FRANCE CRIES TREASON

Paris, Feb. 1S.-There ara persis-
tent rumors 10 circulation Of the dis
covery of reasonable practices carried
on by an important Official of the
foreign office, who is alleged to
have communicated to the vatican the
contents diplomatic documents eman-
ating from French ambassadors to
foreign countries. This official fl
said to have been peremptorily dis
charged.
Inquiry indicated that the discIos-
ures had their origin in documents
seized at the papal nunCiature some
time ago. An investigation CT the
rumors in official quarters has not
resulted in their confirmation, but IL
was declared that IL treason had been
committed the fact would have beer
made public in the course Of the trial
OF the three Paris cures who we're i'm
plicated with the papal nuDcio.

INSURANCE RATES
ARE REDUCED
Will Make a Big Saving to Policy
Holders in Occur d'AIene

Reduction Of % per cent in fire in
surance rates throughout the north
west, practically reestabllshing the
rates that were in effect before the
raise subsequent to the San Francisco
FIRE, is TO be made At once. This Is
the announcement made to agents In
this city.
While some Of the local agents were
surprised to learn of the reduction In
rates, most Of them unhesitatingly
attribute It to the pressure that has
been brought to bear ON the companies
by the policy holders and the agents.
Following the raise in rates last sum
mer there was a storm Of protest from
business and civil organizations all
over the country, aud this oposition
has been quietly at work since that
time In the effort to secure a reestab.
lishment OF the old rates. The re.
duction is regarded as moral victory
for the professionals.
For two months a board Of survey
ors has been at work In San FrancicsC
canvassing the situation with the view
Of complying with the demand for q
reimbursement OF the rates. While nS
official announcement has been made
the board had undoubtedly arrived al
decision and the different com
panies are notifying their agents q
the reduction in order to DO early il
the field. California IL the only stat'
affected by the raise last SUMMED
which Is not to receive the benefit o

ANDREW GIVES HIS VIEW
Says Meeting Of School Board
Was Regular.

Editor Press Permit me to cor
rect statement made by Mr.. Gunder-
son in regard to the school meeting
held Feb. II, 1907. AS to whether it
was special or regular meeting, 1
quote the minutes:
Regular monthly meeting of the
Boad of Trustees of Independent
school district No. l, held Feb. IL,
1907, at the high school. Present
Gunderson and Andrew; absent White,
VIM, Branson and Scallon. No
quorum being present, on motion
meeting adjourned till Feb. 18th,
1907 at p. M"
1t will be seen from the above that
the meeting of Feb. IL was a regular
adjourned meeting. The law provides
that four trustees shall constitute Q
quorum. but less number may ad.
journ from time to time until q
quorum be obtained. This action
Mr.. Gunderson and myself took. The
law requires that for special meetings,
each member of the board shall be
duly notified of the time and place Of
meeting; but it does not require that
notice shall be served for regular OF
adjourned regular meetings. The
charge then of meeting in "secret
conclave" is not justified by the facts
in the case or by any requirements Of
law.

The saloon keepers held a meeting
and drew up resolutions against every
cigar store and restaurant, which
they laid before Mayor Moore, and
insist that he prosecute. The saloon
men state they will compel the en-

communications to the mayor and
chief of police the saloon men declared
that in case Of their failure so to do
complaint will be made Of your refus-
al to so prosecute, and proceedings
will be instituted against you for NAL
feasance, and forfeiture of your offices
will be demanded"
Mayor Moore will make no state
ment, but Chief Wappensteiu intim-
ates that all information concerning
inGTingements on the Sunday closing
law will be sent to the prosecuting
attorney. The chief points out that
the Sunday closing law is a state

on the part of not only the travelling
