name OF conservation system OF
bureaucracy which has absorbed up
to the present time, nearly one-half
of the area of the state. The situa-
ton calls for the cooperation OF all
our citizens in an effort to restore
local self-government and reasonable
use of our resources. To promote
this object the legislature should
take a forward step by making com
prehensive provision for state ad-
ministratiOn OF natural resources,
as far as the same are or may
become within our jurisdiction.
This will lay the foundation for the
future restoration OF state control,
for which we will ever contend. We
pledge our candidates for the legisla-
ture to the support OF such state con-
SeryatiOn laws

Good Roads

We favor good roads and COM
mend the liberal appropriations
made by our present board of county
commissioners for that purpose. We
direct attention to the fact that the
present board, on assuming office,
found a warrant Indebtedness OF
about $21 200; that, while this deficit
has been increased by about $4,000,
this increase was necessary in order
to make certain public highways
passable after the disastrous floods
last spring.

Farmers

Believing the interests OF the farm
ers to be. the interests of the county,
we pledge our candidates to a loyal
support and enforcement of all the
laws now on the statute books tend
ing to protect the farm, upbuild the
rural home and maintain and i'm
prove the common schools.
We favor the enactment OF legisla-
ton which will enable farmers and
other property owners to invoke the
protection of the law to prevent per-
sons from trespassing upon private
property and to punish those who
do so, and we pledge our candidates
to the Legislature to work and vote
for such legislation.

TO TRY POSTAL BANKS

Wasnington-The board of trustees
of the Postal Savings Bank system has
approved a list of 4S second class
postoffices at which the plan will re-
ceive first trial. Owing to the small
ness of this appropriation, it has been
impossible to establish postal savings
banks the first year in the large cities
The offices designated include Occur

and Olympia, Washington.

Changes in the personel OF officials

held that office for eight consecutive
years. The Democratic nominee for
that office, Ruth w. BrOman, prom

University

We regard the University of Idaho
as the most important and the
highest educational institution of
the state and we pledge our )egisla-
tive candidates to use all honorable
efforts to obtain liberal appropria-
lions for it's main tainance. One
strong institution being more eff

two or more weak ones, we are OPP

FEDERAL TAXES ARE
EvADED BY INTERESTS
Income Compared With Earn
IngS Indicates Profits Are
Concealed.

New York-A nationwide scandal
may result from the manner in which
the corporation tax Law, has worked
out. With the official announcement
by the treasury department at Wash
lngton that the total amount paid in
as result of the tax is only trifle
more than $27,O00,OOO, Wall street fin
anciers are convinced that an ex-
tremely clever job in hiding profits
has been carried out by somebody.
This Federal tax is 1 per cent OF
the net yearly incomes of all corpor-
atoms from all sources over and above
$4,000, exclusive of all amounts re-
ceived as dividends on the stock of
other corporations subject to the tax.
The two biggest concerns in the
country, the Standard Oil company
and the United States Steel corpora
ton, have paid into the government
more than $4,000, or about one-thir-
tenth of the entire tax
The big railroads alone should have
paid in as much as the total tax re.
ceipts amounted to, in the opinion oil
financial experts, and there is wonder
ment as to why the receipts from this
source should be so small. The gen
eral belief is that the "big fry" corpor
atoms have so formulated their earn
lngs as to show an apparent defici
for tax purposes.

Lena Irwin Poyfair

We charge the present superinten-
dent of schools of Latah county with
incompetency and neglect OF duty;
also that she has recommended
worthless supplies to the various
districts.
We pledge our nominee for the
Office OF superintendent OF schools,
Lena Irwin POyfair, to visit the
schools at least once each year and
we promise the people a system OF
public education that will correct
the deficiencies which the republican
superintendent admit they have not
been able to accomplish.

Cary B. Hammond

Believing that honesty and ability
are necessary in the office OF assessor
and tex collector, we call attention
to the efficient record of our nominee.
Cary B. Hammond, who while asses.
sor in 1894 to 1896, originated the
system OF carbon copies OF all receipts
for taxes, which custom was after
wards enacted into law and is now
used all over the state of Idaho.

Prohibition

We favor statewide prohibition of
the manufacture and sale OF intoxi-
eating liquor within the state OF
Idaho by the most efficient means
possible.
We pledge our legislative candi-
dates to put forth every honorable
effort to bring about the passage of
II legislative enactment prohibiting
the manufacture and sale of intOXi-
eating liquors within the state of
Idaho. We furthermore pledge our
legislative candidates to put forth
every honorable effort to bring about
the passage of Joint resolution sub
hitting to the voters of the state a
constitutional amendment to pro-
hibit the manufacture and sale of
Intoxicating liquors throughout the
state OF Idaho. Should the above
mentioned legislation not be obtain
able then we pledge our Legislative
candidates to support the cOutinu-
ance OF the present local option law
with Il strict enforcement OF the same.
We pledge our candidates for pros
ecuting attorney and sheriff, and eX-
hort all citizens, both public and
private to a strict and conscientious
enforcement OF all laws.
We pledge our candidates for the
office OF county commissioner to con-
tinue the present democratic policy
with respect to the liquor traffic,
which means that during their term
OF office no saloon license will be
granted in Latah county, and we
direct the attention of the voters OF
the county to the fact that the pres.
ent democratic board OF county com.
missioners, in order to save the tax
payers from the heavy expense OF a
useless election under the loca
option law, acted under a law which
had been on the statute books o.
Idaho for many years, and closed

as they, through their respective
boards of county commissioners, see
fit to destroy predatory animals
within their borders.
