"SuSPEND JUDUMENT. I"

A. was anticipated, the appear
Of the Times last week was signal
for abuse and vitupration Ia be-
flung at il 10y few over Jealous
patriots who can ace only one side
Ia the present controversy. We
think We have heretofore made our
position clear ON this matter. Like
many other settlers on the tract We
have our all invested in lands here,
with tue utmost confidence in the
future. Unlike some Of the calami-
ty howlers, our land i not for sale
as we have no desire Ia sacrifice our
interests in what we believe Ia bc Il
paying proposition. However, in
order Ia realize our expectations ~
well as other land holders on the
tract, we shall insist that the con
tracts be fulfilled. and the loss of a
few inches Of advertising space or
few disgruntcd subscribers will no,
deter us from continuing Ia assist
the settler and home builder in OBJ
tanning what rightfully belongs I,
him. We have been charged Will
injuring the tract 10y keeping pros
pectiYe buyers away. Be that as i
may, we have always considered tha
the interests Of the speculator in at
tempting To unload his holdings n
an advance at the present time wer
insignificant rs compared Ia those u
the settler whose future ambition
are centered in building up hom
for himself on this beautiful tract.
As has been often said, we hav
the finest irrigated district in tn
country, but in order to make tina
assertion good we must have the as
surance of a completed water sys
lem, and when that time arrive
land values will go forward with
honnd. Until that time this pape
will follow the same course it ha
in the past, depending largely fo
It's support from the actual settle
and the few business men who shaI
mutual interests with them. \

WERE THEY MiSQUOTID T

II has been charged that in the
renort of the committee a. published
last week, representatives of the
company were misquotcd by that
committee. In our abbreviated re-
mort of the meeting held on Tues
dav we have endeavorcd Ia follow
closely the assertionsmade 10y Mr..
NacWatters. Compare them with
the statements made in the report
and YOU will find they co-incidc
yery nicely, the only differ
ence being that Mr.. MacWattcrs
was inclined to be much more lib
eral than his legal adviser. When
asked the direct question MIR. Mac
Walters would neither affirm or de-
nv that Atty. Hays made the state
ments attributed to him in that re-
mort. as he also evaded answering
several direct questions put Ia him.
After flow Of verbal promises and
when Mr.. Speakman asked him il
he would he willing to put these il
writing over his signature, his only
reply was that the settlers woul,
have 10 take his word for it.
Comments upon the meeting ii
general are unnecessary a. the re-
port speaks for itself. From TN
lips Of the general manager We hav
been told that the company consid
rr the system complete, although h
admits that there are several defect
which he PROMISES la remedy. Ever
one feels that the meeting has bee.
the means Of accomplishing niue
good, and now that all know Ia
position of the company We hope I
see much more united effort q
the part Of the settlers on the ira,
in insisting upon what they deer
To he their legal rights.

MUST SHOW THEIR HAND.

MUST SHOW THEIR HAND.
From the time settlers were first
brought upon this tract up to the
present day these settlers have been
met time after time with oral prom
i-eS by representatives of the COM
pany, and a. time has passed many
of these promises have been unfulfill-
ed. Realizing the inSincerity of these
promises, and that the time is near
at hand when this sort Of promise
would avail naught, the board of
directors of the Canal Users Asso-
citation, through their attorneys,
johnson d Haddock, ON Saturday
last filed a complaint before the
State Land Board setting forth the
incompletion of the system and
asking that final hearing be given
to the parties in interest.
This action ON the part of the
board was deemed necessary from
: the fact that the Dist day of the
coming August is the time set for
the completion Of the system under
the contract between the state and
> the construction company, and the
l further fact that the claims of the
company are to the effect that the
system is complete and adequate,
and that in all probability the COM
{ pany will ask To be released from
" their bonds.
4 The complaint specifically recites
the defects a. they appear in the
l. Sy.tem Of canals and storage reser-
IL vors, and closes a. follows;
l. Wherefore, this Association
y prays that the honorable state board
of land commissioners investigate
/ the facts and statements herein set
forth, and cause an examination To
"a he made of the system which the
said company contracted to con-
a" struct, and that your honorable
&c hoard find, order and adjudge
II that the Twin Falls North
Is Side Land Il Water Co. has failed
Il and neglected to comply with the
'lr said contracts, and that the said
III company he required to proceed
forthwith to complete the said Sys-
ur TEN in accordance with i'll obliga-
lat tionS 81 To do ON or before the 2lst
NY day Of August, 1912, and in defaul'
I'M thereof that your honorable boarc
rs proceed to forfeit, according To law
the contracts entered into betweel
ter the state Of Idaho and the said com
ith pany, and that your honorable
Iay hoard take such steps aS may b
nd found necessary and proper To Sc
cure the completion of said system
cas i'm accordance with the contracts on
hrs tered into 10y the settlers upon SAT-
tract, and that your honorable boar'
make such other and further order
49,. in the premises a. may seem Jus
..;r and proper.
The preliminary hearing ON thI
complaint will come before the Ian
~ hoard ON next Tuesday. on whic
date both parties are cited To- al
''' pear before the board. We tirml
believe that there j. not a settler @
al the tract that would be willing
III" sign the stipulation relative to II
RE- completion of the system a. presen

ear SiSlent attitude assumed 10y repr

le- sumed legal form let "judglnel

is been finally adiudicateL through Il
the proper channels.

HOT REPLY SENT MACVEAGH
BY Alabama Roosevelt Follower who
Had Been Asked to Resign.

Birmingham, Ala, July 23.-Receiv-
ing letter requesting his resignation
as Collector Of Internal Revenue for
Alabama and Tennessee, a position
he has held for nine years and eight
months, Joseph O. Thompson, a lead
ing Bull Moose" of Birmingham, de-
clined today to resign, and sent a
warm reply to Secretary Franklin
MacVeagh, Of the Treasury Depart
ment at Washington, criticising the
administration of President Taft and
the Secretary.
Mr.. Thompson stated that on two
occasions he had offered to resign, but
was urged by the President to retain
the position.
mo one, not even his most ini-
mate associates" said Thompson in
his letter, "can truthfully say that
Taft's administration as Chief Exec
utive has been in any wise a success,
due argely, If not wholly, to his en-
vironment and his unfortunate ap-
pOintments such as your own, where
in your department you seem to have
brought about so much confusion that
you have subjected yourself to con-
gressional investigation, and 1T is
hardly to be, supposed from what the
public has been advised through the
press that you will be able to put your
house in order by the 4tb Of next
March, as the rank and file Of the
American people will in November
rise to the full majesty OF their
strength and hurl the present admin
istration from its place"

egates to be elected tomorrow by the
Alabama Roosevelt Republicans to the

To Capture Bodily
State Organizations
TO the Numbea of Six and Turn
Them OveF to Progressive Party is
Said to be the Latest Move on the
Political Checkerboard.

Oyster Bay, July 25.-Six .staunch
Republican states have adopted a
plan, Roosevelt said tonight, for the
bodily capture Of the Republican or
ganizations by the national progress
sive party. The states he named are
Kansas, Minnesota, South Dakota,
Idaho, California and Washington.
In each Of these states, according
to Roosevelt leaders who have talked
with the ex-president or his aides,
the Republican organization is. in the
control Of the supporters of the new
party to an extent sufficient to enable
them to transfer the organization vir-
tually intact to RoosevelTs support.
In each case 1t is the intention to re-
tain the name Republican and place
candidates for congress and state Of
fees on the regular Republican ticket.
In states in which the law requires
that the names of Taft and Sherman
be placed on the ballot as the Re-
publican nominees, the Roosevelt can
didates for electors will go in a sen
arate column. Where the law does
not exact this} the Roosevelt candi-
dates probably will be- placed under
the regular Republican emblem, on
the theory that Roosevelt is the legit-
innate nominee ,of the party.

All That Is Needed To Kill Fight
Pictures in America.

washington, July 19.--Prize fight
moving pictures today became O thing
OF the past in the United States when
the House passed a Senate bill pro-
hibtting the transportation Of such
moving picture films between various
states and territories or from foreign
countries. Heavy fines for violation
of the proposed law are fixed by the
bill The President, said to be 10
complete sympathy with the legisla-
ton, is expected to affix his signature
to the measure. Southern members
or Congress were especially interested
in the proposed law, because of the
race feeling stirred up by the exhibit
ton of the Jeffries-Johnson moving
pictures in their section of the coun-
try Senator Simmons, of North Car
