PIONEER MAKES
INCREASED LEVY
Many improvements
Contemplated by
District.

Extensive improvements contemp-
lated by the Pioneer Irrigation dis
trict. including lining the Phyllis
canal in places where recent breaks
have occurred, caused the board Of
directors of the district, at meeting
held here Tuesday evening, to slightly
increase the assessment on district
lands for the fiscal year beginning
October !. u.s.
The levy was placed at $l.85 per
care for acreage property and at $l.20
per lot of Is feet for town property
This is an increase of 80 cents per
acre over last years levy for farm
property and an increase of 10 cents
per lot on city property. Levies for
bond interest and the regular pay
ment for Arrow Rock water and on
the federal drainage contract will re-
main where they were last year. This
levy has not been definitely made as
yet but will be authorized in October
The cost to Pioneer water users in
GLIDING all of these several items
will be $3.50 per acre for farm lands
and $l.45 per Is foot lot of city prop,

TRACTION LINES
GET RATE BOOST
Utilities Commission
Grants Request for
Increase.

effect on the Mcneil branch of the
Caldwell Traction company Thurs
day, following the action of the state
public utilities commission in grant
ing the increases that were asked if
the line, now in the hands of c. D.
Purkhiser as receiver, was to operate
without entailing serious loss. No
objection was made at the hearing
to the contemplated increases, which
relate to both freight and passenger
tariffs. Farmers, approaching that
the increased revenue was essential
to the existence of the line, had pre-
viously expressed their entire willing
ness to pay whatever rates were re-
quired to permit the line to continue
operation. Mr.. Purkhiser was pres
ent at the hearing and presented in
detail, as he was asked, some of the
problems confronting the line.
On the shipment of hay and grain
in carload lots Is per cent increase
was granted. All other freight COM
modities, including potatoes, in car
load lots or less. are subject to an
increase of 50 per cent by the action
of the commission.
Passenger rates were raised from
4 cents mile to cents mile, and a
minimum charge of 10 cents was
granted. The commission ordered
that school children could ride for
half fare on school coupon books.
More Cars Come.
Early this week, the traction line
was not adequately supplied with re-
frigerator cars to meet the demand
This matter was presented to George
Erb, a member of the utilities COM
mission, who Immediately negotiated
for additional cars to supply the de-
mand. Wednesday only three cars
were received when 20 would have
been none, too many but Thursday
morning eight were sent out over the
line and that number was expected
to be increased later in the day.
Potatoes are moving rapidly in the
face of a market which shows a daily
decline. Homer Harris, representa-.
tive of the bureau of markets, who
is sending out daily market informa-
ton to growers, has many of the
Canyon county potato producers or
his mailing list. Others may have
the benefit of this service by asking
for it.
On the average, Canyon county pc.
tatoes are not yielding so we'll as
they did last year, although some
growers report crops that compare
favorably with those raised in sea.
sons past. One of the reasons as.
signed for thssomewhat smaller aver
age yield this year is the fact thai
several cars of warehouse selected
seed were shipped in for seeding thi.
spring. Invstigation has shown that
while the seed potatoes were excep
tionally smooth and of uniform size
many of them were infected with
fusarium.

b0URBONS HAVE
QUIET MEETING
At CONVENTION
Calm and Peace Prevail
at Democratic Gather
ing With Well Oiled
Machinery Operating.

Complete calm and peace prevailed
at the Democratic county convention
held at the court house Tuesday aft
ernoon. There was no fight, those
present being unanimous in jumping
on the Republican state administra-
ton and landing the Democratic ma
tional and county administration
records.
Attendance was comparatively
small. ]. J. Walling. selected as
temporary chairman of the meeting,
appointed Edgar Meek, Swain Beatty,
F. w. Byrd, H. Griffin and c. S.
Gibson as committee on credentials
who reported that only 62 to a pos
sible o6 delegates to the convention
had actually been elected and that
not more than half that number were
present at the Tuesday gathering. It
developed that in several precincts,
not even the form of a primary cleo
ton had been gone through.
G. w. Lampson of Nampa, Ross
Madden, A. L. Murphy, Mrs. Edna
Ross and ]. A. Carl Baldridge were
named on the resolutions committee
and while they prepared report, the
convention whi1ed away the time by
calling upon delegates and candidates
for expressions oh the county ma
tion,- state and county Democratic
situation. Short talks were made by
Clarence King, nominee for the state
senate, H. E. Wallace, chairman Of
the county central committee, Mrs..
Edna R. Ross, Judge F. w. Byrd,
Judge r. H. Dunlap of Boise, Judge
S. Ben Dunlap of Caldwell and Frank
Meek.
Stenog. Causes Delay.
Such red hot stuff was pouted into
the ears of the stenographer drafted
to take the resolutions finally drafted
by the committee that she was un-
able to read her own notes. 1t was
only after considerable delay that a
report was finally prepared by the
committee presented on the conven-
ton floor and unanimously adopted.
Mrs. Ross, Harry Griffin, George
Froman, Mr.. Byrd and Mr.. Lamson
were appointed to apportion and ten
tatiyely name the seven delegates
with Canyon county Democrats are
entitled to for representation at the
state convention which meets in Ida
no Falls. Another delay was in order
but finally reported that T. A. Wal
tiers and c. Ben Ross from Caldwell,
Mr.. Lamson and Jess Walling OF
Nampa, Thomas Spillman of Middle
ton and James Newport of Notus had
been selected by the committee.
Without question and by reclamation,
the convention put its stamp of ap-
proval on the men named.
For the state central committee
man, fight might have developed,
some opposition to Mr.. Lamson hav-
ing been considered. But at the last
minute, when Mr.. Lamson was pro-
posed for this position, no effort was
made to enter a second candidate and
he, was unanimously elected.
