A NEW DOG LAW.
May Be Enacted by The Present Leg.

The dog law is to be changed in
that it is proposed to register
and tax all dogs, requiring a fee

fees to be paid at the time of reg.

must be tagged and kept under
control same as other live stock.
A fee of 81 per head will be
paid by the state to some authori-

dogs thus not registered.
This movement is beng push

PLAN NEW NORTHWEST STATE.
By Uniting Counties OF Idaho, Wash
ington and Oregon.

Residents all over eastern and
central Washington, ort h e r n
Idaho and northeastern Oregon
are evlncing interest in the pro
posal to create a new State by
taking twenty six counties, with
a population of 400, 900, in the ter
ritory bounded on the west by
the Cascade range, on the east
by the Bitter Root Mountains, on
the north by the international
boundary and on the south by
the Blue Mountains. Judging
by The hearty support accorded,
there is reasonable prospect that
the project will be clrried out
successfully.
The proposed action to create
the new State by taking parts of
three adjoining Commonwealths
is without a precedent in the his
tory of the nation. Prominent
lawyers in the Northwest declare
that provision is made in the Con.
stltution of the United States for
the creation of new States, and
they point to section 3, article l,
as the method Of procedure. The
text follows
"New Stltes may be admitted
by Congress into the Union, but
no new State shall be formed or
erected within the jurisdiction of
any other State, nor any State be
formed by the junction of two or
more States or parts. If States
without the consent of the Legis-
Iatures of the States concerned,
as well as of the Congress.

Hints About Eggs.

The tresher eggs are, the long
er time they require tor boiling.
In timing the boiling remember
that they should be put into wa
ter already boiling IN the same
pan or skillet.
TO boil them very hard IN order
to slice them or prepare them for
a mayonnaise they should cook
for ten minutes. For eating, the
soft boiled egg is supposed to be
the most digestible, aud this is
boiled for from three to fl 70 min.

One OF the best ways to Judge
the freshness of eggs IS to place
them N a pan of cold water.
Those that sink soonest are the
freshest. Stale or added eggs

breahing an egg If the white and
yolk are not clearly defined and
separated, no matter how care.

Mr.. Daniels was a natural. oorn

and after having taught several
terms in the schools of the Couu-

Hon. John p. Sipes, and was ad-

October 10, 1891. He served as
Clerk to the Com missloners, and
was three times elected to the of.
flee of District Attorney, serving
continuously IN that office from
1897 until the time of his death.
He took an active interest IN
politics, served several years as
County Chairman of the Demo

County in several Democratic
State Conventions.
