HEAVY SNOWFALL All OVER THE
NORTHWEST; WORST OF STORM
APPARENTLY IS NOW OVER
During the four-day period ending at
C a. m. today the following amounts of
precipitation have occurred at north
western points:
Seattle .
Portland .
Spokane .
Lewiston ....
Walla Walla .
Baker .
Boise .
.2.64 Inches
.3.82 inches
.0.42 inches
.1.66 inches
. 2.Ô2 inches
.1.38 inches
.2.07 inches
.0.64 inches
Pocatello
Most of the precipitation occurred as
snow or frozen rain, or, as in the case
of Portland, as rain which froze as it
fell.
While the worst of the storm is np
as still fall
parently over, light snow
ing this morning from northern Nevada
to British Columbia, and the weather
in western Oregon and Washington
was cloudy and threatening, while rain
was reported from every reporting sta
tion in California except San Diego.
The barometer is rather low over most
of the Pacitic slope, and the official
forecast calls for more rain and snow.
At noon the temperature had risen to
38 degrees, which is the highest tem
perature experienced here since January
25, and a brisk southeast wind was
melting the snow rapidly. While the
weather bureau docs not expect any
further decided rise in temperature,
there is no immediate prospect of a
change to colder, and bureau officials
declare such precautions as are possible!
should be taken to take care of the
water from the melting snow.
Clearing the Streets.
The work of clearing the business
section of Boise of snow still c
tinues with clock-like precision, day
and night, under the management of
the street department. Most of
gutters have been opened to carry off
water and a great amount of snow
has been moved from the streets and
alleys. Councilman Finegan
worked his men at the limit where
water backs up and floods basements
when an exceptional amount comes
down and lias most of those points
cleared. For two days and two nights
there has been no let-up in moving
snow. As one gang laid down the
shovels after a day's w r ork, another
picked them up for the night shift
and the big force will continue work
ing tonight. While the snow is melt
ing rapidly today, and indications are
that the weather will not get colder, so
much snow has been hauled from the
business section that the city forces
will be aide to cope with an average
amount of water and heavy floods
are not expected unless a sudden]
change comes.

MAN WHO TRAILED ROOSEVELT
TOR REPUBLICANS IN 1912 IS
OUT FOR THE COLONEL
One of the bitterest opponents of I
Theodore Roosevelt in the campaign
of 1 n 12 when, under the auspices of
the Republican national organization
and in company with J. Adam Bede, \
he trailed the Progressive party candi- I
date for president from, as ho admits, 1
Vermont to California, mimicking and i
ridiculing him to the delight then of |
completely toward the gentleman from
Oyster Bay. He Is now out with a
statement to the Republicans of 1111
nois declaring he proposes to run at
the April primary In that state for
delegate to the Republican national
conventlon declaring most positively
he will work and vote for the nomina
tion of Roosevelt.
—— , . _ ,
When Harlan appeared in Boise
during the campaign of 1912 shortly
following the appearance of Colonel
Roosevelt here, he was greeted with
open arms by the reactionary element
of the Republican party who lauded
his attack and ridicule of the cx-prcsi-.
dent. But politics make strange bed
fellows. Almost four years have.
passed since that* campaign. Today
Harlan is as ardent a Roosevelt man
ras his enemy then. His state
ment to the Republicans of his home
state, copies of which were forwarded'
to Boise for release, is as follows:
"To the Republican, of Illinois:
''I propose to run at the April pri
»nary for delegate the Republican
national convention and, if successful,
I shall work.and vot- for thc nomina
lion of Theoflore Roosevelt as the Rc

good work and made walking much

Street car service in the city was
i maintained with regularity yesterday,
The tracks of the interurban lines con
necting Nampa, Caldwell and Boise
were cleared sufficiently to install reg
ular service last night and today have
been running nearly on schedule time.
The demand for snow shovelers fell
off materially today, although there
were a few calls for men to clean
roofs in the residence district. Pre
dictions are that the storm has broken
and i.id-timers who believe in the

REFORHS URGED
BY THE ENGINEERS
Important Discussions at
Meeting of Those Inter
ested in Irrigation.
That the state engineer should em
ploy permanently water masters on
all important drainage areas, instead
of just during a few months in the
summer; that the state engineer should
have entire discretion in the granting
of water permits and that the state
should co-operate with the federal gov
ernment through the United Sfates
geological survey in securing data on
the flow of streams, were three im
portant matters acted favorably upon
this morning at the Boise maintenance
and operative conference of engineers
and managers of various irrigation
projects.
The attendance numbered 50 this
morning and It was the sense of the
meeting that committees be appoint
ed to try and secure favorable action
upon all of the matters discussed.
Address by Water Master.
Most of the morning was taken up
with the address of A. V. Tallman,
watermaster in charge of the Boise
river. His address was of great in
terest and tended to show Just what
watermasters could accomplish by be
ing on the job early and late and
looking after the equal distribution of
water. He explained that while last
summer the water flow of the Boise
river was the lowest in its history,
still the water distribution was han
dled with less complaint than in for
mer years when there was much more
water in the river. The address showed
that Mr. Tallman had given much
study to irrigation problems, knew
the duty of water for various crops
and was in a position to wisely di
rect its use.
Address by Game Warden.

HERE'S THE STORY
A Word About
WELWORTH
BLOUSES
$ 2.00
—We could use a whole page to good advantage to tell you ALL about
"Wirthmore" and "Welworth" because they are something different in
waists at $1 and $2.
—You'll find it hard to figure out how such waists as these can be sold
for $1.
—Here's how :—
—The manufacturer has contracted with one large store in nearly every
city in the United States to take a certain quantity of these waists
EVERY WEEK. In Boise, it's The Mode.
—This means that he can buy his materials MORE intelligently and
MORE economically—lie can keep his shops running at FULL SPEED
ALL THE TIME and he eliminates ALL the heavy selling expense
which other manufacturers contend with.
at
—Welworth Blouses come from
the same manufacturer who makes
Wirthmore Waists. The same
scientific plan of making and sell
ing is used for both. It is fitting,
therefore, that this FIRST an
nouncement of new Welworth
Blouses for Spring should be
made during this FIRST demon
stration day—Saturday.
Welwort'n's of Crepe de Chine
at $2.
—You'll find a surprise in store
for you when you see these hand
some crepe de chine blouses at $2.
You'll be likewise pleased with
the Welworths of wash silks and
lingerie weaves too. Just plan to
visit The Mode Bargain Square
Saturday, that's all.
-—ALL THESE SAVINGS which the manufacturer makes ARE SAV
INGS FOR YO'U.
Now we don't claim to be offering yon a $1.50 waist
for $1, but we do claim that they are better waists than we have ever
seen sold at $1 and $2 before.
—You'll always find a great range of styles to choose from—some of them
made nearly plain—others very exquisitely trimmed with laces and em
broideries. Remember a NEW lot of Wirthmore and Welworth Waists
and Blouses arrives every week. Several styles will be shown for the
first time Saturday, on the BARGAIN SQUARE.
