Hon. ROBERT N. BELL, State
Mine Inspector, has favored this
Office with a copy of his report. 1t
is most exhaustive treatise on the
mining situation in this state, both
from a practical and a scientific
standpoint. Regarding the general
outlook for mining in the state, a
single paragraph sounds the key
note of the situation. Mr.. Bell says:
"The product of our mines is Sc
cond only to that OF our agricultur-
al interests, and the industry is as
yet, in snch a primary stage of de-
velopment that almost anything
may be expected of it in the way
of expansion, and it is worthy of
constant encouragement, as every
other industry in the state is di-
rectly benefited by its success"

County Division Meeting.

dimensions was held
at Standpoint on Wednesday. There
were citizens present from nearly
every precinct in the proposed
county of which Standpoint asp,res

The general purpose OF the meet

of views relative to the situation,
and to discuss ways and means to
advance the cause of county divi-

After proceeding along the lines
indicated, it developed that it was

THE Republican administration
of Kootenai county is to be con-
graduated on the outcome of the
tax cases, particularly the board
of county commissioners and the
county attorney who went out of
power last January Hon. Alex
Quirie, Hon. A. A. Merritt, and
Hon. Joseph Fisher, commission
ers; and Hon. T. IL. Wilson, coun-
ty attorney. They bore the brunt
of the battle. Lawyer Charles w.
Beale, of Wallace, who was the
principal attorney for the county,
mas won a great legal triumph.
Lawyer Charles L. Hoffman, who
carried the special school tax case
to the supreme court, free of charge
to the county and school districts,
and won decision, also comes in
for praise. Judge Morgan's decis
ions have also been upheld and no
small share of the credit belongs to
him. And there are others whose
advice and counsel have been valu-
able but who did not figure official
ly in the case, who deserve all
praise. The taxpayers generally
are to be congratulated upon the
outcome. AT the end of another
year the county officials will be
able tomake a much better financial
showing, as a result OF the success
full termination OF these tax cases.

Idaho will commend Senator Hey
burn for his act. The city of Spo-
kane, not content with stealing the
army post from the shores of Lake
Occur d. Alene, in Idaho, now de-
sires to steal the lake itself. The
people of Idaho have plans of their
own in relation to the grounds of
historic old Fort Sherman and the
waters of beautiful Occur d Alene
lake. There is destined to be one
of the finest summer resorts in
America, and state pride in Idaho
demands that it be not despoiled
at Idaho's expense to Washington's
profit. Let the Washingtonians
drop down the river to their state
line and put in their headgate,
and divert the waters of the outlet
to their hearts content. Spokane
has swiped nearly everything in
sight in North Idaho and if Sena-
tor Hepburn can put stop to these
latest designs, we are sure every
loyal citizen OF Idaho will uphold
him.

THE Legislature has passed the
state depository bill advocated by
Governor Gooding in his message.
This bill will save the state annu-

principal feature of the bill is that
banks favored as state repositories
shall pay to the state interest of
not less than 2 per cent on daily
balances. Heretofore, the state trea-
surer has been putting the interest
thus obtained into his pocket.
