Idaho County Business.

The fiscal year for Idaho county
ended last Saturday and the aud
itor's Office shows the largest bust
ness transacted in the history of
the county. During the year just
closed the auditor and recorders
office has made $3.50 entries and
has turned over to the county
treasurer Sl2,650 II on account of
fees received. This is probably the
largest business done in any county
office in the state, yet it was per-
formed without a hitch in wholly
inadequate quarters. The work
not only speaks well for the eff
cheney OF our auditor and the
growth of our county, but has been
a splendid source OF revenue for
the county, as the cost of main
tanning the office has been less than
half of the receipts.

Representative Avery Moore has
INTRODUCED an employers liability
bill in the house of representatives
and hopes for it's final adoption by
both houses. This measure was a
plank in the state democratic plat
form upon which the late campaign
was fought out. The bill as intro
duced is duplicate of the law as
it exists in nearly all the states,
and there is no good reason why
Idaho should not fall into line for
the protection Of the employees in
the various lines OF business in
this state.

Idaho Protests.

Protests are being received
in Washington from all over
the state by the Idaho senators
against the passage of the bill in
troduced by Senator Quarles re-
pealing the timber, stone, desert
and Communication act. Following
the communications from the
Business Mems association of
Moscow are strong letters from the
mayors of Wardner and Wallace
and from District Attorney Crozier.
The Panhandle seems to be
thoroughly aroused in this matter,
and a consensus of opinion from
that section, if the letters sent to
Washington may be used as cri-
terions, is that the proposed legisla
tion is exceedingly inimical to the
development of that section of the
state

Saltwater Sam" Owings, who
runs the Times Democrat at Mos
cow, has great deal to say why
his paper will in the future be re-
publican. To those who are ac-
quainted with the sheet it is the
most childish rot, as nobody cares.
During it's career nothing has ap-
peared in it's columns that would
indicate ability or WELD influence.
1t has simply existed as a barnacle
on the democratic party, and the
party will be all the better for hav-
ing lost it.

formed that a bill has been or is
about to be introduced in the legis-
lature Of the state of Idaho Great
ing a new county ont of a portion
af the northern part of this county
and of portion of other counties

porated into such new county;
Therefore, Be it unanimously

Senator Hepburn at a banquet
given in his honor at Boise last
week said that he would labor Ito
protect our timber lands from cor

to curb the rapacity of railroad
corporations" Such remarks sound
strange from a man who has spent
his life and talent in defense of the
biggest corporations in the west;
but maybe he meant it.

Coal has advanced IS a ton in


Chicago and the wholesale price
has reached $11.5O per ton. This
price makes fuel beyond the reach
OF the poor, and several deaths
have occurred from cold in the des-
titute homes Of that city. Dealers
can give no particular reason for
the rise in price further than the
condition OF the Market" The
situation has become 80 serious
that congress has taken the matter
up and threatens to remove the
duty on coal, which is practically
an admission that the coal trust is
bad trust,' and that the pro-
tective tariff is the cause Of it's ex-
istence. It is only through such
crises as . coal famine in cold
weather, or the shutting of Of nee
essary food supplies, that will
arouse the American public to a
sense Of the danger threatened by
the trust system. Present condi-
tions in many portions of the coun-
try may lead up to the creation Of
public sentiment against the trust
policies Of the republican party that
will shortly call for q new order Of
things.
