Have you ever seen a big river
harnessed to a lot of machinery and
that in turn generating power equal
to ten thousand horses drawing
against their harness? If you have
not, then you should take the trip
that 81 Ocala men took Thursday af-
ternOon, to the great power plant Of
the Florida Power Company, 40 miles
west Of OcaIa and about y miles
from the gulf, or mouth Of the With
Iacoochee river.
Few people, comparatively in Ocala
have ever seen this plant or could
realize what it is unless they do see
it. Out Of the party who visited the
dam on this occasion there were less
than half a dozen who had been
there before.
For more than Two years. the

cry. Approximately hall a million
dollars was expended in the work or
probably considerably more, when the
land that the company bought or
were required TO pay for, by virtue o.
the foundation that took place over
thousands Of acres when the dam was
finally closed and the river raised at
that Joint twenty feet higher than
its normal level.
The public was skeptical, before
the results were shown, Of this river,
which was not especially swift but
when the dam was closed and the
river crept up and up till there was
a 21-foot head OF water, which would
rush through the sluice gates and
through the great wheels provided to
turn the machinery like a diminish

knew there was ample power. And,

those great wheels which he natural

Wherever these wheels are, it is

that pour the water through them

A CLOUDBURST HITS
PEARL
Washes Away Six Buildings
YanDeusens Lose Hogs
by Flood.

Two cloudbursts yesterday after
non at Pearl and on Big Willow creek
wrought havoc to property. No lives
were lost
At Pearl, wall of water six feet
high rushed down the bed of the Can
yon in which the town is situated,
carrying away six buildings, .aving
in and filling up the shaft of the Black
Pearl mine and destroying roads so
that entrance to the minig camp is al
most impossible. The daily stage had
not arrived up to noon today
Dave Mclean and Ad Corey, who
left Emmett late yesterday afternoon
for their homes at Pearl, were unable
to reach that town except by travel
ing in a roundabout way over the
hills. Water was running 10 feet
deep in Sand Hollow and the roads
were impossible. Definite details
could not be learned 1t is known,
however, that the Hank Williams liv-
cry stable and FIVE other buildings on
the banks of the creek were washed
away The stamp mill operated by
Ad Corey and other lessees of the
Checkmate mine was also carried
away. No lives were lost. the people
living on the banks of the stream
leaving their homes for safer places
before the wall of water reached them.
The VandeUsen brothers suffered
loss of quite number of hogs in
a flood of water that rushed down
Big Willow creek. caused by cloud
burst. The hogs we're on a farm
north of tn home ranch. D. H. Van
deusen eceived news of his loss last
evening by telephone by way of Paw
ette, the line to the ranch being out
of commission He left at once for
the ranch, but no particulars of the
extent of his loss has been obtained.
There was a two foot raise IN the
river last night.
Another cloudourst was reported
from Pearl this afternoon. but no de-
tails as to the damage was obtainable.

PIONEER DAY CELEBRATION
Mormons Observe Seth Anniversary
of Settlement in West.

Despite the rain that fell all day
today, the spirits of the followers of
Brigham Young were not in the least
.daunted and they are celebrating in
an appropriate manner the 66th ami
versary of the settlement of that sect
in the inter-mountain country.
The parade was cracker jack and
attracted the attention of a crowd
that filled the sidewalks on Main
street. The place of honor was given
to two crude conveyances representing
the mode of travel by the pioneers,
In one were seated Mr.. and Mrs. Fish
er, the latter operating an old fashion
ed spinning whel The second was
drawn by horse and COW and driv-
hand cart, number of young men on
horseback logged out to represent
Indians, then the band followed by
five beautifully decorated floats, rep
resenting the Mutual Improvement
Society, the Relief Society. the Bran
well and Emmett Sunday schools
and the Primary department.. After
these came a long procession of We
hicles.
The crowd is large and al, are en-
joying themselves in spite of the rain,
though John Dewey and his wife
and the committees have their hands
full in making the visitors comfort
able.

COUNCIL CHANGES ITS
MIND
Decides to Take Advantage of
Right to Buy Electric
Distributing System.

! At special session of the city coun-
Gil, held Friday morning, resolution
was adopted to notify the Idaho-Ore-
gon Light G. Power company that the
city intended to take advantage of
that section of :. the franchise ordi-
nance which in effect gives an option
to purchase the distributing system of
that company. Notice was at once
served upon the company's agent here
and also upon the main Office at Boise.
The mayor and four memebers of the
council were present and the vote was
unanimous in the affirmative.
At the regular meeting held two
weeks previous, the council decided
not to tackle the municipal ownership
of electric and power propositions on
account of existing financial conditions.
Many of the business men, however,
were of the opinion that conditions
might change within the next six
months-the time the option runs
and that it would be advisable for the
city to be in position to take advant-
age of any favorable turn. 1t was al
so pointed out that the city had moth
ing to lose and everything to gain by
such action. Arguments were pre-
sented by DR.. R. E. Rose, Finley Mon
roe, E. M. Reilly and others, and were
factors in inducing the council to
change their minds. Friday was the
last day in which such action could be
taken, as the time limit would expire
at midnight of the 18th.
The city is now given six months
in which to make up its mind as to
whether it wants to buy or not. Ac
cording to the provisions of the ordi-
nance, the value of the plant is to be
determined by three appraisers, the
city to select one, the company one,
and these two the third. If the valu-
alton be satisfactory, an election may
be called to vote bonds in the amount
of the appraised value. 1t will then
be up to the tax payers to approve or
reject the purchase. If the city shall
not elect to purchase the plant, the
franchise will be valid for 10 years
longer.

who have more 1afU than they can
proftably manage will be given an op-
Iportunity to dispose of their surplus,
instead of being burdened by owning
too much.
Mr.. Talmadge is also endeavoring
to make a contract with the Black
Canyon district. If he succeeds he
will, it is rumored, take over the pow
er site at Black Canyon, build dam
there and install an immense power
plant. The lands under the project,
Mr.. Tallmadge proposes to colonize
along the same lines as outlined for
the Nyssa project. 1t is a colossal
development program he has in view
and with the cooperation of the land
owners in those two projects he is
abundantly able to carry them
through.
