MUST SCREEN CANALS.
Fish Screens Must Be Placed Over
All River Headgates.

l.. c. Jones, deputy state game
warden, was in town this week, on
tour to notify all who have irriga-
tion canals taking water from the
Big and Little Wood rivers to have
the canal openings properly screen
ed to keep fish from leaving the
streams and being lost in the can
ais and bitches. The annual loss
of small trout is gerater in irrigat-
ing canals than all the fish that are
legally taken by hook and line,
and the fish and game department
is preparing to enforce the law rel
ative to screening all the canals and
headgates. A patent revolving
screen is being introduced that is
in that it will not obstruct the flow
of the water by gathering drift of
various kinds. 1t is rather more
expensive than the fixed screen, but
is more satisfactory in that it does
not require attention to keep clean.
Mr.. Jones went On up the Little
Wood rievr to see all the water
users there. 1t is expected that all
the canals will be screened this
season

HOLLERING FOR ROOSEVELT.

The Statesman has another most
suggestive Roosevelt cartoon, from
the pencil of McCutcheon, the great
cartoonist. 1t shows the progress OF
two thugs---fat, prosperous thugs
they are--who club q man on the
streets, in the presence of half a
Oxen witnesses. They are nominal
ly convicted and sentenced, but a
scheming attorney shows to the
impeccable, infallible court that the
indictment didn't state and prove
whether the club was of wood or of
iron---and the court fires them out
of Jail on the technicality, though
their guilt was proven. That was
the ground on which Roosevelt as
sailed court practice and court de-
cisions--and 1t struck mighty re-
sponsive chord in the hearts of the
common people

the event may prove:
That Roosevelt will be the choice

as the administration forces got In
a lot of deadly work in corralling

State Senator b. p. Shawhan, OF

BRIDGE BUILDING.
Excellent Work On the Two Nearly
Completed Structures for @. l.

The Recorder editor took trip
to the Big Wood river bridge. Mon
day, as "a guest of the Central Ida
ho railroad, represented by Manager
Lovejoy. The track, while not COM
pletely surfaced and leveled, is in
excellent condition; it is reported
that run was made in, not long
ago in 35 minutes, which would be
at a rate of 40 miles an hour. That
speed could only be made over
reasonably good track. Some fenc-
ing is being done along the line,
and the last Of the syphons that
carry the irrigation water across
the track has been finished. There
are 29 70 these, built of concrete
or concrete and iron, and they may
be expected to last beyond any one
lifetime Work on the big bridge
at the river is going along steadily:
1t would have been finished before
now, but for shortage of some OF
the material. Some heavy castings
that were broken have had to be
reordered. The bridge is one OF
the best wooden structures any
where on the Short Line system,
and the main span, $50 feet long,
is one that would make any bridge
builder rejoice. The next span is of

The water is now almost 100 feet
deep in the Magic reservoir, which
supplies the Idaho Irrigation Com
pany lands with water for irrigation.
1t is rising steadily, too, though
not with any great rapidity. as up
to the last few days there had
been no real summer weather to at
tack the snow drifts in the high
hills, which furnish the main water
supply. But now the sun is settling
down to work in dead earnest, and
a flood of water may be expected
within a week or two. 1t prom

tion. 1t has been mathematically
computed that the voteeof repub-
lican In certain Southern districts,
in its proportionate influence upon
the party nominations, is equal to
from 10 to SO republican votes in
the Northern states.
Mr.. Rosewater's own state of Ne
braska cast 127 900 republican votes
for president in 1908; the state has
16 votes in the national convention
Mississippi cast 1850 republican
votes the same year, and has 20
delegates in the convention. 1t is
being heralded as triumph" for
the president to capture those 20
though he loses Nebraska with 25
times the electoral vote.
AS all the claims of conentivon
strength for the denomination of
President Taft are based on a prac-
tically solid vote from south Of the
Ohio river, where there is not a
ghost Of show of securing sim
gle electoral vote at the November
elections, 1t Is not difficult to see
the menace that lies in giving these
election-voteless delegates their own
way in the national convention. 1t
is now conceded by most reasonable
men that, if Roosevelt does not
win---which he is almost certain to
do as things look now---it will be
impossible to nominate
and elect Taft. A third man, who
might be Hughes, but who Is even
more likely to be Borah of Idaho,
is an easy possibility. 1t is con-
yiction that grows in strength with
every day, that the nominee must

third candidate, or certain defeat at

HAINES' PLATFORM.
Where Boise Candidate for Governor
Stands on Important Questions.


Hon. J. M. Haines, former may
or Of Boise, has announced himself
as candidate for the republican
nomination for governor on the fol-
lowing platform:
In going before the people and
asking their support of my candi-
dacy for the office of governor, it
is but right that they should know
what my views are with reference
! to the conduct of some of the busi-
ness affairs of Idaho, and what
consider a few of its imperative
needs at the present time. without
attempt or presumption en- my part
to dictate or even suggest what the
platform of the republican party in
this state shall be.
First, | believe in a constructive
administration of the states af-
fairs, with particular reference to
the development Of our varied re-
sources, and proper safeguarding
of the peoples rights An applica-
tion Of sound business principles,
and strict enforcement Of our laws
with absolute impartiality toward all
are things | stand for All need
less expenditures should be avoided.
Thorough efficiency and rigid econ
omy are as essential in the conduct
of the business of a state, as they
are in the conduct of any private
business. The appointive and crea-
tive offices should be limited to
the smallest number consistent with
proper administration of the af-
fairs Of the several departments of
the state. 1t is idle to maintain
that the taxpayers can be relieved
from excessive taxation by any par
ticular system Of assessment, wheth-
er cash value or otherwise, II we
employ an excessive number of tax
eaters. Their salaries and expenses
must be met.
AS is remembered, last year much
effort was expended in the discus
sicn OF the question Of assessment.
until finally the argument culminat-
ed in calling an extra or extraordi-
nary session of the legislature, pre-
to relieve the taxpayers; +
the result being that an additional +
tax must be imposed to meet the Z
expenses of that session and pay the
salaries and expenses OF additIonet T
This is not the sort cf re-
lief the people want. 1t is my +
opinion that we have been, and are,
too reckless in public expenditures.
Last year many taxpayers partieu-
arly the farmers, were compelled
% pay from two tC three times more
axes than they had paid the pre-
yious year, without any correspond
ng benefit That such a condition
obtained is indefensible, for it has
worked hardship upon many of
,ur people. There should be no
in assessment, to the
md that all may stand only their
ust proportion of the burden of

There will be double the acreage

proportion of gain on the Richfield
