You may tell your people of the
Black Canyon Irrigation District that
! will take up the matter of securing
government aid for putting in the
works of the district at the coming
session of Congress. l shall take the
matter up at the very beginning of the
session and shall leave no stone un-
turned to secure sufficient appropria-
ton to complete the project. l feel
confident that we will be successful
in our efforts to get the appropriations
required. At any rate shall do every
thing in my power to accomplish this
The foregoing is a statement made
by Senator William E. BoraIh to Mr..
James B. Newport, president Of the
board OF directors of the Black Can
yon Irrigation District. The state
ment was made Monday evening.
Senator Borah left last evening for
Washington to be in attendance at
the coming session of Congress.
The fact that Senator Borah has
become so greatly interested in the
Black Canyon project will be most
encouraging news to the settlers on
the tract. The success that has attend
ed his efforts in irrigation matters in
the past gives assurance that he will
not fail in this instance. The aid of
the government. will assure the early
completion Of this, one of the greatest
and most feasible irrigation projects
in the west The entire project will
cost upwards Of 100000 and the
first appropriation will undoubtedly be
a substantial one. As the government
has already made the surveys and esti-
mates of the cost there. is nothing to
hinder the commencement of con-
struction work as soon as the appro-
priation is available. The present plan
is to make the Black Canyon project
a separate and distinct undertaking.
1t was formerly included in the Pay
ette-B Boise government project. but
a part of that project was found to
be impractical, although in itself pos
sessing great merit.
President Newport, together with
the other members of the board of d.
rectors, feels highly gratifed over the
outlook. 1t now commences to look
as though the great work undertaken
several years ago will be attended with
success.

That wooden mill will soon be To-
Gated in Caldwell seems an assured
fact judging from letter read at the
regular monthly meeting of the Com
mercial Club last Monday evening,
from J. F. Leuer, a prominent wooden
manufacturer of Utah. He stated in
his letter that he intended moving
his plant from Utah city to some
point in Idaho and that Caldwell pre-
sented so many natural advantages
tor a business of this kind that it
would undoubtedly be located here.
Other matters of importance were
discussed and passed upon by the club
members.
E. H. Plowhead pointed out the ad-
vantages to be derived by the business
men of Caldwell indirectly and farm
ers and fruit raisers of the vicinity d.
rectly by the establishment of sub
station of the Payette Canning COM
pany at Caldwell He stated that this
section was particularly adapted for
the raising of small vegetables, such as
peas and beans and that they could
be successfully grown between the
trees on the growing and bearing or
chards with but little additional labor,
and would prove substantial source
of revenue for the agriculturists. Mr..
Plowhead believed that by cores
ponding with the Payette company
explaining conditions that they would
gladly enter this field.
HI. w. Dorman gave an outline of
the benefits derived by the fruit rails
ers and the business interests from
the Canyon County Commission COM
pany. He stated that under it market
ing had become system and that the
quality and pack of the fruit shipped
from here had greatly improved.
President Cue spoke of the need of
a cider and vinegar mill, declaring
that man with limited means and
abundant energy could install mill
here that would pay from its incep-
ton and eventually grow into an inn
portant manufacturing enterprise. Mr..
Dorman corroborated his statements
and added that movement was now
on foot to establish a mill of this
character here.
Two new members were admitted
asst night, ]. G. Burns and M. c.
Turner. The club is making con-
sistent growth, Is new members hav-
ing been admitted during the last two
months. That the membership will
reach the 200 mark soon is the con-
fident hope of the membership.
The Idaho-O Oregon Light and Power
company was censured by several
members because of its apparent at
tempt to force the city into q long
time lighting contract by delaying
work on its depot. No definite action
was taken by the club.

Politics Like Murder

Politics is like murder in one par
ticular at least in that It will come
Out whether or not. There is no more
chance OF suppressing the discussion
OF politics than there is in stoppinp
BOISE from building hot air main lines
through the capital city. The Tribune
does not propose to enter into the
discussion but in justice to. thousands
of readers we cannot refrain from
giving the rumors as we catch them
drifting from Boise down to Dixie
Slough and if these rumors are no
straighter than their route, the Dixie
lane, little credence can be given them
by anyone having even the rudiments
OF sense. But back to the text is the
injunction. Idaho will at the next ses
sion OF the legislature elect two United
States senator's. One of these sena-
tors will be elected for six years and
one for two years. The long term
senator has already been. selected.
Senator oBrah will be reelected be-
cause the people have so ordained.
The death of Senator Hepburn nee
essitates the election of senator to
fill his unexpired term. This short
term is what is arousing the interest
of the politicians. Now, it is well
known that Judge J. F. Ailshie hank
ers to be senator of the United
States. 1t is equally we'll known that
Judge Alfred Bulge bankers to sit
upon the supreme bench. Again. it is
equally well known that the Mormons
would like to see Judge Bulge upon
the bench. Judge Ailshie is able and
popular and halls from the north.
Judge Bulge is able, popular. and halls
from the southeast. The rumor to
which reference has been made is that
the two gentlemen in question might
60 in cahoots. Can you think of
niftier combination? There is only
one answer. Niftier combination
amt, and there's an end on it.

FREIGHT CHARGE HOLDS
UP FIRE APPARATUS

Our new fire apparatus is here, but
the agent declares that instead of
first class, as the machine was shipped,
it should bear double first calss rating,
and holds up the machine. for the adj
ditional charge. The city has nothing
to do with the freight, so the APP
paratus waits patiently on the car.

Wednesdays Meeting

In the session Wednesday evening
the matter of the men to care for the
ire apparatus was discussed and it was
decided to allow some eight men to
qualify by receiving instruction, when
more bids will be received.
The Carnegie Library Corporation
having made some minor objections to
the plans, discussion of this matter
was also had. 1t is not thought that
any serious difficulty will be met with,
but that the library will soon be we'll
under way.
The representative of the company
selling the gasoline roller called the
attention of the council to the fact
that the roller will use "distillate. :"
which costs but about half as much
as gasoline and said he would at once
order. drum of the liquid for the
machine.

COUNCIL HOLDS
!. Two SESSIONS

The City Dads met Monday even
ing and transacted routine business.
The new gasoline roller and the fire
apparatus were reported at the freight
depot and much time was taken up
in the discussion of the most feasible
manner of caring for the auto-eng'ne.
Several bids were received and the
councilmen were inclined to favor the
bid received from Orel Sovereign. a
late arrival from North Dakota, who
is to take over the Caldwell Garage.
Mr.. Sovereign, an experienced man,
in his bid contemplates the position of
machinist .chauffer, with hours from
6 a. m. to 7 p. m. He agrees also to
relieve the night man upon occasion
and will also take the engine out on
night alarms. In addition to this ne
will act as janitor of the city hall,
thereby effecting a saving OF the pres
ent 5000 per month charge. The
night man will cost the city between
5000 and $1,000 per month.
City Depositories.
The banks of the city have again
brought up the matter Of dividing the
city funds among all the banks of the
city instead, of having one depository
as is in vogue at present.
The American National, who is the
regularly designated city depository,
has signified their willingness that the
funds be divided among the other
sbanks>putting up the required bond.
Some Of the councilmen that formerly

fought similar proposition, are now
convinced that the city treasurership
should be taken out of politics and
are in favor of dividing the funds:
The subject of the proper points to
be favored with the new arc lights oc-
cupied some attention, after which
council adjourned until Wednesday
evening.

'',isE POINT ABOUT THE LAW
Raised by the Decision of
Learned Judge.

Suppose you owned a dog and a
.eighbor asked the courts to compel
you to keep it from barking and yelp-
ing day and night, interfering with
his business and causing him and his
family loss of sleep, and suppose the
court handed down a decree requiring
you to restrain your dog from bark
ng, yelpirg and bowling, except in
cases of burglary or fire." how would
you set about obeying the order?
If you fix it SO the dog cannot bark
at all and burglars invade your domi-
cile or fire breaks out and the dog
cannot bark, you may be robbed or
murdered in peril by disobeying the
injunction that your restraint of the
barking, yelping and bowling shall ex-
tend only to those periods when there
is no burglary or fire. For the order
expressly limits your right to restrain
any barking, yelping and bowling
aforesaid by those exceptions.
Must you sit up nights and look out
for burglars and fires and be ready to
remove your restraint of the dogs
vocaliZatiOn when either or both ap-
pear?
Yes. you might get rid of the dog,
of course, but there is nothing said
about that. The law does not prohib-
it you keeping the dog. All it is con-
cerned about is that you shall not al
low the dog to become a nuisance.
You have to place it under restraint.
But you can at least congratulate
yourself that, unlike the trusts, you
do not have to worry about what con-
stitutes reasonable restraint because
there's not word about reasonable
ness in the law. All you have to do
is to restrain the animal from bark
ing. yelping and bowling. except in
cases of burglary or fire. The excep-
ton may, it is true, seem unreason-
able, but the law is made to be obeyed
somehow and it leaves it to you to
find out how.

TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING
Duck Raiser Found Pepsin Of consid-
cradle Value, But He Has Dis
continued Its Use.

Refusing to eat any kind of food
offered to them, Charles Koch of Port
Chester, N. Y, concluded that his
flock of one dozen ducks had a form
of dyspepsia and decided to doctor
them himself. His method was not
entirely original, for he procured pep
sin tablets and. dissolving them In
water, he contrived to get the fluid
down their threats with the aid OF
metal tube. Releasing them one by
one he sat down in the house to see
what happened.
Almost magical effects were noted
Instead of declining their usual pro-
vender, they ate it with avidity and
came back for more. Scraps from the
family dinner table also disappeared
in similar manner. Delighted with
the success of his experiment Koch
administered additional doses Of fluid
pepsin. Ducks eggs were one result
But now the entire flock seems to
be always hungry...a That has its disa-
greeable features. Seven O'Clock in
the morning is the customary feeding
time for the ducks, but it is different
now. The ducks know where Koch
sleeps, and they assemble under his
bedroom window and quack in chorus
before five o'clock, keeping up the
din until he throws some food to
them. Two hours or so later they re-
sumo their clamor. So it goes all day.
Koch Is getting eggs, but he is losing
sleep.
''Take 1t from me-" he says, II have
stopped the pepsin."

The silent vote is going to be
d big factor in this years cleo
tons.

The Methodists of the world,
in general conference assembled,
discussed resolutions providing
for the abolition of the rule in
the discipline prohibiting card
playing, dancing and theatre go
ing. That may be wise OR it
may not. The Herald believes
that the question of amusements
is one to be settled by the indl-
vidual. While m any people
may undoubtedly n d u | G e
in the amusements under Metho-
dist han, without harm, yet a
good guide for personal conduct
in matters of this sort is found
in the words of the apostle Paul,
who wrote: ''If eating of meat
maketh my brother to offend, I
will eat no meat while the world
stands" If playing cards for
amusement is likely to lead some
young man to gamble with cards,
the player ought to be will
ing to sacrifice his a mus e.
ment for the sake of the weaker
one who may be led astray.
Sacrifice is the basis of all true
religion, anyway, and the man
who sacrifices most gains most.
If the individual acts from right
motives, the church will not need
to put a ban on any amusement.

MEANING WELL FEEBlY

In a recent public address in
Massachusetts,, Theodore Roose-
velt, abiding to the president,
said:
Il do not think Mr.. Taft
means i'll; I think he means we'll,
but he means well feebly. And
during this administration he
has been surrounded and infu-
enced by men who are neither
well meaning nor feeble" -
Whatever differing opinions
men may entertain relative to
the application of Mr.. Roose-
velt's remark to Mr.. Taft and
his administra ton, all must
agree that on general principles
there is world of truth in the
remark.
There are any number of per-
sons who mean we'll feebly."
The business man starts out to
succeed. He means to build up
a large and successful business,
but instead of hustling for bust
ness he calmly sits down and
waits for business to come to
him. He means well feebly."
Result, failure.
A young man leaves the farm
and goes to the city to make a
place for himself in the world.
He secures a position. He
works we'll for a while, but after
a time he begins to train with
the wrong crowd" His associ-
ates lead him into devious ways
and it is only matter of time
before he will lose his position.
He meant to do we'll, but he was
under the influence of those who
were neither we'll meaning nor
feeble.
The high school girl doesn't
mean i'll when she neglects her
studies to CAD about town and
catch on" to male companions.
But her good intentions are
feeble. The bad place, it is said,
is paved with good intentions. !"
T h e girl simply meant well
feebly.
The slave to strong drink
takes the gold cure" and is a
new man. He makes another
start in life. But he needs every
ounce of manhood he possesses
to stand on his new foundation,
He must cut loose from the old
gang quit frequenting his for
mer resorts; if he doesn't he'll
surely fall again. He must do
more than mean well feebly.
Illustrations of this truth can
be seen every day. Men and
women mean well in every line
of human endeavor, but too
