created, but the Rev. gentleman estab-
lished to the satisfaction of the court
that he had beeu authorized to take the
tomatoes at one cent pound, which he
rendered to Miller. The tomatoes in
vOlved amounted to 81, and judgment
against Fowler to that amount was
given but the costs were charged up to

For the past two or three years the
cities and towns in Latah county have
experienced what is commonly termed
SNAP" The county assessor and tax
collector every year assessed and col
lected the city taxes at the county's ex-
pense, without turning into the county
treasury anything to pay for the labor.
1t is true ex-Assessor Fairburn
charged the city percentage, but he
put it into his pocket and failed to
make an accounting to the county.
The board of commissioners have
concluded that the county cannot af-
ford to collect and turn over to the cit
les their tax moneys and receive nothing
for doing so. Therefore, the county
will hold or 6 per cent. of the city tax
until the matter is settled in court.
