YOUNGEST CHIEF JUSTICE I'M

SHE is only 80 years of age,
Kansas has supreme Judge who
is fair, fat and forty" bat Idaho goes
the windy grasshopper state one bet
ter. Judge Ailshie is none of the three
Not fair for his hair--what he has left
is black as ravens wing; not fat,
for he is as thin as a prize athlete:
and not forty, for that comparative
old age is still two years away. In
fact, he will be entirely out of the
game before that time.
Judge Aishie has made an unusual
ly good record on the bench. No
clearer nor more vigorous opinions
have been written in the history of
the state--and that's a fact. He can
not be termed "boy Justice" for his
legal opinions are founded on hard
sense, and are not put forth as sopho-
more essays to be taken with due al
lowance for youthful exuberance.
They are the kind that will stand as
precedent for the future.
The judge Is native of Tennessee.
but has been in Idaho for 16 years.
He once taught school down in Mis-
souri,, where he had to excuse some
of his pupils every day to have their
regular spells of chi!is and fever.
He says that but for the Shakes"
that were so prevalent down in "Show
Me" land, he might have stayed there
and grown up with that staid old COM
monwealth instead of following the
setting sun to the land where the sun
shines all the time-Idaho.

The democrats objected on the

presented at this session. among them
being one for child labor legislation.

railroad question. He believes that
the state could make a winning by
passing a good tax-title law, whereby
the state could give d valid tax deed,
and insure the collection of the taxes
justly levied. In Canada, he says. and
in some of the Eastern states, a tax
deed is about the best title that can
be given--and it doesn't take forever
to get 1t, either. Mr. McCutcheon did
not say that he would present such

The Best In the State,

For years the Union has prided
itself on publishing the neatest and
best arranged delinquent tax list of
any newspaper in the state. The state
papers admit that the Unions list
is model for others to copy after.
Officials at the court house say they
hear many compliments bestowed on
the U n i O n in this connection. Last
week Clerk of Court King was in a
Minneapolis real estate Office where
twenty-five or thirty papers contain
ing the tax lists of their respective
counties were being closely scanned
by interested parties and it was the
unanimous opinion of all present that
the Mile Laos county list as published
in the U n was by far the neatest
and best of the lot. The Union
values the opinions of intelligent
people.

About Twenty Dollars.

The entertainment at the Methodist
church on Tuesday evening was
highly appreciated by all in attend

gram was especially good and those
who participated demonstrated that
their selections had been carefully
studied and frequently rehearsed.
In the various numbers there was
virtually no choice so far as perfec-
ton in rendition was concerned
participants were equally worthy of
commentator.
The Apollo Male Quartet, composed
of Guy Ewing, Grover Umbehocker,
Fremont Woodcock and Chas. Kopp
rendered some excellent selections:
Mrs. Perkins sang two solos, Miss
Peterson gave reading and Mrs. h.
II. Farnham executed two selections
on the piano.
Ice cream and cake was afterwards
served to the audience by the lady
members of the church and a period
of much social enjoyment was passed.

Carried Over to April Term
of the District Court.

On Saturday the case of Sjoblom

pany vs.. J. F. Sullivan ct al. came
up for hearing before Judge Myron
Taylor in St. Cloud. This was suit
wherein the plaintiffs sought to obtain
an injunction restraining the defend.
ants from operating a barroom upon
the premises known as the Riverside
hotel, Princeton.
The grounds set forth for the action
were that prior to the time of the exc.
cution of lease to the hotel property
contract had been made, and was on
file in the register of deeds Office Of
Mile Laos county, which forbade the
sale of liquor upon the Riverside
hotel premises for a period of ter
years.
That temporary injunction be is.
sued by the court was the prayer Of
the petitioners.
Judge Taylor, after listening to a
portion of the evidence, ordered the
case carried over to the April term O!
court. In the course of the testimony
produced Mr.. Sullivan said that il
permitted to operate barroom in the
Riverside hotel he would add twenty
rooms to the building and give

County Pays for States Wrongs.

The alleged illegal fishing case re.
Gently heard in Judge Chadbourne's
court, wherein Deputy Gamewarden
Indrehus charged Fred Dahlstrom of
Milaca with operating a fish house on
the Rum river, cost the county of
Mile Laos over S31. Mr.. Dahlstrom
had in his possession two small pick
erel when arrested by the over
officious deputy, and anyone is per-
1mitted by law to catch as many pick
erel as he can at any time of the year.
No evidence was presented which
proved to the satisfaction of the jury
that Mr.. Dahlsrom ever operated a
fish house, and thus it must be con-
cluded that he had no such house as
charged in the Indictment. It is to be
deplored that the county should every
now and then be called upon to pay
from its treasury money for the prose-
cution of persons charged with VIOLA
ton of the game laws when such
offenses exist only in the minds eye
of some designing minion employed
by the state.
