PLEDGES FUNDS
F Or DR. A IMAGE
Davis Ayers Money Is
Forthcoming if Dis
trict Carries.

That funds will be available on the
Boise project in the event an irri-
CATION district is approved Saturday
by project farmers is the basis OF this
statement received Thursday by the
Project Improvement club foster
ing the district, from A. P. Davis, di-
rector of reclamation
In our experience we have found
that an irrigation district is one of the
best organizations to deal with. We
have had no difficulty where they
have organized an irrigation district in
entering nto contract with the Gov
eminent because they are a respon-
siible organization and contract I'm
der these conditions would insure to
the government the repayment of the
cost.
We are right in the consideration of
the estimates for the appropriations to
be made by the next session OF Con-
gress. They should be completed be-
fore the end of this month. These
estimates will be passed on to the Sec
Rotary of the Interior to review and
then on Ito Congress and they will
make up the lists the first meeting in
December. This is the regular course
for all appropriations. Am appropria-
ton might be made for the drainage
work in the Boise Valley in the appro-
priations that are now being consid-
cred and to be passed ON by Congress
at the first meeting in December,
which would make the money avail
able the first of next July. Or6nar
lily the appropriation would go until
the first of next July, but | am sure
that If a Recommendation is made
Congress will do what is right and the
money can be obtained possibly in the
early spring Of next year, probably
by the first OF March. The govern
ment has promised ITO expend $780,
900 for drainage work as soon as the
organization of a district can be OBJ
tanned and money can be made avail
able or appropriated.

LAUNCH FIGHT
FOR LOW RATES
Southern Idaho Associa-
ton to be Perfected
Today.

Organization of a southern Idaho
rate association will be perfected in
Pocatello today to assist Senator
Frank Gooding is his avowed inten-
tion to fight for substantial reductions
DIN freight rates for Idaho farm pro-
ducts. W. H. Roadway, representing
the Caldwell Commercial club, left
Thursday evening for Pocatello, as
Canyon county's delegate at the or
ganization convention.
Other southwestern Idaho counties,
all included in the same rate district,
will be represented at Pocatello. Del
egates from Weiser, representing
Washington county, from Payette for
Payette county and from Boise for
Ada county are in Pocatello for the
conferences there today.
Senator Gooding is the leader in
this fight. 1t was at his suggestion
that an effective organization be made
to cooperate in Idaho by providing
such aid as may be required from
this state. In speaking of his pro-
posal to actively enter the fight for
lower rates, Mr.. Gooding said on the
eve of his return to Washington:
The people of the state must or
ganize. They must forget their little
local disagreements and all get to-
gether in one solid body if they desire
to save this state from ever increas-
ing freight rates. When l return to
Washington | intend to write every
chamber of commerce in the state
urging them to aid in this fight.
Idaho is at the peak no matter
which way you go SO far as the Ore
gon Short Line and the Union Pa
cific railroad is concerned. They are
attempting and so far have been sue
cessful in preventing this state from
shipping their products to the Pacific
coast 4pd thus using the Panama can
al
Il intend to present a bill for a
dong and short haul basis Since my
return to this state from congress
have been busy organizing several
parts of the state for the purpose of
combating these high freight rates.
"The business men of the state must
get behind the farmers in this state
to accomplish this organization and
the reduction of freight rates. They
must not expect ito stick out their
| shingles and take the money from the
farmer without aiding him in getting
better prices for his product. They
must get behind him ST they expect
to continue in business and have the
state progress as it would.
Records show surprising increase
in the number of mortgages on farms,
and it is all caused by the ever increas,
ing rates. The farmers and this state
are going bankrupt unless something
is done"

election returns. The entire Progress

ated when, upon the first count in the
morning, it was believed Miss Marg-
aret Knowlton, present incumbent and
Democratic candidate to succeed her
self as county school superintendent,
had beaten Mrs. r. I. Tatum, her OPP
ponent, by three votes. In the after
noon, however, this result was found
to be inaccurate and Mrs. Tatum was
elected by a plurality of seven votes
This was by far the most closely con-
tested place on the entire county ticket,
The final count showed that Miss
knowlton had polled 34lo votes and
that Mrs. Tatum had j423 votes,
II. F. Samuels, candidate for gov
crnor. led the Progressive ticket in this
county with total of 4S4S votes. For
county office, Henry Beck of Cald-
well, newly elected commissioner, re-
ceived the highest vote. a total Of I+l3
ballots having been east for him.
Miss Knowlton received the highest
number of votes cast for any Demo-
crat while the largest number for any
Republican, 33+4, went to Mrs. Fern

b0RAH REFUSES
TO TAKE STAND
Is Still on Fence In
Irrigation District
Controversy.

Senator Borah, according to a
telegram from the senior senator, is
non-commital on the proposal to
form an irrigation district on Boisee
project lands to supplant the Payette-
Boise Water Users association. As
sertions have been freely circulated
over the project that Senator Borah
has taken definite stand in the con-
troversy but this telegram seems to
indicate that he will take no part in
the prediction campaign. Advo-
Gates of the association have felt that
Senator Borah favored the retention
of the present form Of organization
while district boosters have inclined
to the belief that his opinion favored
the district
This telegram indicates that he has
no desire to enter the controversy:
returned to Washington with
view of having a definite under
standing if possible with the sec
rotary of the interior relative to
the policy of the department
touching irrigation districts and
certain construction of the law.
I felt should have this before
could arrive at an intelligent con-
clusion as to what l could advise,
if at all. / do not feel that | can
safely advise in the matter until
that understanding is had. l am
unwilling to take the responsible
ity of saying what the department
will do with reference to certain
important matters and what their
attitude will be, as upon their at
titude depends entirely my views
to the district. But l find Secre-
tary Fall will not be here until the
Goth. What is the date of the
election?

berd was in every way a grand sue

of that kind that has ever been
tried in this city. 1t was quite an
improvement over last years tour
nament and much originality in
methods Of pitching and ability was
shown. 1t was especially interest
ing to know that the size of the
player was not the main point, as
some very small players showed
much skill i'll the game. Ring
throwing was one Of the biggest
features of the game, and five
points were given for each ringer.

teams Mayed in pairs of three, and
