Brave Words OF senator LODGE.


Worcester, Mass, Gazette.
Now comes Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge making a speech against the
popular election of United States
Senators. His words in condemnation
Of the plan are both eloquent and
airy. 1T is now proposed" he saws.
TO put the United States government.
so far as the election Of Senators are
concerned, at the mercy Of the
States" And again he is quoted. IF
this amendment should become a law.
twenty-three States, including only
perhaps a minority Of the population.
could at any moment arrest the move
ment OF the government and stop all
Of its operations.
] Very well; but does Senator Lodge
pretend TO affirm that the United
States Government should be In no
wise placed at the mercy of the
Statesg Does he pretend to repudiate
the Anglo-Saxon principle that the
majority shall rule? Does he persist
in retreating beyond the days of
Magma Charta2
For a brand barely plucked from
the burning so lately It seems to US
that the Senator is making something
Of smoke so shortly after the haz-
ardous event. To say the least his
sense Of security for six years, has
taugh him to say 'the people be
damned, in most erudite and grace
full fashion. And he can speak brave
words withal, when we'll out Of the

We are convinced that Senator du-

good luck; and the JOURNAL no such

A new prophet with a small follow
ing declares he will be on earth again
500 years from now.
And this promptly recalls that an

nation who stopped at an inn on the
highway near Athens and ate hearty
meal. When the landlady asked for
her pay they told her they would be
on the same highway again in 500
years and would pay here then.
But the landlady put her arms
akimbo and shook her head.
That won't do, boys" she grimly
answered. You forget that you were

divorce was granted in a case in
which the four-year-old daughter
was Intercepted by the court, and
in her baby prattle and with that
innocence so characteristic of child
hood substantiated the charge of ex-
treme cruelty made by her mother,
Lily Male. against her husband, Alb

to convince the court of the truth of
the charge. In her complaint, the
plaintiff alleged that she and her
husband were married in Caldwell
in November. 1904, and throughout
her entire married life she had re-
ceived cruel and inhuman treatment
from her husband. At different
times, the plaintiff alleged that the
defendant had struck her, threatened
to kill her, and upon the very night
that she had been taken home from
the st. Luke's hospital where she
had been for treatment he mistreat-

PLENTY OF WATER
FOR IRRIGATION
NEW RETAINING DAM AT BIG
RESERVOIR FINISHED LAST
WEEK SAYS BADLEY.

No Question As to Supply of Irri-
Acknowledgement Well Filled and
Little Demand for Water to Date
Good Road Around Big Pond
for Wagons and Autos.
John Bailey was in town Friday
from the Deer Flat reservoir and in
speaking of the season and the water
supply for irrigation, he said the
prospects could not be better.
At the present time there Is Is
feet of water on the gates at the
big govrnment reservoir, being more
than twice as much as was available
at any time last year, and the water
is still pouring into the lake in a
rush. He says there will be an
abundance of water throughout the
season as is indicated by the fact
that at this time a year ago irriga-
ton was going on extensively while
so far this season little demand for
water has been made. The rain of
the past few days will put of the
demand for water another week at
least so that when water is turned
into the canals from the reservoir
it can be run continually all season
If EeeGcd.
There is a stretch of water at
present in the big pond that extends
for about eight miles at a depth of
SO feet. OF course there is a much
larger lake that that eight miles,
but il is nj uniformly so deep
Last week the new retaining dam,
known as the Forest dam, was COM
rleted. II extends across a low
drG where at high water tima the
".te, OF the lake might run off to-
ward the Boise river.
The Nv dam Is i11T feet in
length and it is IS feet high. About
$4,000 cubic yards of dirt were
used in making the dam.
At present the steam shovel and
the crew of workmen are busy at
the lower embankment putting on
the gravel face to that dam. The
work will require several months
for its completion.
Mr.. Bailey says there is a fine
automobile road now around the en-,
tire reservoir. going from the upper
dam on the north side to the lower
dam, and along the south side tc
the eastern end at the intake. The
ride around that way gives a splen
did view of the big lake and by 4

FRENCH HOPEFUL
FOR GOOD ROADS
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF
CANYON ARE DIFFERENT
FROM THOSE OF ADA.

Everybody FavOrs District Plan Ac-
cOrding to Statements Made by
Prof. French, who has Charge Of
the PetitiOns-PrOspects Bright in
This County.
Professor H. T. French was a
Boise visitor Monday. While in that
city he was interviewed by the
Statesman, and took occasion to
point out the different attitudes of
the Commissioners of Canyon and
Ada counties on the organization
of Good Roads Districts. Mr.. French
said Canyon county is practically
unanimous in favor of the formation
of the highway districts under the
provisions of the highway district
law passed by the last legislature.
Nampa voted, something over a
week ago, on the Nampa district
and it carried by vote of over Z
to /.
Professor French has charge Of
the petitions for the Caldwell dis
trict, and the reports will be in next
Tuesday, when an election will be
called Immediately.
Mr.. French says that it will be
practically unanimous in the Cald-
well district. He says also that
petitions for two other districts are
being circulated, one for the Mid
dleton-Notus district, and the other
for the Parma-Roswell district. Fav-
orable petitions will, no doubt, be
returned from the people of these
districts, and this will give Canyon
county four highways under the new
law.
The people all over the county
are favorable to the district plan,
and Professor French says that the
county commissioners of Canyon
county are enthusiastically support.
ing the district plan and are ever
circulating petitions favorable there
to.
When it is remembered that Can
yon county is specially an agricul
tural county, the sentiment favor
able to modern road building ant
the district plan Is all the more re
markable and worthy of favorable
comment.
All this is in very pleasant con
trast to the conduct of the count.
