RANCHERS' RIGHTS
ARE FINALLY FIXED

The long-stsnding controversy over
the rights of actual settlers against
the claims of the Lemhi Orchard and
Irrigation company to lands on Kirtley
creek has been decided finally by the
secretary Of the interior in favor of
the settlers. The lands in question
were held some years ago by the COM
pany as placer mining ground, when
their holdings were contested as not
being mineral but agricultural lands.
The contestants were Cannon, Hixson,
Schofield and others. The case first
arose before the HALEY land office,
then before the general land office and
finally it reached the ear of the sec
rotary of the interior at Washington,
all of whom have now decided the
same day in the matter-that the
rights of the contesting settlers are
established.
The case for the ranchers was han
died in all its stages by A. c. Cherry,
former Salmon attorney, now residing
at Weiser, while E. W. Whitcomb
looked after the interests of the cor
poration in the controversy.

ENFORCEMENT OF WAR TAX ON
DANCES is SAID TO BE NEXT

An internal revenue officer now in
Salmon has brought a bit of startling
information for the promoters of the
numerous dances held in this commun-
ity during the past two years, which, it
seems, have neglected to pay up Uncle
Sans war taxes. These taxes amount
to approximately 10 per cent of the
receipts. The collection of this tax
may fall upon the owners of the halls
where the dances have been given or
upon the promoters of the dances, it
is not known which, or the govern
ment may choose to hold both for the
liability

QUEST OF IDAHO
GROWN FIELD SEED

Farmers organizations of Illinois,
Ohio. New York. Michigan and Wis
consin are sending representatives
into the state of Idaho this year TO
obtain ldahogrown seed, says an an
nouncement by b. r. Sheehan secre-
tary OF the Idaho Seed Growers as
sociation. who is field agronomist of
the university extension division. This
announcement Is made In connection
with the statement that the Idaho
association. at its annual seed show.
to be held at Nampa in January, will
award cash premiums amounting to
1880
The aim Of the association" says
Mr.. Sheehan, lis 10 boost the seed In
dustry in Idaho. We are going TO cap
italize Idaho grown seed, and the pre-
MUM list just received from the preas
will show that awards are TO be made
which are not eQualled by any other
show of its kind held In the country.
How many farmers or other people
In the state realize the position that
Idaho grown seed assumes when Ii Is
placed % nthe market? Our seed Is In
demand by the seed trade in every
section OF the country and up until
recently that demand has been con-
fined to the seed trade. Idaho grown
seed has been taken up by the eastern
| seed buyers and used as blend with
the poorer quality seed produced In
other sections OF the country. Our
seed has not been sold as Idaho grown
seed
Our clover. alfalfa. beans, peas.
timothy and several other varieties Of
seed cannot be excelled by seed pro-
duced in any other state In the coun-
try. The quality is the best to be had.
and the association is going to create
demand for our seed among the
farming communities in other states.
This year farmers organizations OF
Illinois, Ohio. New York, Michigan and
Wisconsin are sending representatives
into tho state TO purchase some OF our
seed and take 1t direct TO the farmers
in those states,
ITO further this work the associa-
ton Is going to award special pre-
miums on alfalfa. red clover. field and
garden peas. rural and netted gem
potatoes. trebi barley, Dicklow. turkey
red and early Baart wheats. In add
ton awards are to be made for all
other classes OF farm seed. Exhibits
shown at the county and state fair are

VAST ROAD WORK
PROGRAM PLAN

WASHINGTON, September lS-
The unprecedented stimulus given to
highway construction in the United
States In the four years that have
passed since the federal government
entered its policy of aiding road I'm
provement is shown by the fact that
road operations under the federal aid
road act thus far initiated aggregate In
length niue times the distance from
New York to San Francisco.
The federal governments share in
this stupendous undertaking is greater
than the cost of the Panama canal.
The participation of the national gov
ernment in highway Improvement
marked departure from a policy that
had been followed for nearly cen
tury. Federal cooperation with the
states on approximately ''fifty.fifty"
basis has counted more than any other
factor in initiating highway construc.
ton that Is being carried on under
adequate supervision and In accord
ance with a program which coordn.
iates local, state and national needs.
Up TO June 80. 1920. 1855 projects.
involving total OF 29,3l9 miles OF
road, had been approved by the secre'
tary of agriculture. The preliminary
estimate OF the cost of these projects
is approximately s3A 900. 600 OF which
approximately $163.941 900 will be ap.
proved as federal aid On the same
date 2.116 projects, representing ap
proximstely 15,9t4 miles. had either
been completed or were under con
struction.
The estimated total cost Of these
prijects in various stages OF construc
tion and completed Is S200,000,00e

proved by the secretary In the nine
teen months subsequent to the signing
of the armistice and prior TO July /

BOND ELECTIONS.
CITY AND COUNTY

Petitions for the resubmission of Nv,
question OF bond issue fer the city of
salmon are being circulated, the same
oeing numerously signed. The towns

vote iast week, when by a narrow mar.
gin OF less than a dozen votes H..

vi the Well known fact that Salmon is
III DAD need OF water for its domestic
uses.
In fact water is now being supnl;ed
through the generosity of private indi.
yiduals. These are Peter Mckinney

ranches below Salmon, and Ernest
Long Heretofore this summer during
the prevailing diminished flow from
jesse creek the ranch of w. C. Smith
d Son supplied the water deficiency.
The present plan of the city authori-
TIES is to seek authorization from the
voters for the issuance of bonds ir the
sum of $4,000 and to buy not only the
ohlth water right of seyenty-fiye
lncneS Dut also to secure the right to
Ilfteen inches Of water belonging to
Ernest Long. The Smiths are to get
$4,000 and Long $1,000 of the total
bond sale. 1t has been shown that
While seyenty-fiye inches of first-right
water would be ample for present CITY
needs 1t would be taking time by the
forelock to secure the other fifteen
inches from the Long ranch, to pro
vide as amply as possible for the
future.
County Bonds Also.
The board of county commissioners
have decided to submit the question OF
bond issue for the county for the
completion of the Salmon river high
way to the voters at the coming gen.
eral election, when separate ballot
boxes will be used for this election.
The amount of this bond issue is TO
be 100000. 1t is for the voters them
selves to determine the question when
assured of the faithful application of
the proceeds CT the sale toward the
end sought, namely the construction OF
a highway under the direct supervi-
sion of the state engineering depart
ment and at the joint expense of the
county, state and federal government
The expenditure of 100000 by the
county under this arrangement will
insure for the same purpose in connec-
ton Herewith as the initial outlay a
total of 100000 besides the expense
of the annual upkeep Of the highway
thus constructed, which would be as
sumed by the state. There should be
no question about the endorsement Of
such a good thing when sufficient-as
surances are given that there shall be
observed the required honesty in the
handling of the large sum.
