elements which have the best righ'

CONTRACT Is WITHDRAWN;
COMMITTEE MAKING NEW ONE

The meeting of the stock holders
Of the Canal company held Tuesday
in Amusement hall in Jerome was
attended very largely by the settlers
of the tract, there being at least
1000 of the stock holders present
The meeting was called primarily
to consider the proposed new contract
offered the settlers, and rs it soon
became manifest that there was great
divergence of opinion as to whether
the said contract would safeguard
the interests of the settlers and the
company at the same time, the pro-
posed contract was withdrawn and d
committee OF thirty-three settlers was
appointed to try to work out a new
contract that would be acceptable
both to the company and the settlers
This committee will, with the with
drawn contract as a basis, endeavor
to insert amendments which will be
satisfactory to all, and on March 1st
there will be another meeting of the
stock holders, at which the COM
mittee will report their new contract
for consideration. 1t is sincerely
hoped by the settlers and the com
pany that a new contract may be de-
vised that will be accepted, as the
welfare of the tract depends large
ly upon getting this matter settled
Other business offended to at this
meeting was the enactment of an
amendment to the bylaws, whereby
only one assessment per year will
be made, instead of two rs hereto
fore, thus saving the settlers some
money. 1t will be paid in two Install
ments the same as before but will
save unnecessary red tape. 1t carried
almost unanimously. Also IN amend
ment to the articles of incorporation
was enacted empowering the COM
pany to drill wells on the tract. oper-
ate telephone lines, etc. This amend
ment also carried by an almost unan-
imOus vote.

which Premier Nitti must be pres
ent, the Italian parliament will have
time only to discuss the program of
the government relative to the pro-
visional budget before adjourning
about the middle of June.
Another important bill con-
templated is one regulating large
estates. especially in southern Italy,
and establishing rules for dividing
them into small holdings.
The governmental authorities are
chiefly interested in restoring the
nations finances, exacting all taxes,
but steadily reducing the deficit. At
the same time the minister is pre-
pairing to take energetic action
against spectators on exchange.
The government has ordered a
rigid inquiry into the recent corner
ing Of the shares Of some companies
and banks. to the detriment Of stock
holders. This inquiry Is to be
especially directed to the indation Of
shares OF the Banca Commsrctale.
Five men, whose interests are en-.
tirely divorced from the financial
world, have been chosen as a COM
mission to direct this inquiry, and
they have been given two months In
which to complete and report their
findings.
