In the Matter of Organizing of Drain
age District.
TO the Honorable Judge of the Above
Court
The undersigned the owners of the
number of acres of land in the pro-
posed drainage district hereinafter
described set opposite their respective
names respectfully petition and show
the court as follows:
l. That all of the lands of the pro
posed district hereinafter described
are located in Boundary County, Ida
no, and that your petitioners are the
owners of the number of acres in said
district set opposite their respective
names
q That the object of the organiza-
tion of the district petitioned for
herein, is to drain and reclaim the
lands in said district and that the
establishment OF such drainage dis
trict and proposed system of drainage
will be conducive to public health
convenience and welfare of the citi-
zens of the State of Idaho and partic-
ularly those residing in said pro
posed district and in the vicinity
thereof and will increase the public
revenue of the State of Idaho.
3. That portion of said lands en-
braced in said district are during the
entire year entirely covered by water
and the remaining portion thereof is
covered during a large portion of the
year with water, and are during the
remainder of the year Doggy and wet
TO the extent that such condition tends
to impair the health of the residents
residing in the vicinity and to inter
fere with the travel and welfare Of
such persons, and by reclamation of
said lands they will become highly
productive, whereas at present there
is but little which can be realized
therefrom by any use to which they
are adapted, and by such reclamation
said lands will become highly valu-
able and the revenue from taxation to
the State of Idaho will be greatly in
creased. That your petitioners have
carefully Investigated the possibilities
of such drainage district and the plan
proposed is a proper and advantage
eous method of accomplishing the re-
lief sought.

braced in said proposed district is
4285 acres, of which your petitioners
own in excess of one-fifth thereof.
