TAXES NOT DUE UNTIL OCTOBER

~ UR recent contention for the
prompt publication of the laws
~ enacted by the Legislature is
strikinqly emphasized by the mix-up
III the matter OF the date set for the
payment OF county taxes. The GER
t,fied copy OF the law, sent 10 the
Treasurer Office and published in the
local papers, states that taxes would
he due and payable on September Ist,
without discount, and that all taxes
not paid on September Ist would be
gin to bear interest from that date.
The Treasurer, naturally, acted on
this information, and gave public no.
tice accordingly, and people have been
paying their taxes III accordance with
the supposed provision OF the law
But with the arrival this week OF the
published copies Of the Public General
Laws thcts Of 1870 il is discovered
that the section relating to payment
0 taxes says they are due and pay
able on September /, but interest be-
GINS Ia run ony on taxes which are
not paid by October ]. Here is

that lies before them 1t is good
time to come to some definite under
standing as TO the aim and character
of that work, good time for the
conscientious teacher to determine
just what is worth while if the golden
days are going to count for the most
and best in educational history. That
determination must come from the
teachers own intelligence and ambi-
ton No cut and dried curriculum
can provide it. Indeed, the curricu-
lum, as at present constituted, is ra-
ther calculated to hamper than to
help, when it comes to through going
teaching The school program is sad
ly overlooked. We are passing
through period where sane and nor
NAL thinking is replaced by hysteria
and the reign of the fadist. The
school system has suffered along with
the rest Everything is foisted upon
the school curriculum, until the con-
scienlious teacher is driven tol dis
traction, knowing iull well that with
so many things required, no one
thing IS going to be well achieved
the results are giving it proof. The
rudimentS are being neglected in order
to make specialists, with the usual
unhappy consequences. PRIMARY ana
secondary education are not supposed,
by sane th!nK'ag ana ordinary com
mon sense, to turn out experts IN do
mestic science, constitutional Jaw,
eolalhefclal requirements, manual
tra'n'ng and al the rest. In attempt
n1g such an impossible program, our
putiic schools are being led sadly as
tray lhey are not only iailmg to
produce the experts (that would be
lorgiVeabIe)' but they are iaiilng to
emphasize the rud'ments (Which Is
unpardonabLe). we can forgive the
graduates pitliuI exhibition as an
once iorce or professional house
keeper, we never expected the publ
school to 90 much III that llne ard
would great deal rather see 1t aban-
don tae attempt to DO anything. But
one patience is strained severely on
iinding that the bearer OF cum
laude diploma cannot write line OF

ignorance When 1t comes to the SIM

About The Rabies.

Owing to the numerous cases
Of hydrophobia that have appear
ed in Idaho county lately among
the coyotes, and among dogs and
domestic animals bitten by them,
it will be we'll for all of our read
ers to study carefully the follow
ing article on rabies as written
by Veterinary Surgeon W. L.
LabaW, of Lewiston and to keep
close watch on all animals
thought to have been exposed to
the infection or that act at all
peculiar:
Rabies is transmitted from
animal to animal and from ami
NAL to man through wounds that
are inflicted by animals that can
bite. Ruminants could scarcely
be a factor in its spread. Condi-
tions of weather are never a
cause.
"The course of the disease is
divided into four stages. First,
melancholia; second, maniacal;
third, convulsion, and fourths
paralytic. During the first stage
the animal shows a change OF
disposition. He is apt to seek
seclusion and when approached,
iif formerly affectionate, is apt to
be snappish, and dogs of the op-
posite disposition are many times
affectionate. They refuse food
but swallow all sorts of foreign
bodies, such as stones, STICKS
etc.
"The second is the rabid stage,
during which they wander from
home, dropping saliva and biting
every animal that comes within
their reach. The third stage IS
marked by convulsions and the
fourth by paralysis. :,
"There is another form called
d,,roh rabies in which the animals
are not apt to become manlacal
and in the early stages the lower
law becomes paralyzed. These
are practically harmless but will
MANY times try to bite. y

Farmers Buy Warehouse.

The farmers in the vicinity of
Ferdinand recently organized a
stock company to be known as
the Ferdinand Farmers Union

house. The company is capital
lied for $40, 900 and has the fol-

CASES ARE
DISMISSED
U. S. Attorney at Moscow Asks
Court 20 Dismiss Cases Known
as North Idaho Land Frauds---
Gave no Reasons.

A Moscow dispatch dated May
17th says:
The cases widely heralded for
several years "as the north Ida
no land fraud SUITS" wound up
in a heap today when Peyton
Gordon, special U. S. attorney,
moved a dismissal of all pending
indictments.
The first indictments in these
cases were returned in 1905 and
since that time practically every
northern term of court has de-
voted large portion of the time
to consideration of some phase
of the litigation. At the first
trials verdicts of guilty were re-
turned against the defendants,
but these findings were later re-
versed by the higher courts, and
this spring at Boise the defend
ants, VIM. F. Kettenbach, Geo.
H. Kester and VIM. Dwyer, were
acquitted by jury after ten
minutes deliberation. The case
had been taken to Boise for trial,
the defense having shown there
was prejudiced condition a.
gainst them in this district, due
to unfair and libelous statements
published by Spokane and other
newspapers. The original in
dictments against the defendants
were secured at a time when
Norman Ruick, of Boise, was U.
S. attorney for Idaho and Ruel
Rounds was u. S. mars h al /.
These men were later dismissed
from service by President Roose-
welt for abuse of Office in connec-
ton with land cases in the south.
Last November, a new indict-
ment was secured against Kes-
ter, Kettenbach a n d Dwyer,
charging them in association
with A. j. Steffey, with con-
spiracy to defraud the govern
ment. This indictment was Sc
cured through evidence presented
to the grand jury by Attorney
Gordon and assistants. Recently
this case was set for trial to take
place at Boise on June 6. 1t is
among the cases dismissed today,
the others being as follows:
U nited States VS.. George Kes-
ter, subornation of perjury.
United States VS.. VIM. Dwyer,
subornation of perjury.
United States vs.. w. F. Ket-
tenbach, George w. Kester and
VIM. Dwyer, conspiracy.
United States VS.. VIM. Benton,
subornation of perjury.
United States VS.. Joel H. Ben
ton, w. F. Kettenbach and C.
w. Robnett, conspiracy.
In dismissing the indictments
today, Mr.. Gordon made no COM
ment in court.
