$4,000 CANNOT GET
SEATS AT CHICAGO
Hundred thousand Applications
Already Made; Seating
Capacity 10000.

Chicago.-This week will see the
foundation completed for the holding
of the republican national convention
here on June Is. Toward the end of
this week members of the national
committee and other dignitaries who
will be in the limelight during the con-
test will arrive, as will the representa-
tiyes of various sta'e delegations
which have been contested. The
night of May 29 is the time limit fixed
for filing of credentials and contests,
except from states where election
laws provide for conventions or pri-
maries after that date. The national
committee will sit on June to begin
the hearing of claims for 26O-odd con-
tested seats.
The seating capacity of the big coli
scum will be taxed to it's utmost, ac-
cording to the present plans of Colonel
Harry s. New and other members of
the subcommittee on arrangements.
More than 100000 requests are on file
already for 10000 seats. To meet this
complex problem William Stone, the
sergeant-at-arms, has a force of men
sorting applications, and committee
members are passing upon the eligi-
bility of the applicants.
The Roosevelt forces may be CON-
PEELED to bolt the coliseum convention
at the start and give Chicago two big
national conventions simultaneously
This unusual spectacle loomed up on
the political horizon, following the dec
laration here by Ormsby McHarg,
speaking for Colonel Roosevelt, that
the colonel would not permit United
States Senator Root, of New York, to
act as temporary chairman of the coli
scum convention, June 49,

OFFICIALS OF CUBA
DENY Intervention

Havana.-That American interyen-
ton will not be needed to end the up
rising of negroes of the island was the
emphatic assertion of the officials at
the palace.
The report from Washington that
the United States was mobilizing a
squadron of battleships at Key West
stirred the president and his advisors
and they were extremely active. Or
ders were sent to the commanders in
the field that they will be held per
sonally responsible for the stamping
out of the uprising and they were di-
rected, it was stated. to inaugurats a
campaign of determination against the
rebels. While reports of looting of
plantations were received from several
points in no instance was there word
Of any considerable body of rebels un-
der arms and the crimes seemed for
the most part to be the work of iso-
lated bands.

the things in store for that pros
porous valley is power plant which
will furnuish them lights for their
homes and business houses and all
power necessary for any industries

already purchased the, site and is
having plans drawn for a modern
power plant. The site is on East
fork, known as the Howard site.
and has been pronounced as an
excellent one which with some work
can be made capable of producing a
great amount of power. Work ON
this plat will be commenced very
soon with the idea to have it COM
pieted early this fall.

Chicago.-United States Senator
Lorimer will not resign his seat with
out a struggle, regardless of any pres
sure that may be brought to bear by
his friends in the senate. his friends

plain the fact that he will investigate
conditions at Washington person

SHORT CUT TO ARBON.
Excellent Road Brings That Section
23K From This Place.

A proposition of worth to all the
people of that prosperous and vast
~ settled Arbon valley and to all
the people of American Falls has
Deen settled and the two places will
De connected by an excellent wagon
road which will not only be a good
road in summer and winter but also
shorten the distance some ten miles
over the present one. The present
road is good road but a long one,
but is not good at all timesofthe
year and the people here and those
OF the valley have had under con-
sideration the matter of bettering
this condition and shortening the
distance for some time. and action
was taken only a few days ago by
cooperation with the Arbon valley
people and ommissioner MayJ of
this district, and L. L. Evans and
Ezra Earring, Of American Falls.
The new proposed road will make
shorter haul to American Falls
OF ten miles and the road bed is of
such nature that construction will
be comparatively easy and means
a good road at all times of the
year. The vast amount of grain
now being raised in that fertile
valley was an item to be considered
by the people of the valley as we'll
as the market place They who
must market their grain may miles
by wagon had to arrange il possible
for good road and a road which
would remain good and passable
during the winter months as we'll
as the fall. The people there could
not market their grain during the
good weather in the fall when SO
much other work was necessary on
the farm and it was with a view to
selecting a route which would give
them winter road to be used for
their vast yields to market
when the winter weather made the
work on the farm impossible.
Something over $1,000 has now
been raised for thei construction of
this road, donated by the business
men of American Falls in cash and
the people of Arbon in work, and
has been commeced under
the direction of Ezra Earring.

CONSTRUCTING
POWER PLANT
Hall Million Dollars will Be
Expended Here
Two Hundred Men Will Be Working
Here Within 30 d~ys.-Wni
BE Completed in Six to
Eight Months.

Construction work on the large
power plant which is to generate
power from the great falls at this
place, is now under way on a small
scale, only the preliminary work be-
ing done at present preparing for
the large number of men which will
be put to work within the next
thirty days. The present force
numbers forty men and before very
long an additional one hundred and
llIty men VIII be put on the work.
The preliminary work being done
is the placing of the large hosting
machines to handle the large rock
from the dug out, getting the big
mixing machines in working order
10 mix the tons of concrete which is
to be used and erecting quarters to
accommodate the force of men who
Will be at work there for the next
six to eight months.
When work is once well under
way there will be no stopping ex-
cepting for Sunday as it is the in
tention to work day and night shifts
A great number of large. lights will
be placed around the work which
VIII make il as possible to work at
night as day and by this means the
construction company hopes to fin
ish the job in little over six
months.
When this is all completed and
the machinery Is installed the Idaho
Consolidated Power company will
have expended close to half a mil
lion dollars and will have a gener-
ating capacity of $4,000 horse power
The present plan is to install only
part of the machinery. but the
building is being constructed large
enough to hold six additional units,
each with generating capacity of
5000 horse power.
These preparations on the part
OF this company for so much addi-
tional power has a meaning behind
which has not yet come to light. but
it is safe to predict electric lines
cutting this section of Idaho before
the company will find use for the
vast amount of power they are now
to generate.
