LAND BOARD SCANDAL.

For some time rumors of a scan
dalous nature have been sitting
through political circles to the public
regarding the state. land board and It's
methods of handling irrigation prof.
ects under the Carey act. One OF the
most persistent OF these rumors has
been with regard to the prices that
have been charged In connection with
the disposal of the irrigated tracts,
and the personal advantages secured
by members of tho board for them
selves and friends. These rumors
connect Governor Brady with the
transactions In such a manner that
he Is placed In position where an
explanation satisfactory to the criti-
cal public must be made. 1t. will not
satisfy the people for his string OF
newspapers, the American Falls
Press. the Capital News at Boise, the
Weiser Signal and Occur d'AIene
Journal to froth at the mouth and
try to cover up the scandal, because
they are his mouthpieces and say
what he dictates. as his interest In
them gives him the right to do. We
hope that Governor Brady may be
able to satisfactorily explain the
charges against the state land board.
OF which he is the head, and as gov
ernor OF the state he owes 1t to his
position and to the people to clear
the matter up. The people will not
stand for official corruption and party
leaders cannot afEord to attempt to
cover 1t up. The truth must come out
and thorough airing of the condi-
tiohs be given to the public. The
people are not In mood to accept
withdrawing. and 1t is we'll that the
exposure came before the date of the
primaries.

Those who oppose the water works
bonds say that they favor building a
new plant, Their argument Is not
good for several reasons: The tax
able valuation Of the city will not
permit bond issue of over $3.50, 600
for that purpose and a new system
cannot be installed for less than
$25O,000. The Kootenai Power com.
pany has control OF the electric pow
er supplied to the city on a contract
with the Washington Water Power
company and power for the water
system may be purchased for $2SO q
month from this company. Should
the city build new plant the old
company would continue to use this
power and compel the city to use
steam, which would mean at least
fifteen cords of wood a day for fuel,
or 450 cords a month which, at 81
cord. would cost $1,000 month,
On this item alone the cost OF rum
ming would be so great as to permit
the Consumers company to sell water
at price that would bankrupt the
city to compete with 1t, and no one
viii be reckless enough TO claim tina,
people Will pay the city more for
water than they would private
company. In addition to this cost
for fuel It would be necessary to EN-,
ploy two extra engineers and tive
extra fremen to run the plant. The
city would have the competition OF
the old company and Its municipal
plant might be the cause of bank
ruptey. The question is municipal
ownership now or not for many year,
to come Do not be deceived by falss
statements. You vote Monday for OIL
against municinal ownership. Tha
is the only Question to decide

For what purpose Is Governor
Brady securing a string Of newspa-
pers covering the whole state? He
starts with the American Falls Press,
published in south eastern Idaho. The
Boise section is covered by the Capt.
tai News and southwestern Idaho By
the Weiser Signal. He has acquired
control OF the Occur d'Alene Journal
to be used as his northern Idaho or
gan. Personal political organs pub
lished for the purpose of promoting
the ambitions OF politician usually
bring disaster to their promoter and
in this case Governor Brady will meet
with the fate that has befell many
others who have attempted to build
up a personal political machine
through a string OF newspapers per
sonally controlled. These newspapers
are antagonistic to every newspaper
and every person who does not fall
into line and support the machine

Dollar has signed a statement which
has been printed and circulated as an
argument against the purchase Of the
plant by the city in which 1t is stated
that the plant is worth only $1,000,
or one-half the price asked by the
majority of the stockholders. II this
is true why is he opposing the sale
which would net him $1.34 a share
on his stock? Mr.. Dollar is too good
financIer to be caught that way.
From a business standpoint he OPP
poses the sale.

Engineers Vote Strike

Chicago, ILL.,, December 10.-The
brotherhood OF Railroad Engineers
will present it's strike ultimatum
to the Railroad Managers Associ-
alton Monday backed by the APP
proval of more than 95 per cent
of the $4,000 engineers who are
members, according to Warren 8.
Stone, president of the brother
hood today.
The last group of returns on the
! strike vote wer counted today
and while the actual figures were
withheld by the engineers, Mr..
Stone said the strike sentiment
was stronger than he had expect
! ed.
After months of negotiations, the
demands of the engineers now are
some 7 per cent higher than the
railroad managers are willing to
grant. Monday, according to Mr..
Stone, the result of the recent
strike vote will be shown the rail-
managers and the ulimatum deliv-
cred.
If the demands are not acceded
to a strike that will close the
throttle of every railroad locomo-
tive west, south and north OF
Chicago, may be called within five
Lhours, it was intimated.
