ASK CALIFORNIA
To HELP BUILD

New Cutoff will be Bene-
fit to State and Should
Have Support, is Ap-
peal.

Cooperation OF the Los Angeles
and San Francisco Chambers OF Com
merce in presenting the Oregon case
before the interstate commerce COM
mission for the construction OF new
road from Crane to Odell Junction
was sought Monday by the Caldwell
Commercial club. Letters. detailing
the pan, were written by X. T. HURT.
Commercial club secretary. Monday.
That the proposed extension and
cutoff is OF mutual benefit to Idaho.
Oregon and California is the point
made by Mr. Hurtt in seeking Cali
fornia help to present 4 strong case
before the commission. That this ter
ritory is the logical bread basket for
California is pointed out in the appeal.
which says;
"Your rapidly increasing popula-
ton must be supplied from some other
source than California producers. We
have great quantities OF farm pro-
duce and cattle, hogs and sheep to ex-
port"
On the other hand, the letter points
out that California manufacturing
firms will find 4 fertile field for their
products in this territory providing
a direct route and a reasonable rate
can open thi sregion to California con.
Germs.
Emphasizing the traffic that the pro-
posed cutoff could originate on its own
line. Mr.. Hurtt says;
"The contention Of the Union Pa
cihc is that the extension OF tins
branch'-Ontario to Crane-would
not pay enough income to justify
building it. There are twenty billion
feet of lumber east OF the Cascades
in Oregon that can come out over this
new road. Cutting one million feet
per day would mean that this timber
would last 90 years and it would take
so cars per day to handle this million
feet of lumber. As the average freight
on a car OF lumber to Missouri river
points is $500. it would mean S23,OOC
per day freight revenue from lumber
alone.
"As soon as the data can be gath
cred. we will senr you the number o
carlots shipments OF each commodit,
as they originate in this valley. "
course it will not all go to California
points but great deal OF it would Il
we had quicker and cheaper trans
portation.'

COLLEGE GIRLS
SCORE IN PLAY
"Abbu San of Old Japan"
Delights Large
Audience

The Y. w. c. \. OF the College
OF Idaho presented the play. "Abbu
San OF Old Japan" Wednesday even
ing at the Sterry hall. The cast under
the direction OF Mrs Scauerday, had
been working diligently for some
time and the production was the re-
suit OF their effort.
The play gave the townspcople a
chance to see something both artistic
and unusual in college plays. As
the name implies. the story took place
in "the land of chrysanthemums". Il
was distinctly Japanese in the setting
and Characterization; even the manner
OF shifting the scenes was oriental
The beauty OF costumes and scenery
received much favorable comment
and was said to be unequalled by
any previous college play.
The story of the Play
Because Abbu San. only daughter
of the Emperor of Japan permitted
Baron Ito to dance with her at the
royal ball. Mist OF the Evening, his
fiancee. a distant relative OF the little
princess. was enraged. The next day
il was announced that the taron had
forsaken Mist OF the Evening. The
little princess made things interesting
for the court and for Mist OF the Even
ing. when she innocently announced
that she would soon be betrothed, but
she refused to say to whom. The
cour, naturally concluded that the
baron had foresaken Mist of the Even
inc in favor OF the little princess.
Abbu San intended to witness the
annual chrysanthemum fete in the hill
country. so the furious Mist OF the
Evening. assisted by her mother
planned to have her kidnapped. But
because Mist OF the Evening dressed
herself in court garments, and Ahbu
San. wishing to pass as a peasant IN
the celebration. donned more humble
apparel. The abductor was confused
She Kidnapped Mist OF the Evening
by mistake. instead OF Abbu San.
In the meantime. the duchess
learned that the baron was still iaith'
full to her daughter. so she rushed tc
the hill country to save Abbu sar
from her fate She was terribly strick'
en- upon discovering that her owl
daughter was the victim OF her plot
OF course. Mist OF the Evening was
rescued. court rumors satisfactorily
Quilted. and all ended happily.
