The session of the legislature which
convened Monday bids fair to be turn
ed into regular three ring circus, if
the contest over Macbeths seat is any
indication. The limited time given for
the discussion Of the tax problem
seems to make little difference with
the politicians and the contest shows
an inclination toward political jockey
ing that will tie up the usefulness of
the session in an attempt on the part
of the Republicans to discredit Haw-
ley and counter position on the part
of the Democrats to bolster up the
cause OF the Hawley administration
Between the two contentious, tax rem
edy will be impossible. The session
was called to give relief to the people
of the state and for no other purpose.
The Times believes fully that Hawley' IS
position on the tax matter was wrong
and also believes that the voters will
mete out punishment for that gentle
man in the coming election 1t can

east of HazeltOn. This plant consists
of T-shaped building, the main part
being 81 feet by 46 feet, and contain
ing three pumps, also driven by indi-
vidual electric motors. At the side of
this main building will be a building

main steel pipes. The main steel pipe
will be just outside the building and
near the end of the building will con-
meet with about 1000 feet OF continu-
GUS wooden stave pipe which will
carry the water to the ditch above.
The third plant will be known as the
Skeleton Butte Pumping project. This
building will be of the same dimen-
sions as the First North Side building
and an exact counterpart of it, and
will be equipped with three pumps
similarly driven. This plant will be
located one and one-half miles south
east of Hillsdale and about four miles
from Eden. The first of these two
plants is located on the main canal,
and the second on large lateral of
the First segregation, from which the
pumps will take water direct
All three buildings will be splendid
~ lighted and will present an attrac-
tive exterior appearance, with large
window every eight feet on all sides of
the building. The motors to be INSTALL
ed are seventy-five and 100 horse

This contract also calls for the
transportation from the railroad sta
ton and installation of the heavy ma
chinery to be used.
The total weight of the pumping ma
chincry for the three stations and the
steel trusses is approximately 100000
pounds.
The contracts require that work be
commenced at once and the plants

PUMPING PLANT CONTRACTS.
Two Local Firms Are Successful Bid.
ders and Work Will Bebin at Once.

Last week the Twin Falls North Side
Land and Water company awarded the
contracts for the construction of its
pumping plants on part of it's North
Side pumping projects. In keeping
with the other construction work of
this company, the buildings will be of
the best material available, brick and
concrete, and will be built for all time.
The Jerome Concrete and Brick com
pany was awarded the contract for the
construction of what is known as the
Second North Side Pumping project.
Thls plant is to furnish water to the
high land above the gravity canal of
the company at Miner. 1t will be To-
Gated on the Snake river about two
miles above Miner dam, and the water
Will be pumped direct from the river.
The building will be about 80 feet
by ~ feet, with the side along the
waters edge. The foundation and floors
Will be of concrete and the walls of
brick on solid rock, and the roof will
be supported by steel trusses.
There will be four pumps at this sta
ton, each pump connected direct with
individual electric motor. The cur
rent will come to the plant at a verv
high voltage and will be transformed
down to the proper voltage for the mo-
tors by transformers located in one
end OF the building. These four pumps
will each discharge into steep pipe
leading into the main steel pipe. and
the main steel pipe will connect with
large continuous wooden staye pine
which will carry the water up to the
ditch about 900 to 700 feet distant.
The contract includes the transport
ing OF the machinery from Miner and
its installation.
The North Side Construction com
pany, OF Jerome, was awarded the con-
tracts for the construction of the other
two plants. They are very similar to
the plant located at Miner.

der present conditions is such as to
wholesome than the past Mr. Cut
ting's list of good things we'll done,
moreover, does not include many good
things done under the individual adj
ministration of the several members of
the city government. What Mr.. Gut
ting's list shows more than anything
else is that improvement in municipal
government in America is not to be
secured merely through a change in
the forms of organization, but also

ciety of very exacting standards, is
Mr.. r. Fulton Cutting. He has made
aStatement with regard to the specific
matters in which that government has
shown improvement within the last
two years. 1t will be remembered that
two years ago the Board of Estimate
and Apportionment, the chief govern
ing power in the greater city, which
had been under the control of Tam
many Hall, was made free from Tam
many domination. Thus, though the
mayor was chosen from the Tammany
ticket, the government of the city was
liberated from that corrupt political
organization. Mr.. Cutting has pointed
out the achievements under that
board. He registers his approval I'M
der seventy-four heads Over a score
of them are instances of improvement
in finance and accounting which make
for honesty, efficiency, and economy
number of them are instances of
improvement in administration, some
OF them of great Importance; city ad-
vertising, for example, having been
transformed from "a byword of ex-
travagance and extortion" to zone of
the best instances of retrenchment. I"
Some of Mr.. Cuttings points relate to
the Improvement of social conditions
under which the people of the city
live-the improvement of the milk sup
ply, the reduction of infant mortality,
the examination of working children.
the reduction of dark rooms in tene-
ments. the improvements in dealing
with tuberculosis, the inspection of
weights and measures, and the like.
Mr.. Cutting also notes the advance
that has been made in planning for the
city-for it's transportation, for it's
docks, and the like; and he notes also
the broad Investigations that have
been brought and are bringing know
ledge to the people and the officials
of the city. Some of the credit for
these improvements belongs not only
to the Board of Estimate as a whole,
but specifically also to the mayor. On
the other hand, there have been GER
tain very serious faults, which Mr.
Cutting does not mention, for which
the mayor cannot escape responsible
ity. The construction of the Catskill
Aquaduct, which has been admirably
managed was halted seriously by the
mayors failure to take necessary &C
ton. The planning of the new sub
ways was attended with great difficult
ty because of the mayors uncertainty
and vacillation. On the whole, how

NEW YORK CITY'S GOVERNMENT.
Few people realize how big New
York City is. In population 1t is much
bigger than the island of Cuba; bigger
than the Republic of Colombia or
Chile; bigger than the Kingdom of
Bulgaria; bigger than all of Greece or
the whole Kingdom of Saxony; much
bigger than Norway; bigger than
Switzerland which has often been lik-
ened to the United States as Federal
republic; bigger than Denmark and all
her colonies; indeed. New York City is
bigger than Great Britain's great con-
tinental colony, Australia 1t is not
surprising that so imperial city, with
population not only bigger than
that of the countries we have men
toned, but far more complex racially,
should find it's problems extraordin-
arily difficult. In the past New York's
government has been notorious be-
cause of the corruption and ineffici-
ency that 1t has displayed, but its gov
eminent has shown great improvement
in recent years. The president of the
Bureau of Municipal Research, So

just as easily be seen that should the
Republicans in the legislature block
legislative relief that the anger of the
people will be turned in their direction
and the party injured in the coming
campaign. Revenge and the admins
tering of rebuke to Governor Haw-
ley had better be left to later time
when the retribution will fall where it
belongs and not on the people who
want tax relief and who want it bad
enough to support it's benefactors or
attack with the ballot those who block
such relief. The handwriting on the
wall should be equally visible to both
parties to insure good behaviour on
the part of the members of the legisla-
ture. While there is good reason for
contest of MacBeths seat, yet at the
present time it is results that are
wanted within limited time and Mr.
MacBeth's pelt could be safely left un-
til the needs of the state are cared
for in safe and sane manner. If the
question of MacBeth's seat is brought
out it is merely the beginning of a
merry shindy between the parties that
will throw into the shade all tax re-
form, leaving a bitterness on both
sides that will preclude effective ac-
ton at this session and at the regular
session next year. 1t is the needed OPP
portunity for the Republican party of
the state to show its craftsmanship
and gain back some lost prestige.

SAILOR Is HELD BY BABOONS
MILDLY Is Captured and Fed in Jungle
for Two Days Before Rescued
His Story Is Verified.

New York.-George w. Griggs, the
youngest MILDLY" aboard the liner
Kasenga, in port the other day from
Calcutta and Mombasa, had what is
called an unequaled experience when.
near Mombasa, he was captured and
held in captivity by an army OF giant
balloons for two days, until he had
given up hope OF again seeing his
home or ship.
"Midshipman Horne and l thought
we would take a walk through the
Jungle by moonlight" said the mid
dy." Suddenly we heard the chatter
ing OF million monkeys and then
some beast put its arms around my
neck. I shrieked and Horne ran
away. Then dozen or more balloons
pressed about me and dragged me
away. After about a fve-mile march
they halted in banana grove and
held a council of war.
II fell down cold with terror. l
must have tainted, for It was daylight
when I saw them again. They squatted
about me and offered me bananas and
pineapples to eat"
Chief Officer Wooster verified the
story by relating the details OF the

A GREAT SHOW.
Paul Gilmore is Clever in Every Scene
Of the Work in the Mummy And
the Hummipg Bird.

The Mummy and the Humming
Bird was presented by Paul Gilmore
at the Metropolitan Theatre Thursday
evening. The title Of the play is one
that arouses curiosity.
II is a society play. Lord Lumley,
the character made famous by Paul
Gilmore, is a scientist. He marries
a beautiful society girl and forgetting
her Immediately, settles down to his
life of scientific investigation. He
is the mummy. The humming bird
is Sig. D'Orelli. He makes love to
Lady Lumley, and the climax comes
when she goes to his room and Lord
Lumley discovers her misstep.
He has become acquainted, through
his philanthropy with Giuseppe, an
organ grinder, who tells Lord Lumley
he is searching in London for an Ital-
ian who wrecked his home. Lord
Lumley discovers that Giuseppe is
after D'Orelli. By several clever
ruses, which result in thrilling eli
makes, Lord Lumley secures his wife,
forgives her and turns the vendetta
of Giuseppe against D'Orelli giving
the latter short start Of his relent-
less pursuer.
1.-THE Mummy and the Humming
Bird" will be found worth seeing at
the Boyer Theatre Tuesday night.
