Ruby Pearl Mabey gets
Arm Broken.

Ruby Pearl Mabey, Grand
daughterrofSister Moroni Pickett
of Marion, and daughter of Mr..
Mrs. Mabey, of Bancroft, Idaho,
the latter having come here to
attend the funeral of Mrs. M Mabev's
father, Patriarch Moroni Pickett,
had the misfortune of breaking
her arm while in company with
the family and relatives of Mrs.
Pickett who were visiting the
Dam on Friday last.
In going off the works they
went down a steep bank which
had considerable loose material
on its side which permitted the
buggy to slide some and finally
overturned it, throwing all it's
occupants out and smashing the
buggy top.
1t is surprising that more
persons were not hurt as they
were piled up in such a condition
that more limbsmight haveeasily
been broken.
The little girl sustained the
worst accident but she is getting
along nicely since having her arm
set.

Dug Drilled Wells Very
Dangerous.
Deadly Typhoid Fever not an
Uncommon Result.

Almost any community in which
wells have been drilled can boast
of number of combination dug
and drilled wells. The owners
congratulate themselves on their
wisdom IN utilizing an old dug
well fifteen, twenty, or thirty feet
in depth, and drilling through
the bottom OF this to a good flow
Of deep water. The cost of drill
ing that twenty or thirty feet
has been saved, certainly an econ
omy worth considering. AS a
matter of fact, this combined dug
and drilled well is a particularly
dangerous type. 1t may readily
breed malarial fever or even typ
hold fever, which is more prevail
ent in the country than even in
overcrowded cities, in spite OF
the supposed pure water supply
of nearly all farming Sections.
Such a we'll is all the more dang
erous because it is fancied to be
safe. Although the water en-
countered by the deep we'll may
be perfectly pure at the start, con-
taminatlon may take place al
most Immediately by the ent-
rance. especially after rains, of
seepage water in the open we'll
and thence into the casing of the
drilled well. The remedies are
obvious. Either the casing should
be carried to the surface of the
outside ground, or at least above
the highest level ever reached bv
the water, or the openwell should
be converted into a water-ti tight
system by applying a thick coat
ing of cement over both sides and
bottom. (From Water Supply
Paper 223, United States Geolog-
icsl Survey.)

Idaho Gains
Victory inland
Case.
SECTIONS IN LIEU OF 16 zND
SO TO BE SELECTED.

For many years controversy
has been in existence betwee the
State and Federal Government
concerning the right to Sections
16 and Sc, located in Forest
Reserves, the State all the while
contending that according TO the
Admission Act, that these Sect
ions were granted to them, at the
same time the Government claim
ing right to them on account
of their not being surveyed, con-
sequently no title could be given
and they therefore rested with
the United States.
This matter was taken up in
earnest some time ago with the
result that members of the Forest
Department and of the State
Land Board met and agreed up
plans whereby the State shall get
the lands speclhed in the Admiss-
ion Act.
Surveyors will take up the work
of surveying the lands and when
located, land as near like those
in the reserves will be selected bv
the State in as compact bodies
as possible which places them in
position to realize something
out of their pseeither through sale
or by lease. 1t is intend
ed that where Sections 16 or SO
located in Forest Reserves
contain merchantable timber
that Government timber lands
in the North be selected in lieu
and where they are good grazing
lands that like lands in the
Southern part of the State be
selected and so on in lands good
for Agriculture, etc.
At present there are 100000
acres of these lands IN forest re-
serves which if sold or rented
means a great revenue to the
School fund of this State and by
right ought to be in position
to be handled at the will of the
State.
The expenses of surveying will
be born equally by the State and
Federal Government after which
the selection of land in lieu shall
commence.

Cassia Stake
Academy has
Opening Ball.


Friday night, the goth, the
Students of the Academy held
thir Opening BALM the Gymnas-
ium. Before the party began two
picked teams from the school
PLAYED an interesting game OF
Basket Ball which resulted in a
score Of 13 to Z in favor of the
Greys.
The game was a lively one and
the people were pleased with the
evenings entertainment in the
main, one short feature however /,
in the form of a pulling match
was received very unfavorably,
when through the persuasion and
practical force of a bunch Of Stud
ents and some OF the Teachers
participating the Principal was
almost compelled to engage IN
a pull that came very near doing
him permanent bodily injury.
"Not very dign1hed, Students"
An apology to your Principal
would not be out of place.
The dance was the kind that
the Student Body should en-
courage for their recreation.

Oakley's Elect
rical Era
Drawing Near.
POLES ORDERED FOR LOCAL
SYSTEM.

That Oakley's inhabitants are
so close to an Electric Light
Awakening IS no dream yet it
may appear to many as such,
but the facts are never-the less
true and the realization of such
will dawn upon this place before
many are aware of it.
Gen. Mgr. D. c. McWalters,
Engineer Wylcy and Mr.. Moore,
the latter being connected with
the West Penn Railroad Co., of
Pittsburg, who visited the place
last Saturday, were highly pleas
ed with the improvements being
made here and gave much en-
couragement as to the future
development to take place at this
point.
As a result of ther visit s cars
OF poles tor the local distribution
has been ordered which means
that the Kuhn's will be ready as
soon as the people here for the
electric power.
And this isonly a small part of
the work to be done in the near
future.
The electriting Of the present
Idaho Southern Railroad with
heavy transmission wire Of suffic-
lent size tocarry electricalenergy
to Ogden or Salt Lake is move
that is likelv-the next in order.
For fear that you may think
the whole thing a joke if we pred
/. let that street cars may be runn-
ing up Main Street within six
years we wont say so now but
only hint. at it. SO you will REM
ember that such a thing was
talked ofand watch for the grant
ing of such franchise.
There is no question about the
Kuhus entering the electric Light
Business in earnest and we may
expect this place to become the
center of a large population in a
few years. Its greatness can
hardly be realized till we see the
water turned out and the farms
beginning to yield.
This valley will be city Of
lights and wonder to those
who enter it, if the future does
as much as the past and there is
every reason to expect more.

For this sum 4.2OO, 900 acres of
land have been put under canal,
2,35O,OOO acres OF which have SO
far been irrigated.
The Snake valley itself contains
about half ofthe 10 900, 900 acre
total OF irrigable land. Develop
ment is but begun. The progress
iveness of the people is indicated
by the fact that already 80 towns
in southern Idaho have electric
light plants, although only one
has population of above 10000
Some of the smaller towns, with
populations of 200 or less, have
hotels that would be the prides
of eastern towns of 1000.
We must not expect that our
inter-mountain country is to
come into his own at a singk
stride or that development of d
single industry will suffice. Farm
ers, miners. manufacturers. Job
bers and retailers all have trem-
endous opportunities awaiting
them. Utah, western Colorado,
and Wyoming, Neveda and south.
ern Idaho form a natural inter
mountain unit capable of wond-
erful development IN numberless
ways. We are already reaping
large rewards, but we have only
begun, and we shall not have
reached our goal untilevery doll
ar OF invested fun,ls and every
acre of land is working at its
highest possible efficiency.

A Simple House Disinfection.

The time is not far distant when
a tenant will refuse to occupy a
house that does not present a
clean bill Of-health. When it be-
comes generally understood that
infectious diseases may linger tor
MANY months in the wall and
floors Of houses inhabited by sick
persons, the public will demand
that each house shall be thor
oughly disinfected by acompetent
person before allowing it to be
occupied by another.
Our City Boards of Health at
tempt to disinfect houses when Il
known case Cf scarlet fever or
diptheria is found but the efforts
put forth are frequently non
availing in that, the methods
used are often times not to be
relied upon. The market is full
ofcheap nostrums, the manutact-
urers Of which claim great success
for them. In each case the dis
injecting power of the contriv-
ance is given as many times
greater than it possesses. For
example little formalin candle
containing an ounce or two OF
formalin will be adves tlsed as
as being sufficient to dislnfect a
room containing one thousand
cubic feet. Foramiin is one OF
the best disinfectants that we
have if used properly, BUTT must
be used in much larger quantities
.han found in these proprietary
compounds. One thousand cubic
feet of space require 16 ounces OF
formalin If the temperature OF
the room is above 60 degrees F.
and obout "a ounces if the temp
erature is below this. 1t is ap-
parent to an ordinary intelligent
person that a little lamp no larg-
er than an apple would be very
Ineffective when turned loose in
a room containing one thousand
cubic rect.
The following process is re-
commended by State boards OF
Health as being efficient. cheap,
and easily performed: After COM
pletely closing the room, stopp-
ing all cracks and openings thor
oughly, place GA ounces ofpotas
sium permangenate in an S-quart
earthen vessel and pour 16 ounces
of iormalin upon it. The chem
ical action resulting liberates the
formaldehyde gas which is the
disinfecting agent. The action
OF this gas should be allowed to
continue tor al least twelve hours.

and 21 100000 acres are arabic.
This great area of arabic land is
almost equally divided between
the dry farming sections and the

Idaho's total output for 1910

interesting to note that neither
mineral production, livestock or
wool came second, but manut-
actures, with total of $24 ,OOO,-

ry only provided third. This
is remarkable showing consid-

MINERAL PRODUCTS.
Silver, gold, copper, tungsten,
lead, coal. phosphate and marble
are among ldaho's mineral prod
ucts, the last four in enormous
quantities. Idaho produces 40
per cent of the lead of the United
States. Definite information can.
not be obtained as to the coal
reserves of the Payette River
valley, the Teton BASIN and south
eastern Idaho. nor as to the
phosphate or marble of the south
eastern counties, although imm-
ense supplies are known to oexist.
There are now importai,tpower

Twin Falls, Upper and Lower
Salmon Falls. Oxbow Tunnel and

The Snake river between st. An

producing more power than any
any other stream in tho United
States. The plentifulness OF pow
er, coupled with the wonderful
agricultural possibilities OF south
ern Idaho makes certain a very
dense population before many
more years has gone by. The
development of the future is
foreshadowed in that of the past,

TERRORISTS BUSY MAKING TROUBLE
 WITHIN RUSSIA

St. Petersburg, via Frontier. Jan. 6.-The revolutionaries who took steps recently to work up terrorist outbreak out of the widespread mani- festation of discomfort which follow ed Count Tolstoy's death, have be- gun their campaign.
 Workingmen all over Russia are, presenting grievances to their em- wages, together with shorter hours and better working conditions. The movement is too general and IS ap- pealing in too many places at once to leave any doubt that there is 8 single central influence behind it.
 The true explanation is that the appreciate that they are numerically too weak to act ef- fectively unless the working classes generally cooperate with thenas It IS evident that they have secured pied ged cooperation from the working mems leaders. though the rank and file may not recite the seriousness of the struggle upon which they are entering.
 Accompanying the demands made upon each employer is a threat Of a strike in the event of noncompliance and inasmuch as it is certain that nine-tenths of the employers will dis regard their mems demands, there IS sure to be an epidemic of walkouts.
 It is at this point that a resort to terroristic tactics is expected. The revoIuionists are believed to have made all arrangements for supplying the strikers with arms and explo- sives, together with exports in their use, to take the lead in the work of destruction. The. general. impression is that the intention is to strike Q desperate blow for the actual over throw of the present government.
 There is no question that the au- thorities are much alarmed. Arrests age being made by wholesale in St. Petersburg, Moscow: Kieff, Odessa and dozens of other towns, but ap- parently the men who are really wanted are keeping; out of the way with remarkable cleverness. Appar- ently their policy is. to advertise the revolt as widely as possible in ad- vance partly as a means of exciting the people, partly by way of harrass- ing the police and partly for the purpose of driving the government to the masses to the extent of making them easy for the revolutionists to urge into acts of violence.
 The conspiracy has thus far been the most able engineered and prom ises to be the most formidable with which the Car has ever had to deal. Not only do the city working classes seem likely to rise almost to a man, but discontent is also reported among the peasantry of the rural districts and if the revolt becomes serious, Finland and Poland are sure to join.

TOBACCO TRUST PLANS BIG PLANT
 FOR NEW HAVEN

New Haven, Jan. GA few real es- tate dealers in this city have within a few days been employed to nego- tiate for the purchase of large tract of land near the site of the proposed new depot and it is understood that options have been obtained, a report on which will be made tomorrow in New York to representatives of the American Tobacco company, which proposes to put up a big warehouse in this city.
 It is said the tobacco company in- tends to make New. Haven it's distrib- uting point for Connecticut and other parts of New England.
 If they can obtain the site they de- sire, they will probably put up a large building to be used for warehouse and office purposes.
