HEH FATE AT STAKE
.Dependent on Population of
Idaho Irrigated Land.
HOW TO BAR MORMONS OUT
Vast Arid Area of Southern Idaho
Will Maintain Dense Popula
tion and Control State Great
"Work at Minidoka.
MINIDOKA, Idaho, Aug-. 12. (Special.)
The State of Idaho is facing a problem
of gravest importance, almost vital In
Its bearing on the future well-being" and
development of this promising common
wealth. This problem property solved,
Idaho -will within the next decade experi
ence a boom such as It has never before
known; If It Is neglected or Ignored.
Idaho need never hope to rank amon:
the foremost states of the great West.
Every acre of agricultural land In Idaho
that has sufficient rainfall to produce
crops is today In private ownership; thou
sands of other acres are producing" crops
undr Irrigation.. But stretching acoss
the entire southern end of the state Is a
vast desert empire which can, under In
telligent irrigation, be made Its most pro
ductive area.
There Is no question that Irrigation in
this state can be made a success: this
has already been demonstrated. NThat Is
why private capital and the National Gov
ernment nre today expending: millions of
dollars In the construction of great works
which will bring water onto this desert
and provide homes for hundreds of thou
sands of people.
Fears Mormon Domination.
To get the right kind of people on this
land Is what concerns the present citizens
of this state. They realize that the popu
lation which will eventually find homes on
the Irrigated lands of Southern Idaho will
dominate the state. Therefore It Is the
almost universal desire that the new
lands shall be placed In the hands of a
thrifty. Industrious and intelligent people.
Such a citizenship will be a credit to tho
state; will materially aid in Its upbuilding,
and will be filled with that same spirit
which characterizes .the predominating
element In Idaho at the present time. J
But. If another class, a classr lacking in
ambition, a class content to eke out a
mere existence, shall rush In and take
up the newly Irrigated lands, Idaho must
pay the penalty.
To state the case frankly but briefly,
Idaho Is afraid of Mormon domination;
I afraid that the Mormons will make a gen
eral advance on tho lands soon to bo
opened to entry, and thus become the
predominant people 'of this end of the
jtate The average citizen xsi Jlaho hns
no love for the Mormon: he logics dawn
upon him. he shuns him. he almost
loathes him. Idaho has" had experience
with the Mormons; -it has -a goodly num
ber within Its limits today; it has' at
times felt their Influence politically .and
otherwise, and it has had enough. It
wants no more: It would gladly be rid of
those It already has.
How to-keep out the Mormons and
how to bring In a high class of citizens
Is the problem that Li perplexing the
foremost people of Idaho; It Is the ques
tion which means much to them .and their
state. The problem must be solved
promptly or the opportunity will slip by;
once the Mormons enter, they will never
depart. That la not their custom. Today
Idaho Is proud of its citizenship. Its aver
age citizenship; It wants no retrogres
sion, but rather an Improvement. A
great Influx of Mormons would be con
sidered a calamity to the state; to avoid
such an event, every effort Is now" being
made to induce a better, a more progres
sive and a more enlightened people to
settle the irrigated empire along the
Snake River and its tributaries.
Water nt Minidoka Next Year.
The Government. In building big recla
mation works, does not take Into consid
eration the kind of people who will enter
the lands: It Is satisfied to know that
the lands will be .taken up when water
Is turned on. Two years ago the Recla
mation Service was convinced that Irri
gation would Induce rapid settlement in
this country, and It set to work to start
a great project which will Irrigate 63.000
acres of land. Within a year. If there are
no setbacks, this great work will be com
pleted, and water will be turned Into the
big canals, possibly In time to produce
crops next Summer. This project takes
the name of Minidoka, from the town
six miles north of the great dam, the key
to the enterprise.
From an engineering- point of view, the
Minidoka project Li one of the simplest
so far undertaken by the Government. It
.Involves no storage of flood waters; no big
reservoirs with costly Impounding- dams:
no especially difficult engineering features
along Its canals. .It is a simple diver
sion project, built on -a grand scale. By
means of a simple dam which wlIL raise
the water 47 feet. It is proposed to di
vert a large part of the flow of Snake
River into two great canals, one on the
! north, the other on the south bank of
the river. The bulk of the Irrigable land
1 lies to the north, extending- 25 miles along
j Snake River, and at places 12 miles north
from the river bank. Almost as great an
J area across the river could be Irrigated
I If the water could be raised to a higher
i level, but this would Involve heavy ex-
pense. and will not be undertaken at this
the river will be Irrigated under the
gravity system.
The entire area to be reclaimed un
der the Minidoka project was Govern-
ment land when the project was adopt
ed; a great quantity has since been
homesteaded by persons who have seen
a great future for ths country, and
"by the time water Is turned on. If the
present activity continues, there will
be but little land remaining- subject to
entry. Eighty acres Is the farm unit
under the project, except on lands lying-
within a mile and a half of the
three townsltes. In those districts the
unit Is 40 acres. The towns therfl
selves are laid off into lots, and even
these lands are coins' like hot cakes,
particularly In the- town of Heyburn,
which, by reason of. Its location, has a
call on the other two.
Great Dam in Snake River.
"Work on the great diversion dam is
well under way: It is the expectation
of D. "W. Ross, the engineer In charge
of the project, that the dam will be
completed early In the coming "Winter,
at an estimated cost of $346,420. Sim
ple In design, the Minidoka dam Is be-
incr built as substantially as man can
make It. It Is known as a rock-fill
dam. built almost entirely of loose
rocits and gravel. Little masonry Is
employed in Its construction. It
stretches across Snake River, from
bank to bank, at a point where the
stream has cut Its way through solid
lava rock, to a depth of 50 feet or more.
Good foundation Is assured. In the
immediate vicinity is any amount of
lava rock suitable for use on the dam,
and not far distant is a great bed of
sand and gravel, which will be utilized
to strengthen the rockwork. To make
the dam water-tight, what is known as
a cement core Is being built across the
Tivor channel. This Is a solid cement
wall, from five to. ten feet in thickness,
built from bank to bank. The rock Is
dumped on one side of the core; sand
and gravel on the other. As the rock
Is thrown on. sand and gravel are "hy
draullccd" Into the crevices in a way
to make the structure practically as
solid as if laid In cement- When com
pleted, the dam will present tho ap
pearance of a great rock and gravel
embankment, 25 feet across Its top, but
broadening to 250 feet at the base. It
is la simple and Inexpensive structure,
but one that will hold for ages. It is a
type of dam that has been tried and
has demonstrated Its efficiency.
Method or Building: Dam.
The construction of this dam Is In
tensely interesting. Two great aerial
tramways have been erected across
Snake River. Immediately above the
spot- whero the dam Is to stand. Two
Immense wire cables have been strung
across the river from high towers on
either bank, and huge steel buckets
have been suspended from either cable,
controlled by chains from the north
bank of the river. These buckets are
loaded on the bank with huge rocks,
hoisted to the cable, and run but over
the river. At the proper point the rock
Is dropped and sinks to the bottom of
the stream. For months, by this slm.
ple means, boulders and rocks have
been deposited In Snake River, until
today quite a formidable rubblcstone
dam Is seen stretching half-way across.
the stream. Lptream from the tram
way, a temporary trestle has been con
structed across the stream. Onto this
trestle dumpcars are run. and there
they unload Into the river the sand and
gravel that Is brought down to com
plete the dam. Both tne trestle and
the tramway are to be removed when
the dam is completed; today they are
the most conspicuous, objects at the
damslte. I N
The Minidoka dam and the two
canal systems make up tho entire
project as It has been designed. This
work will cost little more than 51.500.
000, which means, that settlers will -pay
about ?2S an acre for their water. Considering-the
exceptional quality if the
soil, the splendid climate and the abun
dance of water at all seasons of the
year, this Is not excessive; It Is quite
reasonable, for; In addition to other
advantages. It must be known that
these lands are free from alkali; they
are the only lands now being reclaim
ed by the Government which will not
require drainage.
Storage Kescrvolrs for Future.
But the time Is coining when the
Snake River, will not afford ample
water for all the lands which are to be
Irrigated along Its banks, unless Its
Summer flow Is supplemented by stor
age. Immediately below the Minidoka
project Is the big Twin Falls project.
built by private capital under the Carey
act. This project has a prior right to
the water of Snake River, and the Mln
Idokrt peoplf must always let pass suf
ficient water to Irrigate every acre" un
der the Twin Falls system. As th
Twin Falls tract Is settled and the
need for water. Increases, there will bn
less and less water available for Mini
doka.
But the Government has reckoned
on this. There Is no likelihood that
there will be need for storage within
the next five years. By that time th
Government will have constructed a
system of storage works on the head
waters of Snake River amply large to
furnish all the water that will b
needed when the flow of the river Is In
sufficient to meet the demands of the
Irrigators. Small dams, costing only &
few hundred thousand dollars In the
aggregate, will be built to hold In
check the waters of Jackson Lake, Two
Ocean Lake, Emma Matilda Lake. Sho
shone and Jenny Lakes. By utilizing
these natural storage reservoirs and
Increasing their capacity with Inex
pensive dams, ample water can be oro
vlded for all the lands of tho Minidoka
project, and some will be left over for
less fortunate farmers elsewhere.
Great Advantage of Minidoka.
The farmers who come In to make their
homes' on the lands of the Minidoka pro
ject will have many advantages over those
who struggle for a living In other corners
of the "West. They will have, to begin
with, a soli which Is pronounced by ex
perts to be the equal of any In the "United
States, a soil that today. In all Its aridity,
produces sagebrush larger than that of
any other section, and It may be set
down as a safe indication that the bigger
the sagebrush, the better the soil. This
soil, being free from alkali, can be culti
vated at minimum cost, water aside. The
cost of getting water onto the land will
not be excessive; on the contrary, within
the reach of men who are willing to
work. And It should be ald In this con
nection that the estimated cost of $27 an
acre for water Includes the cost of build
ing storage works on the headwaters of
Snake River.
But Minidoka has other attractions to
offer. Itp climate cannot be surpassed
anywhere In the arid or semi-arid region.
Lacking the blistering heat of the South
ern deserts. It has not the long, severe
"Winters that retard development In some
parte of the North. But what Is of as
great advantage as all else, an advantage
not possessed by many Irrigation districts
of today, Minidoka has exceptional trans
portation facilities. Since the Govern
ment began work on the project, the Ore
gon Short Line has extended Its line from
Minidoka west and south through the
heart of the Minidoka tract, and on into
the country being reclaimed under the
Twin Falls canal. This railroad has been
laid to the city of Twin Falls and as far
as the town of Heyburn. on the Mini
doka tract, and Is ready for heavy traffic
By the time water is running In the Go
ernment canals, this road, which has
been built to stay and built for trade, will
be adequately equipped to supply local
demands In the way of freight and pas
senger traffic The railroad company has
been liberal In Its expenditures, and has
given the people of this section the best
that can be provided.
Get Right Kind of Settlers.
Considering the manifold natural advan.
tages of this country. Its soil. Its climate
and It? abundance of water, one can only
conclude that It faces a bright future If
It gets the right kind of people. There Is
the key to the situation. The future of
Southern Idaho depends entirely upon the
population that is yet to come. Those
who have come in early are the right
kind, and they are satisfied that this Is
the place to live- Many farmers who have
made fortune by irrigation in the Yak
ima Valley of "Washington, the best-paying
Irrigation district in the "United
States, have sold out and taken up new
homes here In Southern Idaho, confident
that they will make a second fortune
here. These men aro inducing their
friends to come and. If their like can
get control. he prosperity that has at
traded wide attention along the Taklma
River will be duplicated here. The land
, that Is available today can be taken
under the homestead law: none Is for
