Cleanliness Next

Keep Premises Clean or be

day Cleaning Day

The new law enacted by the last
legislature in regard to the keeping
of ones premises clean, in cities is
decidedly stringent one. Dirt
filth and litter of all descriptions
are to be kept out of streets, alleys
and other public places, as well as
off of lots in the city where decay.
ing substances might be a menace
to the health of the community.
If such places are not kept clean a
fine not to exceed one hundred
dollars, or imprisonment not to ex'
coed thirty days may be imposed
for any conviction.
The legislature has designated
some April day as clean up day and
it will be Saturday April 5th. On
Saturday everybody is expected to
get rid of all the trash lying about
on their premises and either bury it
or have it hauled out of the city
limits.
Property owners are to do this at
their own expense except in cases
where they are financially unable
and then if they will telephone to
City Clerk Amyx the trash will be
hauled away at the city's expense.
The city is beginning on their
part already. The dirt and waste
along the side of the paved streets
have been gathered up aud will be
hauled away on clean up day.
The enforcing of the law in re.
gard to clean up day, rests with W.
NJ. Clover, as ne will take up the
duties of the Office of Mavor on
Saturday afternoon.

THAT EDrO STRONG FOR SUFFRAGE

The following Is clipping from
Boise, dam, newspaper, sent to
Mrs. F. C. CHAIRMAN Of this city by
her daughter VINO lives there. One
would Judge from the article that
the editor was a real 'suffragist, J"
from the spirited way he has taken
up the cudgelS against the mob vio-

week.

of h0udiuu. would be allowed to
/. eak up a pafade of women as they
did in Washington city last Monday.
There might not be such paIade,
but If there should be one 1T would
not be molested.
We may be wild and woolly, but we
have q hearty respect for women, and
there are are plenty Of men out here
who would shoot lot OF hoodlums
for insulting wives, mothers and SIS
tiers engaged in promoting any cause
dear to them.
1t is safe to say that no such pa
rade was ever organized anywhere in
the United States when the historic
bearings are taken into consideration
than that of the women to impress
the nation with the Importance to
them of the cause of woman suffrage.
More brains were exercised in plan
ing that parade and arranging its
details than owned by the whole job
lot of 10, 600 Doors that yelled along
Pennsylvania avenue and heaped cpl
thets upon those who marched with
sore feet aud aching hearts to impress
a nation with their earnestness in
demanding the tight to vote.
In the long march from the capitol
to the treasury was depicted the en-
tire history of the struggle of woman
up from barbarism The floats were
eloquent in appeal for an advance step
for the weaker sex. They would have
appealed to any man with an ounce
of brains to his credit or a spark OF
manhood in his breast.
But the Washington hOodlums
heaped upon them insult and even
offered violence.

and there lying just in front and far
beneath their feet was q beautiful
body of water. The size and extent
of which could not be determined in
the fast approaching darkness, yet
with eager and Joyful step the de-
cent was made to the waters edge.
Here again thirst was quenched and
heart made glad by the excellent
find, but this time by the taste Of
pure, ice-cold living water.
The return to camp with glad news
was quickly made, a happy chat and
sleep followed in rapid succession,
until the hour of midnight drew near
and with it one of the greatest
rains we had ever experienced.
So heavy and continuous was the
down-pour that beds and occupants
were floating and fioundering about
in the running water and that in the
very heart of Idaho's great desert
One member of the party, more un-
fortunate than others, having been
deprived of Blackfoot's luxury, pop

not float and his ouly hope lay in
reaching higher ground. This was

magnitude. Vast stretches of bare
lava rising to height of fifty or more
feet from the valley, rent by great
assures of unknown depths are seen
on every side, broken here and there
for great distances by the wonderful
cinder lavas that present the appear
ance of boiling mass of iron just at
the stage of cooling in a mighty pot
of molten metal so vast that it's con-
troll and management is only immag-
ined by the gods who formed them.
With great care and much effort
the Indian has picked his way slow
ly along this giant backbone of lava,
filled the great cracks with broken
rocks, marked his slow advancement
by small monuments which have now
stood so long and sure that they are
covered with the moss of centuries
as fixed as that ON the lava beds them
selves. Then he leaves the smooth
rocks that the heat of the glazing
sun has rendered almost unbearable
to enter even a more difficult field in
which to build his trail This is the
great cinder lava. So great are these
projections and so sharp their points
that even Indians with moccasined
foot, cannot walk them without dan
ger to life and limb. This he has
overcome with skill and much labor.
He has beaten these cinder lavas with
hard instruments, or stone in hand,
to small gravel, and thus beaten up
it forms most admirable trail some
three to i've feet below the common
surface Of the main lava bed. When
a horse passes through this beaten

back of squaw or toiling pony to
fall far beyond the reach of it's own
er. These and many other treasured
possessions of the Indian mark the
path that has for centuries been
travelled by the Indian in his search
for safety from pursuing enemy, or
the chase of the hunting ground.
On the second day of this toll over
lava beds under a scorching sun with
horses packed with the precious wa
ter, we stopped for much needed
rest, looking around anxiously at the
partly emptied canteens hanging from
our shoulders, and the vessels with
which our horses were burdened,
fearing almost to quench our burn
ing thirst, lest we may be in more
urgent need, when the party was

it's members, saying: IF 1 haven't

Isaac's WE'LL" and there lying far be-
meath his feet could be seen in the
great crack in the lavas an excellent
supply of good fresh water, clear and
cold which was rapidly drawn by rope
and bucket to the surface to quench
the thirst of man and beast.
They erected monument marking
the spot and christened the great tino,
"Isaac's Well" In this tedious yet
very interesting travel We passed two
small valleys which were crossed in
the very heart of the lavas. In these
were many signs of bear and other
fur bearing animals. At the close of
the second day they entered the large
valley which was supposed to be the
one of story and tradition, containing
the wonderful river Of water.
Camp was pitched in the northern
part as darkness began to settle over
the earth, yet so eager were the MEM
bers of the party to know if they had
followed directions correctly that two
set out in search Of the coveted
water. Soon trail was found carry

is one of the nest fertile in the great
Snake river valley.
Two more days were spent in ex-
ploring the valley and its surround
ing lava beds. In the northern part
were found many signs of settlement
and occupancy by the Indians. At
one point high Notifications and mon
uments had been erected on the rim
of the lava bed overlooking cove
in the valley. Into this point one
would suppose game, antelope, deer
or elk had been driven and from the
heights above, the Indian would
shoot the unsuspecting, trapped ami
NAL, not with the gun of modern in
vention, but with bow and flint point
ed arrows. These arrow heads could
be found broken and shattered in
many parts of the valley.
These monuments also marked the
entrance of the rtail that led to the
living water found on the first even

of lightning began his climb for terra
firma. He soon became entangled
in the sage and lavas, lost his way
and wandered about until oyertaken
by fear and his thoughts of the de-
parted lost wives and children, he be-
gan to shout Justify for help and
sound to guide him back to more
pleasant, buoyant surroundings. He
was soon piloted back to friends and
safety stoutly protesting against the
accusation of his friends that he had
been lost, and swearing that the
camp had been moved.
Morning with it's sunlight brought
to view one of the most beautiful
valleys surrounded by an almost i'm
penetrable wall of lavas rising alb
ruptly from the rim to a height Of
from forty to sixty feet.
This valley Is or gradual slope
to the south except that in the center
a large mountain rises from the base
of which the land slopes toward the
rim of the lavas in all directions. The

and greater in length. The valley is

six or seven in width. The soil where

capped in the lava beds below. This
spring, as it appeared to be, was
thoroughly tested with buckets and
horses at our command, and proved
to be so permanent that 1t could not
be lowered one hairs breadth by our
great effort. The trail was repaired
and seven horses were watered at
this spring during the three days So
journ in the valley.
Not far distance from this point,
was discovered flowing stream OF
water of considerable size, sufficient
in extent to water several hundred
acres of land. This water had been
found by the Parson brothers.
The party was so well pleased with
their findings that they have filed on
the lands and water with the inten-
tion of improving he property.
A return trip will soon be made
for the purpose of developing both
land and water, now secured by law
full entry.
Did this valley possess sufficient
water to irrigate the rich soil and

road line, it would be one of the
richest sections of the state; as it Is,
there is promise that 1t will yet be

The exploration of this wonderful
valley was not all that was undertak-
en- by this party. They continued
their search beyond the great west
lava bed and there found valley Of
greater size, not less than 80 miles
in length and the distance in width
was not traversed, but Is known to
be not less than fifteen miles. It 10

has in years past been visited by
sheep herders from the west by way

the grass is now growing knee high
and flows like fields Of grain in the
summer breeze.
So elated are the explorers over
the vastness and richness of these
valleys that they are bold enough to
predict an extensive settlement and
cultivation of the soil in the larger
valley to the west at least, and that
at no great distant future. It poses
