Wendell and Buhl Linked
by an Electric Road.
Such is Likely to be the Result if Present
Plans are earned Out.

With an electric line practically
assured from Wendell 10 Hagerman,
negotiations are now under way for
a continuation of this line to Buhl
on the south side Of the river. Mr..
}. Stewart Clark, who promoted the
Wendell Hagerman line is the prin-
cipal instigator of this new line
which is intended to form a link
between the O. S. l.. lines on the
north and south sides. With this
connection made the distance be-
tween Buhl and the coast, accord
ing to estimates, would be shortened
l39 miles, which is big item in
the matter Of transportation.
Several meetings have been held
in the vicinity of Buhl and along
the proposed route and much inter
est has been manifested, and no
little enthusiasm aroused among
the farmers as well as the business
men. The proposition advanced
and which is meeting with universal
approval is that the farmers all
along the line obligate themselves
to pay an amount equal to $500
per acre on their land, to be paid
in five annual payments, to date
from the time the road is completed
and in operation.
One report has it that the road
will terminate at Bliss, while an.
other is that it will be a continua.
tion of the line now surveyed be.
tween Wendell and Hagerman, and
the latter seems the more feasibl,
from the fact that the same inter.
ests are back of both lines, and til,

The town election at Gooding did
not pass off as harmoniously as
many would have wished for. Tir-

that the latter ticket headed by Mr.

DEATH OF FlNANClER.

J. Pierpont Morgan, whose fame
as financier has been heralded
throughout the world for years, died
at Rome, Italy, on Monday Though
it was known that the great finan-
cier's health had been on the de-
cline for some time, no alarming
symptoms We're noticeable until
about "A week ago, when the finan-
cial world was shocked to have it
stated that Mr.. Morgan could not
survive. This statement however,
was sufficient to prepare the stock
market for the critical moment,
and as n result the death of the
fnancier had very little effect upon
the money market. The remains
of course will be brought to the
United States for interment.

SOME DAM HISTORY.
daho to Have the Highest Dam in
the World.

NiC w VIM
The highest dam in the world has
been built on the Shoshone project
in northern Wyoming, rising above
the foundation more than 1928 feet.
A dam to be still higher is under
way on the Boise river in Idaho, TO
be 351 feet high. On the Rio
Grande in New Mexico is another
dam to be 265 feet high. This will
produce possibly the largest artifi-
cial lake OF its kind in the world,
covering almost 65 square feet (4l,-
2SO, 900 acre-feet. This is an
amount of water sufficient TO cover
that number of acres one foot in
depth. This quantity of water
would cover the state Of Connect.
cut more than 10 inches deep. The
service has built the longest irriga-
ton tunnel in the world on the
Uncompahgre project in Colorado,
the Gunnison tunnel, having Il
length of nearly Is miles and a dis
charge capacity of | 300 cubic feet
per second, good sized river.
Practically every Government in
the world that is building public
works has sent engineers to see these
and such other pieces of construction
as the Pathfinder dam in Wyom-
ing, 2l5 feet high; Owl Creek dam
South Dakota, 6,2O0 feet long {;
Laguna dam, Arizona-California,
nearly mile across the Colorado ;
Interstate canal, 100 miles long
Wyoming Nebraska; Strawberry
tunnel, I miles long piercing the
Wasatch mountains in Utah; the
Roosevelt dam in Arizona, 2S4 feet
high.
In the ten years Of its work the
service has built 300 miles oi
canals, enough to reach from New
York to San Francisco and back
Several Of these canals carry Who'll,
rivers.
Its excavations of rock and eartl
amount 10 the enormous total o
, 93, 900, 900 cubic yards.
1t has built 626 miles of road
; 2,09i miles of telephones; 20 mile
: of levees.
t 1t has purchased /, O5l 900 bar
e rels of cement and has manufac
' tured in its own mill $4,000 bal

As a result of its work, water i

There are many persons who object to
the use OF the public telephone for sani-

chine that automatically covers a trans
mitter with paper after it has been used,
which paper must be removed before the
instrument is used again.

There is probably no section OF
the country that demands more
scientific principles in farming than
the irrigated sections of Southern
Idaho. Even practical farmers from
the east are confronted with new
difficulties that often battle them
but it will be noted that those who
have given close attention to agri-
cultural methods in their former
localities, are the first to seek infor-
nation regarding the most practical
methods TO pursue in this new coun-
try. That farming has become a
scientific study has long since been
admitted, though our forefathers
would probably laugh at the idea
of agricultural colleges and expert
mental farms. But these have come
TO stay and the interest in them l.
increasing each year. The farmer
of today who does not put his land
in a condition to obtain the greatest
returns from his labors, must be
content to continue on in drudgery
the remainder Of his life. To enabl,

We would like to know if the item of 800, ,4SI-
10 was all used by the state engineers department
in the work of looking after the Carey Act lands of
the state in addition to the appropriation made by
the 1lth session of something $40, 10000.
Why not have this fund investigated, and the
expenditures therefrom made only for the for
which the fund was created.
Why permit such open violation of law in the
high places?
