LETTE» OF INSTRUCTION ; To the holders o! the dry !^od on the N'jrth S;de Payette-Boise prônée., and to the public: It u oDcec-essary to inform ycra *:th reference to the conditions ex iit.ng during the last four to sever years on our side of this project, but merely z-k you to consider whether fish to continue conditions or not yoa as they have been for anther period of five years or more. If not, you have an opportunity for a change. The convention of five delegates from each district met in convention at Caldwell, Idaho, on August 12th, 1ÎK». Thoroughly investigated and considered every proposition known to them, with the means at hand, both pro and con, finally arriving at a unanimous conclusion that the best and most feasible proposition before our people, and the best means at hand for protecting the rights of the, people, as well as to obtain water on our lands within a reasonable time, is to organize an Irrigation District. Forthwith, a committee consisting of the chairman and secretary of the convention and one representative selected by the delegates from each of the ten districts, was selected with full power and instructed to organize an irrigation district embracing the North Side Payette-Boise lands. In accordance, therewith, said com mittee immediately after adjournment of the convention, organized, selected a treasurer, ordered said treasurer to give bonds, also placed the chairman and secretary under bonds, selected two bonded depositories for the safe guarding of any necessary funds to be collected and disbursed by Bald com mittee in perfecting an Irrigation dis trict. For organization purposes the dis trict will be called the Black Canyon Irrigation District. The plan will be to take over, if pogsible, and to follow as nearly as it may be found feasible, the surveys and plans of the United States Reclamation Service. A chief engineer and coun sel have been employed to direct the work of organization and prepare plans so that actual construction may begin at the earliest possible moment on whatever plan may be found most feasible. As to whether we construct the works ourselves or contract with some outside firm, is a matter to be decided after the completing our organization. Water filings in the names of the members of the old executive commit tee have been made for the purpose of both irrigation and power for our use in making this organization. We are now ready to proceed with the organization work, and #111 have men In the field collecting necessary data at once. Engineering crews will be ready to start in the fields as soon as competent men can be equipped. In order to get the services of the necessary engineers and receive nec essary rights and otherwise defray the nocessary expenses, it is of course necessary to have funds; therefor« your committee by due authority ha* levied an assessment of ten cents p«r acre on all land to come within the ; boundaries of this project. The com mittee are not on any salary bat vol unteer their services, therefore, they request each entryman to assist them in the collection of this levy. The quicker the funds are available the sooner we will be in a position to contract for water upon the lands. Please consider, as it is worth ten cents an acre to you to have this or ganization completed at once. Miss imogene Madden, of Caldwell, Idaho, has been appointed fiscal agent for the committee. Please pay your assess ments to her or to authorized deputies who may call upon you. Be sure to obtain a receipt for the amount you pay, also be prepared to give at the same time a complete description of your land. If you are a homesteader bring your receiver's receipt; all in formation thereon Is necessary and will assist in accomplishing the de sired end without the least possible deiay. WALTER R.

WOMAN'S LOGIC. "My opponent's argument," said Senator Dolliver in a recent campaign "has about as much logic—Did you ever hear about the young woman in Ft. Dodge? One spring morning she sat on the piazza of her pretty little home sewing a button on her hus band's coat. The husband himself ap peared and she said fretfully, "If s a perfect shame the way the tailor sewed this button on. This is the fifth time I've had to sew it on again for you.—Everybody's Magazine.
