states that there will be considerable
building activity in Gem county this

A movement is underway to dis
place R. H. Elder as Democratic ma
tional committeeman for Idaho, and
advocating Hon. Jerome L. Day, OF
Moscow for that position. 1t is good.
There has long been a suspicion that
Mr.. Elder does not measure uD to the
standard either in temperament, party
enthusiasm or circums stances. Mr.
Day can qualify all along the line. 1t
is to be hoped that the Democrats of
Canyon county. who have suffered by
reason of Mr.. Elders incumbency, will
line up solidly for Mr.. Day.-Parma

The department of the interior is
unwilling to so construe the reclama-
ton act as to make it possible for citi-
zens of Idaho who purchase state LAND
under government reclamation pro-
ljects to secure water without residing
within so miles of the land. A re-
quest for modification was recently
made by the state board on the sug.
gestion of Land Commissioner Day
who has been informed that it cannot
be granted without an amendment O
the reclamation act. This ruling, il
persisted in. will prevent Idaho citi
zens from buying state land under gov
eminent reclamation works unless
they are prepared to maintain resi-
dence thereon, as the service will no
supply them with water for irrigation
should they reside more than 81
miles distant. 1t also affects larg,
number of Idaho farmers who hav
purchased state lands under govern
ment projects and have improved
their holdings, but who reside NOR
than so miles distant. Unless the,
move within the residence limit the,
cannot obtain water for irrigation
purposes.
