Mountain Ranches
Short on Water
Range Conditions Not
Good; Streams are
Low

c. 0. Clemons returned to his home
Sunday, after a several days visit
with his son, A. E. Clemons and fami-
ly in Caldwell Mr.. Clemons has a
ranch in the hills near Idaho City and
he states that on account OF the con-
tinued drouth the hill ranchers will
practically have no hay crop this year
due to the water in the mountain
streams being so low, as nearly all
the ranchers use creek waters Tor
rrigating purposes. The stock will
also suffer greatly from the feed dry
ing up, due to lack OF rainfall in the
mountains. Mr.. Clemons recently re-
turned from Los Angeles, California
where he has been employed for the
past year. and he says the boom on
the coast is practically at a standstill,
and that the hoof and mouth epidemic
is working great hardship on the
State OF California.

fans to Pocatello from Utah and
Idaho cities
O'Hara and Myers met July Fourth

Idaho Falls and a draw decision was
rendered by the refree and judges.
Since that date both boys have I'M
proved considerably. During the Win

fcatcd. O'Hara has taken part III

CALDWELL WINS
PITCHING DUEL
Close Game Sunday Won
By Local Team from
Nampa Nine

Caldwell emerged from a thrilling
baseball game here Sunday on the
long end of 10 score over the
Nampa team Sunday and thereby
maintained its standing at the lead
Of the Valley league.
The Sunday contest was one OF
those pitching duels you read about
and so seldom see in this day Of home
runs and 400 per cent clouiers. Roy
Hoard, pitching for Caldwell, let
Nampa down with three hits, whitfield
six batters and otherwise distinguished
himself. The record of Johnson was
even more impressive. He allowed
only two safesies, and struck out Is
men.
First up in the sixth inning. Pete
Kim connected for clean double. he
rested on second base while two men
struck out and then with two strikes
on the third sticker, cssayed the THEFT
of third base. Nelson, Nampa catcher
threw into left field and Kim raced
across the pan for the only score OF
the game.
incidentally. this was one OF two
boots credited to Nampa while Cald-
well is also officially credited with
two errors. Fortunately. however
the locals boots came at time when
they were least expensive.
Earwood saved the day for Sald-
we'll in the ninth inning when the
first two hitters up connected safely.
4 force out and strike out followed
but the last Nampa batter to face
Hoard poked one on the nose INTO
left field. Earwood came in fast and
picked the drive off his shoe strings
for the third out.
The score:

P|TTMAN HURTS
FRIENDS To GET
At HIS ENEMIES
Nevada Senator P un-
ishes est, French
Says; Relief will Pass
Next Session

Tha, Senator OF Nevada punished
his friends OF the reclamation west
to get even for what his enemies ac-
complished is the explanation made
by Congressman Burton l.. French
OF Idaho in a special reclamation sit
uation interview sent The Tribune
last week end. Outlining the Wash
ington situation. Congressman French
says:
"The reclamation relief amendment
was defeated in the senate thru the
filibuster of Senator Pittman, of Ne
vada. because an item for the Spanish
Spring Irrigation project was not
agreed to by the conferees.
More than Lear tell I-regret that
Senator Pittman could not see his
way clar to permit the bill to 60 thru

This amendment was in substance

ported by the committee on arid lands
in the House and which had been put
on to deficiency bill as rider on the
senate side. Upon my motion the
house eoncurred in the senate amend
mcnt on Saturday. and it looked as
though the relief for which western
members had been fighting for set
tiers upon reclamation projects was
within our lands.
"The conferees on the deficiency
appropriation bill were no, able &c
agree on the item fcr the Sfanish

Pittman apparently thought this item
of so much importance that the whole
bill should be defeated rather than that
i, should become law.

1T is my opinion that the fact ihai
the relief measure has passed both
the senate and the house makes i
absolutely certain OF passage as soon
as the congress shall convene again
my colleagues. Addison T. Smith

MAN DIES FROM
RATTLER'S BITE
Snake Bites Man on Hand,
Poison Spreads and
Death Results

Sixteen days after he had been
bitten by rattle snake, Preston Al
fred Jewett, go, prominent sheep
ban of Salmon river, and one of the
Oldest settlers on the river, died at
his home twelve miles above Free
dom, last Thursday, from chronic
Bright's disease, aggravated by the
snake bite.
Pick Blaekberries
Jewett was picking blackberries
from a large patch in front of The
house. when he emerged from the
patch holding his arm, crying out
that he had been bitten by wasp.
His wife rushed to him and asked IL
he was certain it was not rattle
snake that had stung him. Jewett
replied that he was positive it had
been a wasp that inflicted the wound.
Mrs. Jewett walked to the bush
from which her husband had been
picking berries and discovered large
RATHER at the base of the bush, coil
ed ready to strike again.
Poison Spreads
Jewett sucked poison from the
wound however. and his mouth be
came infected from the poison. lie
refused to have Il tourniquet bound
above the wound, and as result,
the poison spread rapidly TO the
blood.
Returning home, Mr.. Jewetts con-
dition became worse and a physician
was summoned, who, defined the bite
as one of the character received from
n snake. Jewett, TO the day of his
DEATH however, declared that he had
not been bitten by a snake, but by a
wasp. The bite was made between
the first and second fingers, on the
right hand. Two deep fang marks
and a light scratch lay close to-
gether.
During the summer months, when
the rattlesnake is shedding its skin,
a period of two weeks exists when
the snake is blinded and VIII never
issue its customary warning before
striking. 1t is believed that Jewett
was attracted by wasp and that the
snake, in the act OF shedding, struck
without warning.
