Many important changes have been
made and will be made in the states
revenue laws by the tenth Washing
TON legislature, changes which the
authors claim will contribute vastly to
the more equitable adjustment of tax
burdens among the people. All meas
ures OF this class presented have all
been given prompt consideration
Some have already become laws. sew
eral others have already been signed
by the governor and will become laws
at the end of the constitutional On
days, while practically all the more
important ones have been disposed of
by the legislature or will be within the
next few days.
PROBABLY the most important of these
measures, so far as its present effect
upon the adjustment of tax burdens ic
concerned are house bill No 15o
which authorizes the tax commission
to assess all railroad and street rail.
way property, and house bill No. 256
Whlch authorizes the commission to
assess the property of telegram com.
panles. While these two measures do
not become effective for the assaos.
ment OF 1907 it is probable that the
fact that the commission will make an
assessment next year, will insnire
county assessors to make a much
higher assessment this year than 9th.

IDAHO KIDNAPPING
Congress Asked to Look Into Meyer
Haywood-P ettibone Case.

Observation-Disclosures labor has
asked congress to institute an inves-
tigation into all Of the facts and cir
cumstances attending the arrest IN
Colorado OF Charles H. Meyer, Will
lam D. Haywood and George F. Petit
bone, officers of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners, and their deportation
to Idaho to stand trial on the charge
of completely in the murder Of ex-
Governor Steunenberg.
To that end Senator Carmack has
introduced a petition signed by hun
dreds of workingmen and citizens, and
also had printed in the records the dis
tice, McKenna to the opinion of the
supreme court of the United States,
that the court could not inquire into
the circumstances surrounding the al
legged kidnapping of the three men.
Senator Hepburn then secured an
order for the printing of the majority
opinion of the court.
The petition asked for the enact
ment of 'such laws and measures as
may DO lCQuii GU W lOui Coo lhC 6liC'-
GUS wrongs committed against Meyer,
Haywood and Pettibone, and to safe
guard and protect the citizens of this
country from legalized kidnapping and
deportations by administrative order
in the future"
The fact that these men had not
been in Idaho for several years prior
to the time they were arrested for
completely in the Steunenberg murder
is recited
1t is declared that the decision of
the supreme court that it could not in
quire into the alleged conspiracy of
the governors of Idaho and Colorado
legalizes the crime of kidnapping and
puts in the hands of corporate inter-
ests power by which they may lay
hands upon citizens of any state, tear
them from their homes and fresides
deport them to another state and
thrust them into prison, there to re.
main without trial for months or years.
thus depriving citizens of their right
to life and liberty without due process
of law.
The petition emphasizes the claim
that the Western Federation of Min.
ers is Large and peaceful organiza-
ton of labor"
