LOST RIVER PROJECT
State Land Board Inspecting Defunct
Project

Boise, Ida, Oct 13.-The Big Lost
river irrigation project located in
eastern Idaho, now involved in litiga-
ton apd failure so far as delivery of
water to the settlers is concerned,
with the result that they were forced
to leave their land and improvements,
is to be officially inspected for the
first time by state land board. In
cluded in the party, which left yester-
day, are Gov. John NJ Haines, Attor-
ney General ]. b. Peterson, Secretary
Of State w. l.. Clifford, and State Audi
tor Fred l.. Huston.
Four days will be spent in making
the trip, the greater part Of that time
being used to carefully go over the
project and consult with the few re-
naming settlers on it.
The purpose of the present trip to
the all but deserted project, on the
part of the state land board, is to as
certain the actual conditions that ex-
list and to reach some conclusion and
formulate some tentative plan by
which 1t can be restored and water de-
livered to the rich land that is includ-
ed within its boundaries. When inter-
viewed, members of TIE board declar-
ed that something must he done to re-
1mburse the settlers who invested
their money in lands on the project
but were forced to leave it because
the promoting company was never
able to deliver water for irrigation
purposes.
The Big Lost river project is located
In Custer county above the town of
Mackay, and is composed of three
tracts located in valleys, the soil of
which is very rich if supplied with
water. There were 92,1S9 acres seq
regated into the project, the state en-
tering into contracts with the COM
pany for its irrigation on April 80,
1907, during the administration of ex-
Governor Frank r. Gooding Later
second contract was entered into be-
tween the state and the company I'M
der date of May o. 1909. The esti-
mated cost of the project under the
first contract was $2,100,0o0 and I'M
der the second $3,500,000. The Powell
tract, comprising approximately S0,-
900 acres, was opened for entry on
September 4, 1907; the Arco and Era
tracts of approximately 10000 acres
on September IA, 1909. A total of 664
entrymen filed on the land, entering
60,745.17, acres. To secure fulfillment
OF its contract with the state the COM
pany gave bond through the Title
Guaranty & Surety company for $780,
900. The company never delivered
water to the settlers.--Salt Lake Tele-

Wolfe's Cove, a steep path led up the
cliffs. 1t was desperate chance; but
it was worth taking.
He only had thirty-six hundred MN
that could be spared for the attempt,
and on the evening of September II,
1859, these embarked on the warships
and sailed upstream. Montcalm was a
wary warrior, and sent some troops 70

The British troops landed some dist

O'Clock in the morning Wolfe and half
his force dropped downstream in boats
and landed at the cove.
Then came the scramble up the cliff
side in the inky darkness. Slowly they
worked their way to the top. At the
summit the French had weak re-
doubt guarded by handful of men.
This was the last place at which Mont
calm had expected an attack. The
garrison was easily driven from the

MORE RAILROAD PROSPECTS
Report That Northwestern is Build.

Since taking up the matter Of the
building OF the proposed Idaho Falls
Inter-Urban. and the building of thai

great deal of railroad discussion, with
Idaho Falls the central point of inter

the western terminal, is building west
from that point and has let the con-

posed inter-urban.
According to the railroad talk which
is prevalent, the Western Pacific will
build into Idaho Falls from Twin

build from Nevada. The Pittsburg and

is hoped that good deal of realization
will come of all the current rumors
and that the proposed inter-urban will
be the means of attracting so much in

to come this way and that Idaho Falls

CONTEST FOR NORTH AMERICA
Interesting Chapter of the Battle OF
Quebec.

The capture of Quebec from the
French by the English in 1859 is one
of the epics of modern military his
tory. Quebec was supposed to be alb
solutely impregnable, and was the
stronghold of France in America. If
the English had not been able to cap
ture Quebec, Canada might have been
French today, And this brilliant mill
tary feat was accomplished by young
major general only thirty-two years
old. The leaders on both sides of the
bale We're killed; but the glory of
their heroism has lived to this day.
After General Amherst had captured
Louisburg in 1858 he took charge of
the American campaigns of the Seven
Years War between England and
France. Under him was Major Cen
eral James Wolfe, who was but thirty.
one years old. Amherst ordered him
to attack Quebec, while that general
himself led a force to capture Mont
real
Wolfes command consisted of seven
thousand men; while Montcalm. the
French commander of Quebec, had I'M
der him considerably larger army.
The British sailed up the ST. Lawrence
river and camped on the Isle of Or
leans, facing the city.
There were three ways of attacking
Quebec,-from the st. Lawrence river,
from the st, Charles river, and up the
steep cliffs to the Plains of Abraham.
On the st. Lawrence side it was i'm
possible to get near enough to the city
to damage it, and to climb the steep
rock to the Plains Of Abraham seemed
unworthy OF consideration. So Vote
decided to cross the st. Lawrence sew
en- miles below Quebec, and to fight
his way to the city by the ST. Charles
side. But this attack failed, with
great loss to the English.
However, although he was discour-
aged, the stout heart of General Wolfe
Lever failed. He began immediately to
plan another way of getting into Que
bee. He learned that the impossible
could be accomplished, the heights TO

until the French came within close
range, and then at his order one vol

gaps in their lines, the French halted
and Wolfe led on his men to COM
