after a brief illness with typhoid

Charlie Hughart was one of the
best known and most popular con-
ductors on the Short Line. He had
been in the service of the company
for about 81 years, beginning as a
a brakeman. In due time he was
promoted to freight conductor and
later to passenger conductor. Al
the time of his death he held the of.

was the democratic candidate for

35 votes.
The main ground upon which the
contest is instituted is set forth in
paragraph four of the complaint,
aud is as follows: "That at the
time of said election, to wit: the
eighth day of November, 1910, the
said contestee, VIM. Higgins, was
not eligible to the Office of prosecut.

ARNEY GETS HIS
DATA MIXED

G. E. frn y, who writes political
and other kinds of .'dope" for the
Salt Lake Tribune, occasionally gets
his data mixed regarding Idaho mat
ters. A noticeable incident of this
kind occurred in a recent article in
which Arney reviewed the person
mel of the senate in the forth.eom-
ing session of the Legislature. In
speaking of Senator Pugmlre, he
says:
''Senator Pugmire reelected from
Bear Lake county is democrat.
lie represented Bear Lake county
several times in the senate. He is
the president Of the Bear Lake stake
of Zion, having succeeded the ven
erable William Bulge in this place
of honor in his church.
We would advise Mr.. Arney to
brush up little on church history
in Idaho. For his information we
will state that Senator Pugmire Is
BISHOP of St. Charles ward, instead
of president of the Bear Lake Stake.
"This place of honor" is filled at
present and no doubt will be for
some years TO come by J. R. Sh p

est and cleanest men in the state
and man whom the Examiner
hopes will some day be called 10 re-

that the tax burdet is tal g up-

ssIdaho needs a tax commission
free from bias the of political pull;
commission that will not change

taxation is too much at the mercy
of politIce. The state board of
equalization, the county boards and
the several tax assessors are more or
less influenced by the political as
pect of the questions before them.
And this has not been helped by the
passing of the constitutional amend
ment which allows the county as
SCISSOR to succeed himself.
"One of the reforms that Govern
or-elect Woodrow Wilson has prom
ised in New Jersey is reform of
its tax laws rnd these reforms are
projected along most modern lines

this proposal was one Of the most

'rhe Examiner is glad to see that
the press Of the state is calling the
attention of the legislators.elect to
the question of taxation and the
need of revising Idaho's revenue
laws. Every member of the legisla-
ture should give this question seri-
GUS consideration from now until
the legislature convenes, in order
that intelligent action can be taken
upon it when the proper time comes.
They should acqnaint themselves
with the revenue llws of other
states and endeavor to embody the
best features therefrom into law
for Idaho. In discussing this lues-
tion the Wallace Press says:
"If some of our legislators would
concern themselves abont needed tax
reforms in Idaho they would come
nearer serving their constituents
Idaho is half century behind in it's
methods of taxation and progress
i've movement is needed along these
lines. The tax rate in Idaho is
high and the valuations are low. 1t
is apparent that great deal of pro-
perty in the state is escaping tax
alton and the burdens of the state
are not equitably distributed.
"The annual meetings of the state
board of equalization show what a
confused tumble originates from
lack of system and uniformity. The
assessor in each of the 90 counties
of the state is law unto himself
and from the returns it would seem
that his desire is to fix the esti-
mates of value at such figure al
will give his county the smallest
possible burden of the state tax

burden he is adding for county
taxes, because high tax rate is 3

Burglars entered Sam Lewis

themselves TO something over a
dozen suits of clothes and all the

goods taken but estimates that it
will amount to over $500.9 He

place most of the jewelry in the
safe at night, but for several nights

this. Among the jewelry were a
number of high grade Elgin watch
es, and quite a large stock of good
rings, bracelets, etc. The burglars
were also particular to pick out
some of the best suits in the house.
Entrance TO the store was gained
by cutting a panel out of the real
