WATER MEET
ING HELD
Litigation Not the Object
Says Water User.

The meeting last Saturday night for
the purpose of discussing an organiza-
tion of the water users of this tract,
and to cooperate with water users of
represented. The proposed articles Of
Incorporation, as presented to the meet
ing were taken up and thoroughly dis
cussed, and the concencious of opinion
among the thinking men was, against
the proposition to incorporate for
100000 with stock that would be liable
to assessment for any debts that
few men might see fit to incur.
A committee of five consisting of
per, w. t. Dougherty, c. o. Paulson,
James Green and ]. Mulvaney, was se-
lected to draft articles for a water US
ers organization and to meet with
the committee from the other tracts
at Shoshone Saturday night, August
7th. Senator Fred Gooding express
Sed the sentiment OF the people IN the
meeting held at Shoshone last Thurs
day night, when he said that he abso
lutely was against any organization
that was being launched for the pur
pose of fighting the Idaho Irrigation
Co., but that he was ready to affiliate
with, and lend his support to water
users organization that could work in
harmony with the company and for
the benefit of the whole people.
Such an organization would meet
with the support of the majority, but
when a few people with a fancied
grevience attempt to foster upon the
people an organization for the purpose
of washing their dirty linen the level
headed and conservative farmers of the |
different tracts will put their stamp |
of disapproval upon it.
Let US get together in a sane and |
business-like manner and perfect a |
water users organization that will be
beneficial and educational to the whole |
people, and not permit few agitators
to start something at this time that
will act as a boomerang, and to the
detriment of the whole project.

AUGUsT5
FOR THE SETTLER.

The following article taken from the
Southern Idaho Democrat expresses
the feelings of many people:
The editor OF this paper has lately
published a couple of articles on the
water shortage in this county and a
few days ago gentleman and a heavy
water user under the Idaho Irrigation
company project approached us and
said that from the tone of our articles
we were taking the side of the com
pany as against the settler.
This has never been our intention.
We are for the settler first, last and
all the time, but what we have been
advocating is settlement without go
ing into the courts for just as we said
in the last ISSUE if every man who
thinks he is damaged should go into
court, the litigation will last for years.
and during the life of this litigation
our project would be at a standstill
A water users association is all
right, If organized for the right pur-
pose, and we do not oppose any such
organization, but on the other hand
believe that the time is near when such
an organization will be a necessity in
order that all may be properly repre-
sented in whatever comes up and have
a voice in the turning over of the pro-
ject by the company to the settler.
But we do hope that there will not
be bunch of law suits started, for
as we said before, we believe that we
have the best project, best climate and
best water right in Idaho, and litigation
would set us back for several years
We understand that the meetings
that have been held are not for the
purpose Of starting litigation, but on
the other hand, the organization con-
is to work with the company
so that the settler may have thor
ough understanding of conditions when
the time comes for them to take over
the project
An organization of that kind will be
Of benefit to the company, to the set
Her and to the project.

MAKES GOOD SHOWING.

County Assessor Bert Bowler has
made a reputation along the line of
assessing that cannot be beaten in the
state and has handled all his work
alone.
The board of equalization at their
recent meeting made but three changes
and two lowered. This speaks well
in his assessments, one was raised
for the judgment and fairness of Mr..
Bowler, as many of the counties had
hundreds of changes.
He has shown by his assessments that
he Is absolutely fair and that there
Is not a man in Lincoln county who
can dictate to him when it comes to

TO FINANCE CROP MOVEMENT

WASHINGTON, August 2.-Prelim-
the resources of the federal reserve
system in the annual fall movement of
crops have been worked out by the
federal reserve board. Writing to the
twelve regional banks, the board point
ed out in letter made public today
how members of the system may help
to finance the crop movement
The boards action was taken, the
letter says, to forestall any possibil-
ity of congestion of crops this fall or
lack of financial accommodation to
mve them and to avoid a recurrence
of the stringency which in the past
has marked this movement.
Although the board applies its plan
to wheat. corn and all other cereals,
it devotes much attention to the cot
ton crop, which it says, is peculiarly
sensitive to abnormal conditions, such
as now exist in the export trade.
The board calls special attention to
the marketing of the cotton crop be-
cause it is Clearly to the common in
terest that credits be based upon this
crop be protected as far as possible
from the danger of Generalization"
1t shows that no staple commodity is
subject to greater variations in prices
than cotton an6 quotes figures show
ing an average annual fluctuation on
the New York exchange of 5.3S cents
per pound. 1t continues:
Similar means may be taken to aid
in financing other agricultural pro-
ducts, the letter says. wherever there
is available a system of warehouses,
elevators or other approved means of
storing and certifying
The board calls attention to it's re-
cent regulations as to trade accep-
tances, saying that such acceptanes
when growing out Of transactions in
are eligible for rediscount with re-
volving the movement of staple crops,
serve banks and their use should aid
in the marketing of crops.

The house was beautifully decorat
ed in yellow and brown with cattails,
California poppies and African daisies.
There were about sixty guests pres
ent. After an enjoyable program, con-

HAD SOME TIME.

About twenty of the Richfield sports
boarded the HALEY special last Sun
day morning and accompanied the
Shoshone baseball team and rooters to
the "City in the Hills" Not only did
Richfield furnish her share of loyal
fans, but she also furnished ''Haileys
Goat" Ed. Fiendel's goat being used for
this purpose.
About $50 people were aboard the
train that carried the merry throng
along and a livelier and more enthusi-
astic crowd was ntver seen. The
Gooding band was along and furnished
music for every event.
The train was men by the HALEY
band and about 300 of her citizens.
Right there the fun started. A parade
was formed and everyone proceeded
to march down town. From then on
the Shoshone, Richfeld and other
crowds were the guests of the Haley
ties, and for good live bunch of en-
tertainers, they can't be beat.
After the ball game which was, af-
ter hard struggle, won by Shoshone
by the close score Of to 2, the picture
show was started. This was followed
by a dance in the opera house until
train time, the train leaving on her
return trip at 11:1S p. m. Everyone
aboard was more than pleased with
the manner in which the people OF
HALEY had treated them

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
fsouthern Idaho Democrat.)

American physicians have discover
ing anaesthesia during childbirth
which is rivaling the German so-cal :
led twilight sleep" and is considered
by many surgeons and obstetricians
to be superior to it 1t is said to be
not at all dangerous to child or mother,
can be used in many circumstances
where the German method is out of
the question, and is less expensive and
less troublesome.
This method is known as the gas
oxygen method and is in use in most
Of the large hospitals of New York
Brooklyn and other American cities.
Many physicians are using it in their
private practice, as special surrounds
ings are not necessary for the sue
cess Of the method. Although the
mother is conscious and rational
throughout the process of childbirth,
she is insensible to pain after the at
tendant physician begins to adminis-
ter the gas.
A New York reporter talked to
mother to whom DR.. E. Rodney Fiske
Of Brooklyn administered this method
recently and who described the pro-
cess. Two tanks, one containing oxy-
gen, the other containing NITROUS OK
ide gas ere connected to an appa-
ratus by means of which a physician
controlled the mixture of gas and reg
ulated its flow into a cup which fitted
over the patients nose.
Upon the patient telling the physi
clan that pain was setting in, the gas
was turned on, the patient breathing
it through the nose. Although she
could feel muscles contra yting, the
pain was deadened. Between the pc
riods of action of the muscles the
gas was turned off being applied again
at the first approach of pain.
This patient was conscious through
out the process and spoke to the ply
sician continually. She knew when
the child was born and heard what
was said in the room at the time,
repeating the words to the
physicians and nurses, yet she felt no
pain.
II experienced practically no suf-
fering," she said, "and at the time
Of the actual birth, although I was

true, and 1 expected to wake from a

which usually follow child birth.

third day after her baby was born, and |

mother was on her feet the fourth day |

DR.. Fiske, who has been using the

method: "The gas s-oxygen method i

case, whether complicated or not.
at can be used with hysterical or
lervous patients. Many obstetricians
lave adopted the method and it is
Llso in use to a considerable extent

Many physicians agree that the gas
xygen method is an improvement ov-
r the drug twilight sleep and that
t is safer and allows natural birth.
