Legislative Redlstricting.

vides that reapportionment OF the
State into Senatorial and House Dis
tricts shall be made In the year
every tenth year thereafter" This
General Assembly in 1919 and 1914
failed to comply with this specific
mandate of the organic law. and / am.

making an apportionment rests with

Recommendations.
The time has fully come for an
adequate law for the preservation and
propagation of game and inland FISH.
A law properly regulating the bust
ness of commission merchants is
urgently needed
Our forms OF indictment are relics
of medieval times, and much Of our
court procedure badly needs simplify
ing. In no other way can the insist
ent outcry of indignant litigants at
the laws delays be satisfied. I re-
peat the recommendation In my iu-
augural address that the Supreme
Court OF Appeals should be given au-
thority to promulgate rules of pro-
|eedure for all courts as recommended
by the Virginia Bar Association.
At the last session the sum of s110.-
600 was appropriated to be used, II
necessary, in the eradication of foot
and mouth disease. / am glad to say
that only $13.S5492 of this sum was
expended, and that the State has for
nearly a year been free of the dis
ease. 1t is gratifying to know that
so much Virginia property was saved
at such a small cost compared with
other States. Illinois spent s2,35s,-

Beatson-Bonanza Mine.

The Kennecott Copper Company took over the operations of the Beat son-Bonanza mine, on Latouche is land. During the year a large plant for the concentration of the lower grade ores, chiefly by the flotation system, was nearly completed at this mine. A new Marcey ball mill, an Oliver continuous filter press and Ruggles dryers are being installed, the power for which is furnished by two 800 k. W. electric generators. Di- rect connections are made with two steam turbines, the steam for which is furnished by three larger water tube boilers. oil is used forsfuel. The rated capacity of the mill when com pleted is 75O tons per day. Develop ment work at the mine was continued as usual by open cults, tunnels and drifts. The ore is benched or blasted off from a high cliff at one end of the cut and bulldozed in the open cut The ore is then sent down through chutes to an adit, 1,400 feet long, driven on the mill level, where it is loaded in cars and trammed by horse power to the mill. The surface equip ment consists of mill, blacksmith shop, boiler and engine house, store, bunk and mess houses, and commo- dious bunkers and wharf for large steamers. The average number of men employed during the year was ITO.
 Development work was done on sev- eral copper properties on Knights is land. but no shipment of ore made. On the Dickey Company's property

Mother Lode.

Development work was continued on the Mother Lode property, 1 1-4 miles northeast of the Kennecott- Bonanza mine, and on the Westover claim on Dan creek. The Mother Lode deposit consists of chalcocite and is situated in the same shear zone as the Kenne- cott-Bonanza mine, but is on the Me Carthy creek side of the ridge between Kennecott glacier and Mccarthy creek.
 A tramway 1000 feet long conveys the ore from the mine to the bunk CTS on Mccarthy creek, from which it is hauled fourteen miles on sleds to the railroad at Mccarthy station. Plans have been made and some of the material is on the ground for the construction of a concentrating plant at the lower bunkers on Mccarthy creek. A compressor plant will be installed to furnish power for the mining of the ore, as at present hand drilling and mining are done.
 There was some development work on a number of other copper proper ties in this district, but no ore was shipped. Such work was also done on claims on Hidden creek and Lak- ina river.
 Development work was being done on the Era and Glacier claims by the Kennecott Mining Company, prepara- tory to taking out ore and doing ac- tive mining.

GERMAN ARMY IN SOUTH AFRICA
 PR|SONED

CAPE TOWN, Union of South Af- rica, March 21. - Only one isolated mountain outpost, consisting of com pany of native troops and four Ger man officers, remains of the German army in the Kameruns. This outpost is at Mora, on an almost inaccessible night which forms one of the most northerly spurs of the Mandara range, in the far north of the country. From its fortressed position, this German garrison looks down on the plains, several thousand feet below, stretching northward toward Lake Chad. For a year and a half the i'm prisoned garrison has been blockaded by British and French forces and cut off from the outer world.

 The Kennecott-Bonanza and Kenne- cott-Jumbo mines were inspected De- cember 13 and IA Mining and devel- opment work were carried or at those properties throughout the year. There were PIT men employed, in the mill and surface works of the company, at the time of visit. An average Of I09 men were employed under ground during the year at the two mines. Both mines have aerial tramways, each 16,000 feet long, connecting the mines with the mill About 750 tons of ore is mined from both mines every day. and trammed to the mill, where III sacked without sorting or concentra- tion, and the lower grade ore crushed and run over concentrating tables, and the concentrates sacked for ship ment. The largest part of the ore mined is copper glance and covilite, and does not need any treatment at the mills other than crushing and sacking. The carbonate ore is found in the mine to a depth of 700 feet, and probably deeper, as this is the great est depth attained in either mine. The Jumbo mine incline was just down to the 700 level, and a station and ore pocket cut. A new teaching plant was being constructed to treat the carbon ate ores that are lost in the tailings, from the mill. which contain about one per cent copper. An entirely new pro cess from any ever tried anywhere is being put in and is called the "am- monia process" This is the first plant of it's kind ever built for large operations. It is to have rated ca pacity of 450 tons per day, and con sists of thirteen iron tanks about 12 feet high. Four are 30 feet in dia- meter, three 16 feet and six are 12

Rates on Sheep Reduced

Following an extended study by the
public utilities commission of the mat
ter of livestock rates from branch
lines in Idaho to Missouri river points
and Chicago, it was found that some
rates are not upon an equal basis
with others. The matter was taken
up with the Short Line officials, and a
new schedule will be published soon
materially lowering carload rates. The
following changes were agreed upon,
which will result in reduction of $3.50
on the carload of sheep. The old
rate from either Boise or Emmett to
Missouri river points was 7s15 cents;
the new rate is 7615 cents. The rates
on cattle, hogs and horses are also to
be revised and proportionate re-
duction is predicted. The rates will
be published in time for the seasons

.ENJ0IN WASTE DITCH
OWNERS
Last Chance Ditch Co. Objects
to Dumping of Waste Water
in Their Canal

Seeking to prevent some 60 land
owners in the territory between
the Canyon canal and the Last Chance
ditch from using that irrigating
system as channel to carry off waste
water, the Last Chance Ditch company
has applied to Judge Bryan for an in
junction.
The problem of disposing of waste
water along the East Slope has been
knotty one, and has caused more or
less trouble. All waste ways lead to
the Last Chance canal and the COM
pany claim their irrigation system is
being injured thereby, hence the in
junction proceedings.
r. B. Wilson, who is one of the
defendants in the case has called
meeting of all person living between
the Last Chance ana Canyon canals
to be held Saturday evening of this
week, at 1880, in the county court
room, for the purpose of discussing
the situation and determining what
action shall be taken in the matter

TWIN FALLS THE PLACE
Republican State Convention to be

MRS. MOORE LOSES
Shaw Estate of S25, 700 to be Divided
Among Heirs

The decision of the probate court of
Canyon county in the Heny T. Shaw
estate, valued at $4,000, was reyers-
ed by Judge Bryan this week. His
decision directs that the codicil and
will of Shaw be set aside and that the
estate be divided through the usual
process of the probate court This
decree will give to Shaw's widow,
Mrs. Henrietta Peterson, the bulk of
the estate.
The case is an interesting one and
attracted attention. Henry T. Shaw,
a sheepman living near Parma, was
a brother of Mrs. Francis Moore of
this city. In 1907, before Shaw mar
ried, he made a will to which was
added after his marriage
cordicil which barred his wife from
sharing in the estate should his widow
marry again. She remarked, and
Mrs. Moore brought suit in the pro
bate court to have the codicil approved
and the property given to herself and
son Roy. The codicil was lost, but
Judge Meek ruled that its existence
was sufficiently proven. When tried
in district court, Judge Meek's de-
cision was reversed.
