Robinson. the fast sprinter from Kee-

Unofficially Robinson has a record of

has entered his credits at Cornell. and
that he also is in communication with
Pennsylvania SO it is not certain that he
will take up work here.
Goelitz, Robinson's partner, who per-
formed with him at Mercersburg before
the two entered the Wisconsin school,
probably will enroll at Michigan IL Rob-
inson does. Goelitz was the highest in

|. f. FINNEY STATES VIEWS
Letter From Secretary of Settlers
Association.
Twin Falls, Ida, Jan. 6, 1914.

Twin Falls, Ida, jan 6, 1914.
Dear Editor: Since a large number Of
settlers have asked me to state my
views in regard to a settlement of the
difficulties on the Salmon tract that
are now being presented to the bond
holders and the settlers, | am address,
ing you this communication
Owing to the expense, the long time
necessary if the courts are repaired
to. and the consequent depression and
stagnation due to delay and uncertain
ties of court action, | most emphatic
ally favor a settlement by agreement
with the bondhoders outside of the
courts if the many obstacles can be
overcome and the rights of both par
ties be preserved
The spirit of the first proposal sub
mitted to the settlers was very agree
able to me, but owing to the omission
of some very vital essentials, could
not give it my unqualified support
However, | was very anxious that
after the settlers had voted against
the proposition as it was drawn, they
should continue negotiations by sub
hitting another in the form G. reso-
lutions that would more nearly meet
the views of those present.
Much time and though Y-rH gwen
by the board of directCns il roughly
shaping the first proposal, and | for
one feel grateful for what they have
done, for it has furnished a basis to
work from, something that would
draw out the views of all the entry
men, and finally take new form in the
second proposal which more nearly
covers the views expressed and has
definitely covered the objectional
parts of the first draft.
Each entryman in considering his
rights under his contract should now
take into consideration that the pro-
motion company has failed and that
| the bondholders. now being in possess
sion, have every reason for acting in
good faith and that it is only reason
able that they should seek TO reduce
their losses to a minimum and to
make the balance secure.
It is now generally recognized that
there is insufficient water from the
present supply, to thoroughly irri-
gate ali the land sold and that the
only practical plan available is to re-
duce. the acreage. This naturally
raises the question of proper size and
lust where to do the trimming. Real
izing the possibility of the entrymen
and the bondholders not being able to
agree on this important point, the last
proposal provides that the department
Of the interior shall be the final arbi-
ter. This also eliminates trouble over
The Twin Falls times. [volume] (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1905-1916, 1914-01-09
kUHNS Still BUSY
Receivers VIII Soon BE Relieved From
Their Duties.

In conforming with the order of the
state land board to provide additional
water for the North Side in the Twin
Falls tract, the Kuhn interests are
now using Jackson lake in Wyoming
as a storage reservoir for the 100000
acres of high land the company has in
the vicinity of Miner and Jerome.
The order of the state board re-
quires the Kuhn interests to supply
10000 additional acre feet to the
North Side tract. In order to secure
this the Kuhns made an arrangement
with the reclamation service to Sc
cure more than that amount of water
in order to develop land which they
hold from the state under contract.
The Kuhns are paying for the dam
which is being built at Jackson lake,
although construction work is under
the supervision of the reclamation SER
vice. Work has been going on until
the recent cold snap, when operations
were suspended for the winter. AS
soon as the weather breaks the work
will be pushed to completion and wa
| ter will be ready for the additional
! 100000 acres by 1915. The water is
carried from Jackson lake down the
| main cudlUel VI lle oudht IlNeI W
the point of diversion to the canals of
the Kuhn companies near Miner. 1t
| is planned to make the new irrigated
land pumping proposition, as power
| can be had cheap at Twin Falls.
d. c. MacWatters, general manager
of the Kuhn interests, stopped over
between trains Friday in Salt Lake,
en- route from Los Angeles to Miner,
and gave out the following interview
ut is expected that the receivers OF
! the American Guaranty & Water COM
pany and the personal receivers of j
S. and w. S. Kuhn will be relieved
from further duty within the next few
days. The affairs of the Kuhn broth
ers have SO rapidly rounded them
selves into shape that preparations
are being made to develop other sec
tons of the west, including some hold
ings which the Kuhns have in Colo
RADIO.
! 81 thought that the receivershiI
would be lifted by this time. The re-
cources of the Kuhns were in such
good shape that the receivers have
hadr practically no work to do. The
purpose of protecting not only the
Ku.ns' but the stock and bondholders

the duty of water. | recognize that
Don Banks experiments the past sea-
sons have some value, but the recla-
nation service is operating an irri-
cation system within forty miles of
here, where soil and climate condi-
tons are practically identical, and
where practical farmers are making
a success of irrigation. Then why
cannot both sides safely permit the
department of the interior to deter
mine the duty of water and the ulti-
mate size of the tract
The new plan provides that the
bondholders complete the works at
endorsement of those entrymen be-
yond the new boundaries.
While it is unfortunate that anyone
should be cut out, if the tract is ever
to be cut down, it is an evident result,
so in fairness to all, | believe that the
payment of fair appraised damages is
| the best that can be done, and that
such should be more satisfactory than
to continue to hold their lands with a
permanent water right with only half
enough water.
Should the bondholders, in making
a complete and satisfactory financial
statement, show a loss, then by the
new plan the settlers left within the
new boundaries, shall share equally
with the bOndholders in proportion to
the amount of land each holds, up to
and not more than ten dollars per acre
in providing funds necessary to reim-
burse those outside the new tract,
thus while those cut out may he sac
rificing to some extent, those within
are not wholly the recipients but are
helping make possible the plan to re-
imUurse.
The plan of raising the price of the
water rights contains also provision
for the extension of time on the pay
ments, sets a new due date and valves
all past due interest that each entry
man has been charged with by the
Twin Falls Salmon River Land e Wa
ter Co. 1t is true that there may be
a legal contention as to whether we
owe any interest or not, but for my
part | am willing to forego that con-
tention in the hopes of settlement
and hasten the time when our lands
shall be patented, and prosperity re.
stored to the tract simultaneously
with a good and sufficient water right
Settlers will flock in, the land will
soon practically all be in cultivation
the department of the interior estab.
fishing the size of the tract, will Their
hasten patent thus affording the de-
sired security to the bondholders.
The operation of the system seems
to have been source of constant
trouble in the past and the propose
that the settlers take control and rur
the water the coming season should
meet the approval of every settler
The plan proposed amply protects
both the settlers and the bondhoders
and the fact that it is now being sue
cessfully followed on the Twin Fall:
tract argues well for it.
1t would seem, as Mr.. e. ]. Horni
brook suggested, that the state SHOULD
stand the expense of cutting the trac
down, but owing to constitutional OBJ
structions it would require severa
years to accomplish this, so l prefe
an immediate settlement if possible
even though we feel that we are sac
rificing some of our contract rights.
favor the present plan, however, if
better one shall be presented in which
