After Miles Johnson had explain
ed very nicely in his speech here
last week how the taxes in this
county had been lowered for state
and county purposes from S2.57 to
S2.20 on the hundred, Mark Hard
ing inquired of him about the valu-
alton Mr.. johnson finally admit
ted that the value Of farm land has
been raised 5s per cent during the
past year and that the rate had only
been jobbed BY some 0f the people
in the south part Of the state. But
the fact that We hays been jobbed by
some one does net make the taxes
any less or easier 10 pay.
Nezperce prairie is endebted to A.
c. Eitzen, who took fourteen prizes
at the Lewiston-Clarkston fair and
would have taken twelve more prem
iums had he larger quantities in his
samples as was required by the as
sociation's rules on exhibits, a GER
tain amount being necessary. The
qualities of his samples excelled all
others. The following is a list of
the premiums won by Mr.. Eitzen:
Wheat = Canadian Hyberia 1st.
40 Fold 1st, Bearded Arcadia 1st,
Sonora End, Montana Deal 1st,
White Lilly lst, White Winter
Barley lst, oats ist, alfalfa End,
Alsike clover lst, Bromus grass
2nd, Kentucky blue grass 1st, fax
lst. These samples which secured
the above prizes we're gathered by
Mr.. Eitzen near Nezperce and with
out them Nez Perce county would
have lost the silver cup.
]. B. West, of Lewiston, spoke
to a good sized audience at Wilson's
hall last night on the issues of this
campaign. Mr.. West has been and
still claims to be republican but
his talk was directed principally
against the extravaganza of the state
administration and against the re-
publican Legislative ticket, speaking
in particular against J. L. Good
night, for state senator and Chas c.
Miles and R. J. Anderson for rep
resentatives. He made a severe
attack on State Treasurer Hastings
in regard to his way of handling the
state money and contended that
there should be laws to allow the
state money TO be loaned to farmers
at a lower rate Of interest and ad-
the election of democratic
members of the legislature for this
purpose as the republican members
in the past had failed to do this. He
then said if the democrats did not
give US that law We should all join
hands two years from now and try
some one else.

A Mistaken Idea Corrected

As report is in circulation to the
effect that have and am at the
present time buying grain for ]. P
vollmer and other firms, I wish tc
make the following statement; ]
never have been identified with Mr..
vollmer or any other person in the
buying of grain. From 1896 until
1900 l was employed as foreman Of
Mr.. vollmer's ranches, besides
managing my own farm. Since
1900 I have been living on my 24o-
acre farm on the Rimrock north Of
Lewiston, busily engaged, the same
as all farmers in my work there,
and have not been employed by or
identified with any person or firm
elsewhere. J. L. Goodnight.

Chas. c. Miles.
The above Is an extract from a
letter which vas written by Mr..
Miles last Friday and was addressed
TO a party here and the letter Is now
In possession Of the Herald. Any
one can see the same who has any
doubt about Il being an exact copy
OF the letter In so far as Il relates TO
questions or issues Of the campaign.
The letter is in reality self explana-
tory and shows what sort Of people
VIC have been sending down to Boise
to make laws In the interest Of the
people. Instead Of doing what the
people want done and trying 10 help
those who elected them they make a
great prctense OF so doing. but, as
can be seen from this letter, they do
something to further their own in
terest at the expense Of the farmer
and taxpayer and then come back
telling these same people what they
have done for them. and when they
see the other fellow Il is an entirely
different story as they tell them their
true intent and let them know In
reality their purpose in introducing
or voting for bills. Mr.. Miles In
timates that he knew at the time
that the bill would be imperative and
Il appears from the letter that they
intended to fool the people and that
they we're In reality working with
the grain companieswho we're oppos-
ed to this bill Mr.. Goodnight was

Tor light hair denotes affection and
dark hair constancy. A person with
out hair is not devoid of character;
far from it. The disposition of the

such solcitude for the welfare of

one Of the bottom tier, exploded. The
break was less than six inches In
length. There raj no wreckage but
the explosion was described by the
survivors as frightful. SO great was
the blast OF SCOT and steam that every
mar in the DON was blackened from
head to foot while those closest to
the break were literally cooked alive.
There are 16 similar fire rooms but
each separated by steel doors and
the men In adjoining compartments
did not feel the explosion. When the
first outside rescuers entered the
fire 1t was in utter darkness,
the steam and SCOT covering the cleo
trio lights and ceiling and walls with
a thick coat. The men in this fire
pit worked naked except for short
trousers and slippers and the dead
and injured were blackened almost
beyond recognition.
1t Was a Hell Hole.
"It was a hell hole" said one of
the survivors. Everything seemed
all right when, without any warning,
the shower of hot cinders, steam and
ashes burst out Of the fire hole. The
boys dropped all over the room.
None of is knew what had hap
pened. Those Of us who were able to
scrambled to our feet opened the
door and when the compartment
cleared we began dragging the boys
out"
The impression among the officers
and crew is that Reinhold and Meek
were martyrs to duty, for they we're
found dead where others escaped and
stayed at their posts to the last. The
accident served to demonstrate the
complete efficiency of the naval fire
drill. There was no confusion.
DR.. w. A. Weldon, marine surgeon
at San Pedro, has been ordered to
bring eight of the most seriously
wounded to the marine hospital at
Los Angeles hospital, leaving here at
s a. m. tomorrow. The men will be
carried each on a separate cot, the
Pacific Electric company furnishing q
baggage car for the men. \
The six dead sailors will be buried
with simple naval ceremonies at 2
o'clock tomorrow afternoon at Point
Fermin, overlooking San Pedro har-
Dor in a cemetery where only sailor
dead are inferred.

fire insurance rates on property in
this city by the State Board of Fire
Insurance Underwriters Of the Pacific
and became effective June /. Those
who insured their property against
fire since April l are also benefited
by the new rates, copies Of which
were received by insurance agents in
this city yesterday.
By the readjustment Of the insur.
ance charges, property holders in
Billings can insure their property for
from 90 to 25 per cent less than could
have been done prior to April 1. Resi-
dences and business houses are both
effected by the change.
Most Buildings Affected.
The minimum rate which has here
tofore been 81 has been reduced to rs
cents. Rates on residences and well
constructed business blocks receive
the largest reductions while ware.
houses r also given better insur-
ance charges, although not Of such a
wide margin as the former class of
structures. Warehouse rate reduc.
tons vary according to the class Of
articles stored, charges on several
classes being ~lessened more than
others. Lumber yards and other
places where infammable goods are
kept are benefited little II any BY the
readjusted rates.
Farm property in the vicinity of
Billings Is also benefited by the
change'o of insurance charges. Country
residences are insured for the same
charges as those similarly construct.
ed IN the city, while stable, barn and
haystack insurance Is considerably
less than before.
Changes Expected.
Such reductions as will now be put
into force have been anticipated by
local insurance agents for some time
as 1t was known that the board Of un-
derwriters was contemplating a
change in rates for this city and ad.
jacent, country. A member Of the
board visited the city some time IN
January and thoroughly inspected the
buildings with regard to general con
s~truction and standard Of materials
used to prevent fire. He also investi.
gated the efficiency Of the Billings
fire department as to its value in ex-
tinguishing fires.
