EXPECT PLUMS TO FALL.

Democrats Of Idaho have waited
long and patiently for coveted prizes
TO be meted out to them by the ad-
ministration, and if we are to Judge
from a Washington dispatch this
pleasure will be accorded them
shortly. The dispatch in question
states that both factions in the
Idaho Democracy are to be recog
nized by President Wilson in dis
tributing federal patronage in that
state, which probably will begin
next Monday. On that day the
president is expected to nominate
Charles f. Harris for register and
Charles F. Moulden receiver OF the
Blackfoot land office.
Harris, a jack Mormon, is in
dorsed by National Committeeman
Elder, and Moulden is backed by
ex- Senator Dubois and eX-Governor
Hawley. Moulden was to have
been appointed some weeks ago, but
protest was made by Elder, then in
Washington, and for a time it APP
peared that his appointment had
been defeated. Governor Hawley :
appearance on the scene, however,
had the effect Of securing recogni-
ton for his wing of the party, and
Moulden's appointment will be first
accorded. These appointments viii
be followed shortly by the nomina'
tion of Judge McClear of Coeur d.
Alene as United States attorney t'
succeed Lingenfelter. McClear Il
indorsed by Nugent and Elder.

The term, sugar, as it is com
monty understood, applies to the
product obtained from the sugar
cane and the sugar beet, says Idaho
Country Life. \ great many peo-
ple have been led to believe that
there is a very large difference IN
the sugars obtained from these two
sources and will pay an additional
nrice to obtain cane sugar" in
stead of "beet sugar These con-
clusions are entirely wrong for pure
sugar, whether obtained from the
sugar beet, sugar cane or even the
sugar maple, is of constant compo-
sition, being made up OF three ele-

Merciful Heavens we are to be
denrived of the agony of reading the
Filler Journal from this on, all be-
cause the dignity Of its plaglarlstlc
od;tor has been called down for
clipping items from neishborlng
papers and palming them oil on MS
subscribers as efforts of his wonder
ful brain. If editor Tanner has no
more ability than he displayed last
week in his remarks regarding the
editor of the Times, we do not blame
him for purloining the writings oil
much more able scholars, and now
that he has cut the Times from his
exchange list his field of operations
has been curtailed and his depreda-
t;ons will be all the greater on nl'
other neighbors.

SPECIAL SESSION LIKELY.

A Boise dispatch states that Gov
ernor Haines is seriously consider
ing calling special session of the
twelfth Legislature this winter in
order that they may undo some of
the things they did last winter. The
governor will not qualify himself ON
this matter but it is the general
opinion Of those nearest to him that
such will be the case. The dispatch
further states that the condition Of
some OF ldaho's irrigation projects
through failure Of promoting COM
panies to complete them, the need
Of a workingmen's compensation
act and the necessity Of remedying
the law passed by the last Legisla-
ture to permit the organization OF
districts to drain North Idaho lands
are being urged in support of an
extra session.
There are varions matters the
legislature could take up that are Of
interest to the people Of the state,
but the history Of the regular session
il such that it is a serious question
whether or not it is safe to trust tn,
membership Of the twelfth with any
further legislation.

Congressman Smith in letter to
his Twin Falls constituents, states
that he has called the attention of
the Secretary of Agriculture to the
devastations made by the jack rab-
bits in Idaho, and the great injury
done to growing crops and young
orchards and that he has been
assured that later in the season the
department will make experiments
in various points in the state with
the view of discovering the best
methods of poisoning rabbits in
order that ranchmen may become
acquainted with the best known
means of combating these pests.

ii million dozen eggs ten years ago
and 143, 600 dozen twenty years ago.
The figures of the bureau of foreign

A SURE THING THIS TIME
CONTRACTS ARE SIGNED up

Hagerman Valley will soon be
connected with the outside world by
bands of steel. What a great period
of development is in store for the
man alert to the possibilities of this
age. The Little Wonderland of
the Northwest, " will mature as if
by magic.
The contracts are signed for the
completion of the railroad from
Tuttle on the Oregon Short Line, to
Hagerman. The road will be COM
pleted and equipped as soon as
arrangements are made.
The continuation of the railroad
from Hagerman into Castle Ford
and the Twin Falls country is now
an assured fact. This opens up the
greatest and most productive coun-
try in the west, with the Hagerman
Valley.
In an interview with Mr.. Welty,
he states that he is authorized to
say that the parties taking over the
contracts and bonds for the first
eight miles are ready to underwrite
the bonds for the remainder of the
road as fast as the railroad company
is in position to issue same. MIR
Welty is pleased with the interest
manifested at Buhl and speaks
highly of its citizenship and believes
the Hagerman Valley to be popu
lated with the same class, because
promises made during the month o
August have been carried out il
November by its people.
Now that the final contract is ex
ecuted Hagerman Valley is to hav
a railroad, which means the open
ing of the richest and most fertil
valley in Uncle Sans domain.

to the leadership of any valley il

dent of the state. The work graphically
describes the hardships, privatlons and
loss of life encountered by the early plo-
neers, followed 10y the wonderful achieve
ments that have been accomplished dur
ing the intervening years up to the pres
ent time. To the more recent residents
OF the state the work will prove very IN
teresting reading and a copy should be
in every household The author OF the
book is an old personal friend OF Mr..
Annett, their acquaintance dating back
to territorial times, and copy OF the

The Lost River Project
To Be ReOrganized
Court Of Appeals Hands Down
an Important Decision.

From present indications the Big
Lost River project about which
much has recently been said, is
likely to be put on its feet again. A
San Francisco dispatch of the 18th
inst says:
In the decision Of the United
States circuit court Of appeals hand
ed down Monday, the decision of
the United States district court for
the southern district Of Idaho, in
the case of the Corey Brothers and
the Union Portland Cement com
pany was affirmed.
In 1909 the Lost River Irrigation
company commenced construction
of 2OOO foot dam, the specitica-
tions Of which called for the placing
of the concrete core of the dam on
bed rock. Through some error in
the plans furnished the contractors
(Corey Brothers) the concrete did
not reach bed rock and the Idaho
state land board condemned the
project and ordered further work
stopped. Corey Brothers immedi-
ately placed a mechanics lien on the
property as did the Union Portland
Cement company for material fur
nished.
The lien was Immediately follow
ed by another placed on the prop
erty by the Continental Commercial
Trust Il Savings bank to protect the
bondholders. The action which
was affirmed was one upholding tn,
priority of the mechanics lien and
ordered the property sold without
the right of redemption.
1t is estimated that it will tax,
$500, 600 to complete the project
The work already done is said t.
have stood up well, but nevertheless
great deal Of repair work must b.
done, and the dam reconstructed
under revised plan that will ado
greatly to the cost Of the structure
The project will be sold to satisf,
the Corey Bros. judgment. Tn
date has not yet been fixed, but tn
sale will probably be held within
the next 60 days. J. +. Clinton
Jr., the receiver, will act as maste
OF the sale.
In speaking of the reorganizatio
Of the project, Mr.. Clinton, anon
other things says:
1t would seem to me with tn
experience of the last five years
Idaho it is inconceivable how an
plan of reorganization could /
agreed on without full realization
the requirements of the settlers,w h
usually invest all their availab
cash in the improvement of the
farms, leaving them without func
for the stocking of them.

President Bush of the Gould sys-
tenn, had to cancel his visit to Twin
Falls, as the bad roads through the
western part of the state delayed
so much that time would not per-
nit him to make the contemplated
visit. A delegation was at Sho-
shone to meet him, but their en-
treaties were in vain. However,
from remarks made by Mr.. Bush
after going over the proposed line,
those in a position to best Judge are
satisfied that a branch of the West
ern Pacific to California will be one
of the first railroad moves to be
made in Idaho.

$500 Per Year
Rural School Wagons
To be ReinStated.
School Board Orders Resumption
Of the Service from Dec. Ist.

After a prolonged session of the
school board Monday evening, last
ing until long after midnight, the
board by unanimous consent voted
to again institute the wagon service
on the rural school routes which Lad
been in vogue since the organization
of the school district here, until the
present year. This is a question
that has been the foundation for
much discussion pro and con be-
tween the patrons of the school, the
matter finally eliminating in a gen
eral mass meeting being held at the
time the present Independent dis
trict was organized, and at which
time the present members of the
board were recommended for APP
pointment as directors by a contin-
gent strongly favoring the reestab-
lishment of the wagon service.
As soon as this matter was taken
up by the present board they found
their hands had been tied to a Ger
tain extent as to finances. At a
recent meeting the matter was thor
oughly discussed and a committee
appointed to devise some means for
establishing this service.
At the meeting on Monday even
ing this committee made their re-
port which was not accompanied by
recommendations of any kind. This
report showed that the anticipated
revenues from all sources would
amount to 500, ,944 while the appro-
priations made by the former board
would total s27 ,S27, leaving some
thing like $4,000 as available for
other purposes. This report caused
lengthy discussion among mem
bers of the board, who though feel
ing that the wishes of the rural pa
irons should be respected, were 10th
to contract any further Indebtedness
without the means at hand to liqui-
date the same.
The law on the question of issu-
ing warrants was resorted to, but
Director Hill thought that inasmuch
as the public demanded the service,
the spirit of the law should be recog-
nized rather than the exact letter
of it.
1t was finally agreed that with
the $4,000 available temporary
service could be provided at least,
and upon motion by Mr.. Hill the
service was ordered re-instated for
a period of three school months
which will take it over the period OF
bad weather, when it is to be hoped
that other means may be provided
for continuing the service through
out the remainder of the school
year.
, A committee consisting of Wilson,
I Hill and Graham, were appointed
> to map out the routes with the
assistance of Supt. Massey, and the
clerk authorized to advertise fol
= bids for driving the wagons on the
same.
1t gives us pleasure to announce
d., the temporary settlement at least o
; this very important question, anC
5 the members of the board are to b

LATE IDEAS IN MILLINERY
Prevailing Styles Really Show Llttl,
New, Though There Have Been
aFew Changes Made.

Naturally, at this date very little
that can be rightfully termed new ID
in evidence, says the Dry Goods Econ
omist. The most pronounced change
= the return Of maline hats to strong
favor.
Grapes Of maline over hemp am
especially favored; but brim extern
sion, ruffies and huge wired bows o,
maline are also being offered.
Hats Of Chantilly lace are being
prominently featured. Some Of the
most striking of these have the Lace
fitted so smoothly and firmly over q
wire foundation as to present almost
q tailored appearance.
The popularity Of quilts continuei
unabated. They are used either alone
or in combination with wheat. flowers
ribbon or feathers. Among the smart
est models now shown are white
hemps trimmed with white quilts and
white wheat, with white MORE rib
bon band.
Another striking combination Is Z
broad black quill with tiny white para
disc sprays curling out from It's cen
ter.
