Plan Being Promoted on Southern Pacific

A prominent employee OF the South
ern Pacific, who is actively promoting
the proposed benefit and pension de.
partment OF that company. says:
THE agreement to the plan is being
rapidly signed by employees over the
system, with the exception Of those in
the train service belonging to the
brotherhoods. Notwithstanding the
proposed regulations provide that
membership in the various features
shall be voluntary and that any subse-
quent changes must be submitted to q
vote Of the mem bers, the brotherh ood
men think that compulsion may ulti.
mately be e/resorted to- Hence their
opposition. In view of this, it has
about been decided to call a meeti @
OF the committee of employees hav.
ing the matter in charge on various
parts OF the system, to meet at an early
date for the purpose of considering the
advisability of modifying the proposed
regulations so as to include in the
membership only such employees as
are engaged in non-hazardous occupa-
tions, thereby, in the interest of har-
mony, relieving the brotherhood men
of their suspicious"

Idaho Code Commission Reports.

The Idaho code commission has filed
its report 1t takes occasion to score
one OF its members, Phil Averitt, of
Fremont county. The commission
created small deficiency. OF this it
says: "We regret to say that this ex-
ira expenditure Is due entirely to the
failure Of one OF the members Of the
commission, Mr. Averitt, to perform
his duty.
1--WE have received no assistance
from him and besides the extra ex-
pense incurred by his neglect OF duty
the remaining members of tho COM
mission have been compelled to labor
at least four months longer than they
otherwise would, and the Anal print

been correspondingly delayed"

IDAHO LEGISLATION.
State Auditor Suggests Tax on Isurance
Premiums aud Output of Mines

State Auditor Suggests Tax on Isursnce
Premiums aud Output of Mines
State Auditor Sinclair in his biennial
report suggests a state tax of per
cent. on the premiums of insurance
companies in lieu Of fixed license,
which the leg islature will probably
adopt.
The report also recommends tax on
the net output of all mines. This is
one of the very important matters the
legislature will have to take up, the
supreme court having decided that
mines could be taxed, but not laying
down any rule on which to base the
taxation.
1t is strongly urged that the legisla-
ture take steps to compel delinquent t
counties to pay the amounts they owe
the state, the sum reaching more than
$3.50, 900.

State of Washington Laying Plans to Annex
the Pam Handle of Idaho.

A Spokane dispatch says plans are
being formed to secure the annexation
OF the northern part Of Idaho to the
state OF Washington. State Represen-
tative IL. ID. Lorritt is planning to
bring this project be fore the legisla-
ture at its coming session.
The purpose is to add to Washing
ton the entire region known as the
panhandle" lying north of the forty
sixth parallel, which is the southern
boundary of Washington. This would
include kootenai, Shoshone, Latah and
Nez Perce and part of Idaho county,
taking in all of the famous Coeur
d'Alene silver-lead mining district, as
we'll as most of the rich Clearwater
gold fields. The plan is received with
enthusiasm at Washington and north
ern Idaho has in the past voted in
favor of such annexation by an over
whelming majority.
1t is argued that southern Idaho
would now consent because of the lack
of railway connection between the two
parts OF the state and especially be-
cause OF the great expense resulting
from the mining riots in the Coeur
d'Alene district and two years of mar.
tial law.

Governor Thomas Suggests Taxing In
comes and Inher tances to Raise Funds.
Governor Thomas Of Colorado in
transmitting his final message to the
legislature Thursday said:
'Our credit is exhausted aud we are

mend that our great industrial corpo-

OF no other method whereby they can
be compelled to ratably and Justly
contribute to the public burdens.
Their evasions of the revenue laws are
general and notorious.
Experience teaches that two meth.
DDS of reaching personal property may
be effectively employed. One is the
taxation of incomes; the other is of in.
heritance. They are neither novel OF
burdensome."
The governor advocates the taxation
of franchises. He recommends a bond
issue for the refunding of the entire
outstanding warrant Indebtedness Of
the state, including the so-called ex
cess warrants and accumulated inter
est thereon. The floating debt of the
state, the pay Of which, the Cover

CUBAN CONSTITUTIONAL CON-
VENTiON.
Future Relations with Unitcd States Being

Future Relations With United States Be,ng
Graveiy Considered.
The Cuban constitutional corveution
is considering two promulgations of

the United States. One OF these affirms
In the drst place an acceptance OF the
Monroe doctrine aud the Establishment
of friendly relations with all nations,
together with a resolution to proceed
in all cases in complete accord with
it proposes to put at the disposal of the
United States portion OF the shore of
any bay of the north coast and of two
bays on the south coast for naval sta
tions, together with concessions suffici-
ent In extent for the purpose of tdefense
and sanitation. In the third place, 1t
declares that Cuba will place herself on
a war footing to help the United States
in case her assistance should be needed,
while fourth proviso is an amplitica.
tion of the first, second and third.
The other promulgati contem-
plates:
First-That the convention is vested
with authority only to convene.
Second-Not having been granted
legislative functions, the convention
cannot arrange the basis OF future re-
lations.
Third-Nevertheless, should Wash
ington desire such discussion, the
convention is willing to discuss and
agree upon an arrangement OF mutual
relations.
Fourth-The asoirations OF the con-
veution are merely to consolidate the
country for reconstruction. Its ener-
gies are directed toward supporting the
avowed policy of the United States, to
which Cuba is bound by indestructible
ties Of gratitude, said policy being
based upon the unequivocal preserva-
tion OF liberty and independence
throughout the American continent.
The former promulgation embode.
the desire of delegates friendly to the
United States. The latter is counter
check to the extremists. 1t is consd.
cred that the former is likely TO carry.

Director Roberts finds that while the
money supply OF the world has in.
creased about $1,000, 900, 900, the in.
crease in gold money since 1879 has
been about $4,000, 900, 900; in silver
