Auction Sale Method For 5 ,.
aiaHl o. Carey Act Project.

Men interestedin Carey act projects
are awaiting with interest the out
come of a new method of disposing Of
these lands. Hitherto the settled
practise has been to have what has
come to be known as an opening, at
which the element Of chance figured
largely. At an opening the last man
to register might easily secure first
chance and enter the best piece of
land on the tract 10 be disposed of.
The American Falls Canal and
Power company is going to try the
auction sale method. This company
has the original Carey act project in
Idaho. Originally about 10000 acres
of land was segregated in this project.
The company never had an opening.
Instead the land and water were dis
posed of privately. All of the land,
hitherto open to entry, has been sold
and much of it has been under culti-
walton for a number of years. Nearly
10, 900 acres, however, remain unsold,
and as the canal system is to be turn
ed over to the farmers in few weeks
the company is anxious to close up
the project. In consequences they
have determined on an auction sale
which will be held at Springfield,
near Blackfoot, Idaho, on Oct. "a.
Under the law they will not be per-
mitted to charge more than $4,000 for
the land and water. If the sale is
successful, it is believed that this
method may come into general use
as a means of handling Carey act
projects. If it isn't success the
American Falls Canal and Power
company stands TO sell some perpet-
pal water rights at a much lower
price than the state board of land
commissioners has decided them to
be worth Most of the land, it is said,
| is of the standard Snake River valley
quality. The tract is close to Black
foot and, the promoters say, can be
made as productive as the higher
priced land there.

FRAME DRASTIC
TAX MEASURE
G. o. P. Men Prepare
Bill That Is Very
Radical.
COM MISSION PLANNED

Columbus, o., Jan. 5.-The Repub-
iican leaders are preparing to pass a
tax commission measure during the
present session which will equal IL
not surpassed as a bit of drastic leg
islation any of the tax reforms ad-
vocated by Governor Harmon. The
bill embodying the ideas of Speaker
Mooney and the other Republican
leaders On the tax question will be
completed for Introduction within a
week,
1t will provide for the assessment
of capitalized franchise value in pub
lie service corporations, the abolition
of all state and local tax boards and
the delegation of state wide powers
of taxation to a commission of three
members.
The new tax commission bill will
abolish every board of state and
county officers that now has anything
to do with levying taxes on corpora
tions, and concentrate in the hands
of three commissioners the functions
that are now performed by literally
hundreds of these boards, if every
combination of county auditors to as
sess the property of railroad, tele-
graph and telephone lines is counted.
The three commissioners, to be ap-
pointed by the governor, not more
than two of them are to belong to
the same political party, are to re-
ceive salaries of at least $4,000 year.

"The Girl Question"

While t".The Girl Question" was not
entirely settled at the Grand, last night
those who saw the production have diff
ferent ideas about the question now.
Especially concerning the musical part
of the question"
Adams, Hough and Howard, authors
of "The Time, Place aud the Girl"
"The Honeymoon Trail" and other mu'
sical plays, hit a responsive chord III
"The Girl Question" and pleased the
audience at the Grand.
There is heart interest story in.
terwoven among the many musIcaI
numbers of the piece, making it all the
more enjoyable. The plot is not intIi-
cate in the least but is interesting new
eftheless. The musical numbers are
good. Ned Wayburn has directed the
staging Of the play and that insures
many unique and pleasing qualities.
Willie Dunday, as the fun maker OF
the piece, did all that was expected.
His appearance was the signal for
some thing doing in the merriment
line. He WAS ably assisted by a chorus
and good singing.
Lille Logan added an attractive
personality to her excellent voice and
pleased her audience.
The scene is laid in a Chicago res
taurant at the noon hour of a fall day
Later the restaurant is converted in

EXAMINER JACKSON WAS A
LUCKY, LUCKY MAN
Narrowly Escaped Being Locked
Up in Mistake For
a ProWler.

State Examiner Jackson, who has
been in the city since December /, en-
gagged in checking up the books and
accounts of the different departments
of the city, had a narrow escape from
being locked up for the night in the
city prison.
Jackson, anxious to complete his
work in the city, remained in the
council chamber until after 1880
o'clock Tuesday night. When he went
to leave the building he found all
doors closed leading to the outside.
He went down the rear steps and
finally landed in the police station.
He started to walk toward the out
side door when Turnkey Wilhelm
spied him.
Hold on, there" shouted Wilhelm.
where are you going and what are
you doing around here at this time
of the night?'
Jackson turned all colors of the
rainbow and explained who he was,
saying that he was checking up ac-
counts. Wilhelm had never seen the
man before, but accepted his expla-
nation and allowed him to go.
1T might have been a rich one on
me-" said Jackson Wednesday, 'if the
man down there had not believed my
story, for I would have had no way
OF identifying myself"
