Victor Emmanuel's sanction on May Is Of that
year assured TO the Papacy not only the owner
ship Of the Vatican, but likewise sovereign and
extra-territOriaI rights within the precincts OF
the latter. II has also been a matter Of common
belief that st. Peters and the other great
basilicas at Rome were, in the same way as the
Vatican, the property Of the Papacy. A careful
perusal OF the text of the Law Of PapaI Guar
antees brings. however. TO light the fact that
there is nothing contained therein which def
niteIy recognizes the title Of the Pontfn to the
Vatican. or which comedies to him sovereign or
territorial rights within the limits Of the
palace and its extensive gardens. True, Article
VII ordains that no official OF the public au-
rhority agent Of the public forces can in the
exercise Of his peculiar office enter into the
palaces or localities Of habitual residence or
temporary stay of the Sovereign Pontiff. or in
those in which are assembled a Conclave or
EcUmencal Council. unless authorized by the
Sovereign Pontiff, by the Conclave or the Coun-
ell But on the other hand, Article VI. which
DEGREES an endowment Of some 100000 a year
from the national treasury in favor ofsthe Holy
Seat, declares that it is destined TO provide
among other things for the maintenance Of the
apostolic palaces and their dependencies; also
for the maintenance and care Of the annexed
museums and Libraries. a well for the sti-
ponds and pensions Of those employed for the
purpose; and the article concludes with these
important words: The endowment cannot be
diminished in future. even in the case OF the
Italian government resolving ultimately to as
sumo itself the expenses of the museums and
library Of the Vatics-1'
Article V. which follows. is still more e,rnIioi+
for it states that the Sovereign Pontin. besides
the endowment established in the preceding
clause. win continue to have the use Of the
apostolic palaces Of the Vatican and Iateran.

annexes. like the museums. the library and the
art and archaeological collections there existing
are exempt from every tax and impost and
from all appropriation the ground # public
utility and are. moreover. iRdIicRable"
Now. there is controversy with regard TO the
Interpretation Of this last word. The ecclesias-
teal authorities argue that Il means nalenable

river channel this>morning. Engineer
w. c. Langftt and David B. Ogden of
Portland came up in the steamer Lewis
ton last night and left on the Imnaha to
inspect the work being done by the crew
of the Imnaha. While on the sroad to
Lewiston the engineers made estimates
on the work TO be done by the steamer
Norma on the lower river.
The crew on the Imnaha have sue
ceeded in drilling holes in two big rocks
and blown them to atoms. One of these
rocks was located at the mouth of Ten
Mile creek and the other was just below
Buffalo rock. Both bonlders were three
feet under water. All of the Burnley drill
was not here when the boat left last week
and all of the work was done by hand
from swinging platform on the bow OF
the boat. The missing parts of the big
drill arrived during the absence of the
steamer and all of the equipments were
taken to the upper river preparatory to
putting in four weeks blasting in the

Crop Cut BY Hot Winds.

State Land Selector M. L. Goldsmith
returned yesterday from his trip to the
Joseph plains country. Leaving Grange
vile homeward bound last Tuesday Mr..
Goldsmith road to Ito, Dublin, Lookout,
Rosetta. Summit and Clifford inspecting
and placing rental valuations on school
sections in the vicinity of each town.
This extended route gave him splendid
chance to inspect the crop conditions OF
the country.
Two weeks ago the hot winds struck
the section between Travellers Home and
Nezperce and cnt them short so per cent
Farmers who expected 40 bushels of
wheat to the acre will only secure 20 and
rs. The wheat has changed from a
beautiful yellow to bleached white
The barley crop in that section was too
far along to be injured by the hot winds
and good yield is reported by the men
who have threshed The fax crop is
short in the Beeman country only rs per
cent of the average yield is expected at
any place on the reservation.
The towns of Summit and Clifford are
thriving. Especially Summit where a
blacksmith shop, hotel, warehouses,
store buildings and the tramway are
being pushed TO completion as fast as
material can be placed on the ground.
The town of Summit promises to
materially injure the growth of Clifford
unless the tramway is extended farther
up the ridge.
Mr.. Goldsmith has had ong experience
as farmer and his estimate of the ont
look for the farmers of Nezperce county
is that they have prosperous future.
In his travels over the county he notices
in particular, that the farmers are not
plnnging in debt as the big ranchers of
the Palouse country did before the panic
in srS93. A squeeze in the financial
world would not necessarily rob them of
their homes and belongings as 1t did in
the neighboring country ten years ago.
