LIGHT PLANT MAKES MONEY
Idaho Falls Combined Plant Exceeds
$4,000 Per Month.

Idaho Falls municipal power plant
seems to be forging ahead at fine
rate, according to Mayor Clark.
He cites that the new plant has
been running without miss for two
years, and that new unit has just
been added, making the generating
capacity 1900 horse power, and the
best of service Is secured. The COM
bined electric and water business
makes a total revenue of $4,000 a
month to the city, and within the
past few days fifteen or twenty new
permits were taken out for water SER
vice.
The mayor also stated that such
items as street crossings and inter-
sections, for which most towns have
to bond, are regularly paid for out of
the revenues received from the city's
plant, and notwithstanding the fact
that the city recently reduced the
lighting rate to seven cents, all the
expense and emergency propositions
are taken care of, and a regular "or-
tion of the revenue is being turnd
into the sinking fund. There is an in
debtedness of $125,000 against the
plant, and the people Of that COM
munity regard the item as mere
trifle, as it is paying out
Water is pumped direct from the
Snake river, and is filtered during
the high water season and very
strong pressure is afforded on mo
ment's notice Another good fea-
ture cited by the mayor was that un-
der the system Of business operated
in Sunnyland it is possible for any
individual to go to the city's records
at any time and tell exactly in few
minutes the amount of building that
has been done in the previous year
or for any other period. All other
records and municipal business is
conducted on the same scale and the
city clerk is paid monthly salary o.
$3.50 and has an assistant at $50, the
latter amount being the salary of thu
Pocatello clerk-Pocatello Tribune.

CASHES NOTES
Investors in New Milling Project VIII
be Compelled to Pay Notes to Bank
Holding Them.

For several months promoters and
agents of the Peoples Milling and Ele-
vator company have canvassed differ
ent sections of this state endeavOring
to induce local capital to invest in
stock in local flour mill Twin Falls
and surrounding territory was canvas
sed by the same people. The cre-
dentials of the men back of it, with
headquarters at Boise are good and
much interest was shown in the plan
to finance flour mills. AS yet there
is nothing to show that the men at
the head of the company are doing
anything but legitimate business.
At Amsterdam a number of infiuen-
tial citizens there entered into the
proposal put up to them by COM
Iany agent named Schain, whereby
| the citizens there were to put up six
thousand dollars and the promotion
company about four thousand. The
contracts called for a number Of pay
ments under certain conditions. The
first payment covered by individual
notes signed by the farmers called
for twenty per cent when the ground
was broken for the mill 1t is stated
by the Amsterdam stockholders that
Schain was to deposit the notes with
contracts at bank in Twin Falls.
Becoming uncertain about ambigui-
ties in the contracts, the men start
ed pressing Schain for satisfaction. In
the meantime, the promoters agent
took the first installment of notes
signed to another bank and cashed
them, the soundness of the Sc
curity making the bank feel sure.
Here the note signers found their pa
per which was supposed to be payable
upon certain conditions. The notes
aggregate about four hundred dollars.
Schain gave the address of a place
where he was going, but has not been
found and the Amsterdam men are
still uncertain about the matter. One
of the local stockholders in the big
company it is understood has offered
to stand good for the amount lost

Constitutional Amendment
Provides for Prohibitionin 1917
ONLY ONE VOTE AGAINST RESO-

Voters Of Idaho May Have Chance
to vote on Question Mt Election Of
1916.

The submission of prohibition con-

proved by the people of the state, May
l, 1917, received practically unani-
nous support of the senate of the
Thirteenth Idaho legislature today for
the upper house put it's stamp of ap-
proval on the Hart resolution, the
first introduced in the senate, which
submits for their rejection or appro-
val to the electors of the state of
Idaho, the question of whether or not
an amendment, known as section 26,
shall be added to article 3 of the con-
stitution, forbidding the manufacture,
sale, keeping for sale and transporta-
ton for sale Intoxicating liquors for
beverage purposes, thereby making
this state perpetually dry. Thirty-one
senators voted for the resolution for
which the platforms of their respec-
tive political parties pledgeh their
members. One senator voted against
1t. He is Enoch W. Whitcomb, of
Lemhi county. Senator Steele, Re-
publican, was i'll and not present when
the vote was taken. The passage OF
the resolution was the main event OF
today's legislative program.

mock county in the chair, the senate
went into the committee of the whole
to consider the Hart prohibition reso-
luton. When introduced this resolu-
ton set July.1, 1917, as the date to be-
come effective. By amendment this
date was set back two months to May
1. Whether or not the fact that the
resolution came from the whip" of the
majority and the mouthpiece of the
Republican administrative wing o.
state government, indicates that the
prohibition program for the present
session will stop with prohibition
amendment and, therefor, bar the en-
actment of prohibition bill effective
Jan. /, 1916, is uncertain. 1t is believed
that it does, by those claiming to b'
familiar with the legislative program.
