gence and civilization will dispel
the darkness and gloom from the
out of the way places of our State.
The isolated mining and sheep

Delaware will once more be rep
resented in the u. S. Senate. For
two years Delaware has had no
representation in the upper house
of the National legislature and for
four years it has had but one.
Delaware is next to the smallest
State in the union, with a popula-
ton little greater than that of Ida
no. J. Edward Addicks has dom
mated the political situation in
Delaware for several years and pre-
vented the election of a Senator.
He still dominates. -. s..*.

After Surveyor General.

. Washington, March 4.-Surveyor
General E. C. Eagleson will face
two distinct propositions on the re-
ceipt of a communication from the
commissioner of the general land
Office, which Commissioner Rich
ards forwarded today. s--. ..-.
The alternatives offered are to
permit Chief Clerk Schlegel to en-
ter upon all the duties of his posi-
ton, with full charge of his work,
or the immediate resignation Of the
surveyor general will be demanded.
The commissioner is much pro-
voked at his conduct in the matter
and will brook no further delay.
Commissioner Richards, after
careful revision of the facts relating
to the trouble in the surveyor gen
erals Office over the chief clerkship,
with the approval of Secretary
Hitchcock, forwarded the ultimat-
um to Mr.. Eagleson, directing that
he give full recognition to Schlegel,
according him the treatment due
his position, or forward his resigna-
ton Immediately.
The commissioner, after review
ing Inspector McMillan's reports,
finds the surveyor general contum-
acious, evincing disposition to
evade the la W, which has been re-
peatedly explained to him. He
finds the charge that the chief clerk
has been treated with discourtesy
sustained; that he has not been
permitted to enter properly upon
his duties, and has been completely
ignored since taking his position.
MI. Sch1egers competency is un-
questioned. His appointment was
fully within the law, and the de-
partment cannot and will not con-
slider Mr.. Eagleson's request that
he be removed.

Camp Tender Near Nyssa, Oregon,
Shot by Employer.
HE WANTED A SETTLEMENT
Got a Gunshot Wound That May
Prove Fatal-Other Matters :
-'"...- of interest.

Ontario, Ore, March 4. A
shooting ARRAY occurred at Nyssa,
nine miles from this place, late this
afternoon. Jasper Griffith, a well
known Idaho sheepman, shot and
fatally injured his camp tender,
John Roulston, about money mat
tiers. From what can be learned
about the shooting from parties
who were at Nyssa at the time, it
seems that Roulston came to town
from ,Grifith's camp and met his
employer and was called to account
for coming to Nyssa with a hay
rack to receive corn to feed Grifith's
flock, some seven thousand head.
Roulston told Griffith that the time
had come to make a settlement, as
he did not longer wish to be in his
employ. Both left saloon to re-
pail " Gm1SOu SLO1S " oCtIAC lACI4
wage difficulty, and before they
reached the O. S. L. track Griffith
shot Roulston in the right side.
The injured mat was brought to
Ontario and attended by DR.. Pogue.
His family and father and mother
arrived from Weiser this evening to
be at his bedside.
Mr.. Griffith came to this place
and surrendered himself to Marshal
Carol and has engaged Will r.
King to defend him On the advice
of his attorney Mr.. Griffith will not
discuss the matter relating to the
shooting. His preliminary exami-
nation will occur tomorrow

A SPLENDID LECTURE.
Rev. Holman Adds New Laurels to
His Fame.


A splendid lecture was given by
Rev. G. E. Holman of the Metho-
dist church Monday on "Our OPP
portunities,' at the Assembly Hall
of the College of Idaho. The
number attending was not SO large
as expected owing to the inclemency
of the weather but what was lack
ing in number was more than made
up in intelligence and interest. The
lecture was both interesting and
entertaining and delivered in a
pleasing and earnest manner. This
lecture has been delivered at the
State University at Moscow, where
it received great applause. Mr..
Holman emphasized the necessity
of college education in every day
life in very pleasing manner. In
addition to the lecture trio of
young ladies rendered some excel
lent vocal music. A few pieces
was given by the graphophone be-
longing to Prof. Boone. All who
were present at the lecture ex-
pressed a great interest in behalf of
educational facilities of this city.

gu makes its levy and the amount
the levy will bring is then charged
against the assessor. That is; If
tne assessed valuation of the city is
P4oo, 900, and the levy by the CITY
IS S mills, the city charges the as,
SCISSOR $4,000. On the first of each
month the county assessor makes 4
settlement with the city clerk, and
receives credit for collections, erron-
eous assessments, etc, and the as
SCISSOR then pays the money he has
received from collections to the
city treasurer, receives a receipt
in duplicate from him and files
one of the receipts with the
county auditor. When the taxes
become delinquent the city clerk
and county assessor have a general
settlement. The assessor is then
charged with the delinquent list
and a 10 per cent penalty. The as
SCISSOR charges fee of ~ per
cent as full payment to the county
and all its officers for the collection
of city taxes. .....
Mr.. Geisier collected the taxes
for the city and turned the money
received. by him directly over to
city treasurer.
A little difference of opinion has
arisen between the city and Asses
sor Geisler respecting the manner
of settlements, Mr.. Geisler holding
that the proper method is to hold
the county's per cent out at the
time of settlement. The city at
torney holds that the assessor
should present his claims for the
collections, and have the same aud
tied and allowed as other claims
against the city. Acting on the
opinion of the city attorney, the
council has instructed that Mr..
Geisler remit the amount of the
per cent he has withheld, $36.44,
and present his claim in regular
form.
Ordinance No. 43 which provides

Ex-Mayor Sebree presented the
following petition:
Caldwell, Idaho, Feb. 20, 1903.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council, Caldwell, Idaho. Gentle
men: I desire to use the streets
and alleys on First and Main
streets for the purpose of handling
building material for the erection
of a building on the corner of First
and Main streets. I respectfully
ask that you grant me this privi-
lege while constructing said build
ing, also the right to lay sewerage
pipes from said building through
the street or alley to connect the
same with Indian creek.
In consideration of the erection
of the building on the corner of
said streets to cost not less than
thirty thousand dollars, to be used
principally as hotel, I would re-
spectfully ask that you pass such
resolutions or ordinances providing
for a rebate of water and city taxes
for a term of five years, as your
honorable body will readily under
stand it is not as rule very remun-
erative to the owner of such prop
erty. l believe that such an act by
your body would be only justice to
the owner as well as beneficial to
the citizens of Caldwell.
If desired, I will submit plans
and specifications to the council
that they may fully understand
what is proposed to be done by
such a grant.
Very respectfully submitted,
HOWARD SEBREE.
Council will meet again on Mon
dao March 16, 1903.
