1t is perhaps too late to say
anything about it but it seems
rather a pity to let the La Jara
reservoir get away when there
is land in this section that often
needs late water. If the plans
o. the Terrace irrigation dis
trict are carried out all the
water of both the La .Jara and
Terrace reservoirs will be carried
ON to lands that are nearer Monte
Vista than La lara. While the
needs of the La Jara district are
not as pressing as the needs
!, of the Terrace district still the
reservoir would undoubtedly be
worth the money to this district
even if there We're never amy oc-
casion to use the water. The
La lara reservoir holds enough
to water 10000 acres once. The
price asked is 100000 or 50 an
acre which would be a perpetual
insurance that these acres would
never want for water even in
years of great drouth. Think ii
over.

Mountain Home maverick. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1906-1911, 1911-03-23

BY the very decisive vote of SO to
% the people of the city decided last
Monday to issue bonds for the con
struction Of waterworks system for
Mountain Home in the sum of $780,
600.
A waterworks system has been
greatly needed in this city for years
and no question has ever been rails
ed over that fact, but the manner of
securing the system has been a sub
ject giving rise to a number of diff
ferent opinions Several attempts in
the past have been made to secure
a system, by both the franchise meth
Cd and also the selling of bonds and
constructing a municipal plant. Last
year a special election was called
for the purpose of voting bonds but
the general arrangements for the di-
rections of the system did not suit
the people and consequently this
was voted down.
Last January e. NJ Blake was re-
tanned by the city to make maps and
estimates for a system and it was on
the result of his findings that the
city voted the $4,000 bonds. Mr..
Blake is a successful engineer and
is well known throughout the state.
He has been in the employ of the
North Side settlers and has recently
completed a plant at Meridian. He
will superintend the construction OF
our local system. It is intended tc
have the system completed before
fall.
This is the first item bonds have
ever been foated for this municipal
ity and as the assessed valuation O.
the city is over half million dol
; lars. it is thought bonds will fine
, ready market.

. DYNAMITE CASE


News York, May 4.-Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt, in signed article in
the Outlook, says, in reference to the
Mcnamara dynamitlng case, that mo
worse service can be rendered union
labor byslabor leaders than that when
they seek to identity unionism with
a cause OF this nature, where man
lis guilty of a murderous attack. |
have no idea whether the men arrested
are guilty and labor leaders have no
idea. They are entitled to a fair'trial.
and II defendants have not money to
provide COUNCIL, then it is entirely
proper for any body of men to furnish
the capital. But Il is grossly inn
proper to try to create public opinion
lin favor OF men arrested simply be-
cause the crime was committed
against corporation or capitalist be-
cause the men accused are unionists.
| This is iniquity as gross as when three
years ago the sugar trust was in
dicted for swlndling the government
and it was alleged that organized
capital forces had been put behind In
dicted> men because OF that attack
upon Capital The Outlook believes
| the labor leaders should be condemned
for identifying unionism cause with
Ialleged murder.
