Refused Hearing I'm Pursuance of
Director Skins Order to Chiefs.

Frederick J. v. Skin, Director OF the
Division Of Exhibits has issued orders to
the chiefs Of the various departments not
to recognize any organization which may
wait upon them and to treat with commit
tees only as individuals.
The order Of Mr.. Skiff was made known
to the Public Affairs Committee Of the Ex-
ccutive Commissioners Association when
IT called upon Frederick w. Taylor, Chief
OF Horticulture and Agriculture to present
the grievances Of the State exhibitors In
the Palace of Horticulture. The commit
tee had been requested by the exhibitors
70 take up their grievances with the Ex-
p0sition authorities, but Mr. Taylor in
carrying out the instructions OF his chief
declined to treat with them as a commit
tee.
Mr.. Taylor also Informed the Commits
sloners that strict orders had been given
not TO recognize the Executive Commits

The Rathdrum tribune. (Rathdrum, Idaho) 1903-1963, 1904-06-10

THE Wallace Press believes
that the formation OF a new
state out OF Northern Idaho and
Eastern Washington, will never
come about, that there is no
sentiment in favor OF it inNorth-
ern Idaho and that it would be
n matter OF very great regret il
the division Of the state were
considered even a possibility.
The Press, probably has not
taken into consideration that
Eastern Washington has no in
terests in common with Western
Washington and that the inter
ests OF Northern Idaho are not
those Of Southern Idaho, and
that this being the case there is
undoubtedly a possibility OF the
formation of q new state i'll the
course of time.

For County Attorney.

June 9, 1904.
Cup Bros, Editors,
My dear Sirs:--At the request Of
friends and taxpayers I have conclud.
ed TO be a candidate sor the nomina-
ton for county attorney, subject TO
the action Of the next county Repub
lican convention.
In making this announcement de-
sire to say that am entirely in ac-
cord with the opinion Of citizens gen
orally that the salary allowed the
county attorney is sufficient to secure
a competent and faithful discharge of
all the duties Of the Office and that
the people Of the county should not
be taxed additionally to pay extra
counsel fee in order to defend or pros
ecute the county's interests in the
courts.
am decidedly Of the opinion that
all prisoners remanded to the county
jail by the various committing magis.
trates should be promptly and vigor-
ously prosecuted and that they should
not be discharged without at least
some effort being made in each case
to vindicate the criminal laws. The
reputation, the credit, the prosperity
OF a county turn largely upDn the en-
fOrcement Of the laws.
In the event Of my nomination and
subsequent election I would adhere to
policy OF strict enforcement Of the
laws-eiyil and misunderstanding
public interests, and pledge myself to
do this without invoking the aid of
other attorneys at the public expense
Very Truly,
BARTLETT SINCLAIR.
