SENATOR JOHN w. HART
WAS A BOISE VISITOR
Holds Important Conference With
Senator Borah but Refuses
To Talk.

Boise, September S.-Senator John
w. Hart was a capital visitor this
week, and when the Senator comes
to town, there is always something
doing. AS usual the Senator refused
here can only be surmised. AS the
Senator transacted no visible bust
ness" while here, it may safely be as
sumed that his mission was a poll
teal one. 1t is known that he con-
ferred with Senator Borah and Lieu
tenant Governor Taylor, now acting
governor. Senator Hart is one OF
Senator Borah's chief lieutenants in
this state, and he is also a close poll
teal friend of Governor Taylor 1t
is not at all likely, however, that the
presence of the Southeastern leader
here had any further significance than
many other conferences that Sena-
tor Borah has had with leaders
throughout the state relative to the
future welfare of the party in this
state, but it may be taken as addition
al evidence that Senator Borah in
tends to take a lively interest in the
next state campaign. Borahs activi-

OF concern, especially by those Re-
publicans who have political aspira-
tons and are not friendly to the Sena-
tor. They profess to fear that the
Senator may undertake to dictate the
ticket, resulting in party discord.
Others close to Borah and presum-
ably in his confidence ridicule this
suggestion, pointing out that that has
never been the Senator's way Of
doing things, but they are not slow to
declare that the Senator is the actual
leader of the Republican party in the
Idaho, and that suggestions from him
are entirely proper. There are a
good many who would like to know
what Senator Hart thinks of the stu
alton, but he appears to have taken
very few into his confidence and they
are not talking
Candidates Comes to Boise.
By peculiar coincidence four as
pirants for Governor were in Boise
on Wednesday. They were Col, L.
II. Dewey of Nampa former Seua-
tor Fred Gooding of Shoshonc; Capt,
F. G. Davis, and Acting Governor
Taylor.

Decidedly optimistic regarding the
affairs of the Black Canyon Irrigation
District, w. r. Cupp returned We'd
ncsday evening from Washington,
where he had gone in the interests of
the settlers of that district
Mr.. Cupp received assurances of
help from the Department of the In
terror in the proper presentation of
the claims of the district to Congress
next winter The two letters follow
ing show that the department is suf-
ficicntly interested to detail two en-
gineers to help in the surveys and de-
tail work necessary to put the plans
of the district in such form as to be
ineligible to Congress.
August, 81, 1915.
Dear Mr.. Davis:
In accordance with our talk over
the telephone, | have told Mr.. Cupp
that you were authorized, without fur
Their action on my part, to assign two
engineers to assist the local engineers
on the Black Canyon enterprise, for a
thirty-day period
1t is to be distinctly understood that
these engineers are carrying on inves-
legations within the law under which
we hold this appropriation, and which
authorizes us simply to make investi-
cations, and that our action in putting
these engineers on this work in no
way is intended to bind the govern
ment to any further action whatever
in connection with this enterprise
This should be distinctly understood
by the people of the Black Canyon
district, so that they may have no
false hopes of our action by regarding
at as a basis for speculation in land
values. Mr. Cupp says that he will
undertake to see that his people have
a clear understanding of this matter
They are attempting to gather the
necessary data with which to go to
Congress and ask them for an appro-
priation. They think that it will help
them if two of our engineers were as.
sociatcd for time in this work. This
is the full significance of the ster
taken.
Very truly yours.
FRANKLIN X. LANE.

in the nitrate fields, his performed a
considerable amount Of development
work since the material for the Mans
field report was obtained. The rock
formation has been penetrated to the
extent Of from Is to 30 feet in num-
Der of places from which samples
have been taken out for test A crush
er is being operated, teaching watts
are in use and chemist is constantly
engaged in testing samples.
Merely an Indication.
81 do not know who Mr.. Mansfield
is or what experience he has had in
work of this character" said an ex-
perienced mining man who recently
visited the field, "and | have no de-
sire to question his report, but he is
certainly mistaken regarding the So
called 'veinIets.' These 'vcinlets' arc
merely cracks, crevices or assures in
the rock into which the nitrate de-
posts have been leached by the elc-
ments. Tests have shown that the
further the rock is penetrated, the
higher is found the percentage of nj
trate. This would seem to prove that
the deposits in the crevices were
placed there by nature and came from
the rock adjoining.
Improves With Depth.
"The American Nitrate company is
working quietly and expending large
sums in the development. 1t has found
that the nitrate deposit extends for
distance of two miles back from
the creek on the west side and about
half a mile on the cast side. The
rock in which the nitrate is found
might bedescribed as variety of
rhyolite of eruptive nature The fact
that the nitrate has been found in
about equal percentage wherever test
holes or tunnels have been driven
would indicate that it pertains to the
entire field. 1t is not confined to
veins or assures, but was plainly
leached into them from the rock by
the elements. This has been demon
strated by tests of rock samples Sc
cured at some distance from the is-
sures. The company is not relying
upon the hssure or vein deposits 1t
looks to the rock from which the is-
sures were filled There is an enor-
nous quantity OF nitrate bearing rock
in the fields and while the entire field
has not been thoroughly tested as yet,
the results thus far obtained indi-
cate the existence of vast deposit
of nitrate"

REORGANIZATION STEPS
TAKEN BY STATE
LAND BOARD
Especial to Caldwell TribuneD

Boise, September 3. - Further
changes in the state land department
are in contemplation. if the action
taken by the state land board at a
meeting held today may be taken as
foreshadowing events to come. The
board today gave further considera-
ton to the question of economizing in
that department A committee consis-
ting of Auditor Huston, Acting Regis
ter Hale and Assistant Attorney Cen
cral Wing was appointed to carefully
look into the situation with a view to
further reducing the number of ap-
pointees. This is in line with a sug-
gestion coming from Governor Taylor
and warmly supported by other mem
bers of the board.
A member of the board stated to a
Tribune representative today that the
position of register would not be fill
ed which would seem to indicate that
former Secretary of State Clifford was
not to be appointed to the position.
By leaving the position vacant and by
having Chief Clerk Hale act as regis
ter without additional salary, a saving
of $500 per annum can be accomp-
lished.
The board will hold another meet
ing tomorrow when it will decide
whether the securities recently trans
ferred from the land Office to the
state treasurer's office shall remain
in the latter Office or be returned to
the land office. At present there are
four employees, drawing a total of
$3.50 per month, working on these
records in the treasurer's office whose
services were not required were the
change made. 1t has developed how
ever that delinquences on some of the
loans and the sale of contracts may
justify additional assistance to efici-
emily take care of this business.

TEMPORARY CONTRACT MADE
BETWEEN TWO DISTRICTS
Succor Greek and Gem Districts Can
Be of Mutual Help and
Benefit

Tuesday a temporary contract was
closed between the Gem Irrigation
District and the Succor Creek Irriga-
ton District, according to the terms
OF which the two districts will COM
bine and build the works of the lat
ter
BY turning part of the waters of
Succor creek 10 the Gem District at
the proper time each year it is esti-
mated that saving OF at least $lS,-
10000 will be effected The Gem
District pays for power at the rate
reached at the highest Peak" that is,
il pays for the entire season at the
rate used during the half-hour in
which they consume the greatest
amount OF power BY turning in Sue
cor creek water when the Gem volume
begins to raise will tend to equalize
the power lead and keep the seasons
bill down to the amount OF $lS,OOO00
This will be clear saving annually
OF this amount 10 the Gem District
and makes the contract most advan-
tageous to both districts.
The Succor Greek District.
TUESDAY evening State Field En-
gineer Of Oregon II. X Donnelly, and
Engineer Guy MCGEE returned from
an inspection OF the Succor Creek
district, looking to a report to the
state engineer
Mr. Donnelly said the Succor creek
proposition was one of the finest he
had ever examined both because of
the cheap cost OF construction and the
fine sites for dams and reservoirs, as
we'll as the fact that the land laid so
close to the water supply.

FEDERAL EXPERT THINKS
NITRATE DEPOSIT IN VEINS
Opinion Not Popular With Homedale
Nitrate Workers.


Nitrate Workers.
The United States Geological Sur
vey Just published bulletin on the
nitrate deposits on Succor Creek,
near Homcdale, Ida, based upon the
report of an examination made in the
fall of 1914 by G. X. Mansfield. The
bulletin is anything but flatterlng to
the nitrate fields and is not confirmed
by the results OF development work
performed in the district since Mr..
Mansfeld's examination was made.
The departmental rcfcrance to the
report says:
Discovered by Boys.
1.-TWO boys at play in cave were
the means Of discovering deposits OF
nitrate near Homedale, Ida. In the
spring OF 1914 the young sons OF
George d. Huntley. whose ranch lies
in the canyon of Succor creek, were
PLAYING in a small cave at the base OF
A cliff in the canyon about half a
mile below their home. Having
started a fire in the cave, they were
surprised to find that some of the
white material at the back of the cave
and in the crevices of the rock
took fire and burned vigorously. About

HIGH SCHOOL ENROLMENT
IS HIGHEST THIS YEAR

Indications are that enrolment in
the local high school will be consider
ably larger this year than last, Al
noon Wednesday the total has reached
22s and this will be quite materially
increased in the next few days, En-
rollment in the grades throughout the
city seems to be but normal.
Glen +. Smith, elected to the posi-
ton of teacher of science in the high
school, was expected to arrive here
Wednesday evening from Oklahoma:
Though elevated to the position OF
principal, Professor Neal will have
charge of athletic activities. for which
work he was originally selected. With
all but one of the members OF last
years football team in school this
year, prospects for that game are par
ticularly bright.
