COURT NOTES.

BOISE, luanO, Dec. lO.-lhe
Supreme Court today handed
down one OF the most far-reach-
ing opinions in the history of the
state. The court decides that all
patented mining property is sub
ject to taxation. Up to this time
it has been exempt. Chief JUS
tice Huston and Justice Quarrels
rendered the majority opinion.
Justice Sullivan dissenting. The
decision will materially increase
the taxable property of the
state What effect it will have
on outside investors is problem
atical.
The case is entitled o. ]. Sails
bury of Salt Lake VS.. Carl Lane,
Assessor of Custer county. Dis
trict Judge Stockslager decided
that patented mines were exempt
from taxation. The supreme
court reverses the decision on all
points.
In its decision, the court says /:
$50 long as the title remains
in the government, mining
Claims" like any other claim to
land, are not the subject of local
taxation, but when they cease to
be property of the United States.
when the fee has passed from
+h0 TIpi+a1 Cto+0c fo tba o;4i1o,,
then they are, as all other prop
erty of the citizen is, subject to
taxation, unless exempted by
positive and unequivocal law.
lit is objected that many pat
ented mines are non-productive,
so also is much other property il
the state, but the law provides,
Sec. 1, Laws 1899. p. 2l5. 'tAll
property must be assessed at its
full cash value" If A. owns 16(
acres of land, all of which i:
under improvement, and from
which he is receiving a large
yearly revenue, it is not presum
able, that B. who owns 160 acre:
of sage brush land adjoining him
none or but very small part O
which is under improvement ant
from which B. is receiving M
frevenue whatever, will be assess
ed at the same value as that O
| A. And it is presumable that ;
like rule will be obtained in re
gard to mines. certainly if regar'
is had to the law"
Justice Sullivan. in dissenting
holds that there is no difference
in the contemplation of the rev
enue laws between mining claims
and patented mines.
The case in which this decision
has been rendered grew out o
the assessment by the Assesso
of Custer county of certain pat
ented mining property belonging
to Mr.. Salisbury. The Assesso
was proceeding to sell the prop
erty for taxes when Mr.. Sails
bury paid them under protest
and then brought suit for recoy
cry. The case was submitted o.
an agreed statement of facts.
AS this is a very important de
cision to Custer county and Ida
! ho, we hope to publish it in flu
. in our next issue.

McNamee and Barker War.

Suit was begun in the circuit court at
Pensacola Tuesday against Robt. McNa-
NEE who went to Pensacola TO speak in
the interest of removing the capital to
Jacksonville, by L. b. Barker, for $500,
amount alleged to he due Barker for sal
airy while editor of the Daily Evening
News, Jacksonville, which paper has
since ceased publication. This action
was taken against McNamee after he had
arrived at Pensacola, and notice was
served on him Tuesday. McNamee, who
is an ardent supporter Of organized labor,
publishes over his signature statement
which places Barker in no bright light,
and says the action is malicious one on
Bankers side. The statement was
printed in a morning daily. In the
Daily Press Barker retracted.

Landed on a Mans Back.

That John Mcdonald is not dead is no
fault of an accident which happened to
him at Jacksonville, but is due rather to
divine intervention than anything else.
Mcdonald fell a distance of fifty feet,
through a glass skylight, and on the
shoulders of Lou Berlack, Friday morn
ing, without breaking bone or receiv-
ing internal injuries. Mcdonald is a
plumber employed by ]. Kuchler, and
was at work when a scaffold on which he
was seated, fell and precipitated him to
the skylight of the building occupied by
l.. Berlack. He fell through the sky
light down two stories and struck Mr..
Berlack, who was standing beneath the
skyhght. Neither was seriously hurt.

ASIDE from the fact that Presi-
dent Mckinley has demonstrated,
to the disgust Of the country, that
it is quite an easy matter for him
to turn away from what is his
plain duty" when the command
is given To do so by the syndicates,
the fact is made quite clear in that
portion of his inaugural address
which Mr.. Bryan quoted So effect
lively, that he recognizes the exiS-
tence of trusts, and also that they
are a great evil to the public. The
mighty Mark Hanna, however, has
declared that there is not a trust
in the country, and this statement
is reiterated every time he takes
the stump in an effort to hypnO-
tie the workingmen. The sub
stance of Hanna's speeches when
boiled down Is: There are no
trusts; there is no imperialism;
there amt nothing except me,
Mack and good times" Hanna is
a great man in his way, but his
shadow is not big enough to con-
ceal from the people the fact that
trusts are multiplying every day,
and the Republican party has done
nothing and does not intend to do
anything to destroy them.

CONGRESSMAN Grosvenor gets
down to the level of the campaign
fakir and the sensationalist when
he asserts that the Democratic can
didates will not ''get respectable
vote except by practical suppress
sion of the ballot" 1t is as absurd
as it would be to say that the Re-
publican candidates will not get
a single vote without purchasing
it. In fact the latter assertion con-
tains more of the element of truth,
for, while there is no Democratic
state in which Mr.. Bryan's success
depends on suppression of the bal
lot in any form whatever, there
are several doubtful states in which
Republican money will unques-
tionably be used in an effort to
stem the Democratic tide.

THE people of New York and
other eastern states who were bit
terly hostile to Mr.. Bryan four
years ago now know him much
better. They now appreciate him
for what he is-an honest, courag-
eous and conscientious man, who
is sincere in his desire to relieve
the people of the oppression which
is the fruit of the vicious legisla-
ton enacted for the privileged class.
Aside from this. the justice of the
fight which he is making on be-
half of the republic and against
the empire, appeals strongly to
every patriotic American. This is
the reason why the voters of New
York are arranging to give him on
