This paper is publishing some
articles on the subject of irrigation
in the upper Snake river valley, as
1t is proposed to conduct it by devel-
oping the great natural reservoir
sites to store the waters that are
now running to waste. It is proposed
to secure number of great govern
ment loans to finance the project Of
putting the wasting floods on the
rich arid lands and bring the landless
man to the manless land.
Twenty-one newspapers in the up
per Snake river valley are co-operat-
ing in a campaign of education to
show congress and the public the
possibilities thru development of the
Snake river plains and If each
reader Of all these newspapers will
renal their papers to their friends
after reading and otherwise try as
hard as the editors do to spread the
light and the truth and to unfold
the mysteries of the great natural
resources and how to combine them,
1t will do more good than all the
other publicity the valley has ever
had. If.

BOYS EMBEZZLED CARTRIDGES

Cartridges to the number Of $500
of the % caliber disappeared some
time ago when being unloaded from
the dray at Boyle's hardware, and
34OO of them were recovered from
a couple of boys named Bacon and
Showalter. They did not exactly
admit taking them, but they had
them buried in bomb-proof four
feet deep, and the officers walked all
over them picking up checks without
discovering the proof. About 500
cartridges of a different kind were
also recovered and as some of the
dealers had been losing ammunition
that accounted for them.
The boys tailed back all they had
not shot away, offered to pay for
those they had used, and leaves the
public still guessing as to how they
came to have them.

patton tax from the street car COM

PETITIONS HAVE
PLENTY NAMEST0
INSURE RECALL
Checking Up Of Circulars Show
That So Far $500 Favor
Recall of Four Com.
miSSi0ners.

The petition being circulated for
the recall Of Mayor Smith and City
Commissioners Ringer. Ure and
FOWL has beep signed by more than
$500 voters. according 10 the an
nouncement of Attorney ]. R. Lones,
who, assisted by a checking COM
mittee of three, worked until mid
night Tuesday tabulating the sig
1atures to the document
Mr.. Lones declared that $500
names already had been turned in at
headquarters, lll2 Woodmen of the
World building and that there were
l2S copies Of the petition which had
not Yet been turned in.
Means Total of 1000.
"a conservative estimate of the
number of names on the outstanding
lists would place the figure at 500"
said Mr.. Lones. This will increase
the total number of signers to 1000"
The petition will be filed with the
city clerk as soon as the lists, still
IN circulation, are turned in, it was
declared.
The law provides that when the
petition is signed by qualified voters
to the number of 80 per cent of the
total ballots cast in the last munic-
ipal election for the candidate re-
ceivng the highest vote, the city
council shall authorize a special
election within 90 days after the city
clerk has checked up the lists of
signers.
Commissioner Butler received the
highest number of votes in the last
election. His ballots totaled 1890.
Thirty per cent of this would fix the
required number of signers for the
recall at 1882, which would leave
the petition. so far as it has been
checked, regardless Of the lists still
in circulation, with 500 names in
excess of the number required by
law
Clerk to Check Names.
The city clerk is allowed 10 days
in which to check the signatures
after the petition has been filed in
his office. In the event he finds the
necessary number OF regular names
on the document, it is reported to
the city council aud the election is
set within not less than 80 days or
not more than 90 days.
: II the city clerk finds that an in
sufficient number of qualified voters
have signed the petition, the law re-
luires him to report to the city
council, and 10 more days are allow
ed in which to obtain additional
names of voters to be filed as an
amendment to the original petition,
If the final effort to procure the
necessary number of signers is sue
cessful the council is compelled to
authorize a special election. If the
attempt is unsuccessful the petition
will be thrown out and the recall
pronounced a failure.
