FROM THE MIND OF A
DREAMER.

When the history of the present
project to reclaim virtually all OF
southern Idaho, so long the haunt OF
rabbits and the home of sage, has
been written, it is safe to say that l, D.
Perrine will be given credit for
dreaming the realities of that tomor-
row. Thirty-four years ago, Mr.. Per-
rine came to the now justly famous
Blue Lakes in then desolate canyon
on Snake river near Twin Falls and
planted an orchard. He> was then
what he is now, man who could look
ahead who knew that southern Idaho's
destitute plains were destined to
bloom under the magic of water and
who had the courage to advocate his
dreams until they have become the
promise of not too remote tomor-
row.
Mr.. Perrine was a poor man then.
He is not wealthy now, so far as
even Idaho affluence is measured. He
has been criticised, attacked and some
times ridiculed. But it must be said
for him that not many men in south
ern Idaho have so persistently main
tanned that the Snake river valley hal
a future, would some day be re-
claimed desert and who so believed II
that he was willing to stake his slen-
der resources on that eventuality
Had southern Idaho more men of the
Perrine type, southern idaho, it is safe
to say, would be generation in ad
vance of its present development.

Nine million dollars was raised in d
very short time. By the time the
United War Work Campaign was pre-
sented, the Salvation Army had been
so universally acknowledged by the
soldiers and sailors, by their generals,
by the national newspapers and maya
zines, by the public in general and by
the United States government that
the Salvation. Army was included for
an additional three and one half
million dollars in the budget of that
campaign.
The tremendous war work of the
Salvation Army both at home and
overseas, had crippled is peace opera
tons. Thousands of Salvation Army
officers and soldiers at home and
abroad, had bent all their energies
towards war work. Officers to man,
and money to finance, the local corps
and institutions of the army had been
largely diverted to war work. Build
ing programs had been entirely aband-
oned for many months; in short, there
was the most urgent need for great
movement to reinstate the peace work
of the Salvation Army; not only to
a pre-war basis, but also on an ex-
tended scale, commensurate with the
vastly greater demand made upon the
organization by the public as result
of the war record and popularity OF
the army. Hence the need Of the
present campaign.-Contributed.

the finest section of the United
States to be situated right here in
Idaho.
Just what the details of the plan are,
have not been made public. On the
surface, if the men who are backing
the proposition may give any basis
for forming that conclusion, there is
nothing to warrant belief that will
not be pushed to completion. Practi-
cally without exception, the Idaho
hackers of the project are men of
means who have faith in Idaho's flu
ture. Time must elapse~ before Idaho
people can comprehend the signifi-
canoe, the enormity of the develop
ment contemplated. 1t will reach to
the farthermost sections of southern
Idaho and touch every person who is
now a resident of the Snake river
valley.

WHAT 1T MEANS.

All Idaho was electrified last FRIDAY
with the announcement that s54O0O
acres of southern Idaho land were in
cluded in gigantic reclamation
scheme which is being backed by
some of the wealthiest men in Idaho
as we'll as unlimited eastern capital.
Preliminary plans cali for an ex-
penditure of not less than SOS ,00O, 900,
the impounding of 100000 acre feet
of water in one enormous reservoir at
American Falls and the construction
of thousands of miles of canals and
distribution laterals.
Staggering as that is, the project
has even more significance when trans
lated into the figures of achievement
the Boise Valley project with its
acreage which seems almost paltry in
comparison with the enormity of the
new scheme. Completion of a projeci
of the scope now contemplated will
mean railroads, towns and cities
added hundreds of thousands of cat
tie, horses and sheep, and almos,
double the present population Of
southern Idaho.
1t will mean wealth, prosperity, and

A CHANCE TO HOWL.

While President Wilson is tearing
around the circuit fighting for the
league of nations and while the Re-
publican senator's of the same states
which Mr.. Wilson is touring are also
out transforming but against the
league, the ordinary congressional
routine is apparently almost at stand
still. Sometimes we are prone to be-
lieve that it doesn't matter particular
ly, that congressional legislation
doesn't affect us directly in this COM
paratively out of the way municipality.
And sometimes we are unduly awak-
ened from our complacency with the
realization that what congress may
do or may not do does vitality concern
us. This is one of those infrequent
times.
Every Caldwell citizen should pro-
test at the utter neglect of provisions
for reclamation. Six thousand of the
finest southern Idaho acres, waiting
only water to add to the productivity
of Caldwelrs surrounding territory
face another desert year because con-
gress is too interested in the peace
and league pacts to consider domestic
needs.
The Mondell bill, upon which idaho
based her hope for an era Of unpre-
cedented irrigational development is
doomed, if we are to credit current
advices from Washington. But recla-
nation is not dead. Funds to further
theS work of transforming western
deserts and southern swamps will be
provided sometime. But six thou

FARMERS AND THE TRACTION
LINE.

If Mr.. Sebree's wish that the Cald-
well Traction lines may become the
property of Canyon county farmers
residing in the district served by the
interurban line, becomes a reality, this
county will have something approach
ing the Socialistic principles of own
ership long advocated by those dis
satisfied with private ownership of
public utilities. In the event such ar
rangement is made, the success at
tendant upon the venture will be
watched with considerable interest.
1t must be said, however, that there
is considerable merit in Mr.. Sebree's
suggestion. In plain terms, the Cald-
well Traction lines are not paying in
terest on the enormous sum invested
Until some radically different attitude
is assumed regarding public utilities
by the federal government and by the
several states, it never will. Street
railways and interurban lines over the
entire country are suffering from the
same condition Thirty per cent are
in the hands of receivers. But they
must continue, in general, to operate
and every day sees their losses in
crease.
If any agency is able to bring the
Caldwell Traction lines out of the fire,
it is those people who are directly
instrumental in providing for its well
fare. Cooperative effort should in
crease materially the amount of freight
which that line handles and in which,
of course, the chief source of income
lies. Canyon county has large per-
centage of Nonpartisan members
whose cry has been exactly such an
opportunity for ownership and opera
ton of public utilities as is now pre-
scented. A portion OF their wealth has
been directly due to the influence of
the service rendered them by the
Caldwell Traction lines. The only
question is, are those individuals, as
interested in public ownership and
operation of public utilities as they
profess to bei If they are, then this
occasion preesnts for them an ex-
ceptional opportunity to prove the
merit of their belief.
But we are inclined to believe that
Canyon county farmers will find them
selves alingned with that ever swelling
american group whose present voca-
ton seems to be passing the buck"

WE NEED

Caldwell, the city, Caldwell, the cen
ter of one of Idaho's richest agricul-
tural sections, has various urgent re-
quirements. In public opinion, at
least, worthy hotel stands first and
foremost. But everything possible is
being done to obtain a hotek Con-
tinued effort, resulting from an
aroused sentiment, will make hotel
a reality.
Caldwell should have at least one
hundred residences to accommodate
those families who would make this
their home and are unable to do so
through lack of accommodations. just
as truly, the city needs more business
blocks, more buildings of substan-
tial nature to accommodate the rapidly
expanding commercial demands.
1t was no fool who remarked, "If
your business isn't worth advertising,
advertise it for sale"
Women devour advertisements. II
you doubt it, just step into any OF
Bosses department stores on the
opening day of well advertised sale.
Those firms advertise continually be-
cause it pays, because women look for
their announcements, because it means
more business, rapid turnover and new
2
customers.
Caldwell is losing thousands of dol
lars in legitimate business every month
that goes to Boise. Advertising, per-
sistant, interestingly presented, ligical,
business attracting advertising does it.
Every cent of that money should stay
here. Caldwell has every advantage;
location, transportation, prices.

In the fiery hell of shot and shell,

And the house was torn and married,

And red with the big guns flame,

They lived in house by the side of

And they were friend to man.
For they baked and served and never

Who worked and toiled and baked and
boiled,

FINANCING THE SALVATION
ARMY.

Previous to the war the large cam
paign was practically unknown in
Salvation Army operationsi Funds
were collected by personal solicitA-
ton by the Salvation Army officers
themselves. This method was very
unsatisfactory. The sacrificial serv-
ices of the Salvation Army were not
understood. Interviews were difficult
to secure. Amounts contributed were
small Each of the departments Of
the Salvation Army. sent out thei.
own solicitors to the same prospects
in the same territory. There was much
duplication and overlapping. This
caused great Inconvenience and much
criticism from friends of the Army.
One subscriber might be approached
by several departments in the same
day. Obviously there was great in
efficiency.
The call of millions Of men to the
colors and the needs of hundreds of
thousands of their families was an
unprecedented challenge to the sacri-
flee and service of the Salvation
Army. The Army was obliged either
to find the huge sums of money me-
cessary for the home and overseas
work or to admit for the first time in
its existence, that it could not meas
ure ND to a need; hence, the necessity
for appealing to the whole country
from coast to coast by means Of a
financial campaign, and hence the re-
cent National War Campaign.
Meantime, reports of the work of
the first few Salvation Army officers
at the front had come. home from the
soldier boys themselves, and from
their generals, through the national
newspapers. When the war work
campaign was presented it was swept
on to success by a great wave Of
popularity, enthusiasm and generos-
ity. The people of the United States
now understood the Salvation Army,
thoroughly believed In it, and were
prepared to support it to the limit.

1t is reflection on the representa-

vital matters should be sidetracked

importance, everyone comedies the
necessity of elaboration but surely
there are other matters which may
