JUDGE LANGAN
Will resign
NOVEMBER d

The Carson City News of Sunday
morning says: While in this city
yesterday Judge Frank P. Langan,
judge of the first judicial district of
Nevada, announced that he would re-
sign as Judge of the district on No
vember 18th, after election, in order
that the division planned by the last
legislature could become effective.
Owing to the great volume of court
work in the district, which is COM
posed of Esmeralda, Ormsby, Doug
las, Storey and Lyon counties the last
legislature passed an act providing
for the division of the district in two,
making Esmeralda q district alone
and the remaining counties consti-
tuting another district. The act was
to become effective whenever Judge
Langan, the incumbent, resigned OF
retired from the place as Judge, but
that jurist, not caring to go through
another campaign this year, and hav
ing been elected for a period of foul
years, declined to resign until aftel
the present election Now he an
Rounces that he will resign on No
vember Is and that the separation o
the district may then occur.

The Booth
Will Soon
Be Shipping

The Booth, at Goldfield, will soon
get into the shipping list. This prop
erty is along the trend of the big ore
bodies that have been opened up
along the famous Mohawk lode that
is destined to produce more gold and
silver values than the famous Com
stock veins.
A little ore has been shipped from
the Booth and judging from the ap-
pearance of the quartz that was taken
out yesterday at the 400-foot level
pay ore has already been found. The
lessees ON the ground are Tom D.
Murphy, John P. Sweeney, Jack
Hennessy and George Durgan. All
are old time mining men of the camp
and successful ones. This work is
being done in the main company
shaft. Drifting and prosecuting will
be started at once. The drift is or
ore and the crosscut will be to find
out if there are other shoots in the
block of ground.

Among other things Mr.. Perky
said: "The banks demand security
of their borrowers, why not the
depositors demand security from
the banks, What objections can
a fair minded man have to this. :"
He stated that tbs past failures of
national banks showed that it
would have cost but one fortieth
OF one per cent to have insured the
depositors against loss. The falla-
cies of the tariff were we'll shown
up by the speaker and quotation
taken from the republican platform
OF this state several years ago was
an admission of that party that the
tariff was considered the father Of
Of the trusts and the consequent
hard times.
Messrs. Stockslager and Perky,
like other democratic speakers Of
this fall:are not dealing in flights
of oratory or looking upon the
people-as ignorant enough to take
for granted whatever is uttered
from the rostrum. they are con
sidering the people as of equal
intelligence. Democracy has moth
ing to hide, no skeletons in the
closet, she need not indulge in
personalities or mud singing, facts,
cold hard facts, that's what yor
hear from the democratic sources,
Ii the claims of extravagance are
not true, If Idaho's democracy is
misrepresenting, why do not the
republican speakers show the
errors? Why do they speak only
of national question, the tariff, a
panic il Bryan is elected, why not
consider the people as able to think
for themselves and discuss that
which is Of vital interest? Why
did not Senator Hepburn say he
favored the direct primary, what
was the reason Miles johnson said
nothing? Let us have an explana-
tion of the reason why the last
legislature refused to carry out
fifty eight per cent of the republi-
can state platform.

A LARGE MEETING.
Big Crowd at Democratic
Meeting Saturday Night.
STOCkSLAGER AND PERKY
Show Up State ExtravaganCe
Discuss National Issues.

Judge c. 0. Stockslager of Blaine
County and X. l. Perky, of Boise
addressed one of the largest audi
ences of voters Grangeville has
turned out this fall, Saturday night.
The first speaker Ju lge Stockslager,
who is one of Idaho's best
known public men and man who
made reputation while on the
supreme bench of this state, was
introduced by Judge Vineyard.
In three quarter hour speech he
produced fact after fact supported
by figures from the state house,
showing the enormous increase in
the taxes of this state and showed
up the extravaganza of the present t
and past republican administra-
tions. People of Idaho county
have been pretty we'll fleeced dur
ing the last several years and con-
sequently the manner in which the
state official disperse with free
hand the funds collected from the
various counties was of much in
terest.
The Judge handled the matter
without gloves and the figures
which he read from the records re-
garding the increase and the man
ner in which the state affairs are
being conducted were startling and
will answer part Of the question Of
why your taxes have been increased
and increased until now one might
almost as we'll turn his property
over to the state and run for office.
Hon. K. l. Perky, who followed
on national issues, is we'll in
formed speaker and for an hour
gave a thorough analysis of the
democratic platform. Deposit guar
antee as advocated by the demo-
Gratis was explained and illustra
tions OF it in actual working were
referred to.

Are Assessing Postmasters.
In addition to levying tribute
upon the state officials, it appears
that the Republican managers for
Idaho have assessed the federal
officials even down to the post
masters of villages. 1t all goes in
the effort to build up Brady
machine:
James Mcmillan, assessor and
tax collector Of Twin Falls county,
and member of the Republican
state central committee, has failed
ignominsously in an effort to col
lect a tax from certain postmaster
within his jurisdiction. The tax
was levied by the Republican state
central committe and was excessive
in the extreme. A letter was pro.
duced purporting to come from
Republican headquarters at Boise,
and demanding one tenth of the
paltry salary of the village post.
master as his donation to the Re-
publican campaign fund. Mr..
Postmaster was naturally indignant
at such request and his denuncia-
tion of the brazen political holdup
was 80 loud that bystanders heard
the major part of the conversation.
Mr.. Mcmillan was simply perform-
ing duty which had been assigned
to it by the national organization.
The edict has gone forth and it was
obeyed by the Captain of the
Gang" The facts in connection
with this matter cannot be ques-
toned. They can be verified by
creditable witnesses. 1t thus ap.
pears from the facts stated above
that the Republican organization is
extracting from every federal
official one tenth of his salary as
blood money for the privilege of
holding a government job. Even
the village postmaster does not es-
cape the eagle eye of the party
boss. Each appointee must con-
tribute portion of his earnings to-
ward the election of Mr.. Taft and
the Republican state ticket. Each
appointee must humbly bow his
head and place his tithing upon
the Republican altar in token of
his humble submission to the die.

Republican Commissioners served from
January, 1905 to January, 1909.
Total amount of money spent
during four years in power. S271,S4173
BY the simple method Of subtrac-
tion we find that the last four years
of republican rule in Idaho county
has cost $42,OO7. SO more than the
previous four years of democratic
rule.
We desire to state that the expenses of
the remaining three months of republican
rule, which we have included in the above,
we have estimated at $4,000 which we be.
lieve is fair as the past records show the
amount spent under republican rule in times
OF election was $2o,2 90 and under demo
cratic rule in times of election was$Io,8oo.
RECEIPTS
From 1901 to 1905 Idaho county was un.
der democratic board of commissioners,
these commissioners met once each year
and set the tax levy. They determine the
amount of taxes necessary to conduct the
affairs of the county The board has it alb.
solutely within its power to say what tax
payers shall contribute to the county
treasury. Here is the assessed valuation,
the total revenue collected, the amount paid
to the state and the amount used in the
county during four years of democratic
administration.

Of this amount there was paid

OF this amount there was

BY the simple method Of subtraction
we find four years of republican rule
in Idaho county has resulted in the
assessed value Of Idaho county proper
ty being raised $3,1O4,189.66 above
that Of the previous four years of
democratic rule. Also the republi-
oaus have . collected $73,46l11 more
revenue than the democrats; that
they have had and used $35,e13. ~
more revenue in the county than the
democrats and now let us turn to the
Indebtedness, it should be less but is
it?
WARRANTS OUTSTANDING
Amount of warrants
outstanding at close of four
years Of democratic rule ;. .$34,s3I.Is
Amount Of warrants outstanding
under present republican rule
todate ........... $4,000. 90
Thus it will be seen that while the
republicans are collecting much more
revenue than the democrats the pres
ent debt Of the county as shown by
records is $48,99575 greater than
during the four years Of democratic
administration.
CONCLUSION
Conclusion must be arrived at by com
pairing these figures which are tax en- from
the records of the county. If any mistake
occurs in this article we would like tc
have it pointed out and will gladly correct
the same.
Four years of republican admins
tration in Idaho county has resulted
in an increased expenditure, o:
