Check, Which Probably Assisted i'm
Securing Revolutionary Plans.
New York, Jan. 27.-What is be.

Gen. Benedict Arnold's staff officers
whenever they unlocked official doc
ments, is one OF the revolutionary
relics acquired by the Field Explore
ton Committee Of the New York

The key check probably assisted
the traitorous Arnold the night he

was found in the ruins Of an old
house in Brooklyn, and with it were
about two dozen copper coins OF the

British held the city. "a

NOTHING WRONG
WITH PAVEMENT
"Hot Stuff" Too Rich on
Kimball to Sprinkle
Now.

Paving on Kimball avenue which
this year has occasioned considerable
apprehension among property owners
on that street, has nothing wrong with
it. On the contrary, it is just little
better than the rest of the recent paw
ing put in by the Warren Construction
company.
This fact was brought to light at the
city council meeting Monday evening
when. the question came up. AS a re-
suit of the fact that the street has not
been sprinkled this summer. Surfac-
ing on Kimbal1 avenue, according to a
report made by Fred Mcconnell, city
engineer, was the last laid. In mixing
the "hot stuff" the contracting COM
pany used remaining materials and
the mixture was over rich. Instead oil
sprinkling the pavement, sand is being
used this summer to work into the
asphalt. This treatment may be con
tinued over another summer before
the surface will be strong enough te
stand the traffic demands made upor
it during hot weather.
An ordinance creating sewer dis
trict was passed for the first tirn'
Monday evening almost Simultaneous,
with the presentation of a petition ask
ing for a sewer between Denver ant
Elgin streets from Second to -Four
teenth.
Il William Bills representing the Con
ltinental Oil company, asked the coun
Gil to remove the fire hydrant from i
| front of the service station now build
, ing on Kimball and Blaine streets
/. Mr.. Bills also asked permission t
/ construct diagonal driveway to tn
. service station. Both matters wer
taken under advisement.

Water Tangle Has
Only One Solution.
City Must Provide Own
bitches to Irrigate
Memorial Park.

Difficulties that have been exper-
fenced this summer in providing wat
er for Memorial park were explained
to the city council Monday evening
when letter from Fred Evans, sec
rotary of the Pioneer Irrigation dis
trict, in response to a resolution of
enquiry passed recently by the coun-
Gil, was read. Mr.. Evans explained
that the Pioneer Irrigation district
was not required to provide water at
the park for irrigation because the
park was assessed on an acreage basis
and not as ordinary city property is
assessed by the district for water. In
lieu of this fact, Mr.. Evans pointed
out, it is not necessary for the irriga-
ton district to deliver water to point
closer than half mile to the park.
MIR. Evans informed the council
that water was available at Ninth ant
Everett street. Under the circumstan
ces, it is necessary that the city builc
its own delivery ditch. A flow o
~ inches is also always available a
the park from the Kimball avenu,
ditch, Mr.. Evans pointed out, and thi
stream might be increased to almos
any reasonable amount at night whel
city users do not use il.
Irrigation water for the park has beer
problem all summer owing to tn
fact that the ditch from which sup
ply was normally obtained was file
up this summer by private partie
r when the Pioneer Irrigation distric
disowned it. Whether any further &C
/ ton will be taken has not been deter
mined by city officials.

Plenty of Water
For Head Lettuce
Project Manager believes
Crop Will Not Suffer

Plenty of water for head lettuce"
was the cheering message brought to
Caldwell Thursday morning by ]. B.
Bond, Boise project manager. Mr..
Bond accompanied F. E. Weymouth,
chief engineer, and A. P. Davis, direct
or of reclamation, on a trip over the
project Thursday to study at first hand
the drainage problem.
81 understand that there will be
about 1900 acres of head lettuce on
project lands this fall" Mr.. Bond said.
eff that be true and the project uses
water about as it did last year, can
see no possible reason why we should
not have sufficient water for this crop.
Certainly l should not advise farm
er to refrain from planting head let
tuce this year for this reason alone"
Asked concerning progress on the
Black Canyon, Mr.. Bond asserted that
men and materials were being rapidly
modified at the damsite above EN-
NETT and that construction work
would be undertaken shortly. Mr.
Bond is engineer directing this work.

TWO MEN HURT
BY IS FOOT FALL
Carpenters, at Work
Near Parma, Injured
In Accident.

Martin Ross and George Hackett,
employed by William Nc
Coy. contractor, erecting a barn near
Parma, were seriously injured Tues
day when a scaffolding IS feet high
from which they were working sud
denly crashed from beneath them.
Ross sustained complex and unu-
sually severe fracture of the right
ankle that required two solid hours
of surgical labor for setting and that
may leave him crippled for life. A
heavy beam. falling from the rooi
of the building, struck the ankle end
on with terrific force and literally
crashed the ankle bones into bits.
Hackett struck upon short upright
post at the end of his fall. He was il
sitting posture when he came into
contact with the post and the impac
drove the stick almost a foot into thu
abdominal cavity.
Both men were rushed to the Cald
well Sanatarium and DIR. F. NJ Col
Immediately gave them medical atten
ton. Wednesday both were reporte'
to be resting easy.

Big Real Estate Sale
Concluded this Week.

One of the largest and most import
ant realty deals negotiated in Cald-
well this year came to definite head
Tuesday with the announcement that
Cakes Brothers had purchased the
Thomas building, now occupied by the
Levy grocery. Cakes Bros. expect to
enlarge their floor space by using
this building but it is understood that
this change will not be made for sew
eral months, probably not until next
year. In the meanwhile Mr.. Levy
will continue his business. Steady de.
velopment of the Cakes department
store business led to demands for
more room and this sale made thru
R. S. Madden, insures the company
an outlet for future expansion.

PRIMARY ISSUE
BEFORE COUNTY
Center of Republican
Interest at Tuesdays
Convention.

On paper, the Republican county
convention, to be held at the city hall
next Tuesday afternoon, is anti-pri-
mary. But primary advocates, en-
Unused by the report that the Ada
county convention will be almost
solidly for the primary proposal, are
almost certain to ardently back their
support of the primary as an essential
part of the Republican campaign cry
this fall. However, every indication
points to growing disgust with the
primary system as result of recen,
experiences in Canyon county and il
is not believed that primary adherent.
will make marked Roadway in theil
fight.
The Republican county central com
mittee, as required by statute, will
meet Saturday shortly after noon a
the city hall. Selection of count,
chairman to succeed Frank Breshear
who has left the county is the mos
important singlepiece of business be
fore the central committee.
Thus far there has been little mark
ed effort on the part of local Repub
licans to attend the state convention
week later than the county convention
meeting time. A recent ruling by Ro
L. Black, attorney general, make it cel
tain that those who go will have thei
railroad fare refunded. The Republ
can convention is to be held at Wa
lace, the Democratic state conventio
at Haley.
Canyon county Democrats will prof.
ably hold their county convention :
the court house. No informatio
could be obtained Thursday as to tn
place of Progressive meeting. A
three county conventions are to b
held here next Tuesday.

NAMPA,-St seems far cry back

alone. They ranged all the way from
vehicles of the ancient vintage of
1900 down to quite smart looking rigs
of comparative recent origin.

in Nampa for nearly year and half,
but the demand exists just the same,
