Advocated His Own Bill.

Mr. Patterson's remarks were predic4t
ed on a bill recently introduced by him
providing for the acquisition of the rail-
roads of the country by the government
Regardless of the efforts Of congress to
regulate the railroads, the power anG
purposes of the great railroad cOmbina-
items have not changed asserted Mt
Patterson. They have increased in
lower, aggressiveness and in utter indif-
ference To public rights"
The railroad rate law he regarded as
presenting little promise of relief. This
legislation. he continued, was forced on
the railroads by the pressure OF public
sentiment and when ii became plain to
the people that no relief has resulted, the
same pressure will accomplish govern
ment ownership.
Mr.. Patterson quoted the supreme court
that "a railroad is a public highway. and
none the less so because constructed and
maintained through the agency of cor
poration deriving its existence and power
from the state. Such a corporation was
created for public purposes. Ii performs
q function of the state"
On the fact that railroads exercise q
function of the government he said,
depend the rights of the people with re-
gard to the ownership and operation of
the roads.

pective localities and don't as a
rule suppress an item unless we
have grounds for doubling it's cor
rectness. We are not personally
acquainted with Mr.. Johnson and
know nothing either for or against
him. But we do know that he is
now living with his family at Rose
berry; that the story about him
skipping out with a young lady
who was not his wife, was false,
and we again express regret for any
wrong action this paper has taken
in the matter. Before closing this,
we call Mr.. Johnson's attention to
the fact that the name of the young
lady who he was said to have gone
off with was not mentioned in this
paper.-ED1ToR.

Railway Extension RumOrs.

With the coming of spring each
year there are always rumors of
the extension of the Idaho North
ern north from Emmett.
The rumors this year seem to
have more foundation than those
of previous years, but no verifca-
ton can be secured from the Off
Gals of the road. Nevertheless, it
looks as if there was "something
doing" An Emmett man has been
appointed right-of-way agent and
he is busy negotiating with land
owners between this city and the
upper country for right of way.
Another straw is the recent
formation of a tie company, COM
posed of Nampa and Emmett peo-
pie, and the securing of contract
for nearly a million. Of course,
these ties may be intended for
another road, but it is probable they
are being cut for the Dewey road.
The Idaho Northern Company
has had for a number of years blue
prints showing the route from
Emmett to the Payette lakes, with
the grades and cuts, bridges and
culverts and all necessary details.
These papers, which have laid in a
safe since Colonel Dewey's death,
haye been brought out and the dust
of years wiped off. 1t is reported
that preparations are now being
made to begin work on the oxten-
sion as soon as the weather will
permit Index.
