In the last twelve months farm
products have increased in price
from five to twenty-nine per cent.
Thirty-tive articles of food have
increased from five per cent for
bread to seventytwo per cent for
pepper. And yet some of the same
men who seek political preferrnent
are members of corporations which
attempt this year to reduce the
wages of common labor twenty per
cent from the scale in vogue last
season.

resources. By the first of September

be published another week longer.
The News also had been losing
money and in the spring of that year,

John Calling being one of the new
owners. He was off that summer, and
on his return about the opening of
September. findin" that The News was

After consolidation, the paper made
money for some years, and financial
matters being easy, the work of edit

cially as the paper gave general salts

from the beginning was to avoid hav-

chance and to be in a position to ac-
cord a hearty and cordial support to
every nominee. Mr.. James Iredell

By 1889, for some reason or another
the paper had begun to lose money
again. 1t was about that time, think.
that the Daily Chronicle appeared, un-
der the skillful management of a very
bright and able editor, and after that
there was a struggle for existence. Mr..
Jernigan, who began in 1892 q weekly
paper, the Intelligencer soon conclud~
ed that he preferred daily journalism
and sought to make an arrangement

which he would become half owner
Of The News and Observer He was
to put in a considerable amount Of
cash, enough to buy new press, some
type setting machines, a new outfit
and, also, perhaps, a home for the
paper of its own. But that arrange
ment was not carried out. He how
ever, was for some months an equal
editor on the paper and did some of
the best editorial work. He wrote
with vigor and GREAT lucidity. and was
extremely careful in the preparation
of his matter. Later, l think, he
bought the Chronicle. The News and
Observer had about that time ceased
to be run at a loss, but made no
money.

Richard Battle were among my
earliest solicitors, and then among
others, Mr.. Caddell and Mr.. w. NJ.
Rogers; taking them all in all, no
better men ever represented news
paper in North Carolina. They be-
came my faithful personal friends and
were most estimable gentlemen, and
as the patrons of the paper came to
know them, they were highly esteem
ed in every part of the State.
No men could have been more
faithful at their work, and more eff
tlcient under the difficult circum-
stances that surrounded them, than
Messrs Tom and Sam Miller one hav-
ing charge of the books and the other
of the mailing department for some
fourteen or fifteen years, from start
to finish; except that towards the end,
Mr.. Tom Miller's health required his
withdrawal, and unavailingly he
sought relief in the dry atmosphere of
Colorado. Mr. w. =. Whitaker took
his place and proved Il very cOmpe-
tent manager and an agreeable ASSOC
ciate.
Inside the office at first Mr. lutt
was my foreman, a. tirst-class man in
every respect, a gentleman OF refine
ment: and later, Harry Roberts, Wal
ter Cook and John Collins had charge
of the Office. They were all faithful,
intelligent and Woodworking, and
were masters of their craft. While
there were many changes among the
printers, some constantly coming and
going, others remained with me all the
while, ana most of the force felt as if
they were permanent part of the
establishment, and took as much
pride III the newspapers as the editor
himself.

Mr.. w. 7. Schnabel and wife
returned from Alaska Wednesday
evening of last week, after quite an
absence from Caldwell. Mr.. Selma
bel has lived near Dawson city,
where he has two very promising
mining claims, one on each side ofthe
city. He says, ALASKA is a great
country" While there are thous-
ands of square miles of unexplored
country that section of North Amer
ica is coming to the front. "Since the
big discoveries thousands of people
have settled there and now Alaska
is not such an undesirable place
in which to live. They have four
months of summer, and good
crops are raised. Grain, alfalfa
and vegetables are the staple pro-
ducts while stock raising is becom-
ing an important industry in some
parts" Of course in the northern
parts and the interior uninhuenced

and the fur and fishery industries
can be prosecuted successfully and
proftably. The fur trade of Alaska

and effect to every legislative enact
ment which can reasonably be said
to come within the Legislative power
as prescribed and limited by the
provisions of the constitution. We
are in entire accord with the Lam
guage used by Mr.. Chiel Justice
Bartholomew in State VS.. Nomland.
81 NV, So, cited by both plain
tiff and defendant wherein he said:
Refinement upon this constitu-
tional provision and the enforce
ment of a narrow construction
would greatly embarrass the legis
lature and nullify a large percentage
of most beneficial legislation. This
court should be careful and destroy
no legislation sanctioned by the law
making branch of the state govern
ment, unless such legislation be a
clear violation of the constitutional
requirements. But we have no
duty higher or more sacred than is
the duty to preserve in all its in
tegrity every provision in the
fundamental law of the state.''
The provisions of the constitution
are applicable alike to the Legislative
executive and judicial departments
of the state government, and by its
terms it has imposed upon the courts
the duty of determining when and
in what cases its provisions have
been violated and OF enforcing an
observance of its mandates.

THE DECISION
OF The COURT
Supreme Court Knocks Out
Depository Law

The supreme court has held the
State depository law unconstitu-
tioual. It finds the title of the act
insufficient under section I6, article
3 of the State constitution, which
provides that "every act shall en-
brace but one subject and matters
properly connected Herewith, which
subject shall be embraced in the
title"
The title of the act is, San act to
provide for the care and keeping of
moneys in the custody of the treas
urer of the State OF Idaho, and pre-
scribing penalties" " The court
finds that this does not cover such
provisions of the act as that Great.
ing foard of deposits, that pro-
viding for the designation of State
repositories, etc. The Supreme
Court decided no other point.
This was a case in which the
court was asked to issue writ of
mandate to H. N. Coffin, Sta te
treasurer, commanding him to COM
ply with an order of the board of
deposits, directing him to deposit
$1,000 with the Boise City National
bank, which had been designated

Increase of Business.

The growth and developement of
the county is well reflected by the
business done in the recorders Of
fee during the past year. The
business has greatly increased since
year ago. Clerk Tucker kindly
furnished a representative of THE
TRIBUNE with the following figures;
There has been III marriage licen-
ses issued this year and 500 licenses
recorded. There have been 2e6o
instruments recorded excepting
chattel mortgages of which 1898
were recorded. Forty articles of
incorporation were filed. The fees
collected December "a amounted to
$751; 10, just $40 more than the fees
of Ada County for the same date
and nearly double those of Dec. "a,
1903 Of Canyon County. The work
is well handled by Clerk and Mrs.
Tucker, the recording work being
always up-to-date, a condition
which has never existed before in
the history of the county.
