This is the age of criticism of
people who have money. They have
been charged with having brought
on this panic. Some of the rich men
of this country, who have been pa
raded in the magazines as people who
are iRordinately rich, put up prac-
tically their entire credit to tide over
possible panic. One man put up 81 :

ASSESS AT
CASH VALUE.
That is the Decision of the Idaho
Assessors at Boise

BOISE. Idaho, Jan. 24.-The
bounty assessors annual meeting
as adjourned yesterday after pas
age of resolutions. Though the as
essors and the state board of equal
cation failed to get together on the
eluding railroads, at the cash valua-
tion, in which the assessors were
supported by Governor Gooding, the
assessors put themselves on record
Dn the subject in their. resolutions:
I'VE favor assessing all taxable
property, of whatever kind or char
acter, at its actual cash value, in or
der that we may comply with the
revenue laws strictly and literally,
hnd in doing so we deem it the duty
|bf every assessor to use all means in
his power to ascertain the actual
humber of live stock as we'll as all
Dther personal property within his
county and the true value thereof;
and we believe that no assessment
whatever should be made thereon at
any per cent whatever less than the
actual number and cash value there
Of
I'VE further recommend and urge
that if the county assessors comply
with the law in assessing all proper
g at it's actual cash value, then and
thereupon it becomes likewise the
duty of the state board of equaliza-
ton to assess all railroads, telegraph
and telephone lines at the actual
cash value thereof, and that the same
should be done in all instances"
Other resolutions favor compulso-
ry attendance of assessors at the
August meeting of the state board of
equalization and changing the consti-
tuition so as to make assessors eligi-
Bile for reelection. Governor Good
ing congratulated them on the prog
ress they had made. State Examiner
Gooslind suggested that assessors
appoint a committee of five to coop
crate with committee of auditors TO
set forth irregularities in the reve-
nue. laws, the report to be submit
ted to the meeting of auditors in
August. Chairman Smith was au-
thorized to name such a committee.

MAY REORGANIZE BAND

The members formerly composing
the Occur d'Alene band have recent
ly been discussing the adyisabillty of
reorganization and for while 1t
looked as though this discussion was
to bear immediate fruit, but they
have apparently decided not to take
any steps in that direction at the
present, but may in the future.
The old band was organized last
spring and the organization contin-
ued until late in the fall-some time
in November. During this period
Professor ]. Austin was the instruct
or of the band and under his leader
ship he made it one of the best bands
in the state. The professor was de-
pendent during this time for renum-
Grafton for his services upon a sub
scription contract entered into with
different citizens and business men
of the town. The amount subscribed
was something like SIS per month
but only about a half OF this was
successfully collected each month,
and the Professor, in order to gain a
livelihood had to depend upon engage
ments for dances and other enter
tainments. During the summer
season there were sufficient of these

BASEBALL ON THE COAST
First Games of Season In CALI
fOFnia.


SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 24.-Col-
lege baseball will make its public
bow for 1908 tomorrow afternoon,
when the festive fans of Stanford
university and the University of Cal
ifornia will gather around their re-
spective diamond to witness the first
games of the season in these United
States of Baseball. Both of CAL
ifornia's big universities have strong
mines and long schedules, and the sea
son of the national sport promises
to be an interesting one.
St. Mary's college win have the
honor of opening the season with
the cardinals of Stanford, while the
Elks viii play the University OF Cal
ifornia nine on the Berkeley campus
tomorrow. The wind-up of the base
ball season will come in April, when
the two institutions will meet in
their annual intercollegiate series,
The first game will be played at
Stanford April and the second at
Berkeley April IL.
The Stanford cardinals will play
two or three games a week for three
months, the schedule arranged by
Manager Krupp providing for twenty
four games, exclusive of those In CAL
ifornia. Trips will be made during
the season to Los Angeles, Oakland
and Santa Clara to play the St. Vim
cents, St. Mary's and Santa Clara
college mines.
The University OF California has
a somewhat shorter schedule, pro-
viding fifteen games, exclusive of
those with Stanford. Manager sned-
igar's nine will also play games at
Los Angeles, Oakland and Santa
Clara, so that the fans will be able
to make an accurate estimate of the
relative strength of the two univer-
sity mines prior to their meeting in
April.
Both Leland Stanford and CAL
ifornia have arranged extensive track
closing with the intercollegiate meet
on April IS. Both institutions will
also hold intercollegiate meets with
the athletes of the University of
Southern California and Pomona
college.

NO NEWS FROM JACK LONDON
Fear That the Well known Writer
Is Lost

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 24.--Great-
est anxiety is felt by the friends and
relatives of Jack London for the
safety of the novelist and his party
and the arrival of the steamer Mari.
posa, due here tomorrow from Lah!.
Tahiti, is hopefully awaited in the
expectation that 1t will bring news
of London. Not since October :
last, when the little power boat
Shark, in which Mr.. and Mrs. Lon
don are touring the world, left. lilo,
Hawaii, has the party been heard
from. The destination of the Shark
was Marquesas island in the South
Pacific, and was expected to reach
that point early In December. Many
weeks have passed with no message
from the distinguished writer and 10
report as to the whereabouts Of the
staunch little vessel which so bravely
weathered the broad expanse Of sea
lying between San Fracisco and Ha-
wall, the first stopping place on the
foolhardy world circuit. If no mes
sage is received by the Mariposa to-
morrow, many of the authors friends
will give him up as lost, a victim of
his own originality and genius.
Many nautical experts are more
hopeful and believe that the Shark
would be able to outride any ordi-
nary storm. 1t is considered that
the vessel has been delayed by some
damage to it's machinery or its gas
oline engine. which furnished the
motive power, and that 1t may now
be drifting about the South Pacific,
or that the wayfarers have been
forced to land on some uninhabited
island. The Shark was equipped
with a gasoline engine of rs horse
power, with which she was able to
make ten knots an hour.
Jack London, with Mrs. London,
Captain Eames, his wife's uncle;
Martin Johnson of Independence,
Kan, a Japanese cabin boy and a
Chinese cook sailed from here on the
little Shark on May 4, 1907. The
Shark carried 1000 gallons of gas
oline, to last 1000 miles, and this
supply was replenished in Hawaii
Mariners believe that the little yes
sci may have been carried out of
its way by the terrific gales now pre-
valent in the Pacific, and that it is
yet too early to give it up as lost.

New Ruling Hits Some Publications
Hard
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-Scores
of protests are pouring into the post
office department, demanding a re-
vision of the new rulings regulating
the mailing of newspapers and period
icals. Prominent publishers all over
the country are interested in the mat
ter, but the country papers are most
seriously affected, since under the
ruling they can mail papers at second
class rate only to those whose sub
scriptions have been paid within a
year. The executive committee of
the National Editorial association will
meet here Monday to consider the
question, and to make arrangements
for the coming convention in ST
Paul.

Stone of Missouri presented statis-
Pics of government deposits in ma

Senator Teller upon conclusion of

ieved the recent financial trouble
had resulted from the banking sys-
tenn of the country and had not
grown out of the administration of
law. 1T is possible, he said, that
the treasury department did not dis
tribute the money in proportion eth
er to the banking capital or popula-
ton, but there was one storm center
of the whole trouble We did not
need any money in the west. Colo
RADIO did not need money, although
1t is stated that Colorado had s11.-

selves considered the ACCESSIBILITY Of

formed independent, and II they de-
cided to launch IL at all, it will be no
doubt upon such a basis. Occur d.

that IL Is purely a social organiza-
ton, but there are those who enter
tain doubts as 10 this and insinuate
that fits principal object is TO expe-
dite matrimonial alliances. 1t Is also
said. and there seems 70 exist some
measure Of a foundation for this
rumor, that as soon as a member OF
the club contracts the bonds OF mat
rimony, the membership ceases. Il
Is also said by those who claim 70 be
more or less conyersant with the az
fairs OF the club that besides the en-
gagement announced there are nine
other engagements that win soon
follow. and 1t is predicted that when
the June brides are counted the club
win have completely disbanded for
