KING HILL TAX CASE
DECIDED FOR STATE
King Hill Project Are Subject to
Taxation.

Carey-act lands are subject to taxa
ton even before patents have been
actually issued by the government, ac-
cording to Judge Mccarthy, who has
decided a case embracing this ques-
ton, that of Popeat VS.. Owyhee coun-
ty, and involving lands under the King
Hill project. The progress of this case
through the district court has been
watched with interest by many people
in Twin Falls county, owing to the
similarity of the various legal features
with similar difficulties arising on the
Salmon tract in connection with taxa
ton.
In the case of the King Hill project,
as in the case of the Salmon river
project, the government has declined
to issue patents to the lands, in the
first instance, because of faulty con-
struction of irrigation works, and in
the second because there is not suffi
cient water for the lands embraced in
the segregation. In the Boutwell, case,
recently decided by the supreme court
of the United States, which Judge
Mccarthy follows as a precedent, the
issue of taxes was raised on an en-
try where proof had been made as
required by law and accepted by the
government, and where the issuance of
patents was matter of form only. On
both the King Hill and the Salmon
river projects, although for different
reasons, the government has taken a
position that it would not issue pat
ents under existing conditions, and the
entrymen on these projects have felt
that inasmuch as they were not as
sured of titles to the lands, the lands
could not legally be assessed.
Captain Davis, attorney for the
plaintiff in the case just decided,
states that an appeal will be made
through the supreme court as prompt
ly as possible, and, should the judg
ment there be adverse, that the case
will be carried to the supreme court
of the United States.
: In his decision, Judge Mccarthy
Estates:
"Plaintiff has resided on the land
since April 1, 1909, and has at all
times during each and every irrigation
season been furnished with sufficient
water to supply all his requirements.
The company and its successors, the
state, have at all times since 1909 fur
nished an ample supply of water for
the irrigation of all land under the
first unit. The plaintiff has made his
proof to the state and received final
certificate from the state. The state
has not offered proof to the federal
government that it has supplied an
ample supply OF water in a substantial
ditch.
ut is clear that an ample supply of
water has been furnished, thus the
questions narrows itself down to
whether or not this has been done in
a substantial ditch. 1t would seem
that they (the engineers) found some
fault with the canal Still it appears
that it has been sufficient to deliver
-. l. IL.
to some others for a period of about
seven years. l think that it may be
said from all the evidence that the
canal is a substantial one"

tween San Francisco and the Orient

dent and general manager. The de-
cision, which was reached Monday,
will restore to the Pacific sea lanes
the house flag of the company, which
was a familiar sight there until last
August, when it was lowered from the
foremost of the Mongolia, which. with
four other vessels of the former fleet,
was sold to the Atlantic Transport
company, when the company decided
it could not compete with the Oriental
lines under the provisions of the new
seamen's law.
Besides the Ecuador, the company
will arrange regular sailing schedules
for the steamers Colombia and Venez-
uela.
Returning from the Orient, the
Ecuador will touch at the same ports
as on the outward voyage, with the
exception of Manila, and will arrive in
San Francisco on August %. All the
vessels will fly the American flag

GERMANS PUSH
NEW OFFENSIVE
Crown Prince Throws Several
Divisions Against French.
UNABLE TO BREAK THE LINE
ANYWHERE.
Last Remaining Mine Crater Captured
by kaiser's Troops Retaken With
Additional Trenches by British.

Without a pause, the German crown
prince, taking advantage of the evacu-
alton of the Bethincourt salient by the
French and the occupation of that po-
sition by the Germans, has thrown sew
eral divisions against the new French
line, but so far has been unable to
break that line at any point.
The bombardment of the whole front
west of the Mouse is of increasing in
tensity on both sides. Germans NOV
ing down along the Haucourt-Bethin-
court line attacked the French posi-
lions south of the FORCES brook. Here
they had to face the full fury of the
French guns, which cost them heavy
losses. The French front along the
strategic sector extending from lie
Mort Homme to Cumieries remained
unmoved and further attempts to take
French curtain of fire.
The French still hold their positions
in the Caillette wood, which has been
the scene Of heavy fighting, and
against which German attacks have
been directed daily.
From the Dvina river to the lower
Stripa there has been sporadic fight
ing between the Russians and the Ger
mans. Considerable activity by the
airmen of both sides also has been
shown. Near Komora, in the Pripeet
marsh region, German attack
launched by means of boats, broke

RECRUITING OFFICE IS
OPENED IN THIS CITY
Effort Made to Increase the Forces of
United States Army-Many Advan-
tages Suggested by Officers.

First Sergeant V. R. Bell of the
United States infantry and Corporal
James Riley of the United States cav
airy have opened a recruiting station
in room s of the Bank and Trust
building, and are prepared to tell the
young men of the advantages of Join
ing the army at this time, when there
is a demand for 10000 to fill the regi-
ments now provided for, and when
there promises to be a demand for 25,-
900 shortly to provide for the addi-
tional forces about to be added Ser
geant Bell has established four recruit
ing stations within the last three
weeks, the others being in Pocatello,
Idaho, and Ogden and Power, Utah.
Speaking of the matter to a TIMES
representative, Sergeant Bell said
1.-THE opportunities for advancement
in the army are the best now and
within the following months that the
history of this country has afforded.
The hardy western men Injured to an
outdoor mode of life have been found
to make excellent soldiers, especially
in the cavalry service, as they are used
to riding. The exceptional induce
ments at the present time are bringing
many eX- soldiers back to the service.
"The Salt Lake office sent cut three
men Monday and one on Tuesday An
other is waiting for authority to join
! the quartermaster corps in Mexico
and still another had to give one
weeks notice to the bureau of mines
where he holds the position of govern
ment stenographer.
Most of the applicants applying ash
for service in Mexico, the government
paying their transportation and othel
expenses, thereby giving the men al
opportunity to see some foreign coun
try. 1t is hoped that the Twin Fall
office may furnish a number of appli
- cants for the cavalry, as so many cav
alrymen are being used in the chas

SCHOOL BOARD BUYS
THE ASHTON CORNER
Decides Difference in Price to BE In
sufficient to Warrant Condemnation
Proceedings.

The school board at its meeting last
night decided to pay the price of $4250
set upon the Ashton corner by its
owner, William Ashton, rather than go
into court to endeavor to condemn the
property for $4,000, the price offered.
A delay of one month would result in
greater loss interest than the diff
ference involved, besides the incidental
delay in beginning construction and
the uncertainty of the judicial deci-
sion. The plans for the school have
been drafted by Burton E. Morse.
