
the season and by the severity of
the early spring conditions in many
places.
In the Pacific Northwest portion
of the United States drouth condl-
tlons have also existed to some ex.
tent, but the injury has been COM
parativelp small. Even where the
most injury has been done, the
crops are greatly III excess of the
best average crops of the eastern
states. Under normal conditions,
the grain yield in this part OF the
country is nearly double the aver
age of the country az a whole. In
excessively dry seasons, like the
present, there is no general crop
failure here, because dry farming
and irrigation are superior TO
drouth conditions. A total crop
failure in this part of the country
is therefore unknown. The severe
extremes Of temperature known
elsewhere, are also absent here.
No wonder that the tide of settlers

from the eastern states in this
