WILL FIGHT SPECIAL TAX LAW.
Said to Be Opposed by Farmers COM
panieS

Said to Be Opposed by Farmers Com
Panies.
Hon. Theodore Turner of Bancroft,
Bannock county, is spending the day
in the city on business, says the Boise
Capital News.
Mr.. Turner states that the farmers
of his section are going to contest In
the courts the enforcement of the
law, House Bill No. 1873, passed at the
last session of the legislature provid-
ing for the payment of an annual Ii
cense tax by all corporations except
a few which were exempted by the
law.
He said that many small irrigation
companies had to be formed in his
part of the state for the purpose of
getting water on the land. The stock
in these companies is all owned by
the formers who, for the most part,
paid the amount of the stock by way
of work on the canals.
The streams in that section are
small and are so located that a few
ranch owners by going in together,
could get water upon the land, while
without such organization the water
never could be used, the individual
rancher being too poor to take the
water out, build the canals and cul-
tlvate his soil and the projects are
too small to warrant any men of cap
ital to take hold of them.
These poor men, in order to make
their land productive and in order TO
build up homes for themselves, form
cd small stock companies. They were
formed to pay large incorporation
fee at the time, and they have to pay
taxes on the land which is made val
liable only because of their own ef-
forts in this direction, and now they
| thing il a decided hardship that the
state should ask them to pay an an
nual license tax besides.
"Tie various rich insurance COM
ranies are exempted from the tax, so
are the rich bonding companies who
were fortunate enough to have agents
in the Legislature" said Mr. Turner,
and the mining companies were able
to have their interests looked after
so that the corporations of that kind
do not have to pay the tax unless they
have productive property"
The injustice of the law was also
pointed out in the case of fair as
sncia;ions, which are stock COM
panies, organized for public benefit,
Init which never expect to make any
profit to the holders of stock. They
will have to pay on the full authoriz-
ed capital whether 1t has ever been
Subscribed or not.
Mr.. Turner says, the farmers of
Bannock county are very bitter on
account of the law. He says they can
mot see why the farmers OF the north,
upon whose land God lets the rain
fall, should be more favored by the
legislature In the matter OF taxation
than the farmer of the south, who
has reclaimed a home from the des-
ert and has made acres of land fer
tile, which without his effort, would
have lever been productive.
They do not believe the law is con-
stitutional and test case will be
made to have IL set aside

10" tons of freight and twenty pas
sengers, landing here at $40. Un-
loading her passengers and about half
OF her freight, as well as taking on
some. she started for the Big Eddy.
A little apprehension was felt, as
she IS the only boat that has tackled
mo trip at the present stage of the
river, but she made it by 7:15 in
good shape. remaining over at the
portage until this morning. CAPTAIN
Ccer says he had no trouble what
ever.
TIE Relief is now on the upper riy.
er ready to receive the freight and
transport it to points on the upper
river. During the next week or two
the Relief will go no further than
'matiila, but soon as matters can be
so arranged another craft will be
added to the fleet. When this has
been done the line will extend to
Lewiston.
IL is probable the steamer Norma
Will be engaged by the company TO
assist the relief. Her charter 10 tho

Brief City News
MINeas ARRIvlNe IN cnY.

On almost every train arriving sn the city each day are miners coming to the district to secure work. These men come from Cripple Creek and other points in Colorado, from the Copper Country, and many from as far north as Montana. Almost in- yariably the men are met at the de- pot by union pickets, who immediate ly urge them not to go to work. Most of the men have been members of the Western Federation of Miners at some time, and have taken paIG Ill the various disputes of the organiza- ton. Although they listen to the arguments of the pickets, the con yersation is usually ended by a re mark on the part of the new arriyai to the effect that great many men seem to be working. and the black list argument Is looked upon as a sub terfuge to get recruits to the organi- zatiop.
