THE FARMERS YEAR.

Thunder Mountain and the other
camps in the heart Of Idaho are
going to be great consumers of
agricultural products this year. II
is sure that many thousands of
men will 60 into that country, and
while there is always an exodus
out into the settlements along to-
wards the fall of the year, it is Ger
tain that enough will remain to
insure a permanent population,
all of whom must be fed. There
will be largely increased demand
from this market for beef cattle,
hogs and mutton sheep, as well as
for feed for the same, together with
a wholesale market for -four, vege-
tables, fruits and everything else
needed in a mining community.
Also there will be hundreds of ami
mails on the trail all the time,
which must be fed, and taking all
these demands for supplies in this
new country about to be opened
up, it will be found to be enormous.
The demand upon the farmers of
this state is bound to insure cash
market for all they produce, and
that market should by every law
of nature be controlled by Camas
Praire farmers, seeing that this
section is the nearest agricultural
settlement to that great mountain
region which embraces the heart
OF the state of Idaho.

MINE TAXATION.

The Colorado legislature, now in
special session, has amended the
revenue bill ON mine taxation as
follows:
Mines are separated into two
classes-producers and non-pro.
dncers. A producer is mine
with q gross yearly production Of
$4,000 or more, and shall be assessed
at not more than one-fourth it's
gross proceeds, providing the net
proceeds of the property do not ex-
coed one-fourth the gross proceeds.
The net proceeds are to be deter.
mined by deducting from the gross
proceeds the cost of extracting,
shipping and treating the ore.
Non-producers shall not be assessed
at more than the smallest producer
in the same locality.
Why the basis should be that of
one-quarter of the gross output in
stead OF the entire amount is not
made clear. 1t would appear to
be exceptional aud OF that class of
special legislation which may pro-
woke a great deal of legal contro.
versy. The basis for non-produ-
GERS seems also open to objections.

There has been considerable
activity all winter in the various
mines in and about Dixie. The
Goldbug and Columbia groups,
recently consolidated, have COM
pleted the contract awarded last
fall for sinking 100 feet of shafting
and $50 feet of drifting, with the
result that these standard proper
ties are showing up better than
sver. The mill on the Dixie
Queen, controlled by w. Fl. Plum
msr and Hye Bros will start up
a. soon as the spring thaw permits
the water to run. A 4-stamp mill
is also being erected on the North
Star. The Hogan Bros. 1O-stamp
mill on Crooked river is being
erected and will soon be in shape
tor crushing ore from those big
properties. On Big creek crew OF
men have been working all winter,
and a l00-foot tunnel has been run
on the Helen Gould. The outlook
for big development in that Sec
ton OF Idaho, county for the COM
ing summer could not possibly be
better, as all the mines are show
ing up to beat the most ssnguinsT

The altitude at the mouth Of the
Golden Reef tunnel on Thunder
Mountain is 1900 feet, and at the
summit OF the mountain il is 5000
feet. The mountain has great
basal width and offers no prec-
ipitous fronts. The general forma-
ton is rhyolitic granite traversed
by strong porphyrytic dykes, the
values occurring in conjunction
with the porpbyry. Thunder
Mountain is the heart Of q great
mineral zone that extends from
Custer county on the southeast to
Warren on the northwest The
district has been known in a
general way to prospect0rs for the
past 40 years, but little attention
has been given to it owing to the
difficulty of access The present
summer will witness an activity in
the heart Of Idaho which will sur
pass the visions of the dreamers
who have been looking forward for
years to its exploitation and de-
velOpment.

The School Question,

The present trustees Of Grange
vile independent school district
are Messrs. j. Schwalbach, G. II.
Schmadeka, w. A. Hall, +. Rich
ardson. G. M. Day and w. w.
Brown. At the election to be held
in September next two trustees are
to be elected to succeed Messrs.
Schmadeka aud Day. Under the
law an election is held every Sec
Ond year at which two trustees are
elected to serve for six years. AT
the last election, in 1900, Messrs.
Richardson aud Hall were elected,
only three or four votes being cast,
which surely does not look we'll for
the public interest in matters edu-
cational.
AS briefly indicated in these col
unns last week, it is up to the
public to be thinking about the
future needs of the district. The
large school house, together with
the new primary building, are
crowded to Overlooking. The pri-
mary department. in particular has
suffered grievously during the pres
ent term. There are 80 pupils in
this grade, and only one teacher.
Half Of the pupils are permitted to
attend in the forenoon and the
other half in the afternoon. An
other teacher is really required
now for this department.. At the
opening of the next term at least
40 new pupils in the primary de-
partment are expected, that being
the normal rate of increase, so that
new rooms as well as additional
teachers must be provided.
1t has been suggested that build
ings for the primary departments
should be erected in different parts
of the district, for the accommo-
dation of the little people, while
bonds should be issued for the pur-
pose of erecting another building
as large, or larger, than the present
structure, to be erected in the
northern part of the town, and
thus give the district ample room
for the next four or five years. 1t
is understood that the trustees
have sufficient funds on hand or
available, to erect the necessary
primary buildings, but we are not
advised as to the available sources
for the payment of the increased
force Of teachers which will be
required for the new school term
which opens next September.
More rooms and additional teachers
are absolute necessities which must
be provided in the immediate
future, and no doubt the trustees
will be glad Of any suggestions
which may be presented to them
looking to a solution of the problem.

UNWISE LEGISLATION.

The collapse Of the state bridge
across Salmon river last week shows
the sublime folly of one-half OF the
laws upon the statute books of this
state. The reason the bridge fell
down was because Of law prohib-
iting the county commissioners
from expanding more than one
thousand dollars on any wagon
road, trail, court house or any
other necessary public improve
ment without first submitting the
proposition to a vote OF the people
and obtaining their consent. Here
is bridge which cost the taxpay-
ers of the state SO, 900, and which
could have been saved but for the
iron-clad restrictions which tied the
commissioners hand and foot and
prevented them from taking the
necessary steps to preserve this
bridge before it collapsed. This
kind Of legislation is not economy.
The bridge was known to be in a
dangerous condition, and the COM
mon sense way would have been to
repair it out OF hand. But in pub
lie matters You have to follow q
policy which would not be tolerated
for moment in private business.
The bridge was in danger and
should have been repaired; but il
the commissioners had gone ahead
and violated the law by repairing
the bridge we should have heard
them called anarchists, usurpers
and despots, and in all likelihood
the matter would have been made
An issue in the coming campaign.
Meanwhile, the $4,000 bridge is
reposing quietly in the bed Of
Salmon River, and in spite of this
example of the lost bridge, we ven-
ture that no Scion in all the state
legislature will have the gumption
to propose the repeal of this fool
ish law.
