Road Overseers.

Grangeville, Ida, May 20, 1900.
To the Road Overseers Of Idaho
County, and to whom it may
concern:
1t has come to my attention,
that in some localities the Impress
ion prevails that the road poll tax,
as provided for by section $50 Of
the revised statutes of Idaho,
to-wit; two days work upon the
public roads by every male inhab-
liant of road district, not exempt
or in lieu thereof, the Communication
fee in money, AZ provided by law,
has been declared unconstitutional
and void, by q recent decision Of
his honor, Judge Steele, judge of
the district court, in the matter of
the appeal from the order of the
board Of the county commissioners,
levying taxes for the year 1899.
This is not the case; that decis-
ion in no manner affected said
road poll tax, nor involved that
question. It is the duty of all
road overseers to collect the road
tax above referred to, as the law
authorizing the same is in full
force and effect, and failure to
collect it will be q breach of the
official duty Of every road overseer
SO failing. Respectfully,
w. N. SCALES,
County Attorney.
I have read the foregoing opin-
ion Of w. N. Scales, Esq, county
attorney, and it is correct
Interpretation Of my decision in
the tar levy case referred to; said
decision in no manner affected the
general road poll tax, and in no
manner affected the duties Of road
overseer in collecting the road poll
tax provided for in section $50 OF
the revised statutes of Idaho.

OIL NEWS.

The oil fields in Monroe county have
almost ceased operation on account of
the water irouth and lack of coal to
fire the boilers. At present over one
hundred derrieks, all completed, are
standing idle. Some of these wells have
done some drilling, but have had to
cease operations On account of lack OF
water. A prominent oil man stated
yesterday that fuel was becoming quite
a factor in the field and would increase
the cost CT development The only rail-
road leading to this section is the B. z.
&C, a narrow guage road. This road
hauls all the coal as we'll as supplies.
The oil man stated that he had one
we'll going down. that the coal was
costing him twenty-six cents per bush
ell and that it required a team over a
day to haul the coal from the railroad
track to the well. This is certainly a
high price to pay for coal, but there is
no other resource.
There are several oil men still hold
ing several thousand acres of territory
in Belmont county. but it is doubtful if
it will ever be developed.

A BAD FAILURE.
Liabilities a Million and Assets Moth



ing mt All.
NEW YORK, November 1S-Franeis
D. Carley, a well known Wall street
broker, who lives at Orange, n. j..
made announcement to-day at Newark
that late on Saturday he had filed in
the United States District Court at
Trenton petition in bankruptcy. The
petition declares the liabilities to be
more than million and the assets
nothing.
The claims against Mr.. CaEley, he
says, are the result of venture in the
South several years ago in which he
lost $780, 600. While Mr. Carley was
abroad recently, one of the clerks ac-
quainted some of the judgment cred
itors with the fact that about 100000
had been placed with certain brokers
for investment Believing that to be
Mr.. Carley's own money these creditors
began to force payment of the judg
ments, placed attachments on the mon
ey and as a result, he concluded to take
advantage OF the bankruptcy laws in
the interest of all his creditors.
Mr.. Carley is siNty-one years old and
an Ohioan by birth. In 1865 he moved
to Louisville. Here his active career as
a financier began when he became affil-
lated with the Standard Oil Company
as president of its southern branch. and
for many years he was an important
factor in that corporation. In 1890,
Mr.. Carley came to New York and at
once took prominent place in financial
circles.
Mr.. Carley, in an interview. blames
certain Wall street men for forcing him
in financial matters, and says he will
soon make an exposure. His petition
in bankruptcy has been referred to
Commissioner f. w, Leonard. of Tren-
ton.
