Mr.. THOMPSON
Richard Price, of Princeton Talks
on the Political Situa-
ton in His County

Mr.. Richard Price of Princeton, a.
member of the last legislature from
Latah county is in the city on business
before the local local land Office.
Mr.. Price expects to be a delegate
from his precinct at the coming con-
vention to be held at Moscow. Mr..
Price says in speaking of the political
situation in his county Il believe that
when the final test comes that the
members from Latah county will
stand in with Nez Perez county in
sending Mr.. G. w. Thompson of this
city to the national convention. Latah
county has had it's full quota of polit-
ical offices in that of Congressman
French who represents this state at
Washington and do not believe that
our county can expect or ask for any
greater favors from the republican
party"
During the last Legislature / was
the only member from our county who
supported the Clearwater boom bill
and opposed the Idaho boom bill pre-
scented by local corporation. AS re-
suit of the defeat of the Clearwater
boom bill Idaho has lost much revenue
in the way Of taxable property which
they would have had had that measure
been passed: The Weyerhatleser peo-
pie maintain and operate a big lum-
Der camp near Princeton and at this
time there are fifteen million feet Of
logs in the drive which will soon pass
out of the states jurisdiction and come
under the taxable property of the state
Of Washington where their mills are
now located. II their measure had
been acted upon favorably the mills
would have been built in this state
and the revenue derived therefrom
ury."
