SEAT SALE HEAVY
FOR OPERA
Four Hundred Reservations in Few
Hours for Chimes of Normandy

The seat sale for the opera, "The
Chimes of Normandy" opened at !
o'clock Monday afternoon and went
with rush. Within few hours near
ly one-half of the house had been sold.
However,, there are plenty of good
seats to be had, but no one should de-
lay in making his reservations. This
well known comic opera will be pre-
sented by the Emmett Choral union
in full costume and all the trimmings
next Wednesday, April z, in Liberty
theater.
The scene of the opera is one of the
old fashioned Norman villages of the
18th century, and the plot is one of
intrigue, scandal and romance. There
are 80 singers, with Miss Vera Shaver,
Mrs. Newcomer, W. C. Tucker, VIM.
Womack, Charles Gamage, Albert
VanDeusen and Roy Keithley in the
leading roles, and an orchestra of ten
pieces. 1t is probably the most pre-
tentious, and the best effort of En-
nett musicians and will be a treat.
The proceeds will be turned over to
the Park fund.

u. S. SEEKS TO EJECT
SQuA1TERS
Suit Filed to EnjOin Occupancy
of Bear Valley Present
Settlers.

Legal proceedings to oust between
lbs and so squatters from occupancy
of the lands in Rear Valley, which arc
q part of the Payette national forest
have been instituted by United States
District Attorney ]. L. McClear This
suit is of interest to. number of EN-
nett men who have taken land in that
valley
1t is alleged in the bill of complaint
that settlement is made and maintain7
ed under the guise of placer mining
locations, upon ground which is not
mineral in character and upon which
no mineral deposits have been dis
covered 1t is set forth that the al
legged mining locations are made upon
the best part of what is known as
Ayers meadows, and that the only ac-
tivity which has been carried on has
been to put up hay.
Mr.. McClear says that from 35 to
SO people have attempted to settle in
the valley, contrary to the regulations
of the United States forest service.
Officers of that service declare that
the land is not suited to agricultural
entry because of the fact that the al
titude is so great that killing frosts
occur in practically every month of
the year
Further objection has been made to
listing the land for agricultural pur-
poses for the reason that the valley |
makes natural reservoir site, which
at reasonable expense could be de-
veloped so that it would supply water
for irrigation of several hundred
acres of lands near Boise and Pay
.tte.
Early development of the project is
loped from funds which may be sup
,lied under the Smith-Fletcher bill,
in congress, or from the
proceeds Of the land leasing law now
n operation
The complaint asks that the mining
ocations be declared void, that the
men be enjoined from maintaining
heir residences, from cutting hay and
rom driving the stock of permittees
rom the valley by means of dogs.

ALL0T THUNDER. MT.
AREA
Applications for Grazing Per-
mits for $4,000 Head of
Sheep Approved.

Advisory boards of sheepmen re
presenting the permittees running
sheep on the Payette and Idaho Ma
tional National forests met with the
forest officers of these two forests al
this place Tuesday to assist in max
ing the final allotments of range pri-
vileges in what is known as the Thun-
der Mountain area, which area en-
bracing approximately one million
acres in central Idaho, was recently
added to the Payette and Idaho Ma
tional forests by act of congress. This
area has been subject to unrestricted
grazing and for the last few years, on
account of being the last large area of
.unreserved range of this class in the
west, has been heavily oyergrazed by
transient sheep from other parts of
the state and from other states. Un-
der the forest management only those
who have been running sheep IN that
section for the past three years will
be considered as having range pre-
ference. Applications for grazing
permits have been approved and al
lotments of range made to cover ap-
proximately $4,000 head of sheep that
have been running in that section for
the required length of time, prior to
its inclusion IN the national forest
Many other matters pertaining to
the use of this new area were con-
sidered such as opening up of trails,
of bridges, etc, necessary to
facilitate the use of the area and an
appropriation of several thousand dol
ars was voted by the sheepmen for
he purpose of building such bridges
rails, etc.
Those present were J. E. Clinton,
